Chris Otepka of Troubled Hubble. Troubled Hubble is a new-to-me band that just reissued their wonderful 2005 album Making Beds in a Burning House. This conversation came about because of Jim Hanke whose work on his podcast Vinyl Emergency is an inspiration to me and The Marinade. When Jim speaks, I listen and I am so glad I did. Troubled Hubble is one of those bands that would have been among my favorites had they graced my ears at the time of Making Beds in a Burning House’s release. A great sense of melody. A little nerdy. A band that slalom’s through genre. Exactly the kind of thing I was devouring in 2005.

Better late than never. I’m grateful this record came into my life and for the opportunity to connect with Chris.
