With the recent release of Meat, Alpha Consumer stopped by The Current to perform tracks off the new record live on the Local Show.

Between songs, Alpha Consumer's Jeremy Ylvisaker, Mike Lewis and JT Bates chatted with Local Show host David Campbell about the new record, Meat, where Louie C.K. fits in and their upcoming gig at the Red Stag Block Party with Frankie Lee, Sonny Knight and the Lakers and more.

Listen to the full in-studio session to hear Alpha Consumer talk about the emotional high point of recording Meat, how they individually rated their own record and their sitcom-like songwriting on Kick Drugs Out of America.
