Here is the list of all of the audible references that would have appeared in Anorak’s Almanac. They are listed below by Category, from individual songs, podcasts, and albums.

As articles and reviews get written about the reference (and playlists get made on Spotify by yours truly) then the title will turn into a link for you to follow to that review or article! The links below will jump you to each category since the number of references is not a long as other categories in types of references, and while it doesn’t necessarily seem like a long list it really is since some of the bands have many, many albums…. and may be added to in the future.
