Jon Lullo from Down to Earth Approach and Even If It Kills Me Podcast Sep 04, 2024

Show notes

Pleased as punch to welcome my new friend (and hopefully yours) Jon Lullo on the podcast. He sang and played guitar in Down to Earth Approach who were active in the early 2000's and on the legendary Vagrant Records in their heyday. We spoke about his experience in the band that is well documented in a new podcast called "Even If It Kills Me". The podcast is an honest and revealing look at the experience of playing in a band that did a lot of cool things, but never "made it" in the traditional sense of the term. Jon and I chat about that, the Warped Tour and so much more.

Tim Kasher from Cursive Aug 28, 2024

Show notes

We have a damn legend in the game on the pod this week in the form of Tim Kasher from Cursive! They are releasing a new LP on Run For Cover and of course, jumped at the opportunity to talk to Tim about his screenwriting career, looking back at his catalog as well as the Omaha scene growing up (a lot of 311 talk, no joke). Go spin their entire catalog for goodness sake!

James Carroll and Aaron Johnson from Flyover Fest Aug 21, 2024

Show notes

It always makes me happy when I put the shine on people who work behind the scenes at record labels, fests, photographers and a lot more that make this whole scene grow and thrive. James and Aaron run the incredible festival based in Tulsa, OK called Flyover Fest and in the past few years, has risen to prominence as one of the destinations for bands to play. We get into the origins of the festival, some do's and don'ts as well as the band they wish they could book.

Vadim Taver from This Day Forward & Chris Enriquez from On The Might of Princes Aug 14, 2024

Show notes

A rare three way podcast with two friends of the show, Vadim Taver from This Day Forward & Chris Enriquez from On the Might of Princes. Selfishly, this is to promote/celebrate our bands show on August 25 at The Bowery Ballroom but more importantly offered us a chance to speak about our experiences with each of our bands circumstances that drew us back to playing shows again, revisiting old songs and nostalgia.

Mike Mallamo from Inside, Dearly Departed and Star Harbor Aug 07, 2024

Show notes

Inside were always a mythic and mysterious band to me. I was able to see them twice here in So Cal, which was weird for a band all the way from Long Island in the late 90's. They disbanded before they left a trail of interviews about who they were and where they came from. Fortunately for all of us their music is widely available now and they just played a few reunion shows to celebrate a re-release on cassette of their recordings. I was able to connect with Mike, the vocalist of the band as well as other awesome bands like Dearly Departed and Star Harbor, over the internet one afternoon. We discussed many things including Long Island, getting clued in on bands when they toured together and drama. I love this band and I think you will too.

Dan O’Connor from Four Year Strong Jul 31, 2024

Show notes

I think one of the coolest things to watch in independent music is bands growing up and evolving their sound but still staying connected to what compelled them to create in the first place. In my opinion, Four Year Strong are one of those bands we've all watched grow up, evolve and only become better over time. Dan O'Connor has played in FYS since it's inception and on the eve of their new record getting released I had to have him on the show to discuss the perfect hardcore record, growing up and being singularly focused.

Joseph Grillo from Her Heads on Fire, Garrison Jul 24, 2024

Show notes

There's something in the water in the Merrimack Valley (a suburban area outside of Boston) and today's guest is yet another example of someone else who was raised in the cradle of that musical mecca for punk/hardcore and metal; Joseph Grillo. He played guitar for Garrison (Revelation Records) and currently fronts the band Her Heads On Fire (Iodine Recordings). Joseph is a seasoned veteran of our awesome indie music scene and we spoke of his various experiences with record labels, the need to create and a lot more.

Scott Lee, New England Metal and Hardcore Festival Returns! Jul 17, 2024

Show notes

We have everyone's favorite festival promoter on the program today, Scott Lee! The 2024 edition of New England Metal and Hardcore Festival is right around the corner so I brought him on to discuss what bands can do to make themselves noticed playing a festival, mistakes he made in the early days and how to create community. See you there!

Pedro Carrillo from Dying Wish Jul 10, 2024

Show notes

I am pleased to welcome Pedro Carrillo from Dying Wish to the show this week not only because I love his band, but he reps OC hardcore a lot by wearing a Throwdown hoodie on stage a lot...which makes me happy. Pedro and I nerd out about that, how he learned how to speak English, his passion for MMA and how he collaborates with his bandmates.
