A2G21 - Walking Promoters to the ATM Jun 19, 2018

Show notes

The mental poverty of broken phone screens. Skrewdriver guilt. Is it worth a band's time to chase cool? Is Post Malone the new Killing Time? Is playing fests for pure radio rock crowds worth it for a subculture band? DIY promoters vs The Fatcats. Revelation vs Victory... which has more Ws? Which carries more Ls?

New (and newish) music from A TON of bands. We land on mostly good material, though a couple bunk recordings. Democore proves to be alive and well(?). Break out the Tostitos. It's a listening party.

A2G22 - The Overthinking Episode Jun 05, 2018

Show notes

Axe To Grind goes on a field trip to see what a dorm room looks like in 2018. Not entirely different from the 90’s. While in room 1605 at Warren Towers, we discuss body image issues, assault in all forms, straight edge, group think, and a bunch of other esoteric stuff. We even touch on some music at the very end.

Show notes

In this, the first installment of our Yearbook series, we explore the good the bad and the ugly of 2010. A weird transition year with a lot thriving and some stuff dying. Provided: (hot?) takes and some indisputable realities. Also covered: New Age Anniversary Fest, the state of Alaska, Spotify, and guns. We're accidentally joined by Mike Abrusci of https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/a-little-time/id1230730210?mt=2 and (in the form of an off-mic yelling) Eric Wilson of https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/wrestling-cinema/id1245858726?mt=2

One normal host and two guest hosts. What could possibly go wrong? Bob is joined for a lovely afternoon by Riley from Power Trip and Andrew from Police Line / Overnight Drive to discuss screenprinting shops, Texas, Queensrÿche, bandwagons and some other nonsense. Patrick was in Alaska and Tom has something called “a job.” Check out Overnight Drive Podcast on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/overnight-drive/id586028564?mt=2

A2G16 - Secrets of the Label World / Shirtless Bug MFers May 02, 2018

Show notes

Labels. How do those work? But before all that, we talk Hatebreed on a boat, touring with rappers, bands that no kids care about but managers back hard, Sixpence None the Richer, Hardcore Tinder, clickbait, and we answer the question "is Patrick too masculine?"

A2G15 - New Music Episode / No Punk Cops Apr 26, 2018

Show notes

We talk new music. Ecostrike; Krimewatch; Day By Day; Fiddlehead; Hirs Collective; Trail of Lies. Everybody's got records coming out and none of them can make Patrick happy. Tom and Bob were in better moods and found a lot to like. Also discussed were the Sound & Fury lineup, that NPR piece on ICE, and Tom's war on emojis.
