Mario Radetzky (Blackout Problems) Aug 03, 2021

Show notes

Episode 280 - Europe, here we come! Mario Radetzky of (awesome) German Contemporary-Political-Post-Punk-Hardcore band Blackout Problems joins the show! Although Mario comes from a small village in Austria, that didn't stop him from discovering North American post-hardcore band and punk ethics which led him to form Blackout Problems in Munich, Germany in 2012. Since then, the band has signed to a major label to spread their message of sustainability, R.E.S.P.E.C.T. and L.O.V.E. to audiences all over Europe. Now, with a new album reaching even more listeners, Blackout Problems is ready to go even further. Don't miss this interview and the incredible music they are making!

ERRA (JT Cavey and Jesse Cash) with guest co-host Mike Howell Jun 23, 2021

Show notes

Episode 276: Four dudes in the booth! This week we have a very special episode with BOTH frontman of Erra - JT and Jesse - AND New Noise's own Mike Howell who happens to be a giant fan of the band. We discuss their new self titled album (one of the best albums so far this year), the importance of lyrics in metalcore but how little they are thought about in the genre, the difficulty of livestreams, and Erra being criminally underrated ... and how that's all about to change.

Bryan Kuznitz (Fame on Fire) Jun 15, 2021

Show notes

They're NOT a cover band! Here is Bryan from Fame on Fire with one of the most honest interviews we have ever had on this show. Bryan talks about their start and unlikely success through cover songs, and switching to originals for their new album "Levels". Some of the other topics discussed include: Using Autotune live, backing tracks, signing or not signing to label, the power of TikTok, and using cover songs to propel your band. This is super compelling.
