Jonah and I have circled the same group of friends for many years, but this was the first time we got a chance to actually sit down and get to know each other! Jonah plays guitar in the awesome band United Nations https://open.spotify.com/artist/5EFC6Vv9y6UAgOz97gxOEj?si=4BT6I7GsTsiQvBp6MJv_1g (with friend of the show Geoff Rickley), a co-host of a fun podcast with his sister called "How Did We Get Weird? https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-did-we-get-weird-with-vanessa-bayer-and-jonah-bayer/id1586365658" and has been a music writer for Alternative Press and Fuse's "Steven's Untitled Rock Show https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1087371/". Needless to say, he's been around and I was happy to dig into Cleveland hardcore, zine writing and of course, podcasting. Enjoy!

Welcome to another exciting episode of the podcast, this time with my good friend Vique Martin who is a music industry veteran who has spent her time working behind the scenes at labels like Revelation Records https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=revelation+records&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 and currently at Pirates Press Records https://piratespressrecords.com. She also has put out records and zines under the name Simba Records & Zine https://www.instagram.com/simba_records_and_zine/?hl=en. In short, she's a lifer and I was happy to have this discussion with her. We talked about her experience being raised in the UK, loss and building confidence.

The very last in our installment of live podcasts that I did at the almighty Outbreak Fest in June of 2022 in front of a live audience. These two chats were awesome and of course, with great people involved in independent music. The first one is with Mat Kerekes from Citizen https://open.spotify.com/artist/0znuUIjvP0LXEslfaq0Nor?si=KDmyqv6lQmSJh8accOTniQ in which we discuss video games, working out and UK audiences. Then, I chat with Isa Holliday from Slow Crush https://open.spotify.com/artist/3nOrhUtscermNwmfBQRZZv?si=n6_py60JR16AS5RYpBx9FQ as they were wrapping up a whirlwind world tour that was so ambitious I admired it from afar. We got into her background, why they love guitar pedals and a lot more.

Early 2000's emo/post-hardcore will never die! While nostalgia is a powerful drug, Ben and his band Armor For Sleep https://open.spotify.com/artist/7eSbps3Uha3MMBNWhMYa2H?si=aauJFkZVQ5CWUWBV01lYzA don't just rest on their laurels, they release a killer new LP https://open.spotify.com/album/5YXJU9inztWdaiENCW02pg?si=w6m5F8MdQ4ySVZ_Et_MPLw and play shows around it.

"Like Hoobastank...but doesn't suck" are some immortal words a friend of mine said about Anberlin https://open.spotify.com/artist/5v61OSg53KaQxGMpErkBNp?si=FNREjEecR964z38jGopT8Q and I will never forget that. I was pleased as punch to tell Stephen that over our internet connection conversation (to be clear, I like Hoobastank). We get in deep with the feeling of being an outcast, the difference between "shows" and "concerts" and the business side of music. It's a wide ranging discussion and think you will find some value in here. Enjoy!

Rise and Fall https://open.spotify.com/artist/6WBdTWCLl5gBh9Z0gpJvNJ?si=PGyjp90KTfqesN-XCwiScA is an often overlooked, but incredibly important band to the punk and hardcore scene not only in the US but worldwide. Hailing from Belgium (you can laugh at my outro to this episode saying how much I love Swedish hardcore and then after the fact LOL'ing but deciding to leave it in), Bjorn Dossche sang for the band and I had to bring him on the show. We discussed a lot of things including the Belgian hardcore scene, US touring and keeping things comfortable. Let's get it!

One of my favorite skaters of all time, Geoff Rowley https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwiflO_VoaT6AhX-LUQIHRfRAAwQFnoECA4QAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fgeoffrowley%2F%3Fhl%3Den&usg=AOvVaw2Hl-LBQ4FNon8X9_PLo5v7, is on the show this week. To say I am thrilled is an understatement. His parts in legendary skate videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czoZ9EBahXQ like 411 and others not only got me stoked on his talent but the music he chose was always a bit different and always hit the punk/hardcore/metal side of things real hard. I knew his affinity for the music runs deep, but how deep I didn't know until now. We discuss his feelings around being a video game character, Discord Records and so much more. Enjoy the listen!

HAPPY 10 YEARS TO THE PODCAST! All hyperbole aside, this podcast has changed my life for the better and thanks for coming along this journey and love letter to independent music. We make it VERY special by having a white whale guest hanging out this week in the form of Chris Higdon from the almighty (and recently reunited) Elliott https://open.spotify.com/artist/6KkOfCQtoMpjS2qYgDxmHI?si=zGwM5QF6Tm2ms--Bypxpbw! I chased him down for the past 3 years and only recently started popping up in podcasts, so I HAD TO HAVE HIM. We talk about his past bands (Falling Forward https://open.spotify.com/artist/1RTTUGO3z47d108g51n6Gq?si=VBDqzbjoRUGtVaYG72a-pQ, Frontiers https://open.spotify.com/artist/3t3ePoJAa4VrTxoQ1tCuW4?si=L-2Mw-nCSSGgDgZTSRPzQA), dressing up at shows and being low profile.

Live From Outbreak Fest https://outbreak-fest.co.uk 2022 we have two amazing humans on this episode. First up, I have Dan Tracy from Deafheaven https://open.spotify.com/artist/4XpPveeg7RuYS3CgLo75t9?si=V7wweugzTlya8-14_oV1Kw on to discuss our shared history playing in bands, why no one talks to drummers and tour tips. Right after that, Anthony Anzaldo from Ceremony https://open.spotify.com/artist/5n3811iYeaFM01gSJMQuRH?si=jWPVDrKHTJmmbuqw-UU7mw (fresh off an airline losing his key-tar) comes in to chat about the longevity of the band, how UK audiences receive the band and playing in Cold Cave.

Let's talk print media! One of my favorite publications around is called Dscvrd Magazine https://dscvrd.co and it's editor in chief is a new friend of mine, Georgia Rawson! The magazine is celebrating it's 10 year anniversary and I wanted to pick her brain about all things journalism, supporting bands from the start and not being "afraid" of the business implications of music.

Welp, it's been close to 10 years since I had Jesse on the pod https://omny.fm/shows/100-words-or-less-the-podcast/jesse-barnett-from-stick-to-your-guns so it felt like a great time to check back in with him and look how both he and the band have grown and changed over that time. We get in depth about his conflicts on social media, the importance of his work with the community bookstore he runs called All Power Books https://allpowerbooks.org and their increased popularity in Europe. I love the guy and this conversation was special to me. Enjoy!

LIVE FROM OUTBREAK FEST 2022 We have two great chats with some UK peeps on this weeks podcast. First up is Olli Appleyard from the up and coming band Static Dress https://open.spotify.com/artist/1Lqdsv7Ff4GNq9PM3Yd0vi?si=ByTRgtWkSXqV5hwEdUKLvw who was FRESH off their performance and we joke about it up top. Olli was a great discussion. Secondly, I have Kadeem France from the post-metal (I just made this up) band Loathe https://open.spotify.com/artist/4G9wSdX0klmoHfjm9i6DLd?si=zGKWabfxTumvX4YbQQTgfA. Kadeem and I didn't know each other at all, but got along real proper and what a cool story he has. Massive thanks to the Outbreak Festival https://outbreak-fest.co.ukpeople and Simon who helped capture the audio on the stage!

Praise https://open.spotify.com/artist/5pBjhwqwoCpxGm4igqvgCi?si=6WwldTCnSv2i1sSdED7Dog. What a band! I have loved the band ever since their "Lights Went Out" LP and it's been a fun ride watching the band evolve and frankly, get better and now we are here with Andy Norton, the vocalist of Praise. We discuss taking creativity seriously, how to work with friends and writing lyrics.

LIVE FROM OUTBREAK FEST 2022, IT'S 100 WORDS OR LESS! Jokes aside, I am so pleased to bring you this chat with two heavy hitters in the hardcore scene for my first live podcast experience at the incredible Outbreak Festival in Manchester, UK. I sat down with Nate from Xibalba and Bryan from Knocked Loose to hang out and talk about touring Europe, hardcore in 2022 and so much more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


We have an absolute treat this week with the appearance of my friend Jason Mazzola on the podcast. He sang for a band called Count Me Out, currently sings for a band called Cloak/Dagger as well as the host of Where It Went Podcast (a deep dive into the Revelation Records catalog). As you can see, he's a busy dude but we found time to hang hard and discuss what it's like being podcast nerds, how amazing Chain of Strength is and trying to not be overly nostalgic. ORDER THE NEW CLOAK/DAGGER 7" HERE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


This episode is for fans of Fat Wreck, Hot Water Music and being popular in Europe. Joking aside, I am very pleased to bring you this discussion that Joe McMahon from Smoke or Fire and I had one afternoon! I had always been a fan of the band but never really knew much about their origin stories, why the band had to change their name and how they signed to Fat Wreck Chords to begin with. Listen, learn and most importantly listen to Smoke or Fire. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


Fresh back from quite a time in the UK, I couldn't take a week off because frankly...this conversation was too cool not to share immediately. John Scharbach from the defunct DC hardcore band, Give, is on the pod this week. He also runs a great publishing company entitled Shining Life Zine that you gotta check out as well. We go deep on pursing art, skateboarding and his life in the military. Peep it and enjoy! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


I am proud to bring you this very metaphysical chat with Don Devore who is the guitarist for Ink and Dagger, Frail and Collapsing Scenery (among many other projects). Ink and Dagger were huge for me personally and I celebrate their entire catalog and Frail was such a force of nature for the early screamo/hardcore scene that I was stoked Don wanted to talk about that. We go in about how chaotic the Ink and Dagger experience was, creating art at all costs and of course, Vampires. Love the discussion and I hope you do as well. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


Let's get introspective with Chris Simpson who is the vocalist for indie rock/emo stalwarts Mineral, The Gloria Record and most recently, his band Mountain Time. We go deep into his family history in the oil biz, his experience with the reunion shows with Mineral as well as being an introvert. I love all his music and hope you gain a deeper appreciation of it after this conversation. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


Post Hardcore! Screamo! Hairstylist! Our guest Adam Marino does it all and does it all well. Stoked to have him on to discuss his new band Attempt Survivors, working in the major label systems and the legendary ABC No Rio. We of course discussed his time in Saetia (we recorded this episode before the formal announcement of the reunion shows) as well. Enjoy! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


Let's get you acquainted with the man behind DAIS Records, Gibby Miller. He also sang for some great punk/hardcore bands called Panic and The Trouble (both from Boston). We dive deep into growing up in the midwest, the legend of Makeoutclub.com (he was the founder!) and of course the Boston scene. Enjoy! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


Hell yes progressive metal, we have Brett Boland who plays in Astronoid hanging with us this week. We talk about the Merrimack Valley scene in Mass, perfectionism and technical metalcore (my personal favorite). Pull up your ear and enjoy! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


The damn king of hardcore returns to the podcast after a 7 year break. Scott comes on to talk about the process of keeping a band together, soul searching during COVID and being an introvert. It's always a good time hanging out with him and this is no exception. Listen and stage dive. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


I have a treat for you, Kat Moss from Scowl comes to hang out with us today! The band has turned a lot of heads within the hardcore and punk world, so I had to have her on the show. We discuss a lot of things including her being a "horse girl", fashion and RBS (real bay shit). It's an insightful conversation and stoked to have had it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


Today is a special episode with my friend, Andrew Cannon. He’s the brand manager from Santa Cruz Skateboards as well as singing for an incredible band called Worship. We get deep and philosophical about the origin of his love for independent music, health and DNA. I am really glad we got to paint with a broad brush in this episode and hope you enjoy! This bonus episode is sponsored exclusively by 23&Me. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.


This week I have one of my favorite bass players around, Sergio Vega from Quicksand. He's an incredibly open and honest dude that has created some of the best tones in the game. We get into his musical upbringing, NYHC and the post-hardcore scene of the early 90's. We also chat about his time playing with Deftones and more! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
