100 Words Or Less: The Podcast

We welcome Stin from Chat Pile onto the podcast this week for a few reasons. One of them being that their new record absolutely RIPS and you should listen to it now, it's called "Cool World" out on Flesner Recordings. Another reason is that he's an incredibly thoughtful and insightful human being about what art he's creating as well as the fact that ANYONE is paying attention to his band is a privilege. We discuss the best job he's ever had, making "art" for a living and what most people perceive touring to be (ie: tour buses). Listen to the Official Outbreak Podcast here (executive produced by yours truly) Weekly Recommendation PlaylistSubscribe to the podcast on YouTubeRockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

One of the hardest working bands in the scene right now, we have Katerina from Escuela Grind on the pod this week. The band just released their new LP and is on the path to working even harder than they have before but we discuss the lack of location for the band, her experience as an only child and internet opinions. She's an insightful human and was happy to dig in deep with her!  Listen to the Official Outbreak Podcast here (executive produced by yours truly)  Weekly Recommendation Playlist Visit MaddVintage for all the latest awesome punk, hardcore, metal and rock shirts you could shake a stick at!  Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

Josh is a friend. Josh has created a ton of great music with bands like Neil Perry, Hot Cross, Joshua Fit For Battle and much more. Josh also had a pretty intense journey the last few years to where he didn't know if he was ever going to be able to play guitar again. We get into it all and discuss New Jersey greats, short song life and a whole host of other things. I am glad he is still here with us, and am so happy to share this conversation with you.  Listen to the Official Outbreak Podcast here (executive produced by yours truly)  Weekly Recommendation Playlist Visit MaddVintage for all the latest awesome punk, hardcore, metal and rock shirts you could shake a stick at!  Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

Thrilled to welcome a post-rock/prog musician, Rory Friers onto the show. He plays in the band And So I Watch You From Afar and hails from Ireland. A lot of cool and unique things going on with his band and music so I had to bug him while he was over here in the US on tour with Caspian. We got into the Ireland scene, his work in scoring music for films as well as his advice on where I should start with prog-rock. A good "bloke" as they say overseas and hope you enjoy!  Listen to the Official Outbreak Podcast here (executive produced by yours truly)  Weekly Recommendation Playlist Visit MaddVintage for all the latest awesome punk, hardcore, metal and rock shirts you could shake a stick at!  The Way of the Vegan Meathead is on sale now as an audiobook for all your vegan protein/weightlifting advice!

12 Years Baby! We've come a long way and thanks for listening now, then and )hopefully)  Very proud to welcome the first OSCAR winner on the podcast in the form of Cord Jefferson. He is the director/writer of the film American Fiction which won the award for "Best Adapted Screenplay" and when I saw him in a Propagandhi shirt, I HAD to have him on the podcast. We hung out in his living room and chopped it up over an hour about his time in Tuscon, AZ, his Mount Rushmore punk/hardcore bands and the time he went out with The Bled on Warped Tour for a week. This is a crucial chat and hope you enjoy!  Listen to the Official Outbreak Podcast here (executive produced by yours truly)  Weekly Recommendation Playlist Theme Song by Tapestry Gold Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

Man, I love my job. I get to bring you these great discussions with people who are creating some incredible art and today, we have a big one.  Duane Denison is the guitarist from noise rock pioneers, The Jesus Lizard. They are back with a newly released LP and aren't shying away from being the charming weirdos they are. Duane and I discuss the concept of selling out, getting a scholarship for playing guitar (!) and working in a library. Duane is very open and honest in his approach to music and he brought that same spirit to our discussion.  Listen to the Official Outbreak Podcast here (executive produced by yours truly)  Weekly Recommendation Playlist Theme Song by Tapestry Gold Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

Beyond stoked to bring you this discussion with Matthew Wainwright from Cold Gawd to the pod waves this week. I became quickly obsessed with their new full length ("I'll Drown on this Earth") on Dais Records and wanted to know more about this very nuanced band that pulls from shoegaze, punk, hardcore and many other places. We discuss growing up in the Inland Empire, goosebump inducing moments and social media shoegaze.

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.
