100 Words Or Less: The Podcast

Praise. 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.

Cave In are legendary. I don't use that word lightly but very few bands have been able to sustain their place in the music scene, evolve sonically and continue to put out some of their best material to date. That being said, I had to chat with Adam McGrath to discuss his life in the Merrimack Valley hardcore scene, early tour stories and being stubborn. It's an all encompassing discussion that I love to have and hope you enjoy!

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.

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.

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!

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.

If Patrick and his band don't bring you a smile, I don't know what to do to help you but I have faith in you. I brought Patrick on the show to discuss his south OC upbringing, ska zines and how Limbeck sat squarely at the intersection of being "too punk for country and too country for punk".

Post rock. Relapse. NASCAR? All of these things are covered in today's pod with the dude, Bobby Markos from Cloakroom. I love this band's blend of Hum, meets stoner rock meets Isis.
