    Ace Enders from The Early November

    Ace Enders from The Early November

    Happy to have the incredibly prolific indie/emo musician Ace Enders on the pod this week! He is the main singer/songwriter for The Early November and let's be honest, if you grew up in the 2000's you know that already. Ace is a open and honest human and he shows that here as we get very introspective about his thoughts on nostalgia, ego and things coming naturally to people. The Early November just released a new LP on Pure Noise Records so go listen to that right after you finish this episode.

    Bart Balboa from Birds In Row

    Bart Balboa from Birds In Row

    Viva la Birds In Row! We are lucky to go international here with Bart Balboa, the lead vocalist and guitarist from French screamo/hardcore/metal/awesome band Birds In Row. We discuss his life growing up in the rural French countryside, where his interest in politics began and how he got involved in being a tattoo artist. It's a great look into how band life operates internationally and the differences in our particular scenes.

    Brett Campbell from Pallbearer

    Brett Campbell from Pallbearer

    So incredibly stoked to welcome Brett Campbell from Pallbearer which is one of my favorite bands doing this style right now. It's melodic, it's doom, it's everything you could want from heavy music and I had to bounce around his brain to be able to find out more. We discuss the Little Rock scene, being a technical player and finding your way. He's an introspective and self depreciating dude which made for a fun discussion.

    Kevin Baker from The Hope Conspiracy

    Kevin Baker from The Hope Conspiracy

    Welcome back to The Hope Conspiracy and to celebrate their new LP that just hit, we had the vocalist Kevin Baker on the show. He's always been a somewhat mythic figure so was happy to be able to ask him questions about his love of hockey, 90's metalcore and coming up in the Boston scene. Despite his nihilistic music, Kevin is a damn sweetheart and had a lot of fun. We also touch on his other bands like Piecemeal, All Pigs Must Die and the often overlooked, Bars. Enjoy the discussion!

    Fred Armisen, comedian & Trenchmouth

    Fred Armisen, comedian & Trenchmouth

    Anytime I get a guest that is connected to punk/hardcore/indie rock, but isn't immediately obvious that they are involved is my sweet spot. You know Fred Armisen, he's been on Saturday Night Live, a creator/actor on Portlandia and frankly, so much more but were you aware of his deep roots within punk/hardcore/indie rock? It's absolutely there and we get into it plus, I am able to pick his brain about the iconic "Crisis Of Conformity" sketch on SNL as well as his band Trenchmouth. It's my pleasure to bring this discussion to you and get to know Fred that much better.

    Aaron Melnick from Integrity and Nuclae

    Aaron Melnick from Integrity and Nuclae

    "SYSTEMS OVERLOADED, FEAR ENVELOPS ME" 
    You know his tone, you know his music, now get to know the man behind all of that in the form of Aaron Melnick. He played guitar for Integrity during their formative years, started In Cold Blood and has just dropped a mind-blowing solo record entitled Nuclae. He's a very thoughtful and soft spoken guy so we peel back some of the layers and get to know his love for sci-fi, some early Integrity stories and the process of writing a solo record. Cleveland hardcore fans take notice.
