    Why Rising Insane Took a Stance Against The Way of the World Today on New Album "Deathrace"

    What is it about the world today that has us less invested in everything that we do? We pass on music after 10 seconds just because the intro to one song was odd, and then never listen to that band again. We record an entire concert on our phones and never look up, failing to live in the moment. We do everything for social media, and are beholden to an algorithm we dont understand. It wont be until the individual stands up for him/herself and says no more. If anything since the start of the 2020's has shown us, this has to be the case. But, how do we speak up and stand against the norm? Well, here is an idea. Sven from the German metalcore band Rising Insane is back on the Chord Progression Podcast once again with the band's newest album "Deathrace" available August 21st. Join us for the deep dive into the idea of the album as we talk about: - How Rising Insane was able to add the features they did on their songs to enhance the already created versions, and how they were able to be more experimental with modern riffs while still holding true to the styles that they grew up on. - The meaning of the album "Deathrace" and how it is a critique of the world since the beginning of the 2020s, a commentary that could be seen as political for a non-political band. - Why we, as a society, have become less invested & less involved in the lives we lead based on the the world focus around AI, social media algorithms, and content that is rotting our brains from the inside out. A fun album and conversation that also takes a powerful turn. Tap the subscribe button for more episodes like this.

    Why Australian Metalcore Band Ocean Sleeper Took 7 Years to Make New Album "Peace When I'm Dead"

    If we think back to the earliest days of recorded music being sent out massively to the public (think the 1950s), artists would release music left and right to try and maximize the amount of money they could make. Elvis Presley released 24 albums and 38 EPs over the course of 21 years, recording many covers and songs written by other people (no disrespect, just a fact). Today, it is a little different. Quality is at the forefront in a world where a song can be forgotten in 5 seconds thanks to the world of streaming. So quality, exploration, and an understanding of an individual sound needs to be taken more seriously. So for an Australian metalcore band to be releasing their 2nd album 7 years after their debut, you can understand why. But, they didnt stop growing. Ionei from the Australian metalcore band Ocean Sleeper joins the Chord Progression Podcast today with the band's new album "Peace When I'm Dead" releasing on August 21st. Join us for a great hour as we talk about: - Why Ocean Sleeper took 7 years to record a new album following up their debut 'Don't Leave Me This Way", but kept growing as a band, & how "Peace When I'm Dead" could ahve been 2 albums, but correct decisions and self producing the music kept it as one. - Why artists are caring more about the quality of the music and exploring where their sound could go contributes to longer release gaps, prior to pressures of the past of pumping out music as fast as you can for profit. - Ocean Sleeper focusing less on an "industrial" soudn to the album while also exploring beyond the poppier and happier songs from the past EPs. This is a fantastic conversation and Australian metalcore never disappoints. Tap the subscribe button for many more like this.

    If Not For Me Explores Changing Emotional Perception on New Album "Where The Light Begins to Fade"

    Artists that we have followed for years on the podcast continue to grow to success that most never thought they would get. And we love to not only show how far they have gotten, but how much more they still have left to go. It is all based on a commitment to making the best music, and a willingness to make the sacrifices to get there. There is a band that we interviewed all the way back in 2021 that many never knew of. Now, you have heard them all over Octane, have seen them play live supporting mainstay artists in modern metalcore like Electric Callby & Catch Your Breath, and there is no signs of stopping. Now with album number 3 about to release, what do they have in store for us? Patrick and Cody from the modern metalcore band If Not For Me return to the Chord Progression Podcast for the 4th time as the band is set to release their 3rd album "Where The Light Begins To Fade" on August 14th. With the new album releasing, we get into it with the band by talking about: - The non-stop touring, writing, and growth If Not For Me has done since the release of "Everything You Wanted" in 2024, and the sacrifices that the members of the band made in order to achieve their goals. - What new ideas and musical stylings did If Not For Me work with and discover on "Where The Light Begins To Fade," to expand the boundaries of higher pitched electronics & heavier metalcore fills. - How the lack of a theme allowed "Where The Light Begins To Fade" to be written around the massive amount of change and understanding reflection the band went through over the past 2 years. This is always fun, and 750 episodes later, we are still going strong. Hit the subscribe button soo that we can get to 1000 episodes with you on board.

    Why Joyous Wolf Took 7 Years to Make The Debut Album "In Between" | A Case for Authentic Rock Music

    Being an original rock band in 2026 is no easy feat like it once was. Rock music has an authenticity that could be felt through and through in the past, but now in the days of social media, it is a lot harder to let the authenticity shine when too many artists are pleasing social media & streaming algorithms. This rock band was on the podcast during the pandemic. It has been over 6 years of waiting for new music. Now we are getting it, and we not only get to show you why it has a sense of authenticity to it, but it creates a sense of personal "familiar" over nostalgia. Blake from the California rock band Joyous Wolf joins the Chord Progression Podcast as their brand new album "In Between" is set to release on August 21st. Join us as we get into the music on this episode as we talk about: - Why it took 7 years for Joyous Wolf to release their debut album following the release of their debut EP back in 2019, with reasons including heavy touring, the pandemic, and authentically connecting to their rock sound. - The shadow of relevancey that social media algorithms for musicians to always chase, but why the focus is on sound quality for Joyous Wolf, and that consisitency allows the band to stand out with their own brand. - "In Between," the rock music sense of familiar that it creates, and how Joyous Wolf learned that song dynamics have a dimmer switch throughout the song, not an on/off button.

    How Xandria Builds the Perfect Concert Setlist with the Release of New Album "Eclipse"

    Building a setlist for your band is not an easy thing to do correctly and successfully. There are so many different factors at play from the size of the crowd, the type of venue you are playing, the geographic location that you are playing in, and more. But there is one thing more important than others, understanding the emotion of your own music. As a musician on stage, you are the one playing, and your music is envoking different emotions in fans. Ballads bring down the energy and make people feel more emotional. Anthems bring the fans together. Energetic and uptempo songs get people moving and up the energy in the room. You are the conductor, but you have to understand how your music drives people to create the greatest experience possible. Ambre from the German symphonic metal band Xandria joins the Chord Progression Podcast today. The band's brand new album "Eclipse" releases on August 7th, and we go into the live stage on this one. On this episode, we talk about: - Why Xandria's released singles off of "Eclipse" worked live with an approach to cinematic grandure to their symphonic metal, and why some singles that artists release dont work out live but are powerhouses when fans listen solo. - How building the best setlist for a live show depends on many factors like crowd size, crowd makeup, venue style, geographic location, and is best discovered by trial & error to determine the proper emotional control of a crowd. - The reason why artist's typically only play their hits at festivals, due to the need of casting a wide net and provide the best energy for a crowd of differing levels of interest.

    Dissecting Sorry X's Debut Album "Exes": Why an Artist's Debut Album Needs to Be a Launching Pad

    The debut album for an artist is more important than some artists realize, but not for the reason you think. Most people think that the debut album is meant to show us the true sound of the artist. If you end up like Linkin Park with Hybrid Theory, then yes that assumption is correct. But if you don't end up like Linkin Park, then is it considered a failure of a debut? That is where the idea is skewed. The debut isn't meant to be an artist's fully understood sound and that is it. It is meant to be a benchmark of where the artist is starting, and the discovery of potential of where they can go. If we think about it like that, debut albums can be so much more successful. Alexa from Sorry X rejoins the podcast once again with the release of her debut album, Exes, out now. With the debut album in focus, we talk about: - Discovering what artists should learn from writing their debut album, that it is a setup for a foundation of their sound to grow and not the quintessential sound they must stick to, while not staying rigid to their own expected timelines. - The fan reaction to "Exes" & Alexa feeling like she is finally building towards a community of fans & supporters. - Learning that your own vulnerability as an artist, for the betterment of your own mental health and success in your writing.

    Maria from Future Palace Deep Dives New Album "Resurgence" & It's Focus On Healing & Doing Better

    It has been incredible following along with Future Palace ever since the release of their album "Run" in 2022. We have seen them headline tours throughout Europe, open for Electric Callboy, release the album "Distortion" in 2024, all while tackling topics like imposter syndrome and mental health issues. This band is one of our favorites we have ever discovered here. So why are we doing an intro like this? Does that mean there is more new music coming from this great band? And what is the next step in the journey for Future Palace compared to their first 3 albums? Let's find out. Maria from Future Palace returns to the Chord Progression Podcast for a 3rd time as the band is set to release their 4th album "Resurgence" on July 31st. Join us for an hour with Maria as we discuss: - Future Palace headlining a tour in North America in 2025, and the incredible response mixed with positive energy that the band experienced from US and Canada fans. - How AI and bad business practices have dragged down artist ambitions over time, but how musical unpredictablity and human connection still inspire artists to this day. - The new album "Resurgence" and how it focuses more on healing, with a positive emotional connotation, compared to the previous albums focusing on more emotional processing with darker vibes. -"Tidal Wave", the nervousness of releasing such a vulnerable ballad, but why it is so well done.
