    Chris Kelly of Hillhaven: Why "Dead Doesn't Hurt" & The Cyclical Nature of Music Genre Comebacks

    Since the resurrgence of rock and metal back into the mainstream since 2020, we have seen a massive amount of experimentation in the genres. But one thing we are seeing is a large number of bands find common influences in the style of nu metal. Music is cyclical, where genres that were once popular are making their return, influencing modern bands to create a new & evolved sound. Has this happened in the past? Will this happen in the future? Will the internet be a great catalyst of all of this? Yes. Chris Kelly from the metalcore band Hillhaven joins the Chord Progresion Podcast with more new music out, including the newest single "Dead Doesn't Hurt" out now. On this episode, we talk about: - The update from Hillhaven since 2024, why the lineup is now stabilized following the depatrue of other members due to other band commitments, and what will happen with upcoming live shows. - Cyclical nature of trends and music, analyizing why nu metal has resurged in popularity in both metalcore & modern metal, as well as why emo, pop punk, and butt rock influences of the 2000's very likely are next. - "Dead Doesn't Hurt" and the message of betrayal at the heart of the song, coupled with forgiving in order to move on so dead moments and emotions no longer hurt you. Both insightful and deep, just the way we like these conversations. Tap the subscribe button for a whole lot more coming your way.

    Your Deep Dive into Siamese's New Album "dissolution": How To Write Music Free of Outside Pressure

    Musicians and artists, especially early on, have to deal with two major factors that could derail their creative mentality. Those factors being the pressures to make the project financially successful, as well as mentally being able to process negativity on social media. Success in handling these two factors can lead a band to success. Failure, could destroy the project. Success means finding happiness and a free flowing nature in the songwriting process. It allows music creation to be the thing that drives you, not the obligation of a 9-5 job that so many artists revile. Mirza from the Danish alt metal band Siamese joins the Chord Progression Podcast as the band is set to release their 8th album, dissolution, on June 26th. Join us for a great conversation as we talk about: - Why different external pressures hinder the creativity in the musicial world, and finding ways to relieve those pressures, especially financial pressures, helps ease the creative process. - Dealing with social media negativity in a band, and the strategies Siamese used to not be impacted by it. - How a sense of urgence and drive created the new album, dissolution, with all band members being fully involved in the writing process. A great band and a great album to end the first half of 2026. Hit the subscribe button as we have plenty more coming in the second half.

    The Secret to Finding Your Sound as a Musician, the Punk Rock Way with Trash N' Privilege

    There is a great number of younger musicians out there that are struggling to find their style and find their sound. It could be because they are unsure what sound connects with them, could be that their skillset doesn't match up with the style of music they want to create, or they havent found the collection of people to help bring that sound to life. It is something almost every musician goes through, and sometimes it takes a while for artists to find that sound. What if we told you that there is an artist in the punk rock world that fits all 3? Great story for inspiration right? Steve from the California punk rock band Trash N' Privilege joins the Chord Progression Podcast as the band recently released their Flush EP last week. Join us for this punk rock episode as we talk about: - Why Trash N' Privilege went more gritty and dirty with their overall tone of punk rock to create more of a throwback and rough punk rock feel on the new Flush EP. - The positive reverb of the pandemic, where shifting musical focus became forced for the time, but now is fully embraced all across rock and metal. - Songwriting and musical advice for all young musicians out there, to either increase your skillset to match the sound you want to create, or use your internal inspiration to create a sound for yourself within the limits of your skillset.

    How Annelida Wrote an EP Live on Twitch & VYB: Using Streaming to Show Music Creation Process

    Plenty of musicians have taken to streaming ever since the COVID-19 pandemic, as a way to deliver their music and their experience through the internet that still has some form of consistent connection to the fans. We have seen Ronnie Radke in Falling in Reverse, Matt Heafy in Trivium, Ryan Kirby in Fit For A King, and many more do something like this. But have they ever live streamed the album creation process? It is a way for the fans to get a first hand look at how an artist would make a song, how a song evolves from beginning to end, and what tools might be used to create all of this. It is something that we really never see anyone else do, but we found an artist that is doing just that. Kevin from the experimental band Annelida joins the Chord Progression Podcast today. After Kevin streamed the writing and song creation process for the band's Unencumbered EP in March of 2026, we dive into this episode with: - How Annelida used livestreaming on Twitch and VYB to show the songwriting process, giving people a more in depth look to the songwriting process & how a song changes over time. - The reason why Annelida streams on multiple platforms all at once with the creation process & with live shows, to continue giving access and connection to their fans. - Why Annelida is considered "experimental metal" to be the weird band on Manic Kat Records, and not ever have the pressure to fit in.

    Why Monument of a Memory Stopped Following Metal Purist Mentality to Create Most Authentic Music Yet

    Can rock and metal be considered the most authentic genres in music today? Think about it. We are seeing more and more artists with the freedom to experiment and try new things previously considered taboo, that has caused some bands to massively break through pop culture. Pop music is based off of the popular formulas, popular hip hop has a similar flow and beat in all popular songs, modern county is... well about trucks and beer. So how do rock and metal artists now continue to make more creative music that has the connection to so much more authenticity compared to other genres? Well, its based on how they write, and the freedom that they can. Dylan and Eren from the metalcore band Monument of a Memory join the Chord Progression Podcast today. With new music like the single "All We Made" released now and more new music for a new album coming so you can get into the band with us as we talk about: - New music coming from Monument of a Memory and writing that music through a process of vocal isolation from the instrumentals, and ensuring that when writing music, no idea is off the table. - The best music being yet to come on the new album following the releases of "All We Made" and "Hit The Floor", by exploring new territory inside of their heavier style. - Why it was important for them to break free from the elitist and purist ideals of metal & metalcore that they followed as younger men, allowing the band to make their best music now.

    Kingdom Collapse Announces New Album "Survivor": Modern Hard Rock is Alive and Well (Part 1)

    The second band we ever interviewed on the Chord Progression Podcast back in 2019, and the band that has been a guest on the podcast the most, is back once again. 7 years later, we have seen them grow to play alongside some great artists like From Ashes to New, Nothing More, and Three Days Grace. But one question was on our mind... when are we going to get that album? Well an announcement was made, and a request was issued. Hard rock never dies, and they continue to rise. You can never forget about their unbreakable spirit, and we are here to make sure you are all into it. Jonathan and Aaron from the hard rock band Kingdom Collapse return to the Chord Progression Podcast for the first time since our 500th episode. The band recently announced their new album "Survivor" releasing on October 30th. Join us as we talk about: - The band signing with Mascot Records, finding a lable that was going to let Kingdom Collapse be themselves & get behind the Unbreakable spirit, instead of trying to have them fit into a trend. - The titular single "Survivor," getting back on radio play with both Sirius XM Octane as well as FM radio, and still evoking the Unbreakable spirit even in the face of life's most challenging times. - Why the band will always put the songs first above anything else, in a world where the industry seems to be relying more on image than music. Something Kingdom Collapse is happy they don't fit in on. - Joe Alfano, and his legacy. Now you might be thinking, "you can't go into the full album this early, and in only 41 minutes!" Well you are right. Be sure to hit that subscribe button because part 2 is coming your way in October, and we are going to deep dive the entire album.

    A Static Lullaby Returns After 17 Years & Why the Post-Hardcore Band Came Back with a Live Album

    Everyone loves a good comeback story. Whether it is sports, entertainment, or music (like we are into), we all want to see our favorites return and continue to provide us with the moments and memories that made us fall in love with them in the first place. But if there is a comeback happening after 17 years, how should that be done? A full reunion tour? A brand new album to show the what people have missed out on in those 17 years? Rerecording their most famous album as a way to remind friends "we are back"? Well, in 2026, there is a new way that it has to be done... the live album of that famous album. Joe, Dan, and Kyler from the post-hardcore band A Static Lullaby join the Chord Progression Podcast as they are back after 17 years. With their live album return of their most famous album "...And Don't Forget to Breathe" now out, we dive into the band's return as we talk about: - Why A Static Lullaby decided to return with a live version of "...And Don't Forget to Breathe" compared to brand new music or a rerecording of the album, to not tarnish the legacy of the original. - Fighting labels and other entities to get their music back, from groups buying the rights to their music and selling physical copies back to the band at a higher margin. - A teaser of the brand new music that A Static Lullaby is going to be releasing, bridging the gap from their last album in 2009 to what they would be creating today, had they never stopped.
