Zealous Musician is a podcast that takes a closer look at the music we love.
For season one, we’ll dive into music from post-hardcore and emo bands like Thrice, Underoath, A Day to Remember - Taking Back Sunday, Brand New, and Copeland. Our focus will be on light music theory -- even playing some ourselves -- and rediscovering why we loved these bands so much in the first place.

[10] CHVRCHES
Electronic... Pop-rock... Scottish... CHRVCHES.
The episode was recorded last year when the show Zealous Musician was still in development. Recording this was part of testing out how to do episodes on different styles of music that I love. Rather than letting it sit on a shelf and collect dust, I decided to publish the episode! Although it's much different than the post-hardcore/emo bands of season one, I hope you enjoy this synthesized change of pace!
Special thanks to my guest Brad!

[9] UNDERØATH
Heavy, but groovy. Melodic, but hardcore. A paradise for guitar players who love hardcore music. Heavy drums. Electronic sound FX. The band that broke open the doors of melodic hardcore music in 2004. This band needs no introduction. Let's take a closer look at the music from Underoath.

[8] Brand New
Punk rock. Groovy. Heavy. Quiet. Acoustic. Brand New can do it all. In this episode, we unpack the dynamics from this very diverse rock band. Also we look at some of their pop music elements, captivating lyrics, and much more. If you're a sucker for anything acoustic then I think you'll enjoy this episode.

[7] Thursday
Let's take a closer look at a band that is truly one of the founding father bands of post hardcore and emo music: Thursday. Their guitar tones and vocals were very dynamic, ranging from brutal and heavy to soft and melodic. Jazzy & rock and roll drums, amazing lyrics, an honest approach to songwriting, and so much more. Together, let's pay tribute to the black dove.

Customer Reviews
Awesome!
Marco does a great job breaking down what makes these bands and their music special. Thanks for reminding me why I loved these bands so much, especially Copeland. That episode gave me all the feels.
Grit
Marco is your “one for the road” guy. There simply just aren’t many podcasts that I can sit back and listen to but this stuff is true G R I T and P A S S I O N! Don’t miss out, don’t second guess it! Just. Do. It!
Exceptionally accurate
Marco has a way of dissecting each and every song that will leave you wanting more. Such a great perspective. I love his perspective and how well he describes each detail of the music.
