Interview with Dennis Stadelman from COPE; New album coming in 2013! @blpfam
Tampa Bay 4-piece COPE is heading out on a bunch of weekend warrior tour dates coming up, and that means warm weather vibes, groovy tunes, and smiling audiences all around. Their songs often incorporate a wide variety of diverse styles and embellishments, but it all ends in a scintillating batch of well structured tunes that’ll get you happily bouncing along to the melody and rhythm offered by the players.
Interview with Evan Friedell from JIMKATA (@jimkatamusic)! Playing NYE in Ithaca, NY @dansmalls
Energetic, electro-rock quartet Jimkata may be one of the best examples of a band that caught a serious break when electronic dance music and acoustic instrumentation caught the mainstream music industry’s eye. With heavy bass drops, sprinkled with tasty melodic embellishments and groovy instrumentation, Jimkata are a perfect fit within the new wave of electro-jam rock.
Interview with Rick Maguire from Boston, Massachusetts’ PILE! @thesyndotcom
Boston, Massachusettes quartet PILE just released their new record, dripping, which offers 10 tracks of intriguing musical shifts, unique solos, and heavy builds. For all of you vinyl nerds like me out there, you can grab a limited copy (500) of the 12” at their Bandcamp page, and you should… Helping touring bands is a very good thing!
Interview with NJ’s SICKER THAN MOST!
NJHC hardcore band Sicker Than Most are bringing the crunch and chug of Jersey’s Finest to hardcore enthusiasts everywhere. With super heavy down tuned guitars, gruff tough guy vocals that teetering on death metal growling, and plenty of breakdowns to keep the pit in motion, STM are brutalizing stages and dance floors wherever they play.
