Interview with Grave Maker drummer Wayne Kong
Drummer Wayne Kong for the hardcore band Grave Maker answered some questions for me about the band's newest release Ghosts Among Men. If it is hardcore you crave then look no further! This disc is a scorcher that pummels the listener with a vicious attack of killer hardcore. Thirty seconds into this disc I was sold hook, line and sinker. I absolutely love the energy and the intensity of these songs; they really get the blood flowing.
Interview with 10 Years drummer and guitarist Brian Vodinh
Fans of the alternative/modern rock band 10 Years, rejoice! The group is back and will be releasing their newest offering Feeding the Wolves on August 31st. The band has two singles that have been certified Gold and their song "Wasteland" reached Number 1 on the Alternative and Billboard Modern Rock charts. I recently chatted by phone with guitarist Brian Vodinh about the new record and band's plans for the upcoming year.

Shinobi Ninja is a high-energy Brooklyn based band that combines elements of reggae, rock, metal, punk and hip-hop into what they call Voltron-eque. The band recently released their second CD The Baby G EP which contains numerous apps that will entertain the user and keep them up to date on the band. The group is now getting ready to head back out on the road in support of the new release and I caught up with drummer Terminator Dave…
Interview with Hunter City Madness vocalist Justin Gow
Hunter City Madness has just released their debut CD, See You In Hell. This record is an all out assault on the senses and right from the beginning offers brash, aggressive and in your face metal tunes that will have listeners snapping their necks in no time at all. I recently spoke with vocalist Justin Gow about the band and their new release.
Interview with rap/rock artist and vocalist Hyro Da Hero
Mixing rap and rock music is obviously nothing new or revolutionary but Hyro Da Hero puts his own distinctive spin on the mixture. Born in Houston, Texas and raised in Los Angeles, Hyro has been quietly forming quite a following in the LA area since the end of 2007. Hyro takes his inspiration mostly from classic hip hop like Tupac Shakur and classic punk rock like Bad Brains and Fugazi.
Interview with Shadows Fall drummer Jason Bittner
I recently attended the Mayhem Tour in Virginia Beach, Va. and while there were many bands playing that night I was particularly impressed by Shadows Fall's performance. It was with great pleasure when a few days later I was able to catch up with drummer Jason Bittner by phone to discuss the tour and how the band is dealing with the stifling heat. The show on this particular night was quite incredible and the band was in top form as they pounded the nearly sold out crowd with some serious molten metal.
Interview with Buckcherry lead vocalist Josh Todd
Josh Todd, vocalist for the Grammy Nominated rock act Buckcherry, took some time out of his extremely busy schedule to speak with me about the band's newest release, All Night Long. This is the group's fifth full-length disc and while it contains all of the trademark Buckcherry elements that fans have come to expect, I feel it also improves on them as well. Each song stands on its own and has that gritty, unapologetic feel that is trademark Buckcherry.
Interview with American Hi-Fi guitarist and lead vocalist Stacy Jones
I recently spoke with American Hi-Fi lead vocalist and guitarist Stacy Jones about their upcoming release, Fight The Frequency. This is the band's 4th studio effort and I feel it is a return to their roots; many songs remind me of the band's critically acclaimed self-titled release from 2001. As can be expected from American Hi-Fi the hook driven melodies are fantastic and stay with you long after the song is over. Here is what Jones had to say about the new release and what we can expect from the band in the near future.
Interview with Hell Within guitarist Tony Zimmerman
Tony Zimmerman the guitarist for the Metalcore band Hell Within spoke with me recently about the band's latest release, God Grant Me Vengeance. This is the group's third full-length release and I feel it is a tighter, more mature record that really showcases the band at the top of their game. Fans of the genre should absolutely dig this disc. It is a fast, heavy and full on balls to the wall collection of killer tunes. Here is what Zimmerman had to say.
Interview with I Declare War vocalist Jonathan Huber and guitarist Evan Hughes
Vocalist Jonathan Huber and guitarist Evan Hughes of the band I Declare War took some time out of their busy schedules to answer some questions about their latest disc, Malevolence. The buzz around these guys has been huge and I have been anticipating this disc for some time now. Let me tell you, I think Malevolence lives up to all of the hype. This is a rock solid metal album that I am certain is going to go a long way in getting the band noticed.
