This week we have the pleasure to present our interview with Enoch “Skeeter” Thompson, known for his place in the DC hardcore punk scene in the band Scream (you may remember them as the group Dave Grohl was a part of before Nirvana). Back in the late 70’s, Enoch joined up with his friends Franz, […]
This week we want to shine a light on one a band whose true talents get overlooked. The B-52’s may seem like just your standard party band, but they are so much more than that. Their technically sound instrumentation mixed with quirky lyrics run much deeper than a simple song about piling into a massive […]
This week we delve into the age old question, does music actually have any influence on the people that commit crimes? (Spoiler: no) We tell the tale of the TWO stories that Pearl Jam’s infamous single ‘Jeremy’ is based on and it’s cultural impact. From there we go into a few well known instances where […]
In this episode we continue down the spiral of Nine Inch Nails’ story.

We decided to pick up this Halloween season with a story a bit more fun and inspiring than previous ones. You may not realize the role and influence Elvira has played in music, but it’s there and it’s heavy. Not only an icon for all things spooky, she is also a smart and strong babe […]
We are continuing Halloween month by bringing back true crime stories, involving people in the music biz who have abused their power and influence and try to get away with some of the most heinous crimes. We tell the tales of two absolutely influential producers- first we discuss Lawrence Horn, famous for developing new layering […]
We are kicking off Halloween month with a pretty horrifying story. GG Allin’s life was terrible from the get-go, and it didn’t get any better as he grew up.
