  • Pulls back the curtain!

    I’m 25 episodes in, cherry picking bands I know, sprinkling in the chronological (& able to stand on their own episodes) too. This show covers so much! How bands are made of people. What the industry can do to and for a musician. How time and location factor into the creative process (the wannabe anthropologist in me loves that bands & sounds are now logged as an oral history. Florida punk 🤘🏼).

    The last show I saw//near me only had 1 band (of 6) I actively enjoy but the available interviews ... more

  • Please let the interviewee speak

    I really love hearing about these guests and their experiences! Ultimately a cool podcast, but the interviewing could use some fine-tuning imho. In the Tades from HM episode especially, it was a lot of Shane cutting him off (and actually saying "I'm going to cut you off") and interjecting his own stories right after asking a question. Mad respect to Shane and his experiences, but it felt like a conversation flow killer, and it took a bit of time to get the back and forth volleying going again in... more

  • Life Saving Syndrome !

    As a singer-songwriter myself, who has experienced highs and lows—I find it easy to relate to Shane and his guests on the show. To hear people talk about their aspirations and dreams similar to my own has been nothing short of uplifting and has saved me in a way. Music lovers will undoubtedly enjoy this podcast, which sheds a lot of light on the industry. For me, it’s even more personable getting to hear so many artists with likeminded viewpoints to my own. Thank you for an awesome podcast! 🤙🏼... more

  • One of the best podcast around!

    If you love music then you will fall in love with lead singer syndrome. I absolutely adore Shane and love all the interviews. Of course I’m a huge Silverstein fan. I’m here for the nostalgia from when I was a teen listening to my favorite lead singers relive all the memories of touring during the peak of MySpace days and of course some of the best shows I ever attended. I really appreciate all the honesty and insight into some very raw topics that molded these amazing people. Give it a list... more

  • Unique take on a lead singer’s perspective

    If you’re a music fan then you will

    absolutely enjoy this podcast. I love Shane 💜IMO he’s a talented singer and I’d listen to whatever he puts out regardless… not gonna lie, I started to listen because of him and my love for Silverstein’s music; however I ended up loving all the interviews some from bands I never even knew existed! I am only halfway through the episodes and can’t wait to hear the rest. It gave me a much clearer picture on bands making it, touring and the fact that it’s not all... more
