Reviews

4.9 out of 5 stars from 97 ratings
  • Great guests, average interviewing

    This show has a solid list of guests and topics, but the host starts nearly every question with “kinda bring me through that album”. And responds to everything with “That’s awesome, man”. I just think he could prepare better questions and be far more articulate. If you like hearing the filler-word “kinda” and “bring me through [insert anything]” numerous times, this is the show for you.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mark Rose (Spitalfield)
Q: How did the band navigate the 2000s touring life and the pressures of bigger tours?
Mark reflects on back-to-back touring, the rapid rise in shows, the learning curve of handling management and booking, and the balance between pursuing growth and personal life.
Mark Rose (Spitalfield)
Q: What was that like signing with Victory and what other labels were interested?
Mark explains the outreach process, the appeal of Victory being Chicago-based and aligned with bands they admired, and the sense of validation and opportunity that came with signing to a label that shared geography and ethos.
Michael Abrams (Valley of Doves)
Q: Bring me through recording that, what that was like.
Michael Abrams describes the process as a structured, deliberate build: drums, bass, and vocals tracked first to lock in the vocal melodies, followed by deliberate guitar layering and careful mixing to preserve live feel while achieving a polished sound.
Stephen Keech (Haste the Day)
Q: Bring me through joining Haste the Day.
Stephen describes how he was approached to fill in on vocals for an Europe tour, initially thinking it was about merch, then being asked to join full-time, and ultimately deciding to commit after weighing the impact on his friends and band.
Jon Berndtson (The Beautiful Mistake, Cue the Doves, Years Spent, Get Young)
Q: What was it like recording Light a Match with Ed Rose?
It was transformative; I wasn't prepared, and Ed pushed me to redo takes until everything clicked, which taught me the value of preparation and seriousness and shaped my work ethic for years.
