On this episode of the podcast, I chat with James of Thousand Below— a fun and kind dude to talk to— about the band's third album "Hell Finds You Everywhere", their emotional single "Sabotage, "and Deberg's music tastes and influences.

Hailing from San Diego, CA, the post-hardcore outfit recently released the music video for "Sabotage" and opened for Bad Omens on the "A Tour of the Concrete Jungle" run. Their third album deals with themes of isolation and finding hope in dark times. Next, the band is going on tour with Nothing More and Crown The Empire starting at the end of March.

On this (awesome) 11th episode of the podcast, I chat with Ronnie Winter of Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and we discuss the band's journey in the alternative rock scene, the legacy of their hit single "Face Down", the process of creating the music video for the revamped version of the song, and so much more. Come for the emo nostalgia, stay for the cool chat.  

Red Jumpsuit Apparatus is an American rock band formed in 2003. Hailing from Florida, the group was part of the first wave of rock groups to rise to prominence via social media. The newly remastered vinyl record of their 2008 album "Don't You Fake It" sold out in one minute.

Hi everyone! On the 10th episode of "A Million Emo Thoughts" (I'm so proud of reaching the 10th episode already). we have Jake Salazar, lead vocalist of RODERIK, on the show to discuss his band's single "Desperate Measures", mental health in music, pursuing your dreams, and so much more! This was such a fun episode. 

We have Milan-based metal band Stain The Canvas on the ninth episode of the show to discuss their sophmore album "All Fine", released via In Vogue Records in 2022, the pressures of social media, and finding the energy to create music during the pandemic, and more.  They are embarking on a EU / UK tour in 2023, supporting Attilia starting in February in the Netherlands. 

Stain The Canvas first appeared on the metal scene in 2019, with their first album "God Made Hell" , amassing two million streams globally and attracting a wide fan base for their hardcore sound. The 16 track long "All Fine" contains meditations on accepting one's current situation, eschewing perfection, and knwoing that it's okay to not always be fine.

On this episode of the podcast, things are a bit different— We have Cody Crulz, a concert photographer, on the show to discuss breaking into the photograhy industry, his time working in the merchandising department at Hot Topic, and what his professional life looks like now. (He also gives some great tips to aspiring concert photograhers in our chat too!) 

Orginally from Austrailia, Crulz had a dream of working in the rock music industry and made it happen through hard work, determination, and passion. It was a lot of fun to learn about the start of his journey into photography and how he's landed where he is today.
