In this episode, I'm talking with Chino and Jeff from Supreme Mystic. This band blurs the lines of heavy music with a unique blend of hardcore and grunge that seeks to uplift as well as entertain. It was awesome to talk with these guys about their impressive paths through music which ultimately led to the formation of the band. As you would expect, we also talked about origin stories, first concerts, and pizza toppings. Supreme Mystic just finished up their debut album called Kala Rupa which should be out by the end of summer, if not sooner.

In this episode, I'm talking with Chris “Box”, Tony, and Marc from Mazinga. I've been a huge fan of Mazinga since seeing them for the first time back in 2009. It was outstanding to finally talk with them and learn about the origins of the band as well as chat about their new epic album called Chinese Democracy Manifest - Greatest Hits Vol. 2.

In this episode, I'm talking with Brandon, Rich, and Joey from Cullossus. This was such an easy and awesome conversation - I could have talked with these guys for hours. In addition to talking about the origins of Cullossus and their super heavy music, it was a lot of fun talking about great shows they have seen, our shared love for Black Sabbath, and guitars.

In this episode, I'm talking with Tony, John, Matt and Jarret from Absentees. I had a blast talking with these guys about their journey into crafting their own brand of heavy hitting punk rock. We chatted about their latest EP called All the Hertz: Volume 1 which was recorded and produced by Jon-Mikal of the Idiot Kids (who are Fans With Bands alumni). Our conversation included favorite tunes on the new EP, the recording process with Jon-Mikal, songwriting, wrestling, and pizza. There is no rest for the Absentees as they are working on new music and hope to release vinyl this year on Jett Plastic Recordings. In between songwriting and recording, Absentees will be doing more shows throughout the year.AbsenteesCheck out their musicFollow on Facebook, Instagram, SpotifyFans With BandsSubscribe to Fans With Bands on your favorite podcast service such as Apple, Youtube, Spotify, Audible, and Amazon Music.

In this episode, I'm talking with Jacob from The American Hotel System. Having seen them at the Sounds Like Michigan fundraiser for the Michigan Music Alliance, I immediately wanted to chat with them about their music. Their alt-rock music features great hooks and extremely thoughtful lyrics. You can experience their evocative songwriting on their recent EP called Can You Hear It? I had a great time talking with Jacob about his path in music, how the band came to be, songwriting, and more. The American Hotel System is planning a busy spring and summer of shows.

Tales from the Crypt!I had to reschedule my guest who was supposed to be on this week for Fans With Bands, which left a hole in the normal release schedule. However, this is a bit of a blessing in disguise! You see, when moving the podcast to Substack, there is an undocumented limit of 100 episodes that can be imported. Fans With Bands had 121 episodes, so 21 episodes from the first season are not here on Substack.So, to fill the void, you get to listen to the very first episode featuring Lansing's death metal band Recorruptor. I apologize in advance for the poor audio quality. In the early days of ZOOMing, well, sometimes, folks ' cell or internet signals were not the greatest. Beyond that, this is a time capsule as this episode was originally on Oct 26, 2020. I hope you enjoy this dip into the archives. I'll be working to sprinkle in the missing 21 early episodes over time so we have a full record of Fans With Bands here.Recorruptor Show NotesA chat with Clint, the vocalist for the Lansing, Michigan extreme metal band Recorruptor, and Nick, a fan of the band. In this episode, we talk about Nick's first experience with the band at Mac's (a classic dive bar in Lansing) and picking up Recorruptor's "Some S**t" demo. This launched Nick into following Recorruptor through their "Bloodmoon" and recently released "Funeral Corridor" albums.We also delved into the gateway bands of Slayer and Lamb Of God that pulled Nick and Clint into more extreme forms of metal. A big shout out to the godfather of the double kick drum, Dave Lombardo! Nick was curious as to the drinking routine for load in, and we got into Clint's 21st with Goatwhore, Black Fast, and Acid Bath. Hilarity then ensues :)Our talk gets a bit cerebral when we discuss the calming and cathartic aspects of metal music. While some may find the blistering chaos of Black Dahlia Murder beyond the pale. Extreme metal fans find the blasting power releases the tension from the day and leads to a blissful zen.Check out Recorruptor's music on BandcampFollow Recorruptor on Facebook InstagramYou can also follow Fans With Bands on Facebook and InstagramFor samplings of music by artists featured on Fans With Bands, drop by our playlist on SpotifySupport the podcast!!

In this episode of Fans With Bands, we talk with Ananda Murari. It's funny how a chance encounter waiting in line for the rest room led to discovering this hugely talented and wonderful person.

In this episode, I'm talking with Kay Harper. She is a brilliant and inspiring country artist whose recent single “Freight Train” is a streaming hit. In large part this is due to Kay's authentic voice and storytelling.

Welcome to season 5!! In this episode, we talk with Jared, Jimmy, and Brian from One With The Riverbed. I absolutely fell in love with this band the first time I caught them live at Jeff Fest in Kalamazoo. Dark, atmospheric, and blackened metal music that is brutally beautiful. It checks all the boxes on the What Does Chuck Dig About Metal Music list. It was a pleasure talking with them about how the band came to be, songwriting, influences and more. One With The Riverbed recently released their new album Succumb on Dusktone Records. It surely is one of the best albums of the year.

This band puts a new spin on the 90's rock and grunge stylings. In some ways I felt like I was listening to new Filter, Seven Mary Three, or Our Lady Peace when listening to Head Full Of Ghosts.

In this episode, we catch up with Stu and Sean from Pulphonics. Since our first conversation in season 3, Pulphonics have found the freedom to explore their musical ideas.

During our conversation we talked about the changes in songwriting and the new direction their music has taken. Since we'd already talked about pizza toppings, we learned what they enjoy for breakfast

In this episode, we talk with Ian, Elijah, Tegan, and Mer from Headless Mary. I had a fantastic chat with the band about how they got started (including the story on their name) as well as chatting about their last album called Death Is A Moving Target. If you love music that touches that vibe of bands like Sunny Day Real Estate and Hum, then Headless Mary is for you. We talked about songwriting, influences, music we are listening to, and our mutual infatuation with Radiohead. Along the way, we of course had to talk about pizza.   Their latest single “Park Place” will be on their new album called Pyres which comes out on Friday, August 23. You can pre-save over on Spotify. They will be celebrating the record release on Friday, August 23 at the Sanctuary in Hamtramck with Central Dogma (a future guest on Fans With Bands) who also have a new album coming.
