Somebody needed to pick up the torch for hard rock and heavy metal with real grit and gusto and without a gimmick. Enter Who on Earth. The New Jersey outfit of Coosh [vocals], Pete Rizzi [bass], Johnny James Barone (guitar), Jimmy Kocha (guitar) and Howie Fallon [drums] — deliver a one-two punch of hard-hitting hooks and airtight instrumentation bolted down by pummeling grooves and piercing riffs. It all gestated from a question…“We wanted to fill in the blank of ‘Who On Earth is going to bring back good rock and metal?',” explains Pete. “We grew up on the new wave of British heavy metal and classic rock. We went through grunge and other great genres of metal. We wanted to resurrect the melodies, hooks, and guitar solos. We returned to our roots yet upgraded everything with modern production.”The group made their bones through countless gigs across the Tristate area in every dive bar and concert hall with a stage. Along the way, Andrew and Pete tore up venues as part of MadHaus, performing marathon covers. During 2021, the longtime friends chose to forego covers, hunker down, and compose an original album.  The composing came easily, and in a short time, the founding fathers had 10 songs ready to go.  To bring the record to life, the band hit the studio with none other than Mike Orlando (Category 7, Adrenaline Mob). Over the next year, the guys endured numerous COVID delays as they recorded with Orlando behind the board as producer, engineer, and “stunt” guitarist. Nodding to everyone from Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Metallica to Rush, Alice In Chains, and Tool, they placed storytelling in the spotlight.“The New Jersey heavy rockers bring their signature grit and power to the 1979 classic, adding punchy riffs, thunderous drums, and raw energy while honoring the spirit of the original.“Somebody needed to pick up the torch for hard rock and heavy metal with real grit and gusto without a gimmick.

Roger's first contribution to Queen blasts out of the gate and while it might be an intentional (or even subconscious) nod to another band, it stands on its own as a blazing statement of presence. Various versions (Queen, Queen I, Sessions Take, BBC Session 4) take us through the song's creation to an impressive performance that might take the cake as the ultimate best. This may be a lot of noise to some, but it feels deeper than that (to me).

In this episode, Desi Serna is joined by friends and fellow guitarists Matt Reviere and Jon "HW" Sullivan for a lively discussion about one of the most debated solos of the 1980s — Steve Howe's guitar solo in "Heat of the Moment" by Asia. The trio breaks down why the solo doesn't quite hit the mark, exploring its phrasing, tone, and fit within the song. Along the way, they take a deep dive into Steve Howe's legendary work with Yes, examining how such a brilliant player could deliver something that feels so out of place. Then things get creative — each guitarist reveals and plays a replacement solo they composed themselves, reimagining what the song could sound like with a stronger melodic statement. It's equal parts music theory, guitar nerdery, and good humor between three friends who love to analyze and play great guitar music.

Hit it, Slackers!On this week's episode, I'm debunking the myth that the best guitarists always deliver the greatest solos. Sure, virtuosos like Eddie Van Halen shred with jaw-dropping skill, but do their weedly-weedly-dee solos always elevate the song? Not necessarily! Sometimes, simpler is better—think melodic, tasteful, and hummable solos that truly serve the music.Is Eddie Van Halen a better guitarist than Mötley Crüe's Mick Mars? No question. But does he craft the best solos? Not always.  Is Eric Clapton an all time great? Duh, but why does a guy named Mike Slamer have one of the best power ballad solos of all time?In my opinion technical prowess doesn't always trump soulful, song-driven solos. Expect a heavy dose of ‘80s classics, a nod to a ‘70s gem, and some early 2000s bangers.

Michael #1: Talk Python rewritten in Quart Rewrote all of talkpython.fm in Quart (10k lines of code total, 4k changed) Considered FastAPI Litestar Django Hugo Static Site + Python Flask Discussed the multistage upgrade / conversion process Automating tests for all 1,000 pages Brian #2: PyPI now supports digital attestations Dustin Ingram “Attestations provide a verifiable link to an upstream source repository: By signing with the identity of the upstream source repository, such as in the case of an upload of a project built with GitHub Actions, PyPI's support for digital attestations defines a strong and verifiable association between a file on PyPI and the source repository, workflow, and even the commit hash that produced and uploaded the file. Additionally, publishing attestations to a transparency log helps mitigate against both compromise of PyPI and compromise of the projects themselves.” For maintainers If using GH Actions and Trusted Publishing make sure you use pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish, version v1.11.0 or newer that's it If not “Support for automatic attestation generation and publication from other Trusted Publisher environments is planned.” “While not recommended, maintainers can also manually generate and publish attestations.” See also PyPI Introduces Digital Attestations to Strengthen Python Package Security by Sarah Gooding Are we PEP 740 yet? Michael #3: Django Rusty Templates by Lily Foote An experimental reimplementation of Django's templating language in Rust. Goals 100% compatibility of rendered output. Error reporting that is at least as useful as Django's errors. Improved performance over Django's pure Python implementation.

Send Steve a Text MessageHey, everyone! Welcome to the Steve Stine Podcast. I'm your host Steve Stine, and today we're diving into five essential tips to improve your soloing skills on the guitar. We'll explore how to enhance your guitar tone for maximum comfort and confidence. We'll discuss making smooth connections across the fretboard, adding those little details—what I call "isms"—that bring authenticity to your playing. You'll also learn about giving your solos direction through chord connections and phrasing. Whether you're a beginner or have been playing for years, these tips are designed to help you elevate your guitar solos and make them sound more fluid and expressive. So grab your guitar, and let's get started on this musical journey together! Links: Steve's Channel → https://www.youtube.com/user/stinemus...

Send Steve a Text MessageEver struggled to make your guitar solos soar? Look no further, because in this musical masterclass, I'll guide you through linking scales to chords to ensure your solos are always on point. We start by examining the A minor chord and its best friend, the A minor pentatonic scale. I'll show you how to accentuate chord tones, like the root note A, crafting solos that dance perfectly with the chord progressions. As we encounter new chords, I unveil strategies for navigating these changes, such as when to emphasize different notes within the same scale or when it might be time to switch scales to match the harmonic shifts. All of this comes alive on the fretboard, where I demonstrate how to glide from A minor to G major pentatonic scales without missing a beat.But what about those tricky non-diatonic progressions that threaten to throw you off your game? Fear not! I break down the process of playing over chords that don't fit neatly within one key. You'll learn how to stay flexible and move along the fretboard, experimenting with different positions whether you're shifting from A minor to G minor or A minor to A flat minor. Starting with simple exercises, you'll build the confidence to expand your soloing vocabulary and approach each progression with a positive mindset. So, grab your guitar, and let's get your solos flying high above the fretboard with finesse and musicality.Tune in now and learn more!Links:Steve's Channel → https://www.youtube.com/user/stinemus... GuitarZoom Channel → https://www.youtube.com/user/guitarz0... Songs Channel → https://www.youtube.com/user/GuitarSo... . Check out Steve's Guitar Membership and Courses: https://bit.ly/3rbZ3He Links: Steve's Channel → https://www.youtube.com/user/stinemus...
