It's easy to understand the appeal of the Kadaknath chicken if you understand the meaning of its alternative name Kali Masi: “fowl having black flesh”. This Indian breed is the result of years of natural selection rather than human intervention, and the result is a beautiful and unique chicken breed. The Kadaknath chicken is rare today as a result of overconsumption, but breeders are hard at work to replenish the chickens' numbers while facilitating a healthy, hardy breed. We explore the unique origin of the chicken and the hardships they have overcome, as well as explain the reason demand is so high for Kadaknath meat. Keep reading to learn everything you need about the Indian breed.  Full:  Kadaknath Chicken: Everything You Need To Know 

This week I talk with Sam Porter of the very good band Kali Masi from Chicago. We discuss his in-depth research of mini golf courses, morbid stuff, and maybe social media is bad for people??  Follow @kalimasiband on all social media They just announced a tour with Tighwire and Sam Russo!

Episode 59 of (*both laugh*) brings us another full band episode! This time, we're joined by Drea Doll, Gaby Kaos and Cassie Jalilie, collectively known as the kick-ass Arizona punk rock trio The Venomous Pinks! 2022 marks their tenth year as a band, and it also marks the release of their very first full-length LP. Named "Vita Mors," it's due out on June 3rd via SBAM Records, a label you may remember from their owner's appearance on 36 of this very show a year ago! We talk quite a bit about the new album and all that went in to its recording, a process which was handled by Cameron Webb and Linh Le, each of whom is a powerhouse in their own right. We also talked about the scenes in Mexico and Arizona and the Bay Area, and how the current lineup of the band inspired the push to make "Vita Mors" a reality. The band are also set to come to the East Coast for the first time in June, where they'll be opening up for the iconic Dead Kennedys and Nekromantix!

(*both laugh*) is somehow up to 58 episodes, but we're still having fun and some of y'all seem to still enjoy it, so we'll keep rolling! This episode finds us catching up with the great Brian McTernan again. McTernan was the guest on Episode 15 a couple of years ago, in the lead-up to the debut Be Well album, "The Weight And The Cost." Next Friday (May 20th if you're reading this in the future), Be Well is back with a brand new album! It's a six-song EP called "Hello Sun," and it finds the band expanding the sonic palette that I thought they had perfected on "TW&TC." It's really great and personal and haunting and melodic and everything you want form a post-hardcore record (or whatever, I don't get labels) and more. We talk an awful lot about the new album and the musical directions. In a bit of unexpected synchronicity, May is also Mental Health Awareness Month, and Brian is no stranger to talking about his struggles with depression and alcohol use and more, as is pretty obvious if you listened to the last album. We talk about that, but about how the new album, while "dark," isn't dark for dark's sake; it's written from the perspective of someone who has moved through the darkness and worked towards a newfound light. Thus, "Hello Sun." We also talked a lot about the newest Hot Water Music Record, "Feel The Void." After having worked on "A Flight And A Crash" and "Caution" and "The New What Next" roughly two decades ago, McTernan found himself both reconnected with the now five-piece band during the early days of the Covid lockdown and at the helm of "Feel The Void." It was a fascinating time in that band's history and produced an important album, and McTernan's work (and point of view) are invaluable. And we talk a lot about their upcoming tour dates, and there are a TON of them on both sides of the Atlantic, including a lengthy run with New Found Glory and a UK/EU jaunt with Hot Water Music and Samiam.

At long last (longer than it should have been because...well because time is a social construct really) Dave Hause returns for his second appearance on (*both laugh*)! When last we spoke (Episode 25 if you're keeping score at home), Dave had just self-released a double EP of Patty Griffin and Paddy Costello/Dillinger Four covers. We were still in Pandemic Year One and that project served as a fun and unique way to stay productive and creative and to dip his toes into navigating through the "new normal" waters. Fast-forward eighteen months (yes, really...18 months, almost to the day...remember when I said time was a social construct) and it was time for round two! The centerpiece of this installment was Dave's latest solo album, "Blood Harmony." It was released last October on his own record label, but because the vinyl is still trickling its way out, I don't feel QUITE so bad about catching up at the six month post-release mark. "Blood Harmony" found Dave and his brother Tim working together again, this time in Nashville. The duo and producer Will Hoge (himself not only a brilliant songwriter and masterful producer but a veteran of this show as well - see Episode 12) holed up at Sound Emporium with a slew of heavy-hitting studio musicians (Sadler Vaden, Tom Bukovac, Garry Tallent!!?!?!). "Blood Harmony" finds Hause running headlong down the Americana path that he'd been at least tip-toeing down for the last decade. We talked about the album, and the recording, and Will Hoge's greatness, and the idea of "chasing the song." We also talked about his ongoing partnership with Tim (including work on Tim's own upcoming debut solo album) and about therapy and about touring in a never-ending pandemic and a lot more, as we are want to do. Check out "Blood Harmony" here: https://davehause.bandcamp.com/album/blood-harmony (https://davehause.bandcamp.com/album/blood-harmony) While you're at it, check out the rest of Dave's bandcamp releases - lots of live shows and some newer B-sides and more: https://davehause.bandcamp.com/ (https://davehause.bandcamp.com/) Get more Dave goodies and tour dates and whatnot here: http://davehause.com/ (http://davehause.com/) (*both laughs*) theme song is an excerpt from [laughs] track "Hurts To Laugh." © KALI MASI 2021 ℗ Take This To Heart Records 2021

Old friend and musician JD Short (Bassdbler, Beltalowda) drops in from his home in London to wax prophetic about songs from Faith No More, Kali Masi, Blonde Readhead and Miles Davis. Check out JD's work here.

As the drummer of Kali Masi, John Garrison has performed all around the United States, toured Europe, played Riot Fest and FEST, shared the stage with the likes of The Lawrence Arms and Titus Andronicus, and released one of our favorite albums of last year (the altogether outstanding [laughs] via Take This To Heart Records). Years before he was keeping the beat for the accomplished Chicago punk quartet, Garrison was growing up in a Windy City suburb and practicing percussion in a bunch of short-lived projects that landed all over the map stylistically. Prior to Kali Masi's April 9 concert at Cobra Lounge and upcoming European tour with Spanish Love Songs, Garrison spoke with My First Band host Tyler Maas about getting back on stage after an extended pandemic-related pause, the band's new Patreon page and his musical start in basements and garages in Naperville, Illinois. Over the course of the conversation, Garrison talked about the influence his older brother had on his music taste, playing songs by Megadeth and The Hives in his middle school talent show, and finally finding musical kinship when he met his eventual Kali Masi bandmate Sam Porter in high school. My First Band is sponsored by Mystery Room Mastering and Lakefront Brewery. The show is edited by Jared Blohm. You can listen to My First Band on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify and wherever else you get podcasts. You can also listen to rebroadcasts of previous My First Band episodes on WMSE every Wednesday from noon to 12:30 p.m. CST. Music used in this episode comes courtesy of Devils Teeth ("The Junction Street Eight Tigers") and Kali Masi ("Guilt Like A Gun").

Every now and then you come across an album that becomes a benchmark moment for you; like, life existed before that album and then the world shifted and things weren't the same after that.  My own personal list includes the likes of: Vs. Recipe For Hate. Question The Answers. Badmotorfinger. The '59 Sound. The Low End Theory. Stay Positive. 36 Chambers. Caution. 1372 Overton Park. And now, realistically, The Great American Novel. If you're unfamiliar, Proper. are a three-piece formed in NYC roughly 5/6 years ago (as The Great Wight initially) but hailing really from a variety of locations across the country and bringing with them all of their collective experiences and musical influences and creating something that hasn't really been done before. I remember hearing their last album, I Spent The Winter Writing Songs About Getting Better admittedly a little late and thinking "damn...I've never really heard anything like this before." The new album, The Great American Novel, takes all of the things that were great about the last one and pushes the needles way past 10. It's important music. It's music about alienation and about not fitting in and about being a queer person of color in a land that, despite it being 2022, is at times becoming even less comfortable with people that check those boxes. It's raw and it's powerful and it's somehow still hopeful. Oh, and if fucking shreds. I feel lucky that we were able to catch up not just with Erik Garlington who spearheads the whole thing but with the full band (Natasha Johnson on bass and Elijah Watson on drums and whom you may also know from his "day job" as a journalist for Okay Player).

I don't think it's overstating things to call Hot Water Music not only one of the most influential and respected bands in the last three decades of this scene, but one of the most genre-defining bands as well. For the second time in this show's history, we got to chat up one of the founding members! This time, the victim was Jason Black, who in my mind is one of the most under-rated bass players in rock music. We talk about whether being an underrated bass player in a genre-defining band is all it's cracked up to be, but more importantly, we chat a lot about the brand new HWM album, "Feel The Void." It's out March 18th on Equal Vision Records, and not only does it mark the first time the band reunited with producer Brian McTernan, it also marks the band's first full-length with Chris Cresswell in the mix as a permanent member...even taking lead vocal duties on a song! We also talk a lot about how the band came together to write the album - no easy task given that they collaborated from their home bases in Florida (Wollard, Black and Rebelo), California (Ragan), Maryland (McTernan) and now Ontario (Cresswell). Hurray for Zoom!

It's March 1st, so that means it's officially the kickoff to Women's History Month. As such, we've teamed up with our friends at Mable Syndrome for a pretty fun feature. If you check out our Instagram pages (@mable.syndrome and @dyingscene obviously), we'll be posting every single day of March a picture of a women band/ artist/ musician and featuring the woman who took the picture. We have many amazing and talented women in the punk rock scene and we are excited to give them an entire month to shine! For Episode 54 of (*both laugh*), we caught up with Mable Syndrome co-founder Kristen to talk about building their site - and their community - from the ground up over the last half-decade. Yours truly has guested on the Mable Syndrom podcast twice, so returning the favor was probably long overdue! Thanks Kristen!

Well, I guess this is growing up. On Marmite and Boudica and Red Dwarf and The Van Pelt and the best punk rock album of the year. Earlier this month, Frank Turner released his ninth studio album. Entitled FTHC, it is by far his most "punk rock" album to date (I suppose one could argue that his previous album, 2019's No Man's Land, which was primarily a historical folk album with each song telling a different tale about a woman from history, ranging from Sister Rosetta Tharpe to Christa McAuliffe, was his most "punk rock" album to date for entirely different reasons, but that's more of a semantic argument than we need right now). FTHC is his most personal album to date - no easy feat for someone who's made a career of wearing his tape deck heart on his sleeve. It may indeed be his best album to date. It is, most certainly and perhaps not surprisingly given the above factors, his first album to debut at #1 on the charts in his native UK. We caught up with Turner the day after learning that FTHC was, in fact, named the number one selling album in the land. We talked about the importance of that distinction, particularly as it came fifteen years and nine albums into his solo career. We talked about the influences behind the album and about how getting married and turning 40 and still being alive has provided a different sort of perspective that wasn't afforded to his younger self. We talked about the making of the album (the image of Ilan Rubin recording drums in a Los Angeles studio over Zoom while Frank watched from London and producer Rich Costey watched from Vermont is still one I find endlessly amusing). We talked about the stories behind some of the album's more personal tracks, although I did leave out the songs about his struggles with anxiety and cocaine addiction and how his relationship with his father changed after the latter came out as a trans woman several years ago; those have been covered at length in other outlets. And perhaps most importantly, we talked about the legion of Turner fans, aptly known as the Frank Turner Army, that has been steadily building for the better part of the last decade and who, frankly, rightly share in a lot of the success behind FTHC. They even pitched in for a few questions that certainly ran a stylistic gamut. If you haven't bought FTHC yet, get it at your local indie record store or here: https://store.frank-turner.com/ If you want to go back in time and read our chat with Frank from the steps of Boston's City Hall before his 2014 appearance at Boston Calling, go here: https://dyingscene.com/ds-interview-and-photo-gallery-frank-turner-in-boston-on-his-1567-show-rise-to-fame/ If you want to watch my then-four-year-old daughter sing "English Curse," go here.

In this episode of In The Spotlight, I grill Sam and John from the Chicago rock band Kali Masi about their favorite bands, live mottos, whether it's okay to hold a grudge and even their favorite cars.

In this episode of The Powered By Rock Podcast, I get the chance to catch up with Sam Porter and John Garrison from the Chicago rock band Kali Masi about how their band really digs deep into emotion and lyrical connection to make some absolutely stellar music. We discuss the songwriting process, the songs that they have put out, making music and touring during a pandemic, and plenty more about the band and how they came to be Kali Masi as they are now. These guys really bring some interesting insight to the rock genre, and it is an episode you are going to want to check out whether you have heard of them or not, because after this, you definitely SHOULD know who they are. Big things are on the horizon for Kali Masi!

This is an episode that I've been looking forward to since before (*both laugh*) was even an idea for a show. I was introduced to Sarah Shook's music when their debut album, Sidelong, was rereleased by Bloodshot Records back in 2017 (it had initially been self-released by their band, Sarah Shook and the Disarmers, several years prior but I was waaaay out of the loop at that point). I found Sidelong to be an interesting listen; it felt like it ran a real throwback country-and-western vibe through a little bit of a modern roadhouse filter. It certainly wasn't like much else I listened to at the time, and Sidelong and its follow-up, 2018's Years, even stood out amongst the large quantity of Bloodshot artists I'd been listening to for a long time (Cory Branan, Scott H. Biram, Murder By Death, Lydia Loveless, etc).  The Disarmers went into the studio in California to record their third album in early 2020, just as the world was on the cusp of shutting down for the foreseeable future. Label issues and supply chain issues and inability to tour issues got in the way got in the way, as they're wont to do. Fast forward to 2022 and Sarah Shook is on the cusp of releasing their third album. It's called Nightroamer and it's on a new label (Thirty Tigers) and it's really, REALLY good. Fans of Sarah Shook and the Disarmers will certainly find plenty of recognizable sounds, but there are left turns and even-further-left turns and some new and different subject matter. All of that results in an immensely compelling listen, easily their best output to date. We caught up with Sarah to talk at length about the new album; from finishing the recording roughly a week before the pandemic became "a thing" in the States, to the obvious label issues, to the choice of when to actually release it to the world. We also talked about some of the subject matter; parts of the album were written after Shook got sober, and obviously created a very different writing process for them this time around. Perhaps most compellingly, we talked about their increasing involvement as a vocal force to be reckoned with, advocating for the elevating of queer and non-white voices in the country music world. Oh, and we talked about their growing up in strictly religious household and teaching themselves to play guitar and write songs in spite of having no popular music frame of reference, a concept that is truly mind-boggling to me. Nightroamer is due out February 18th. Pre-orders are still available here: https://www.disarmers.com/store/Music-c23349544 You can also check out the Disarmers' videos and live performances and more on their YouTube page here: https://www.youtube.com/c/SarahShooktheDisarmers/videos (*both laughs*) theme song is an excerpt from [laughs] track "Hurts To Laugh." © KALI MASI 2021 ℗ Take This To Heart Records 2021

+++ Bully #084 +++ An diesem Freitag hat es uns in den Norden verschlagen. Genauer gesagt nach Hamburg. Dort treffen wir auf Christina Brokate. Die spielt beim Hamburger SV. Wir sprachen darüber, wie sie zum Hockey gekommen ist und was sie so im Sommer treibt. Diana und Frank hatten eine tolle Aufnahme mit der sympathischen Stürmerin. Am Ende haben wir auch noch ein "Entweder oder...?" der speziellen Art. In der Musikrubrik haben wir heute alte Bekannte: Kali Masi. Die Band ist uns so ans Herz gewachsen, das wir sie noch einmal fragen mussten, ob wir noch einen Song spielen dürfen. Und siehe da, sie haben ihr Ok für unseren Lieblingssong gegeben: Some Friends Nun rein in den Podcast und dann ins Wochenende!

Back in early 2020, Hushdrops, the long-running Chicago-based power trio (John San Juan on guitar and vocals, Joe Camarillo on drums, Jim Shapiro on bass) were slated to go into the studio to finish work on what would become their third full-length record. Then in what's become a recurring theme on this show, plans were put on hold due to the onset of Year One of the pandemic.  While that part of the story is certainly not unique, the story took a sharp and unexpected and tragic turn a year ago. As Year Two of the pandemic kicked off, Camarillo was hospitalized for a stroke and a heart attack. While in the hospital, he suffered and ultimately succumbed to a brain stem stroke. At only 52, the literal backbone of the band was taken much, much too soon. After some time, San Juan and Shapiro decided the best way to honor their longtime friend and collaborator was to pull together the album that they'd been working on prior to the pandemic. The problem, obviously, is that it wasn't done yet. As fate would have it, there was a soundboard recording of one of the band's last pre-lockdown shows, a set that included a few new tracks that were intended for the new release but that hadn't made their respective ways to the recording studio yet. What followed was the fascinating (to me, anyway) challenge of recording studio guitar, bass and vocals over the isolated live performance drum tracks for two songs that ended up on the album, creating what is a very unique feel to both those tracks and the album in general. We were lucky enough to catch up with John San Juan to talk about all of this and more. It was the first time we talked, although we've talked about him on a few episodes of (*both laugh*) to date, as he plays bass in the trio that Smoking Popes' Josh Caterer put together for the pair of live albums that he released as bookends in 2021. We talked a lot about Josh, and about Joe, and about mellotrons, and all things in between.

Hello! This episode I have John Garrison from the Chicago punk band Kali Masi. We discuss the going ons with Kali Masi, his art, and the importance of fashion.  Check out Kali Masi's new album [laughs] out now on Take This To Heart Records.

It's our final episode of 2021, and we had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Derek Sanders of Mayday Parade. Derek stopped by for an incredibly insightful and candid chat about his life as a musician for the past 15 years. He is a very humble and interesting guy, and we were really grateful for his time. If you haven't yet, please do yourself a favour and check out Mayday Parade's new album 'What It Means To Fall Apart', available everywhere. We also discuss a recent gig featuring Kali Masi and LOVEBREAKERS (for a change!). Apple Spotify Instagram Twitter Facebook Email

This particular episode was a long time coming, for a variety of reasons. Josh Freese has had the type of career - and has the type of personality - that has made me want to interview him for a lot longer than I've had the capacity to actually conduct interviews. He might have played with everyone from Sting to Guns 'N' Roses to Nine Inch Nails to The Offspring to Dweezil Zappa to Juliana Hatfield to Kelly Clarkson, but if you've been involved in the punk rock scene at all for the last three decades, he's still Josh from The Vandals. Or, for a small number of us, Josh from Viva Death. Anyway, Josh just put out a new solo album, "Just A Minute: Vol. 1" - it was written and recorded from his home studio during quarantine. It's twenty songs in, you guessed it, twenty minutes, and it was released on Loosegroove Records, a label owned by Pearl Jam's Stone Gossard and Brad's Regan Hagar. It's wild: some of the songs are expertly crafted and fully thought-out punk rock songs and some of them sound almost like the descent into madness that a lot of us experienced when locked in our houses for an indeterminate amount of time. We cover a lot of ground over the course of 75 or so minutes: Danny Elfman, The Vandals, Stone Gossard and Pearl Jam, living in Long Beach, playing with Sting, Queens Of The Stone Age, setting up a home recording studio a decade ago and actually finding the time to use it during a pandemic, and a lot more. We also talked, obviously, about "Just A Minute: Vol. 1" and probably spent more time talking about "Just A Minute: Vol. 2," which should hopefully be out during the spring of '22.

The good ship (*both laugh*) keeps sailing along with our 48th episode, and it features one of our only repeat guests to date. He's the owner of one of my favorite voices in the pantheon of punk rock, and he's also one of my favorite songwriters and one of, in my opinion, the most underrated guitar players in the scene. A triple threat! Anyway, he's the inimitable Josh Caterer, and if you remember back at the beginning of 2021, we chatted about what was to be his first solo release, The Hideout Sessions. It was an album recorded in front of a live stream online audience at an otherwise empty club in Chicago, and it marked the first real appearance of any sort by this particular project, which featured Caterer on guitar and vocals, John Perrin on drums and John San Juan on bass. To mark the release of that album this spring, the band played an album release show, but because all of the clubs were still closed to the public, they did it via live stream and recorded it as an album...AGAIN! If you're keeping score at home, that makes not one but TWO live albums recorded before actually playing a show in front of an in-person, human audience. The result of that latter show is The SPACE Sessions, due out next week (December 17th) on Pravda Records. It was recorded at - you guessed it - at SPACE in Evanston, Illinois, and like The Hideout Sessions, it features an interesting mix of songs from Caterer's catalog (via Smoking Popes and, yes, Duvall!!!) and some standards that you might otherwise think of as from the big band era, because they were popularized by the likes of Judy Garland and Sammy Davis Jr. and Elvis Presley and, in the case of "At Last," which happens to be my wedding song...Etta James. The set also closes with Caterer being joined on vocals by his daughter, Phoebe, for an updated take on "Somethin' Stupid," popularized by Frank Sinatra and his own daughter, Nancy. If been even tangentially aware of the punk scene over the course of the last three decades, you're of course aware of a legion of bands that have covered songs from outside the typical punk rock milieu, but they've done them with a fair amount of tongue planted firmly in cheek, as in "oh, isn't it funny/ironic that we're playing this song this way!" Sometimes it works great and sometimes it's a gag that tires after the first few listens, much like a comedy album. What's different about the old standards that Caterer et al., take on is the appreciation that the band has for the source material, paying considerable homage in their modern retellings. Anyway, I'm rambling (I know, right?)...if you liked The Hideout Sessions, you'll love the SPACE Sessions. I'll add pre-order links when they're available (it'll be available digitally and on CD next weekend but the vinyl will have to wait until...who knows, honestly. Friggin' Adele...).

Boston-area Americana-punk troubadour Jesse Ahern has shared stages with everyone from Dropkick Murphys to Rancid to Frank Turner to Lenny Lashley and countless others both across the US and across Europe. At long last, he finally sits down with us for a chat about his new album, "Heartache and Love." The album grew out of sessions that popped up during the pandemic when what had been some pretty expansive 2020 tour plans ground to a halt. The album both refines and expands upon the sort of roots-rock-meets-folk-punk thing that Ahern has been doing so well for years now. It helped earn Ahern a Boston Music Award nomination for Americana Artist Of The Year, where he's up against some local heavy hitters like Mark Erelli and Lila Wiles and Lashley himself. At first glance, it might seem that Ahern would fit into a handful of other categories, from Singer-Songwriter of the Year to Punk/Hardcore or Rock or Folk or even Blues Artist of the Year...but maybe that's what makes Ahern so perfect for the Americana label, because his sound is an amalgam of all of the above, all of which make him an artist rooted in classic American working-class music. As you might imagine based on the almost 90-minute length of our chat, we cover a lot of ground, from parenting three children during a pandemic, to touring Europe with Dropkick Murphys and Frank Turner, to his upcoming overseas run with Chuck Ragan and Chris Cresswell, to growing up in the Boston area music scene, to the struggles with addiction and the depths of the recovery community in the punk scene. We also talk quite a bit about Lenny Lashley, because he's a one-of-a-kind.

Despite having a career that has consisted of more than three decades of writing and recording and playing music professionally in bands like Rancid and the Old Firm Casuals and Stomper 98 and Last Resort and Lars Frederiksen and the Bastards and Oxley's Midnight Runners and probably more that I'm forgetting, next Friday (November 26th if you're keeping track) marks the release date for the inimitable Frederiksen's debut release as a solo artist. The album is called "To Victory" and it'll be released on Pirates Press Records (and yes, physical copies of the vinyl version do exist!) and it features reworked versions of a half-dozen tracks that span Frederiksen's entire career arc as both a music fan and a music maker. Fear not, fans off Frederiksen's particular style of aggressive songwriting; this solo release doesn't see him abandoning his street punk roots for a beard and a flannel and a campfire acoustic guitar. It's still raw and aggressive, yet the stripped down version of a song like "Motherland" or "Skunx" finds the lyrics resonating on a much more personal level. We were lucky enough to have a lengthy and wide-ranging conversation with Frederiksen about all things "To Victory," from the initial batch of several dozen songs that were proposed, to playing his first show as a true solo artist, to the sort of shifts in perspective and priorities that come from going through a divorce and the death of his mother and finding a new partner and turning 50 all in the span of a couple of years...a span that included a global pandemic that forced the shutdown of the entire music industry for the foreseeable future.

Welcome back, (*both laugh*) fans! We took a little hiatus there for a few but we're back in action. For episode 45, we caught up with Sonia Sturino of the kick ass trio known as Weakened Friends. They're due to put out their sophomore full-length, "Quitter," on November 19th and let me tell you...it's a great one! We talked an awful lot about the band pushing themselves on this record (which was produced by the band's bass player, Annie Hoffman, and engineered by Hoffman and their drummer, Adam Hand) in ways that they hadn't quite before. We also talked about being on tour in March 2020 as the world was shutting down, and getting back out on the road last month in the, I guess we're calling it, "new normal." Oh, and we definitely talked about The Tragically Hip (a band I've quite honestly never knowingly heard) and Our Lady Peace (a band that I've definitely heard and enjoyed for years) and about how cool a record label Don Giovanni is and lots more stuff as well (like our mutual pal Adam Parshall, who is an amazing concert photographer...hi Adam!). This was a lot of fun and everyone should check out "Quitter" ASAP and go catch Weakened Friends on the road with The Beths early next year! -Pre-order "Quitter" from Don Giovanni Records here: https://www.dongiovannirecords.com/store -...or find it on their Bandcamp page here: https://weakenedfriends.bandcamp.com/ -Visit Weakened Friends' website here: https://www.weakenedfriends.com/ -Theme song as always is "Hurts To Laugh" by the lovely and talented Kali Masi. from their 2021 release [laughs].

This episode we had a great conversation about life, music, and parenthood with Matt and Karl from Desperate Acts and featured music from:  Costumera, Kali Masi, and Desperate Acts.

Suzi Moon has been an active member of the punk rock scene for well more than half her life, so you might expect that she would have used the free time provided by unplanned COVID-related shutdowns over the last 18 months to pause and catch her breath. You'd be sorely mistaken, however. After years of playing in a band with her sister (Civet, obviously) and taking filmmaking classes and starting a new band, Turbulent Hearts, and playing bass in a new band that flamed out rather unceremoniously last year (L.A. Machina), Moon stepped out on her own for real. She put out an EP, "Call The Shots," earlier this year under her own name with the help of Pirates PRess Records. She self-produced and directed music videos for each of the three songs on "Call The Shots." She's also got another ten songs already recorded for a full-length, and is going back in to the studio in the coming days to record another brand new EP. She's got a full backing band of fellow scene vets (Drew Champion and Sean Peterson of The Split Second on guitar and drums respectively, Patti Bo from River City Rebels on bass) that are slated to play their first shows, including Camp Punksylvania, in a couple of weeks - delta variant be damed. We caught up with Moon to talk about all of that and more. Stay tuned for updates on new material and new videos soon!

If you've watched previous episodes of (*both laugh*) or if you've heard me guest on other podcasts or if you know me personally, you know that Pearl Jam has been a huge part of my musical journey. "Ten," which turns thirty years old this time next month, struck at exactly the right time in my formative years. The shockwave is still being felt, to say the least. Pearl Jam were very honestly the band that really ushered in my love of punk rock, in part through their very public love of bands like Dead Kennedys and Bad Religion and Social D and Dead Boys and obviously The Clash and Ramones. As I one-time aspiring bass player, it was Jeff Ament whose style got me to buy my first bass when I was a teenager (an Alvarez Dana bass, if you're interested). I've not only followed Pearl Jam far and wide over the last three decades, but I've followed Jeff's solo career and side projects (Three Fish, Tres Mts., RNDM, etc) along the way. His songs are always intricate and textured and unique and pull from a variety of influences. Next month, Ament will release a new solo full length. Entitled "I Should Be Outside," it was written and recorded entirely during COVID-related quarantine. But it's also not the only material he's put out during this time, as it follows last year's blistering "American Death Squad" EP and a new project called Deaf Charlie that features Fitz and the Tantrums' John Wicks on drums. This was immensely entertaining and meaningful for me, and I hope that came across. I was lucky enough to meet Jeff once in passing at an RNDM show on a snowy November night in Boston (there's a picture of that meeting in the intro and over my right shoulder during our chat here) and I thought that was one of the coolest things that had ever happened to me that didn't involve marriage or the birth of my kid. This was cooler. Thanks Jeff. And yes, don't worry Pearl Jam fans...we talked a lot about PJ and songwriting history and all the "how the sausage is made" stuff!

This week, my guest is Sam Porter, of the band Kali Masi. We discuss songwriting, creativity and growing up in Chigago's suburbs. We also talk about the songs on Kali Masi's latest album [laughs].  The sponsor of the week is Pack Sounds. Pack Sounds is a band from Kalamazoo. Check them out! https://packsounds.bandcamp.com/

This week I get to catch up with Sam and John of the Chicago based indie punk/emo/alt rock outfit KALI MASI. To try and describe the sound that is Kali Masi would be a disservice to its creators. Their latest album [laughs] has something for everyone with working ears. Sam, John, and I found ourselves diving down many different rabbit holes all the while pulling answers to our most serious questions with "[laughs]" and smiles.  If there is a point while you are listening to this at home and your dog goes crazy, we're not sorry, that's just some of the fun we had. If there is a time and place to listen to KALI MASI that time is now! While "Some Friends" "Sputter," we had so much fun it "Hurts To Laugh!"KALI MASI - [laughs]     OUT NOW!!!!     check it out wherever you get you music

Kali Masi have never been a band to hold anything back, and the four-piece stays true to this promise on the new LP. From start to finish, [laughs] is cutting, crucial and honest, with poetic recollections and curses of the past juxtaposed by contemplative acceptance of self in the present. On the new record, the band explores and dissects elements of strained friendships that often go unspoken, sometimes to the point of abandonment beyond repair. Recording once again with hardcore icon Jay Maas, co-founder of Defeater, Kali Masi crafted another masterful balance of urgency, tension and alluring instrumental harmony. The seconds between tracks will leave you guessing whether to rest or revel, and no matter which you get, you're always taken by pleasant surprise. The 10 new songs are for feeling lonely in a room full of familiar faces, as well as for restless nights in the throes of transition and growth. No matter where you are in life, Kali Masi is here with an explosive passion for finding who we are — and celebrating it. Take these songs with you as you cut yourself loose of the snares that once made you feel like a prisoner. With [laughs] crashing through your ears, you will be free. Thank you for listening!

For Episode 41 of (*both laugh*), we caught up with Nate Cook from The Yawpers for a quick hitter about his upcoming bike ride from New York to Los Angeles. Yes, you read that right...beginning on the 4th of July, Nate Cook from The Yawpers (whose 2019 Bloodshot Records release Human Question is still in heavy rotation in this house) is cycling from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. Cook took up cycling early in the pandemic, and last summer he embarked on a 700-mile ride from Denver to Tulsa as a fundraiser for the Sweet Relief Musician's Fund. For this year's ride, dubbed Go West, Aging Man (or GxAx for short), Cook decided to go bigger, since he figures he'll be on tour every summer going forward. Two months. NY to LA. A few shows along the way. All on a bicycle, and all for Sweet Relief again. As an added bonus, GxAx has added another rider this year. Badass singer/drummer Liliana Urbain is going west to east via a more northern route; she left Washington State a couple weeks ago and is presently in Montana with her sights set on Portland, Maine! As a semi-avid road cyclist, I cannot even comprehend how hard that is (particularly given the all-time high temps lately).

For episode 40 of (*both laugh*), we went international again, this time catching up with Chachy Englund from Shanghai-based freak punk band Round Eye. The present incarnation of the band features ex-pats from three different countries (the US, Italy and Ireland), and are slated to officially release the physical version of their latest album, Culture Shock Treatment, via Sudden Death Records post haste (the digital release was handled last year by Paper + Plastick). And if you order the album (check the link below), there's a very realistic chance that it'll be in your grubby little paws WAY before anyone from the band actually sees it themselves. Such is the way of the world when you're doing the punk rock thing under the watchful eye of the CCP. We covered a lot of ground with Chachy - literally and figuratively, and he's got a fascinating first-hand perspective on the COVID outbreak (and subsequent mismanagement), making a record with the iconic Mike Watt (and having it mixed by the equally iconic Bill Stevenson), the state of international touring, and the rigors of touring mainland China as a band of outsiders...and trying to return once you've toured outside the motherland. It's a fascinating chat if I do say so myself. Wonder if Chachy and his bandmates will actually get to watch it!

tl/dr: we asked Max Collins from Eve 6 if he wanted to chat and he said sure! This episode is going live on May 27, which coincidentally marks the 21st anniversary of the first time I saw Eve 6. It was the 2000 WBCN (r.i.p.) River Rave and it took place at the old Foxboro Stadium and it featured bands like Mighty Mighty Bosstones and Everclear and Godsmack (lol) and Stone Temple Pilots and Static-X and Powerman 5000 and Cypress Hill. The turn of the century was a time, man... ANYWAY, Eve 6, in my opinion, got a little unfairly lumped in with a couple of scenes that, stylistically, they weren't really a part of. Their self-titled debut album, written while the band's members (Max Collins, Jon Siebel, Tony Fagenson) were essentially still in high school, debuted at a time in music that was probably just a bit too late for the punk revival of the mid-90s and just before the nu-metal/butt rock wave of the early 2000s. Stylistically, the band probably had more in common with Alkaline Trio (whose own debut full-length came out six months after "Eve 6) than with the likes of either Third Eye Blind or Sugar Ray or Staind or whoever they got paired with along the way. The lead single, "Inside Out," (aka "The Heart In A Blender Song") blew up and the album sold almost two million copies and so school buses turned into tour buses before very long and, well, here's the 25-cent version of what happened next: sophomore album, Horrorscope, spawned an unlikely hit ("Here's To The Night") which was probably your prom and/or graduation song if you're of a certain age, touring with Bon Jovi, third album didn't spawn a likely/unlikely "hit", band got dropped by RCA and essentially broke up, Max got sober, band reconnected, new album in 2012, bunch of 90s-band style tours, pandemic. The last year or so have found Collins and Siebel and new drummer Ben Hilzinger started working on new material, the result of which is a five-song EP, "grim value," which is due out next month (see links to the first couple videos below). It's also seen Collins reach a new level of sorta-fame via Twitter, where he's maintained the band's official feed as a mix of 90s-band shit-posting and progressive realist light-in-the-darkness (Much of it is aligned with the dance-pop self-help spiritual guru Chevy Mustang that Collins created that is, if you haven't checked it out yet, completely brilliant.) We talked about all of this and more (Jawbreaker, sobriety, touring with Bon Jovi, etc) over the course of this chat and it was super fun and I still find it amazing that he agreed to do it.

Kali Masi Drummmer John Garrison knew he loved music at an early age and was drawn to drums.  He talks to Will about growing up in the suburbs of Chicago, the formation of Kali Masi, Diy touring, European Touring, the New Kali Masi Record Laughs, and the rotoscoped music video for the song Trophy Deer.

If you've been a fan of punk rock over the last decade especially, you probably know Stefan Beham...only, you probably don't realize that you know Stefan Beham. The Austria-based graphic artist has designed tour posters and album covers and the like for a Fat Wreck Chords-heavy laundry list of artists that includes acts like NOFX and Frank Turner and Lagwagon and Get Dead and the Bombpops and Bad Cop Bad Cop and myriad more.  We caught up with Stefan recently to chat about his journey from being a kid growing up in Austria to finding punk rock to eventually working for - and with - some of the biggest names in the scene. We also talked quite a bit about his growth from visual artist to festival producer to record label head honcho, and how he's had to constantly pivot in those roles over the course of the COVID pandemic.  For more on Stefan, check out his site here: https://art.sbam.rocks/ You can also find out more about SBAM Fest 2021 (or maybe 2022) and all of the SBAM Records releases here: https://shop.sbam.rocks/  New (*both laughs*) theme song is an excerpt from [laughs] track "Hurts To Laugh." © KALI MASI 2021 ℗ Take This To Heart Records 2021

Bully #036 35 Episoden hat es gedauert. Aber nun ist sie da. Das erste Interview welches Eishockey und Umweltschutz verein. What?! Richtig. Wir haben uns mit Steve und Svante von „Save Pond Hockey“ unterhalten. Die beiden leben in Finnland und spielen leidenschaftlich gerne Pond-Hockey. Seit einigen Jahren merken sie allerdings, dass die Winter kürzer werden und es nicht mehr so kalt wird, dass man auf zugefrorenen Seen Eishockey spielen kann. Grund ist dafür der Klimawandel. Um das zu ändern, haben die beiden in Helsinki lebenden Eishockey-Fans „Save Pond Hockey“ 2015 ins Leben gerufen. Mittlerweile haben sie sogar Ambassadors wie Ville Leino oder ein Viacheslaw Fetisov. Donnerwetter! Höchste Zeit, dass wir uns mit denen mal treffen. So haben sich Diana Jansen und Frank Göbel aka Goofy Schulz mit den beiden in einer lockeren Runde getroffen und über dieses globale Thema zu sprechen. Wir haben das Interview auf English geführt. Deshalb haben wir eine deutsche Übersetzung nach den Fragen für euch mit eingespielt. Voll gerne

Swag-Gefahr bei Bully! Michael Leopold hat unsere Redaktion überfallen und erzählt aus dem Nähkästchen. Der Sky-Moderator ist in Quatsch-Laune und reflektiert nicht nur sein Eishockey-Leben. Der modebewusste SC Riessersee-Fan gibt uns außerdem Nachhilfe in Sachen Punkrock-Mucke und erzählt uns, welche Band in seinem Garten ein Konzert veranstalten dürfte.

Episode is 62 is here, and we are joined by Anthony and Sam from Kali Masi. We get into the band's history, working with Jay Maas and their trips to Europe. They have just released their new album '[laughs]', and we discuss how this has been received and what to expect from the band once the world opens up a bit more. Chris and Nick also find time to talk about the new MxPx single and recent music from Dollar Signs, Eastwood and Tigers Jaw. Kali Masi's album '[laughs]' is currently available everywhere, go check it out! thewastingtimepodcast@gmail.com iTunes Instagram Twitter Facebook  

Just before the world shut down last year, Chicago's Kali Masi drove to suburban Massachusetts to hole up at Jay Maas's Getaway Recording Studio to get to work on the full-length follow-up to their 2017 debut, Wind Instrument (Take This To Heart Records). Fast forward a year (March 26th, to be precise) and the band unleashed the final product, [laughs], to the masses, also via Take That To Heart Records. It is, in your humble host's opinion, is one of the best albums in recent memory. We managed to convince the quartet to forgo their regularly-scheduled band practice and, instead, to chat with us for an hour or so. We of course talked about the writing and recording processes, and the decision to embrace some of the weird directions that they scratched the surface of on Wind Instrument. We also dug into some of the different ways the band not only kept busy but kept productive in the run-up to the album release, included a handful of brilliantly self-produced videos (see links below, especially "Trophy Deer" and "Guilt Like A Gun").

Chicago's Kali Masi have been churning out some killer punk rock jams for nearly a decade now. The four-piece outfit have recently released their new album [laughs] via Take This To Heart Records, their first full length album in 4 years. Drawing easy comparisons to other Mid-West bands like Hey Mercedes, Alkaline Trio or Lawrence Arms, Kali Masi's music is layered with rich, melodic instrumentation, vocal hooks for days, and a pop-sensibility that still stays true to their punk roots. Sam and John stopped by the show to talk about the history of the band and the origins of the band name, what they've been doing during the pandemic, and to discuss some of their favorite bands coming out of the Chicago area. We spend some time discussing what touring post-pandemic may looking like, and they give me their 5 "trapped on a desert island" albums.

In der neuesten Ausgabe widmen wir uns spektakulären Inhalten und müssen uns der ein oder anderen technischen Schwierigkeit stellen. Da hat wohl die elendige MPK das ganze WLAN für sich beansprucht. Seht uns so manche Ungereimtheit hinten raus nach, Philipp hat im Schnitt so gut es geht versucht das Ganze doch noch rund zu machen. Trotzdem geht es auch diesmal wieder in die Vollen, wir haben brandaktuellen Stuff am Start: ganz frisch gibt es Punkrock von KALI MASI, ERRA frönen der Zukunft des Metal(core), lang erwartet lassen uns LANDMVRKS zu wahren Jubelstürmen hinreißen und jegliche journalistische Kompetenz vergessen und zu guter Letzt gibt es mit den Post-Metal Helden von DVNE die nötige Erdung, um die Kiste an neuen Alben wieder zu schließen. Neue Singles gibt es von RISE AGAINST, CALIBAN und BEARTOOTH, wovon uns zumindest zwei Drittel davon richtig gut gefallen. Welche das sind, dürft Ihr Euch in den folgenden 80 Minuten zur Gemüte führen. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Matt and Dante reconnect with their buddy from the road @spew_into_this also known as My Little Toni. He plays bass in @kalimasiband who joined @lessthanjake on tour back in 2019. Super funny Episode! @tourpasspodcast

As the singer and guitarist of Kali Masi, Sam Porter has performed all around the United States, toured Europe, played Riot Fest and other festivals of note, shared the stage with the likes of The Lawrence Arms and Titus Andronicus, and released one doozy of a debut album (2017's Wind Instrument). Years before he was fronting the accomplished Chicago punk quartet, Porter was a kid in McHenry, Illinois, who was honing his musical taste by listening to records he got from the library, oft-misidentified songs he pirated from LimeWire and the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater soundtrack. Back in January, Porter spoke to My First Band host Tyler Maas about Kali Masi's excellent forthcoming album — [laughs], out March 26 via Take This to Heart Records — and the thorough recording process with engineer Jay Maas (no relation!) that helped bring the record into being. Following the now-requisite discussion about the pandemic and plans for the future when the world safely opens up again, Porter talked about making up a fake band in middle school called Last In Line, joining the real band known as The Blue Waves in high school and winning a contest to record at Gravity Studios in Chicago. Over the course of the hour-plus conversation, he also mentioned taking the train a total of seven hours every Sunday in order to practice with the Blue Waves after he moved to a new city, eventually starting a band called The Howl and the process of The Howl turning into Kali Masi. My First Band is sponsored by Mystery Room Mastering and Lakefront Brewery. The show is edited by Jared Blohm. You can listen to My First Band on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify and wherever else you get podcasts. You can also listen to rebroadcasts of previous My First Band episodes on WMSE every Wednesday from noon to 12:30 p.m. CST. Music used in this episode comes courtesy of Devils Teeth ("The Junction Street Eight Tigers") and Kali Masi ("Guilt Like A Gun").

I am really pumped up about this one. John, Sam, Anthony, and Wes joined me to talk about their new album coming out on March 26 called [Laughs]. There are currently three singles out so far! Give The Stray, Trophy Deer, and Guilt Like a Gun a listen and get excited about this upcoming album. I am telling you, every song on [Laughs] could be a single, it's that good. It's a fun ride from start to finish. I really enjoyed this interview because I could tell how close Kali Masi is. Every decision is made as a group and that is what made this album so good.

Our first episode of 2021, and we are joined by Jay Maas. Jay was a founder of Boston band Defeater with whom he enjoyed a successful career. Jay talks us through his musical journey of touring the world and being signed to labels like Bridge 9 and Epitaph. Since leaving Defeater in 2015 Jay has been able to focus on the production side of music most recently working with artists like Rebuilder and Kali Masi. Jay has been working recently with Reverb.com and has launced Maastr for artists needing mastering. Chris, Nick and Jay also find time at the end of the show to discuss each of their top 5 songs of 2020. thewastingtimepodcast@gmail.com iTunes Instagram Twitter Facebook

Today we have a guest who paid us a visit back in Episode 17. She is one Kerriann Curtis. Kerriann has created an Instagram series of paintings showcasing her own work titled Art for the Afterlife, which you should most certainly check out @kerricurtisart . We discussed a piece of music by Mrs. Green Apple, a rock quintet from Tokyo. For our conversation, Kerriann has transcribed lyrics from Japanese to English of a song titled “Who Are You?” which will serve as a bit of a guidepost to our conversation. For fans of music that possess a high-octane energy such as The Get Up Kids, Kali Masi, Yellowcard and The Great Heights Band, I highly recommend making Mrs. Green Apple a staple in your record collection. Enjoy!
