Mass is not only a punk rock legend, he's smart as hell. He speaks multiple languages including Spanish that he taught himself in 3 weeks! He went on to get a PhD in Spanish. Also I was uber impressed when I stumbled across his Ted Talk on Don Quixote called, Oppression and the art of subversion. Oh and to top it off he's a bass player! Mass has produced a massive amount of albums including Rise Against, Anti-Flag, and Alkaline Trio.

Jughead’s Basement featuring Moral Crux’s 1998 release Something More Dangerous released on Panic Button Records. Moral Crux formed in 1983 with frontman then and now James Farris and the then guitar player Jeff Jenkins. Soon down the line they would add the incredible bass player Justin Warren and they would go on to release various recordings with a diverse amount of smaller labels such as Velveteen Records, Polemic records, Vandal Children Records, Monitor Records before Ben Weasel approached them and convinced them they needed a proper release on the Lookout/Panic Button record label he and I were running at the time. The album was recorded with Mass Giorgini at Sonic Iguana in Lafayette Indiana, and now on this episode we bring you singer songwriter James Farris, Bass payer Justin Warren, and producer Mass Giorgini to give us a lesson in good strong pop punk songwriting from Moral Crux  ONE TIME DONATIONS TO JUGHEAD'S BASEMENT: OR PATREON LINK
Una banda de hardcore melódico con una fuerte puesta en escena que viene de la capital musical de Colombia, donde los sonidos autóctonos sobrepasan al Rock pero ha visto un crecimiento imparable desde a mediados del 2000. A.C.M.E. aunque muy creativos y persistentes empiezan a florecer cuando la escena nacional empezaba a decaer y la frecuencia de conciertos comenzaba a disminuir. Juan Acosta nos cuenta la historia de la banda y como lograron trabajar con grandes ingenieros como Mass Giorgini y Paul Miner.
