Happy New Year, Horror Fans! Stef (@witchxpudding) and Matt start the new year in a place where horror film & literature merge. Antlers is based off of the short story “The Quiet Boy” by Nick Acosta of Channel Zero, published in Guernica Magazine (https://www.guernicamag.com/the-quiet-boy/). Trigger Warning: Child Abuse is a heavy theme, Wend*go is said A LOT and Sk*nw*lker once. This episode was edited by Stef. Visit us at ghostinthemagazine.site or follow us on twitter @gitmpodcast. Thank you Nate for the tunes, soundcloud.com/nfr-1.
At the moment, there is no label doing it better than NMZ. There is something for everyone at the label, and it has all been put together by Nick Acosta. In a little under five years, Nick has put together an incredibly strong catalogue of releases from bands across the North East US and into Canada. Many of the LP's, EP's and singles from NMZ this year are sure to hit various "... of the year" lists, so get a head of the curve and tune into Nick and I discussing the label, starting as a Zine, and how some of the bands have been foundational in the labels growth, Tracks Played:1. G.I. Bill - "Wednesday Service"2. Downward - "Line"3. Spite House - "Melt"4. Sunstroke - "Buzzer Beater"5. Prize Horse - "Far"6. Cape Fade - "The World Is Fine"7. Instill - "Place of Doubt"8. Excide - "Flip"
Terror are the most important modern hardcore band, so we figured we'd link up with fellow Terror enjoyer Nick Acosta of New Morality Zine to give their body of work a proper dive. We talk about our respective relationships with Terror and go through their (very extensive) discography with a fine-toothed comb. Topics include Scott's crazy Buffalo work ethic, Todd Jones' riff supremacy, Dave Wood's positive straight edge influence, and the power of having a cohesive aesthetic and ethos. Terror deserve every bit of praise they get. All hail the Lords of Pro-Core. Nick is a real heavy hitter and NMZ has been busy putting out some of the best hardcore and hardcore-adjacent material available. Go get yourself in the know at newmoralityzine.com.

Punk Rock Collaboration 11 with Nick Acosta One of the awesome things we would see in punk is at shows when musicians from different bands would join forces on stage or when one of your favorite punk singers would lend their growl to some gang vocals on another band's record. We wanted to create that same thing here at PRC. On this punk rock collaboration, Josh and Mike sit down and chat with Nick Acosta, a Chicago area English teacher and the man behind New Morality Zine. By day Nick teaches the youth of the Chicagoland area and by night he puts out records, shirts, and a zine. We ask him how he juggles it all, how the hardcore scene impacted him as a teacher, and what keeps him going doing both. This was a great conversation with a great guy about teaching, music, and juggling it all. So get your scissors, xerox machine, and glue sticks ready...lets make a zine! Twitter twitter.com/punkclassrooms twitter.com/educhefearnshaw twitter.com/JoshRBuckley Intro music - "Fall Risk" by Sun Stroke Outro music - "Subsystem Recognition" by Fake Eyes Find Nick online www.newmoralityzine.com instagram.com/newmoralityzine twitter.com/newmoralityzine
You want to start a podcast but you have no idea what to do. You hire an audio engineer, book studio time and get started. It's expensive and you're not sure if it is worth it and that is audio only. What if you could do it all yourself? Nick was faced with that exact situation. We helped him, through the Power of Podcasting, take on the entire process, plus video and live streaming for less than what he was paying the studio. He now does a podcast 5 days a week on 2 separate shows. Join us to hear his story.

The last interview of 2012 featured director Nick Acosta and actors Emily Sandifer & TJ Dalrymple- the stars of a seductive little fan film based on the best selling novel 50 Shades of Grey. Just another trashy romance, you say? Decide for yourself. Nick spilled his guts on the juicy stuff and got to the bottom of why he chose to attack such a controversial and sexual subject.
