The New Scene - Episode 269: Luke Garro of Piebald + Artist Spotlight: The Phantom Eye Keith sits down with Luke Garro to discuss growing up in Connecticut, being inspired by the local scene, Luke's early days in music and how Luke joined Fastbreak by spontaneously jumping on the kit at one of their shows. We also discuss the history of Fastbreak, signing with Big Wheel Recreation, their recent repress of their debut LP "Fast Cars, Fast Women", In My Eyes, the history of the band, the story behind the cover art of their debut LP "The Difference Between" by Pushead, Piebald, how Luke joined the band, upcoming Piebald news and more.

Today's guest makes me feel so excited and I just can't hide it. It's The Pointer Sisters. No. No it's not. Please welcome David Hakopyan of Antenna The End. And I have to thank Jamie Park and Teen Cancer America for connecting us. David grew up in one of the biggest Armenian communities in the world outside of Armenia, itself. He was influenced equally by rock and Armenian folk music. But music wasn't always his focus. For a while as a teen, he thought he might be an illustrator. He was the counterfeit Pushead guy in his school. And if that doesn't make sense, it will after you listen. Or go look up Pushead. He got serious about music when he started playing in an Armenian, revolutionary, folk, alternative rock band with Serj Tankian called Forever Young. After cheating on that band with another, he started Soil with Serj and Daron Malakian. David discusses the one and only live show they played and its biggest pitfall. David and his bands, like Apex Theory & Mt. Helium, have always been hyper-focused on sounding original, to the point of making sure no one was listening to the big rock stations in LA. They'd do spot checks on each others' radios. David's new band is Antenna The End. And you can absolutely tell that it's David's band. He started writing after the kinds of personal issues that get a guy writing music. He also tells me when he came up with the band's unique name. The debut EP will be out soon, but David gives us a sneak peak at the music and stories behind the band's formation and the music he's created. Check them out @antennatheend on Instagram & Facebook. Keep an eye out for the EP release in early August. And give him a call at…you know what, don't do that. BUT, follow us @PerformanceAnx on Instagram & Twitter. Reach out, we don't bite.

Oak Adams is a black & grey artist from the United States. Drawing inspiration from artists such as The Gurch, Paul Booth, Todd McFarlane, Pushead and The Darkness comic books, he knew early on that the darker side of art was what he wished to pursue. His preferred style leans strongly toward black & grey bio-organic & the macabre, Norse Mythology and portraits. He picked up his first tattoo machine on his own in 1995, but secured an apprenticeship in Indiana with Dave Pritchard in 1997. After traveling extensively, he now makes Salt Lake City, Utah his home. He is the owner of Painted Temple and is an investor in local businesses and real estate. Oak and Mark discuss their potential business deal together and Oak's tattooing history.

We all love our Heavy Metal. But Metalheads are nothing if not diverse, with a wide variety of interests outside of our album collections. The creators of our beloved genre are no different. Some artists have excelled in their chosen hobbies. This week we discuss which artists and activities we'd love to join in their endeavours. How 'bout "football" with Steve Harris. Golfing with Alice Cooper. Or skating with Pushead himself. The possibilities are endless. And some may just be feasible. Musically, we crank some new and used from Nasty Savage, Deranged, Cloak, Culted, Nocturnal Departure, Rotten U.K., Gamerra and introduce Finnish rockers Magick Touch in this weeks "Indie Spotlight".

Let's go SLOOOWWW with Bobby Ferry from the legendary doom/stoner/metal band, 16. I think this band is really interesting as they have watched scenes come and go but kept on doing their thing and are releasing some of the best music of their career. Bobby and I discuss the skateboarding scene in the OC, the impact of Pushead on their band and drug use. It was a very interesting discussion with a person I didn't know at all, and now...we can talk about 90's hardcore as friends.

This week we're discussing every album by Septic Death. If you aren't familiar with the band, you're definitely familiar with their singer, Pushead (aka Brian Schroeder), who is most known for his incredible artwork. Everything from Metallica, to the Misfits, to having his own limited edition Nike sneaker, Pushead's style is unmistakable. Septic Death, however, is one of the most absolutely insane hardcore punk bands to ever exist. Words do not do them justice. They're weird, folks.Closing track: “Fear” from Need So Much Attention…Acceptance of Whom EP (1984)Spotify playlistshttps://open.spotify.com/user/motherpuncherincPatreonhttps://www.patreon.com/everyalbumeverMerchhttps://pandermonkey.creator-spring.com/Instagram:Mike @pandermonkeyAlex @motherpuncherTom Osman's stuff:Debut album on BandcampSubstackInstagramTwitterFacebookMike's Picks:Need So Much Attention… Acceptance of Whom EP (1984) — Best Record, Personal FavoriteNow That I Have the Attention What Do I Do with It?

Two game-changing monsters of the underground, neck-to-neck in our annual MARCH MAYHEM tournament bracket. The KOPPOD troika argued and deliberated through Pushead's entire Unofficial Top 100 of the 80s and two records stood alone at March's close: #25 NEGATIVE APPROACH 'Negative Approach' 7" vs. #11 G.I.S.M. 'Detestation' 12" These records speak for themselves, but if you're reading this then you should listen to the KINGS speak on them as well. They start with a basic gestalt and discussion of each group before voting on their favorite, thus deciding the winner of this year's MARCH MAYHEM tournament bracket. After voting, each of the esteemed judges explains their selection. Thank you for joining us and following along with this tournament bracket, big thanks to our guest judges (NATE and GREY from DEMOLISTEN, CONNER and COUGAR), thanks to everybody who shared their own takes with us, and a very special thanks to PUSHEAD for compiling this list. If you wanna sound off on this one, you can call the KOPPOD HOT TAKE HOTLINE at 585-348-8203 - if we get some good voicemails we'll play 'em on the pod.

THE KINGS continue their second annual MARCH MAYHEM tournament bracket. This year they work their way through Pushead's Unofficial Top 100 of the 80s. This list, compiled and published in 1990, constituted the bulk of Pushead's final "Puszone" column in Thrasher Magazine. The top 28 records got a first round buy. In this qualifying round, the KOPPOD hosts embarked upon a mission fit only for punk fanatics of their caliber: listen to 72 releases, and compare them to one another based on random tournament seeding. It should be no surprise that they got the job done. They discussed, dissected, and debated the releases and their relative merits in each round. It's all here for your listening pleasure, and it's split up into two parts for your mental digestion. If you have yet to acquaint yourself with the Puszone list and the music referenced therein, the list is linked below along with a YouTube playlist for this qualifying round. Let us know what you think of the troika's choices; it's a certainty that these episodes will ignite debate and derision. And we love to hear it!

The talk also connects Strain to SNFU, Gob, Undertow, Metallica, Pushead, and a bunch of Vancouver hardcore bands. 2021 marks the 25th anniversary of Here and Now, and you can check the record out through Apple Music and Spotify.

Just to keep things totally hermetically sealed, in this episode Jason and Martin begin with talk about last episode's guest Pete Chramiec, and Martin's cursed relationship with his band Verbal Assault. From there the conversation veers to D.C. band Beefeater's first tour west and the New Method warehouse where they played a show with 7 Seconds. The two dissect the distinctions between 'Peace Punk' and 'Crust Punk' which leads the two to reminisce about their stop by the ant-infested barracks of the Sylmar band Iconoclast. From there it's tales of Pushead and more! Thank you for listening! Bumper music by Beefeater --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jason-traeger/support
Iconic artist Brian Mercer joins us for this chapter of the diary. Brian's work has graced the album covers, tour posters, and merch not just for iconic heavy music acts like High on Fire, Mastodon, and Isis, but well into the broader musical scope for artists like Marilyn Manson, Skrillex, and Eric Church. He talks about being a child of Pushead, BMX, and comic books, incorporating nature into his work in an effort to combat anxiety, navigating the tricky world of logos and fonts, tapping into his family's Columbia Record House collection, not giving a shit if "rock is dead", his reaction to the Mercer Wall, why Mastodon can do whatever they want, embracing Gritty, Weedeater's sloths and monkeys, and how he can't control what people do, but will still call some bullshit.You can see more Brian's work at his website and pick up prints and other works at his Big Cartel page.

HOUSECLEANING/LISTENER QUESTION First race of the season is in the books “John and Kyle, Great to hear a new episode guys! My favorite show to date for sure. A question I've had for you guys that I've been wanting to ask for a while is whether or not either of you actually listen to music when putting in miles on the bike? I definitely refrain from plugging in when riding singletrack most importantly due to just being aware of other trail users, but when it comes to gravel or road riding, are tunes a necessary component for your training? Finally, thanks for the tip on Achilles! Super sweet stuff. Take care guys. Grant” RECORD REVIEW World Be Free – 'The AntiCircle' Released: February 5 2016 – Revelation Records World Be Free's story began in the fall of 2014, when Scott Vogel (Terror, Buried Alive), Joe Garlipp (Envy), Andrew Kline (Strife), and Sammy Siegler (Judge, CIV, Rival Schools) met monthly to write classicinfluenced, melodic and positive hardcore. All of this developed without a label, budget or any mention to the outside world. When Siegler scored some recording time at Hurley, they flew in Arthur Smilios (Gorilla Biscuits, CIV) to cover on bass and hustled into the studio. Vogel and Terror bandmate Nick Jett then tracked vocals at Jett's studio, passing the ball to Walter Schreifels (Rival Schools, Quicksand, Gorilla Biscuits) for one final guest spot. With their album finished and its release fast approaching, Top 5 – Primal Reaction Records. Something about these 5 records speaks to that dark place in your soul. Pure raw aggression and power.. UNBROKEN – Life Love Regret – 1994 New Age Records Life. Love. Regret. is everything that hardcore is. It is the heart, the soul, the sound, and the attitude. The music is loud and in your face, but most importantly, passion is put at the top. This album is a monument by a monolithic band. From the crushing riff and sinister notes at the beginning of "D4" to the ending feedback in the nine minute "Curtain." Breather Resist – Only In The Morning – March 25, 2003 Deathwish Inc Breather Resist formed in 2002 and recorded 8 songs, 4 of which were on handmade demos. These 8 songs became their first EP, "Only in the Morning", released on Deathwish, Inc.. Their first LP, Charmer, was released on Jade Tree Records in October 2004, having been produced by Kurt Ballou. In December 2005, lead singer Steve Sidoni left the group; Buried Alive – Death Of Your Perfect World – April 20, 1999 Victory Produced by Steve Evetts at Trax East Studios. It is the band's only album with Jesse Muscato on drums. CURSED – I – February 23, 2005 Deathwish Inc Formed in 2001 a year after the breakup of The Swarm aka Knee Deep in the Dead. Known for their trademark nihilistic and dystopian lyrical themes, stark classic horror imagery and loud, abrasive live shows. Integrity – Those Who Fear Tomorrow – 1991 Overkill Records Integrity's For Those Who Fear Tomorrow is a hardcore juggernaut that has lurked in infamy for over 15 years. Recorded in 1991, For Those Who Fear Tomorrow is often credited as on of the first true metalcore" albums. While hardcore crossover bands like the Cro Mags and Corrosion of Conformity had existed before Integrity, few were prepared for the world Integrity brought to life with their debut album. FTWFT's razor sharp metallic edges, driving hardcore verses, and gloomy breakdowns set a stage for one of hardcore's most messianic and charismatic front men: Dwid Hellion. The album has been issued in close to 10 different editions and formats. It has never received proper distribution or promotion, but it has survived: a truly bastardized child of hardcore, metal, and a darkness of the soul.
