Cutter's RockCast

Lead singer Mike Protich and guitarist Dave McGarry of the band Red Sun Rising joined me in front of some fans live at Rock USA, and just in time for them to see my phone be rescued from the backstage bathroom! Fun times with good friends on the music festival circuit.

Kaytie and I caught up with the always amazing Zoltan Bathory of Five Finger Death Punch backstage at Rock USA.

Ok so thanks to a random Twitter conversation (you can follow us @cuttermedia or @ktrgrocks) Kaytie and I had to discuss farting and pooping, but the real basis of this conversation is about the music industry as a whole. Thanks to an interview that Revolver Magazine did with Rob Zombie. That interview can be found at revolvermag.com.

Sum 41's new album 'Order in Decline' is going to be out on July 19th. It's time to catch up with lead singer Deryck Whibley. Just a quick conversation about the song "Out of Blood," the new record, playing a Metallica medley, and the power of a live punk show.

Years ago Kaytie and her then co-host Wes Styles replaced the long running, nationally syndicated morning show Free Beer and Hot Wings on Kaytie's former radio station in Springfield, IL. When that happened there were words said by listeners and more importantly by then Free Beer and Hot Wing's co-host Eric Zane. Kaytie was hurt by this and for good reason. In this episode she explains her side of...

This tour just started so do yourself a...

Finally Kaytie and I are back at with a conversation between just the two of us and not one of those pesky rockstars. (joking of course.) From bands we've never seen, twitter conversations, poop and what's up with Apple, this is Cutter's Rockcast episode 135.

Architects man, this band...wow. Their latest album 'Holy Hell' is just a fantastic metal album that hits deep. Their show is intense and incredible to watch. Yes I'm a fan. Talking about this record, their music and of course their fallen brother was just an amazing conversation to have. Listen to the talk and make sure you listen to this album, and their old ones as well.
