I Don't Wanna Hear It

This week, we bequeath unto you, a belated one-size-fits-all Halloween episode. We talk movies, non-Misfits Halloween punk records, how Mikey narrowly avoided going full horror punk, and, for some reason, 90's electro-edgelord cyberpunks, the Prodigy.

This week, Matt and Mikey recount the darkest creative endeavor they ever became involved in: stand-up comedy. The open mic is a hellscape populated with lonely demons and only the most broken freaks will thrive there.

This week we delve into the most hard-hitting stories of the day, like how Dave Grohl feels the need to Twitter shame himself and how Linkin Park hired a cult member and it really pissed off the guy from At the Drive-In.

Shane is swimming with sharks and volcano diving, so it's just Matt and Mikey this week.

The great AI metalcore takeover has begun. We let the robots know that the way to world domination is not through Jesus Piece's Spotify profile. Also, Shane's mom almost got in a fight at an AFI show. And finally, the singer of Cancer Christ goes full Nic Cage Rampage. Matt Moment will return September 9, but he sent us some great audio updates from the Contact tour which have been inclu...

This week we swap opinions on and stories of the many, many, many great bands playing FYA in January 2025. The promoters changed the venue since the initial announcement so we didn't really talk about the controversy, but we did express our displeasure with Think I Care not even getting the logo treatment on the flier. We also talk Todd Jones's probable sociopathy and now he might kill u...

This week we reach new acceptance and understanding of the term "skramz," insult right wing douchebag Tim Pool's thin-skinned land grab of a DIY skatepark, and talk the debatable importance of hardcore music videos. "Blistered" by Strife "Get Beer" by White Kaps "Inevitability (Killed Mikey the Meatball)" by We're Not Dead On this week's Right...

We had a litany of technical difficulties this week, the main result being that Mikey sounds like he recorded from inside a tin can. Also, Matt was sick, out of town, and podcasting from a hotel bed like a duke. Our apologies. We did our best. Next week we will return to our regularly scheduled fidelity. This week we get into the phenomenon of conservative punks, which we're pretty sure isn&a...

This week we run down the best of the best records for the year so far. No surprise, Mikey picked mostly metal, Matt picked mostly hardcore, and Shane picked mostly stuff to upset Mikey.

This week we fondly remember the NBA Jam line-up, talk Eighteen Visions' oft-forgotten, far-reaching influence, remind each other how punk Tracy Chapman continues to be, recall the filth of the Lions' Den, and lay out the pump and dump economics of hardcore booking agents and managers.

Rapid devolvement within a mosh pit microcosm, black metal theater kids, and more bands dropping summer festivals. Oh, and Matt's band played a show.

This week we pontificate on what not to eat before moshing, how to utilize an Extreme Gulp for theft, the abusive relationships we've had with hardcore, and what, if any, effect the current renewed interest in "guitar music" will have on the underground. Yes, we talk about Knocked Loose and Show Me the Body and you're just going to have to deal with that. Featured on this week&...
