Sponsor: The Injured List Return With “One More Show”

The Injured List

The Injured List were featured on the Absolute 100 in 2009. And recently, a documentary called The Lost Scene was released about the old music scene around Adrian, Michigan. The band got back together to write a song for the documentary, and turned it into a music video. It’s called “One More Show.” It’s available on all streaming platforms.

The band is currently working on a new album and you can find more information on Facebook.

Interview: Tyler Posey and Mike Henneberger

Tyler Posey and Mike Henneberger

This past week, I was fortunate enough to re-connect with author Mike Henneberger who wrote Rock Bottom at the Renaissance: An Emo Kid’s Journey Through Falling In and Out of Love In and With New York City. Mike Henneberger chose veteran actor/musician Tyler Posey to record the audiobook, that has recently been released. In this interview, Mike, Tyler and I discuss the importance of working consistently on our mental health, the process Tyler went through for recording this audiobook and what made this project different than being on screen, and also how Mike has been constantly promoting his memoir in hopes that others will benefit from his story.

Review: Fenix TX – Lechuza

Of all the bands that got attention during the boom of the pop-punk and Drive-Thru Records era, I always thought that Fenix TX didn’t get enough love. Their self-titled debut (after their official name change) launched their first legitimate hit in “All My Fault” and had several other tracks on the album that could’ve been just as successful with the right commercial push. Lechuza brought some added pressure since they were expected to outsell their MCA/Drive-Thru Records debut and take their sound to new and exciting directions. They officially kicked off this era of the band with the single, “Threesome” that received moderate MTV2 video airplay and some success with the Warped Tour crowd. With great guitar work, solid pop hooks, and a fresh sound to go into this album cycle, why did Lechuza not get the same amount of attention as their colleagues on the same label?
