Naomi Bindman. I first met Naomi Bindman at a small open mic in Troy. As soon as she told her story, I felt as if an ice pick had been driven through my heart. Naomi had tragically lost her daughter, Ellen, the week after she graduated from high school in a car crash. As a […]
RRX: You are Old North End. I’m guessing that it has to do with some area, maybe in Burlington. But I can imagine all I want. Better to get it from you. What does Old North End refer to? And was it an obvious choice for a name, or was it something that everybody mulled […]
With Rock and Oddities Con coming in the end of October, we thought we’d pre-game with the band Lock 9. So we had questions. RRX: So let’s get caught up, first. You had an EP released in July, titled, accordingly, “ReLEASE.” I’m listening to one of the tracks on it, “Nowhere.” It’s got a really […]
We ask the band Speedy Ortiz six timeless questions. Their reply was speedy. RRX: Every comic book hero has an origin story. What is the origin story for the band? (points if you tell it like a comic book origin.) Sadie: In the year 2003 I was papercut by a jagged button on a Tascam […]
From the depths of Pennsylvania (Harrisburg to be exact), comes a brutal sound that you’ll love to hate and hate to love, probably a little more the second than the first. We bring you an exclusive interview with the band, Suicide Puppets. RX: You’re from Harrisburg, PA and you tour nationally. And you have a […]
GLENS FALLS – You may have heard before the old adage “Violence is not the answer”, and perhaps there are a lot of cases where this might be good advice. However, in this particular case we’re not talking about that blowhard who stole your favorite parking spot or the person at the show who gave […]
Wet Specimens Interview. We reached out to Colin from the band Wet Specimens. I had questions, and he had answers. RRX: Your demo is great, raw, and I usually don’t see demos on Bandcamp. Was there a particular reason you put the demo on Bandcamp, considering how much you’ve done since then? And can you […]
Natty Frenchy (The Skatalites ) The Skatalites have been one of the most influential ska groups of all time. The group was formed in 1964 and began as a ska group but also embraced subgenres such as Rocksteady, Reggae, 2tone, Third Wave, Ska-Jazz, Ska-Punk, Ragga, and Dub. The Skatalites have been called Jamaica’s Greatest Band […]
We reached out to Pete Mason of NYS Music and had a productive chat. RRX: Let’s talk about NYS Music, which is where I know you from. I’ll share with you that, where I live, without giving out the deets, there are NYS Music stickers in places where no sticker ought to be. And I […]
I reached out to Joe Adee from Joe Adee and the Lug Nuts. This is what he had to say. (Law and Order sound.) RRX: The band plays everything from Americana to hard edge blues. Was that clear from the band’s inception? Was there an overall vision for the band, or was it a matter […]
