This weeks episode we set down with Aimee Argote of Des Ark to talk about 2011's Don't Rock the Boat, Sink the Fucker. This is by far my favourite episode I've ever done. Aimee talks openly about songwriting, the process behind her records, time spent recording with Kurt Ballou and eventually lending some vocals to a Converge record. We finish off talking about what led her to walking away from music completely in 2017 and how her life took a new route.

This week we sit down with Touche Amore vocalist Jeremy Bolm to talk about 2011's Parting the Sea Between Brightness and Me. The record was a staple of "The Wave" movement in aggressive independent music but we explore how it became the spring board that transcended all that and turned Touche into the influential staple they are now. Jeremy takes us through his time hanging around Deathwish to eventually releasing records with them, what the recording process was like with Ed Rose in the Get Up Kids home studio and the eventual move to Epitaph records where they reside today.

We're back with season two. We're starting it off by looking back on 2010's End Measure Mile from Make Do and Mend. I sat down with brother James and Matt Carroll (vocals/guitar and drums respectively) and guitarist Mike 'Toole to go over the recording in Boston, working with Paper + Plastik records and the eventual move to Rise Records. The band was incredibly candid looking back on their time with the band and I think this episode really gives you a sense of who these guys are and how they gave everything to this band.

In 2008, Buffalo NY's Lemuria put out their debut LP, Get Better, via Asian Man Records. It started a 4 LP run that lasted around a decade where we saw a band truly embody a DIY ethos from releasing their own music to printing their own merchandise and booking their own tours. We also examine the illustrious friendship between Ozzella and Kerns and how they connected and got closer through their art from the loss of a parent to the great insecurity that sometimes comes from releasing music to the world. Through Get Better we examine the growth of Lemuria from a small band in Buffalo to international touring act.
