Chord Progression Podcast: The Gateway to New Rock and Metal Music

Do you remember when you fell in love with your first band or artist that you found all on your own? It was one of the most magical moments of your life, and one that has influenced the music that you love and listen to forever.

Today, we have an artist that not only embodies that in the music that she creates, but the concepts of gaining new perspectives about yourself in the process as well.

Lea from lolitslea joins the Chord Progression Podcast today! With her neon pop punk sound and new album "Nothing Lasts Forever" coming out on October 11th, join us and discover lolitslea as we discuss:

• The backstory of Lea getting into music, and how a viral moment from her acapella group in college showed her that a career in music was a viable option.
• Why the music that you first fall in love with on your own as a kid shapes and influences your life going forward, leading to the neon pop punk sound she created.
• A look into the album Nothing Lasts Forever, and how one song written about the selling of her Nintendo DS leads to a message of lost memories we wish we still had.

Kevin's Final Thought; The Band Keeps Growing, Deservedly

The music industry is constantly evolving, and the past 5 years have seen some of the most drastic change in how bands market themselves, deliver their music, and are more likely to go independent. So how are record labels adapting to the times?

We have seen a trend of more bands going towards smaller labels to fill their needs. And what we discovered was that a people-first and relationship-first mindest is what driving bands to more independent record labels, not a "money-first" mindset.

Peter, the founder of Manic Kat Records, is our guest today on the Chord Progression Podcast. Get in the know with this man and this label on this episode as we discuss.

• The history of Manic Kat Records, and why it was started and allowed to thrive like so many other great bands, not being afraid of the unknown.
• What the selection process and criteria looks like for Manic Kat Records to select and sign bands.
• Why the label puts the people and the artists first above what is going to make the quickest dollar, showing a better relationship between artist and label that is causing more bands to seek out labels like Manic Kat.
• The major signing Manic Kat is about to announce.

Kevin's Final Thought; Being People First, the Right Way to Go For a Record Label: (54:36)

How does a band go from reaching out to people on Reddit to market themselves, to signing with a great record label in 7 months time? The answer... ATTENTION TO DETAIL!

Whether it is the making of the music, the marketing of it, the live show, the social media game, whatever it may be, attention to detail in how you create your art and get people to know about it will reap great rewards.

Spizz and Koza from the metalcore band ADVENTS return to the Chord Progression Podcast for the second time in 2024, this time as a band signed to InVogue Records. On this epsidoe we dive into:

• The story of how Advents was spotted by & signed to InVogue Records, and why attention to detail is so important for other bands trying to follow suit.
• How the band now faces new challenges going from an independent band to singing with a record label, and why going all in on their music is the only option to continue this success.
• A look into the newest single Liminal, and how it encapsulates the band's overall writing process to be focused, but also worldly at the same time.

Bringing these guys back as a signed band made us happy! Don't miss out on discovering the next band to make this jump. Hit subscribe and be sure to discover the next great bands in rock and metal.

Kevin's Final Thought; Attention to Detail, Follow it Religiously: (56:04)

One of the coolest, and rarest things, you see from a band as they grow for many year is longtime fans joining as members. But why is it one of the coolest things you could see?

Pretty simple actually. It is because not only do those fans bring their ow personal influences to the music to help it evolve, but they have a built-in knowledge and respect of the original sound to evolve the band in the right way.

The guys from Showoff join the Chord Progression Podcast today. As they release the brand new EP, Haverstraw, enjoy as we discuss:

• How the band integrated longtime fans as band members, and did so with the most amount of success possible for their sound and for their future.
• Why they are willing to break the rules of music and music theory in order to make a good song.
• The deep reason why melody carrier emotion of a specific moment for all of us, and the understanding Showoff has when implementing that into their music.

A great band to check out that we can say is partially from our hometown. So tap that subscribe button, so you do not miss out on the vast array of more that is to come.

Kevin's Final Thought: Understand the Love of Your Favorite Music: (55:40)

Back in 2018, Kerrang called this band one of the 6 Underground Metal Bands Redefining the Scene. In the past 6 years, this band has continued to make heavy music to please your ears, and make you fall in love with metalcore all over again.

Now in 2024, how are they living up to that moniker of a band redefining the scene? Well there is a new album coming out, and it includes an evolved sound on it as well.

Jack from Pittsburgh metalcore band 156/Silence joins the Chord Progression Podcast. With the band on tour supporting Sings of the Swarm, and with a new album "People Watching" due out on September, we answer that question by discussing:

• How the band evolved their sound on People Watching by including more synths and cleans that were inspired by metalcore from the early to mid 2000's (think onlder The Devil Wears Prada for reference).
• Why trying new things with your music fosters your continued creativity, and the reason you should not just stick with the same sound and riffs over and over again.
• With a greater focus on both clean singing and unclean scraems, what Jack has been doing to prioritize his vocal health on stage.

A fantastic episode right before the release of a new dynamic album. Want more moments like this? Hit the subscribe button for more.

Today's world is dominated by a focus on the fake world of social media, and a fear to stand for anything that has the smallest chance of being seen as controversial. It has caused so much of us to focus on what is on the screen in front of us compared to real life.

However, there is a metal band that focuses on the opposite. Focusing on the world in front of us, standing up for what they believe in, and making the live experience one you need to be a part of.

Waylon from A Killer's Confession joins the Chord Progression Podcast with the release of the new album, Victim 1, ready to come out in September. So on this episode, we talk with Waylon about:

• Why he is not afraid to push out his message of protecting kids at all costs into everything A Killer's Confession does, and isn't afraid to stand tall on that.
• How social media and Tik Tok have ruined the human experience and our fight to preserve genuine art in a world of fake.
• A preview of the new album, Victim 1, and how it is conceptualized in a 3 part story that will continue as the years go on.

Has your favorite band evolved their sound over time? Of course they have! As time goes on, bands evolve their sound as life influences their interests differently.

Now this band that has toured with Alter Bridge, Mammoth WVH, and Fozzy is doing the same, and is ready to take that next step to becoming a much bigger band than you could imagine.

The guys in Pistols at Dawn join the Chord Progression Podcast today. With more new music being released in the coming year, we sit back and discuss

• The new direction of their music with a much broader influence in programming, and how Not Sorry is a taste of the sound that is to come.
• Embracing the randomness of social media to help grow the band, all while keeping each piece of content connected to the music that they are making overall.
• Why having the mindset of a headliner when you are the opening band will help you mentally drive to being that headlining act. Yes, in a manifestation way.

Fame On Fire has been on the consistent rise in the rock and metal world since the release of Welcome To The Chaos in 2022. Touring with bands like Falling In Reverse, and going out on their own headlining tour, has shown they are here to stay.

So what is next for the band in 2024 with a new album set to release in September? Well that was something that we wanted to find out as well.

Bryan from Fame On Fire returns to the Chord Progression Podcast for the first time since 2021. With a new album called The Death Card due to release on September 6th, join us as we discover the album talking about

• How the band used Tarot cards to inspire each song on the album, and why Bryan dove so deep into the Tarot world in order to ensure his lyrics hit on every level.
• A number of the unreleased songs on the album, and why Lie To Me may be Bryan's best and most vulnerable song to date.
• Why it is a good idea to show some love for your bus driver while on the road.

This is a great 30 minutes to prepare you for the next Fame On Fire album. And we are not stopping with the great album preview podcast episodes. Hit subscribe to not miss a single one.
