That's right! It's the fantastic post-punk, punk rock, rock drummer who has played in MULTIPLE legendary bands. His newest band is the massively underrated Ghost Forest, who have a new-ish record. But you may know him from the amazing Laughing Hyenas, Mule, Denison-Kimball Trio and (for awhile.) The Jesus Lizard. Let's hear about all those bands as well as doing things with J.G. Thirlwell, Ed Roessler and the all the rest of it with a life full of fantastic rock.

The legendary Maryland/DC band has a reissue of their classic record Came by to Kill Me on Solid Brass. The first record to be written exclusively with Darren, who would later play in Office of Future Plans, Channels, Continuals and J. Robbins Band as well. A powerful live band that practiced 5 or 6 times a week and toured relentlessly, we get a rare window into a beloved band that existed in a time before the internet as we know it exists. Came by to Kill Me, recorded by J. Robbins is a great document of a the band, and is the first time it is available digitally. It's a song by song breakdown for a ripper band that were contemporaries with many Dischord faves.

Harriet the Spy has a wonderful reissue of Unfuckwithable, through Solid Brass. Jamie played the drums in that band, but is better known to most as the Impressario behind Earthquaker Devices. As well as the Party of Helicopters, Relaxer, etc. There is much talk of touring, revisiting older material, Ohio, rocking while aging, and all that. As well as, yes... quite a bit of gear talk. Yes, yes... hard to believe.

That's right, the desert rock legend himself has a new record with Brant Bjork Trio - Once Upon a Time in the Desert. In an all star band featuring Ryan Gut and Mario Lalli! So how about a floor up discussion, all the way from getting into punk rock, pots and pans, into present day. With stops along the formative early days, into Sons of Kyuss (and later Kyuss) and after. Solo records, bands, Stöner and lots more. A track by track breakthrough of Once Upon a Time in the Desert? You better believe it. This band is hitting the road hard, let's hear all about it.

It has been a long time since the Berlin based experimental duo has been on protonic reversal. There's a BEST OF the band (live in Napoli!), which also serves as a great introduction as well as other newish records. The whiplash of touring with Alexander's band Einstürzende Neubauten and then immediately doing hackedepicciotto. Soundtracks, At the Mountains of Madness, nomad life, musical discovery, touring on a budget and sometimes by train... and how not to not be completely annoyed by your musical and life partner that you are surrounded by almost the entire time.

Both Travis and Joe have been on the show a lot over the years. But this time they are raising funds for a Buddyhead documentary. A necessary salve for the lack of any kind of documentation for the entire mid-2000s world for one of the most irreverent websites to ever exist. Talk about that, scene documentation in general, movies that get it wrong and get it right and just general talk about DIY and things along those lines.

The guitarist for the fabulous band CNTS, with Matt Cronk, as well as Dead Cross with (Dave Lombardo and Mike Patton), finally comes on Protonic Reversal to talk about all things Retox, Rehab, Rock and Riff. Beating Cancer, outlasting COVID and getting one of the greatest singers and front men in rock to sing in your thrash band. Tis a great time!

Steve Moriarty wasn't just the drummer of the legendary band The Gits. He literally wrote the book on his bandmate and friend Mia Zapata. Whose life was cruelly cut short. A vital and impressive vocalist and artist on the verge of international rock stardom, the book tells Mia's story, shows the progress of her undeniable talent and her measure as a person and powerful figure in punk rock and beyond. Not a victim, an icon.

Frenching the Bully, Enter: The Conquering Chicken, Evil Stig (with Joan Jett) and so very much more.

Ed has been on Protonic Reversal with his old band Heads., but that was 4 years ago and this is Kino Motel! Different band, different genre. And now with Rosa! We got through a detailed breakdown for their new record Visions. Talk about Sea Shanties (!) and both musicians adjusting their playing style to make something new and unique. How the band come to be and how to present it live and a very detailed song by song of this incredible new record.

Bristol based Sugar Horse are purveyors of interesting heavy music, but it isn't exactly metal. They have a new one called The Grand Scheme of Things. Truth and Consequences, The live long after and the LIVE long after, thrash music and cassettes and the "live, laugh, love" of skeleton artwork.

We do a song by song breakdown of the new one, as well as lots of details, anecdotes and joke explanations of previous releases.
