Frizz and Bob raise a mug of coffee and sit down with Nashville duo Friendship Commanders, a band that makes heaviness sing and melody hit like a hammer. Buick Audra and Jerry Roe join in to talk about their new album BEAR (out NOW on Magnetic Eye Records) - a powerful, soul-baring journey through belonging, identity, and resilience that bridges hyper-melodic light and crushing weight. We dive into what makes this album shine through the darkness, classic horror films as creative fuel, Gen X culture and disillusionment, sludgegaze, and the lasting influence of Steve Albini.
