Although a little late, due to some Technical Difficulties at JaM Sessions Studios (in the form of a huge upgrade to the recording gear and a new PC) Jeph and his Co-Host this week, The long and loyal Top Fan Richard Stanley himself proudly bring to you: The Man, The Myth, The Legend that IS Under Stress: Gabriel Gourd.
Jeph and Richard catch up with each other after a VERY long time and talk about everything from living in New York and how that vibe effects his soundscapes, tp travelling in Germany and how that formed his early world views, and how Synth can be more than just an instrument and more of a texture to be added to the canvas that is your ears.
Download now and go DEEP with the guys as they talk about some of the most esoteric topics ever discussed on this show and find out just WHO IS Gabriel Gourd and what it means to be Under Stress and how we're all maybe experiencing a little United Division!

Jeph and Darcy hop in the time machine with this week's guests and head back to 1993 and get a chance to catch up with Walter Mason and Joe Landry  of Hard Ground. This Toronto-based Thrash Metal band made up of: Lloyd Mackay - Vocals Derek Rockall -Guitars Walter Mason - Guitars Joe Landry - Bass John Sagias - Drums,  were legendary in the Canadian scene and absolute Gods in 14 year old Jeph's eyes! We give their self-titled album album a listen and with such tunes as "Brickwall", "Hard Not To Feel It", "White Trash" and "Museum of Man" you can get a good feeling for the power and passion these guys poured into the album AND their lives.
Download now and get the skinny on the recording process and memories from then and what the guys are up to now! We even get a surprise call from Derek Rockall to start things off!

Rock Johnson, known to many as vocalist/guitarist of the bands Broke on Payday, Chaos Theory, Low Cut Monday & From All Sides, has been an integral part of songwriting teams in varied acts since the early nineties.
The Bridge is the fourth release from Rock and may feel like a logical forward step building on his three prior releases “And Begin”, “Disc Zero” and “Reasons”. Those who know him for his hard rock roots may be in for a bit of a surprise.

Download this week's episode and hear how he got his start and where his deep passion for music came from, but also find out where he's been, and how a heart attack at a young age has changed him and made him even MORE Rock solid!!
