Music Crush Monday

Welcome to the Music Crush Monday Podcast! Kevin presents a newer band on the show. It’s a band he recently discovered and wanted to bring it to the show before they go to Warped Tour since this is a band on the tour. What will Steve think? What surprises Steve this episode? Kevin throws a curveball and Steve is caught looking at the strike (you like that baseball analogy?) Tune in to find out what happened!

This is another band that is really good with lyrics and you can not only hear the emotion in his voice but you also hear transparency and truthfulness to it. A lot of the songs were written through personal hardship the singer faces in his life and there is a lot of respect that goes along with that. What bands do you listen to that you appreciate the valid truth they present? There is nothing wrong with a gimmick or schtick but sometimes it is nice to see some honest feelings and words being sung. Share with us on what bands you love to listen to where they have transparency in what they are doing.

As always, below are the links to the band that is being featured on this episode. If you want to take a ride on this journey with us and want to listen to this music blind, please do not look at the featured band links beforehand if at all possible.

Welcome to the Music Crush Monday Podcast! Steve is back in the driver seat in this episode to present the band of the week. The guys have a little bit of giddiness to them this week which goes to show how much fun they are having. Steve is a little leary on the band this week and wondering it will be something Kevin enjoys or not. How does Kevin feel about this one?

The guys get into another discussion about lyrics and lyrical content. More specifically about how lyrics can emotionally affect you. This week’s song has some deep meanings and it actually triggers some old emotions in Steve. It is very cool how music can do that! How music can help you in any moment, good or bad and remind you of moments in the past that may have been a hard time in your life or a good time with friends. Music is a beautiful thing!

Hello and welcome back to the Music Crush Monday Podcast. In this episode Kevin is presenting the band and asked Steve to simply open his mind going into this one. This is a band Kevin saw as an opening act and was drawn into it. They take the elements of Hip Hop and the elements of Hardcore and just smashes them together. Going into this week Kevin felt this wouldn’t be in Steve’s wheelhouse but hoping the box is opened enough for him to enjoy it.

How do you feel about language being in music lyrically? Do you feel like if it is justified and warranted you are ok with it? What if it is a word that is surrounded by hate? The guys go into discussion about cussing in music and their take on it. Reach out and let them know what you think and give your input as well on the topic. Hopefully after the music you give the songs a nice hearty “Woooooooo!” Thank you for joining us this week and every week. Be sure to check out how to contact us via social media or otherwise. Also be sure to check out the Spotify playlist to listen to more of this week’s band. See you next Monday!

Welcome back to the final installment of the Music Crush Monday Podcast - Wives Edition! Janet is leading the charge this week and there are so many rabbit trails in this episode so be prepared to go on a journey! Janet shares what she has as Steve’s top albums, a very cool and weird Warped Tour story, and Sara brings up a childhood memory as well. There are more too as well as a great discussion about the band.

What part of the country are you from? Are there better areas where bands would than others? There is an interesting discussion of how different it is to see bands in the Chicago/Milwaukee area vs. the state of New York where Steven and Janet grew up. Where Kevin and Sara grew up basically if a band was coming through most of the time they would stop in Chicago and Milwaukee. If you couldn’t go to one, you could go to the other. Janet tells a story of how she would sometimes follow a band down the state of New York. Listen to these stories, the 4 of them breaking down the band, and plenty more!

Also, a final exciting note we will be at the Milwaukee date of Warped Tour! If you happen to see this note and happen to see us at the show please make sure you say hello, we might have a little surprise for you! We will see you there!

We have another special episode of the Music Crush Monday Podcast! We are on week 3 of Wife Takeover but this time around, Sara is presenting the band! She is terrified to do this but nails it and the 4 hosts on this episode have a great conversation!

Isn’t it amazing when you come across lyrics that just hit you in a way that makes you pump your fist in excitement? There is a good explanation of the “beef” this band has with another and there are some really intense lyrics in the second song played. Have you ever had a situation in life where you wanted to use such passion in your words to someone? Or would you be like Janet where you just get mad and want just swear at the other person only to later think of something amazing to say? Listen in as the discussion is on the band’s history, the “beef”, and more!

Don’t forget to check out the spotify playlist where for this week we are putting in the beef song and the response from the other band. Tune in next week as Wife Takeover continues! Thank you for joining us on this fun journey.

Welcome back to the Music Crush Monday Podcast! This is episode two of Wives Edition or as we called it, “Wife Takeover” In this episode Kevin quickly realizes that he does nothing to contribute to the show!

Please check out our social media pages for pictures of that! There are plenty of topics covered in this episode even the discussion of a Man Crush is covered!

How do you feel about music that is just fun and makes you just extremely happy? There are times in the week where you just want to drive around with the windows down and the tunes loud. This band definitely brings that feeling out. It is like a party! Steve brings a live acoustic version of a song and you can only picture yourself sitting on a beach listening to it. What bands or songs do you listen to that put in that similar mood? Reach out to us via social media or through our email. See the links below!
