The Cynimatics will be joining Bill on Episode 744 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show.

Cynimatics is a band from Pittsburgh PA that combines the unlikely genres of 3rd wave ska and late 2000s neon era pop punk. Equal parts “Turn The Radio Off” by Reel Big Fish, and “Nothing Personal” by All Time Low if you will. The band performed regionally in Pennsylvania and the surrounding areas from 2013-2020 opening for some notable pop punk acts of the time such as Yellowcard, Carousel Kings, and Freshman 15 – as well as nationally touring bands on more of the ska side of things like Survay Says, The Supervillains, and Ballyhoo! Always trying to bridge the gap between the two mostly unrelated genres, the band made many connections in the scene and is still releasing music to this day. Their most recent album “Truancy, Anti-Poetry, and Other Stories” produced by Paul Menotiades (Punchline, The Composure) is out now and available on all streaming services

Dream the Heavy expressed their gratitude for the recognition, stating that they never imagined being recognized as top-rated in a city filled with so many incredible artists and creators. They credit their success to a combination of the right chemistry, hard work, significant investment in their craft, and a bit of luck. This recognition, voted on by their supporters, means the world to the band as they continue to pursue their passion for creating music that reflects life, love, and hope.

In this episode, Bill and Dream the Heavy will discuss what’s been happening in the band since their last appearance, upcoming projects, and more about their journey.

On Episode 742 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show, Bill will be joined by Fridge Rock/Pantry Punk band The Parishables in support of their upcoming music video release for the song “I’m Pissed Off.”

The story of The Parishables dates back to 1996 when frontman Brandon Parish and drummer EJ Novak first met in kindergarten, long before their dreams of performing in front of crowds ever took shape. During middle school, they picked up their instruments and formed their first band together, sparking their shared dream of making music. However, like many young projects, the band was short-lived, pushing them to develop their skills individually.

EJ continued playing drums throughout high school, eventually forming bands and performing at local venues, though without major commercial success. Meanwhile, Brandon recorded original songs on cassette tapes and jammed with other small bands but eventually stepped away from the music industry, content to play on his own at home.

Years later, fate reconnected the two musicians when EJ reached out to Brandon, who had recently reignited his passion for music after attending a Slipknot concert. The timing was perfect, and The Parishables were born out of their revived musical energy. In June 2024, Trevor Murray joined the band as their bassist, transforming The Parishables into a Fridge Rock/Pantry Punk trio.

With 15 years of passion behind them, they are ready to share their unique sound and energy at venues near you. Tune in to this episode to hear more about their journey, the release of their music video, and their future plans!
