10 DIC 2022 · It's hard to discuss British rock band Badfinger and NOT focus on the tragic details of their too-short career. This week's guest, legendary Miami music maven Rich Ulloa (Yesterday & Today Records, Y&T Music), doesn't shy away from the dark parts, but much prefers to focus on the wonderful music these four lads from Swansea gifted the world.

3 DIC 2022 · With their third full-length album, 2011's 'The English Riviera', British band Metronomy transitioned from garish electro-pop to a sleek, sophisticated sound that's as much Steely Dan as Daft Punk. Our guest, Scottish singer/songwriter and producer Joshua Mackenzie (The Joshua Hotel, Lional), found inspiration for his own music in leader Joseph Mount's lush-yet-quirky songs about - among other things - his hometown of Torbay in Devon that make up this beguiling record.

19 NOV 2022 · Listening back to it now, it's hard to believe that Bad Religion's seventh studio album - 1993s 'Recipe For Hate' - was at the time considered a polarizing record that many hardcore fans felt was a sell-out. 30 years later, it's clear this was a band at the top of their game - maturing and expanding musically while still delivering ferociously intelligent songs about class, religion and navigating a treacherous path towards the 21st century. Our guest, personal trainer and Taekwon-Do Studio owner Aaron Fruitstone, makes the case that their brand of cerebral punk is as presciently valid now as it was when he was an angry teen.
"Well madness reigned and paradise drowned
When Babel's walls came crashing down
Now the echoes roar for a story writ
That was hardly understood
And never any good." Songs featured in this episode: Recipe For Hate (Live Hollywood Palladium, 2004) - Bad Religion; Strike First - Leo Birenberg and Zach Robinson; No Control, Only Entertainment - Bad Religion; White Riot - The Clash; Commando - Ramones; Recipe For Hate, Kerosene - Bad Religion; Vigil Smile - Claw Hammer; American Jesus - Bad Religion; Porch - Pearl Jam; Portrait Of Authority - Bad Religion; House Of Wolves - My Chemical Romance; Wichita - Karen Landau and Greg Leisz; Man With A Mission, All Good Soldiers, Watch It Die - Bad Religion; Still In Hollywood - Concrete Blonde; Struck A Nerve - Bad Religion; Harder Than You Think - Public Enemy; My Poor Friend Me - Bad Religion; Growing Up - Fall Out Boy; Lookin' In - Bad Religion; Kids Of The Black Hole - Adolescents; Don't Pray On Me - Bad Religion; Sorrow - Greg Graffin (Live acoustic); Modern Day Catastrophists, Skyscraper, Stealth, Skyscraper (Piano version) - Bad Religion
12 NOV 2022 · Buckle-up listeners! This week's guest, Jeff Kaiser (https://linktr.ee/floridasoundarchive), brings us a record - and genre - that got his teenage self extremely high: It's the 1995 debut album by Tampa Death Metal supergroup Six Feet Under (featuring members of Cannibal Corpse and Obituary), 'Haunted'. With a slightly groovier, more riff-heavy sound than your standard Death Metal fare, its horror-themed songs about zombies, werewolves and the darker side of existence just might get under your skin. Added bonus: your parents will HATE it! Songs featured in this episode: Suffering In Ecstasy - Six Feet Under; If This Is Love - Charlie Pickett & The Eggs; Buzzard Dance - Billie Stewart (Songs of the Seminole Indians of Florida 1931-1933); A Skull Full Of Maggots - Cannibal Corpse; Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment - Ramones; The Enemy Inside - Six Feet Under; Children Of The Grave - Black Sabbath; Silent Violence, Lycanthropy, Still Alive, Beneath The Black, Human Target, Remains Of You, Suffering In Ecstasy - Six Feet Under; Better You, Better Than Me - Judas Priest; Suck My Kiss - Red Hot Chili Peppers; Tomorrow's Victim - Six Feet Under; A New Hope - Amboog-A-Lard; Torn To The Bone, Haunted - Six Feet Under; Veil Of Maya - Cynic; Stepping Stone - Six Feet Under
5 NOV 2022 · Record store owner and self-professed 'music geek' David Lewis (Elizabeth's Records - Columbus, OH) thinks we should never stop discovering new (to us) music. He's right. Around 10 years ago he came upon the 1972 debut album by German experimental rock group Agitation Free, 'Malesch'.
