Sat, 01 Aug 2026 09:00:22 +0000

Join us this week as we pick out our Top 5 coldrain songs in an episode that turned out to be a very fun (but tough!) week!

We first came across coldrain hearing Mayday from Fire Force (a track Huxy is still listening to over a year later!) and decided when they released the new song "EX-HUMANITY" that it would be the right time to dive deep into their back catalogue.

Through the past week, we have been learning more about the band, how long they have been going and discovering the talent of the band, and lead singer and songwriter Masato Hayakawa

So we hope you enjoy this episode - filled with new and old songs, and of course Mayday makes an appearance! Let us know in the comments or on our socials if you enjoyed this episode and what your favorite coldrain song is!

Episode 56 - Sky Lighthouse Interview - Heavy Riffs and High Hopes from Florida!

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 09:56:42 +0000

In this weeks episode we are joined by a special guest, Sky LightHouse. Hailing from the Sunshine State of Florida, multi-instrumentalist Sky talks us through his process of song writing, playing every instrument on the record, the various vocal techniques and warm-up's before recording as well as how he develops his ideas into some of the most impressive and cinematic music videos we have ever seen!

Hear us discuss what a live show involves, what the message behind the band is, as well as the finer details, such as his intricate mask production and hear some of his influences from the gruesome world of horror which is reflected within these movie masterpieces.

What does the future hold for Sky LightHouse in 2025 and beyond? Tune in today to find out!!

Sky Lighthouse, formed in 2019, is driven by a mission to create music with real meaning. Founded by Luis Osorio, the band combines the raw intensity of heavy metal with profound lyrical storytelling. Their sound draws inspiration from legendary bands such as Linkin Park, Architects, Wage War, Bad Omens, and All That Remains, blending hard-hitting riffs with emotive and thought-provoking lyrics. The band’s name encapsulates their philosophy: “Sky” represents a divine presence, while “Lighthouse” symbolizes guidance through life’s challenges. This guiding ethos drives their music, which serves as a beacon of hope for fans navigating their own struggles.

Episode 55 - Top 5 Three Days Grace

Fri, 14 Mar 2025 15:00:07 +0000

In this episode, we dive deep into the powerful impact that Three Days Grace has had on our lives, growing up and how their music has shaped the way we’ve navigated tough times. From the raw emotion and hard-hitting lyrics to the unforgettable sound that defined an era, Three Days Grace became the soundtrack of many of our formative years.

We explore how songs like "Painkiller" and "Infra-Red" helped Keith face some of his darkest moments. The energy and catharsis in these tracks served as a lifeline through personal struggles, reminding us all that it’s okay to feel pain and seek strength in the music.

For Huxy, Three Days Grace wasn’t necessarily a way to cope with tough times, but rather a band that he simply enjoyed. Songs like "Explosions" and "Just Like You" were just fun to listen to, offering high-energy anthems that were a perfect soundtrack for everyday life. Even without facing intense struggles, the music provided an exciting, powerful vibe that resonated with him, keeping the adrenaline high and the mood lifted.

From the angst of youth to the resilience of adulthood, Three Days Grace's music has been a constant companion. Join us as we share stories of how their songs became a form of therapy for some and a source of enjoyment for others, all while celebrating the band's enduring legacy in our lives.

Grab your headphones and tune in for a journey through music, memory, and the strength we've all found in the songs that continue to define us.

Episode 45 - Between the Keys: The Music of Elton John feat. Leah!

Fri, 22 Nov 2024 09:59:39 +0000

This week, we dive head first into one of the most iconic artists in music history; Sir Elton John. His journey from being a young piano prodigy to becoming the global superstar that he is today, is nothing short of genius. His partnership with the equally talented Bernie Taupin has caught the worlds hearts one song at a time, changing the course of music, stage shows and pop culture forever.

We are joined by Leah, Keith's mom, who shares her Top 5 songs as well as countless memories over the years! Such as trips to Philadelphia, seeing Elton live and hearing her favourite deep cuts from past albums and hand-making a LION costume for her husband Jeff, The Rocket Man, to wear while singing songs from the Lion King soundtrack!

This has been an episode that Keith has wanted to do since we started this podcast a year ago, so it's been a long time coming and we just hope you enjoy this (slightly longer!) special episode as much as we all did making it!

We dedicate this episode to Jeff, The Rocket Man, and hope he is just as proud of this episode, and the stories that have been shared in his memory, as we are.

This one's for you Jeff.

It's International Week!

An episode that we've wanted to do for a while now, we finally got round to choosing some of our favourite music of the world - the only rule this week = NO UK OR USA ALLOWED.
So our two 'home countries' are ruled out, which meant that we had to travel the world in search of songs and bands that we may not usually listen to.

A really fun episode this week, hopefully you enjoy our picks and even find a new favourite band from the ones we have chosen from, or share with us some that we don't even know about across our socials! :)

Episode 43 - AMERAKIN OVERDOSE feat. Cody Perez!

Fri, 08 Nov 2024 10:27:49 +0000

Join us this week for one of our biggest episodes to date as we discuss one of the freshest nu metal/industrial bands ou there today; AMERAKIN OVERDOSE featuring their vocalist CODY PEREZ!

We discuss the bands start up, what their message is and which bands inspired Cody to take his music seriously. Cody shares some stories from the road, including the time he lost his custom made mask in a gas station (RIP). We dig into some stand out songs and the meaning behind their lyrics, and Keith talks about the songwriting process and how tough it is being so open and vulnerable, to the production and who is involved to finish the process.

Hear how Cody's brother scaled a festival setup FOR FUN whilst the band played live on stage, as well as how a mix up with two buckets of REAL COWS HEARTS ended up with on-stage vomiting while the crowd cheered throughout!

We dig into the bands masks and on-stage characters, and how they are inspired by bands such as Slipknot, Mudvayne, Pantera & Coal Chamber.

We talk about the bands incorporation of wrestling and how it's definitely time for Amerakin Overdose to write a wrestling theme song, or PPV theme song, as well as hearing another story of one of the band dressing up as the Ultimate Warrior, facepaint and all, and running full speed in to a port-a-potty and how that turned out!!

So please enjoy this special episode, big thanks to Cody for chatting to us and of course all of Amerakin Overdose for creating some truly awesome music and live shows. Give the band a listen/like/follow to help support them at all their links below - and be sure to get tickets if they come through your town to see all of this chaos and aggression live on stage!

Episode 21 - Smells Like Weird Al!

Fri, 15 Mar 2024 10:30:02 +0000

Episode 21 is here! Let's great freaking WEIRD!

This week we talk about 'Weird Al' Yankovic; a master accordion player, genius song writer, rapper, qualified architect(seriously!) the list goes on... What is evident though is how he truly is, and always has been, waaaay ahead of his time.

We talk a little about his upbringing, how he ended up writing some of the best polka songs we've heard, his skills as a rapper, how an actual LION made it onto a video set, how he stood death in the face by way of a steel beam in his Amish Paradise video and of course run down our fave songs of some of his biggest and bestest albums. Not gonna lie, this was a real fun one to make!!

So sit back and take it the master craft of Mr Yankovic with us - and be blown away during his hit 'Hardware Store', because whodathunk someone simply listing items for sale could be so damn impressive!?

Fri, 19 Jan 2024 10:25:42 +0000

"I'm an object in motion, I've lost all emotion, my two legs are broken, but look at me dance!"

Another week rolls along as we bring you the second part of our rundown of AJR. We conclude one hell of a ride with the second album "Neotheater", why the song '100 Bad Days' is so damn relatable, how product placement has almost become the norm for the WORSE and how writing a song about a child yet to be born can be so emotional!?

Then we finish with their latest album "The Maybe Man" - Keith's album of the year (already!), the crazy funky beat on "Yes I'm A Mess", how "Inertia" almost wasn't even included on the album plus the funny story of how the song "Steve's Going To London" came to be - who's Steve!?
