In 2001 VH1 debuted the show Bands on the Run. It was a massive hit, yet it only lasted one season... We felt like it needed much more attention.
In the wake of Flickerstick's reunion (long after Soulcracker, Harlow, and Josh Dodes threw in their towels), we have decided to break down this insanely dated time-capsule of what-the-f*ckedness and talk with other touring musicians, friends, and music journalists about what they got wrong and what they got right.
For this episode Ian, Nat, and Ross are forced to close this chapter of their lives with a fond(ling?) look back with BOTR expert: Jon Wurster (the Mountain Goats, Bob Mould, The Best Show, and more).
You can watch every episode of the show for free on youtube HERE. Catch up and catch the magic.
Jon will be hitting the road next month and you can/SHOULD buy tix HERE

In 2001 VH1 debuted the show Bands on the Run. It was a massive hit, yet it only lasted one season... We felt like it needed much more attention.
In the wake of Flickerstick's reunion (long after Soulcracker, Harlow, and Josh Dodes threw in their towels), we have decided to break down this insanely dated time-capsule of what-the-f*ckedness and talk with other touring musicians, friends, and music journalists about what they got wrong and what they got right.
For this episode Ian, Nat, and Ross are joined once again by the lovely Rayshele of Harlow to celebrate their exit from the show in pt 2 of a 2-parter-party in Tampa.
You can watch every episode of the show for free on youtube HERE. Catch up and catch the magic.
If you want early access to these episodes (+ the extended version of this episode), head over to the Rigs of Dad Patreon Page where you can also hear more unedited, ad-free interviews with previous guests, patreon exclusives, and beyond! PLUS early access to other episodes. AND billing has been paused for the month of July.
Ross put out an album under the name COGENTS. It's available wherever you listen to music and highly recommended for those looking to scratch their ambient itch.
Ian has some MUST LISTEN TO MUSIC over at the Interesting Times Gang Bandcamp Page.
Nat and Ian have some tunes you must check out. Keep up with all things Strangelight by Checking out their BANDCAMP page for all the details.

J. Robbins is likely a household name for any true music fan. Joe Hall should be right up there with him. Since 2006 his band Hammer No More the Fingers has been putting out rock with more hooks than a bait and tackle shop.

Robbins and his incredible band.
It is in your best interests to listen to ALL of Hammer No More the Fingers's music, wherever you do that these days, as they have not had a miss in their catalogue so far; AND much of that has to do with their 15-year, working relationship with J. Robbins! So this is a fascinating conversation for anyone in a band that wants to get an in depth look into the journey behind some of music's best offerings ever.

In 2001 VH1 debuted the show Bands on the Run. It was a massive hit, yet it only lasted one season... We felt like it needed much more attention.
In the wake of Flickerstick's reunion (long after Soulcracker, Harlow, and Josh Dodes threw in their towels), we have decided to break down this insanely dated time-capsule of what-the-f*ckedness and talk with other touring musicians, friends, and music journalists about what they got wrong and what they got right.
For this episode Ian, Nat, and Ross are joined on this trip to Atlanta by the incredibly talented Ben Chisholm. He might be the only person we know that has been seen in concert by a member of Harlow, he plays with Chelsea Wolfe, and has worked on some of the best music out there today, indluding Jaye Jayle, The Armed, the soundtrack to X, Mutoid Man, and more.

No project is complete without a visual component. Album covers, show posters, marketing materials... All of that is a crucial element to every release and campaign. Jeff Everett (Rockets Are Red, El Jefe Design) is a dude that has been intimately involved in the visual side of music for decades and somehow ONLY gets better with time as he branches out into film and wrestling as well.
Jeff came by to talk about the business side of the music business, the visual side of the art form, the existential crisis moments every artist goes through, pulling your head out of tough spots and so much more.
His ability to eloquently describe these things and beautifully illustrate these things is the reason he is always working with bands like The Foo Fighters, Gaslight Anthem, Against Me!, The Bouncing Souls, Jawbreaker, Clutch; wrestlers like Dalton Castle, Danhausen, Luchabros, Jericho, and more; celebrating films like Point Break, Stephen King's IT, Before Sunrise, and more... The dude just does it all and is finally letting us all celebrate the journey in book form.
You can pre-oreder and support the book at let-it-bleed.com
Buy prints, shirts, posters and more at rockets-are-red.com Keep up with his online content and more at is instagram: @rocketsarered Book Kickstarter kicks off Valentines Day March 4th - Jeff will be at a Pop Up Gallery Show and Book Discussion at Lost Origins Gallery in Mt Pleasant in DC.

Episode 50(!!!!) of "Film Basics with Bassists that Love Film" is a milestone worth celebrating with one of the baddest names in the biz. We are of course referring to THE Chris Slorach of THE band METZ. Not only does this dude have an insanely insightful approach to his bass tone and gear, but he also has an encyclopedic knowledge of horror films, so we are thrilled to draft some of our faves with him.
The Shining, The Thing, and all the obvious ones make an appearance, but there are some surprises that pop up like a committed Paul Rudd. Strap in and enjoy this massive celebration of Hiwatt, horror, a couple generations of Cronenberg, and beyond.

From the funny, to the sad, to the horror, to the blockbuster bangers, we cover it all in what is surely the most difficult draft we have done so far.

In 2001 VH1 debuted the show Bands on the Run. It was a massive hit, yet it only lasted one season... We felt like it needed much more attention.
Rayshele Teige of Harlow joins Ross and Nat to talk about her experiences on the show, reality television in general, her music career on and off the stage, her work with Prophecy Productions, and so much more.
Rayshele is an insane storyteller that shines a light on all the shadowy areas we have yet to see in our exploration of all things Band's on the Run, the infamous run-in with David Cross, the Fickerstick conspiracy, and so much more.

Filmmakers Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead are the co-directing team behind so many films we discuss regularly on this show.... They are the team behind "The Endless", the horror-romance "Spring", "Synchronic", and their incredible feature debut: "Resolution". With a do-it-yourself approach to filmmaking, they often wear as many hats as possible on their films. The independent spirit they put in their films parallels the spirit of almost every musical adventure Ian and Ross find themselves chasing, so we are thrilled to have had the opportunity to discuss their work with them on many levels and even more thrilled to have the opportunity to talk in detail about their newest film "Something in the Dirt" which is available VOD wherever you stream movies.

Justin Pearson is a boundary pusher if there ever was one. Musically, his output is simply jawdropping. A genre-defying player that continues to put out some of the most unique and deliberate music I have ever heard.
His band Dead Cross (feat members of Faith No More and Slayer) released their second LP today, and it absolutely rips. We discuss the development of this, his approach to writing with some of music's most talented folks, and we are even joined by mutual friend/regular guest here Brent Eyestone (Bleach Everything, Dark Operative, and more) to hear some of the craziest stories about being in a band.
If you like gear, crazy tour stories, deep insight into the creative process, and much more, then you will love this conversation.
Keep up with all things Dead Cross wherever you listen to music, and be sure to check out their new album via their Bandcamp Page

The past twenty years of horror have been impressive. In the shadows of war, the mind can go to some dark places and so much of that was captured on film.

Holy Fawn expands on their brooding yet lush soundscapes with their new album "Dimensional Bleed". They have been a constant listen for me for quite some time. "Death Spells" delivered earth shaking tones with a blend of post-rock, shoegaze, and black metal sounds. They have only expanded that unique sound with this epic new album available everywhere on Friday.
Evan (guitar) swung through Pudgemont on his way to band practice to talk about the evolution of their sound, the electronic elements and orchestration, why every monitor engineer loves working with them, and so much more.
Keep up with all things Holy Fawn, and be sure to scope their tour dates at their website.

What are the scenes that traumatized you as a kid? The ones that jolted you out of your chair, left you in wonder, made the entire theater lose their minds?
We are talking about the most killer scenes in films we all love with some of the most killer musicians from some of the most killer bands of all time. Josh Newton (of Shiner, Every Time I Die, and more) and Dan Sneddon (Kowloon Walled City, No Lights, and more) join Ross and Ian to talk about cinema's greatest on-screen kills.
If you are a horror fan, a Savini fan, an action film junkie, or just a casual film watcher, you will love taking a deeper look at some of these kills. From the practical effects in John Carpenter's "The Thing", to the clever kills in "Friday the 13th", to the French extreme and beyond...
Be sure to check out Dan's new jam Brass Taxxx "Dogpile" wherever you listen to music.
Josh is going to be hitting the road with Shiner later this year, and you would be a fool to miss those shows.

In 2001 VH1 debuted the show Bands on the Run. It was a massive hit, yet it only lasted one season... We felt like it needed much more attention.
In the wake of Flickerstick's reunion (long after Soulcracker, Harlow, and Josh Dodes threw in their towels), we have decided to break down this insanely dated time-capsule of what-the-f*ckedness and talk with other touring musicians, friends, and music journalists about what they got wrong and what they got right.
Joining us this episode is Jon Weisnewski of the Tomorrow We Die Podcast to discuss episodes 2 & 3 as the bands terrorize Chicago, The Jenny Jones Show, the Hard Rock Cafe, and beyond.

Bill Howerdel already has an immense and celebrated resume for his work in A Perfect Circle and Ashes Divide, yet he still manages to push creative boundaries beyond the scope of most guitarists, and he is doing it across the sonic spectrum with his debut solo album "What Normal Was".
Ross and Bill discuss the instrumentation, arrangements, orchestration of this new album, and what it's like to take these songs out on the road. We talk about how Bill approaches the writing for different projects, we talk about teching for Nine Inch Nails, we talk about the evolution of his gear, and what secrets he has and strategies he implements when writing.

BRENT EYESTONE RETURNS!
The legend!
The Champ!
The most appearances of anyone on this show!
Of course you know Brent from the work that actually means something! He is president of Dark Operative records, president of Pax Aeternum digital, licensing mastermind for This Will Destroy You, board member (and board shredder) at Tony Hawk's The Skatepark Project, and (most importantly) he has played bass which makes him one of the most qualified people on the planet to talk film.
In this episode we continue burning through the list of directors in ROUND 5 of the director's draft. This is quite possibly the toughest bout to date with our first shut out! David Gordon Green, Frank Darabont, Joel Shumacher, Danny Boyle, Matt Reeves, Alexander Payne, Ivan Reitman, and more!!!

Casey has ripped through more notes than a Tommy Wiseau script and the result is some of the heaviest, prettiest, and most mind blowing music out there today.

Jordan Buckley has made me laugh more than most anyone I know... I rarely get to hang with the dude these days, but I can still put on ANY Every Time I Die record and just laugh at how hilariously heavy and unrelenting that band was. I was always envious of his playing, his energy, and his artistic talents aside from guitar.
This is a truly great conversation with Jordan about all things ETID, all this post ETID, all things that pushed and inspired ETID, working with Kurt Ballou, his work with John Taffer, his love of Buthole Surfers, Slayer, and Converge... But, most importantly how the impact of that band's legacy has impacted his life since its demise, how he processed the very public dissolve and what he's done to pick himself back up.
In addition to new music in the works with 3 former ETID dudes, Jordan has launched an insane cameo page that you should check out, and a hub for all of his projects from art to airbnb!
Head over to https://jordanbuckley.xyz/ for all things Jordan. From Shirts, to original art prints, to Every Time I Die tour posters, and more. Not a bit of shinfo to be found on that page.

Riley Stearns is a writer, director, jiu jitsu brown belt, metal-head, gear dork, cold brew addict, and so much more. His feature debut "Faults" was a nice introduction to what would become one of the most unique voices in film today. His follow-up, "The Art of Self Defense" is a movie that Ross regularly credits as the film that made him laugh the hardest he has ever laughed in a theater.
Riley has now arrived at his third feature "DUAL", which might be his most signature film to date. It debuted at Sundance, and will be available in theaters April 15th. It's the existential black comedy we all need.
Riley joins Ross and Ian to talk about the creative process behind "Dual", honing his unique dialogue, working with folks like Aaron Paul and Karen Gillan, working with Emma Ruth Rundle, building the Full of Hell cinematic universe, and so much more.

Long before Scott's instagram handle had me laughing my ass off every day, he put out a documentary called "Salad Days" which took an in-depth look at one of (if not THE) most important music scene's in US history. We talk in depth about his process and approach to this film, his evolution as a teenage fan to collaborator with heroes like Ian MacKaye, Wayne Kramer, Brian Baker, Henry Rollins, Dave Grohl, and beyond. How his love of music journalism helped him capture the magic of Creem magazine in his follow-up documentary: "Creem: America's Only Rock 'n' Roll Magazine", all the way through his new project that sounds simply incredible.
If you are a fan of Minor Threat, Bad Brains, MC5, and real music then this episode is for you.

It's no secret that Ian, Brent, and Ross love horror films... so it makes sense that we were all thrilled to have star of several incredible horror works, Alex Essoe, on for this episode. Brent returns for another round of the director's draft with his dear friend and co-host of "Movie Night", Alex Essoe, to talk about the works of Spike Lee, Steven Soderbergh, John Hughes, Taika Waititi, Paul Verhoeven, and more!!
If you are a casual fan or a film obsessive, you will love to hear these homies (whose only qualifications are playing bass, or in this case being in films) chat about all things film in this very special episode of Film Basics with Bassists That Love Film AFTER a good old fashioned interview.
Be sure to follow Alex at @alexessoe on instagram as well as Brent at @darkoperative to keep up with their film curations, some rad music, and much more.

Philip Jamieson of Caspian and Dreamtigers RETURNS for one of the nerdiest episodes to date. We talk about all the nerdy gear that goes into some Caspian riffs, their upcoming vengeance tour, and most fascinatingly: how Caspian goes about sequencing their albums. Why is that last one so crucial? Because we are talking in depth about some nerdy comic book characters in film. Not necessarily the best comic book films, but the best representation of comic book characters in film.
As a bassist, Phil has proven himself to be VERY qualified to talk about film. But as part of an instrumental band, he doesn't have too much to say about comics... This means that he is giving Ian and Ross the task of fitting their choices into HIS sequencing demands. Nerdy enough for you? All of this makes Phil an incredibly welcome addition to the cast on this episode! We talk X-men, Batman, Superman, Scott Pilgrim, and so much more.
If you are a casual fan or a film obsessive, you will love to hear these dudes (whose only qualifications are playing bass) chat about all things film in this very special episode of Film Basics with Bassists That Love Film AFTER a good old fashioned interview.
Be sure to keep up with all things Philip via @caspianofficial @dreamtigersmusic and his own film podcast @themovieloftpodcast on instagram and be sure to check out Caspian as they embark on some long-overdue tour dates.
To hear us get hyper-specific about gear, take a deep dive into unlocking some Chase Bliss Audio stuff, go DEEP in Phil's analysis of the new "The Batman" film, and hear what we would LOVE to see Matt Reeves further explore in this franchise, the extended version of this conversation is available at www.patreon.com/rigsofdad, OR just download the Patreon ap, search for Rigs of Dad, and you can support creators like me and so many more in the process!

Nat Coghlan returns to discuss the Matt Reeves masterpiece matt'sterpiece, "The Batman", in depth. What worked? What didn't? Is Robert Pattinson the best Batman so far? 'Sup with the Riddler? Was it too dark? Was there a Bane Juice cameo? Was that another cameo? Is this the best batman film thus far? How many strings does this comic adaptation earn? Three bassists basically cover all the bases in this four-string-banger of an episode.
Be sure to check out Ian and Nat's band Strangelight HERE as they just put out a stellar new EP AND are hitting the road soon in the Pacific Northwest. So if you like rad, fast, loose punk rock, go put some gas in their tanks!

The Academy has sadly decided to several categories from the Oscar Broadcast, and it's just a bummer. We've covered the magic of film scores in depth with J. Robbins (Jawbox, Burning Airlines, etc) in a previous episode, and no we are celebrating the art of editing with a selection of films that we find to be great examples of art in editing.
All of your favorite films, songs, shows, and stories are the result of sold editing. Sometimes the editing of a film is just as important as the script and the direction. We talk about how it's used to enhance scope in storytelling, how it's used to amplify the scares in horror, and how it is one of the best comedic devices in comedy. We discuss the works of Kubrick, Fincher, Nolan, Adam McKay, and more.
If you want to hear the UNEDITED version of this chat, you can hear that and so much more over at the Rigs of Dad Patreon. This also includes extended interviews with my guests like Kurt Ballou (Converge), Greg Edwards (Failure, Autolux), and much more. Plus you will hear us talk about some movie news of the week and review films like the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Kimi, and more.

Kurt Ballou is a name with a resume as heavy as his tones. When he is not ripping riffs for Converge, or working the board at God City Studio, he is building pedals and guitars for God City Instruments. The dude does it all and does it incredibly well. Thrilled to talk to him about all things Converge, the process behind Blood Moon, recording techniques, guitar builds, effects, and some new technology that he has birthed into the music world. Gear dorks, wear a hard hat while listening to this one... Dude is dropping some heavy knowledge.
You can keep up with all things Kurt and God City at his Instagram page @godcitymusic.
Check out some of his incredible guitars and pedals at God City Instruments
Book some studio and mixing time at God City Studio
Listen to Converge wherever you listen to music, but be sure to buy direct HERE!

Shelby Cinca (Frodus,El Huervo, Cat Beats, and more) returns (sorta...) with house favorite Brent Eyestone (Dark Operative) to talk with Ross about one of the best films of all time and how "they" should do it when they inevitably remake it.
This was a Patreon Exclusive release from last year where the three of us take a deep look at the John Carpenter classic "Escape From New York", discuss what makes it so special, and who should be in charge if they ever decide to remake it.
If you want more episodes like this, head over to the Rigs of Dad Patreon Page where there is already an early, unedited, and extended conversation with Kurt Ballou (Converge, God City Instruments/Studio) available, as well as an in depth look at this year's Oscar nominees.

Shelby Cinca returns. You might know him from Frodus, or Bluebird, or The Cassettes, or his collaborations with El Huervo, but now you will know him for his incredible film taste.
This is not the traditional Rigs of Dad long-form interview either... This is an in depth film talk as three of the most qualified viewers of film (bassists) discuss our biggest comfort film watches. Everything from Raising Arizona, to Buckaroo Bonzai, to Big Trouble in Little China, to Magnolia, to Big Lebowski... It's all here.

Celebrated label head, skateboarder, movie buff, AND BASSIST Brent Eyestone (Dark Operative Records) returns for Round 4 of the Director's Draft!
Brent Eyestone owns and operates Dark Operative, a music company established in 2018 to assist established artists in an evolved capacity. The company invests heavily in the upkeep of artists’ mental and physical health, places music in motion picture and television projects, and provides other vital services intended to sustain the longevity and wellbeing of careers in creativity.
In 1997, Brent started Magic Bullet Records in his college apartment, he has toured and performed around the world with various bands, and currently sings in the hardcore punk band Bleach Everything. When not serving The Skatepark Project, Brent also focuses on regional food-bank fundraising, clean-water well projects, and mental-health awareness. More often than not, you can catch him at Del Mar dog beach.
When he is not putting out music from bands like Caspian, Power Trip, This Will Destroy You, and all of the above, Brent is usually at the movies, packing himself to the gills with plenty of hot takes on all things movies, or talking films with Alex Essoe (Midnight Mass, Haunting of Hill House, Starry Eyes, etc) for their Movie Night show.
In this episode, we talk Peacemaker, Tarrantino's NFT project, the films of the Coen Brothers, Ron Howard, John Carpenter, Clint Eastwood, and more!!! Whether you're a first time listener, a bassist, a movie buff, or a none of the above, you will love to take this deep dive into all this film.

Brian Cook was the first ever guest on this podcast, and he is back with a vengeance... Some of that is true. But regardless of his thirst for revenge, Brian has had an insane two years since we last spoke. Since then he has released a solo album which you should listen to here, These Arms Are Snakes had a reunion, Russian Circles recorded a new album, they toured with Korn and System of a Down, they had all their gear stolen, and so much more...
This is not the traditional Rigs of Dad long-form interview either... This is a glimpse into all the tangents and derailed conversations that always happen with every guest during the Lightning Crashes Lightning Round. There was simply too much stuff to cut out, so I let a lot of that role for the release. If you want to hear the whole thing, head over to the Rigs of Dad Patreon Page where you can hear that and all other extended interviews and beyond.
Be sure to listen to listen to any and all of Brian's music wherever you get your tunes.

Cult Leader is one of the most terrifying bands out there right now. A wide array of sounds from abrasive to beautifully haunting that is almost impossible to pull off, yet they do it and make it seem effortless in the process. Guitarist Michael Mason talks about the process behind some of these sounds, his evolution as a musician from Gaza to now, and even gives an incredibly interesting inside look at his guitar building process... Some of the most unique and gorgeous builds from one of the most unique and crushing players.

Before images were splattered all over our feeds and screen, the movie poster was often all you had to sway you into theaters. The VHS box was all you had to decide on what you'd be renting.
The movie poster world has almost shifted from studio releases to an industry of its own with collectible alternative prints. In this episode we take a look at some of the most impactful posters of all time. From Jurassic Park, to Jaws, to Rosemary's Baby, and beyond. Joining us in this discussion is Jeff Everett of Rockets are Red.
You might be familiar with some of Jeff's work through Gallery 1988 and more as he has done everything from The Big Lebowski, to Green Room, to David Lynch works, Die Hard, and Stephen King's IT.

Mae and Jasmine of the band TORSO swing through to talk all things horror and drop some knowledge on Ian and Ross. These two ladies are not just incredible bassists, but they are some of the most avid horror obsessives we have had on the show thus far.
In this episode we take a closer look at some of the best female characters and performances in horror... No genre celebrates the gender more than horror, with everything from final girls in "Halloween", "Friday the 13th", "Black Christmas", and beyond to films like "Rosemary's Baby", "Repulsion", Adam Wingard's "You're Next", and more.
If you are a casual fan or a film obsessive, you will love to hear four folks (whose only qualifications are playing bass) chat about all things horror in this very special episode of Film Basics with Bassists That Love Film.

Victor Miller is a man that has birthed many incredible things (aside from our very own Ian Miller). Most folks know him as the man who brought Jason Voorhees into this world as the writer of "Friday the 13th"! Victor joins us for the first ever extended interview episode of Film Basics with Bassists That Love Film, and the dude has stories!!! We talk about the inception of Friday the 13th, how it has grown over the years, the impact he has had on the horror genre, the impact the horror genre has had on him, the recent court win over the Friday the 13th IP, and what may lay in the franchise's future.
Beyond all that, we are joined by returning guest Josh Newton to take a deeper look at the slasher genre. Everything from John Carpenter's Halloween, to Psycho, to Tucker and Dale Vs Evil... A true celebration of all things Slasher.

The greatest living punk-rock guitarist: Brian Baker.
His impact on punk music and in rock is undeniable. Whether you know him from hardcore legends Minor Threat, punk icons Bad Religion, or some non-super-group super-groups like Fake Names, Foxhall Stacks, or Beach Rats you have no doubt feasted on at least one of the Baker's dozen or so bands.
We take some deep dives into gear on this one... We talk the magic of Gibsons, Marshalls, P90 pickups, and more. How the gear has influenced the player, how the player has influenced the gear, and how these have changed over time on stage and in studio, but why it's important for Brian to keep the rig simple.
It was an honor to have this conversation and an absolute joy to share it.
Keep up with all things Brian Baker online at @brianbakers @badreligionband @beachratsnj and @dag.nasty
Be sure to check out the new Fake Names ep here which also features Baker, Johnny Temple (Girls Against Boys), Michael Hampton (S.O.A., Embrace), and Dennis Lyxzén (The Refused, International Noise Conspiracy).

Multi-instrumentalist Joby Ford took a break from the camping life to talk tone with Ross. You might know Joby as one of the founding members and guitarists of The Bronx, maybe for his guitar or vihuela or jarana or accordion work in Mariachi El Bronx, maybe for his surf guitar sounds in Pounded By the Surf, and beyond.... Regardless, was stoked to get him out of the tubing tides of Tennessee to take a dip in some soundwaves for this enlightening chat.
The Bronx is currently on tour with Rancid and Dropkick Murphys to celebrate the release of their sixth album: the aptly titled "Bronx VI" and it is an absolute banger of an album.
In this episode, we talk tone, amps, strings, pickups, effects, moshing, skateboarding, being a dad, and beyond... This episode is also graced by the additional music of one of Joby's other bands: Pounded By the Surf.
Keep up with all things The Bronx at www.thebronxxx.com
Scope Pounded By the Surf here
And be sure to catch The Bronx when they roll through your town with either Rancid/Dropkick or Every Time I Die later this year.

Josh Newton is most known as a six-sting slinger in the band Shiner, one of the longest tenured bassists of Every Time I Die, and one of the most avid fans of horror films out there.
This is Josh's second time on the podcast, as we felt it was only fair that he be given a chance to shine some light on the shade thrown his way by Andy Williams last week. While we were at it, we decided to do another film draft, focusing on horror films.
Slashers, demons, vampires, zombies, Craven, Carpenter, Leatherface, and more... We talk about the essentials in horror cinema, what makes these movies so special, and so much more.

They are releasing their fifth studio album on June 4th, entitled "Arrows", and it will certainly please the die-hard lifers and fresh ears alike.
I talked with guitarist/vocalist Bryan Giles about everything from beer to gear... recording, writing, border patrol, aliens, elevated cuisine and so much more. Hands down one of the funniest dudes to hit Pudgemont airwaves.

Brent Eyestone is a guy that has worn so many hats in the music industry, he singlehandedly might be keeping Lids in business. He is the label head of Dark Operative (Powertrip, Caspian, Burial Waves, This Will Destroy You), you may be familiar with his catalogue at Magic Bullet Records, his music in Bleach Everything, Highness, and so so so much more.
Brent joins Ross and Ian Miller (Kowloon Walled City, Less Art, No Lights, Strangelight, Puig Destroyer, and more) as the first ever guest on "Film Basics with Bassists That Love Film", where we talk about the difference between entertainment curation and algorithm, and take a deep dive into paranoia films, conspiracy films, and beyond.
Everything from "3 Days of the Condor" to John Carpenter classics, from some Marvel MCU films to Hitchcock! No stone is left unturned!!

Whether he's heaving the heavy breath of texture as one of the guitarists in Pianos Become the Teeth or bumping the bass as SUAHN, Mike York is one of the most musically savvy dudes around... he's also just a true joy to talk with.
This episode has it all. We talk tone, writing back in the early band days vs writing now, jumping genres, being band dad and more. There are many layers to Mike just as there are many layers to his music.
The sonic sequel to my conversation with Zac and Kyle from a few weeks back.

There's a new weekly show over at the Rigs of Dad Patreon where Ian Miller (Kowloon Walled City, Less Art, Puig Destroyer, Strangelight, Productive Outs, and more) joins Ross to talk all things movies.
What were the most captivating headlines of the week? What is going on with Vin Diesel? Do video game adaptations ever work? Do reboots ever work? Does streaming beat the big screen? Can we get some more Michael Keaton in out monitors?
Head over to www.patreon.com/rigsofdad or just download the Patreon ap and search for "Rigs of Dad" if you want to hear more of this weekly episode, extended interviews with Ross' guests, patreon exclusive interviews, commentaries, and much much more.
Like film? Like music? Like musicians talking about film? If you answered yes to any of these, you are in luck! This episode has all the movie news you need, a crash-course mixtape into the works of Richard Linklater, the inside scoop on the Jurassic Park/Fast and Furious crossover we've been waiting for, and more.
Ross is still on vacation, and while interviews will return next week, here is the debut episode of a weekly patreon-exclusive podcast co-hosted by previous guest Ian Miller (Kowloon Walled City, Less Art, Strangelight, No Lights, Productive Outs Podcast, Puig Destroyer, and more).
Interviews will return next week, but if you want to hear this weekly podcast, download the patreon ap, search for "Rigs of Dad" and dive in. Or simply head over to patreon.com/rigsofdad and start your journey there.
Wow! 52 episodes! A full years worth of tone talk!! I am flashing it back to where it all began on this one. Here is the very first ever attempt at a Rigs of Dad themed podcast. This is one of the most insane stories I have ever heard told in a way that was simply too ambitious for me to keep up with... It's like "This American Life" meets "This is Spinal Tap" and it is told through the eyes of several previous guests from Frodus, Majority Rule, El Huervo, The Outcircuit, and beyond. It has everything you want in it: tour stories, pranks, The Refused, Sky Mall, and beyond!!!
Endless thanks to everyone that made this past year possible. Thank you first time listeners, long time listeners, and all the patrons and guests that have made this possible.

The sonic sequel to last week's episode!!
After speaking with Steve from Torche, I was eager to get really nerdy with Jonathan about the sound sorcery he brings to the band.
From their blistering gain, dropped tuning, and undeniably rich air-moving sound, Torche is one of the most unique and impressive forces in music today. There is no band that fits every possible mood as much as Torche. There is no band that pushes the boundaries of sound harder than Torche. And there is no guy I would probably rather talk amps and tones with more than Jonathan.
We talk about his gear, his history with gear, his studio, and how he became so learned in all things heavy music.
Please be sure to check out Torche wherever you listen to music, and follow them wherever you consume your social media. PLEASE check out Nuñez Amps at www.nunezamps.com and be sure to follow both on Instagram.

Steve Brooks is helping me celebrate the 50th episode with his own birthday!!
Torche is a band that is in constant rotation in my house, in the car, at the gym... everywhere. There is no band that fits every possible mood as much as Torche. They are one of the heaviest bands, one of the happiest bands, one of the catchiest bands, one of the hardest working bands... they are just a band for everyone.
Thrilled to have had the opportunity to talk tone with one of the most important figures in that world since the word itself was ever applied. We talk gear, tour, influences, volume, and much more.

Multi-instrumentalist Allen Epley talks tone, writing, recording, podcasting, getting baked, and much much more.
His band Shiner put out a monster of an album last year after a 20 year hiatus. His band The Life and Times has put out several monster albums in between that time.

Whether it's because of his work on bass or behind the board, you have probably heard many works of Justin Meldal-Johnsen. He worked with Beck for many many years. He has worked with Nine Inch Nails. He has produced albums for bands such as Jimmy Eat World, Paramore, and M83... he has done it all, seen it all, and I am fortunate enough to have had him discuss it all in this episode.

Dave Turncrantz is an incredibly talented and tasteful drummer that has arguably found himself in one of the most difficult positions in one of the best bands out there. In Russian Circles he operates free of a click, but at the mercy of the layers and loops bing built around him. How he pulls this off is something that has always bewildered me... Fortunately I was able to discuss in detail over many many laughs.
We talk drums, tour nightmares, being an ambassador for Ludwig Drums, finding the right studio, picking the right producers for an album, and much much more.

Evan Weiss is the busiest man in music. That's just fact.
The dude plays in more bands than bands that exist. Beyond that I think he is a bit of a song savant compounded with a total gear nerd... all recipe for a fantastic conversation about music, movies, the difference between a recording artist and a performing artist, and much much more.
We talk about his writing experiences with his band Into It. Over It. We talk about his role his other projects like Pet Symmetry, Their/They're/Their, running a label and studio off of patreon, and much much more.

Phil Towle is probably best known for his work that was documented in the Metallica documentary, "Some Kind of Monster"; but honestly, he should be known as the shining light we all look for on the darkest of days. A truly disarming, personable, and insightful guy with tons of great advice for bands at all levels.
Kirk Hammet of Metallica said "If Lennon and McCartney had Phil, the Beatles would never have broken up." I think any band could be inserted in that sentence... We talk a great deal about "Some Kind of Monster", the reception of St. Anger, addiction, hardship that often runs with art, the price of fame, and more. Fantastic conversation with a truly fantastic dude.

Johnny Dang is one of my favorite musicians out there. He may be most known as one of the three guitarists for O'Brother (who put out a truly fantastic album in 2020) but is quickly becoming a well respected composer after the debutrelease of his solo project Hisself called "in the end".
We talked all things tone, songwriting, Sigur Ros, Johann Johannsson, Jazzmasters, and more in this one. Truly a dude that deserves a ton of attention!
Be sure to check out O'Brother's most recent album, "You and I" over at www.obrother.bandcamp.com as well as Hisself's debut album at www.hisself.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-end-2

Happy New Year!
Starting this year off right with a truly controversial round of Dad Libs with Wayne Lozinak of Hatebreed!
Wayne discussed the bands newest album "The Weight of False Self" as well as the release of the band's beer collaboration with Witchdoctor Brewing: "Live for This Lager".
There's plenty of gear talk, show talk, coming up in the hardcore scene talk, and much more.

Taking the holiday week off from interviews and revisiting this classic Holiday film with two of my favorite film buffs.
We're not saying they should remake "Die Hard"; but if they do, they better do it this way.

If you're a drummer, you will love this talk... If you're not a drummer, you will love this talk. Jean-Paul Gaster is a true madman behind the kit, and his resume speaks for itself.
Jean-Paul is one of (if not the) greatest drummers of our time, and his band Clutch is creeping up on 30 years of unapologetic, pure rock fury. I had a blast talking with Jean-Paul about his early days behind the kit, his constant thirst for a deeper knowledge of the instrument, how drums have changed the course of world history, and much much more. Lots covered over a couple beers with this dude, and I am thrilled to share it with you.

Very excited about this episode. Clay Tarver has an incredibly impressive resume across several mediums... You might know him for his innovative and angular guitar playing for bands like Chavez or Bullet Lavolta. You might know him for his work on films like "Joyride". Or maybe you know his work on hit shows like HBO's "Silicon Valley". I'm thrilled to have had the opportunity to pick his brain on all of those!
The collaborative and creative process is a common theme in so many of these episodes, and this conversation dives right into an exploration of those across several mediums with a guy that has put out and produced some of the most engaging music, tv, and film over the years.
Chavez is currently celebrating the 25th anniversary of their seminal debut "Gone Glimmering", which is available via www.matadorrecords.com

Taking a week off from the normal interviews and talking about one of the greatest films ever made with two of the greatest dudes around! I am joined by Matt Armstrong (Frank Iero & The Future Violents) as well as Kevin Hilliard (Caverns, Flavor Waster) to talk about the John Carpenter Masterpiece: "Big Trouble In Little China".
It seems like ever movie we love is going to inevitably be remade at some point in time, so if they're going to do it, I just hope they do it like this!

Is a musical mad-scientist. Whether it's with devastatingly heavy riffs in the seminal hardcore band Botch or the mind-blowing loops and tap dancing of Minus the Bear, David Knudson is a Fret-Force to reckon with.
We talk gear, riffs, what influenced him, what made him such an influential player, and his upcoming solo project which sounds awesome!
FWIW, I love talking about bandcamp and supporting artists through that wonderful platform... AND right now, you can check out Botch's entire catalogue at www.botch.bandcamp.com hear David's fury in its full glory on the only platform that seems to be truly helping artists stream their music these days.

The Adventures of Jason Hamacher are nothing short of legendary. Whether it be from the Frodus days, the Decahedron run, his tenure with Battery, playing with Combat Wounded Veteran, his current band Zealot RIP, managing Cave-In, his work with the Smithsonian, his work as a punk-rock Indiana Jones in Syria, or in with the art gallery he runs: Lost Origins Gallery, he has ENDLESS stories that are all worthy of their own individual movies.
Truly one of the funniest dudes around that has seen it all, done it all, and lived to tell these stories in the most fascinating ways.

If you told me 25 years ago that I would one day be talking to Lars Frederiksen for three hours about everything from gear, to family, to yeast infections, to following Ace Frehley into a bathroom.... I would have called you crazy. But here I am, sharing that very conversation.... Well, most of it.
Lars is an insanely personable, disarming, genuine, and honest dude with a lot of truly fascinating stuff to share, endless stories, and more. The man needs little to no introduction, so I suggest just diving in.

I'm gonna be real: The character limit on here won't let me even put a dent in Ian's resume... This dude is a true gear dork, an insanely influential bassist, and a dude that has done it all and will continue to do more.
Most of you might know Ian from his work in the bands Kowloon Walled City, Less Art, Puig Destroyer, No Lights, Strangelight, and on and on and on... We touch on alot of that, but really focus on his evolution as a player from Maiden enthusiast, to youtube-playthrough guru over at The Low Country.
Be sure to check out the podcast he does with Riley Breckenridge over at www.productiveouts.com (also available wherever you listen to podcasts), and of course head over to youtube and scope The Low Country.

A man that needs little introduction here: The legendary Jim Adkins of the legendary Jimmy Eat World.
If you're here for gear, hold me beer... because we get pretty nerdy with all things involving strings. Fun and insightful conversation on everything from pickups, to songwriting, to those nightmare gigs that end with testing cables.

You'd think a man like Scott would be in jail for assault given his propensity to beat Toms. But he is instead enlisted to pummel the life pulse into such incredible acts like Tenacious D, John Carpenter, and much more on a regular basis.
Was thrilled to have Scott crack me up doing this intense psycho-analysis project known as Dad-Libs.
Be sure to check out Scott's latest release Penix wherever you listen to music, and be sure to keep and eye out for his score work in "The Great North" on Fox.

Steve Pedulla is the Roger Deakins of gear, and Roger Deakins is the Steve Pedulla of cameras... At least that is what you will be telling yourself after this episode, as that's what I told myself after listening back to it.
Steve is most known for his guitar work in the iconic rock band Thursday, but he has also put out a ton of work from behind the camera on several shows & movies... and much to my surprise, he had put in some time in front of the camera, appearing in some of Danny McBride and David Gordon Green's earliest efforts. We talk about his history in both mediums, the ups and downs of the collaborative process in both, hilarious tour stories, and LOTS of gear-talk.
Truly funny conversation with a truly sweet and funny dude.

Taking a break from the normal long-form interview in this episode and playing a game of Dad-Libs with my friend Grant.
The rules are simple: I take a bands wikipedia page, remove the key-players, album titles, band names, Grant blindly fills in the blanks, I read it back with his additions, and he has to guess the band.
This was a fun experiment...

Shawna Potter is a true force on stage as the singer for War On Women, and an awesome friend to chat it up over drinks while off stage! She's an accomplished singer, guitarist, writer, speaker, dog-whisperer, amp servicer, and much more!
We talk about what it's like to be an accomplished artist that is not endorsed by Shure, her new book about making spaces safer (which she wrote without any help from Shure), going from a guitarist/singer to one of the most animated presences on stage without a guitar (or a Shure endorsement), and why she hates the generalization of "punk" in music. All of this and more brought to you without Shure!

It was great talking to him about his days in hardcore bands, seeing riots while on tour with Rage Against the Machine and House of Pain, playing drums for the unfathomably amazing Burning Airlines, teching for some of the largest names in music, Nic Cage, horror movies, and much more.
Great conversation with a truly funny and awesome dude.
Pete is currently playing with Foxhall Stacks (a supergroup of DC punk legends), who just put out an EP called "The Half Stack" ep.

As a cycling enthusiast, I was thrilled to learn that I had landed an interview with Lance Armstrong... When that ended up not being the case, I was relieved that this dude Matt Armstrong is not only a hilarious dude, but a truly innovative and gear savvy bassist.
Fun conversation with not-Lance-Armstrong about everything from unconventional bass playing, gear, filling out the frequencies in a band, working the door at a strip club and more.
One of the funniest lightning rounds thus far!
He won't say anything on stage or on an album; but when he opens his mouth, Mike Sullivan is one of the funniest dudes around.
We had a lot of laughs talking about quarantine facial hair decisions, amps, guitars, nightmare shows, and much more.
Lots of funny stuff in this one, and if you want to hear more (including another insane nightmare show story), be sure to check out The Rigs of Dad Patreon Page by either downloading the ap or heading over to www.patreon.com/rigsofdad

Very few mortals have accomplished as much as J. Robbins. Dude is legendary on stage, behind the board, over beers, and beyond.
Thrilled to have J. on to talk about everything from Jawbox reuniting, the magic of films scores, gear, and how his producer's ear has evolved over the years. Lots of fun stuff in here for musicians, guitarists, fans, and engineers.
Lot's of craziness and deep dives in the extended conversation available at www.patreon.com/rigsofdad
We all know that tone comes from the heart, but it takes an amp to get the blood pumping and the tone thumping... That is where Alex Auxier steps in.
As Artist Relations for Orange Amps, Alex is the dude who makes sure the backline is the best it can be, where it can be, and that Orange Artists are always able to hone their tone with ease.
We talk gear, landing a "white whale" account, why Yanni's music is magic, and much more. Fun conversation with a truly funny dude.

Caspian is not your typical Post-Rock band, but they always seem to be the first one that comes to mind when I hear the term. They recently released a monument of an album called "On Circles" which is available wherever you may listen to music.

Anton has been wiping venue floors with people's jaws for a decade now leaving many hard of hearing as well as speechless in the process. His band O'Brother just released their fourth full-length, "You and I"... to no surprise, it is amazing.
We talk writing, finding their sound, honing his tone, and much much more.

I have been looking forward to this episode for a long time. A while back, Josh sent me some mixes of what was possibly a Shiner album, with no real release details or anything, so I could not ask to have him on here to talk about it...
Well, now the album is out, and it is nothing short of phenomenal. We talked about the writing process for this record, his evolution as a guitarist, got nerdy over some gear, talked horror movies, and much much more.

I really really really really wanted to get Ja Rule on the show to talk about his work with Swizz Beats and Metallica, but ended up with his brother Tucker.
Most of you know Tucker as the drummer for Thursday, or maybe from his work with Frank Iero and the Future Violents... But now you will have the opportunity to know him on a deeper level. Don't just listen to what he says here... feel it. I know I did! You can and should check out his bands, and be sure to keep up with all things Tucker on his instagram page, which is @tuckerrule
We talked about his journey as a punk drummer playing basement shows to session player extraordinaire, sitting in with Seth Meyer's band amongst many other killer gigs.

Many might know Chris Johnson as the bassist for the genre-redefining, grammy-nominated band Deafheaven... But his ear and career (his CarEAR) goes much deeper than that.
I talked to Chris about wearing several different hats within the band world, whether it be a sound engineer, a recording engineer, a bassist, and more! We talk about his insane Grammy experience and everything leading up to it, and we of course cut to the core of his being in the Lightning Crashes Round.

Christian Lembach is one of the most well-spoken, funny, and gear savvy guys out there making music these days.
We talked about everything from The Room, to his writing process, to what gives him some of the heaviest tones to hit the stage. Beyond that, how his band Whores is handling the involuntary downtime.
While it's quiet for them now, they are still pumping out tunes, gear, and more. Expect a busy second half of the year for these guys, and hear why.

Social distancing cannot keep Ross and Brian Cook from a bicoastal bro-down. Ross talks with Brian from Russian Circles, These Arms are Snakes, Botch, and more about everything from being a musician during a pandemic, to writing processes for different projects, to the importance of films like "Crank 2".
Great conversation. Hard hitting questions. More feels than a blindfolded grandmother at a fabric store.
