Zach Fontanez and his family run a coffee shop and sober bar in Meriden that holds events ranging from a silent book club to hardcore shows. He's also been in and continues to be in a bunch of bands. We thought all that was a great reason to get him on the podcast to talk primarily about Grace's Place which fills a void in the lack of all-ages venues in the area.
We told Matt from Killer Kin that Zach was going to be on and wrote this up about him:
Zach Fontanez is one of the most prolific, energy-filled, altruistic rockers to ever grace the Connecticut music scene. With a taste palette that spans all mutations beneath the rock 'n roll umbrella, this Punk's voracious appetite for creation germinates a scene and show setting rife with electric elation. A member of groups such as: The Human Fund, Minor Inconveniences, HATERS, and many more notable projects, Fontanez can be seen behind the kit, in your face with screaming into a Shure SM58, or swinging his stud-clad wrists in front of your favorite stage. Fontanez is a paragon of Raw-Powered positivity, patience, and the DIY dreams that most wish they could live.

Antoni Maiovvi Favorites: 10 Arnaud Rebotini - Winter Sequences - Skylax Records A surprise EP from French legend Arnaud Rebotini on the infamous Skylax Records. Great moody, almost electroclash esque analog gems. It's been interesting to see Rebotini's music come back around from the rave days through film scores to now without really changing much. No one does the nexus point of French House and EBM quite like him. 9 DJ Plant Texture - Life - Tresor RecordsThe first of two Tresor releases in my top 10, not sure what has been happening over there lately, but I'm here for it. A great weirdo techno 12 inch where opening track Repetitivo (Stretch Mix) sounding like Jeff Mills having eaten too many haribo, before mutating into scattered hats across the dancefloor, perhaps to trip up Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern who have broken into your house for some reason. 8 Autechre - Untilted - Warp Records Now to the first of two reissues in my list, and despite my somewhat negative thoughts as to their quote unquote live show I saw this year, I still love the music and this one in particular stuck out. Approachable but still properly mad. Proof that extreme computer music can be fun. 7 Clark - Steep Stims - Throttle Records I remember when Chris Clark came out with his first record and thinking that it too warp for warp records. I'm pretty sure we never met when I was in Berlin, unless I got him confused with Kid 606, in which case I apologize to you both. Anyway, Steep Stims is great, playful, emotional, one foot in the past and another in the future, really great work that I think will age really well. Solid work Mr Clark. 6 Emptyset - Dissever - Thrill Jockey Records Amazing new record from Emptyset, feels like they took all the lessons from all the later records and applied it to the earlier ones. Beautiful intense grinding drones, like someone built an installation of Sheer Hellish Miasma and I'm somehow in the room with it. 5 Merzbow, Iggor Cavalera, Eraldo Bernocchi - Nocturnal Rainforest - PAN Full disclosure, Iggor sent this to me, but it's been on my repeated listens ever since. Zen-like terror but incredibly dynamic. One of the best noise releases of the year and I'd go as far as to say a career highlight for each of the members. 4 Various Artists - 30 Years Sonic Groove - Sonic Groove Has it really been 30 years of Sonic Groove? Adam X compiles a collection of outstanding producers for this excellent collection of tracks. Highlights include the mutant acid of Bryan Zentz, the incomparable genius of Mike Parker and the industrial brutality of Statiqbloom. 3 Dopplereffekt - Metasymmetry - Tresor The second Tresor release on my list is the mighty Dopplereffekt. Beautiful, futuristic and unmistakably Detroit. Top 3 don't disagree! 2 Maria Somerville - Luster - 4AD Genuinely shocking to hear an artist on 4AD in 2025 that sounds like what an artist on 4AD sounds like in my head and it's great. Melancholic Ambient shoegaze for a new generation. 1 Coil - Black Antlers - Dais Records Black Antlers is not my favorite Coil album, but it is the one I least expected to be reissued as it was originally a tour only CDR that then got expanded. You could argue that it might not count as a proper Coil album, but who has time for these discussions. Some of the best music ever created.
Nick (Disfigure; the one on the right in the pic) Favorites: Kommodus - A Foetal Wolf in Stained Glass - Probably my favorite release from Kommodus. Really awesome auxiliary instruments incorporated here and I like the unhinged melodic leads thrown in on a lot of the songs. It has a punkier tinge to it with the guitar tones and the vocals are equally as heavy Fellwinter - Dark Mediaeval Art - Pure riff-centric Judas Iscariot worship Magus Lord - In The Company of Champions - Epic in every way. I liked this better than the Lamp record this year but M has been writing fantastic black metal for a while and this side project is really refreshing to follow Ultimate Disaster - For Progress . . . - Perfectly written D-Beat in my opinion. Very tight songwriting and the riffs and solos are so well executed Valen - Viarum - I'm a huge Thangorodrim fan and this project has reminded me most of that. This was my go-to Dungeon Synth for some epic game nights this year Enceladus - Demo II - Another great release from this project. I love the half time parts, the more death metal sounding vocals, and just the ferocity of the songs while still being melodic Iron Firmament - Arcane Overspill - Amazing black metal from Washington, a state known for churning out amazing black metal for over two decades. I really love the production on this release, especially the interludes. This band writes amazing riffs and this has been a standout for me in their already exceptional discography Sharp Pins - Balloon Balloon Balloon - I love Power pop, I love Guided By Voices and Sharp Pins delivers on all fronts Occult Blood/Carrion Bloom - Battle Cries of Endless Night - Both sides of this split are fantastic. Put out by Wergild who can't miss lately with their bands/releases Utility - S/T - The hometown heroes! The whole release but especially the first song reminds me so much of Fired Up, one of my favorite CT hardcore bands of all time. Great songwriting and also absolutely on point with the energy and vocals. The demo before this is fantastic as well

City of Iron is a band based out of (practices in) Meriden, CT. We were joined by 5 out of 6 of the members (Tyler got stuck at work). We talk about music. We talk about video games. There's a decent amount of laughing. Check it out!
Honestly, this one is just a fun romp with a fun crew. Anything I say about it would just ruin it while you listen in. Just give it a listen. Oh, and there's a snippet of new unreleased as yet music!

Members who joined us on the podcast this month are Del (frontwoman/vocalist), Kane (also notably a member of current very active band Vomit Forth), and Brandon (who plays in so many bands he can't name them off the top of his head, ha!

This episode could very much serve as a primer to metalcore (and shoegaze and some other off-shoot inspirations) through the filter of 3 members of Gun to God's Head.

Shari & Eric joined us on the podcast this month. They are 2/3 of the owners (Pete had to run the bar at the time of recording) of The Cellar on Treadwell - a venue in Hamden, CT that has a bit of history (with a few different names in the past).
We open, as usual, with what we're listening to and move on to how The Cellar on Treadwell became a thing and the struggles of opening just before a pandemic hit and now striving with a fairly full schedule full of local and touring acts.

Jay Holmes and Kyle Holmes are brothers and 2 out of 3 of the owner/operators of Ritual Pizza Co. in Cheshire, CT (operating out of the Counter Weight Brewing space). Ken (the other owner/operator) couldn't make it for fatherly reasons.
We talk about what we're listening to. We talk about how deeply ingrained the music they listen to is to their business and how it informs what they do from the visual design aspects to just how they vibe while cooking and how they want to incorporate what they do into events at the brewery and beyond that.
We talk about the beginnings of the operation doing pop ups and now recently moving from Manchester to Cheshire. We're looking forward to having them there for our next record fair (in October)! Oh, and we talk about Manners, a hardcore band Jay was in, ever so briefly. We veer off in a few directions. Check it out!

Tyler and Jen of the Neu Body collective who put on the frequent Heatsync parties and have now released a 12" EP including 4 tracks from as many members of the crew. Tyler has been shopping at the store since he was a pre-teen! We talk about his brief brush with hype beast fame and general musical trajectory.
Jen's musical trajectory is discussed and her painful dismissal from a college indie/punk band and how that possibly directed her towards DJing and electronic music and its production. Conversation moves on from there. We get into all things Neu Body and about talk about what we're listening to and so on!

Redscroll & Friends Favorites of 2024 We have our (Rick & Josh’s) favorites of the year as usual. We have the Redscroll employee favorites also as usual. We’ve expanded beyond that even! Favorites from some folks in bands on our record label and folks we closely associate and collaborate on the regular! Friends! Most of those folks have recorded their own list and introduced themselves plus there’s a few that have submitted a list that we’ve creatively included. You can go on the web post to peruse their lists (redscroll records dot com) as well. They’ve all but a couple (yet) been on the podcast too so we’ll include their respective episode links on the site as well.
Happy New Year!
Redscroll Records Label Releases for 2024 We generally feel too close to them ourselves (Josh & Rick) to include the Redscroll releases as favorites, but of course they are. We wouldn’t release them otherwise! So, firstly, here’s a quick round up of what we’ve released this past year (and it’s been a good amount of great stuff)!
In chronological order:February 2nd: Intercourse “Egyptian Democracy / Bum Wine” 12” February 2nd: Doom Beach / Chop Chop Chop Chop Chop Chop Chop (split) 12” April 5th: The Knife Kickers “Nameless” LP April 8th: Dirt Devil “Desert Moon” CS (SOLD OUT) March 1st: Tongue Depressor & Austin Larkin “Landau Bar” LP June 18th: Intercourse “Bag Fumblers Incorporated 2021-2024” CD July 5th: Trance Macabre “Trance Macabre” LP August 2nd: Dissolve “Burnt” CS/LP October 29th / December 6th: Chained to the Bottom of the Ocean “Sisyphean Cruelty” CD/CS/LP
We’ve got a couple slated for next year already so we’re not slowing down! Stay tuned for announcements on those!
A couple more we were associate with with exclusive colors this year too!
Kidnapped “Disgust” (DAZE) – would absolutely work with again, Lumpy is great. Kidnapped is great.
Craven Faults “Bounds” (Leaf) Electronic experimental ambient act out of the Yorkshire, UK. We were contacted by Leaf about splitting a color (Lime Kiln Grey) with Norman Records in the UK and to have a unique OBI strip and it came out great. The record is really a great record and we’re happy to be associated with it and it’s our first overseas collaboration of any kind so that’s pretty exciting and we’re absolutely chuffed with how it turned out.
FAVORITES LISTS! We've got our lists first. Staff picks follow. Then the rest will be in no particular order other than I will try to mix it up in the edit and put different ends of the spectrum back to back to keep y’all on your toes and hopefully interested in it all! Like I said before you’ll be able to check them all out on our web post. Links, pictures, etc. up on the site. I’ll assemble a playlist as well to publish with this so you can check all these things in more depth in your own time. That link will be on the web post as well.

Ben Levesque joins us at the shop to talk shop about shows, concerts, gigs and such! Ben has been with Manic Presents for about as long as we've had the store now (over 17 years!), but recently made a huge jump from working essentially 2 full time jobs to dedicating all his time to Manic Presents in a yet to be named position. When it comes to running and booking shows he's a jack of all trades. We talk about some inside baseball - the inner workings of things without blowing up any spots.
Ben of Manic Presents
We talk about music in general and we push out in all directions pertaining to Manic Presents and its venues and what Ben hopes to do with all of those and more!

Nick & Tim helm a relatively new project called Disfigure. So far, they have just one tape release though they are working on more. Nick worked on many of the songs in relative isolation while living in New Hampshire and then recorded them with Tim once back in CT.
We start as usual talking about what we're listening to. We recorded in October which lent itself to some opening talk about horror movies and bake off. We quickly veer into how the band started and what inspired it to happen; how they were inspired by Godflesh, d-beat and black metal to create their sound.
Conversation continues down that path and veers off until we finally trail off talking about the first Redscroll release after becoming a store, Hostage Calm's Lens - a record Tim is on and a band Nick later joined and also a band that bares little other connection to this current project sound-wise other than the people who made it. Anyway! Battle metal madness!

We are joined by a man, Byron Coley, who has more stories than we could fit into every past episode of our podcast and we surely packed as much as we could into a single sit down. We start off with some talk about what we're listening to as usual and we move on to record fair talk (don't forget about our Record Fair at Counter Weight Brewing Co. on October 13th featuring Byron selling upstairs!).
Byron tells tales of driving John Fahey around looking for classical records, his process for listening to 10 new records everyday, writing for weekly publications and magazines like the Wire, Forced Exposure, Spin and on and on. We talk about the label and store he runs with his friend Ted in Florence, Western Massachusetts.
We go back to his start writing a tour diary with Devo, but this is yet a scratch on the surface and this podcast is our longest yet for good reason! Check it out!

This month Paul and Will joined us on the podcast. Paul sings and Will plays guitar in Dissolve. We just released their latest record, Burnt and absolutely were honored and stoked to do so. Dissolve has been around since 1991 and released records with wide time gaps between them. They endure and we talk about how that works with their band and how those releases have progressed to the most recent record, Burnt.
Dissolve's Paul & Will
We talk about the bands they played with and other bands they were in. We talk briefly about Paul's writing career (a book of short stories called Weakling Planet) and how that relates to how he writes lyrics. We talk about the bands they got to see and play with in the 90s and we go on from there. Check it out!

Here it is - the end of the year favorites podcast including lists by each staff member here at Redscroll! The podcast has a clip from each album. It's a fun listen! Whoops... mostly music! [Lists are alphabetical - no particular order otherwise. Some of Josh's and Rick's lists got tacked on at the end with fun text to voice notes.]
First off, these are things we loved enough to release and Josh and I (Rick) didn't include in our own favorites list because it is basically a given.

John Zaccaria writes music as The Knife Kickers. Friends fill out the band; it is a rotating cast with John at the center. Ryan Prushinski helped with the latest record that is set to come out in early 2024. Ryan played drums on just over half the songs (he also drums in Doom Beach who've been on the pod before; click here for that) and produced/engineered the recording of the album.
We talk to John and Ryan about the new record, playing music in general and how the local indie rock scene gave way to his musical journey. We have the privilege of playing a few songs from the new album (one in full at the end of the interview and a couple partial songs in the mix of the interview).

Undergrounds Record Cafe opened under a year ago (about 8 months) in Oakville, CT. https://undergroundsrecordcafe.com/ We are joined this month by Nick & Dean - the owners of this new hybrid café and record shop. Dean has been shopping with us basically since we opened and his son Nick used to tag along and get lost in the racks (or go over to the sports memorabilia shop and come back to wrangle dad). Time keeps on moving! We start off in the same way we usually do - talking about what we're listening to. We then move the conversation to different aspects of the restaurant and Nick's culinary background. We talk to Dean about what they carry and how they've been reaching more and more folks as word gets out.
Nick and Dean of Undergrounds Record Cafe
Dean will also be at our record fair next Sunday with a table full of records (and maybe some bread or some sort of sampling from the café?! Something's in the works. ). Conversation pushes towards what the future holds for the restaurant and possible events and possible dinner services (special occasions).

Anonymity reigns within the dark realm of black metal. We interviewed an entity known to us here as Ajna. Ajna healms Forest Thrall and plays in Vengeance Sorcery, Cerberus, Sravana, Cemetery Lights and likely more currently active and some that are at this time conceptual acts.
We talk about the Vengeance Sorcery experience of playing Nuclear War Now Fest in Tijuana, Mexico. Ajna goes into depth on the musical paths taken in listening and in playing and gives a short anecdote about how a member of Dokken presented as a sort of missed connection on a tow truck route. We talk about nature and the scourge of the litterer! We veer off on 108 mystic and odd directions and of course we talk about the music we're listening to!

This month we had a chat with Matt Westfall, owner of Counter Weight Brewing Co. We've known Matt for years through music (going to punk shows in our youth) and Counter Weight has been a venue for music here and there since it opened (originally in Hamden and now in Cheshire). It's also where we hold an annual record fair (coming up in October again). We talk about how Counter Weight is ramping up their events schedule with music and comedy and various other events. We also do talk about beer. It's true. We talk about the Counter Weight accolades and how they like to take input from anyone under their roof and getting involved is highly encouraged - generally trying to teach from within and grow.
We don't talk about sprint car racing or animating Bob's Burgers (things done by other people with the name Matt Westfall). We do talk about the role bocce has played in his life and the art and naming of beers. Conversation stretches out from there.
There is a show we'll be selling records at coming up on July 6th, 2023:
Doors at 7:30PM / Music at 8:00PM
$10 (Shaki Presents)

This month on the podcast we're joined by Senti & Vaughn of Ephyra - a collective of 7 folks releasing metalcore that sounds 20 years displaced! Really wild to take a listen for the first time and think this is not from that original era this takes heavy influence from. We talk about all the bands currently on the label and all the members of the bands and who plays what in which. Tight group playing in quite a few formations. We talk about everything we're listening to as usual and conversation ensues as usual!
We talk about label demands and how Ephyra caught on much more than they ever expected faster than could be. CD and tape production specifics are talked about; nice little tips and tricks if you're starting anything up (one of which being - have someone who's good at accounting). Prayer for Cleansing, Undying, Incubus, Limp Bizkit, a laundry list of bands mentioned... Love Lost But Not Forgotten, deadeyesunder, A Thousand Falling Skies... Jay from Papercut may have been in the room too.

Ross Wightman performs and teaches and builds and makes/creates/composes.

We talked with Matty, Nicholas & George of Shirese this month! Lots of real CT insider talk in this one. I tried to insert context when needed. The New Hawaii, Popeye's Garage, the Osbourne House and more DIY spots of yore! Rock and Roll gets heralded as well as some jazz fusion. Good times.
Shirese has a new record and played a great show at Cafe 9 in celebration of its release so we talk about that at length. And we just jaw on about any given subject - like music for instance.

Lumpy (Andrew Wojcik) from the Daze label, King Nine, Sanction, Out for Justice and a bunch of bands joins us this month. We talk about the bands briefly. We talk about starting and running a label since 2019. And we talk about coffee and pizza. If you had ever wondered what it would be like if we hosted a food podcast this is as close as we get!
We talk about how great CDs actually are and what makes a great CD package. We talk about merch that references specific CT institutions and how they are sold almost exclusively at fests out of state! We talk about the music we're listening to as well of course and veer off (in mostly food directions).

This month we talked with Greg Thomas of Silver Bullet Studios, End and myriad musical projects. We talk about some of the music we're listening to and Greg drops lots of teasers on upcoming recordings. New With Honor. New Murmur. Will the Risk Taken album come out for the 20th Anniversary of the studio next year?! Should it?! Pressing questions that a select few forgot they cared about!(SIC)
We really just scratch the surface with Greg and it's a great talk chalk full of knowledge nuggets. And then we talk about shipping for a while (so much that I cut some of it out!). And then more music! What a Colossal (wink, nudge) interview!

Nicole and Jeremy Braddock own and run Hardcore Sweet Bakery out of Watertown and their satellite location in Southington. Beyond the bakery, which grew out of a cupcake food truck, they also do community outreach programs like a book club, baking classes and a variety of events including the upcoming Punk Rock Flea Market on October 23rd at the Southington Drive-In.
We talk about how they've grown their business. We talk about their various TV appearances on cooking competition shows. Lots of fun talk about best selling cupcakes based on different band names and songs and custom cakes based on some outlandish customer requests. Lots of fun was had and topics branch out from there.

This month brings a return guest in Zach Rowden and a new guest in Austin Larkin. Together they perform as Red Yellow Blue Green Black. Definitely go back and listen to the Zach and Henry (Tongue Depressor) podcast if you hadn't yet! For this episode we focused more on Austin as we had yet to dive into his musical background. We of course also talk about lots of things we're listening too.
Austin created sirens for the recent tour with Tongue Depressor - some deep insight on those. General talk of musical education background and Austin's brief stint in a band signed to Sub Pop and how that led to a few years at school for music and then on to Jakarta to further study gamelan. Lots of insight and interesting musical and other art related divergences follow. Give a listen!

This month we're joined by Ryan and James of DOOM BEACH! From a band they named when they themselves thought very little of the band and its place in their lives to a band they've made a big part of their lives and now take some pride in crafting the sound of we talk about that journey and the process of the band and how that evolved. We talk about music we're all listening to. We have a good time. Tales of Lightning Bolt and tour stops. Just four folks jawin' away about music really.
Oh, and let's not forget all the talk of the B-52's - the very real inspiration for this beach themed duo!

Jeff joins us on the podcast this month to talk primarily about his project, FiFac. Electronic music production with a wide genre base beyond bass and improvisation. We talk about the FiFac internet presence (and the odd Twitter relationship / rivalry with CT Verses! It's almost entirely positive - spoiler!). The release show on April 8th at Never Ending Books vol. 2 in New Haven is discussed (info can be found on Jeff's Instagram page here). Bands named after other musicians and celebrities? Singing the praises of Willimantic Records and going there for shows during this pandemic. Ok ok ok, I'm just naming random topics. Listen to the podcast and hear it all. We stay on topic, mostly.

As you may know Redscroll also releases music from time to time by bands / projects we enjoy from the surrounding area. (If you're not familiar here's our Discogs page for the label and its releases.) We wanted to keep that up this year and in the current climate of long wait times for vinyl pressing we had the idea to do a cassette project. SURPRISE! We've got 9 (NINE!) cassette tape releases, 8 Bands. All killer, no filler! OUT TODAY and SHIPPING NOW! Each tape is professionally duplicated in an edition of 50 so get 'em while the gettin' is good!
All of these tapes are available on our Big Cartel page:
https://redscrollrecords.bigcartel.com/

It's the beginning of a new year so first off HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hoping the best for everyone in the coming year!
Rick and Josh host the podcast with no guests and plenty of music clips. We assembled a list for each of our full time staff here. Rick and Josh rip through their respective lists and then those submitted by Caren and David. All of those are listed below. Tune in for some light commentary and clips of them all to check out.
This past year brought us a ton of excellent music and that's definitely reflected in these lists we've put together here. There is also a Spotify playlist linked below to give everything a deeper listen (aka check out the full songs and not just clips).
The podcast opens with some music by Tongue Depressor who we are very thankful to have done an amazing release with this year. The rest of the tracks are from each of these albums listed below (in the order they appear below). Quick note here too that Rick and Josh go into further depth on the podcast, but we (Rick & Josh) basically didn't include any artists in our favorites that we have a favorable prejudice towards, but we didn't preclude Caren and David from doing that. :)

Well we certainly talked some inside baseball with Amanda this month! I (Rick) took liberties with editing on this. It'll make for a more amusing listen if you don't have deep inside knowledge of music retail. If you are in music retail it's not so disguised that you maybe can't figure out the companies discussed. Y'know, MEGACORP!? I also took the opportunity to add some spooky sounds since this is episode that is most current for Halloween. Heck, you may even figure out your own side story to go along with those sounds.
Oh yeah, so we talked about music retail business, record shows, the various stores Amanda has worked at from Slipped Disc to Needle & Groove, and Generation to her job as a representative at All Media Supply and her work putting on record shows with Vinyl Revolution. We also talk about what we're listening to, what Amanda is listening to and what Amanda grew up listening to including her musical background.

On this month's podcast we took questions through Instagram. We talked quickly about RSD and our 14th Anniversary. Questions ranged from why we opened a store in Wallingford to what music got us through this past year. Lots of like-minded questions came in so we generally just answered one of each of those so as to not repeat ourselves.
We also talk about what we're listening to and there's some music inserted along the way in the answers to a couple questions. Check it out!

Amnesiac's Mahoney and Danny are our guests this month on the podcast. We talk about how much Danny worships the ground Maynard walks on and that's pretty much it (this is sarcastic and you'll get it when you listen). We talk about how Amnesiac came about as a band and what it's like to be a band right now in the time of Covid 19. We, as usual, start it off by talking about the music we're listening to!
We talk about Gene Simmons and Kiss and also Scorpions. Honestly, way too much talk about Puscifer, but it's an entertaining episode so stop reading this and just listen.

We talked to Ben Michael on episode 37. Ben is the General Manager of WESU, Middletown - 88.1FM, wesufm.org. We talk to Ben about the current state of the station specifically and about what it's like to operate in pandemic conditions at a University - Wesleyan in this case.
[caption id="attachment_6122" align="alignnone" width="2560"] Ben Michael[/caption]
We talked about the mission of WESU, the part it plays in the community and of some particular shows of interest on there. Some history of the station is touched on as well as some noted alumni. And we talk to Ben about his personal history with the station and with music in general and about his homestead farm with his mule and donkey and chickens and goats!
We once again recorded outside in our back parking lot to maintain a nice social distance and it once again led to us dealing with the elements - especially some strong winds and of course the passing trains.

On this episode of the podcast we talk to Paul of Undercliff, a doom band from right nearby in central CT. We talk about the new record released just about a month ago. We talk about the now torn down facility the band is named after. We talk about Tyvek suits and coping during the pandemic in general.
We once again did this one outside. Paul brought his own mic, stand and chair! Paul also runs PLX-FX – a pedal making venture. We talk about that too (or mostly he does as we know not much of that world). Lots of talking beyond that too. A good time to be had / was had.

On this episode of the Redscroll Podcast we talk with Terry of Stone Jaw (and a few other projects). We talk about Dungeons & Dragons and dungeon synth. We talk about getting into noise and the various approaches to it and all the potential people finding it during their time locked in their living quarters. We talk about NPR for some reason. And we even talk about Stone Jaw as a musical noise project a little.
Terry lets us know how he particularly got into making noise versus the art mediums he was previously into - how his visual works led him down that path. Talk of John Cage and Robert Rauschenberg ensues. Then we bring it all home with sports. How we got there you'll have to listen.

On this episode we talk to Josh of Scrap.edx. An outlier in the Connecticut musical landscape. A rhythmic broken beat industrial project. Josh also has a couple other projects. The Carapace which was a one album and done field recording based idea and Children of Men which is a current hip hop cooperative where he has the roll of producer.

We talk about touring, breakcore basement shows and driving back and forth to Toronto to basically see one act’s set.

We talked with Grady, Johnny and Dante of Anxious. Let it be known we talked to them early in the month of March so the ominous cloud of doom and actual anxiety and nervousness of a quarantined society wasn't on our mind quite so presently as it is now. Escape with us back to a time when we could talk about European tour dates as if they were absolutely happening and not possibly cancelled or postponed (really, anything mentioned that you're curious about you should check the status of because it's not a definite).
[caption id="attachment_5989" align="alignnone" width="474"] Dante (Left), Grady (Center), Johnny (Right)[/caption]
We talked about the formation of the band at a very young age from being heavily influenced early on by Fat Wreck bands and morphing into the band they are today - a band with a couple small (7" and cassette) releases on Triple-B Records with a full length on the way. A band that has opened reunion shows for Saves the Day and done sold out gigs with Knuckle Puck. They have level heads and are really working hard at this with all the youthful energy they can possibly use (have I mentioned how young they are? Dante is finishing his senior year of High School right now!).

We talk about their music, touring all over the world, composing for dance, working at a music studio and for Anthony Braxton's archives and much that surrounds all those topics including how they each ended up making New Haven their home.

This is our now annual round up of the year with our staff favorites. They are by no means definitive. They are things we highly enjoyed this year and believe we'll enjoy them for a long time to come! If you ever wonder what else we might be listening to you can follow #redscrollpicks and of course you might as well follow @redscroll in general on Instagram/Social Media in general.
We also interviewed the dog from CT Verses in this two part epic podcast to start off the new year! Look at this pupper:
The first half of the podcast is unlike our podcasts the rest of the year - it's chock full o' music! Caren and Chip join Rick and Josh to talk about all the year favorites. We go two by two through our lists (well, mostly - towards the end it's more jumbled).
Then in part 2 we do a deep dive into the lore of Crag Mask... ok, not really and that is a bit of a joke that only people who already follow CT Verses might get. Never fear, you'll understand either way very quickly into this conversation. We talk about CT music in general and how CT Verses navigates it and plans to navigate it and the various lists they've done for the year in CT music up on their site now. Check that out here (the superlatives are quite fun): https://www.ctverses.com/

This month we talked to Tarek (aka Rick) and Caleb from Intercourse - self-described jocular noisy AmRep loving band. Beyond that, Tarek and his brother took a love for a similar described band from Florida called Load to possibly the highest level - beyond styling the band after them, Tarek and his brother made a documentary about Load. We talk briskly about that. We talk about 4 day tours. We talk about bodily fluids... yep, if that kind of thing makes you queasy let it be know that towards the end there is a robotic voice that will warn you it is coming up (yikes, PUNishing). Oh yeah, and general music talk as it goes.

Paul from crushing doom metal band Chained to the Bottom of the Ocean and killer D.I.Y. style record label Howling Frequency talks to us about our interstate beef! It's actually pretty much mutual admiration and shared vision so we talk about that and tease about possible collaboration! We talk music in general as usual - what we're listening to etc.
Paul talks about his general philosophy with bands as monoliths versus individuals, crushing the D.I.Y. packaging game, touring, picking adventurous cover songs and we all go on in different directions, but somehow on this episode we don't really talk about food (weird!).

Sean & Pete of Mineva joined us to talk about their band and food and lists of favorites. Yep, that pretty much covers it.
There's talk of milk alternatives, the amount of guitar pedals they have in their home, some bad experiences on tour and a bunch of sound clips are meshed into this one (including a fun Simpsons reference that almost became their band name). Plus we drop some quick knowledge involving our label and their next record (you might be able to guess from this sentence, but act surprised when it comes up).

We talk to Mark and Ben about the history of Manic Presents. We dig into an archived show list and talk about some specific landmark shows and some with fun footnotes and anecdotes. We talk about how much Manic has grown from its Manic Productions past to its current incarnation as part of Premier Concerts; the journey from booking in small rental halls to currently booking at Cafe 9, Space Ballroom and College Street Music regularly.
Mark and Ben explain what it takes to run a show from the small rooms to the current big rooms. They explain how bands can get booked. And of course we talk about what we're listening to!

We talk to Sean B. about his move from Meriden, CT to Austin, Texas 5 years ago and what he's been doing there - like working at End of an Ear. We also talk some real deep inside baseball centered around a Billboard article that went up July 16th - the day we recorded.
At the end we get real light at the end spitting out suggestions for Top 5 lists and Connecticut in general!

On this episode of the Redscroll Podcast we talk with Rick Omonte. We brought him on this time (third time!) to talk specifically about his passion project that's occupied much of the last decade (more accurately about 7 years); it is a compilation entitled "Puro Tayta Shanti" that is now out on Discos Shaki with Little Axe Records.
Instead of filling this space with the insight Rick Omonte brings to life with his stories and explanations we'll let you listen. At the end of the talk we briefly cover the other subjects he's been on the podcast for: the Mountain Movers (and other bands/musical projects) and the State House (still fairly new New Haven set music venue).
Stefan and Dave of Seventh Circle Promotions stopped by. Seventh Circle puts on shows in the area including upcoming shows with Marissa Nadler & Stephen Brodsky and Jesus Piece and Sanction among others.
We talk about all the shows they have coming up, some road-bumps when doing shows in the past, and about lizards and cats and such. Y'know, life.

Dakota, Danny & Liam of Kidnapped joined us for this episode of the Redscroll Podcast. We talk about what we're all listening to before jumping off into the wild world of touring the midwest - in the most broad sense of what that could mean.
Danny gives many shout outs - one of which I back-mask multiple times. Dakota loves the Deftones. Liam and Danny plan a trip to Mexico with a new band that got booked basically before they even had songs (and they play there with CONFLICT!). This episode goes a bit off the rails and there are a ton of sound effects and it's generally fun. Music too.

On this episode we talk to Dan Manning who helms the project, Reduction Plan. We talk about the music we're all listening to.
We talk about Dan being from Bethel, CT and how that informed his current musical proclivities and why living in Brooklyn makes the most sense for him today - including working for Terrorbird Media and how that commute is shrunk tenfold. And we go on from there.

On this episode we talk to Rich Martin. Rich has been involved in the music and arts of the southeastern corner (Mystic, New London & Old Lyme specifically) of Connecticut since his youth.
[caption id="attachment_4736" align="alignleft" width="590"] Rich Martin / The Telegraph Logo[/caption]
Rich opened a store, The Telegraph (TelegraphNL on social media), as an extension of his record label in 2010 in New London. He also currently helps run a jazz club and basically has many burners going with many projects in the works. We talk about all we can within a reasonable time!
This episode brings us to the origins of Redscroll as a label and in general with Mikey Daddona who currently resides in Oakland, CA and runs Ratskin Records - a haven for experimental artists ranging from leftfield pop & soul to harsh noise. Ross Menze also accompanied Mikey on this trip and though he was not the focus of the conversation we didn't ignore him; Ross plays in Headroom, Mountain Movers, his self-named project and over the years myriad other musical outfits.
Mikey on left and Ross on right
We talk about the early days of Redscroll, Ratskin Records and its roster in general, the Ghost Ship tragedy, San Francisco and Oakland's changing artistic climate, and various branches from each of these things.
On this episode Josh, Rick and special guest Caren talk about their favorite releases of 2018. The music bed corresponds with what is being talked about at the time.

If you plan on coming out to our Black Friday festivities you might want to give a quick listen to this quick podcast we did.
NOTE: We are closing early on Wednesday at 6PM. And we will be closed on Thursday/Thanksgiving.
We talk about the Record Store Day Black Friday releases. We talk about the logistics of showing up here: parking, lining up, traffic flow within the store, what's on sale (everything), the DJs we have lined up...
The music bed on this consists of tracks from our Black Friday Mixtape - details on that here.
We'll have a full update of titles in stock on Wednesday night (by 8PM).
This episode is with Dan and Rick of the Mountain Movers who have a new record out on Trouble in Mind. We talk about the new record, Pink Skies. We talk about Dan's art (which adorns many of the Mountain Movers albums). We talk about music in general and we delve off into different directions here and there.

On this month's podcast we talk with Chris Teti. We talk about his beginnings with My Heart to Joy, his first concert before that, his current operations with The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die, Silver Bullet Studios and a lot more.
From mastering (like the recent Fiddlehead record!) to driving all over the country and flying all over the world, we talk about his experiences in Connecticut's quiet corner and his experiences being flown around Brazil. It's a wide range of talking points to be sure.
It was recently brought to my attention that we zoom past the music at the top of the podcast and it might be nice to have it typed out so here we have it:

On this month's episode we talk to David & Danny of T Wreck from New London, CT!

On this month's episode we talk to John Bastone. If you've been to a Record Riot (there's about 8 of them currently - record fairs that occur in Cromwell, New Haven, East Hartford, Trumbull, New Jersey...) then you've most likely seen John and very likely heard him. He's a boisterous personality with a great love for pop rock and music in general. We talk about the stores he once owned, running fairs, trends in the music selling business, and y'know music and stuff. Couple neat anecdotes in the mix - one of which about a burgeoning star that once worked for John.

On this month's episode we talk to Carlos (Los) Wells and Rick Omonte of the soon opening State House venue in New Haven. We talk about the many aspects of opening a venue and focus on what will be happening there (shows, screenings, meet-ups...). We veer off into band territory with Rick (who is a member of Mountain Movers and a multitude of former bands) and into record label territory with Los (who runs Safety Meeting Records). And we surely veered off into other tidbits here and there too.

Record store owners talking shop about record store things starting with Ian's backstory and developing into ethical discussion, gripes and lots of other detour topics from record store owners' perspectives.

We're getting there with the quality and it's certainly a NYE resolution to elevate it.]

On this month's episode we once again quickly cover some things that each us (Rick & Josh) are listening to, go over new releases and list some upcoming shows in greater Connecticut.
We talk to Randy Larsen of Cable and Slowdeath (and various other projects) about a bunch of things that make him cranky and a few that don't.
In between talking to Randy at the beginning and end we talk to Al Oimet of The Pist, M-13 and The Deacons (and various other projects) about growing up a punk in CT who was highly influenced by David Bowie and the upcoming Pist gigs.
We're still new so I'm going to repeat this introductory paragraph:

We had some growing pains on Episode 2 here where it sounds like we're in space (some room sound reverb that new microphones I wasn't familiar with brought) so just think of it that way. I put some fun space-type bumpers on it to set the mood.
On this episode we talked to "the internet's busiest music nerd" Anthony Fantano of The Needle Drop. He recently flew past the million followers mark on his YouTube channel. We talk about new music, his general goings-on including his 10 Year Anniversary tour and more!
The local 10 Year Ann. show is in Hamden at the Ballroom at the Outer Space on October 30th - event page is here.
About an hour in we talk to Kryssi Battalene from New Haven about her musical endeavors - focusing on the new Headroom album that comes out on October 20th (New Haven release show event page here). We also talk a bit about touring with the Mountain Movers and snacks!
We end the show by going over the upcoming shows in the CT area with Anthony and he figures out that we don't have a sign off and just kind of end the show.
Rick and Josh talk about their heavy summer listening and some upcoming records they feel are of note.
Ben Levesque of College Street Music Hall, Manic Presents & Premier Concerts is included in the initial conversation which includes his dealings with show production, promoting and all therein. The conversation veers in a few musical and personal story directions.
The initial conversation is wrapped up with a list of upcoming Connecticut area shows with some editorial notes by Ben, Rick & Josh.
Stefan Christensen (formerly of Estrogen Highs) talks about his new solo record, his C/Site Recordings music label, the upcoming Headroom record, touring Europe and general goings on around all that as well as some veering off points of discussion concluding with a fun story about a nice hunch that led to a great record score. We conclude with a snipped of a song from his new record.
