Save It For The Breakdown

Welcome to Episode 3 of Save It For The Breakdown.

In this episode The Gersch and I sit down and talk with Drew Schwemer A.K.A. Drew X Blood A.K.A #KillMe. Drew is the vocalist for Cutting Losses as well as the Straight Edge band XOffedX. On top of being a hardcore vocalist, Drew is also an M.C., so we also spend a good chunk of time talking about hip-hop as well as hardcore.

As usual most of the best conversations and exchanges happened off mic, but after going back to listen to everything, I think that we covered a lot of ground. This was a fun conversation, and it ran a bit long. So long in fact that this will be a two-part episode. Episode 3 and Episode 3.1

As usual I want to thank everyone for listening, Radio Mike for hosting, and Drew X Blood for coming to hang out. Drew, you are welcome to be a recurring guest if you like.

Welcome to the second episode of SIFTB. We want to thank all of our friends for listening to the first episode. Now tell all of your friends to listen as well.

I had fun putting this one together. The Gersch and I dug up some old Austin, Texas hardcore from the early 1990s, and we also included some more recent Austin bands as well.

Until we raise the money, we will be hosting the podcast at Podmatic. You can also find the podcast in iTunes by searching for Save It For The Breakdown. If you do go to iTunes, please feel free to leave a review. We are working with Radio Mike to get things going on Radio Casbah. Hopefully the first two episodes with be up and running there soon.

Bands, labels, and musicians we’d love to play your music on our podcast. You don’t have to send us a whole record or anything. It can be just one song that you would want to get out to the people.
