Behind the Noise: Interview With Australia's Intoxicatingly Emphatic Alt-Rock Band Yours Truly

Mikaila: [It] took [us] about a year to write TOXIC. A year of collaborating, co-writing, meeting up with people, making friends with people, and being like, “Hey, let's write a song together!” And then collating all the songs. And then getting to a year later, [we realized] that we had so many songs. Probably more than what we have [had] in the past. Then, [we had] to go through all of those songs that we wrote, so many of them were so different, and [pick] out ten. And then [we were] like, “Co...

Behind the Noise: Interview With The Phat Indie Alt-Rock Band Phatt James

Chris: Yeah, I think as a collective, it's definitely a stressful process when you sit down and look at the nine to ten songs that we put together for the album. It's kind of daunting when you first sit down. You're like, “Wow, this is a task to sit down and [put together].” Matty J is the songwriter of Phatt James. It’s [his] brainchild. He writes all the lyrics, the chords, and the guitar parts. So, to sit down and put together all these songs that he had previously written before that we had...

Behind the Noise: Interview With The Exhilarating Returning Hardcore Band GHOSTxSHIP

Sean: Man, it's so weird ‘cause I see people post their first shows, and they're always so sick. I grew up in Watertown, New York. It's pretty much Canada. It's [about] ten minutes away from the Canadian border, but it's [still] New York. It's what I call upstate New York. A lot of people everywhere else think upstate New York is just near the city. It's like, “No, I live like four hours away from the city. I'm nowhere close to the city whatsoever.” That's upstate New York, not just right next t

Behind the Noise: Interview With Orlando's Lively "Emo Trash" Rock Band FELICITY

Drew: We've always had this never-say-die attitude. Failure was never an option. There was never a point where we ever questioned whether we were going to keep going. Even through the darkest times, which I don't even know what [to consider] the darkest [times to be]. I can speak for myself; it always feels like we're just getting started. It always feels like we're a brand-new band. It doesn't feel like it's been a ten-year journey. It feels like the last song we put out is just the beginning o

Behind the Noise: Interview With Southtowne Lanes

Matt: So, it's me, Tyler, Helena, and Matt. Tyler, the other guitar player in the band, [and I] have known each other since kindergarten. since we were little kids. [We grew] up together. So, we've always had a relationship. And then we all met in high school, essentially. After [we had] graduated high school, we all loved playing emo music. So, it started the way it does a lot of the time. We would all go to the same parties, and we [would] be at the same friends’ houses hanging out, and we wer

Behind the Noise: Interview With Philadelphia's Richly Dynamic Rock Artist Comprador

Charlie: When I was really little, I liked Fantasia a lot. Like the old Disney animated movie, especially the sequence with the dinosaurs, which [features] Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. Early on, orchestral stuff like that made an impression on me. It's kind of embarrassing because I think he's [a] xenophobic shithead, but the first rock song I remember making a big impression on me was ‘Layla.’ the Eric Clapton song. I only liked the first half when I was a little kid because it sounds pissed of

Behind the Noise: Interview With Nashville's Raw, Upcoming Pop-Punk Artist Cameron Alexander

Cameron: I originally got into it [doing it the collaborative] way. [As] I told you, I did that band when I was twelve. And since then, I've just been in and out of bands for a long time. I just never really found a group of people that wanted to do the type of music I wanted to do. I never found anyone [who] was into pop-punk and wanted to do that kind of thing. And even beyond that, [I never found] people I really clicked with. I knew all the instruments myself anyway, and I was starting to us

Essie Randles on expanding their sense of humanity to encompass their characters – Phosphor Magazine

Let’s go back to the beginning of your career. Was there a defining moment when you realized that this is what you wanted to do? I’ve always loved performing, and I’ve wanted to be an actor since I was a kid, but there are two moments that I can pinpoint. The first was when I was five years old, and I did a performing arts night at my school. I remember my mom saying [afterward] that it was the happiest she’d ever seen me in my life, and that made me want to keep chasing that feeling. I had a ti

Full of fun-loving yet still heavy experimentation, The Callous Daoboys continued to break the mold with the EP. Pushing the envelope (pun intended) with a more whimsically experimental sound and more straightforward lyrical messages, God Smiles Upon The Callous Daoboys traverses through each track, leaving you with

Ashley Alexander on finding her voice as a content creator – Phosphor Magazine

I thought we would start off with a fun little game of Would You Rather. Your first question is, would you rather be immortal or have the choice to be reincarnated as any animal of your choosing? I would probably choose to be reincarnated as a red panda. Is that your favorite animal? Would you rather have a clone or a personal robot for a day? I’m going to have to go [with a] clone because that would be crazy. Would you rather visit a country you’ve always dreamed of visiting but only for a day,

Regan Aliyah on growing up with a long family history of creatives and staying honest and authentic for her character portrayals – Phosphor Magazine

Have you heard of the game, Would You Rather? I have. It’s a classic. I feel like everyone has. So, I thought it would be fun to do a couple Would You Rather questions to start this off. Okay, I’m excited. Let’s do it. The first one is, would you rather be reincarnated as an exotic animal or have a talking exotic animal as a pet? I feel like that’s tough because being reincarnated as the exotic animal is cool, and if I had a talking animal, that does not mean that the talking animal would like m

I’m gonna come up with a few words, and I want you to tell me the first thing that comes into your head, pig.

Oh my God. I’m the mayor of Popcorn Opolis. Silicon Valley that’s my favorite TV show ever. So I love popcorn. Yes. Silicon Valley comes to mind.

Apples. Washington state, [since] I grew up there.

Door. Mexico. I love the doors in Mexico, they’re really cool. They’re blue and kind of rustic looking and peeling, and they’re all these different colors. And I remember the doors in Mexico
