Pretty Good Vibrations – Détails, épisodes et analyse

MxPx. Slick Shoes. Project 86. Plankeye. Craig's Brother. Dogwood. Starflyer 59. Chances are good that these band names either 1) mean nothing at all to you, which makes you an average American, or 2) meant EVERYTHING to you for a few years of your life and probably still mean something. The rest of you have probably heard MxPx, but maybe nobody else on this list. For my longtime friend and guest Jon Havens and I, these bands meant pretty much everything to us at one point, and although we've moved on from most of them musically (not all of them!), listening back through the 90s catalog of Seattle Christian indie record label Tooth & Nail was the perfect excuse to revisit the years of our early friendship. We were Christian rock subculture kids, spending a lot of time at Evangelical youth group and swapping discs we got at Berean or Lifeway Christian Bookstore. And how did we not talk AT ALL about using rotary phone cords as wallet chains...? Listen as we pit 16 of these artists against each other in a bracket-style tournament.

**THIS IS PART 3** Ben Bishop is back! This time, we bask in the glow of the FM radio dial as we pit 70s pop and rock superstars against each other. We're talking Bowie, Zeppelin, Jackson Browne, Fleetwood Mac, Billy Joel, Elton John... Episodes will continue to come out during this hectic next year of my life, but not on a weekly basis. A '90s Tooth & Nail Records tournament has been recorded but not edited yet, and we'll see what else gets added to the queue... Thanks everyone for listening!

** This is Part 2 ** ** Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/lJfetnfLjBE ** Scott Carlton, longtime close friend of mine and alum of Drive Thru and Tooth & Nail Records, finally convinced me to look deep into the darkest corners of human life and art... 80s glam metal, also known as "hair metal." We're talking Twisted Sister, Poison, Bon Jovi, Quiet Riot. We're talking about some of the most embarrassing moments in American pop and rock music. And, sadly, we are talking about the most popular era of heavy metal in global history! But Scott humanizes this genre and time period, and of course, we have a ton of fun with the songs and stories themselves. Throw on your big hair wig, break out your hair spray, grab a red solo cup, and come feel the noise!

** Watch this episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPmW3MYvcbd8CMLOUC4o-RA ** On the inaugural "Wish I Wrote That" episode, I sit down with my old friend Ethan Luck (Relient K, Project 86, The O.C. Supertones, The Dingees, Demon Hunter) to talk about SoCal punk band Face to Face. I highlight their 2000 track "You Couldn't Had Everything," why I wished I had written the song back when it came out, and why I still love it today. We also hear Ethan's history and friendship with Trever Keith and the Face to Face crew, and talk about/listen to a few other great songs of theirs.

** This is Part 2 -- start last week with Part 1 ** Nirvana. The Smashing Pumpkins. Rage Against the Machine. Sublime. Green Day. Oasis. Soundgarden. Cake. Those of us who came of age with these bands should consider ourselves lucky. What a rich time for rock (and pop) music! Sherwood's own Joe Greenetz, who has been "preparing for this moment all his life," returns for a 35-artist mega-tournament to crown the Kings (or Queens) of Teen Angst.
