What is going on everybody and thanks for checking out We Gotta Know Podcast Episode number 5, Strain part two with guitarist John Franco and drummer Chris Walker, who filled me in on how they both got into Hardcore, came to joining Strain in 1995, as well as show and tour stories, their recollections on recording the classic Here and Now album and Our End E.P. as well as some great stories about vocalist Jody Taylor, who sadly died far too young in 2016.

WGK EPISODE 4 STRAIN (Part 1) Eric FlexYourHead and Sean Lande

Episode 4

Friday, May 7, 2021 • Duration 02:16:23

Hello and thanks for checking out We Gotta Know Podcast Episode number 4 with bassist Eric Flex Your head and guitarist Sean Lande of the seminal 1990’s Vancouver hardcore powerhouse Strain, to talk about their formation, their history, tour stories as well as remembering vocalist Jody Taylor who died in a tragic workplace accident in 2016. Strain is one of my favorite bands, and I was lucky enough to have seen them many times from their start in the early 90’s, all the way through to their final shows in the early 2000’s. The influence and impact Strain have had and still have on the Vancouver Hardcore scene, as well as the entire Northwest Hardcore scene is immeasurable. We hope you enjoy. Please support the Podcast by subscribing on your listening platform which will keep you up to date with upcoming episodes, including Strain Part two coming soon. Thanks.

WE GOTTA KNOW EPISODE 3

MIKE HARTSFIELD

What’s up everybody and thanks for checking out We Gotta Know Podcast Episode number three. Today we have the one and only Mike Hartsfield. Mike has been a part of the California hardcore scene going back to 80’s, has played guitar in such notable bands as Freewill, Outspoken, A18, Done Dying, Dear Furious and many more. Mike is the owner of New Age records which has released countless classic Straight Edge and hardcore releases, many among my own personal favourites, since the labels humble beginnings way back in 1988. Mouthpiece, Unbroken, Strife, Chorus of Disapproval, Turning Point, Outspoken, Redemption 87, Strain, Trial, Amendment 18, Safe and Sound, the list goes on and on and continues to this day. The influence that New Age has had on Hardcore is not limited to California, or even North America, but the world. I was honored to talk to Mike about what’s been going on with himself, life during Covid, the label, his bands, the recently launched New Age podcast, getting into rap in the 80’s and the importance of Willie D and the Geto Boys. With us both being huge old school Wrestling fans, We also talked in depth about Mike’s start and eventual role as live event manager for XPW Pro Wrestling, as well as his own hands on involvement in one of pro-wrestling’s most infamous and insane matches of all time. If you are digging the podcast and would like to support us, please give us a like and give us a quick review on your listening platform, which helps us out immensely and be sure to subscribe to be kept up to date with future episodes. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did. -JxK
