Vince Neilstein and Axl Rosenberg from MetalSucks are the guests this week on CreativeLive's Music & Audio Podcast.
We chatted about the day-to-day realities of “the content business,” struggling to have opinions on stuff that you may or may not actually care about, dealing with the negativity of internet culture, and tons more. I would highly recommend this one not just to people who are interested in metal or read MS, but anyone who wants to be in the blogging or content business.
Mike Mowery, the CEO of Outerloop Management and Outerloop Records, is on the latest episode of the Creativelive Music & Audio Podcast.
We caught up with Mike to talk about his journey from hardcore kid to business owner, how he deals with the day to day challenges of managing a huge roster of active bands, why someone as busy as Mike would ever want to start a label, and of course some stories about old hardcore bands.
Tommy Rogers and Jamie King were on the latest CreativeLive Podcast.
We chatted with them about what’s made their 15-year working relationship so strong, how they approach Tommy’s solo material vs BTBAM, why it is a really bad idea to show up at the studio with nothing more than some Guitar Pro files, and how the ’90s DIY scene shapes how we do things today.

A great guitar sound is the centerpiece of modern rock, metal, pop-punk, and metalcore. Join producer Andrew Wade (A Day to Remember, The Ghost Inside, The Word Alive, etc) for an intensive look into the rock guitar techniques every producer and engineer needs to know.
In this two-day course, Andrew will teach you everything you need to know about creating huge, thick guitar tones. You’ll learn how to prep and setup, and develop best practices for tracking guitars. He’ll cover both real amp and amp sims, mixing in your DAW, and more.
Whether you’re recording tracks at home or in a professional studio, this course will give you concrete, easy-to-apply techniques for taking your guitar sounds to the next level.
