How Until I Wake Created a Metalcore Masterpiece with Renovate Album | Interview with Jaali

The term "no-skip album" is not a term that gets thrown around lightly in the music industry. It is reserved for those albums in which every song has to stand out, needs to have its own unique, yet cohesive, feel to it, and easily be an album of the year candidate. Yet, we are throwing that term around for this band today.From bringing on a new lead singer since their last album, being locked in a Michigan AirBnb to write this record, and allowing creativity to flow while being guided by Landon Tewers of The Plot in You, this band achived a no-skip album.Jaali from the metalcore band Until I Wake joins the Chord Progression Podcast, as we are on the heels of the release of the band's no-skip album Renovate. Join us on this episode of greatness as we discuss:How Jaali joined the band 9 days before going out on tour to support Imminence, and how seriously he took to improving his clean vocals following his first time playing live with Until I Wake.Writing Renovate with Landon Towers, and how the writing processed allowed each member to maximize their own style in both an individual and collaborative way.The songs that both Jaali and Kevin are suggesting you check out on Renovate, a 2024 Album of the Year candidate.Easily one of the best albums we have heard all year, and a great conversation to add to it. Don't miss out on discovering great new bands, or enjoying an in-depth look at the bands you already love.

How 156/Silence Redefine thier Metalcore Sound: Synths, Clean Vocals & Creativity on People Watching

Back in 2018, Kerrang called this band one of the 6 Underground Metal Bands Redefining the Scene. In the past 6 years, this band has continued to make heavy music to please your ears, and make you fall in love with metalcore all over again.Now in 2024, how are they living up to that moniker of a band redefining the scene? Well there is a new album coming out, and it includes an evolved sound on it as well.Jack from Pittsburgh metalcore band 156/Silence joins the Chord Progression Podcast. With the band on tour supporting Sings of the Swarm, and with a new album "People Watching" due out on September, we answer that question by discussing:How the band evolved their sound on People Watching by including more synths and cleans that were inspired by metalcore from the early to mid 2000's (think onlder The Devil Wears Prada for reference).Why trying new things with your music fosters your continued creativity, and the reason you should not just stick with the same sound and riffs over and over again.With a greater focus on both clean singing and unclean scraems, what Jack has been doing to prioritize his vocal health on stage.A fantastic episode right before the release of a new dynamic album. Want more moments like this?

Will Future Palace Break Out with New Album 'Distortion'? | Interview with Maria Lessing

2 years ago when Future Palace released their second album run, we brought lead singer Maria to the podcast. And we thought the band would grow large following that album. So what happened to them?While they have not toured the USA (yet), they have grown over in Europe playing support slots for Electric Callboy, becoming a mainstay on major festival lineups across the continent, and going on European-wide headlining tours. However, the band has also dealt with personal struggles accepting this success, and growing in confidence while not showing fear in expressing their beliefs through the music they make.With the release of the band's 3rd album, Distortion, set to come out on September 6th, Maria returns to the Chord Progression Podcast to prepare you for the rise of Future Palace across the world. We discussMaria's struggle dealing with imposter syndrome, as the band works to accept their fantastic growth and understand that the positive impact caused by their music is well deserved.The reaction to the single The Echoes of Disparity, and why Maria will continue to be herself and fully express her views in music, along with the reality in response the band may have to deal with going forward.A look into the new album, why A Fool on a Devil's Reins may just be their best song so far, and why this should be the album to send Future Palace into the next level of success.This is an episode and a band not to miss.

Growing From a Local to a Regional Band: The How-To Steps from Old Neon

Not only does the Chord Progression Podcast show you some of the best upcoming bands in rock and metal, we get to give advice to bands that want to grow as well. And today, is one of those days for both.We have a band that has built up a large fanbase in their local community. But, what is the plan for them to break out of the local scene, and become a bigger regional band, then national band, then international band? Well, they share just that.Midwest Emo/Pop Punk band Old Neon joins the Chord Progression Podcast, to prove why they are going to break into that regional status, on their way to international band status. So this episode, we talk about:The plan Old Neon has to continue to build strong fan bases and communities in the pop punk & emo genre outside of their local scene, and grow regionally.Why an openness to collaboration with newer band members has allowed Old Neon to create a more evolved sound, and leave the door open for further exploration.A look into Old Neon's evolving sound on Whatever Helps you Sleep At Night, and how a YouTube tutorial led to its Midwest Emo influence.Another great band to discover, and another great band to learn from.
