The Chariot Interview on Ryan’s Rock Show

Given the current state of the music industry, it’s often hard to know if a band creates art, or if they’re a manufactured product designed to sell. Half of the time at shows, it’s hard to tell if a band is playing for real, or if they’re playing to pre-recorded tracks. The Chariot vocalist Josh Scogin agrees.

“We know so many bands that aren’t playing for real, it’s all tracks. I get it if you’re Britney Spears or Garth Brooks, then who cares. But our world, the punk rock/rock & roll world, trickling into that world– that sucks.”

Top 10 Albums of 2010

As the 2010 year comes to a close, we (by we, I mean me) here at Ryan’s Rock Show have compiled a list of essential releases that are must-haves for any music enthusiast. After days of shifting through past news posts, re-listening to countless records, and filtering out bullshit bands, I’ve narrowed down all the releases covered on this site throughout 2010 to the top 10 best albums of the year. A side note to readers, while writing this article I made it a point NOT to view other top albums lists, to assure objectiveness and eliminate outside influence. This list does not focus on a particular scene or genre, and was not consciously influenced by factors associated with social merit. All feedback is encouraged (ryan#ryansrockshow.com). Happy New Year, people! And now back to my sauerkraut.
