Fellow Vinyl Vloggers,

This is Matt, I am new here. Get acquainted with me, I might be here a while.  Welcome to the first of many posts that we intend to help you stay informed on Vinyl Vlog happenings, maybe on a weekly basis? The kinks have yet to be worked out, so we will keep you posted. What does this mean for Vinyl Vlog, you ask? We are going to be providing you with a plethora of information regarding your favorite bands and labels, new releases, re-releases, second pressings, interviews, live footage, and maybe even some photos.

I recently had the chance to sit down and film the newest episode with my cohort Joshua.  We posted a new interview with Vinnie from LTJ and P+P, so be sure to check that out. This is a new interview we did with Vinnnie about a year or so after our first convo.

In other news, last week I had the chance to sit down with Larry from Pelican and Rafa from Black Cobra.  We will be posting a TEXT version of the Pelican interview and a normal Vinyl Vlog episode with Black Cobra. The Black Cobra interview was done by my buddy Dave, who you may see from time to time. A lot of exciting things going on in the world of Southern Lord, Pelican, and Black Cobra, and we have all the info ready for your viewing pleasure. WE MAY ALSO HAVE A BIG CONTEST COMING UP INVOLVING BOTH OF THESE BANDS SO STAY TUNED.

“Wait a second, did he just say Southern Lord, Pelican, and Black Cobra all in the same sentence? Am I on the Vinyl Vlog site right now? Did I take too much acid last night?”

Yes, yes, and maybe?  We are going to be broadening our scope of music here as well.  Joshua and I got together for the love of music and wax. We grew up listening to all the same bands and buying the same records. At the same time, we have a love for a variety of different styles of music as our old age grows upon us. We are looking for new viewers, new bands, and more content.  Upcoming segments may include labels Bridge 9, some more Southern Lord, Magic Bullet, Polyvinyl, Suicide Squeeze, and more of your favorite bands we already cover. I think Henry Rollins is coming to Boston soon? Does he like vinyl? Let’s find out!
 
Well, thanks for having me here, I hope you enjoy the latest video posted, and I hope you enjoy the bright future of things to come here at VV.  There are plenty of things to get excited about. I hope you enjoy the new direction we will be going in, as always, stay tuned for new contests, new interviews, new reviews, be well.

- Matt

Howdy Doody!

Two weeks ago Less Than Jake stopped in Boston for a show and let me tell you, in 1998 I saw them for the first time with All, Snuff, Discount and they were amazing. 10 years later I just saw them again and sure enough…still simply amazing! Do yourself a favor and check them out while they are on tour!

Now we will be releasing a new Vinyl Vlog episode soon with the interview but to tide you over we have 5 vids I took.
