photizo

so i have had a few different ideas as to what this blog should be since it began, sometime last year. i am sure it will continue to change a bit as it goes on. but mainly it will be about music and i will endeavor to write about whatever new cds i have got, or what gig i went to, or what ever i notice happening or feel like talking about music. i make no claim to be totally up to date with whatever might be going on in the different scenes, only to what is going on with music in my life.
so here it is, the rebirth of photizo, enlightening you to the music that surrounds me.

Relient K Interview

2005-01-18T14:51:00.000+11:00

Despite having sold more than 365,000 copies of each of their two previous albums, the guys in Relient K still act like the down-to-earth kids they really are. These Buckeye State natives display no attitude, pretentiousness or self-destructive habits. But then again, a band can’t sell that many records without tapping into at least one rock star cliché. Laughs Relient K singer Matt Thiessen, “Well, we almost got arrested the other day!”

Underoath: A Hardcore Day's Night

2004-12-14T16:21:00.000+11:00

Faith-based bands talk about being a light in the darkness, but into exactly how dark a place should a band go? For Tampa-based rockers Underoath, the darker the better. In fact, for the past two years, the band has played a New Jersey hardcore festival with a name that will certainly raise a few eyebrows: “Hellfest.”
