153. halftimeshow: Bryce & AJ break down their debut album "Soft Spot" & AJ Challenges Ronnie Radke | Emo Kids Anonymous
Welcome to EKA153! Today we are once again joined by Bryce and AJ of the band halftimeshow out of Joplin MO (among other places. As you know, the halftimeshow song Hero of Roku City is our shows theme song and the band has finally released the follow up, their first full length "soft spot". Unfortunately we had some technical difficulties come into play that took out about 30 minutes of this interview (I'm blaming Big Emo. Or honestly, it could have been Berkeley considering we lost the part where Bryce said he prefers Arden's version of the Pinhead EP...). Regardless, this was a great time and we implore you all to go check out their new record Soft Spot!---------------------------------------With multiple new episodes every week, Emo Kids Anonymous is your home for emo and everything else.

151. Kiss The Scientist: KROQ, Kylo Ren, Emo Origins & The Price of Pringles | Emo Kids Anonymous
Welcome to EKA152! Today We're joined by Max Tomack-Villalobos from the band Kiss The Scientist outta the 818! KTS are signed to Take This To Heart like so many previous guests (Palette Knife, T!IHI, PONY, Future Teens) so we knew we had to have them on! Fresh off the heels of releasing a new single and their debut EP, Max was kind enough to tell us the bands history, his random Hoobastank connection, his favorite Adam Driver and Brendan Fraser movies and so much more! We touch on how special KROQ was to Southern California (and just how far they've fallen off) as well as how the band found themselves making "midwest emo" after first planning on being a bit more of a blues band. Kiss The Scientist have a ton of exciting moves on the horizon, and it's going to be fun watching this band explode.

Welcome to EKA149! Today we're joined by Skiimo out of Denver Colorado! This interview was a long time comin'! Skiimo were originally supposed to be on in December of last year but had to cancel last minute. I was supposed to see Skiimo here in SoCal a few weeks later, but I wasn't able to make it. Finally, 6 months later we get a chance to meet. During this conversation with Bryson and Zack, we talk about the bands separate origins in the midwest, moving to Denver, and starting the band. These fellas keep busy. Late last year they released their first full length album Nothing Ever Changes and we talk all about the making of that as well as the two EPs they released before it (all in a 14 or so month span? sheesh). Skiimo share the story of getting Cory Castro from Free Throw's attention and how the opportunity to work together came to be. Also, we may or may not confirm Skiimo LP2 in this episode. It's a very revealing conversation and it was well worth the wait.But wait, there's more!
