I have a little secret….. I’m a fuckin’ thrill seeker… You know, when I was a lot younger, I used to watch thunderstorms approach and always wondered what it would be like to run into the storm and be picked up by the violent winds and soar through a dark sky. I would imagine what it would be like to be caught in a tornado’s wind tunnel, hurling past large debris thinking that at any moment I could be smashed to pieces! Pure intensity, chaos, and thrill! Now imagine that feeling with precise, pounding groove rhythms…. this is the Madrhymes realm.

This podcast is the recording of their set in its entirety at the US Beer Co. on Friday September 5th. After listening to this recording… at least twice before even posting this, I kept thinking… “When the heck is Madrhymes gonna put out a full length album?” this is something I’ve been waiting for years to hold and hear! They are an amazing band and some of the nicest musicians too!

A tip for those who have never heard Madrhymes and are an avid fan of metal or progressive music… If you see a flier for one of their upcoming gigs…. GO!

Keep up the great work Madrhymes and thank you for your intensity and craftsmanship!

Oh, by the way…. Ponki…. You are my drum Idol! .. Now press the play button already!
