Before Their Eyes - Elliott Gruenberg Interview

On the eve of Before Their Eyes newest release, “Untouchable” (2010), we had a chance to talk with Elliott Gruenberg, one of the bands guitar players. The band, hailing from Findlay Ohio, has been very busy touring, with two new upcoming tours to support the Untouchable album; one in the USA, and their first ever tour in Canada. We discuss touring, the new album, tone, and of course guitar gear with Elliott who is quite the gear enthusiast!

Dirty Sweet - Nathan Beale Interview

San Diego based rock band Dirty Sweet has built up an international following, played big festivals, sold out shows, produced music videos, and won awards. All without being on a major record label. Whenever we see this phenomenon take place, it usually means we are looking at a kick-ass band on the verge of something really big. After a brief investigation I figured out why Dirty Sweet is doing so well……they F-ing rock. These guys have the type of song writing that makes a record filled with tracks that are so good, you can’t even pick a handful of singles. They are all that good. Seldom does this happen in my life, but when it does, the band instantly gets added to my “favorite bands” list. Thankfully I was able to talk with Nathan Beale, guitar player for Dirty Sweet, about his guitar rig, the bands upcoming release (“American Spiritual”), and much more.

Nico Vega - Rich Koehler Guitar Interview

Rich Koehler plays guitar in Nico Vega, the American rock band from Los Angeles, California. The band draws a lot of comparisons to the White Stripes, Tina Turner and Janis Joplin, but is really doing its own thing – and doing it damn well. Nico Vega recently released their first full-length album, “Nico Vega”, on MySpace Records, produced by Linda Perry and Tim Edgar. Following the album release, they have been touring like crazy, and lucky for UberProAudio, Rich had a chance to chat about it.

Alesana - Shawn Mike Interview - The Emptiness

Shawn Mike is a creative guy. He not only plays guitar, piano, and sings in the exciting band Alesana, he writes stories too. Alesana’s brand new album The Emptiness showcases the bands songwriting - full of killer hooks, guitar riffs that will rock your socks off, and a new added depth thanks to live strings (quartet). It also casts a spotlight on a story that Shawn and Dennis created. The record is being released with this short story, adding to the awesomeness-factor. UberProAudio spoke with Shawn about the new album, and of course music gear!

We Butter the Bread with Butter Interview

WE BUTTER THE BREAD WITH BUTTER is the musical duo from Lübben in the East of Germany, which has focused on the highly idiosyncratic dubbing and covering of children's well-known songs. Blast-Beat attacks from the drums scrap the lovely melody of "Backe backe Kuchen", buried under tons of sludge-heavy riffs and driving the song with full force and dark growls against the wall. At the end, the audience is stunned before the ruins, alienated and wondering what evil the two gentlemen of WE BUTTER THE BREAD WITH BUTTER must have encountered in their childhood. Luckily, with the recent release of Das Monster aus dem Schrank in the US (available at Hot Topic stores across the nation), UberProAudio had a chance to sit down and talk with Tobias Schultka, vocalist and half the brains of WBTBWB about the latest album, gear, and more.
