Rockers' Odyssey Through High Growls and Life Little Surprises with SIKE!

Space Coast Podcast Network

Ever wondered what it's like to merge the rawness of metal with the steady vibes of Brevard? Tanner and Ryan, the metal core rockers, invite us into their world, where the guttural growls meet the ocean's roar. They take us on a journey through their heavy influences, sharing tales of how bands like Bring Me The Horizon and Underoath helped carve their unique sound. But it's not just about the music; these Melbourne rockers also offer up a slice of their lives, from their hydration quirks to the technicalities of perfecting a vocal growl that could shake the sand off any beachsider.
Strap in for a rollercoaster of emotions as Tanner and Ryan open up about the complexities of maintaining a band that feels more like a family. They reflect on their beginnings, the highs and lows of band dynamics, and how personality compatibility is just as crucial as musical synergy. As we navigate the waves of their creative process, we get a glimpse into their recent collaborative approach to songwriting, diving into themes of relationships gone sour and personal turmoil amidst the backdrop of a global pandemic.
But it's not all heavy riffs and heartache; we also explore the balancing act of modern musicianship. From teaching music to composing for video games, and even making Uber Eats deliveries, one band member shares his hustle to keep the dream alive. Even when venturing into side projects like 'Car Crash Victims' and 'Mechanical Canine,' the duo emphasizes the anchor that is their main project, SIKE!. They reveal the secret to their enduring partnership and tease us with a wild concert tale that proves life in a band is anything but predictable. Join us for this no-holds-barred session that's as much about the music as it is about the musicians behind it.
