This week’s podcast features only one band not from North America (and they’re from Sweden of course) but the sound and attitude are universal. From the sleazy hard rock of Down on Me to the sad, classic ballad of Goodbye this week’s show rocks from beginning to end.

This week’s Rock and Roll Report Podcast is another healthy helping of great rock and roll from some very cool indie and unsigned bands from around the world who I never hear on commercial rock radio. Hope you like this week’s serving!

I was reading this week that 75% of all podcast listeners listen to them at their computers and if you are doing so I think you are missing out on one of the great advantages of a podcast which is its portability. You can listen to the Rock and Roll Report Podcast whenever and wherever you choose so download it to your MP3 player (you don’t need an iPod to listen to a podcast) or burn it to a CD and play it in your car, on the bus, while jogging or at the beach or in the pool. Yes, in the pool if you have the very cool (and very expensive) Radio Raft pictured above.

Podcast 16 to me makes me want to hit the town and just blow off steam. I don’t know if it is Kat and Sugar (pictured above), the Sex Slaves track “We’re Going Out Tonight” or the fact that this was recorded on a beautiful summery day, all I know is that I wanted to head downtown and paint the town red after recording it.

Email me at rockandrollreport@gmail.com and let me know what you thought of the show or drop me a comment on the Listener Line at 206-206-339-3646. Some of the tracks on this show came from the Podsafe Music Network, a very cool resource that bands should take advantage of to make it easier for podcasters to play and promote their music.

Well Rock and Roll Report Podcast #15 is here with your usual array of amazing rock and roll that just so happens to be produced by bands and artists that are either unsigned or are signed to independent record labels. Why these bands are not played on commercial rock radio is beyond me (well we know why but let’s not get into the whole “commercial rock radio is all about advertising” rant that just pisses me off).

I think you will agree that some of the best, if not THE best rock and roll is produced by artists and bands who are not on major labels. Whether this will ever change is doubtful as the whole business model that the majors are following is looking increasingly fragile but be that as it may, there is plenty of great music to be found if you just seek it out.

This week marks the first back to back podcasts in awhile and I hopefully will be able to stick to a more consistent podcast a week instead of 2-3 a month. This week’s podcast is all over the rock and roll map with power pop, hard rock, punk, “indie rock” (for want of a better description) all meshing together in a fine rock and roll stew.

As usual, all the bands and artists are either unsigned or on independent record labels and yet they all rock consistently and further my argument that commercial rock radio is missing out on some incredible music as they remain a slave to the advertising controlled corporate playlist.
