E82 A Conversation with Oxymorrons (Part 2)
This week, we're scratching The Itch... to learn. We had a great time laughing in the first part of our interview with the most electrifying band in alt entertainment, Oxymorrons. The laughs continue in the second half, but the conversation takes some turns into rich discussions about performance vs authenticity, the "freedom" of social media, the struggle of being a POC band, and existence as resistance. If you're down with a crash course in Justice 101, this episode is for you. And if you're not down with that... Degeneration-oX has two words for ya.
Check out these dudes on all the socials @oxymorrons, and give their new EP, Mohawks & Durags, like 800 more spins!

E84 Top 10 Albums of 2021 (Part 2)
This week, we're scratching the itch for a list! And not just any list, but our collective (and slightly contentious) list of the Top 10 Rock Albums of 2021. After so many bands put a pause on album releases in 2020 since they couldn't tour behind them, 2021 felt like someone took the cap off of a shaken up bottle of delicious Dr. Pepper and great music just exploded everywhere. Or something. Anyway, these albums rocked all of the face and should be immediately added to your listening rotation... if they haven't already. Let us know how much you love these albums, or if we missed some albums you loved!
Also, the votes are in for the seven categories of the 2021 Itch Awards! Stay tuned later this week as we learn live during the recording exactly which of our nominees you chose!
