from The Distorted Dialogue Podcast · host Metal Institute of Thrashology
On Episode 18 of the Distorted Dialogue Podcast, John Scarlata sits down to discuss his latest EP, Ascendance. A unique approach to punk rock, Scarlatamusic is a one man band who does it all, except for the drumming, but it is an eclectic mix of instrumental punk rock that he performs all by hisself. John goes into the difficulties in finding a band, so he just decided to do it all himself. Oddly enough, John doesn't just play skate punk, he lives it, as he is a shredder both on the guitars and the skateboard as he actually plays guitar while he skates and often posts doing both. A quality EP, Ascendance was a great little introduction to his music, so head over and check it out! 🎙️ Distorted Dialogue | A Podcast from The Metal Institute of Thrashology 🤘Welcome to Distorted Dialogue, the official podcast of The Metal Institute of Thrashology — where riffs meet ridiculousness and academia bows before the almighty arpeggio.Each episode dives deep, headfirst into the chaotic realms of metal, punk, hardcore, and beyond with band members, scene lifers, and other unholy scholars of sound.
