Show #143: Infamous
By: Darrin Snider (darrin at indyintune dot com)Monday, March 18, 2013 5:00:00 PM
Amazing the kind of stuff that goes on right in your own neighborhood without you even knowing it. I mean, I like to think I have my finger on the pulse of the Indianapolis music scene. I'm known in just about every circle, I'm welcomed at punk shows, hip hop shows, metal shows, and everything in between. I've cracked the DIY scene and gone underground to basement shows that few know about. I've even learned the lingo of that economy and I'm secretly trying to work out a currency exchange and futures market for it, because I would love to have an endless supply of nutter butter cookies flowing to my house as dividend payments ... you know, so I don't have to go to the store to get them.
I was completely unaware, however, that I had metal band with 3000 Facebook followers living in my neighborhood, going to school with my daughter, and regularly drawing enviable crowds at a popular teenage hangout less than a mile from my home. Well, at least until a friend of mine brought it to my attention. Believe me, if you think your daughter has issues with you now, wait 'til you invite her peers over to the house to play "radio" in the basement. I don't want to say it's socially awkward or anything, but few other girls probably have these issues if you stop to think about it.

- Infamous can be found here: Facebook | Reverbnation | YouTube | Twitter

- It was produced by Mike Lyons and Ryan Atkins at Azmyth Recording.

Solicitations and Submissions
Solicitations for blog posts can be made by sending and email to "blog -at- indyintune -dot- com" and should follow these guidelines:
- Local (Indianapolis-based) acts always have priority.
- Visisting acts playing a bill with one or more local acts are also considered.
- We generally don't like to repeat content found on other sites. If your request already has a lot of coverage on other sites, it will be considered low-priority unless you can give us an exclusive angle.
- For obvious reasons, we don't do solicited album reviews, though we do appreciate you letting us know when you have a new release. Consider coming in and talking about the album yourself live on the air or a podcast.
- All of our staff writers are unpaid enthusiasts. All requests for blog posts are entirely at their descretion.
- As such, they generally need a lot of lead-time to put something out -- we're talking weeks of lead time, not hours.
- That said, individual authors have full authority to ignore the following guidelines and write whatever they want ... if you can convince them to.
- In addition, feel free to write your own post and submit it for posting as a "guest blogger." Those almost always get accepted.
- Finally, regional or national acts submitting without meeting the above guidelines are generally ignored. We're not trying to be dicks, but if you send us a generic form-letter with your press release, and it doesn't even remotely concern a local artist or event, then you're not part of our core focus.
