62. Blue Meanies (w/ PWRUP)

Checkered Past heads to Illinois to talk about the TV Smashers themselves: Blue Meanies! For the discussion they bring along return guests Aaron, Eric and Justin of Western Mass genre band: PWRUP! They talk about local shows in Edmonton, Eric's Checkered Past and the angular Chicago music scene before diving into the meanies from their stoner, jam band roots to their million-mile-an-hour heyday in the 90s to their strange major label finale in the 00s. Its all capped off with an equally high speed game of Get Thrashed!

PWRUP

Having influences in punk, hardcore, ska, metal, and prog rock, PWRUP’s conception during the Spring of 2018 was to create music without limitations. From Western Massachusetts, their unique punk rock style of vocal harmonies, fast and heavy riffing, ska breakdowns and a trombone brings high energy to their live performances.
