  • Diarrhea Planet
    Diarrhea Planet I’m Rich Beyond Your Wildest Dreams “What's in a name? that which we call a rose / By any other name would smell as sweet." - Romeo and Juliet If Shakespeare was alive to get the Led out, he would've listened to Diarrhea Planet, Nashville's favorite six-piece rock and roll band. Outfitted with a drummer and bassist that barrel forth with the power of a thousand locomotives and a four guitar arsenal able to unleash a meticulous torrent of expertly crafted hooks, riffs and solos, DP take everything you knew you loved about rock, punk and pop, jack it up way past 11, and leave you catching your breath and massaging the kink in your neck from all that head banging. Over the past few years, Diarrhea Planet have packed basements, bars and clubs with enough power to cause a blackout at the Super Bowl (no one said they were not responsible for this year's fiasco), honing their chops and fine-tuning their shred. Diarrhea Planet's 2011 debut Loose Jewels (Infinity Cat) was a 100-meter sprint of pure joy, peppered with shred offs, fret-taps and a whole lot of whooping and hollering, fleshed out by undeniable pop sensibilities. For their next album, the band wanted to go as big as possible and delivered just that. They headed to Marcata Recordings, the barn-turned-studio in upstate New York owned and operated by Kevin S. McMahon, famed indie producer of records by Titus Andronicus, Swans, The Walkmen, Real Estate, and many others.

  • JEFF the Brotherhood
    JEFF The Brotherhood Wasted on the Dream “We’re more proud of this record than any record we’ve made before,” enthuses singer/guitarist Jake Orrall about Wasted On The Dream, the righteous new album from Nashville rockers JEFF The Brotherhood. “It’s the most time we’ve ever spent writing songs, the most time we’ve ever spent in the studio, and it’s definitely the most fully realized JEFF The Brotherhood record we’ve ever made.” “Jake and I wanted to make a really fun rock album that could reach a lot of different people,” adds drummer Jamin Orrall. “And we’ve succeeded” Wasted On The Dream is the record the Orrall brothers been building up to since they first formed JEFF The Brotherhood in 2001. It’s a van-rocking, bong-rattling slab that authentically captures their fiery mixture of 70s hard rock, 80s punk, 90’s grunge and indelible pop melodies. “People like to lump us in with the garage thing, because there aren’t any other heavy rock bands that are playing the circuit that we’re playing,” says Jake. “But we’re not interested in playing three-chord punk or blues songs; we play hard rock, and we’re all about the pop hook. Bands like Foo Fighters, Weezer and Queens of the Stone Age — that’s who we aspire to be” Co-produced by JEFF The Brotherhood with Joe Chiccarelli (The Strokes, Poco, My Morning Jacket, Beck), tracks like “Voyage Into Dreams,” “Melting Place” and “Karaoke, TN” are loaded with muscular guitars, pounding drums, sky-punching riffs and effortlessly catchy choruses.

A postgrad year is another year of high school, while a gap year usually involves traveling and isn’t as academically oriented. Seniors from the class of 2012 that will be taking a gap year include Luke Costley, Tom Dils, and Katie Swoap, while Ryan Mahar will be taking a PG year. What would entice a student not to go directly to college? Greylock seniors had varying motives for taking gap or PG years. Although Katie Swoap already traveled halfway around the world when she lived in Australia several years ago, she still yearns for adventure. Swoap says, “I first Photo courtesy of Jacob and Hannah Paul heard of gap years when I was in Australia, and that is when I knew I wanted to take one.” Swoap will be taking her gap year For this month's 1-in-650, we sat down in Argentina for eleven months through the Photo: Jonah Majumder with Hannah and Jacob Paul.
