So I just got through posting Synthesis Weekly Managing Editor Ryan Prado’s epic interview with one of his all-time favorite musicians, former ALL frontman Scott Reynolds, on the frontpage and man are my CTRL buttons tired! Check it out if you’re bored, and if you’re REALLY bored, you can also check out some of the other recently posted interview from all sorts of gangster ass motherfuckers, including The Matches, Mindless Self Indulgence and Mason Jennings, just to name a few. While you’re there why don’t you click on a few banners too, just to make us look good…I’m not sayin’, I’m just sayin’.

Fans of soul-master Al Green are in for a treat with his latest release, Lay It Down, produced by ?uestlove of The Roots. Al may not have the shrill range that he once did, but he can still bring it, rest assured. Give a listen to some tracks here, and while you’re at it, check out Synthesis’ Al Green interview from last fall.

Along with The Fall of Troy, Video Matt also had a chance to sit down with brothers Ed and Riley Breckenridge from the amazing Thrice this weekend in San Francisco. Check out his interview with the band above, then go out and by their new quadruple EP (yes as in 4) set The Alchemy Index in stores NOW!

Video Matt headed down to San Francisco this weekend to meet up with our friends The Fall of Troy and they discussed everything from what the band members miss while they’re on tour to the band’s burgeoning list of endorsements. Check it above then check our YouTube channel for past TFoT interviews and a shit ton more.

Seeing as we had a Hulk Hogan affair blog today, why not some good old ridiculous WWF Ric Flair? 1988 anyone?
