We recently had the wonderful opportunity to have Fred Mascherino and Matt Fleishman from The Color Fred come by Synthesis Weekly Managing Editor Ryan Prado’s apartment above the historic Senator Theatre here in Chico to play a couple songs acoustic and chat about life. Needless to say, they were fucking badass. Check out “Complaintor” above and then go to our YouTube channel to see them perform “If I Surrender” and see the interview sesh. And if that doesn’t get your Color Fred jones fulfilled, you can also download our sparkling new Macbeth Digital Magazine, which includes an in-depth interview with Fred himself, along with other exclusive interviews, style guides, music and videos from all the wonderful Macbeth sponsored bands. LEARN ABOUT IT

In partnership with the fine folks over at Loserkids, we here at Synthesis are proud to present the Macbeth Digital Magazine. Like your normal magazine, it features interviews and features starring the bands, artists, designers and great minds behind Macbeth Shoes including: Tom DeLonge of Angels & Airwaves, legendary poster artist Drew Struzan, Sherri DuPree of Eisley and many more. But since its digital, we are also able to incorporate some more interesting tidbits, such as video clips, mp3s and other assorted bells and whistles. The best part though, is the fact that you can download it for absolutely FREE right here. Don’t say we never did nothing for ya…
