Brooklyn’s Finding Fiction are great and sound like a mashup of every guitar rock band I love and awesome. I was able to get on the phone with Mario Saturday and talk about writing music, geeking out over Apple tech, and rocking. These guys will be playing in my home town of Indianapolis this coming weekend – Sunday, February 15th at the Melody Inn, prefaced by a free in store at Luna Music during the day.

In this week’s episode, I get on the phone with ex-Brazil singer Jonothan Newby as he gets lost driving in Muncie, Indiana. Newby and I talk about and listen to three tracks from Brazil’s final post-mortem EP, “Ere I am J.H.”

Newby and I go way back, to his days in Catharsis and the Humdrum, and my days in Mara’Akate. He is a great guy and a talented musician. If you have been listening to the show, you might recall him sitting in on our interview with Waves on Waves a few months ago.

Check out the interview, and be sure to pick up the band’s discography from your favorite digital retailer!

In this weeks episode of RockitBomb, Brian speaks with Daniel Ingala of Plushgun. Based in Brooklyn, Plushgun is currently finishing up a full length record to be released in January of 2009. 

The project is pretty much just Daniel, although he tours with two other members. That doesn’t stop him from recording what I can only describe as incredibly heartfelt mini epics in each song.

Equal parts quirk, introspection, and rock, Plushgun is recommended for fans of Ben Gibbard’s The Postal Service, although Dan states tha he relates more to Atom and His Package.

Check out the episode to hear the single, “Just Impolite,” download the track, become mySpace friends, and watch the YouTube videos below. “Dancing In A Minefield“ is particularly worth a watch.
