PLENTY OF NOISE is an Emo / PopPunk podcast hosted by Nick Sauter of British-German rock band Cadet Carter. On his show, Nick brings you interviews with other musicians about what it's like to be part of a professional, touring rock band. Being a part of that scene himself, Nick takes a truly unique approach to his interviews. Consequently, his guests offer candid and sometimes brutally honest insights to life as a Rock musician in times when Rock music in general isn't necessarily the flavour of the month. Check it out!
It's the tenth episode of Plenty Of Noise! On this one, Nick talks to Chris Swinney who used to play guitar for PopPunk legends The Ataris. He quit that band ten years ago and went on to start one of the most popular podcasts of our scene called That One Time On Tour. Now, he is also back in the music game with his new band Fire Sale. And even though none of the band members would ever use that term, Fire Sale probably the closest thing to a Punk Rock super group you can get, with members from No Use For A Name, The Ataris, and Protest The Hero joining forces. Chris and Nick talk about the changes that the music business has undergone over the last decade, the blessings of not being a 19-year-old rookie in the business anymore, and the truly unique way in which Fire Sale write their songs. All of this and more on this episode! Enjoy.

Ep. 07 - Emo ain't dead
Nick's interview guest called in sick at the last minute, so this episode of Plenty Of Noise is a little different to what you're used to. We're listening to a lot of bands and artists you have never heard about before but you SHOULD HAVE. Additionally, we talk about the bad reputation of the word Emo in today's music world and how many people think all Emo and PopPunk bands basically sound the same when in fact they DO NOT.
