Rich & Turbo’s Heavy Half Hour

(S2E99) – Chad Ross (Quest For Fire, Comet Control, Deadly Snakes, C.Ross) On the latest episode of the Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S2E99),  we chat with someone I have been a huge fan of for a long time, even if I didn’t realize it, Chad Ross. Chad be involved in so many great projects, from the amazing Quest For Fire records, the three killer Comet Control albums, as part of the garage rock duo The Deadly Snakes, his solo material under the name Nordic Nomadic, and now, and one of the main topics of our discussion, his new record and second under the C.Ross moniker, Future Site Of C. Ross, brought to us by Echodelick Records. You need to check this one out, then come back to listen to the interview, as we cover so many fun topics.  

(S2E96) – Bygone (Chris Corry) You may know Chris Corry from the defunct but still killer Boston band Magic Circle. Now Chris is back with a new project, which is the topic of the latest episode of The Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S2E96), where we talk all things Bygone, his new band on Svart Records that just dropped their debut today. I grabbed the Bygone demo tape from 2022 and expected big things, but I did not expect a record that just landed in my top 20 for 2025 and that I gave a perfect score to in my review for Musipedia Of Metal. We talk about the band and the record and find a musical connection with Chris. Bands like Uriah Heep, BOC, UFO, and Kiss during The Elder period, come up (those bands are also what the new record sounds like…oh the guitars and synths just rule) and so much more. The new Bygone record should be the first thing you listen to today, then come back and listen to our really fun chat.

(S2E97) – Stone Nomads Boy, does Ripple Music know how to pick'em, and on this episode of the Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S2E97), we talk to another band that is the perfect example of this, as the killer heavy trio out of Houston, Texas, Stone Nomads, joins the show.  The band just released their third record, Empires of Stone, and it crushes. Jon and Jude talk to us about the new record, what it’s like having new drummer Ben in the band, playing live, and to Rich’s delight the conversation goes down a hardcore/punk rabbit hole. There are also some takes on Kyuss that may have people asking us questions, but you will have to listen to find out. Jon and Jude were awesome to spend so much time as we could have kept chatting for hours, so please come listen and check out Empires Of Stone ASAP. 

(S2E96) – Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin One of the things I love about doing this show is learning about the bands that we dig when we know nothing about them other than their music. On this episode of the Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S2E96), we talk to a band who we have loved for a while, but really knew little about, and one with an air of mystery behind them, San Diego’s Aunt Cynthia’s Cabin. This interview came about because the trio are re-releasing their 2020 classic, Misty Woman, for the first time in a long time on vinyl, via the amazing Black Throne Productions and we want to get the word out. This chat was so much fun as we laughed, we learned stuff, and really got to know the minds behind the killer desert psych rock the trio brings.  Brennan, Anthony, and Jeremy were so cool to give us so much time to just hang out talking ACC and other stuff.  Go preorder Misty Woman, track down the new Miramar Sessions EP, and then come hang with us. 

(S2E95) – Elk Witch It seems like a good chunk of bands we talk to are from Oregon, and for good reason, too. While not from Portland, the band on this episode of The Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S2E95), Elk Witch, is just as killer as their fellow Beaver State brethren, whose output thus far has been loved by the hosts of this show.  We had all three members of the trio on the show to discuss their career so far and what’s up next for the band, which we are very excited for. If you have not heard Elk Witch’s stuff before, waste no more time and go check them out, then please come back and listen to our interview.
