Rich & Turbo’s Heavy Half Hour

(S3E7) – Gravehuffer

Sometimes I need to scratch that crossover thrash crust punk itch, and the way I do it is by listening to all of the killer stuff from the band on the latest episode of the Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S3E7), Gravehuffer! Ritchie Randall joins the show to discuss all things Gravehuffer, including the progress on the new record, taking the band out on the road, where all their killer music comes from, the band’s history, and so much more. Ritchie is great, and if you need a soundtrack to forgetting all your troubles and ripping it up, Gravehuffer is for you.  Check it out!

Florist (WITH A HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT!!!)

EXCLUSIVE!!!

The listeners of the show know how much I love the Tampa, FL band Florist, of which I regularly change their name to “Rich’s New Favorite Band, Florist”.  I love the latest record from the guys, Adrift, which was my number one album for 2025. Now, we hear what’s next for the band, as Frankie, Mike, Kevin, and Jer have a huge announcement as to what 2026 will bring for Florist, on this latest episode of Rich & Turbo’s Heavy Half Hour (S3E6).  I am so excited for the guys and for our listeners to hear what’s next for this killer band and these amazing humans. Please check out Florist and enjoy our chat.

(S3E5) – Kal-El (Vol. 2)

 

On this episode of The Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S3E5), we celebrate with Ståle and Bjørn from Kal-El their landing at the number one spot on the Doom Charts 2025 Top 100 list! Their amazing record, Astral Voyager Vol. 1, took that top spot and it could not be more deserving. They, and we, don’t stop there; on March 20th, 2026 Astral Voyager Vol. 2 drops, via Blues Funeral in the States and Majestic Mountain world wide. We discussed the new record and a whole lot more. It was an honor to have one of my favorite bands on the show the first time we chatted, and even more now that they came back.  The boys are on their way to the top of the charts for 2026 given how killer Volume 2 is, so go pre order it and then listen to our interview!

(S3E4) – Jack Harlon & The Dead Crows

On this episode of The Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S3E4), we have the honor of having Tim Coutts-Smith, the mastermind behind the amazing Australian band Jack Harlon & The Dead Crows, join us all the way from Melbourne. Tim and the band have a killer new record dropping on February 6th via Magnetic Eye titled Inexorable Opposites and it is their best work yet. We discuss the new record, the blurring line between Tim and Jack, being a band in Australia, why this record sounds different from their past work,  and how his work in the mental health field helped sculpt the new songs.  I can’t wait for people to hear the new record and for you all to check out our interview.

(S3E3) – Hot Ram

On this episode of The Rich & Turbo Heavy Half Hour (S3E3), we speak to Billy Konkel from the Atlanta heavy-as-hell power trio Hot Ram, who will be releasing their first new music in 5 years in the form of the EP Near Fall, which is dropping on Jan. 30th and is killer stuff. We talk about the new music as well as the band history, the meaning behind the new EP title, how Hot Ram’s sound has evolved, chat about wrestling a bit, and we even get our first Madonna story. Go pre-order Near Fall on glorious gold vinyl then come listen to our discussion.
