B-Sides: Ohmpark Inteviews Parade

Our top 50 album list is pretty much done and will be up by the end of the week, but while we're putting our finishing touches on that, I wanted to post some things we never got a chance to over the last year. Last summer, we went to Parade's practice space and filmed them playing a few songs and did an interview. Between getting a bad rip and losing the tape, we were unable to really do anything with it, but here is the 10 minute interview uncut for your viewing pleasure:

Better Know A Local Band: Passer By

We will be sitting down with Atlanta bands and chatting from time to time here at Ohmpark to help you learn about the Atlanta music scene. Our first band is noise-pop rockers Passer By. The band is a 5-piece featuring Alex Auxier on Vocals, Brandon Montgomery on guitar, Warren Gray on bass, Thad Johnston on guitar, and Tony Parise on drums. Passer By just recently dropped an EP called Tension and Release:



Here's two tracks to listen to off of the EP:

• Well Wishing
• Symptoms

Here's a video of them doing the theme from Legend Of Zelda at Home Park Fest last year:



We talked with Passer By about the Band, the EP, the Atlanta music scene, pornography, and bible passages. Enjoy:
