The music of Ohio
Jumping over to Ohio for some great tunes!
Before We Forget
They hail from Columbus, Ohio and have two releases, the most recent from September 2008. Listening to Before We Forget is like hitting random on your iTunes play list – they go from fast, heavy guitar riffs to melodic bass lines to auto-tuningĀ and distorting vocals like today’s hottest hip-hop artists. They don’t fit into one genre. There’s something for everyone. Before We Forget experiments with their sound, and they’re not afraid to take risks – which is what makes them so good.

The Story Changes
I’ve been a fan of this pop/punk duo [formerly trio] for a long time – I first saw them play when I was 16, five years ago. The Story Changes put a ton of energy and passion into their music. They come from the Dayton Ohio scene, but they stand among the others in their genre. Vocalist Mark McMillon has a unique voice that gives their songs an extra punch. And drummer Poppy brings intense energy to their live show, even from behind the kit. The songs are in your face, but catchy. It’s impossible not to jump around with McMillon at their live show. They’ve currently got four releases, the most recent a collaboration with Let Go, from Arizona.
