Caustic Truths is growing on me. They are all over the alterna-rock spectrum, and ask these strange marginal questions about particular radio stations and studios, stuff that only the hardcore fan can appreciate. In other words, the interviews are funny in a silly sort of way. My only complaint is the emphasis on labels, this band just got signed, how do you feel about being on Polycrap etc. It would be more interesting for Caustic Truths to move in the other direction and concentrate exclusively on trivia and ephemera. Bands interviewed include St. Johnny, Suckerpunch, Tilt, The Muffs, Quicksand and others.
