Team Soul Podcast


Mar 6, 2019

Welcome to episode 3 of Beats and Breakdowns, the bi-weekly music podcast from the Team Soul podcast network.

In this episode, we sit down with Hoya Roc, bass player for the New York hardcore band Madball.

Hoya has been a long time friend of ours and we appreciate him taking the time to sit down with us and discuss growing up in New York, the Dynamo Open Air festival in 1995, raising a family while being in a full time touring hardcore band, his continued love for the hardcore scene and more. 

Madball has been a driving force in the hardcore scene since 1988. The band was started by members of Agnostic Front as a side project to allow vocalist Roger Miret’s brother, 12-year-old Freddy to sing. The band has had its share of members including Vinnie Stigma, Matt Henderson, Will Shepler, and Mitts Daniels, but the constant has always been Freddy and Hoya. Despite a year-long break up in 2001, the band has continued on and continues to tour and release new music.

You can find more information, tour dates, merch and more by going to www.madballhc.com or their current label, Nuclear Blast Records at www.nuclearblast.com
