It’s time once again for the Top 3 Indies Artist Video Countdown for Mar. 3, 2018!
And starting off the countdown today are from Los Angeles and they are a “rock, punk, power pop, and alternative rock” outfit called, “Professor and the Madman.” Their bio says, “There’s a musical adventure coming from Orange County, California and the UK, orchestrated by Professor and the Madman.” Punk Globe writes, “Sean Elliott and Alfie Agnew of D.I. and Rat Scabies and Paul Gray of the Damned have gotten together to make one hell of an album. It’s full of different sounds for different songs and each musician brings in their specialty. As a fan of D.I. and the Damned, it’s hard to explain without gushing. It’s got some definite early garage psychedelia, some pop, some rock and some punk rock.”
I think it’s way cool. Of course, they have a Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/professorandthemadman/
Oh and there’s more to listen to at their Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/professorandthemadman
#3) Professor and the Madmen – Space Walrus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDfxjYC-fEo
At #2 on this week’s chart is the latest from Peter118 in the UK. I hear some music rag compared Peter118 to the Sex Pistols and now people are up in arms and either loving them or hating them.
Punx In Solidarity a Hardcore Punk Rock Blog writes: “Peter 118: Punk as F**k So a new punk band has been burning up social media and the center of some controversy. Now some may be wondering what makes a punk band controversial in 2018?” Well, give the track a listen and you might get the answer!
They have a Facebook page too: https://www.facebook.com/Peter118UK/
#2) Peter118 – Seven: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIe5uKhRz4I
At #1 this week is Starcrawler from Los Angeles! They are coming to Japan next week and all of their Tokyo shows are SOLD OUT! (See you on Tuesday!)

About Mike in Tokyo Rogers: Mike has been a professional music/TV/radio/anime-related program producer in Japan since the eighties. He began in the music business in 1977 as lead vocalist with the legendary Los Angeles Punk Band, “The Rotters” (Sit on My Face Stevie Nix.). As a university student, he was assistant to the legendary Rodney Bingenheimer (Rodney on the ROQ – KROQ Los Angeles from 1980 ~ 1981.) Mike was the first and only foreigner in Japanese history to become the General Manager of a major Japanese broadcasting station (TV Tokyo owned InterFM). Has produced a few smash hit programs (some real losers, too!) and several of Tokyo’s highest rated and most famous radio programs. A recent hit program was “The TV Show” (Set Program with “Ninja Slayer”) which, between April – Oct. 2015, garnered over 10 million viewers. He is currently producing and hosting “The Mike Rogers Show” every Sunday live on InterFM 89.7 in Tokyo and Radio Neo in Nagoya 79.5 and nationally broadcast on Radiko.jp (Internet radio). And his life’s dream is his just completed full-length motion picture, “Ghostroads – A Japanese Rock and Roll Ghost Story”which was released by a major Japanese motion picture company and in theaters all across Japan from Sept. 2017 ~ Feb. 2018.
