Rico Nasty is back—and she's got a lot to say. 🎙️

On this episode of AltPress In Session, Rico Nasty joins us to break down her explosive new album RX, opening up about reconnecting with the energy of her early music for this new era, and why the project feels like a full-circle moment.

We also dive into her friendship with Hayley Williams, her uniquely challenging creative relationship with Kenneth Blume (Kenny Beats)—where disagreement actually pushes the two to make stronger music—and what continues to inspire her as an artist.

Along the way, Rico delivers some of the wildest, funniest, and most unfiltered stories we've heard on the podcast. If you're a fan of Rico Nasty, alternative music, hip-hop, punk, or honest conversations with groundbreaking artists, this episode is for you.

On this episode, Alternative Press Editor-in-Chief Anna Zanes sits down with Taylor Momsen — frontwoman of The Pretty Reckless and former actress — to talk about the band's fifth album, Dear God.

Momsen breaks down why the record is the most personal and vulnerable she's ever written, how years of loss, growth, and life on the road found their way into the songs, and why the album feels like "a rebirth in a lot of ways."

She also talks about writing as the way she's always made sense of her life, the notebooks that have stayed with her through every chapter, and why, without songwriting, "I don't know who I would be as a person." Plus, she looks back on touring with AC/DC, shares what she's learned from nearly two decades in The Pretty Reckless, and hints at what's ahead for the Dear God headlining tour.

For AP's June cover story, Thursday's Geoff Rickly takes us through the band's fabled career, from the moment he decided to start a band at a New Brunswick basement show.

Julian Cashwan Pratt of Show Me The Body joins this week’s episode of AP: In Session to discuss the band’s new album, Alone Together, and the experiences that shaped it.

He also opens up about fatherhood, profound grief, and the perseverance required to keep creating through life’s toughest moments.

On the latest episode of Alternative Press: In Session, Sleeping With Sirens frontman Kellin Quinn joins us to discuss the band's latest chapter and the creation of their new album, An Ending in Itself. Quinn opens up about tapping with iconic producer Will Yip (Turnstile, Title Fight, Circa Survive), returning to the raw energy and emotional intensity that defined Sleeping With Sirens' early post-hardcore sound, while embracing the growth and perspective gained over more than a decade in music.

For Alternative Press’ May cover story, Lee joins Editor-in-Chief Anna Zanes for an expansive conversation about the path that brought her to this moment.

This week on In Session, singer/songwriter Violet Grohl sits down with EIC Anna Zanes to talk about her grungy, '90s alt-rock-drenched debut, Be Sweet to Me, the impact of David Lynch on her work, and how a childhood surrounded by music informed her creative path. She tells AP about seeing Billie Eilish perform at Camp Flog Gnaw, and how that moment was when it all clicked. Not only was the stage where she wanted to be, something in her gut told her she could get there, too.

On this episode of In Session, Boys Like Girls frontman Martin Johnson fills in the band's origin story, and his own — from growing up in Boston, working at Hot Topic and hustling to get their music heard, to the success of their breakout album, 2006's 'Boys Like Girls'. He opens up about sobriety, imposter syndrome, and how different life looks today, as the band celebrate 20 and 17 years of those albums on an expansive anniversary tour and look towards the next project.
