Joel Frieders

Joel Frieders woke up three salmon streams by merely emitting a low frequency squelch out of his thyroid. We hope he continues with such impressive feats of science, because he for sure needs help in the tattoos of fruits in precarious situations category. Rob Campobasso for Athlete of the Month. If cream of tartar isn't actually creamy, then why the hell am I so meteor showered? Is it any wonder. IS IT ANY WONDAAAA!

Me Like Bees - The Ides

Joel Frieders | June 24, 2013
Ever put in an album and within fifteen seconds of the first track you're already telling yourself "this band is going to be the death of me for the foreseeable future"? Ever put in an album every morning for two weeks straight and say the same thing over and...

Marten Cardona - Black

Joel Frieders | June 20, 2013
I don't hide my affinity for instrumental music. So often I fall in love with a band or producer and the second the vocals hit I'm pissed. WHY WOULD YOU RUIN YOUR AWESOME BY OPENING YOUR MOUTH HOLE? Instrumental music has kept me sane over the past fifteen or...

I Miss Fasil

Joel Frieders | May 10, 2013
The following is something I felt I had to write, because I'm still sad and pissed off about something. On May 10, 2003, I was in the middle of living with my soon-to-be-wife at her parent's house for a few weeks while our townhome was being built. It was...

World Premiere: Kleenex Girl Wonder - NUBS

Joel Frieders | March 25, 2013
Kleenex Girl Wonder fucking murder this video brosepfs. This is exactly what you should say to your video guy when he asks what you want in a music video. It doesn't have to mean anything to anyone, it just has to be fucking mindblowing. I...

Phox - Confetti

Joel Frieders | March 10, 2013
I have a pretty methodical way of listening to a shitton of new music. While it's fragmented/regimented and fucking OCD as hell, it has served me and SYFFAL pretty well over the past three years. I stopped playing favorites over two years ago, and I treat...

World Premiere: Carnage - Different/Dope Mutha

Joel Frieders | February 24, 2013
If you aren't aware of Carnage The Executioner, he looks and sounds rather intimidating.  Unfortunately, he's the squeeziest, most lovable rap character on the fucking planet, after our own Tim ALASKA Baker of course. Then again, Tim is prone...

P.O.S. - Weird Friends (We Don't Even Live Here)

Joel Frieders | February 20, 2013
This is disturbing. Awesomely disturbing. Just when you think you're about to stop obsessing over P.O.S.'s album We Don't Even Live Here, he drops the video for Weird Friends. What's in this here videya? Sparks, saxamaphones, doors,...

Emancipator - Dusk To Dawn

Joel Frieders | February 6, 2013
Fat Jon the Ample Soul Physician used some of the drums on the opening track Minor Cause on his song Talk To Me. 10 stars bro. Thanks for reading guys, that's a wrap brosepfs. Tee hee bros. Emancipator is fucking beastly in my opinion, as his...

Love Dad: Soundcloud vs Bandcamp - The Musician's Dilemma

Joel Frieders | December 19, 2012
SYFFAL receives a shitload of music on a daily basis. That isn't us bragging, it's just the nature of the yeast bro. What we've done over the past three years is try to insert some sense of fucking logic into the decisions you fuckers make when it comes to...

Born Gold - Little Sleepwalker

Joel Frieders | December 6, 2012
Every so often you hear something that kind of ruins everything else in your life. One minute you're a full fledged contributing member of society, the next minute you're a fucking zombie who can do nothing but think about what you heard and plan your new...
