I recently had a chance to interview Joe Michelizzi, singer for up and coming Maryland hardcore band Bad Habit. For a band that’s been together only a short time, their demo was pretty exciting (and even had a touch of the silly). So, here’s what Joe had to say: RnRnMN: How long have you been together?
