Brooklyn rockers, Underwhelmed, are no strangers to the trials and tribulations the music industry has to offer.  When I met up with them at the WRHU studios last summer to talk about their new album and upcoming tour, I got an earful from all five guys about the musical path of destruction they were in the midst of embarking on.  With a set of inspired rock records, adoring fans across the country and a large batch of radio friendly tunes just waiting to be requested, these guys are destined for music industry stardom any minute now.  Learn more about Underwhelmed from their inception 12 years ago, to their over-(not under)-whelming experience on the New York rock scene and all of the success the future undoubtedly holds for them.  You’ll also hear what the guys have to say about the evolution of music as a whole, the impact college radio has on the industry and what boyish behavior goes on when the five of them are locked up in a hotel room together for 2 weeks (videos included).
