Three members of Canada’s Suicide Star dropped in to discuss their debut album, Isolation, and explain how the recording process worked for them. The entire album was recorded under COVID lockdown restrictions, with each member recording remotely from their home studios. The band talks about the writing process, the origin of the band name, the making of their video, and much more.
Join band members Aki Maris (bass), Brian Hamilton (drums), and Rob Barton (vocals) for a fun and informative conversation.

Hello everyone! My name is Scott Itter, but some know me as Dr. Music. I am a music journalist and photographer out of the Chicagoland area, and I have been in practice for over 20 years. I grew up in the 70’s with two big brothers that showed me all kinds of rock and roll. As I grew older I ventured out into different genres like jazz, funk, folk, and whatever else I could wrap my ears around. As I read every liner note and every Circus and Hit Parader like they were the Old and New Testament, I came to realize that I just love sound and appreciate all the people that create it.
I later became a stay-at-home dad and started honing my writing and photography skills to keep my mind from turning into mashed peas. My kids are now adults, my mind is only slightly mushy, and I am thrilled to have the honor of presenting my work to you!
