"Podium is a hardcore metal rock band from a small town in Ohio. From Brokensword, they are putting the rural area on the map with their hard-hitting sound, original music and huge fan following. In just three short years, this band has created a unique sound that is rocking crowds across Ohio and beyond."-Kimberly Gasuras, reporter/freelance writer, Bucyrus, OH

“ PODIUM is the real deal! Groove Laden Metal with Crushing Vocals! What the hell else do want! The Dude Abides... and loves this band! Uncle Dude's Rock Farm Buzz Radio ”

"Podium is one of those bands that after seeing and meeting you realize what a brotherhood is. Even to the point of acting exactly like a bunch of stubborn brothers. But after seeing them play live you feel the connection they have through the tightness of the riffs and rhythms of their songs as a whole. The stops and starts in the songs prove the point of their work as a unit. All in all this band is such a family of different personalities that it amazes me to see how similar they all are on stage as a band. Podium is definitely one of those blue collar bands from Ohio you do not want to miss". ~ RamJet
