Stellar West has racked up a solid list of credits and acknowledgments over their relatively short career. AP said they were an “under 21” band to watch. They played Riot Fest. They made the finals to open up for Metallica at Soldier Field. And now, they’re playing live in a Mazda.

Discussed this week:

• The band plays a live version of their song “Regatta.”
• Their live shows involve costume changes.
• How hard is it to be punk rock in Naperville?
• Our mutual pal, Adam Krier of AM Taxi/Lucky Boys Confusion.
• The new EP, “Kermit the Fraud.”
