Chapter 1: Pipeman interviews Welsh metalcore band Bless Your Dead.

Rising from the ashes of When We Were Wolves, the band announce their arrival with the release of their debut single “Everyone’s A Target” — a no-holds-barred statement of intent from a band reborn heavier, sharper and more focused than ever.

They've just announced their debut show, performing at Noizzefest in Cardiff this April.

The track is due for release on 5th February and is the first single from a wave of new music lined up for 2026. Bless Your Dead are poised to make a serious impact, returning with a sound that is heavier, more refined and more confrontational than ever before. 

Formerly known as When We Were Wolves, the four-piece metalcore outfit have spent the past year tearing everything down and rebuilding from the ground up. The result is Bless Your Dead: a band delivering heavy riffs, crushing breakdowns and anthemic choruses, driven by a renewed sense of purpose and aggression. The band features vocalist Mitch Bock, guitarists Jay Coatsworth and Jack Adams, and drummer Kristian Eirsland “After taking a year away to write and record, it became apparent that the material we were working on was something completely different to what we’d done before — and that’s when Bless Your Dead was born,” explains vocalist Mitch Bock. “Everyone’s A Target” serves as the first taste of what’s to come. Though it was the final video shot from an upcoming run of three singles, the band felt it was the strongest introduction to their new sound. “Being a band that mixes heavy and melodic, we felt this track was the perfect place to start,” says Mitch. “It’s got riffs, a big chorus and a breakdown — everything that represents us right now. ”Lyrically, the track channels raw frustration and defiance. “It’s about reaching breaking point with forced loyalty and surface-level behavior, and finally snapping back."

With a wave of new music lined up for 2026, Bless Your Dead are poised to make a serious impact, returning with a sound that is heavier, more refined and more confrontational than ever before. 

Chapter 2: Pipeman interviews horror/industrial metal band Horror Scene. Our music blends aggressive metal with horror storytelling, characters, and cinematic themes. We’d love to come on your podcast to talk horror influences, creating dark characters through music, and the intersection of horror films and metal.

Welcome to Your Hell

Horror Scene emerged from the underground of Harrisburg, PA with one mission: to turn fear into music. Formed by a group of musicians obsessed with horror cinema, psychological thrillers, serial killers and the darker edges of industrial metal and rock, the band fuses theatrical storytelling with heavy, atmospheric soundscapes. Their songs explore themes of dread, hauntings, obsession, and the monsters—real or imagined—that live inside us all.

On stage, Horror Scene transforms the venue into their own chilling universe. Fog, distorted visuals, blood-red lights, and immersive sound design create a multisensory experience that blurs the line between concert and horror film. Their electrifying live shows have earned them a fiercely loyal fanbase drawn to the adrenaline, the spectacle, and the catharsis. Touring the US with such acts like Soulfly has helped the band have a better understanding of how to adjust to a crowd to give them the best entrainment experience the band has to offer.

Musically, Horror Scene pulls inspiration from industrial metal, gothic rock, modern metalcore, and classic horror film scores. The result is a sound that blends cinematic tension with explosive energy: pounding drums, razor-sharp guitars, haunting synths, and vocals that shift from melodic to monstrous. Working with Producer Daniel Malsch has helped the band develop their sound into something unique with a twist.

different parts of the day right now. I always love that. Yeah,

So let's welcome to the show. Jay. How are you?

14
00:01:05.480 --> 00:01:07.519

00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:08.959
what time is it for you guys over there?

16
00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:15.000
It's nine o'clock for me in the morning. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, wow. Yeah,

17
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:20.560
you're automatically the first interview of the day.

18
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:25.719
Amazing. That was a good one, man. Yeah.

19
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:29.040
So I want to start off with the story behind

20
00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:33.599
your new project, Bless You're Dead, which is really not

21
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:38.920
necessarily a new project. It's kind of a reinvented project.

22
00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:45.159
Yeah, yes, pretty much exactly that. So I met Mitch.

23
00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:52.680
I think it was twenty twenty twenty four late twenty

24
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:57.920
twenty four. That was when the band originally was, when

25
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:02.920
we were Wolves. They kind of they got back together

26
00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:07.040
and we're looking for another guitarist. I put myself forward.

27
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:12.360
I met Mitch. We jeled really well together when we

28
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:15.439
were writing stuff. All of our ideas kind of flowed

29
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:18.319
and connected and I would write a riff and then

30
00:02:18.360 --> 00:02:20.560
he would be like, oh, I can do something with this.

31
00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:25.919
So from then on we did that. We did a

32
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:32.960
few tours, not last year, year before amazing. It's kind

33
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:37.879
of my first experience doing a big tour and so

34
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:39.560
I kind of got a lot out of that and

35
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:45.159
really enjoyed myself. But we realized when we were writing

36
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:50.639
new music it wasn't hitting the same is what we were,

37
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:55.319
what the previous songs were like, it evolved into something

38
00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:59.520
else and with different lineup changes and stuff. So we

39
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.000
kind of took a step back and just thought, maybe

40
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:11.120
it's time we just rebranded, new name, new sound, new members.

41
00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:16.960
And yeah, we spent the whole of last year just

42
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:21.120
Mitch has got its own kind of makeshift studio and

43
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:25.719
we've we've just been in that studio for the last year,

44
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:31.199
just writing, getting everything we can't down. Even if we

45
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:33.400
don't use it. We're like, oh, we'll just take bits

46
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:35.800
from here, put it over here, put it in this song,

47
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:41.560
to filming music videos and just just making a plan

48
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:44.719
for this year really nice.

49
00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:48.120
And you know what I love about it is when

50
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:52.319
I first saw the promo for your new single the

51
00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:57.199
first and like, before I decide to do an interview,

52
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:01.599
I will listen to the music. Is like I don't

53
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:05.400
get press people that try to do interviews with artists

54
00:04:05.479 --> 00:04:11.039
that they don't like the music, Like I mean, especially

55
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:14.159
in metal, Okay, you have to have passion for the

56
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:17.040
music to promote it, like it's not like it's pop,

57
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:21.199
you know it, And an artist can tell too, like

58
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:23.959
if you have a passion for the music. So I

59
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:28.560
listen to your debut single, Everyone's a Target, which I

60
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:33.240
feel that's like so appropriate for today, and you know

61
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:39.000
it was a badass song. Then I read the description

62
00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:42.319
in the press release, like I listen to this, which

63
00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:44.439
is what I do. I don't want to be tainted.

64
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:47.319
I want to just listen to the music and then

65
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:52.000
read the press release and I'm like, oh, I think

66
00:04:52.079 --> 00:04:57.800
I interviewed when we were Wolves at a festival, and like,

67
00:04:58.279 --> 00:05:01.560
what was cool about that? Is is you know, when

68
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:06.279
you rebrand, like you're doing the main reason you rebrand

69
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:10.839
is because you are kind of going in a different direction,

70
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:15.079
and you don't not that you do this purposely, but

71
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:20.839
you don't necessarily want people to only ever associate you

72
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:29.040
with your beginnings. You know. It's like if Black Sabbath

73
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:32.759
never changed their name from Earth to Black Sabbath, would

74
00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:36.680
we have ever known about them? We will never probably known.

75
00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:40.399
That was something as well. When we were playing shows,

76
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:44.519
we had a lot of the older Wolves fans attend

77
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:47.360
the shows, and they would come up to us being like, Oh,

78
00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:49.399
be really sick if you could if you went and

79
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:54.040
played these old songs. And we were just like, when

80
00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:59.079
we have no intentions of plans to play the old stuff. Right,

81
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:04.920
sucked in a couple of old songs for the older fans,

82
00:06:05.240 --> 00:06:09.600
but going forward we did we kind of wanted to

83
00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:12.680
kind of get get those out of the set with

84
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:16.199
and just played the newer music. And I think that

85
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:19.800
was one of the things that made us kind of

86
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:22.759
realized it's time for something new.

87
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:27.399
I mean, it makes total sense to me. Some people, like,

88
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:30.720
you know, sometimes the old school fans may not like

89
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.759
it because that's kind of way it is, but they

90
00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:37.680
they'll come back. It's just you know, when you're young

91
00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:41.439
and like kind of gatekeeping kind yeah, you know. It's

92
00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:44.720
like it's like for me when Metallica, you know, like

93
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.959
I I was going to all our first shows. Ever,

94
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:49.759
so when Metallica came out with the Black album, me

95
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:52.800
and my friends were like, fuck them, posers, We're never

96
00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:55.519
listening to them again. There's still one of my favorite bands,

97
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:58.639
but you know, oh yeah, yeah, It's like, but you

98
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:01.600
have to rebrand some some times because like you said,

99
00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:03.639
like people are going to want to hear old stuff,

100
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:07.240
and if you are going by the old name, you're

101
00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:10.160
kind of obligated to play that old stuff, you know,

102
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:13.120
like just like bands have been around for forty years

103
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:15.240
or songs they just don't want to play, but they

104
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:18.959
have to, you know. Yeah, but by.

105
00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:24.079
Brand people you said with Metallica, like you're going to

106
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:28.279
hear in the Sanba. Like as much as people don't

107
00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:32.519
like the big like core fans are kind of feed

108
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:35.920
up with people staying it's the best metallic song, Metallica

109
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:39.360
will play that song live like they have to. Yeah,

110
00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:40.639
they have yeah, they have to.

111
00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:46.199
Yeah, Like me, I'd rather than like slip in something

112
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.199
like metal Militia and take that out.

113
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.519
They played. They played two days at Donard Festival a

114
00:07:53.560 --> 00:07:54.199
couple of years ago.

115
00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:58.000
I was there covering that, yeah, and.

116
00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:00.759
I remember they played a ryot and I was like,

117
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:04.959
oh my god, I never thought I would ever hear

118
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:09.560
them play this. Yeah. I was so happy with like

119
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:12.319
the split sets because I I've just heard a bunch

120
00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:15.199
of Metallica and I've always wanted to hear live, and

121
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:18.439
then I've got all the songs I've heard them play

122
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:21.360
like before. But I was like, I'm finding this. This

123
00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:21.759
is great.

124
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:24.639
That is what's cool about the two day thing that

125
00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:28.120
they've been doing that for several years now, because it's

126
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:34.360
like it's almost like each day is themed to a

127
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:40.039
certain Metallica you know, with others sprinkled in, not one

128
00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:43.080
hundred percent, but like kind of like one day is

129
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:46.279
for the old schoolers and the other days kind of

130
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:49.639
for the new scores, you know, type of thing that's complete.

131
00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:53.559
That's great, Like did you hear what happened that download

132
00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:56.799
that year? Okay, so check this out?

133
00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:01.600
Was it with the like the traffic and the.

134
00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:04.120
No the noise Okay?

135
00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:06.639
Yeah, that was that was what was just about to say.

136
00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:09.320
Apparently it was just so loud that everyone could hear

137
00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:12.159
it from like miles and miles and miles out.

138
00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:18.240
There were complaints like fifteen miles away, like see great

139
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:21.799
the old school metal head like me, I'm like that's

140
00:09:21.879 --> 00:09:27.159
fucking cool man, And like there were people fifteen miles

141
00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:29.200
away that could hear it as if they were there,

142
00:09:29.360 --> 00:09:35.600
because basically, Metallica design this sound system where no matter

143
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:40.279
where you are at music festival, it's you feel like

144
00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:42.399
you're at the front as far as sound does.

145
00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:48.000
Yeah, it's great, It's it's incredible, right. I think that

146
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:51.240
if I didn't have Metallica, I would not be doing this.

147
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:55.840
Yeah see that? See that, and I'm browing me neither

148
00:09:56.799 --> 00:09:59.039
it would neither be neither of us would be here.

149
00:09:59.480 --> 00:09:59.679
You know.

150
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:01.600
I owe a lot of that band.

151
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:06.639
And that's what's cool because you know, I look at

152
00:10:06.639 --> 00:10:11.559
metal today and it definitely has evolved. And you know,

153
00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:15.600
it's like it's interesting because you take bands like Metallica

154
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:20.799
and their inspirations, a lot of them aren't even metal,

155
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:24.000
you know, because there was no such thing. You know,

156
00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:26.879
just like while I was a kid, you know, I

157
00:10:26.960 --> 00:10:30.320
was still my brother's albums. Who's eleven years older than me,

158
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:35.519
and they're stuff like the Rascals and the Association, you know,

159
00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:40.120
because there wasn't like like I think about it now too.

160
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:43.799
I'm like, man, Helter Skelter definitely was a heavy metal song,

161
00:10:45.639 --> 00:10:45.840
you know.

162
00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:51.279
Yeah. I was reading Ossie's first book and he was

163
00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:54.320
talking about his influences and stuff, and I just thought, wow, yeah,

164
00:10:54.519 --> 00:11:00.240
like the Beatles would be your influence because right, what,

165
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:05.360
there was no metal before before? You like, so hearing

166
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:07.799
what other like a lot of the older bands is

167
00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:10.440
main influence as well. It was kind it is interesting

168
00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:12.960
compared exact nowadays.

169
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:17.360
Yeah, Like, could you imagine having stuff like your music

170
00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:22.519
now back in the sixties, I think people well lost

171
00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:23.120
her mind.

172
00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:29.039
Yeah, we literally people running at us and with like

173
00:11:29.279 --> 00:11:34.600
pitchforks and Satan worshipers and stuff. Yeah, totally.

174
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:39.399
But like you know, they like to say that metal died.

175
00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:43.240
I go to these festivals like Download and Hellfest and

176
00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:48.440
all the DWP festivals here in the States, and I'm like, yeah, no,

177
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:51.159
I don't think so. It's bigger and better than ever.

178
00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:58.000
It's because of bands like Metallica that created something new. Yeah,

179
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:02.799
you know, you wouldn't have thought of playing music like

180
00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:06.720
it is today in metal back then, because you know,

181
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:10.399
it just wouldn't have made sense in your head even

182
00:12:10.440 --> 00:12:15.000
though it did, you know, like even even take I

183
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:19.440
was just watching something recently and Henry Rowlins was talking

184
00:12:19.480 --> 00:12:25.039
about why he stopped doing music, and his thing was like, basically,

185
00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:28.960
once I couldn't write songs anymore, I'm not gonna just

186
00:12:29.159 --> 00:12:33.720
play and be like a legacy band or my own

187
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.200
tribute band. Like he's like, it's cool if other bands

188
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:40.159
do that, like they go and you know, they just

189
00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:43.919
play their you know, their hits. He's like, that's just

190
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:48.000
not me. I gotta play new music. So that brings

191
00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:52.200
us right back around to what you guys are feeling.

192
00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:55.679
You have new music, you want to play that new music.

193
00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:59.159
That's what you want representing you, And I gotta tell

194
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:01.679
you it's freaking badass.

195
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:07.679
Yeah, thank you. Yeah. We are really really proud with

196
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:14.759
how this has gone down. Really, it's like like we

197
00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:17.559
really wanted a song to come out and just really

198
00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:21.399
like just kind of like hit you in the face.

199
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:24.639
And with the first line of the song is I'm

200
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:28.799
coming out swinging. We That's what we really wanted to

201
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:32.600
do is just kind of be like this is us,

202
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:34.840
this is our sound.

203
00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:39.480
And what would you and what would you say as

204
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:43.399
the artist? Is the difference between your sound now and

205
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:45.000
the sound before.

206
00:13:47.559 --> 00:13:54.000
I'd say, now we're a little bit more. We like

207
00:13:55.039 --> 00:13:57.559
we're just trying to think of the word for this. Actually,

208
00:13:57.679 --> 00:13:59.360
it's kind of it's kind of hard to like talk

209
00:13:59.399 --> 00:14:07.799
about it can like because we were new, were just

210
00:14:08.039 --> 00:14:11.159
there was nothing tied to us, so we could really

211
00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:16.919
just throw out this is that, this is our sound.

212
00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:21.320
It's that it's a real blend of heavy, down tuned

213
00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:28.360
music with a nice strong modern take. There's a lot

214
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:33.679
of our influences. It's kind of all we do have

215
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:37.559
a lot of old school influences. I'm a big lamb

216
00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:41.080
of good guy, so I'll try and get in those

217
00:14:41.159 --> 00:14:47.519
really really twiddly fiddly stuff. Our other guitarist Jack, he's

218
00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:53.080
really into his death metal. So it's the whole song

219
00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:54.960
has like a blend of genres.

220
00:14:55.440 --> 00:14:57.679
See I love that about nowadays.

221
00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:02.000
Yeah, because there's a certain mellow in everyone is a

222
00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:08.159
target which has that death metal take to it where

223
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:13.799
I'm like a real like metal coorter guy, like my

224
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:16.200
five seven eight riffs, that's my kind of favorite thing

225
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.720
to play. We all just kind of blend it all

226
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:23.639
into one kind of genre, and that's kind of what

227
00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:29.320
we kind of birth really nice. Yeah, it's it's uh,

228
00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:31.240
it's good.

229
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:36.639
I love that today though, because like you know, back

230
00:15:36.679 --> 00:15:40.639
in the eighties, you know, you were either this or

231
00:15:40.679 --> 00:15:44.720
you're that, and you couldn't like both, you know, type

232
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:45.039
of thing.

233
00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:50.440
You know, that's like we always have when we write music,

234
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:56.000
is we write a verse that is so heavy, and

235
00:15:56.039 --> 00:16:01.600
then we'll come into the chorus with something like beautifully melodic,

236
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:06.480
like I'm a bit a big kill switch engage fan,

237
00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:09.559
me and Mitch, so we really lean in on those

238
00:16:09.720 --> 00:16:16.799
melodic choruses and He'll write this gorgeous local melody and

239
00:16:16.879 --> 00:16:21.080
I'll try and compliment that with a really nice kind

240
00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:28.639
of fiddley lead line over the chorus. And we seem

241
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:32.120
to me and Mitch have like a nice like routine

242
00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:34.639
of we know the chorus is going to be really good,

243
00:16:35.840 --> 00:16:40.120
Like the chorus will always like have that real anthemic

244
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:43.960
kind of sound that we want everyone to sing along to.

245
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:49.120
And that that you know what that is what makes

246
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:52.679
great music, even if it doesn't matter how heavy you are,

247
00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:55.919
there has to be something that gets you, like where

248
00:16:56.080 --> 00:17:00.639
it's stuck in your head. Yeah, and that that's the point,

249
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:05.480
and you know, the blending of genres to me, I

250
00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:08.000
love that today also because I find that a lot

251
00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:14.400
of bands, especially like in metalcore, use like this formula, right,

252
00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:18.480
Like there's a formula for making metal music. And you

253
00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:22.119
go back to the days of Metallica's beginning in the

254
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:25.920
Big Four. They were thrash metal, but nobody set out

255
00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:28.960
to be thrash metal, so they didn't really sound the same,

256
00:17:29.319 --> 00:17:32.359
you know, like like but now it's like you have

257
00:17:32.440 --> 00:17:35.200
these bands, if they're all on the same page, they

258
00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:38.640
all sound the same, you know, Whereas if you bring

259
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:41.799
in other influences, that's what makes you stand out and

260
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:45.559
be unique and create the new music. You know. Like

261
00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:48.319
you take a band like Slayer, two of the band

262
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:51.799
members were metal heads, two were punkers, and that's how

263
00:17:51.799 --> 00:17:55.640
you created the crossover scene before that, you know, Like

264
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:58.079
I loved punk. I couldn't go to punk shows. I

265
00:17:58.079 --> 00:17:59.880
would have gotten my ass beat because I was along,

266
00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:02.519
you know.

267
00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:07.880
Yeah, it's the same with like metal now, like you've

268
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:11.000
got like the hardcore scene where I've gone to some

269
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:13.240
of those shows and I'm just like I'm going to

270
00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:15.920
stand at the back because I feel safe.

271
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:16.160
At the back.

272
00:18:19.960 --> 00:18:25.759
Yeah, it's yeah, like we just love blending just all

273
00:18:25.759 --> 00:18:28.920
of these different genres that I've I like to write,

274
00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:32.680
write like a nice, dirty, mean breakdown in the song.

275
00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:38.000
So I kind of when when we're when we're writing,

276
00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:42.119
we'll all throw our ideas together and I'm just like,

277
00:18:42.519 --> 00:18:46.240
let's just try this a second, and we'll all look

278
00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:49.920
at each other and be like, yeah, that's that's that's

279
00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:50.519
that's it.

280
00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:54.279
And that's where it should be too, because like, okay,

281
00:18:54.359 --> 00:18:58.839
so I used to play guitar. I sucked. But you

282
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:01.440
know in the beginning, my dad would you say to

283
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:03.119
me and hear me, He's like, oh, you should give

284
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:05.839
that up. You suck. And what it was really just

285
00:19:05.960 --> 00:19:09.240
doing was I wasn't playing anything. I was just experimenting.

286
00:19:09.279 --> 00:19:12.279
I wanted to see what sounds I could make. And

287
00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:16.000
I think that's part of being an artist, is like experimenting,

288
00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:20.720
because otherwise you're just regurgitating what everybody else has already done.

289
00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:24.759
So you gotta try to do things differently. Again, going

290
00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:28.039
back to the Sabbath model, would we have metal today

291
00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:31.680
had Tony Iomi not had to change the way he

292
00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:34.880
played because of his accident, you know.

293
00:19:35.000 --> 00:19:40.079
Yeah, yeah, yeah, like, yeah, I think whatever happened. One

294
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:43.279
of the bands that do it beautifully is Bring to

295
00:19:43.319 --> 00:19:43.839
the Horizon.

296
00:19:44.640 --> 00:19:49.240
Oh yeah, they're my top five by the way. Yeah.

297
00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:55.200
Yeah. I think if you're a modern musician now and

298
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:58.359
you're in a band and you've just started, I think

299
00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:00.400
everyone would probably say bring me the as in a

300
00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:05.039
kind of one of their main influences. Like every album

301
00:20:05.240 --> 00:20:10.680
they just smash it. Just they're so smart at what

302
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:11.119
they do.

303
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:15.000
And well I and I thought of them with your

304
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:20.039
story because basically they didn't rebrand, but they rebranded how

305
00:20:20.039 --> 00:20:23.759
they were playing music, and yeah, people got pissed off.

306
00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:28.480
And Ali said in an interview, yeah, Allie said the

307
00:20:28.519 --> 00:20:32.359
interview though, he's like, wow, I want to play write

308
00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:35.359
the same song over and over again and like that.

309
00:20:35.359 --> 00:20:39.200
That's so insightful of what an how an artist would feel.

310
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:46.599
Hm, you know, like just every album they've released, it's

311
00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:54.839
just it's something different, but it's incredible. Yeah. Yeah, I'd

312
00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:57.559
love to just go into the mind of mind of

313
00:20:57.599 --> 00:21:00.759
that band and just how do you do this right?

314
00:21:02.880 --> 00:21:05.319
And I don't fly on the wall in the studio.

315
00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:08.160
It's like it's going to just take notice a second.

316
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:11.519
And I consider myself lucky because I came in late

317
00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:14.119
to game for Bring Me to Rise. And Okay, so

318
00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:17.039
you know, because I do coverage at music festivals all

319
00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:19.839
over the US, UK and Europe, and I remember they

320
00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:21.759
were playing a festival one year. I think it was

321
00:21:21.799 --> 00:21:25.839
like fifteen years ago. It was right when That's the

322
00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:30.319
Spirit came out. Okay, so I had never heard their

323
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:36.839
stuff before, weirdly enough, and because of that, I feel

324
00:21:36.839 --> 00:21:40.839
like I love all their music and all their transformations.

325
00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:44.279
Whereas if I had originally just been one of those

326
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:49.079
original Death Corps fans of Bring Me, I would prob

327
00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:51.799
maybe I would think the same way as they do. Like,

328
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:54.680
but you know, as an artist, you have to grow,

329
00:21:54.799 --> 00:21:58.079
you have to change, you have to you know, as

330
00:21:58.119 --> 00:22:01.319
you're game better. You know, when you start off a

331
00:22:01.359 --> 00:22:03.960
lot of times with a band when you're a teenager,

332
00:22:05.119 --> 00:22:08.720
you don't really know what you're doing, and so you

333
00:22:08.839 --> 00:22:11.200
learn the craft and you want to get better and

334
00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:14.799
expand you don't want to stay a teenager learning how

335
00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:15.880
to play your instrument.

336
00:22:16.599 --> 00:22:20.519
M Yeah, yeah, I just make weird noises. If I'm honest,

337
00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:26.000
I love it. There's really like dissonant notes and like

338
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:28.559
how can I make something sound really horrible and just

339
00:22:28.599 --> 00:22:30.039
like unattractive?

340
00:22:31.359 --> 00:22:31.880
I love it?

341
00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:36.480
So yeah, yeah, we we do experiment quite a lot

342
00:22:36.519 --> 00:22:38.319
with some weird, weird sounds and stuff.

343
00:22:39.480 --> 00:22:42.839
Yeah. So you know, it's funny because that goes back

344
00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:44.759
to what I was saying. What when my dad was

345
00:22:44.759 --> 00:22:47.039
saying that I sucking all but see me? To me,

346
00:22:47.200 --> 00:22:50.680
that's part of the what I was talking about. Being

347
00:22:50.720 --> 00:22:53.839
an artist. You want, you want to just do whatever

348
00:22:53.960 --> 00:22:56.119
the fuck you want to see what you can come

349
00:22:56.200 --> 00:22:59.440
up with, you know, And.

350
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:01.519
It's just taking about what you like.

351
00:23:02.079 --> 00:23:05.000
It's about what you like. If you make the music

352
00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:09.960
you like, you'll you'll get your people that like your music.

353
00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:12.519
You know, if you try to fake it. If you

354
00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:15.920
try to fake it, you won't get anybody. You can't

355
00:23:16.079 --> 00:23:18.880
be you can't appease other people, appease yourself, and then

356
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:21.839
you'll you'll gather your tribe for sure.

357
00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:23.319
Yeah.

358
00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:28.240
So what's uh, what's next for twenty twenty six for

359
00:23:28.319 --> 00:23:31.000
you guys?

360
00:23:31.000 --> 00:23:35.079
New music? Lots of new music. We're playing our first

361
00:23:35.079 --> 00:23:38.400
show in April Noise Fest.

362
00:23:39.640 --> 00:23:41.880
Yeah, I saw that. I have to check that out.

363
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:48.200
Yeah, it's run by an incredible bunch of people. It's

364
00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:51.640
just full of fantastic talent as well, So we are

365
00:23:51.759 --> 00:23:56.119
really humbled to be beyond the bill, considering that we

366
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:59.400
didn't actually have a song out when they announced us

367
00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:02.440
for the festival. We started dropping the teasers for the

368
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:08.400
track when we were getting like announced for the festival,

369
00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:14.839
so we're really hoping that when we play, people would

370
00:24:14.839 --> 00:24:17.160
have heard of the track and wanted to check us out,

371
00:24:17.319 --> 00:24:24.000
like here some more stufferboils nice. So yeah, it's it's exciting.

372
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:26.440
We've got a few other bits lined up.

373
00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:30.640
We need to get your blood We need to get

374
00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:31.799
your blood Stock.

375
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:36.640
To play blood Stock. Yes, I'd love to play blood Stock.

376
00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:39.880
Your band would fit perfectly there too.

377
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:44.480
Yeah, it's a strong line up this year. Yeah, yeah,

378
00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:48.400
it's it's it's We've got a lot of stuff planned it.

379
00:24:48.400 --> 00:24:51.680
It's pretty exciting. We've we've spent a whole of last

380
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:58.000
year planning for this year, so now everything is in

381
00:24:58.160 --> 00:25:02.599
like right, all gears go, go go, that's like this,

382
00:25:05.000 --> 00:25:07.839
so yeah, we've all well what's great about us as

383
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:12.519
well is we've all got our own areas of work

384
00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:16.519
that we like to do in the band. So I'm

385
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:20.759
off sorting out like potential merchandise and stuff. Like that,

386
00:25:21.839 --> 00:25:27.920
making sure everything's like up to date, so everything is coming.

387
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:31.720
And with the reception we've had on this first single,

388
00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:37.160
it's really like made all of us really like, Okay, yeah,

389
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:42.119
let's do this now, like let's really put everything into

390
00:25:42.480 --> 00:25:42.720
we do.

391
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:47.000
I love it. Tell everybody how they can reach out

392
00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:51.519
to you guys on socials, check out new music and

393
00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:54.119
and speaking of merch, how they can buy your merch

394
00:25:54.119 --> 00:25:56.000
because they can't listen to my show and let's say

395
00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:56.599
buy your merch.

396
00:25:57.480 --> 00:26:00.880
Oh yeah, that'd be great. Yeah, we are on all

397
00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:05.079
streaming platforms, so like Apple Music, Spot, Fine, Amazon, it's

398
00:26:05.200 --> 00:26:10.279
just blessed your dad again with all the socials, it's

399
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:15.880
blessed your dead on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok because yep, we're cool.

400
00:26:16.039 --> 00:26:17.000
We do TikTok.

401
00:26:18.119 --> 00:26:21.920
Do you have an embarrassing TikTok one that you're embarrassed about?

402
00:26:24.359 --> 00:26:28.079
People do? So you do if you don't.

403
00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:34.079
Mitch did make an incredible TikTok on his personal account

404
00:26:34.119 --> 00:26:40.160
of him buttering his crumpet, and I think that sparked

405
00:26:40.200 --> 00:26:45.640
a few weird ideas for him to implement on the band. TikTok.

406
00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:49.279
Well, there you go. That's what everybody's got to follow

407
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:51.440
you on TikTok that to look forward.

408
00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:54.559
I'm sure we'll do a funny dance video at some point,

409
00:26:55.279 --> 00:27:01.119
so everyone loves those, right right, Yeah, we've are. Yeah,

Thank you very much for this. It's been great.

a nicety assist on Seal Now at the Incarceration dot Com.

437
00:28:53.319 --> 00:28:55.480
This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures pipe

438
00:28:55.480 --> 00:28:57.880
Man W four C by Radio. When I'm here with

439
00:28:57.960 --> 00:29:01.359
our next guest. It has some badass music and so

440
00:29:01.559 --> 00:29:04.519
let's welcome to show horror scene.

441
00:29:05.279 --> 00:29:07.599
Hey, how's it going. Thanks for having me on, appreciate it.

442
00:29:07.920 --> 00:29:13.319
Hey, great to have you. And so what I love

443
00:29:13.440 --> 00:29:17.599
about your music is not only the appearance. Wise, I

444
00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:21.960
do love, like you know, people that go way above

445
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:24.880
to call a duty. When it comes to creativity. Anybody

446
00:29:24.880 --> 00:29:28.400
can just get up there and just play and stand still,

447
00:29:29.480 --> 00:29:34.119
but it takes a whole nother level to give a performance,

448
00:29:34.119 --> 00:29:37.240
because that's what a live show is, a performance. Oh sure,

449
00:29:38.319 --> 00:29:42.960
you know, but I also love even more that your music.

450
00:29:43.599 --> 00:29:46.960
I talk about this all time too. It blends genres. Like,

451
00:29:47.599 --> 00:29:52.400
to me, the best bands nowadays, specially in the metal area,

452
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:56.359
is when they blend all types of metal genres or

453
00:29:56.359 --> 00:30:01.119
other genres, because if you're only very specific, like they

454
00:30:01.119 --> 00:30:05.599
have these genres, they are so stupidly specific that it's

455
00:30:05.880 --> 00:30:08.519
you know, the music is just formulas at that point,

456
00:30:08.599 --> 00:30:12.680
there's like no uniqueness about it. So it does you know.

457
00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:14.880
They used to say when in the eighties that it

458
00:30:14.960 --> 00:30:19.079
all sounded the same, but it didn't. Now the people

459
00:30:19.119 --> 00:30:21.519
I argued with about that, I'm like, yeah, you're right,

460
00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:23.960
it does kind of sound at the same, you know,

461
00:30:24.319 --> 00:30:27.640
the ones now not then. But then bands like you

462
00:30:27.720 --> 00:30:31.640
don't because you are bringing other influences in and it's

463
00:30:31.720 --> 00:30:36.079
not just oh, we can only do this type of metal,

464
00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:39.599
you know, right, So tell us a little bit about

465
00:30:39.680 --> 00:30:42.480
your creative process and how things work with the band

466
00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:46.880
on blending these genres and bringing everything together to make

467
00:30:47.079 --> 00:30:47.759
horror scene.

468
00:30:50.079 --> 00:30:54.880
I mean, our process is pretty easy for the most part.

469
00:30:55.119 --> 00:30:56.839
Like some of people come come over with a guitar

470
00:30:56.920 --> 00:31:00.359
riff and everybody will just kind of work off for that,

471
00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:03.640
and sometimes like, well, you know, we'll come with a chorus,

472
00:31:03.680 --> 00:31:07.319
the pre chorus, get the verse down and then sometimes

473
00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:10.119
while we're putting things together, like, hey, what we played

474
00:31:10.119 --> 00:31:11.799
here in the verse is cool, but it doesn't really

475
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:13.400
fit this. Let's pull that out, but we can use

476
00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:17.400
that somewhere else. And that's pretty much how that all works. Like,

477
00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:19.279
you know, we'll just blend it all together, and then

478
00:31:19.400 --> 00:31:22.519
you know, using the keys and synth and that techno

479
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:25.440
and and and dance stuff that we throw in there.

480
00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:28.440
It's just it's just fun, like messing everything together.

481
00:31:29.640 --> 00:31:33.319
I like the keyword fun because if you're a musician

482
00:31:33.359 --> 00:31:36.400
and you're not having fun, this is the wrong industry

483
00:31:36.440 --> 00:31:39.039
because a lot of it is a bunch of shit.

484
00:31:39.599 --> 00:31:43.440
So if you're not having fun in the creative process, right,

485
00:31:43.839 --> 00:31:48.880
where are you having fun? Absolutely love that. Uh what

486
00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:51.480
was that moment in time that you thought to yourself,

487
00:31:52.279 --> 00:31:54.759
this is what I need to do. Like what was

488
00:31:54.799 --> 00:31:57.759
that one thing that hooked you in when you were young?

489
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:03.279
I just music in general, you know, growing up my

490
00:32:03.319 --> 00:32:08.440
parents listening to you know, Billy joel and and Elton John,

491
00:32:08.759 --> 00:32:11.279
you know, bands like that, and like I was always

492
00:32:11.359 --> 00:32:16.440
fascinated with how music just came together. So you know,

493
00:32:16.519 --> 00:32:19.039
as a young young kid, I started up playing violin.

494
00:32:19.079 --> 00:32:21.079
Then I went to trombone, and then I turned to

495
00:32:21.160 --> 00:32:23.160
drums and I haven't moved back since. So yeah, I mean,

496
00:32:23.200 --> 00:32:26.880
for me, I mean that that aha moment, if you will.

497
00:32:26.960 --> 00:32:29.039
I was started at a very very young age. It's

498
00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:32.039
just the whole creative process behind it is what really

499
00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:33.000
lashed me on to it.

500
00:32:33.720 --> 00:32:37.000
I love hearing that you went from trombone to drums.

501
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:39.359
And I say that because you know, like I was

502
00:32:39.359 --> 00:32:42.480
in school, band, school, orchestra. I played drums for ten years.

503
00:32:42.519 --> 00:32:45.000
So I was in the percussion of the orchestra and

504
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:47.960
I played everything in percussion, and then I used to

505
00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:51.400
look over at the other kids that were playing trumpet

506
00:32:51.480 --> 00:32:55.680
and trombone. I'm like, I might want to try that.

507
00:32:55.680 --> 00:32:59.119
That looks pretty cool. So so it's kind of cool

508
00:32:59.240 --> 00:33:00.680
that you went the other way.

509
00:33:01.160 --> 00:33:06.319
Yeah, yeah, I mean it's oddly enough though, when I

510
00:33:06.359 --> 00:33:09.599
went to trombone, I forget what grade that was, I

511
00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:12.119
want to say sixth or seventh grade, and we were

512
00:33:12.119 --> 00:33:15.079
allowed to like pick an instrument. I initially wanted to

513
00:33:15.079 --> 00:33:17.119
start out on drums with the music teacher that we

514
00:33:17.160 --> 00:33:19.279
had at the times, like I have too many drummers here,

515
00:33:19.279 --> 00:33:21.160
why don't you try trombone? So it wasn't even like

516
00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:22.000
anything I even.

517
00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:22.519
Wanted to do.

518
00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:29.839
Sometimes that's how you know you find your your path though, right.

519
00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:31.519
Oh, for sure, I will tell you.

520
00:33:31.559 --> 00:33:33.960
I will say one thing though, start, you know, going

521
00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:37.119
to a brass instrument like the trombone, like my favorite,

522
00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:41.039
uh cleft out of base and treble's bass. I love bass, cleft,

523
00:33:41.680 --> 00:33:44.119
all fine stuff, yeah, nice.

524
00:33:44.799 --> 00:33:47.519
And you know, it's funny because I think I've changed

525
00:33:47.559 --> 00:33:49.759
throughout the years because I've always been like a very

526
00:33:50.079 --> 00:33:52.440
like when i'd listen to music younger, I would like

527
00:33:52.559 --> 00:33:55.839
put the treble up to the max, and I didn't

528
00:33:55.839 --> 00:33:59.200
care as much about the bass as the treble, and

529
00:33:59.319 --> 00:34:03.599
now kind of like, no, I like it more balanced now,

530
00:34:03.720 --> 00:34:07.039
and I've even you know, it's funny. I go and

531
00:34:07.079 --> 00:34:10.760
I do you know, radio coverage at music festivals all

532
00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:15.400
over to US, UK, Europe, and I never wear earplugs

533
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:18.800
like I don't like them. I don't want, I don't

534
00:34:19.079 --> 00:34:21.159
and I think it doesn't make it. I think it

535
00:34:21.199 --> 00:34:25.840
makes the music worse. And I've stood up against motorheads

536
00:34:25.880 --> 00:34:29.599
speakers with my ear up to it, you know, and

537
00:34:29.719 --> 00:34:33.000
like I still hear pretty well, So I'm okay at

538
00:34:33.000 --> 00:34:38.400
this point. But there was one festival I can't remember

539
00:34:38.440 --> 00:34:42.360
what it was, but one man, I have like thousands

540
00:34:42.440 --> 00:34:45.480
and thousands of sets I've been to that the treble

541
00:34:45.679 --> 00:34:48.639
actually hurt my ears. I was up in the I

542
00:34:48.679 --> 00:34:51.119
was up in the photo pit, and they had that

543
00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:55.920
treble so high that I literally, like it, my ears

544
00:34:56.000 --> 00:34:59.079
were in pain. And that never happens to me, Like

545
00:34:59.599 --> 00:35:01.599
a I could be up there in the photo pit

546
00:35:01.880 --> 00:35:04.800
or anywhere closed, I could stand right next to the speaker,

547
00:35:04.880 --> 00:35:08.639
doesn't bother me at all. So maybe that is a

548
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:11.960
thing that like maybe over time your ears get more

549
00:35:12.039 --> 00:35:14.360
sensitive to the treble than the bass, because I don't

550
00:35:14.360 --> 00:35:16.559
think the base really affects your ears the same way

551
00:35:16.599 --> 00:35:17.000
as treble.

552
00:35:17.079 --> 00:35:19.719
Doth No, probably not, because I mean it's trouble.

553
00:35:19.719 --> 00:35:22.000
That's all your high end, like all the high end

554
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:25.000
stuff at least you know, mids and base that's all

555
00:35:25.039 --> 00:35:27.840
you know, obviously your lower end things. But yeah, I

556
00:35:28.039 --> 00:35:30.719
just always you know, like I said, doing trombone, I

557
00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:34.360
just always loved the base cleft, uh after that because

558
00:35:34.559 --> 00:35:37.199
for me, like I like to feel everything.

559
00:35:37.239 --> 00:35:41.719
Yeah, totally, like especially bands.

560
00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:43.639
He's like eight to eight drops. I love that.

561
00:35:43.800 --> 00:35:46.679
I love all of that, Like you' spending times right,

562
00:35:46.719 --> 00:35:48.960
like they hit like a floor tome or something at

563
00:35:48.960 --> 00:35:50.360
the same time and eight o eight drops.

564
00:35:50.400 --> 00:35:52.039
I love how that that messes up?

565
00:35:52.840 --> 00:35:54.679
Well, it's funny you should say that because I was

566
00:35:54.800 --> 00:35:57.880
with concert during the summer that I brought my brother

567
00:35:58.320 --> 00:36:01.960
and oh well he was complaining the whole time. Is

568
00:36:02.000 --> 00:36:04.400
because the bass was like beating in his chest and

569
00:36:04.480 --> 00:36:07.039
I had the exact opposite feeling. I'm like, man, I

570
00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:09.639
love it. It feels good. It feels like I'm part

571
00:36:09.679 --> 00:36:17.519
of the music about it. Yeah, right, So what was

572
00:36:17.599 --> 00:36:21.719
it that made you turn to You know a lot

573
00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:25.039
of us metal heads are into horror and stuff, but

574
00:36:25.079 --> 00:36:29.400
what made you turn to combining those two loves into one.

575
00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:34.559
So when this band first started, we were actually operating

576
00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:37.079
under a different name. When this band first started, we

577
00:36:37.079 --> 00:36:40.719
were called Suicide Puppets. Up until recently, I want to say,

578
00:36:40.719 --> 00:36:43.079
about four or five months ago, did we do a

579
00:36:43.079 --> 00:36:47.559
whole rebrand to Horror Scene. Now, even under Suicide Puppets,

580
00:36:48.800 --> 00:36:52.199
everything was still horror related, you know, murder, killing, death,

581
00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:53.719
fun stuff like that.

582
00:36:53.800 --> 00:36:55.000
As far as our lyrics go.

583
00:36:56.079 --> 00:36:57.840
I was It's just one of those things. Like us

584
00:36:57.880 --> 00:36:59.760
as a band, it just made sense, like we all

585
00:36:59.760 --> 00:37:03.360
love horror. We all loved metal, we all industrial metal,

586
00:37:03.559 --> 00:37:06.159
and we just kind of like smashed everything together. But like,

587
00:37:06.199 --> 00:37:07.719
this is who we're going to be because this is

588
00:37:07.719 --> 00:37:08.559
everything that we love.

589
00:37:09.400 --> 00:37:12.159
I love it. And it's so funny you said what

590
00:37:12.199 --> 00:37:15.239
you did because my okay, before you, I did my

591
00:37:15.320 --> 00:37:17.679
live showing them. Before that, I did another interview and

592
00:37:17.840 --> 00:37:21.079
that band did a whole rebranding. So today's the day

593
00:37:21.119 --> 00:37:27.519
of rebranding. But listen, the most successful rebranding of all

594
00:37:27.599 --> 00:37:31.360
time was Black Sabbath. You know, they were originally Earth

595
00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:33.719
and then like, could you imagine if they were still

596
00:37:33.719 --> 00:37:35.840
a cold Earth? I don't think they would be as

597
00:37:35.880 --> 00:37:39.679
relevant today. Nobody would care not Yeah, I.

598
00:37:39.679 --> 00:37:42.599
Mean well the rebrand was almost out of necessity as well.

599
00:37:43.159 --> 00:37:46.159
Yeah, with suicide in our band name, we were getting

600
00:37:46.159 --> 00:37:47.440
smashed in algorithms.

601
00:37:47.679 --> 00:37:48.519
Google wouldn't even.

602
00:37:48.440 --> 00:37:52.480
Let us advertise anymore, so we had to do a rebrand.

603
00:37:53.719 --> 00:37:54.880
But but you're.

604
00:37:54.800 --> 00:37:57.760
Right, I think this is this name fits us a

605
00:37:57.800 --> 00:38:01.480
little bit better. Plus we have like I think there's

606
00:38:01.559 --> 00:38:06.199
eight films right now that are two of them are out,

607
00:38:06.400 --> 00:38:09.559
but the other uh six are in post production that

608
00:38:09.599 --> 00:38:11.559
features our music, and they're all horror films.

609
00:38:11.960 --> 00:38:14.000
So it works out.

610
00:38:13.639 --> 00:38:16.360
So we need I think what we need in twenty

611
00:38:16.480 --> 00:38:20.199
twenty six or twenty twenty seven is a tour of

612
00:38:20.719 --> 00:38:22.440
Zombie Ice nine kills.

613
00:38:22.480 --> 00:38:26.360
And you guys, I am one thousand percent on board

614
00:38:26.400 --> 00:38:28.519
with that idea.

615
00:38:27.840 --> 00:38:35.280
Right right, oh man, But I do love, like I

616
00:38:35.280 --> 00:38:38.239
said in the beginning, have did it combined? Like people

617
00:38:38.239 --> 00:38:41.519
there are haters on that. Like I'm old school from

618
00:38:41.599 --> 00:38:43.639
the eighties, so a lot of my old school metal

619
00:38:43.639 --> 00:38:47.480
head friends are like, I hate depends pretty missed today.

620
00:38:47.559 --> 00:38:51.280
It's stupid, and I'm like, no, I think it's kind

621
00:38:51.280 --> 00:38:54.039
of cool, man. It just makes it makes for a

622
00:38:54.079 --> 00:38:58.440
better show. And I've even thought about myself. Okay, So

623
00:38:58.960 --> 00:39:03.199
I thought about myself because I've interviewed a bunch of

624
00:39:03.239 --> 00:39:05.559
people that wear masks or makeup, and then when I

625
00:39:06.039 --> 00:39:09.760
see him without hi, I'm like, oh, well that's why

626
00:39:09.800 --> 00:39:14.599
you do that. So I'm like, I'm like, you know,

627
00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:18.960
I'm thinking myself. Okay, I'm fifty nine years old. You

628
00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:22.840
know I could wear a mask, start a band and

629
00:39:22.960 --> 00:39:25.679
just get really big like sleep Token, and take my

630
00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:29.400
mask off and say ha ha, fuckers, I'm sixty years old.

631
00:39:32.039 --> 00:39:34.199
I mean, well that's I mean, that's the beauty behind

632
00:39:34.239 --> 00:39:37.039
it though, like you know, like you said, like when

633
00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:39.800
we initially when we started out, we didn't do.

634
00:39:39.760 --> 00:39:41.360
Any of the face paint all that stuff.

635
00:39:41.400 --> 00:39:44.320
And and of course, like sometimes when we run ads,

636
00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:47.880
like recently, we were running an ad because we dropped

637
00:39:47.880 --> 00:39:52.519
a single back on January second, a song called Yau,

638
00:39:52.920 --> 00:39:55.039
and we'd run an ad for it because our song

639
00:39:55.119 --> 00:39:58.840
previously that Welcome to Your Hell, breached number sixteen on

640
00:39:58.880 --> 00:40:02.960
the Metal Contraband topic charts, so we were kind of

641
00:40:02.960 --> 00:40:05.519
promoting to it. At one shot said hey, you know

642
00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:08.079
chart climbing metal band whatever.

643
00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:09.599
I forget how it was worded at.

644
00:40:09.519 --> 00:40:12.000
This point, and it was sent out there and like

645
00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:15.400
you should have seen the hate comments like oh, gimmicky bind,

646
00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:18.480
it's already been done, blah blah blah.

647
00:40:18.679 --> 00:40:21.280
It's like I never understood that.

648
00:40:21.400 --> 00:40:24.280
Like if you don't like something, that's fine, but like

649
00:40:24.639 --> 00:40:28.320
what really compels you to like just throw so much hate?

650
00:40:28.519 --> 00:40:29.159
You know what I mean?

651
00:40:30.039 --> 00:40:35.360
Yeah, you're listen. Most of my show today, my live

652
00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:39.199
show was about how ridiculous people are being with the

653
00:40:39.280 --> 00:40:42.559
bad bunny thing at the Super Bowl set aside the

654
00:40:42.639 --> 00:40:46.239
politics or any of that shit, Like what do you care?

655
00:40:46.719 --> 00:40:50.920
Didn't tune out, don't watch the fifteen minutes of the

656
00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:54.360
halftime show, Like, who give? Like there's plenty a halftime

657
00:40:54.440 --> 00:40:56.760
shows that I didn't want to watch. I don't care.

658
00:40:56.880 --> 00:40:59.519
It didn't bother me enough to throw hate. You know.

659
00:40:59.599 --> 00:41:03.199
It's like, so what switched to something else? You know,

660
00:41:03.239 --> 00:41:06.199
they had all these alternatives, so go watch that alternative?

661
00:41:06.239 --> 00:41:06.920
Who cares?

662
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:07.719
You know?

663
00:41:08.039 --> 00:41:11.800
But like, I don't know why it's such a big deal,

664
00:41:12.480 --> 00:41:15.320
Like it's stupid that everything's going to be such a

665
00:41:15.320 --> 00:41:17.480
big deal and music should be such a big deal.

666
00:41:17.840 --> 00:41:21.719
My other peeve is like where they say people that

667
00:41:21.880 --> 00:41:27.480
are musicians shouldn't have a voice. Uh, it's the exact opposite, morons,

668
00:41:28.440 --> 00:41:30.760
That's just what I'm gonna say, Like, of course they

669
00:41:30.800 --> 00:41:34.840
should have a voice. They are also people that can

670
00:41:34.880 --> 00:41:37.639
exercise free them of speech, and if they want to

671
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:42.480
speak their mind about things, that's our prerogative. All music

672
00:41:42.559 --> 00:41:45.639
since the beginning of time that wasn't pop music did that,

673
00:41:46.239 --> 00:41:51.039
you know, right, Rock has always done that, you know,

674
00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:54.199
spoke up about things. You know, you don't have to

675
00:41:54.239 --> 00:41:58.519
agree with it. Don't listen you don't like it. To

676
00:41:58.599 --> 00:42:02.880
your point, I don't get why people waste their breath

677
00:42:03.039 --> 00:42:06.559
with hate, Like, if you hate it, I'm cool. Keep

678
00:42:06.559 --> 00:42:12.679
it to yourself. Yeah right, you know, what do you do?

679
00:42:13.039 --> 00:42:13.280
You know?

680
00:42:14.239 --> 00:42:17.280
But I think no matter what you do, you're gonna

681
00:42:17.280 --> 00:42:19.719
get it. I see it with the festivals too. We

682
00:42:19.800 --> 00:42:24.119
went for two years with no live music, festivals came back.

683
00:42:24.159 --> 00:42:26.159
I'm like, oh man, this is gonna be great because

684
00:42:26.199 --> 00:42:29.840
all those people that were bitching all the time won't

685
00:42:29.880 --> 00:42:32.519
be bitching anymore because they just realize what it's like

686
00:42:32.599 --> 00:42:37.199
to not have live music. They're still bitching, Like it

687
00:42:37.400 --> 00:42:40.199
just blows my mind. What I love the ones that

688
00:42:41.199 --> 00:42:45.559
when they're going to a festival and one band drops

689
00:42:45.599 --> 00:42:48.000
out for whatever reason, they're like, oh, that's the only

690
00:42:48.039 --> 00:42:50.440
reason I was going to a festival. Well, that's a

691
00:42:50.519 --> 00:42:53.840
stupid idea. Go to their concert. Then I go to

692
00:42:53.920 --> 00:42:58.280
festivals to discover new music. They don't play their regular

693
00:42:58.400 --> 00:43:01.039
set at a festival. If you're only going for one

694
00:43:01.119 --> 00:43:03.360
band good at their concert, you'll be better off.

695
00:43:03.679 --> 00:43:05.599
Yeah, how about it? And that's an expensive ticket for

696
00:43:05.639 --> 00:43:06.400
one band if you.

697
00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:08.119
Think about it, you know what I mean, no doubt,

698
00:43:08.199 --> 00:43:10.679
And like, why would you miss other bands? How would

699
00:43:10.679 --> 00:43:12.760
you know about the one band you're going to see?

700
00:43:12.800 --> 00:43:15.280
If you didn't see them for the first time. Like

701
00:43:15.440 --> 00:43:18.480
some of my favorite bands, I didn't know who they were.

702
00:43:18.920 --> 00:43:20.719
And that's the way it was in the eighties too,

703
00:43:20.840 --> 00:43:25.199
Like that's where stuff like what you're doing with all

704
00:43:25.239 --> 00:43:28.960
the entertainment performance bar of it. It's like, listen, we

705
00:43:29.000 --> 00:43:33.119
couldn't hear music before we bought it, so we went

706
00:43:33.199 --> 00:43:37.920
by the album cover. Yeah, and gigs. I remember the

707
00:43:38.039 --> 00:43:42.400
first club gig I ever went to. My dad moved

708
00:43:42.440 --> 00:43:46.079
me from New Jersey to LA in nineteen eighty if

709
00:43:46.119 --> 00:43:49.079
you can imagine a time to move to La Okay,

710
00:43:49.679 --> 00:43:53.400
And so I saw this ad for this band playing

711
00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:56.199
at the Roxy on the Sunset Strip. I had never

712
00:43:56.280 --> 00:44:00.559
been to a club show ever, and I was and

713
00:44:00.599 --> 00:44:02.960
I went just because of the way they looked. Now,

714
00:44:03.000 --> 00:44:06.159
this was before they ever had an album, so they

715
00:44:06.159 --> 00:44:08.519
were kind of like horror punk at the time. And

716
00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:12.599
that was Motley Crue. Yeah, And I mean, like I

717
00:44:12.639 --> 00:44:15.360
remember going to that show. I'm like, I'm never going

718
00:44:15.400 --> 00:44:18.800
to a real concert again, because to me, equate the

719
00:44:18.880 --> 00:44:22.159
real concerts were boring. This was exciting. There was a

720
00:44:22.159 --> 00:44:24.840
lot of stuff going on and a lot of performance

721
00:44:24.960 --> 00:44:30.480
and all that, you know. And then the second club

722
00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:34.400
show I ever did similar type of scenario. I saw

723
00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:38.800
this ad in band magazine and the headliner their picture

724
00:44:38.960 --> 00:44:43.239
was there and it was Wasp. Was Wasp Armored Saint

725
00:44:43.239 --> 00:44:46.280
in this band headshaker. I mean, to this day, I'm

726
00:44:46.280 --> 00:44:49.559
friends with the bands from Armored Saint because but I

727
00:44:49.599 --> 00:44:53.719
mean that just totally turned me. Those things totally turned

728
00:44:53.719 --> 00:44:55.920
me into a metal head. Like I liked the medal

729
00:44:56.000 --> 00:45:00.719
before that, Yeah, but those live experiences like you produce

730
00:45:01.480 --> 00:45:04.960
are what got me into it. If I there's one

731
00:45:05.039 --> 00:45:07.719
band that plays at festivals, all the press people make

732
00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:09.760
fun of because they only just stand there and play,

733
00:45:09.840 --> 00:45:13.000
and we all call them the most boring band live ever.

734
00:45:13.559 --> 00:45:16.239
And if that's what I experienced a band like that,

735
00:45:16.480 --> 00:45:18.360
maybe I wouldn't be a metal head today.

736
00:45:18.760 --> 00:45:19.440
Yeah, exactly.

737
00:45:20.000 --> 00:45:22.440
You know it's supposed to be like a show.

738
00:45:22.880 --> 00:45:25.280
Yeah, it's And even as a musician, dude, if you're

739
00:45:25.320 --> 00:45:27.320
up there just standing around like and you look bored,

740
00:45:27.360 --> 00:45:28.079
it's like, are you.

741
00:45:28.039 --> 00:45:29.360
Even enjoying what you're doing?

742
00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:32.920
Right when I'm behind the kit, you know, I'm moving around,

743
00:45:33.239 --> 00:45:35.679
flinging things around and what like, I mean, I'm having

744
00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:37.559
fun and it should be fun.

745
00:45:38.559 --> 00:45:41.280
And you know what a lot of people throw hate

746
00:45:41.320 --> 00:45:44.480
towards Lars, and he always looks like he's having fun,

747
00:45:45.480 --> 00:45:50.159
you know. So okay, you know, and he was right

748
00:45:50.199 --> 00:45:54.039
about you know, Napster, so oh yeah, everybody gave a

749
00:45:54.119 --> 00:45:57.320
mate for that. So I'd say, just let people be

750
00:45:57.440 --> 00:46:01.239
people express themselves. That's what being Anoris Day is. Expressing

751
00:46:01.280 --> 00:46:04.480
yourself the way you want to express and you'll collect

752
00:46:04.480 --> 00:46:09.320
your tribe, you know, the people that like it. You know, again,

753
00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:12.320
I don't get wasted time you don't like something listening

754
00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:16.840
to something else period, you know, watch something else. Okay,

755
00:46:17.519 --> 00:46:19.760
So what else do you have on the horizon here

756
00:46:19.840 --> 00:46:22.639
for twenty twenty six, Well, we.

757
00:46:22.639 --> 00:46:26.239
Have more releases coming out. So we started working with

758
00:46:27.480 --> 00:46:30.920
a notable producer named Dan Malchch. Dan Mausch has produced

759
00:46:30.920 --> 00:46:33.800
bands like Ghost Gojira, A Bench Seven, Full Door Petch,

760
00:46:33.840 --> 00:46:37.000
you know, small little metal bands, and he started working

761
00:46:37.000 --> 00:46:38.000
with us last year.

762
00:46:38.559 --> 00:46:41.119
So we're going back up to his studio.

763
00:46:42.480 --> 00:46:45.559
At the end of March, so next month, and we

764
00:46:45.599 --> 00:46:48.360
actually have another single dropping the same time that we're

765
00:46:48.360 --> 00:46:51.000
going into the studio. We're trying to get things geared up.

766
00:46:51.400 --> 00:46:54.880
More than likely, either in an EP or an LP

767
00:46:55.039 --> 00:46:58.000
is going to be dropping this year. We are currently

768
00:46:58.039 --> 00:47:01.639
working on a tour for the month or around August

769
00:47:01.880 --> 00:47:04.239
time frame is where we're looking at. So we do

770
00:47:04.280 --> 00:47:07.199
have a festival coming up in March.

771
00:47:08.000 --> 00:47:10.679
That's March. I think it's March sixth and March ninth.

772
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:14.559
It's Inked and Loud at the York Fairgrounds in York, Pennsylvania.

773
00:47:18.800 --> 00:47:21.079
I think as of right now, that's kind of where

774
00:47:21.079 --> 00:47:24.559
we're sitting on things. But we are doing a lot

775
00:47:24.599 --> 00:47:27.079
of writing and whatnot, so there's there's a lot of

776
00:47:27.079 --> 00:47:29.719
other things like moving parts going on behind the scenes.

777
00:47:31.320 --> 00:47:33.119
So yeah, but I mean there's there's a lot coming

778
00:47:33.159 --> 00:47:34.400
this year for sure.

779
00:47:35.199 --> 00:47:37.039
So here's what I want to know too that I

780
00:47:37.079 --> 00:47:40.679
think I already know the answer. Okay, So when you

781
00:47:40.719 --> 00:47:43.239
put on the makeup and get all dressed up for

782
00:47:43.320 --> 00:47:45.880
your live show, is it almost like you go into

783
00:47:45.920 --> 00:47:49.119
a transformation and become the musician. It's kind of like me,

784
00:47:49.360 --> 00:47:51.639
like as soon as the mike turns on, there's a

785
00:47:51.679 --> 00:47:56.360
switch in my head that radio personality comes out, you know,

786
00:47:56.559 --> 00:47:58.960
like automatically, I don't even think about it. Do you

787
00:47:59.400 --> 00:48:02.719
think that's the when you're like in those costumes in

788
00:48:02.800 --> 00:48:06.760
the makeup, like you transform and like kind of be

789
00:48:06.960 --> 00:48:10.440
that that entity, so to speak, I.

790
00:48:10.360 --> 00:48:12.920
Would say yes, yeah, because we all have different stage

791
00:48:13.000 --> 00:48:16.000
names like minds Vetitas our drummer or our drummer. I

792
00:48:16.000 --> 00:48:20.480
am the drummer, our lead singer. He goes by Twisty,

793
00:48:20.519 --> 00:48:23.719
our bass player goes by Johnny. We have three guitar

794
00:48:23.800 --> 00:48:27.960
players Steven and Victus and z so we all have

795
00:48:28.000 --> 00:48:30.119
stage names. So yeah, absolutely, as soon as like the

796
00:48:30.159 --> 00:48:33.840
makeup goes on and whatnot, like we become that persona.

797
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:37.719
We embody who that individual is. Another another good point

798
00:48:37.760 --> 00:48:39.880
about putting on makeup and whatnot is like if you're

799
00:48:41.280 --> 00:48:43.719
especially when it comes to local shows, like if we're

800
00:48:43.760 --> 00:48:46.280
standing around, even if we're not next to each other,

801
00:48:46.920 --> 00:48:49.960
you know that we are together as a band.

802
00:48:50.440 --> 00:48:51.760
Yeah you know what I mean.

803
00:48:51.880 --> 00:48:54.320
So that's another reason why we do the makeup. But yeah,

804
00:48:54.320 --> 00:48:59.480
one hundred percent. Yeah, we definitely become our personas wants

805
00:48:59.480 --> 00:48:59.840
the makeup.

806
00:49:00.639 --> 00:49:04.360
Well, it's like me, my radio Monker persona is pipe Man,

807
00:49:04.519 --> 00:49:07.280
and there is a different persona to it, like part

808
00:49:07.320 --> 00:49:09.239
of it is real me and part of it is

809
00:49:09.360 --> 00:49:12.719
the alter ego me. But it is so funny that

810
00:49:13.440 --> 00:49:16.559
even my kids sometimes now will call me pipe Man

811
00:49:18.480 --> 00:49:21.440
and then Alexa calls me pipe man all the time,

812
00:49:21.519 --> 00:49:27.920
so that's always funny. Nice, but uh, how do people

813
00:49:28.000 --> 00:49:31.320

We recently just got new hoodies in which is kind

825
00:50:05.679 --> 00:50:06.760
of cool. Unfortunately I don't have.

826
00:50:06.679 --> 00:50:10.199
Any with me to show you, but it's basically just

827
00:50:10.239 --> 00:50:11.719
has the logo on the front of the hoodie.

828
00:50:11.760 --> 00:50:12.400
It's pretty cool.

829
00:50:12.960 --> 00:50:16.320
Nice. Nice. I bet you have some badass merch and

830
00:50:16.400 --> 00:50:19.079
people can't like listen to my show anymore unless they

831
00:50:19.079 --> 00:50:19.960
buy your march.

832
00:50:21.920 --> 00:50:25.639
Well people items, to say the least, some of my wife,

833
00:50:25.719 --> 00:50:26.760
my wife came up with.

834
00:50:27.639 --> 00:50:29.480
We have these like little voodoo dolls that come with

835
00:50:29.480 --> 00:50:31.039
their own pins and needles and stuff.

836
00:50:32.079 --> 00:50:32.320
We have.

837
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:35.280
We have something that's called the Serial Killer Archives, which

838
00:50:35.320 --> 00:50:39.360
is a box that's filled with uh like that kinetic

839
00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:42.800
sand stuff. And inside the kinetic sand we have these

840
00:50:42.920 --> 00:50:46.519
USB I actually have one here, Unfortunately I don't have

841
00:50:46.559 --> 00:50:47.119
the bottom on it.

842
00:50:47.159 --> 00:50:48.960
But we have these USB's that look like coffins.

843
00:50:49.719 --> 00:50:50.840
Oh wow, that's cool.

844
00:50:51.239 --> 00:50:52.800
It had Yeah, it has the old band name on it.

845
00:50:52.880 --> 00:50:55.440
But it's got two full albums on it. But when

846
00:50:55.440 --> 00:50:57.079
you open up the box, there's a shovel in there

847
00:50:57.079 --> 00:50:58.840
in a headstone. You have to dig the USB out

848
00:50:58.840 --> 00:50:59.280
of the dirt.

849
00:50:59.679 --> 00:51:04.360
I see, that's creativity. Like that brings me back because

850
00:51:04.639 --> 00:51:08.119
I think it's stuff like that that kids are missing

851
00:51:08.119 --> 00:51:12.519
out nowadays with albums, you know, because like I remember

852
00:51:12.559 --> 00:51:16.199
being a kid and buying love gun, and that was

853
00:51:16.239 --> 00:51:19.639
when the popper things in school were very popular. You

854
00:51:19.639 --> 00:51:23.039
would make these paper popper things, and so they made

855
00:51:23.079 --> 00:51:25.800
the Kiss made a love gun. That was one of

856
00:51:25.800 --> 00:51:29.199
those poppers. But it was the Kiss love gun. And

857
00:51:29.400 --> 00:51:31.280
you know, of course you could get in trouble in

858
00:51:31.320 --> 00:51:36.480
school because you were using school and you know, but

859
00:51:36.920 --> 00:51:39.239
I used to love, like I'd buy albums and there

860
00:51:39.239 --> 00:51:43.639
would be gifts in there. Sometimes or like I got

861
00:51:43.719 --> 00:51:46.920
really into the Beatles because of the nineteen sixty nine

862
00:51:47.039 --> 00:51:50.519
radio show that Paul McCartney was dead and you had

863
00:51:50.519 --> 00:51:52.880
to buy all the albums to get the clues. So

864
00:51:52.960 --> 00:51:55.960
I bought every Beatles album to check out the clues

865
00:51:56.079 --> 00:52:01.119
and play the album backwards and all that stuff. You know,

866
00:52:01.679 --> 00:52:04.960
kids don't get to do that cool stuff anymore, you

867
00:52:05.039 --> 00:52:05.840
know about it.

868
00:52:06.360 --> 00:52:08.199
I remember when I was like a kid in the

869
00:52:08.599 --> 00:52:14.119
nineties when CDs became a thing, like half the fun

870
00:52:14.239 --> 00:52:17.039
was buying the CD of your favorite band or whatever,

871
00:52:17.400 --> 00:52:19.519
and then there would be like hidden tracks on it.

872
00:52:19.960 --> 00:52:25.800
Yeah, totally, totally, or like that. When Motley Cruze came

873
00:52:25.840 --> 00:52:29.280
out with the first album, there were only like I

874
00:52:29.360 --> 00:52:31.960
think there were only like thirty copies of the original

875
00:52:32.039 --> 00:52:36.519
which had a real zipper on the cover, like a

876
00:52:36.599 --> 00:52:39.960
real working zipper like you see it in the picture now,

877
00:52:40.039 --> 00:52:44.000
but actually and it was like, wow, that's so cool

878
00:52:44.079 --> 00:52:48.480
to have that, you know, and absolutely, Like I remember

879
00:52:48.559 --> 00:52:54.559
one of tools CDs had like a magnifying glass. It

880
00:52:54.679 --> 00:52:57.199
had like it was I forget which album, but it

881
00:52:57.239 --> 00:53:00.559
was black at full I still have it black over

882
00:53:00.639 --> 00:53:03.599
and it had like a little magnifying class in the

883
00:53:03.760 --> 00:53:08.000
CD cover. Ah, you know, it was wild, so like

884
00:53:08.880 --> 00:53:10.960
I think we need to go back to that. It's

885
00:53:11.039 --> 00:53:13.079
like kind of it's kind of like if you had

886
00:53:13.119 --> 00:53:18.719
happy meals at McDonald's without toys. It's not as much fun. Yeah. Yeah.

887
00:53:18.840 --> 00:53:21.599
And it's weird though too, because like even when this

888
00:53:21.679 --> 00:53:24.280
band first started, we still have physical copies of things,

889
00:53:24.440 --> 00:53:26.360
but now when we buy physical copies of things, we

890
00:53:26.679 --> 00:53:29.239
buy like way less now because with all the digital

891
00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:31.239
agent where and everybody just goes you know, they'll stream

892
00:53:31.239 --> 00:53:33.119
it right away or I'll just get it off of

893
00:53:33.199 --> 00:53:36.159
iTunes this side or the other. But like we did

894
00:53:36.320 --> 00:53:39.960
vinyl recently for our last EP No. Two EPs ago,

895
00:53:40.039 --> 00:53:43.440
Beyond the Veil, and I mean we sold quite a

896
00:53:43.519 --> 00:53:46.199
bit because there's a big resurgence in vinyl, which is

897
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:51.679
kind of cool. But we're still sitting on media, just

898
00:53:51.719 --> 00:53:54.159
sitting on it. You know, nobody buys physic It's it's

899
00:53:54.880 --> 00:53:55.639
it's hard.

900
00:53:55.400 --> 00:54:00.880
Man, yeah it is. And you know what's interesting about

901
00:54:01.000 --> 00:54:03.639
vinyl now, I just found this out recently. I was

902
00:54:03.679 --> 00:54:08.119
taking my granddaughter to get a holiday gift and she

903
00:54:08.199 --> 00:54:11.280
wanted a record album. Like two of my grandkids are

904
00:54:11.519 --> 00:54:15.920
total record collectors, So I think that's so cool, and

905
00:54:16.440 --> 00:54:20.440
uh I remember looking at the price, I'm like, are

906
00:54:20.480 --> 00:54:24.840
you fucking kidding me? It was like thirty six dollars

907
00:54:24.840 --> 00:54:28.119
for an album. I still have albums that still have

908
00:54:28.199 --> 00:54:31.480
the price tag on them at home, at say like

909
00:54:31.639 --> 00:54:35.440
two ninety nine for like something. I have an album

910
00:54:35.480 --> 00:54:39.840
by Death that was two ninety nine. Like I've exploited

911
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:43.400
albums that were like two and three dollars, you know,

912
00:54:43.719 --> 00:54:46.719
stuff like that. I think I have a bathroom album

913
00:54:46.800 --> 00:54:54.039
that was ninety nine cents, yeah, like anymore right exactly,

914
00:54:54.079 --> 00:54:56.920
and I bought them because listen, you couldn't hear what

915
00:54:56.960 --> 00:54:59.119
it sounded like. It was like okay for ninety nine

916
00:54:59.159 --> 00:55:01.920
cents for two dollar, I don't give a crap if

917
00:55:01.920 --> 00:55:04.559
I don't like it and the album looks cool, right,

918
00:55:04.920 --> 00:55:07.119
would you do that today? We kid go buy a

919
00:55:07.159 --> 00:55:09.639
thirty dollars album with not knowing though it sounds like

920
00:55:09.679 --> 00:55:11.519
I don't even know how to go to gigs today,

921
00:55:11.559 --> 00:55:14.719
to be honest, Like I went to see Metallica where

922
00:55:14.719 --> 00:55:16.960
I paid two bucks for a ticket and five bucks

923
00:55:16.960 --> 00:55:19.320
for a shirt, Like I don't know how kids can

924
00:55:19.440 --> 00:55:21.239
even go to a show today.

925
00:55:23.159 --> 00:55:25.760
Yeah, I mean ticket prices are pretty high, yeah, merch

926
00:55:25.920 --> 00:55:26.800
merch nowadays.

927
00:55:26.840 --> 00:55:29.960
I mean it's I'm all for the merch though, because

928
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:32.559
it's the only way you guys make money. Like, I

929
00:55:32.559 --> 00:55:34.880
think a lot of people don't realize that, so I

930
00:55:34.920 --> 00:55:36.519
make a big deal about it. I was joking about

931
00:55:36.559 --> 00:55:39.119
not listening, but I wasn't really either, because it's like,

932
00:55:39.840 --> 00:55:42.239
you know, it's the only way you guys make money,

933
00:55:42.239 --> 00:55:46.039
your pete. The days of the rock star getting these

934
00:55:46.760 --> 00:55:50.599
massive amounts of money and drugs is totally over, okay,

935
00:55:51.199 --> 00:55:55.000
Like you guys have to work your ass off, okay,

936
00:55:55.239 --> 00:56:02.079
And I just think, you know, you guys deserve to

937
00:56:02.119 --> 00:56:05.400
make a living. You're working hard. And when people say, oh,

938
00:56:05.480 --> 00:56:08.159
they should just blow up. Do you work for free?

939
00:56:08.239 --> 00:56:10.440
Is what I say to them, Like it is. It

940
00:56:10.519 --> 00:56:13.039
is what you need to make a living. So support

941
00:56:13.119 --> 00:56:17.920
bands by their merch, specially Horror Seeing, because again, can't

942
00:56:17.920 --> 00:56:19.679
listen to my show unless you buy their merchant. They

943
00:56:19.679 --> 00:56:22.760
probably have a cool cools merchant You're going to love forever,

944
00:56:22.960 --> 00:56:24.679
So just get it right.

945
00:56:24.719 --> 00:56:26.880
We have cough We have coff and keychains too. I mean,

946
00:56:26.880 --> 00:56:28.960
