Wolf of Oceans on Other Planets.

6
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:29.640
Nice, I think, I think I want to surf on

7
00:00:29.719 --> 00:00:30.600
other planets.

8
00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:33.119
Well, we need to get to another planet to be

9
00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:35.759
able to do just about anything, because this planet is

10
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:37.399
kind of uh heading to hell?

11
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:41.920
Yeah in so many ways.

12
00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:42.640
Where do we begin?

13
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:46.119
Like, but then we're just gonna fuck up another planet?

14
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:49.920
Well, the problem is there isn't water on other planets,

15
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:52.799
and there's no air or environment on other planets.

16
00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:55.359
But here we've got total chaos.

17
00:00:56.119 --> 00:01:00.039
And here we have all the beauty nature oceans that

18
00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:01.840
we could have. And then we have your.

19
00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:07.760
Band, Nice Segway, my friend, right right, So tell us

20
00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:12.200
what's going on and why did you get incarcerated?

21
00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:16.040
Well, so, our band is a pretty new band.

22
00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:19.680
It's about three years old, three four years old, and

23
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:23.159
we just finished a tour with Spine, Shank, Head Pee

24
00:01:24.359 --> 00:01:26.599
and Primer fifty five. It was called the New Metal

25
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:30.680
Sucks Tour and we did fifteen shows all across the

26
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:35.480
Midwest of Ohio America out in west of Ohio. And

27
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:38.040
that's our biggest tour today. I mean I've done other

28
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:41.200
longer tours with other projects, but for this project, that

29
00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:43.760
was a very big deal for us. So we started

30
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:45.840
in New Jersey and then went all the way west

31
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:49.400
to Colorado. We finished up in Colorado. We played everywhere

32
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:56.280
man Iowa, Ohio, Chicago, Illinois, Kentucky.

33
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:57.439
Super cool.

34
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:01.760
So then in the fall we're going to tour the

35
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:04.239
UK with Org and Spine Shank as well.

36
00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:04.959
Wow.

37
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:07.560
And we just released a new song called make It

38
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.240
Out Alive featuring Jake Gordon of Orgy Nice and it's

39
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:15.240
doing really well online and been received really well by

40
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:17.319
the fans and all kinds of new people as well.

41
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:21.319
And I'm actually from Ohio originally, and I like to

42
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:23.800
come back here to see my friends, like yourself, like

43
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:28.919
Holly over there, Jose, all the luminaries of the fucking

44
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:31.639
metal culture that we know and love. So really, I'm

45
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:34.159
just here to hang and I would like our band

46
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:36.120
to be playing this festival next year.

47
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:38.159
Let's make that happen.

48
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:39.280
We should make that happen.

49
00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:41.639
You have to play it, I mean, you can't just

50
00:02:41.719 --> 00:02:43.319
be here, you have to play here.

51
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:45.520
Well, if you said it, it must be true.

52
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:48.400
Let's do this, I'm putting it out there in the

53
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:50.479
oceans of other planets.

54
00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:54.240
Incarceration twenty twenty seven. Baby there you go.

55
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:58.759
And okay, well I'm an Acquizia now, okay hit me.

56
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:02.159
I'm a Jersey boy. Okay, Where to play in Jersey?

57
00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:04.759
We played at a little place called Dingbats, which is

58
00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:07.240
like a punk rock dive bar kind of place, which

59
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:10.400
I love those kinds of places actually, And to be clear,

60
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:12.800
those other bands were on tour for like two months

61
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:16.159
before that. We joined up for the last leg and

62
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:18.000
that was our first show in Jersey and it was

63
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.520
super chaotic. Man. It was crazy because like we have

64
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:23.639
a whole system, Like we came in with our mixed

65
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:26.879
set and we were like on stage ready to go,

66
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:29.919
and the mixing lady was running back and forth tweaking

67
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:33.479
shit and everything, and everyone's like, why aren't you guys playing.

68
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:37.240
I'm like, I'm waiting for the sound guy sound girl actually,

69
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:39.639
But anyway, that was the first show Dingbats.

70
00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:41.719
Also, I'm a huge Misfits fan.

71
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:45.520
Glenn Jerry, all those guys they're from New Jersey.

72
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:46.639
Do you know those guys?

73
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:50.120
I did not know them, like personally, I have their

74
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:53.439
review Doyle, Oh, very nice, very nice. And the town

75
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:56.800
at my studio was in for like the last twenty

76
00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:01.919
years till recently lived there too. And I was at

77
00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:04.960
the dentist when I first moved to that town, and

78
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:08.439
I was wearing a Misfits shirt. Yes, And as he's drilling,

79
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:12.960
he's going, so are you a Misfits fan? I'm like, yeah,

80
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.240
he goes Glenn Damsig's my brother in law.

81
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:18.199
Whoa. I love that small world stuff.

82
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.000
Right, That's why don't be a dick. You never know

83
00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:23.839
when you never know, Like I could have had some

84
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:25.639
Misfits suck shirt on it.

85
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:27.600
Right here.

86
00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:28.759
Oh that's badass.

87
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:32.319
Well, dude, that's kind of crazy because I fucking hate

88
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:34.720
the dentist, if I'm being honest with you. But there

89
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:37.319
you are wearing your Misfits shirt in the chair. Was

90
00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:39.279
it just a routine procedure or whatever?

91
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:42.079
It was just a I don't know, a cavity. I

92
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:43.480
think it's a cavity.

93
00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:47.600
So is Glenn's brother in law? Yes, he said, wow. Well,

94
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:48.879
you know, Glenn lived in Hollywood.

95
00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:50.399
I don't know if he still does, but he had

96
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:53.959
this house on Franklin Avenue and he painted all black.

97
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:56.519
And then word got out that was his house, so

98
00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:58.120
people used to go by and hang out in front

99
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.360
of his house because he's a legend in his own right,

100
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.800
you know. And I think he sold it a couple

101
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:06.839
of years ago. But there's like all these like piles

102
00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:09.160
of bricks in the front yard and stuff, and I

103
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:11.920
don't know whatever. But on a side note, my brother

104
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:15.439
Mario and I have a Misfits tribute band called Wee

105
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:18.519
Bite because I just love the music, such great songwriting,

106
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:22.839
you know, and gotta love it. What's your favorite song

107
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:26.160
to play right now off the top of night. I

108
00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:29.800
would say some kind of Hate because you know that song.

109
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.519
Of course, it's very simple, but the melodies are very

110
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:37.360
smooth and intoxicating. Like you know, he's like a almost

111
00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:40.079
like an Elvis or a Jim Morrison type character over

112
00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:41.079
punk rock songs.

113
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:41.920
What's not to love?

114
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:46.480
Exactly one hundred percent. So tell us about your new music.

115
00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:49.240
Tell us more about tell the listeners. Give them like

116
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:53.000
a visual image of what they can expect when they

117
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:53.720
listen to it.

118
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:58.680
Sure, so this is alternative rock. Influences are like Lincoln Park,

119
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:03.759
Smashing Pumpkins, a little bit of Limp Biscuit. There's certainly

120
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:08.319
some metal influence in there as well. But this most

121
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:11.920
recent song is essentially like a very heavy downtune song

122
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:15.279
but with like really nice floating pop melodies over top

123
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.639
of it. So I really encourage everybody to listen to

124
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:21.199
make it out alive. Jay is singing the intro, He's

125
00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:23.639
singing through the choruses and a little bit of the verse,

126
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:28.040
Jay from Orgy, and it's like, I'm very modern, fresh sown.

127
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:29.120
Obviously I'm biased.

128
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:32.279
It's my shit, but if you like melodies but you

129
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:34.120
also like heavy music, I think you're gonna like it.

130
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:38.519
You know, if Jay's part of it, it must be good.

131
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:41.959
Well, I think so. I think it was a great

132
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:44.319
song even before that. But our manager Tom was like,

133
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:46.759
we should do a feature on this. We started talking

134
00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:48.079
to Jay, he listened to the song.

135
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:51.079
He really dug it. And now we're touring with them

136
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:51.600
in the fall.

137
00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:57.600
So tell me how it happened, Like how Jay ended

138
00:06:57.720 --> 00:06:58.439
up on the song.

139
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:01.959
I mean that was the spark, right, So I had

140
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:05.480
the song almost done, to be honest with you, but

141
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:08.319
I'm supposed to have Like so, Johnny from spine Jank

142
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:11.600
is doing a collab with us on dial Loan, another

143
00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:15.879
song we have and we're gonna have Stephen Richards from Taproot.

144
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:17.519
On another song. So I'm like trying to bring in.

145
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:19.920
People that I really love and respect. And then with

146
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:21.759
this song, we're like, well, we already got these other

147
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:23.399
two guys.

148
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:24.560
Who can we put on this song?

149
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:26.839
And we just like we're like listening to the song

150
00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:30.639
and like, stylistically, it's got kind of an orgy vibe.

151
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:33.160
And then that led us to Jay. So Tom got

152
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:35.759
on the phone with Jay. We had a conference call,

153
00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:38.439
send him the song, and he like immediately he was

154
00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:42.040
into it. The trouble though, is Jay had just finished

155
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.279
a tour, I think, and then he had a big

156
00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:46.279
like his computer kind of melted down.

157
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:48.000
So it took a long time because he had.

158
00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:51.680
To basically rehabilitate his computer get his files back. Then

159
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:54.160
he started sending us demos, so we went back and

160
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:57.079
forth over the phone, and what he turned in was

161
00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:58.519
fucking really cool, man.

162
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:01.680
Nice, I love it. So tell everybody how.

163
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:03.720
They could check out the new song, check out your

164
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:06.720
tour and adee and buy your merch because I can't

165
00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:09.120
listen to my show unless say buy your merch.

166
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:12.319
