Listen in as The Pipeman brings the thunder of nostalgia with JA6UR from the band Lÿnx, taking us back to the raucous era of '80s metal. Our conversation is a laugh riot, filled with anecdotes about name mix-ups and how '80s rock stars were the epitome of excess compared to today's musicians. We explore the Sunset Strip's heyday with legendary bands like Motley Crue, reminiscing about an age where Jack Daniels was the accessory of choice. JA6UR and I discuss how Lÿnx is keeping that electrifying spirit alive, possibly fitting like a glove on a tour with icons like Motley Crue, showcasing the undying allure of that high-voltage time in music history.
The journey of forming a band amidst a global pandemic is no small feat, and Lÿnx's tale is one of resilience and rock 'n' roll revival. We unpack the excitement of transitioning from uncertain beginnings to electrifying live performances that capture the soul of '80s metal. Our chat touches on the power of a single track to ignite a crowd and the band's frontman's insistence on live gigs to channel the authentic vibe of the decade. As I reflect on my own experiences with Halloween gigs and advice from a Metal Blade Records owner, we look forward to Lÿnx's upcoming album - a fusion of punk and hair metal, promising a return to the unabashed rebellion of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.
Wrap up your day with a blast from the past as we chat with Lÿnx's lead vocalist about his transition from mellow acoustic sets to fronting a high-octane rock band. His tale of joining the band and their dedication to a theatrical live presence is as compelling as the anthems they perform. We delve into the importance of creating an entire artistic experience - from the visuals to the lyrics - and how it ties into the immersive world of '80s music culture. For those eager to join the party, we share how fans can connect with the band, dive into their new music, and snag some killer merch. Tune in for a rocking ride with Lÿnx, where the promise of a good time is as steadfast as their riffs.

This chapter kicks off with an energetic introduction by yours truly, the Hyped man, where I bring the essence of W4CY Radio to life. I have the pleasure of welcoming JA6UR from the band Lÿnx to the show, where we chuckle over the common mispronunciations of his name. JA6UR shares the relatable mix-ups with "JA6UR" and "Jaguar," fitting given the band's feline moniker. We reminisce about the iconic '80s metal scene, drawing parallels to today's music world, while JA6UR reflects on his personal connections to the era through his family's musical tastes. We laugh over a meme that contrasts '80s rock stars with today's musicians, and JA6UR assures us that he's keeping the spirit alive with his own Jack Daniels moments. Our conversation takes a nostalgic turn as I recount firsthand experiences with legendary bands like Motley Crue, emphasizing the unforgettable and often wild nature of the Sunset Strip days. We wrap up by discussing Lÿnx's draw to the vibrant aesthetics and sounds of '80s metal, and I even suggest they'd be a great fit to join a Motley Crue tour, celebrating the timeless influence of that electric era on today's music scene.

I reflect on the influence of Halloween gigs, iconic venues like The Roxy and The Troubadour, and the impact of music recommendations from a record store clerk who happened to own Metal Blade Records. We discuss the upcoming first full-length album, set to release on May 9th, and how it signifies the band's evolution, incorporating a blend of punk and '80s hair metal with an almost anarchist ethos, aiming to revive the spirit of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.

4
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:55.320
the pipe Man. This is the
pipe in here on the Adventures pipe an
5
00:00:55.520 --> 00:01:02.719
W four c Y Radio. And
I'm here with pretty cool ass musicians.
6
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:04.879
Well we have one of them here, but they're all cool ass musicians.
7
00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:11.120
So let's welcome to the show.
Jagger from Lynx, How are you not
8
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.439
bad? How's it going to you? So? Did I pronounce your name
9
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:18.799
right? Because I just ab about
it? You know, you never know,
10
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:22.719
okay like it? They look like
that's the way you're supposed to pronounce
11
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:25.959
it, and they're like, well
no, and you know, so yeah,
12
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:29.040
definitely. I get a lot of
it too, like just spell weird
13
00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.879
too. So yeah, So let
me ask you a question. That's a
14
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:40.200
funny way to start off. What
are the funniest or worst pronunciations that you've
15
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:46.599
gotten? I get Yagger a lot. Yeah, Jagger's pretty pretty common.
16
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:52.359
And I get Jaguar. That one's
good, especially with with the cat theme
17
00:01:52.400 --> 00:01:59.680
of the bands. Right, Yeah, that one's pretty common. Yeah,
18
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:07.400
those two or the no one spelled
already. So I could see the Yager
19
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:09.840
too, because immediately as soon as
you said that, I wouldn't have thought
20
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:14.840
of it by just looking at the
name. But as soon as you said
21
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:20.439
that, I immediately thought of your
mar Yagger. Oh yeah, the hockey
22
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:24.039
player. So yeah, like I
could see maybe if somebody and I am
23
00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:28.719
into hockey, but I could see
somebody that's like got hockey on the brain,
24
00:02:28.840 --> 00:02:31.120
they might be thinking that right there. Oh for sure, for sure
25
00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:36.479
that Yagger bombs. For sure,
there you go, absolutely, well,
26
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:40.560
you can't have eighties medal without yet
Yager bombs, even though I'm from eighties
27
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:49.840
medal and there was no Yaeger back
then. But if there was it yeah,
28
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:53.759
no, it's it's it's all.
But the Jack Daniels exactly well that
29
00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:59.000
you know, hanging out at the
Rainbow during the eighties, that was what
30
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:02.039
it was all about. Oh.
Absolutely. Did you ever see the main
31
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:07.240
meme? Okay, so it goes
right along with that, there's this meme
32
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:12.800
of the rock star from the eighties
and the rock star Now did you ever
33
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:15.639
see that meme? I don't think
so, No, Okay, So It's
34
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:22.879
so funny because the picture on top
is of this long haired hair metal dude
35
00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:28.400
lying on the ground guitar, you
know, his hand in one hand and
36
00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:31.879
Jack Daniels in the other hand,
and then it shows the rock star of
37
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:39.560
today with the guitar on his lap, sitting at the laptop. Yeah.
38
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:45.159
I mean that's how it is these
days. You know, it's a difference,
39
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.719
right with the Jack Daniels Absolutely Well, there you go, So you're
40
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:54.719
you keep it real there, because
I lit lived through all those times that
41
00:03:55.240 --> 00:04:00.800
all that was going on. In
fact, I was at the part when
42
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:09.599
Vince Neil and Razsell went on that
beer run. Yeah. I used to
43
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:15.199
hang out with Mick Marr's at the
Jams Mall on Thousand Oaks. Yeah.
44
00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:20.439
So I'll tell you what, That's
really what propelled me even further into metal,
45
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:28.480
because you know, before the Sunset
Strip days of Motley Crue and all
46
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.199
the bands that were there, you
know, you basically had made and you
47
00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:35.800
had priest, you had stuff like
that does into But I remember the first
48
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:43.360
time I went to a club show, and it was at the Roxy on
49
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:47.439
the Sunset Strip. It was Motley
Crue before they even had their first album.
50
00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:54.279
And I just remember going, oh, my fucking god, I'm never
51
00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:57.319
going to a real concert ever again. This was the best shit ever.
52
00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:00.759
And like after the show, we're
all walking up to Rainbow. I think
53
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:03.800
about it now, I'm like I
was like, hell no at the time,
54
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:09.319
I was fourteen fifteen. I'm like, I look at the Rainbow now,
55
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:11.639
like if I go there now,
I'm like, how the hell did
56
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:13.959
I ever get in this place?
Oh? That's right. I was walking
57
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:17.079
in with people like Motley Crue.
Yeah, there you go, we walk
58
00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:20.600
into the Motley Creue. You going
anywhere you want to go exactly, And
59
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:27.839
there's no exaggeration to any of the
stories. Like listen, if you remembered
60
00:05:28.279 --> 00:05:34.240
eighties on the Sunset Strip, you
weren't there, Yeah, yeah, man,
61
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:41.959
So what is it that prompted you
guys to have such, you know,
62
00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:49.040
like an a connection to that eighties
scene? Like, because I think
63
00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:56.079
it's just way cool that here we
are in twenty twenty four and bringing that
64
00:05:56.360 --> 00:06:00.319
back and there's a lot of it
out there now. Yeah. Well for
65
00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:02.800
me personally, and the same with
a lot of the guys, like that's
66
00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:05.519
what kind of we grew up with, like our my dad playing that kind
67
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:10.600
of stuff around the house. All
the cruise s could row rats and arella
68
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:13.720
that kind of stuff. So it's
something I grew up with. And then
69
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:17.600
just just seeing that that kind of
that scene, that culture, that the
70
00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:23.319
trends and whatnot, the big old
hair, and it's it's like it's there's
71
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:25.800
something that's like gravitational to it,
right, it really pulls you in and
72
00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:30.839
it's it's it's hard not to look
at right. That's me just being the
73
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:32.279
attention wore that I am. That's
exactly what I want. I want people
74
00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:35.360
look at me. So figure out
the more hair I have and the higher
75
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:41.639
my vocals are, then you know
we're set there it is. And I
76
00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:45.600
did see you guys. I saw
a video of you guys doing Live Wire,
77
00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:51.079
and I think maybe you guys should
go on and do the Montley Crue
78
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:56.319
tour. Thank you man, thank
you. Yeah. I know it's it's
79
00:06:56.360 --> 00:07:00.279
it's a great song. We uh
we out of that tour set me six
80
00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:04.240
months after we started playing live I
pushed for that one hard too, but
81
00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:10.600
once we added it, we we
played a smaller any like it's like this
82
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:15.399
little bar bar, like a dive
bar place, but we played it last
83
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:18.759
and we're like the it was Molly
Crue. There's a pit going and everything
84
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:24.480
is like that. Staying in the
set for sure. Nice. I love
85
00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:31.000
it. And speaking of starting like, I gotta give you major props because
86
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:40.439
it's awful ballsy to start a band
during the pandemic, for sure. Definitely
87
00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:44.519
didn't make things easy the rest of
the guys. I'm I don't know if
88
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:46.720
you know where I'm the I'm the
second singer of the band. Actually,
89
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:53.160
so they started during the pandemic,
just doing some two EPs there the original
90
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:56.079
singer, and things don't work out. He didn't want to play live,
91
00:07:56.240 --> 00:08:00.279
and I just wasn't right for the
band. So I joined in right tail
92
00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:03.519
end of the pandemic hurt, when
things are starting to open up. I
93
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:07.000
got in the band for s I
says, we're playing live, so right,
94
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:11.399
Yeah, you can't be an eighties
you can't be an eighties metal band
95
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:16.079
and not play live like that was
the second point. Yeah, Yeah,
96
00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:20.519
so that's what we did. We
did our first show on Halloween of one,
97
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:24.720
and we we tried to do the
whole, the whole Motky doing,
98
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:28.720
bringing the smoke cannons and all the
theatrics we can to the show. So
99
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:33.000
it was definitely a really fun time. I love that, and I love
100
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:37.919
you know you brought up Halloween because
that was also like that was really like
101
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.440
that. That Roxy show was my
first club show, and then after that
102
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:48.480
the next show was what really made
me just hang out at the Sunset Strip,
103
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:52.639
the Troubadour, the Country Club and
in Reseda like all the time.
104
00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:58.120
And it was on Halloween and I
remember. Okay, So we used to
105
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:03.919
go to this record store in the
valley called OZ Records, and there was
106
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:07.720
a store clerk there that worked there
that would always recommend music to us,
107
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:13.559
because back then you couldn't listen to
Spotify, like you had to buy shit,
108
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:16.840
and evedn't even know what sounded like. And if you went to shows,
109
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:20.399
it was because you saw a picture
and you're like, oh, they
110
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:22.799
look cool, We're going to that
show. You didn't even know what they
111
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:28.320
sounded like. And that dude that
was that record store clerk was also the
112
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:33.600
owner of this small record label at
the time called Metal Blade Records. Oh
113
00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:39.720
I'm sure you've heard, yeah,
And so we were in there one time
114
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:43.639
and there was this magazine it was
called band Magazine. It was like a
115
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:48.200
newspaper magazine for you know, the
music scene in Hollywood and stuff, And
116
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:56.039
there was this ad for this show
for and they weren't just on tour recently.
117
00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:03.120
Both bands Wasp and Armored and this
other band, Headshaker that doesn't exist
118
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.799
today, but it was Wasp and
Armored saying the picture was of Wasp and
119
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:09.720
I was like, man, they
are cool as hell. And I went
120
00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:16.120
to that show on Halloween and I
that's when I ended up like meeting from
121
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:20.600
then on all those bands, like
the bands you mentioned, met and partied
122
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:24.720
with them all. Like it was
just this one big scene back then where
123
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:30.799
just everybody knew everybody. It was
fun, it was partying, it was
124
00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:35.360
having the time of your life.
And I think that's what your music is
125
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:39.440
about, is like, forget all
this bullshit we're going on in the world,
126
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:46.360
okay, escape in the music.
And you guys have that type of
127
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:50.080
music that gives you the vibe where
you can feel good and not worry about
128
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:52.120
all the crap going on. Absolutely, man, thanks love for that.
129
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:56.879
Yeah, definitely. Yeah, that's
kind of another big part of like why
130
00:10:56.919 --> 00:11:00.840
we're choosing to pursue the kind of
music we are, Like that's such a
131
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:05.279
huge, huge, anthem of like, you know, fuck everyone else,
132
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:09.039
right, we're here to we want
to do and and try and make some
133
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:11.600
some cool songs out of it.
And I think with this new album,
134
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:16.000
we've we've definitely achieved that and I'm
really really excited for it. So,
135
00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.799
so tell us about the new album. You know, if anybody's happened to
136
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:26.360
listen to your previous albums EPs,
this is the first full length album,
137
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:31.120
which it drops on May ninth,
And uh so, how would you say
138
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:37.279
this has created like involvement for the
band because I always find that even and
139
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.240
back then, you know, the
first and second We're really good because it
140
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:46.159
was the club stuff. It was
the stuff that was familiar, but it
141
00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:50.440
was about time where you got to
those like full length albums that you were
142
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:54.360
really forming who you were as a
band. Yeah, exactly, And I
143
00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:58.639
think that's true with this especially is
like I mentioned, like, I'm I'm
144
00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:05.960
the second singer coming to the band
here and ideally the last. Yeah.
145
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:09.559
So the first two albums they definitely
had that same kind of an eighties feel,
146
00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:15.240
more hard rock kind of thing.
I came in and when we started
147
00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:18.440
writing stuff together, we found this
different kind of like aggression. We didn't
148
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:24.240
have before, and we were able
to write some really cool songs, some
149
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:28.159
more punk feel to it, some
more of that that real eighties hair metal
150
00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:33.840
vibes to it, and just that
almost anarchist vibe. Two things. There's
151
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:35.840
it's it's sex, drugs, rock
and roll, and that's what we're here
152
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:41.480
to try and try and revive.
See And I love that too because when
153
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:45.279
I went to that first month late
cruise show, they weren't glam, they
154
00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:48.480
weren't hair metal because there was no
such thing yet. They were actually like
155
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:54.000
horror punk. Yeah, Shout at
the Devil was their original music. Too
156
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.559
Fast for Love was what the record
labels wanted to put out exactly. Yeah.
157
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:03.159
So yeah with this album, it's
yeah, this album, it's uh,
158
00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:07.960
it's exactly what we wanted to do. We uh, we have a
159
00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:11.320
lot of a lot better teamworking together
now, and it's it's been amazing with
160
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:18.559
coming on and I've been writing lyrics
and helping rearrange parts of the songs and
161
00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:24.200
just writing what I can and helping
as much as and to have so many
162
00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:28.600
of my lyrics just work out so
well. With with what Blades Bread,
163
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:33.200
with what with Things has written,
it's been it's been super super cool.
164
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:37.440
It's process. So tell me what
happened. Since you're the second singer,
165
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:45.600
how did they come to you or
you come to them? It was funny.
166
00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:48.440
I was hanging out, uh,
hang out with this girl, just
167
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:54.639
scrolling through Facebook, and I see
always it's always a girl, right see
168
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:58.360
this post I was. I was
just see my solo music at the time,
169
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.159
which is it's uh, not so
much rock but more kind of acoustic
170
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:05.200
kind of stuff. But I love
playing bands. I've played in bands since
171
00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:11.759
I was sticks or something, so
but I see this post for Calgary eighties
172
00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:16.200
hairband looking for lead vocalists, and
like, I'm a lead vocalist and it's
173
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:20.000
great. So I threw him,
threw him a message, told him about
174
00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:24.159
my story, my influences kind of
thing, and I got a call for
175
00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:30.039
an audition. Went to my audition
and Fangs is the one who calls me
176
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:33.799
a couple of days later, and
he's an asshole. So he calls and
177
00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:37.240
he goes a man, We're really
sorry to tell you. Man, I
178
00:14:37.320 --> 00:14:41.159
talked to the whole band and really
fought for you, but unfortunately he're than
179
00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:46.360
He was a singer of Links.
So I love that to me. I
180
00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:58.039
would so do that myself. So
those live shows, Okay, tell us
181
00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:01.879
more about what we can expect that
live show, because that's what it's all
182
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:07.000
about. To put it simply,
is energy. We were a really high
183
00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:11.600
energy band, uh, and we
get to the crowd moving, and that's
184
00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:13.320
that's what we're here to do.
Man. We're here to provide something that
185
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:16.159
and all other bands in the city
are doing right now, and and it's
186
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.480
such an interactive experience and it's it's
it's from what I've heard from a lot
187
00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:24.200
of people who have come to is
it's not something you can find with with
188
00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:26.519
any other band. There's not a
whole lot of those head bang and fake
189
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.159
your ass kind of bands anymore.
So Uh, it's it's something you expect
190
00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:35.039
for us. You know, I'm
myself and the rest of the band.
191
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:37.120
We're all very theatrical guys, so
you know, it's as much of a
192
00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:41.320
show as it is a performance.
Uh. And it's such super fun stuff
193
00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:45.639
man, that's the way it should
be too. Okay, Like, because
194
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:48.240
I've talked about this, in fact, that a debate about this with somebody
195
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:54.440
recently on social media, because like
everything's a freaking debate on there but it's
196
00:15:54.960 --> 00:16:00.480
it's like, you know, somebody
was talking about out some band. I
197
00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:03.559
can't even remember what it was,
but I just remember them arguing about,
198
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:08.159
you know, being a performer,
and and like that is what you are
199
00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:14.039
when you're getting up on stage.
You're a performer. You're you know.
200
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:21.600
People don't realize that there's multiple assets
of personal personality assets to everybody, but
201
00:16:21.720 --> 00:16:26.799
even more so for a musician,
like who you are on stage doesn't mean
202
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.559
that's exactly who you are off stage. People want to be entertained. Music
203
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:36.799
is Music is more than just the
music. It's a complete package. It's
204
00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:41.799
the art, which I love the
artwork of the album. Yeah, yeah,
205
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:47.399
that's the that's the album or the
single cover. The album cover also
206
00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:52.399
got released as well. Yeah it's
Birch coming with that too. And so
207
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:57.639
I love the art this album.
Yeah, that's all. It's all important
208
00:16:57.720 --> 00:17:00.600
to me, like and that it
also brings us back to the eighties,
209
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:04.240
gets back in the eighties. Yeah. I would sit on my balcony,
210
00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:08.680
buy an album, listen to the
album ten million times, and while I
211
00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:12.799
was doing, look at all the
artwork, every little detail, check out
212
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:18.400
all the lyrics. That's why you
know, people will say, like people
213
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:22.720
from the eighties, they know every
lyric to every song and that's why because
214
00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:27.279
it was like homework exactly. Yeah, yeah, and that's that's what we've
215
00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:30.559
done with this album too, all
of our we just got our vinyls and
216
00:17:32.279 --> 00:17:36.359
physical CDs in the whole thing has
got your little pamphlet with all your lyrics
217
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:41.000
in it and the artwork inside.
Same with the vinyl and yeah, we're
218
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:44.519
doing the whole eighties experience on the
new album here. So I love it
219
00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:48.000
