1
00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:07.280
Hi, you have done to censure?

2
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:12.599
Wow, crazy young.

3
00:00:19.640 --> 00:00:21.600
This is the pipe Man here on the Adventures of

4
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:24.960
Pipe Man W four C Y Radio, and I'm here

5
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.480
with our next guest. Oh my god, I'm so excited

6
00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:32.399
about this because one of my first really heavy, heavy

7
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:35.520
albums is from this band. So I want to welcome

8
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:37.079
to the show, Dante from Venom.

9
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:41.079
How are you hey, I'm thank you, d Nice to

10
00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:41.399
see you.

11
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:44.159
Good to see you. So we were talking about that

12
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:47.920
before the show. Like I didn't tell you about how

13
00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:50.640
I found out about Venom first, Like, so I there

14
00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:53.200
was this record store in the San Fernando Valley in

15
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:55.359
Los Angeles, and there was this record and it was

16
00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:58.479
called OZ Records, and there was this record clerk. His

17
00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:05.400
name was Brian Slagel and yeah, yeah, and he had

18
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:09.719
just started Metal Blade at that time. But we all

19
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:12.400
as teenagers in LA we used to go to that

20
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:15.640
record store and he would show us what we should

21
00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:21.040
listen to. The first album he ever handed to me

22
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:23.159
and said this is the one you need to buy

23
00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:25.879
was Venom Welcome to Hell.

24
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:33.799
So it's his fault, it's all his I know, right,

25
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:37.640
that's a good tale.

26
00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:39.760
Right, It's so funny too. I brought it home. Like

27
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:43.159
before that, I listened to metal, but nothing like, nothing

28
00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:46.560
like Venom, you know, and you know, I listened to

29
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:51.120
Maiden and Priest and stuff like that. And then I'm so,

30
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:53.719
I'm reading the lyrics because it's what we had back

31
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:56.079
in the day, had the album the lyrics, and the

32
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:58.680
album cover looks so cool. But then I'm reading the

33
00:01:58.760 --> 00:02:02.079
lyrics as I'm listening, so so I'm like, this shit's

34
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:02.959
pretty scary.

35
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:03.319
Man.

36
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:04.280
Yeah.

37
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:10.479
Hell, one of my favorite bands ever since, and that

38
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:12.680
led me to where we are today.

39
00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:16.759
You know, hey, thanks for sticking with us.

40
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:20.800
You know, not only sticking with you, but this new

41
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:26.759
album Okay, oh my god, it gives me chills when

42
00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:30.759
I listened to it because it's like old school Venom

43
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:35.560
from back then with a modern twist of a twenty

44
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:37.280
twenty six version of Venom.

45
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:42.240
Yeah, it's got you know exactly what you've just said there.

46
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:45.400
It's like, you know, Venom is Venom, and you know,

47
00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:49.840
as soon as Chronos opens his mouth, that's it. It's undeniable.

48
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.000
You know, it's you know, exactly very unique. You know,

49
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:55.199
he is the man, and it's like, you know, it's

50
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:57.560
like when let me opens his mouth, he knows in

51
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:01.400
a nausey and you know, Dickens and blah blah blah,

52
00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:05.360
Robert Plant, you know. But so it's one of those

53
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:10.919
things you can't replace that person, because yeah, that's the

54
00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:13.759
that's the thing spear ahead of.

55
00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:18.960
What you're listening to. And then in regard to the

56
00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:19.719
sort of.

57
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:25.719
Twenty twenty sixth version, yeah, I mean we obviously we

58
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:27.520
say pretty.

59
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:30.719
Much of respect to all the years and all the

60
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:34.639
years of the lineups, you know, and the members who've

61
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:38.240
been in the band of kind of you know, it's

62
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:42.000
it's been a progression and okay, it's been sort of

63
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:43.960
stopped for a while in the nineties and then they

64
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:45.759
got back together and blah blah blah.

65
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:48.879
But here we are today with this new album, and yeah,

66
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:52.719
I'm pretty sused with it. Put it that way. It's

67
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:56.680
a yes, it's a it's been a long time coming,

68
00:03:56.759 --> 00:03:58.680
but I think it's been worth the way.

69
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:00.840
Well, yeah, you know, I kind of look at it

70
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:04.439
this way. The way the life was in the eighties,

71
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:08.000
It certainly was when we entered the eighties welcome to Hell.

72
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:13.000
And I certainly think in twenty twenty six the way

73
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:15.639
the world is now, we're going into the oblivion.

74
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:21.279
We all are, well, we're taking it with us.

75
00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:22.120
We're going down.

76
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:23.160
Yeah. Yeah.

77
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:27.240
So tell me a little bit of a story of

78
00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:34.720
you know, your entrance into music and then eventually venom.

79
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:38.199
Well, my story sort of starts when I was little

80
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:44.920
giving me grandma, Remember I remember telling me that when

81
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:47.879
you were little, you walked and crawled into our house,

82
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:53.720
says and rich things little in England US have these

83
00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:56.519
like plastic things to keep the tea towels on, like

84
00:04:56.600 --> 00:04:59.079
a tea towel holder in the sort of nineteen seventies,

85
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:02.439
so this would have about what I'm born in seventy five,

86
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:05.199
so what's seventy seven or something. So it must have

87
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:08.879
been the punk movement that made me do this. So

88
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:12.160
she said, you wrenched them off the wall, and she said,

89
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.120
your mother went again.

90
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:16.879
To see what he does.

91
00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:18.759
I put one in his mouth, one in my hand,

92
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:22.279
and I crawled, not my grandfather's legs off this foot

93
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:25.439
puffy like a foot, school turned it upside down and

94
00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:28.040
started drumming on it. So that was probably my first

95
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:28.519
drunk it.

96
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:32.319
You know that. It was biscuit tins, pops and plans.

97
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:34.720
I got a drunk it Eventually when I was twelve,

98
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:37.560
started in the first bands with the best mates and

99
00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:42.120
was still best mates marvel One loads of stuff, doing

100
00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:46.160
loads of cover bands over there, sort of nineties, eighties, nineties,

101
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:51.920
and then and then fortunate enough to join Tony Martin's

102
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:58.120
band from Black Sabbath, who also featured Jeff Nichols God

103
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:02.000
Rest his Soub and that was great, you know, went to.

104
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:04.680
It all over the world and.

105
00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:08.959
Did some great, great shows, some great festivals and actually

106
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:15.160
recorded on Tony's last album, Thrones, which was about three

107
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:21.000
years ago something. And then joining Venom that happened in

108
00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:27.480
two thousand and nine, and now that came about h

109
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.839
I think, yes, it was sort of I got email

110
00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:39.360
to go audition, and I went down chatting well, I

111
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:43.600
spoke to Thronos, came to my house first to sort

112
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:45.439
of check me out and see if I was.

113
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:47.319
Okay.

114
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:54.000
Passed that test, and then then we played played the

115
00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:58.240
next day just me and him, which was fun. And

116
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:00.959
then you know, they said, prior to that, you sent

117
00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:02.959
me a few songs to learn and stuff like that.

118
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:07.120
And then the next day the three of us played

119
00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:10.560
and we got halfway through the first song and stopped

120
00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:11.279
and just went.

121
00:07:12.680 --> 00:07:17.600
Do you want in all right, it's nice and that

122
00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:21.560
was it. Yeah, And here I are made two thousand.

123
00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:22.680
And nine.

124
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:30.360
And here we are twenty twenty six, brand new album.

125
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:32.160
Yeah wow.

126
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:37.680
So what's it like writing music now in twenty twenty six?

127
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:39.800
Post way back?

128
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:41.279
Sorry? Say that again?

129
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:44.800
What's it like writing music now in twenty twenty six

130
00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:45.920
opposed to way back?

131
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:52.199
When writing it pretty much the same? Just comes from here.

132
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:54.519
You know, whatever you come up with. It can be

133
00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:55.120
a great.

134
00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:56.759
Idea, it can be a crap idea.

135
00:07:56.879 --> 00:07:59.000
You know, you don't know until you get together in

136
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:02.279
the room, change the things, and you know, whatever, your

137
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:06.199
original idea can start there and then somewhere completely different,

138
00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:09.360
you know, or you use parts of your idea, or

139
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:10.519
some of.

140
00:08:10.480 --> 00:08:13.199
Our ideas come from just jamming.

141
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:16.439
Will just hit record, you know, a lot of it's

142
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:18.720
just throw away and then we'll get some stuff free.

143
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:22.480
Wow to listen back, you know, listen through all this

144
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:26.160
music and we'll find parts where we can go. Let's

145
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:28.319
base a song around this, or we could use that

146
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:29.920
for a chorus or do you know what I mean?

147
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:32.240
So yes, experimenting.

148
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:39.399
Key word right there, experiment experimenting. It's all about I

149
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:43.600
think that's metal in and of itself like Venom originally

150
00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:47.559
was experimenting. There was nothing else like Venom. You know,

151
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:51.759
it's funny because black metal has become such a big

152
00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:55.200
thing now, but really there was only one black metal

153
00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:57.440
band back then and that was then.

154
00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:00.519
Now there's Shipboards.

155
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.519
Yeah right, How does that feel to be part of

156
00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:12.360
the original, like the original black metal with how black

157
00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:13.559
metal is today.

158
00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:17.039
It's quite something, really nice.

159
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:24.840
It's it's very okay, but it's.

160
00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:24.720
Cool, it's very great.

161
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:30.879
And yeah, music is a thing. You know, some bands

162
00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:33.519
keep going or split up and he leaves or that.

163
00:09:34.039 --> 00:09:37.679
This has been a real stable lineup. But you know, to.

164
00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:40.519
Be part of something that's had an album out all

165
00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:44.440
those years ago and spawned it a genre of music

166
00:09:44.559 --> 00:09:51.320
is pretty special. So yeah, and then you know Venom

167
00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:55.600
started as Welcome to Hell and that, and now.

168
00:09:55.480 --> 00:09:58.080
In twenty twenty six, you're getting kicked out of Hell.

169
00:09:58.720 --> 00:09:59.639
You're getting kicked to Yeah.

170
00:09:59.639 --> 00:10:01.919
They don't with that bad, They don't even fucking want.

171
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:05.639
I don't think we paid last month's run. I think

172
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:06.360
that's what it is.

173
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:13.039
That might be. It might be so one story, good

174
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:16.840
or bad. In all your years with Venom, what would

175
00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:19.360
you say it is? What sticks o in your mind

176
00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:22.480
most of all, good, bad, crazy, whatever.

177
00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:27.120
The first one springs to mind is the first tour,

178
00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:37.240
which was South America. It was Mexico, Columbia, Chile, Argentina,

179
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.240
and Brazil. And I remember it like it was tomorrow, tomorrow.

180
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:46.919
Like it was yesterday. And that was a great thing.

181
00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:49.960
You know, met some really cool guys who I've never

182
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:52.039
met before. He was working with us, and you know

183
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:56.120
it's the sound manlike guy and you know the security guy,

184
00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:01.360
that road crew. Yeah, it was just special sort of

185
00:11:02.200 --> 00:11:04.399
thing with it. But my first show and my first

186
00:11:04.600 --> 00:11:05.000
run of.

187
00:11:04.960 --> 00:11:09.240
Gigs, yes, that's pretty.

188
00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:13.440
Plenty of Like, well, there's too many to mention really,

189
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:17.039
you know, these ties of coming on a stage and

190
00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:20.919
low and the ship out of any fact, you know,

191
00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:24.399
all these thousands of sealed people. It's it's amazing, you know,

192
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.120
and you know they're all there to see you. It's

193
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:32.919
it's a incredible time, you know. And and then I

194
00:11:32.919 --> 00:11:38.679
would say the bad experiences, all the things that are

195
00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:43.000
sort of behind the scenes. You know, flight's being missed

196
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:45.159
and you know, having to stay in a country for

197
00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:47.039
a couple of days when you should be going home

198
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:49.799
and things like that, you know, just just stuff that's

199
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:55.799
you know, things like that, equipment, equipment breaking down. Equipment

200
00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:58.919
breaking down can be like it's both part of the fun.

201
00:11:59.080 --> 00:12:01.440
You know, you don't stay and something happens, as like

202
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:06.039
a guitar goes guitar, cab goes down, or symbols fall

203
00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:06.720
off the drunket.

204
00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.080
It's a part of that. It's so part of so

205
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:09.879
fun games.

206
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:13.399
You know, it's been able to stay.

207
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:15.039
On thin ice and being able to get to the

208
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:17.159
other side, you know what I mean. So some people

209
00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:19.960
freak out and what's happen?

210
00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:22.639
It's on fire, you know, we just take it in

211
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:25.519
Australia because we've been doing it so long, I suppose,

212
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:28.440
but yeah, you know it's a crazy old game.

213
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:29.600
We're still doing.

214
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:32.559
It here doing it And that's metal though anyway, isn't

215
00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:36.440
it metal? Metal has always been experimentation, but it's also

216
00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:40.000
that that live show that things happen. It doesn't have

217
00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:42.600
to be perfect. It shouldn't be perfect.

218
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:47.360
Oh perfect, it looks perfect, right, there's no such thing

219
00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:48.000
as perfect.

220
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:50.279
You know that it's perfect totally.

221
00:12:52.360 --> 00:12:54.799
There's a pencil, there's always a rubber on the end

222
00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:56.360
of a pencil because no one's perfect.

223
00:12:57.120 --> 00:12:59.399
There you go a pencil.

224
00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:07.120
Yeah, obviously I was listening to the radio days some

225
00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:08.039
classical music.

226
00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:10.559
Now that was perfect. And I was.

227
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:15.080
In the morning from the gig and I was just like,

228
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:18.840
listen to that. It was like, that's crystal clear. And

229
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:22.840
then afterwards the audience was like, that was the BBC

230
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.159
Philarmony Orchestra playing in the role huber Tour.

231
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:27.759
I was like, it was live.

232
00:13:29.840 --> 00:13:37.519
That's wrong, that's amazing, that is wild for sure. So

233
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:43.559
what was the spark that sparked this new album, new

234
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:47.960
recordings for the first time since twenty eighteen. You know,

235
00:13:49.039 --> 00:13:50.559
that's that's a good build up.

236
00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:57.519
Moments of setbacks. Obviously, COVID will check everybody all over

237
00:13:57.559 --> 00:14:02.879
the world. So our usual writing process of the three

238
00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:04.799
of us in a room and I you know, we've

239
00:14:04.799 --> 00:14:10.080
got our own studios place in Newcastle, and we couldn't.

240
00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:11.039
Do that, couldn't meet each other.

241
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:16.600
So it's like writing and you know, it gave it

242
00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:21.200
gave Drawing Us and Rage an opportunity to upgrade their

243
00:14:21.679 --> 00:14:25.960
home studio stuff because they got stuff at home anyway.

244
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:29.000
But you know they were buying stuff online and making

245
00:14:29.039 --> 00:14:33.559
it all Bobby Dazzler, you know type of thing, and

246
00:14:33.759 --> 00:14:37.440
so they were recording. They were experimenting as we do

247
00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:42.000
at home, and and then after those whatever seveny horrendous

248
00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:44.360
months we could get back together before they locked it

249
00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:50.200
down again. So obviously that was that was the initial issues.

250
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:54.159
And then the second one was I was I'd recorded.

251
00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:56.039
I think I've recorded the whole album.

252
00:14:56.840 --> 00:14:57.200
My bit.

253
00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:00.360
I'm always first in and to do it because then

254
00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:02.440
the drums are done and then you based the songs.

255
00:15:02.559 --> 00:15:05.120
Obviously I'm the most important, so.

256
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:10.840
The right of course, yeah, you're the foundation of course.

257
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:16.039
No, no, you know, so I've done my bit and

258
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:18.200
we're listening song and.

259
00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:21.120
It was like, what's happened. It's like, I don't know,

260
00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:29.120
it's happening again. Basically what it was like a inter liment.

261
00:15:29.240 --> 00:15:33.440
So it was basically the higher symbol, you know, the

262
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:36.000
higher spot them down that out breaking the left foot,

263
00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:39.240
the microphone, whether it was the lead that mic something

264
00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:41.000
was wrapped off and.

265
00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:45.759
Yeah, yeah, so it was unrepairable, so you know, I

266
00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:47.840
had to go and do again.

267
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:52.799
I hate when that happens to me, and that happened.

268
00:15:53.559 --> 00:15:57.879
But at the time, obviously I was like a bit good,

269
00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:01.919
but it gave to be honest. In hindsight, it made

270
00:16:01.960 --> 00:16:04.919
for a much much better album, because how'd that not

271
00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:10.919
have happened? Yes, it would have been good, but it

272
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:12.919
gave us more time to work on those songs and

273
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:15.080
we did change quite a feel from.

274
00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:17.799
Very traumatically so which did turn out for the better.

275
00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:23.759
So sometimes out out of a crap situations.

276
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:27.279
Along, I think I think it was the universe guiding

277
00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:30.759
this album to what it is. Has to finish product

278
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:31.600
eight long years.

279
00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:34.279
But you know, all good things come to those who work.

280
00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:37.360
There you go, and it is great.

281
00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:40.320
And I've been waiting for four fifty years.

282
00:16:45.559 --> 00:16:48.919
There you go. Well, man, it's a great album. Everybody

283
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:52.519
else check it out. They can. Also there's some cool

284
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:56.799
packages that they can get, like a double gatefold smoking line.

285
00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:57.679
Different vinyl.

286
00:16:57.720 --> 00:17:02.360
It's a black, two different colors, and then there's the

287
00:17:02.639 --> 00:17:04.519
limited some red splatter.

288
00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:06.200
The contains blood.

289
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:13.079
Yeah nice, but yeah it's on CD and probably cassette

290
00:17:13.119 --> 00:17:13.400
as well.

291
00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:16.240
But funnily enough, I remember a few years ago on

292
00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:19.599
the last album and it may have been kicked one

293
00:17:19.720 --> 00:17:20.640
hundred miles.

294
00:17:20.400 --> 00:17:26.279
To help hundred that single, you know, years ago, and

295
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:29.599
in my room, yeah, the label's being touched getting.

296
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:33.000
On cassette And did I said, did you just say cassettes.

297
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:36.720
I'm like, oh, it's going to buy that. You be

298
00:17:36.799 --> 00:17:43.160
surprised dances honestly Chinese American. I'm like, wow, okay, I

299
00:17:43.240 --> 00:17:44.559
since I've still got to take place.

300
00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:48.279
I was somebody to make an eight track.

301
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:51.440
Yeah, I think we should have good at eight track

302
00:17:51.799 --> 00:17:54.279
or seventy eight that would.

303
00:17:54.119 --> 00:17:58.640
Be good too. I actually had Blizzard of Oz I

304
00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:02.480
got on the track. I got that on eight tracks.

305
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:04.359
But what you used to put in your car, the

306
00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:05.200
eight track things?

307
00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:07.480
Yeah, well I had it in my house because I

308
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:11.039
was a kid. You know, it was nineteen eighty. What

309
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:12.240
was I like, thirteen?

310
00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:16.519
It was came out without nineteen eighty when it came out.

311
00:18:16.759 --> 00:18:18.480
It came out in nineteen.

312
00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:21.400
Eighty, right record.

313
00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:24.240
And you had to stick we had those little match

314
00:18:24.319 --> 00:18:26.759
books you had to stick under the eight track to

315
00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:29.319
make sure it went at the right speed. Otherwise it

316
00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:37.720
would be like and then mister Crowley would split up

317
00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:44.640
between track two and track three, so it would fade out. Yeah,

318
00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:49.079
it would fade out, and then it would switch over

319
00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:52.839
