00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:40,319
and half the bass. Okay,
So so on the record, so well,

13
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,199
so how does that work live?
Then? Oh? It's pretty cool.

14
00:03:44,199 --> 00:03:47,360
We use a splitter aby wise splitters
and really yeah, it really drives

15
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,479
it home, no kidding. Yeah. People keep coming up and asking us

16
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:53,479
too, They're like, how are
you doing this? You had no bass

17
00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:54,879
player, there's a there's a I'm
like, no, we're bass players.

18
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,840
We're all we're both bass players,
and they're like the low ends there.

19
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,479
Yeah, they just they they are
like where is he? And uh yeah,

20
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:08,479
but it works. That's incredible.
I've never heard of anyone doing that

21
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,400
before. Yeah, do you know
if anyone else who does it that way?

22
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:17,240
I've never Royal Blooded yet, Connectic
Jetty really yeah, they'll be fans

23
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,040
out there that never would have even
occurred to me. But that's that's brilliant.

24
00:04:20,879 --> 00:04:25,079
That's really cool. I think the
most famous fan that did it was

25
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:30,360
I think local h Yeah, that's
that's true. Okay, I forgot about

26
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,279
that. Yeah, yeah, that's
true. Wow, that's cool though.

27
00:04:33,319 --> 00:04:35,800
All right. Yeah, well it
seems to work. Huh yeah, we

28
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,480
definitely so. So in studio what
do you what do you just? How

29
00:04:40,519 --> 00:04:43,680
does it work in studio? In
studio we had it, we had a

30
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,120
bass play. Yeah, we had
a bas player okay, gotcha, but

31
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,079
not like an official member officially,
it's just the three of you. Yeah,

32
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,120
it's just the three of us here, okay, okay. And we

33
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:56,279
were kind of talking off air two
about I opened with a mental note,

34
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,160
it's just such an epic song and
what is it about? Eleven and a

35
00:05:00,199 --> 00:05:02,000
half minutes, eleven and a half
minutes, but it's so like we were

36
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,439
talking off air, it goes by
quickly. It doesn't feel like it's that

37
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:10,360
long, right, And the response
in the chat room was very positive.

38
00:05:10,399 --> 00:05:14,959
People were really digging it so so
really well, I think, like like

39
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,079
you two guys too, We've I've
listened to the album probably four times today,

40
00:05:18,399 --> 00:05:23,319
really yeah, just and I always
thought like too long, but then

41
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,600
I'm listening to it, it's like, wow, that kind of yeah,

42
00:05:25,639 --> 00:05:29,160
before you know it's over, Yeah, yeah, because it just it pulls

43
00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:32,720
you in and you get so in
tune to it that next thing you know

44
00:05:32,879 --> 00:05:35,079
is, oh, the song's over, Like oh my god, I can't

45
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,639
believe it's been twelve minutes, but
yeah, eleven and a half minutes or

46
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:43,000
whatever it is. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And I feel like all

47
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,720
these songs have kind of an uh, I mean, mental note probably because

48
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,600
it's so long. It's particularly epic
was the word I used. And I

49
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,360
think one of you had said that. That was the second second time today.

50
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,319
That's someone had said that to us. Yeah. Yeah, but all

51
00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,480
the songs, I feel like have
kind of a big sound we're going for.

52
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,439
We want to be Loud We want
to be like like our description usually

53
00:06:03,519 --> 00:06:05,839
is, we try to be a
wall of sound. Yep, yeah,

54
00:06:06,199 --> 00:06:11,319
that's what we want. Oh,
that's funny. I was talking to yesterday.

55
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,279
We had on a guest Mike Laughlin, who's I don't know if you

56
00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:16,279
guys know, I'm very, very
talented singer songwriter. He does kind of

57
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,439
mostly displays by himself acoustic. But
we were talking about that how how important

58
00:06:20,439 --> 00:06:24,639
it is, especially with a live
show, to have that wall of sound.

59
00:06:26,519 --> 00:06:29,839
I love being swallowed up in it. Yes, yes, exactly,

60
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,480
exactly. And this just came out
today, right arrival of the waves of

61
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:38,959
the new albums today. Yep,
where do you guys record this? Woman?

62
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:44,120
Recorded in Jaffrey at Loudsun Studio.
Okay, we did the recording and

63
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,279
mixing there with Ben Rogers. Guys. Excellent. This is the second time

64
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,560
we had recorded an album with him, and then we had it mastered here

65
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:57,279
in Manchester at black Heart Sound.
Okay, that's yes, that's the name.

66
00:06:57,319 --> 00:07:00,839
I hear a lot of these tremendous
job. Absolutely everything I've heard is

67
00:07:00,879 --> 00:07:03,759
positive, both in terms of hearing
people talking about him and when I've literally

68
00:07:03,759 --> 00:07:06,120
heard on the show. It seems
like, we've had a bunch of artists

69
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:11,000
on who who've hyeah, he's worked
with ata. I gotta get him on

70
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,079
the show. Yeah, yeah,
definitely a couple bands. Yeah, pretty

71
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,319
good, well, incredible, very
talented guitar player. What what bands is

72
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:23,079
he in? Do you no?
Offhand? Magnetarnet Crown Visions. He does

73
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,120
one with his girlfriend and it's it's
oh, no kidding, it's uh,

74
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,959
I'm familiar with magnetar. Yeah,
yeah, I gotta yeah, I definitely

75
00:07:29,959 --> 00:07:31,439
have to get him on that.
I didn't realize. I didn't realize that

76
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:38,160
was him in that band. So
this, uh so, what what went

77
00:07:38,199 --> 00:07:42,160
into the decision to do I mean, it's yeah, it's it's a it's

78
00:07:42,199 --> 00:07:45,319
an album nine tracks. What went
into the decision to do a full album?

79
00:07:45,399 --> 00:07:47,519
Because obviously we live in an era. I mean, we're all old

80
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,399
enough to remember when it was,
you know, either make an album or

81
00:07:50,439 --> 00:07:55,279
maybe an EP. But most bands
make albums right back in the day,

82
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:59,240
and now we live in a time
when you can kind of do it.

83
00:07:59,399 --> 00:08:01,439
There's many different ways to do it. You can make an album, you

84
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,079
can make an EP, you can
just release a bunch of singles. Maybe

85
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,040
you release a single once a month
and eventually it makes an album. What

86
00:08:07,319 --> 00:08:09,480
went into the decision to do a
full album? I have a reputation of

87
00:08:09,519 --> 00:08:18,079
pooping songs out. Yeah, so
we have a bunch. Yeah, And

88
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,439
I knew when you were looking at
me that that's what you were thinking too.

89
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,160
Well. I was thinking, can
we say poop on the radio?

90
00:08:22,279 --> 00:08:28,839
Yeah? Yes you can, yes, yes, pop. So yeah,

91
00:08:28,879 --> 00:08:35,200
we had them and and we're pretty
tight. We practice, you know,

92
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,840
regularly, so going into the studio, we crack these all out in less

93
00:08:39,879 --> 00:08:43,120
than two full days. We're able
to get everything recorded. Yeah. So

94
00:08:43,399 --> 00:08:46,919
yeah, we went and prepared,
so we were like, let's just do

95
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,159
it. Let's gets to be honest, I'm sure we would have been able

96
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,960
to decide which songs to put on
the album what's not So it worked out

97
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,399
very well. Is there also an
advantage to doing it? I mean,

98
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,440
obviously when you're doing it quickly,
like the pressure is on. But at

99
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,720
the same time, I would imagine
you you are able to capture some degree

100
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,919
of spontaneity when you're not doing it
over and over again. Yeah, you

101
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,879
know, yeah, totally. Well. Mental note particularly that's that song is

102
00:09:15,639 --> 00:09:18,200
It's a different song every time we
play We did that on one take,

103
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,480
no kidding, one take on I
think everything was one take. Yeah,

104
00:09:22,519 --> 00:09:26,759
pretty much about but we took a
month off of gigging and just practiced over

105
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,000
and over and over, so,
you know, because we're kind of cheap

106
00:09:30,039 --> 00:09:33,960
and we didn't want to waste money
in the stud. Yeah. Oh that's

107
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:39,960
another that's another good reason to to
get it done quickly. Adam put it

108
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,799
good. We were well prepared to
do that, so yeah, we went

109
00:09:41,879 --> 00:09:46,039
in with the with the with an
agenda, and we completed it. Yeah,

110
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,639
and mental note you said, mental
notes kind of different every time you

111
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,000
play it. Yeah, it's it's
a jam like you jam it, so

112
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:58,240
it's it's We were nervous to record
it only because we wanted to capture the

113
00:09:58,279 --> 00:10:01,600
feeling that we normally have with it. But it's always different. So we

114
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,120
were just like, all right,
let's just go in and do it.

115
00:10:03,159 --> 00:10:03,960
If it works, it works.
If it doesn't, it doesn't. And

116
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,519
we were just like as soon as
we were done. Normally, I don't

117
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,720
know how long we usually play that
song for. It's a different length every

118
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,480
time we stopped and we asked Ben
when we recorded it, We're like,

119
00:10:15,519 --> 00:10:18,120
how long was that one? And
he's like eleven and a half minutes.

120
00:10:18,159 --> 00:10:22,399
We're all jaws all dropped. We're
like, yeah, it was it was

121
00:10:22,639 --> 00:10:26,120
we thought we were playing for like
six or seven though, it was gonna

122
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,399
be like seven seventy eight minutes.
Yeah. Oh that's funny. Oh that's

123
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,080
cool. And so so you didn't
even have any time in mind. You

124
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,840
just kind of just when it was
done, and when it was done,

125
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,279
it was done. Yeah that's cool. Yeah, because that's the only really

126
00:10:37,279 --> 00:10:39,720
long one. The rest of the
tracks are all, you know, three

127
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,519
four minutes for the average length song. Yeah. Yeah, I mean our

128
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,960
first EP had a had a nine
and nine and a half minute song,

129
00:10:48,159 --> 00:10:50,000
Fire on the Hillside, so real. Yeah, So it was kind of

130
00:10:50,159 --> 00:10:52,360
I thought it was kind of cool
to come back with this album and do

131
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,960
another finale if you if you would, Yeah, yeah. Has the sound

132
00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:01,639
Did the sound change at all between
album progress? Yeah, we got a

133
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,720
lot more psychedelic. We kept the
heavy, but the heavy feels heavier.

134
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,639
That's good. Yeah, yeah,
very cool. We've got able blood here

135
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:15,159
with us in studio with Ronda Fervero
from California is in the Facebook live chat

136
00:11:15,159 --> 00:11:18,360
and said wall of sound, a
phrase coined by phil Specter. Indeed,

137
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,080
I didn't know that. I didn't
know that's where the term came from.

138
00:11:22,159 --> 00:11:26,200
Yeah, very cool. Uh,
speaking of where things come from, where

139
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:31,639
does the name come from? Able
Blood? So we're Jimmy and I grew

140
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:39,200
up in the Brookline Hollis area and
there's a cemetery on the Nashua and Holliess

141
00:11:39,279 --> 00:11:46,360
Line Pineal Cemetery and it's famous for
having being probably the most haunted cemetery in

142
00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:50,879
New Hampshire, and it's haunted by
the spirit of able Blood. Okay,

143
00:11:50,919 --> 00:11:54,720
Yeah. There was actually a finger
on his gravestone and when kids would go

144
00:11:54,759 --> 00:11:58,320
there at night, the finger would
be pointing up during the day and at

145
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,200
night a lot of people would say
that the thinker would be pointing down towards

146
00:12:01,279 --> 00:12:03,919
the ground. If you go online
and look it up, there's a whole

147
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,759
Oh yeah, it's Weatherby did a
story on him real Yeah. Yeah.

148
00:12:07,879 --> 00:12:11,240
Do you ever go there? Yeah? Yeah, you've all you've a well.

149
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,720
Thirty years ago, Jimmy and I
were in a band together and we

150
00:12:13,799 --> 00:12:18,600
used to jam on the property that
bordered the cemetery, No kidding. Yeah,

151
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:26,440
do you ever see anything or hear
anything or cool? Yeah? And

152
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,240
you know, the headstone's been vandalized. And yeah, I think they've actually

153
00:12:30,279 --> 00:12:33,360
taken the headstone out. Oh yeah, I think it's that it's at the

154
00:12:33,399 --> 00:12:37,480
Holest police department. I believe that's
how the story goes. Oh wow,

155
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,000
yeah, interesting, it's an interesting
story looking up sometimes. Yeah. Yeah,

156
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,759
we should all get arrested so we
can take a picture with the headstone.

157
00:12:43,039 --> 00:12:46,600
There we go. That would be
very very rock and roll. That

158
00:12:46,639 --> 00:12:52,360
would be so metal. I originally
thought before he joined the band that it

159
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:56,159
was a biblical rafflers to us.
That's what I vengeance from the earth.

160
00:12:56,399 --> 00:13:01,200
Yeah, this is just as cool. Yeah Blood was actually a person.

161
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,039
Yeah yeah, that is pretty cool. And what a badass name to have,

162
00:13:05,519 --> 00:13:09,000
Able Blood. If if able Blood
were alive today, he wouldn't no

163
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:16,240
doubt he'd be proud be playing and
be playing in a metal band. You

164
00:13:16,279 --> 00:13:18,240
would have to Yeah, I don't
know. I see him as like a

165
00:13:18,279 --> 00:13:24,200
Polka kid. Yeah yeah, there
you go, perfect play. Yeah,

166
00:13:24,519 --> 00:13:30,200
bring it together and and the album
is called Arrival of the Waves. Oh

167
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,879
and by the way, I should
hold up for for people watching online.

168
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:39,240
I'll hold it up so the to
the camera. There you can see it.

169
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,799
Very cool. Artwork. Yeah,
you were telling me about how the

170
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,480
how the artwork came about. Actually, Malcolm would be much better to explain.

171
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,440
Yeah, yeah, how did you
uh, how did you come about

172
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,120
this? Uh this out this outwork
artwork? I do a lot. I

173
00:13:54,159 --> 00:13:58,399
started playing with AI art Generation,
Yeah, and I would, uh,

174
00:13:58,799 --> 00:14:03,000
I'd create images and then kind of
tweak them in Photoshop and yeah, I

175
00:14:03,039 --> 00:14:09,039
got really into a Polish artist,
bec Synski, and it's really it's disturbing

176
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,480
stuff, but it's it's it's really
neat art. So yeah, I try

177
00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:16,720
to do stuff in his style.
So that's yeah, that's like I always

178
00:14:16,759 --> 00:14:20,639
wanted to draw our paint and I
never really could, so yeah, the

179
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,399
AI kind of Yeah. So when
you're when you're coming up with these,

180
00:14:24,639 --> 00:14:28,159
do you go into the generator and
then I know a little bit about it,

181
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:35,679
So do you do you type in
a prompt like imagine, I don't

182
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,000
know what you would type in for
prompts to get these images, to be

183
00:14:37,039 --> 00:14:41,240
honest with. The cover is Arrival
of the Waves. I typed in Arrival

184
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,919
of the Waves, put in a
couple of operators that got me the style

185
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,320
and colors that I wanted. That's
kind of smoothed it. And yeah,

186
00:14:48,759 --> 00:14:52,639
that's cool because it's you know,
in a way, it's not what I

187
00:14:52,679 --> 00:14:58,919
would expect with that prompt, if
that makes sense. Were you surprised at

188
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,759
the image it generated. I'm constantly
surprised at some of the things that generates.

189
00:15:03,799 --> 00:15:07,440
I'll do like experiments where I will
I'll pick an album and I'll take

190
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,879
every every song title, yeah,
and just do an art prompt on that,

191
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,960
kidding, and it gets some pretty
cool stuff. And I've actually started

192
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:18,120
writing, you know, poetry and
lyrics based on the photos I get back.

193
00:15:18,279 --> 00:15:20,480
Oh, no, kidding. Artwork
it generates because it doesn't always it's

194
00:15:20,519 --> 00:15:24,919
not like a one to one you
know, matchup as far as you know

195
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,240
what you put in and what you
get out, So it always spits out

196
00:15:28,279 --> 00:15:31,879
something kind of neat that that,
you know, sometimes sparks something in me.

197
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,360
Yeah, so next album, yeah, and then and then so all

198
00:15:35,399 --> 00:15:37,799
the images in the artwork, they
were all done that way. Yes,

199
00:15:39,559 --> 00:15:43,320
all right, I have to ask
you so And unfortunately, well I'll hold

200
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,039
it up for the camera again for
people watching on video people listening won't know.

201
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:52,720
But I am very curious what prompt
generated that. I think that prompt

202
00:15:52,759 --> 00:15:56,519
was keeping Pace with the Elephants,
which is the name of the Oh,

203
00:15:56,879 --> 00:16:00,000
yes, okay, I see it
now. I didn't even see it at

204
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,039
first looking at it. That's why
I looks like an elephant with palettes on

205
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:08,039
it. Yeah, yeah, but
no, but it's cool. It's a

206
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:14,120
cool I didn't know what I was
looking at. That's why I was so

207
00:16:14,159 --> 00:16:17,159
curious about it. But it looked
interesting. But that makes sense now I

208
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,840
see it. And I loved on
the cover of the little I don't know

209
00:16:18,879 --> 00:16:22,919
if you want to call it a
being, but whatever that little being is,

210
00:16:22,039 --> 00:16:25,320
I think that's awesome. I love
I've always loved that. Yeah,

211
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,759
I'll hold it up again for the
camera. It's and people can, obviously,

212
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,480
you know, go online, go
on band camp and you'll you'll find

213
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:37,240
it. But I think that yeah, And I think that's why I said

214
00:16:37,919 --> 00:16:41,159
for that prompt, I wouldn't have
expected necessarily this image because like I would

215
00:16:41,159 --> 00:16:45,360
expect that being to be a surfer, but that's not a surfer. It's

216
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,559
it's just interesting. It's fascinating me. But it used a lot to the

217
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,120
imagine. Yeah, which is cool. Yeah, yeah, oh we should

218
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:57,279
mention two Adam you it's funny and
and this has happened to me before.

219
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:03,200
It it's inevitable. But when you
guys got here, I think the first

220
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:04,400
thing you said to me was we
had met before. Yeah, yeah,

221
00:17:04,559 --> 00:17:08,279
and it was like thirteen years ago. You were in the band Buck fifty

222
00:17:08,319 --> 00:17:11,559
five. Yes, and that and
that's still online. People can still go

223
00:17:11,559 --> 00:17:17,759
on. Yeah, it's on a
reverb nation. Whatever happened to that band

224
00:17:17,799 --> 00:17:21,599
anyway? Well, we lived far
apart. Yeah, so yeah, it

225
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,880
was it was harder and harder to
get to practice. Yeah, you know,

226
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,839
we're still friends. Actually saw him
two weeks ago. Oh good.

227
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,400
Yeah, yeah, we still see
each other all the time. Yeah,

228
00:17:30,599 --> 00:17:33,000
very cool. Excellent, excellent,
Well let's psalm. Let's do this.

229
00:17:33,079 --> 00:17:37,720
Let's play another track from the new
album just out today, Arrival of the

230
00:17:37,759 --> 00:17:41,880
Waves from able Blood and what would
you guys? I'll let you guys pick

231
00:17:41,759 --> 00:17:45,599
what would you like? Lection?
Yeah, let's do a reflection, all

232
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,519
right, anything you want us to
know about this song before we before we

233
00:17:48,559 --> 00:17:53,480
play the song's a trip that are
probably our most psychedelic songs the album,

234
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,640
okay, and probably the quick We
wrote this literally in minutes, yeah really,

235
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,799
yeah, the whole thing came together, Yeah, within within twenty minutes.

236
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:04,640
Yeah, we had all the parts
written out. Oh no kidding,

237
00:18:04,799 --> 00:18:07,559
ready to go? Yeah, okay, all right, very cool. Let's

238
00:18:07,599 --> 00:22:38,519
check this out. This is Reflections, brand new from able Blood. That's

239
00:22:38,559 --> 00:22:44,359
a cool instrumental. That is Reflections. The band is able Blood. We've

240
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:48,119
got the guys in studio with us, and we've been talking and we're gonna

241
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,119
talk some more. But we've got
the guys from able Blood here in studio

242
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,759
with us. Do you guys play
out a lot? You playing a lot

243
00:22:53,799 --> 00:22:56,480
of shows? Quite a bit?
Yeah, quite a bit. We go

244
00:22:56,599 --> 00:23:00,400
play on Saturday night. We're gonna
be up in Maine at Charlie Hill.

245
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,880
Yeah, playing with your friends Crooked
Cash. Yes, I said hi by

246
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,799
the way, Yes, yes,
Yeah. We had those guys on a

247
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,119
number of months ago and they're coming
back soon. Yeah. Really really good,

248
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,319
Jenny said in the chat room.
I really love this music. Yeah,

249
00:23:14,519 --> 00:23:18,599
than Jenny, Thank you, Jenny, Absolutely really good stuff. When

250
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,400
you guys, you mentioned a song
like mental Note, it kind of changes

251
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,920
every time you play what about what
about the other songs? Do any of

252
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,359
the other songs change or is it
really just Mental Note? Because it's such

253
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,559
a jam. I think my solos
kind of change here and there. I

254
00:23:33,599 --> 00:23:37,200
don't like. I don't memorize any
of them. So the solos might change

255
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:44,000
a little bit, but the meat
and bones of the songs stay pretty close

256
00:23:44,079 --> 00:23:47,640
to the same every time. Yeah, I might have a little bit different

257
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:51,200
tone if I've thrown my my pedal
board bag around a little bit, and

258
00:23:51,279 --> 00:23:53,759
some of the knobs might be turned, so he might sound a little different

259
00:23:53,799 --> 00:23:59,920
tonally, But otherwise we've made the
mistake when we do a mental note live,

260
00:24:00,319 --> 00:24:03,359
like it's all the pedals and we
just crank them all the show and

261
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,319
just you know, another wall of
sound, and I've made the mistake of

262
00:24:07,839 --> 00:24:11,519
you know, not touching my board
after a show mental note. The next

263
00:24:11,599 --> 00:24:17,839
night I go to sound check,
I crank every knob on my delay pedal,

264
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,839
and the next time I go to
play, everything will be going when

265
00:24:21,839 --> 00:24:25,079
I turn it back on the next
day. What it is matters is we

266
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:29,000
kept the song in the exact same
way that we created it. We created

267
00:24:29,039 --> 00:24:33,440
it with no boundary. We I
think that jam Adam just started playing the

268
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,640
beginning part. I came in on
drums, Malcolm came in on guitar,

269
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:41,119
and it just ended up jamming it
for a huge length of time. We

270
00:24:41,839 --> 00:24:45,400
because we've been playing together for a
while, we kind of know what each

271
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,880
other do. And the song came
to an end, We're like, oh

272
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,880
my god, we gotta record that. I also think Malcolm and I had

273
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:59,400
just gone to see Godspeed You Black
Emperor not long before that very noise rocky

274
00:24:59,599 --> 00:25:03,039
who would sound. Yeah, yeah, so we had just seen them.

275
00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:07,599
They were very noise rocky sound you
know. So so everybody we really inspired

276
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,759
after We did it the same way. We just jammed it and ended it

277
00:25:11,799 --> 00:25:15,400
when we felt that it was time
to end the song. Yeah, And

278
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,799
it held that way all the way
through going in the studio and recording the

279
00:25:18,799 --> 00:25:22,359
album. We did it the same, the same way. We've recorded everything

280
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,359
live except for the vocals, so
we were able to just literally jam these

281
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,200
tunes. Oh wow. Yeah,
have you guys been together a long time?

282
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,880
How long has this band been around? Jimmy and I have been jamming

283
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,400
while pre Pandemic. We were actually
in a band about thirty years ago together,

284
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,359
a band called No Thanks. We're
like a y metal band. Yeah

285
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,839
yeah, early nineties, and then
took a long, long, long break.

286
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:52,000
But we started doing this again probably
in twenty twenty nineteen. We took

287
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,440
a break at the beginning of the
pandemic for a little while, just until

288
00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,359
we could figure out what was going
on. And then after that we got

289
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,559
together and Jimmy and I have been
like the constant. We've had members come

290
00:26:03,599 --> 00:26:08,880
and go yeah, and then Malcolm
has been with us for who's never hearing,

291
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:11,480
Who's never gonna go. We're not
gonna allow We're gonna break his leg.

292
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:17,680
He's gonna be the first one that
we don't allow to get that.

293
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,759
So it's kind of settled into this
is what we are now. Yeah,

294
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,200
very cool. You big Spinal Tap
guy? Oh I love that movie.

295
00:26:26,599 --> 00:26:30,519
Anything those guys touch, yeah,
yeah, goes to eleven. Yeah.

296
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,480
The other show that I'm on on
Fridays hosted by Police. We always kind

297
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,559
of break his balls because he's never
seen Spinal Tap. See that's one of

298
00:26:40,599 --> 00:26:42,359
those and he would love it,
and we're always telling him, dude,

299
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:47,920
you'd love it. I'm I have
a reputation of never seen having seen a

300
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,920
film, and I've seen it.
Yeah, I've actually seen six movies.

301
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,160
I would love to watch Spinal Tap
for the first time again. Yeah.

302
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,200
Yeah, that's something though. You
may have to suspend that friendship so that

303
00:26:57,559 --> 00:27:00,720
I know that connection is may I
know it's like, you know, not

304
00:27:00,839 --> 00:27:04,799
grounding an amp or something like that. Something bad's gonna happen. Yeah,

305
00:27:04,799 --> 00:27:11,160
he's he's also never seen Purple Rain
and that one. I've never seen Purple

306
00:27:11,599 --> 00:27:17,279
You've never seen? Wow? I
love the album. Yeah, but no,

307
00:27:17,559 --> 00:27:19,000
I've never watched the movie. Oh, you gotta see it. A

308
00:27:19,039 --> 00:27:22,119
prince is acting as pen No,
I'm kidding. Actually he's not that great,

309
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,640
but much better musician than an actor. No, but the film,

310
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,279
it is an incredible film. You
should see it. Even like Morris Day

311
00:27:30,319 --> 00:27:33,839
at the time, seeing those guys
perform live, Oh yeah, crap.

312
00:27:33,039 --> 00:27:36,880
Yeah, yeah, that band was
full of talent. I wish I had

313
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,480
seen them live, Like, yeah, me too, me too, Yeah,

314
00:27:40,519 --> 00:27:42,799
I would have loved that. Well, I guess technically they're still I

315
00:27:42,799 --> 00:27:47,200
think. I think they still tour
more day. I think, yeah,

316
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:48,319
I think they just call it Morris
Day or something. They don't have to

317
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,880
call it Morris Day in the time
anymore. But I think it's essentially the

318
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,960
same band, which have a different
name that they go by now. Rona

319
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,039
Ferverro in the chat room, our
friend from California. She says the guitar

320
00:27:59,079 --> 00:28:03,240
work in that last song, Reflections
had a really cool Robin Trauer vibe.

321
00:28:03,519 --> 00:28:06,920
Oh, gridge of Size is one
of my favorite tunes, and that's the

322
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:12,720
sound I was going for with the
Oh I'm gonna freaking cry scaled it.

323
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:17,599
Well done, Rhanda, well done. Yeah. Yeah, you guys were

324
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:19,680
kind of talking off air too while
the song was planned that it's been a

325
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,920
good day in terms of the response
to the good feedback. Yeah, absolutely,

326
00:28:25,519 --> 00:28:29,319
Any anything in terms of feedback that's
really kind of surprised you, Like,

327
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:33,759
oh, I wasn't expecting someone to
well, people other than people were

328
00:28:33,799 --> 00:28:38,640
friends with were related to liking it
surprises me. Yeah. I had a

329
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,839
plant manager at my company out of
the Blue asked me for a copy the

330
00:28:41,839 --> 00:28:45,960
other day, and he sent me
an album review this morning, really and

331
00:28:47,799 --> 00:28:52,680
he used epic and hypnotic for mental
note. Oh, And I was like

332
00:28:52,039 --> 00:28:56,799
just blown away that this guy actually
took the time, you know, out

333
00:28:56,799 --> 00:28:59,480
of his day, and he was
like, after the third time I've listened

334
00:28:59,519 --> 00:29:02,559
to it twenty four hours, I'm
like, are you kidding me? So

335
00:29:02,759 --> 00:29:06,119
it was funny that we actually got
somebody to listen to this album more than

336
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,559
once in that short of a time. Yeah, Oh that's really cool.

337
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,960
And with mental note, anytime,
you know, you have eleven and a

338
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:15,200
half second song, you wonder how
that's going to be received some people,

339
00:29:15,559 --> 00:29:19,480
And so far it almost seems like
it's the favorite on the album. So

340
00:29:19,519 --> 00:29:22,519
far, so good. Yeah,
from the feedback that I've gotten anyway.

341
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,039
Yeah, you know though, like
all these songs are cool, but mental

342
00:29:26,119 --> 00:29:27,880
note is is you know, it's
like, all right, so an eleven

343
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,559
and a half song was well received, that's good. Yeah, yeah,

344
00:29:32,039 --> 00:29:33,720
yeah, you just never know.
I mean that's part of the adventure of

345
00:29:33,759 --> 00:29:37,440
it in a sense, right,
Yeah, but uh yeah, that's that's

346
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,799
really cool. Do you do you
play any of the older songs live?

347
00:29:42,119 --> 00:29:48,720
Still? We do a lot lately. We've been doing two songs off the

348
00:29:48,759 --> 00:29:52,160
album. We remember promoting the new
album, you know, for quite a

349
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:56,359
few months now, like yeah,
mostly new stuff, but they're going to

350
00:29:56,599 --> 00:30:00,599
end up making most of the songs
will end up making the way back into

351
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,240
the rotation. I'm looking at I'm
looking back at it. These songs are

352
00:30:04,279 --> 00:30:10,440
really viable songs, and they're really
good. I think I could have gone

353
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:15,079
back and nit picked them a little
bit more on the recordings Yeah, but

354
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,240
they're good songs and they we do
rotate them in. We do rotate them

355
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,079
in. Yeah, And the EP
was very well received. It was well

356
00:30:22,119 --> 00:30:26,400
received. Yeah. Yeah. And
on this new album, the bonus track

357
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:30,759
at the end is the title track
off our first EP, Keeping Pace with

358
00:30:30,759 --> 00:30:33,920
the Elephants. Oh. That's why
it's called slight, Return and Return because

359
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,039
we do it differently on this album, because this one we do a stripped

360
00:30:37,039 --> 00:30:41,039
down acoustic version and I play on
a Cohne rather than a drum set.

361
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,759
Yeah, it came out and it
still sounds really heavy, really great about

362
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:51,039
Ben Like the drum sound he got
out of that cane was unreal. Yeah,

363
00:30:51,559 --> 00:30:53,920
and it ties Malcolm into the first
album because he wasn't around for the

364
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:59,359
first album, so it kind of
brings him back to it. So because

365
00:30:59,359 --> 00:31:02,680
of that, we play Keeping Pace
with the Elephants live a lot right now

366
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,359
because it is a song that's on
the album, and if if people haven't

367
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,559
heard the first album, they hear
that song and then they go back and

368
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,279
they you know, investigate that we
have another album, and they listen to

369
00:31:12,279 --> 00:31:15,039
them. They just Keeping Pace with
the Elephants again and then they hear the

370
00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:18,759
full band version. That's you know, full on distortion everything, and it's

371
00:31:18,839 --> 00:31:21,559
you know, we thought it would
kind of be a neat little thing to

372
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:25,680
do. Yeah. Yeah, plus
Adam and I and Malcolm, we'll do

373
00:31:26,079 --> 00:31:30,079
open mics some nights, doing stripped
down versions of our songs, kind of

374
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,880
kind of how that was born too. Yeah, absolutely, yeah, Yeah,

375
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,000
we'll pick an open mic every once
in a while, and yeah,

376
00:31:34,079 --> 00:31:37,920
we'll just show it as a band. Yeah. Oh wow, I'll just

377
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,000
do it. Oh, very cool. It's cool to have that kind of

378
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:45,480
flexibility to do that. Yeah.
I wrote everything that we've recorded on an

379
00:31:45,519 --> 00:31:49,839
acoustic guitar. Oh yeah, pretty
pretty. So they translate quite well.

380
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,920
Yeah. Yeah. You ever have
anything that doesn't translate that you write it

381
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,599
on the acoustic and then you go, I don't know if this works plugged

382
00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,400
in. We haven't come across the
thin. Yeah, he's brought stuff to

383
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:02,799
us that I've been like, you
know, I don't know if that'll work

384
00:32:02,839 --> 00:32:07,319
with distortion. This will be a
melaw song. Yeah. We kicked the

385
00:32:07,319 --> 00:32:12,279
pedals and it's like that sounds good. I want to hear it distorted like

386
00:32:12,359 --> 00:32:15,200
really, like, yeah, kept
them past work that way. It was

387
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,680
an acoustic song and Jimmy's like,
I want the fuzz pedal on on that,

388
00:32:17,759 --> 00:32:20,759
and we did it, and we
were like, whoa, all right,

389
00:32:20,839 --> 00:32:22,759
let's do it. It was the
last song I thought we were gonna

390
00:32:22,799 --> 00:32:27,480
put fuzz on. I think it
was, Keith Richards said in an interview

391
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,640
once though. If it doesn't work
with just an acoustic guitar, right,

392
00:32:30,799 --> 00:32:35,160
it's you know, yeah, right
right, Well we should Uh yeah,

393
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,519
we got time, why don't we? Uh you want to give that one

394
00:32:37,519 --> 00:32:39,920
to listen? Kept them past because
I think you had said you were that

395
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,400
was the original single, right that
you were kind of using. Yeah,

396
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,279
yeah, yeah, let's let's give
this one a spin. All right,

397
00:32:45,319 --> 00:32:51,079
this is kept Uh, I'm sorry. I kept them past from Able Blood

398
00:32:51,119 --> 00:32:54,359
and the brand new album out today, Arrival of the Waves. Check this

399
00:32:54,480 --> 00:33:15,839
out. I would see him for
a while. It's like a knight that

400
00:33:16,279 --> 00:33:45,319
never ends. Appreciate the final things
for the Dolls, got a blue Ones

401
00:33:45,440 --> 00:34:32,239
and alone, spaced for a kid
a little while, A little wine would

402
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:40,280
you put down on the gas?
Tiny missed up, Pony to one from

403
00:34:40,519 --> 00:35:32,199
the water Only carry came an hour
for Our Pass, Kept them passed by

404
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:37,239
Able Blood from the brand new album
Arrival of the waves. We've got these

405
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,280
guys in studio with us, and
uh, you guys, uh you go

406
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:45,519
for those long uh the you know, the decay with the feedback a lot

407
00:35:45,079 --> 00:35:47,880
of Yeah. I like that.
I like that a lot. Yeah.

408
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,960
I think that's part of what gives
it that epic quality. It doesn't seem

409
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:54,119
like a lot of bands really do
that anymore. I mean, that's probably

410
00:35:54,119 --> 00:35:57,599
more than I realized. But I
don't know, I feel like it's been

411
00:35:57,599 --> 00:35:59,920
a while since I've kind of heard
that ending to a song. You know,

412
00:36:00,559 --> 00:36:05,159
I'm too lazy to figure anything else
out. I just hit that last

413
00:36:05,199 --> 00:36:07,960
note and let it ring. Yeah, yeah, it works, It works.

414
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,000
It's bringing me back to spinal tap. You can just hit that,

415
00:36:10,039 --> 00:36:14,159
go out and have a fight,
right right, it's just sustained. Yes,

416
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,000
don't touch that. Use that time
to put your pedals back to where

417
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:22,320
they belong. Right now, what
do you guys have coming up? As

418
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:27,440
far as you got any shows this
weekend? You must be playing somewhere September.

419
00:36:27,519 --> 00:36:30,280
Yeah, this Saturday night, we're
up in Charlie's Hill and h up

420
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:34,199
in Lebanon, Maine. Okay,
the end of the month with September twenty

421
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,559
ninth. We're actually here in town
on Elm Street. We're at Top Shelf

422
00:36:37,599 --> 00:36:42,920
Tattoo Excellent. Yeah, we're gonna
be playing with dust Profit. Yeah.

423
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:49,599
I used to be in a band
with Auto from Yeah Yeah, yeah,

424
00:36:49,639 --> 00:36:53,880
and Trading Tombstone is gonna be on
that bill. And there's a band coming

425
00:36:54,000 --> 00:37:00,159
up from Philadelphia called shadow Witch.
Okay, we're really looking forward. We're

426
00:37:00,159 --> 00:37:05,039
playing super Show yeah yeah, yeah, which playing shows has been great because

427
00:37:05,559 --> 00:37:08,199
we've talked about this. I love
shows we get on where it's like four

428
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:13,239
bands and nobody sounds, you know, and you just, yeah, just

429
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,000
make some buddies and listen to a
whole bunch of different kinds of music.

430
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:20,440
It is really great playing with like
out a lot. Like we've gotten to

431
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:24,000
know so many bands around the area, and yeah, like love all of

432
00:37:24,039 --> 00:37:28,480
them, you know what I mean, as people love their music. Yeah,

433
00:37:28,519 --> 00:37:30,039
you know, it seems like you
guys too, can kind of fit

434
00:37:30,079 --> 00:37:35,960
in with different like you know,
yeah, you fit in with metal bands,

435
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,000
but you also probably fit Yeah.
I think in the beginning we had

436
00:37:38,039 --> 00:37:42,559
a trouble getting gigs because people didn't
know where to put us. Yeah,

437
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,119
because we had heavy riffs, so
we couldn't we could play with hardcore bands,

438
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,480
but we didn't quite fit in with
that, and then we will play

439
00:37:49,519 --> 00:37:52,360
with some metal bands and we didn't
quite fit in that. So they're just

440
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,119
trying to figure us out. But
we're starting to get quite a bit of

441
00:37:55,199 --> 00:38:00,400
games. We're also playing October twenty
second at Pub on the Park in Cranston,

442
00:38:00,519 --> 00:38:06,320
Rhode Island, Okay, and then
November twenty six we're backup in mail.

443
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:14,840
You have to change that sixteenth November
sixteenth, another show, another show

444
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:19,880
with dust profit Yes, oh,
very cool, outstanding, outstanding. Oh.

445
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,320
Jenny shared the link in the chat
room two to band camp and I

446
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,360
assume this is on all the streaming
services right, yeah. I was all

447
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:30,000
released at midnight. The only one
it wasn't on this morning was Pandora.

448
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:31,519
Okay, yeah, it'll be there, it'll be there. Yeah, it's

449
00:38:31,559 --> 00:38:37,960
definitely on Spotify, It's on Amazon
Music, Apple Musical Music. Outstanding,

450
00:38:38,159 --> 00:38:44,320
outstanding. And you've got physical copies
physical CDs. Appreciate, I appreciate you

451
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,440
you guys bringing those in. Was
that was that a difficult decision whether or

452
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:51,719
not to make physical discs or no, we just didn't know if we wanted

453
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,280
to do vinyl or CD. I
think we wanted to do vinyl, but

454
00:38:54,639 --> 00:39:01,960
it's expensive. Yeah yeah, yeah, I think I exclusively. We'll say,

455
00:39:02,199 --> 00:39:06,400
don't rule it out because it's a
possibility that it's coming. Yeah.

456
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,679
So yeah, yeah, I'd like
to see that artwork in a big gun.

457
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,559
That's the that's the beauty of the
most beautiful part about the vinyl is

458
00:39:13,679 --> 00:39:16,079
being able to put the big,
huge artwork on it. Oh yeah,

459
00:39:16,159 --> 00:39:20,920
yeah. Well I can remember buying
stuff simply because of the artwork. Oh

460
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,800
yeah, and being like, Okay, I'm going to roll the dice on

461
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:27,360
this because if they like this art. That's how you found music back in

462
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:30,400
the day when you didn't have Internet, you didn't have any other way to

463
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:31,639
to you know, when you were
in the mood for something new, you

464
00:39:31,679 --> 00:39:35,800
went to the local record store and
you stopped looking at artwork. Yeah.

465
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,880
It was either doing that or Headbanger's
Ball. It was the only two ways

466
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:44,400
I knew it was getting it twenty
minutes. Yep, I missed them both.

467
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:50,599
I've got somewhere in a storage unit, there's I've got a bunch of

468
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:55,480
vh old VHS tapes, so of
Headbangers Ball. I'm sure they don't play

469
00:39:55,519 --> 00:39:58,800
anymore, even if I had anything
to play them on. They're probably all

470
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:02,199
super damaged and and all that.
But now where should people I want to

471
00:40:02,199 --> 00:40:05,960
make sure two people know where to
go online to keep up with everything you

472
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,159
guys are doing as far as shows
and whatnot. We keep our Facebook,

473
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:15,559
Able Blood Facebook up to date most
Yeah. I'd like to say I'm good

474
00:40:15,559 --> 00:40:17,679
with the Instagram, but I'm not. Yeah, I don't keep it up

475
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:23,199
very well. Yeah, but I
do post on there fairly frequently. Jimmy

476
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:31,360
does the EPKA. He keeps that
up to date. And uh, you

477
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:36,199
can go there and you can see
past shows, upcoming shows, videos,

478
00:40:36,199 --> 00:40:40,599
The bio links to all our socials. Okay, excellent, excellent. I

479
00:40:40,599 --> 00:40:46,360
think to get the the most current
stuff is probably our Facebook page. Yeah,

480
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:50,599
okay, okay, And we should
make sure people know too. Able

481
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:55,199
is ab e L just so no
one's misspelling it looking for you guys,

482
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:58,760
Yes, although if you google it
the other way you probably still come up.

483
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,920
I would, I would hope.
But you come up with able Blood

484
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:07,239
and savable yeah, oh okay,
come up when you do it? Yeah?

485
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,280
Yeah. And then obviously this this
album is fresh, it came out

486
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:14,119
today. But are you already thinking
about the next one, because you said

487
00:41:14,119 --> 00:41:17,000
you were about halfway done writing,
yeah, the next one. Yeah,

488
00:41:17,079 --> 00:41:21,800
yeah, it's gonna be heavier too. Yeah. Really, and the song

489
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,559
Arrival of the Waves will probably end
up on that album. Yeah. So,

490
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:28,199
oh so there's an actual song called
Arrival of the Waves. Yeah,

491
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,840
that's how we got the name.
Yeah. Yeah, so we like to

492
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:34,840
I like to do little homages to, you know, bands that I like,

493
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,039
and this might be our homage to
led Zeppelin. Oh kidd okay,

494
00:41:37,119 --> 00:41:40,280
you know, like they had houses
all the holy was on what physical graffiti?

495
00:41:40,519 --> 00:41:44,800
Yeah, maybe we'll do something like
that. Or we'll just put a

496
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,039
rival on the of the Waves yea
on the next album. Or we'll just

497
00:41:47,079 --> 00:41:52,599
steal a bunch of blues music and
we could do that. Ah. Yes,

498
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:58,360
that's been a subject on Retrospectrum Radio
with Police. The other show that

499
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,280
I'm on later on Fridays is led
Zeppelin and their uh plagiarism, some of

500
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:07,880
which is really blatant. Yeah.
I can't believe that they won that case

501
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:14,519
against what was it Targas or Targus
or whatever. Oh no, sorry,

502
00:42:14,519 --> 00:42:17,880
I don't want to get into this
now. View I know, I know,

503
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:22,199
I know what you're talking about.
No, it's it's what was the

504
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:29,360
name of the band anyway? Yeah, yeah they did when the Zeppelin won

505
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:31,760
that one, didn't they because it's
really just one part of it that's the

506
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:36,960
same. But man, some of
them well yeah, yeah, the main

507
00:42:37,079 --> 00:42:39,079
riff, but some of those uh
yeah, some of those songs that they

508
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,400
took from blues artists. Like it's
not even just the riffs, it's like

509
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,880
it's like the lyrics too. It's
like, oh my god, just shameless.

510
00:42:47,119 --> 00:42:50,480
I mean, I love Zeppelin,
no offense. I mean, you've

511
00:42:50,559 --> 00:42:54,559
you've got the shirt, but uh
but yeah, they even stole a song

512
00:42:54,639 --> 00:42:59,599
from Joan Baiaz. Did you know
that? I don't remember what song it

513
00:42:59,679 --> 00:43:04,119
is, but yeah, there's a
song. I only know this because Paul

514
00:43:04,199 --> 00:43:07,719
see those of Retrospection Radio brought us
my attention. There's a Joan Baia's song

515
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,880
that they lift it and it's and
when you hear it, it's like it's

516
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:15,119
obvious, Like it's not even ambiguous, it's really obvious. It's like,

517
00:43:15,119 --> 00:43:21,960
oh my god, crazy. Yeah. Yeah, well, guys, this

518
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,960
has been wonderful. I really I
really appreciate y'all coming in. We'll we'll

519
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:30,239
close the show out with one more
track and guys, thank you again and

520
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,519
it's been great absolutely, And what
song would you like to close with?

521
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:39,159
Needs to live? Anything? Anything? Uh? Why this one? Anything

522
00:43:39,159 --> 00:43:43,519
we should know about our most wall
of sound? Wally sound? Oh is

523
00:43:43,559 --> 00:43:45,760
it? Yeah? Oh? Very
long? Yeah, all right, all

524
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:50,719
right. We love how it starts
off mellow and then just smacks you in

525
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,800
the mouth. Really yeah. I
kind of want you to tell the story

526
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:59,599
but behind seven dead? Oh oh
I'm curious. Oh seven dead story?

527
00:43:59,679 --> 00:44:02,199
Oh well that's I was watching a
publisher's clearing house commercial one day and I

528
00:44:02,199 --> 00:44:06,000
couldn't come up with any lyrics.
Yeah, and so I wrote the song

529
00:44:06,039 --> 00:44:09,000
about a publisher's clearing house giveaway.
Yeah, yeah, that was it.

530
00:44:09,039 --> 00:44:14,400
I mean it was. Yeah.
I'm kind of a strange topic for a

531
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:20,480
band that's heavy. But why seven
dead? How did you get seven bad

532
00:44:20,559 --> 00:44:23,400
from? Well? You know,
I always imagine like really old people winning

533
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:30,840
the publishers clearing house and you were
winning seven thousand dollars a day for people

534
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:35,519
dead. Seven of them are dead
every week. I don't know. Okay,

535
00:44:35,679 --> 00:44:38,599
Yeah, you ever read a song
about like consumer cellular or anything?

536
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:44,639
That might be the next subject I
talk about maybe maybe a cathet or commercial

537
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:50,360
on I'm working at a concept album
about boost Mobile. Yeah, excellent,

538
00:44:50,679 --> 00:44:53,239
excellent. All right, that's a
little younger generation though, that's not really

539
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,920
want to connect with the kid we're
gonna get You're gonna get old though,

540
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:00,559
they will. Adam keeps me thinking
though. On our first album, the

541
00:45:01,119 --> 00:45:05,280
first track of the album is called
The Day that Moby Died yea, and

542
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:10,360
people thought he was targeting the rapper
Moby Yeah yeah, which we were.

543
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:16,639
We had a review. Somebody reviewed
our album and tagged him in it.

544
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,599
That's fantastic, not that not that
we wouldn't want to get in an argument

545
00:45:22,639 --> 00:45:27,880
with Mobi, right, I mean
right, you know, good publicity.

546
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,559
Melanie said in the chat room.
I love doing the publishers clearing house.

547
00:45:31,679 --> 00:45:37,079
I will do it for years.
Uh convinced we are just a week away

548
00:45:37,119 --> 00:45:40,000
from being millionaires. You can all
you can already be a winner? Is

549
00:45:40,039 --> 00:45:44,119
that clears? Okay? All right, we gotta go. So we're gonna

550
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:47,400
