00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,080
the way, So before we talk about before we talk

92
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,159
about the music and the album and everything, I just

93
00:10:04,519 --> 00:10:08,120
I want to talk about the weather because because we

94
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,000
noticed online, Jenny brought this to my attention that a

95
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,080
couple of days ago it was actually colder in Texas

96
00:10:14,759 --> 00:10:17,039
than it is here. And I don't know if that's

97
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,799
still the case, but once it been like there. This

98
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,559
week it's been real cold.

99
00:10:22,639 --> 00:10:25,879
Speaker 12: Man. It was it was like twenty seven degrees yesterday.

100
00:10:26,039 --> 00:10:28,919
The wind chill was like minus two the other day.

101
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,320
So god, it's it's pretty unusual for us.

102
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's that's got to be brutal, because you guys

103
00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:36,799
aren't aren't prepared. I mean, do you even have like,

104
00:10:36,919 --> 00:10:39,039
do you have winter coats to wear?

105
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 6: Or is that that?

106
00:10:40,279 --> 00:10:42,639
Speaker 7: I mean, is that something anybody there even ever thinks

107
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,399
about or what or do you just put on multiple

108
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,519
layers or how do you deal with that kind of cold.

109
00:10:46,879 --> 00:10:48,919
Speaker 1: You put on? You put on two leather jackets.

00:11:12,799 --> 00:11:15,720
Ricky sent us that song which we'll we'll play later,

117
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,639
that Bury the Snake, And you were saying in the

118
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,000
email about how it's kind of like, you know, it's

119
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:22,679
kind of like old school kissing that way. And I

120
00:11:22,799 --> 00:11:23,960
listened to it and I thought, you know, I can

121
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,799
definitely imagine Gene Simmons uh singing that so great great stuff.

122
00:11:28,879 --> 00:11:31,559
But now these are all from the new album or

123
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:36,000
the newest your newest release, Cursed, Is that correct? It's right? Yeah?

124
00:11:36,399 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 12: We uh we We signed earlier this year with a

125
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,600
label called No Life Till Metal Records, Okay and U

126
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,120
and they we partnered with them and then released our

127
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,960
our second album. Our first one was Chain at Command,

128
00:11:50,039 --> 00:11:52,080
which came out in twenty twenty.

129
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 7: Yep, And.

130
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 12: This new one just came out a couple of weeks ago,

131
00:11:57,519 --> 00:11:59,519
and it's getting a real good response. We played a

132
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,759
good show here in uh Fort Worth and kicked it off,

133
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,360
and now we're telling everyone else about it.

134
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 7: Yeah. I think the first time we talked to you guys,

135
00:12:09,399 --> 00:12:13,360
I think it was a Chain of Command had come

136
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,639
out fairly recently, or that was your newest release that

137
00:12:15,919 --> 00:12:17,919
was a while ago. I bet you know that the

138
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,600
time it goes so fast it becomes a blur. But

139
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:22,639
I think I think that's what we were talking about

140
00:12:22,639 --> 00:12:24,559
the first time we had you guys on and.

141
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,519
Speaker 12: And then we we talked about it when we released

142
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,639
pyro Mancer. We talked to you that time.

143
00:12:30,039 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 7: Yep.

144
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: Okay, yep, that's right.

145
00:12:32,799 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 7: That's right.

146
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,279
Speaker 12: And Pyro mansers on this album as well. It's uh,

147
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,720
this was this album is really like a uh. Some

148
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,679
of these songs have been released a while. It was

149
00:12:41,759 --> 00:12:44,159
like some singles that we've been released every few months

150
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,120
for the past year or so, and then uh, and

151
00:12:48,159 --> 00:12:50,200
then a couple other ones that haven't been released yet,

152
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,600
like Sands of Time and Bury the Snake. So uh,

153
00:12:54,639 --> 00:12:57,720
the Uh, it's a it's some songs that we've been

154
00:12:57,759 --> 00:13:00,799
working on and uh, you know, yeah, it's we're really

155
00:13:00,879 --> 00:13:02,320
we're real happy with the collection.

156
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,399
Speaker 7: Has the approach with this album been different, been different

157
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,879
than with Chain of Command? Has has the process evolved?

158
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:10,159
Speaker 10: Or?

159
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 7: I mean it sounds like some of these might have

160
00:13:12,039 --> 00:13:14,360
been recorded at different times in different studios, right from

161
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,440

162
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:22,799

00:13:48,399 --> 00:13:51,399
Speaker 7: I can hear you? Todd? Yeah, all right, Well we

170
00:13:51,919 --> 00:13:54,960
we keep losing Rick, Rick, I have an idea. Do

171
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,000
you want do you want to The approach wasn't oh

172
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,440
I was. I was gonna say, Rick, do you want

173
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,080
to call this studio line on your phone? And that

174
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,679
way we can have Todd on Skype and you on

175
00:14:03,759 --> 00:14:05,919
the uh on the phone line and that'll work since

176
00:14:05,919 --> 00:14:11,840
you're cutting in and out. I don't know if sure.

177
00:14:11,919 --> 00:14:13,879
Speaker 1: I think I think he should do that if he heard.

178
00:14:13,759 --> 00:14:16,399
Speaker 7: That okay if you heard that, Yeah, Rick, the studio

179
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,559
line is six oh three two five oh six oh

180
00:14:19,679 --> 00:14:21,960
oh seven. If you want to call us, maybe that

181
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,120
would work better. Maybe your maybe your internet's being a

182
00:14:26,159 --> 00:14:28,159
little wonky. I don't know. I think Jenny, did you

183
00:14:28,279 --> 00:14:29,200
just send that to him too?

184
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:29,519
Speaker 1: Yes?

185
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,159
Speaker 7: I did. Okay, Jenny sent you that to Rick. I

186
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,360
don't know if you can even hear me, but give

187
00:14:34,639 --> 00:14:35,960
us a call on the studio line if you want.

188
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,639
I'll pick that up and we can uh uh that

189
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,399
way we can continue. Yeah, Skype is not uh I'll

190
00:14:41,399 --> 00:14:42,840
tell you. I'll tell you what. It's gotten a lot

191
00:14:42,879 --> 00:14:44,320
better than it used to be Skype.

192
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,399
Speaker 1: But I can answer your question.

193
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 7: I think, yeah, go ahead, Todd. Yeah.

194
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: They were all done in the same studio.

195
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 9: We just we just we recorded the drums in our

196
00:14:54,919 --> 00:14:58,159
rehearsal studio and we had our guy who mixed it

197
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,759
and engineered it do that, and then we all the guitar,

198
00:15:00,879 --> 00:15:03,200
all the vocals, all that stuff is done at my house,

199
00:15:03,679 --> 00:15:06,159
and then we released a song. As we were done

200
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,159
with the song, we'd release it and then I would

201
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,600
shoot a video for it, and then we would do

202
00:15:10,679 --> 00:15:12,279
a whole video and we release it that way, So

203
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,120
we released things, you know, every two or three or

204
00:15:16,159 --> 00:15:16,720
four months.

205
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,639
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's interesting that we you know, we live in

206
00:15:20,679 --> 00:15:23,840
a time where, yeah, there's so many different approaches you

207
00:15:23,879 --> 00:15:28,039
can take as far as releasing music. You know, there

208
00:15:28,159 --> 00:15:30,000
was a time when it was pretty standard. You know,

209
00:15:30,159 --> 00:15:32,960
you release an album and maybe the first single goes

210
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,240
to radio six to eight weeks before the album's coming out,

211
00:15:36,639 --> 00:15:38,440
and then the album comes out, and then the second

212
00:15:38,519 --> 00:15:40,039
single and then maybe the third single.

213
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:40,519
Speaker 12: You know.

214
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 7: Now it's like there's so many different ways you can

215
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:45,279
do it because of the Internet, because of social media,

216
00:15:45,879 --> 00:15:49,120
and a lot of artists now are using the you know,

217
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,840
they call it the waterfall approach, where you release a

218
00:15:51,879 --> 00:15:54,080
series of singles and then an album. And I think

219
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,840
we have Rick on the phone. Rick, is that you. Yeah, Yeah, okay,

220
00:15:57,879 --> 00:16:01,240
welcome back. Excellent, excellent, Okay, so now we're all we're

221
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,039
all together again. We're all good.

222
00:16:03,559 --> 00:16:04,159
Speaker 13: Sorry about that.

223
00:16:04,399 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 7: Uh, you know, that's okay.

224
00:16:06,679 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 12: The Skype three way didn't didn't work as plan.

225
00:16:09,559 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, technology will fail us at times. That is uh,

226
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:18,000
that is a factive life. No, but this works. This

227
00:16:18,159 --> 00:16:24,200
works now, you guys too. So Todd, you referred to videos.

228
00:16:25,399 --> 00:16:27,120
You guys have made. How many music videos do you

229
00:16:27,159 --> 00:16:28,840
guys have? It seems like you've made quite a few

230
00:16:28,879 --> 00:16:29,399
at this point.

231
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:36,639
Speaker 1: Oh, we have a ton we've done. I shot six, No. Five,

232
00:16:37,039 --> 00:16:40,639
five of the last six videos. This is a seventh

233
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,559
song album. I did five of the last six one

234
00:16:44,639 --> 00:16:45,320
of them. One of them.

235
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 9: We had somebody else to actually just use some footage

236
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,759
that a guy had to get out to get our

237
00:16:49,799 --> 00:16:53,000
first video out for this album, which was Tonight we raid.

238
00:16:53,399 --> 00:16:55,159
We used some live footage and then through a bunch

239
00:16:55,159 --> 00:16:57,039
of bombs and airplanes and you know, on the standard,

240
00:16:57,519 --> 00:16:59,840
the standard, good old metal stuff in there because it

241
00:16:59,919 --> 00:17:02,080
was appropriate. Yeah, And then I shot all the rest

242
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,599
of those myself and edited when it was nice. Like

243
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,200
you said, you kind of did the I didn't know

244
00:17:06,279 --> 00:17:08,400
how to name, but good. The waterfall effect was great

245
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,079
because we could do a video, release it, and then

246
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,799
whenever we were ready we could do the next one.

247
00:17:13,799 --> 00:17:15,359
We could do one at a time instead of kind

248
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,079
of like you know, putting everything out there all at once,

249
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:19,960
and then you don't that's it. You don't hear from

250
00:17:20,039 --> 00:17:22,920
us again for five years. Right, we were We've been

251
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,160
in your we've been in your faith.

252
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: For the last two years.

253
00:17:25,279 --> 00:17:29,079
Speaker 7: You know, yeah, exactly. Yeah, I think it's I think

254
00:17:29,079 --> 00:17:31,319
it's so important. Uh in the era that we live

255
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:32,720
in too. You know, you got to kind of feed

256
00:17:32,799 --> 00:17:36,279
that machine. And yeah, like you said, you know, being

257
00:17:36,319 --> 00:17:39,359
people's uh faces and uh, Rick, is that is that

258
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,079
kind of how the way you think about it too?

259
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,440
The way Todd does in terms of strategy.

260
00:17:44,039 --> 00:17:46,799
Speaker 12: Yeah, just uh that way there's always something new coming

261
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:52,720
out and uh instead of blowing your whole creative wand

262
00:17:52,839 --> 00:17:55,519
so to speak at one time, Uh, you know, you

263
00:17:55,799 --> 00:17:57,559
you prolong the pleasure.

264
00:17:57,599 --> 00:18:06,279
Speaker 7: I suppose, well, well put Yeah, the videos, So Todd,

265
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,480
you shoot all those I.

266
00:18:08,519 --> 00:18:09,559
Speaker 1: Shot a lot of them.

267
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:13,079
Speaker 9: Yeah, probably the last the last five or so. We

268
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:14,640
did our We did all those ourselves.

269
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 7: That's awesome. Yeah, that's that's fantastic. It's funny too, because

270
00:18:18,279 --> 00:18:20,000
some people don't realize. In fact, I was having a

271
00:18:20,079 --> 00:18:23,759
conversation with someone last night about this. Some people think

272
00:18:23,839 --> 00:18:27,559
that music videos because MTV obviously doesn't play them anymore

273
00:18:27,599 --> 00:18:29,680
and hasn't for a long time. I'm sure they have

274
00:18:29,759 --> 00:18:32,960
a show where they might play some but but but

275
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,279
but yeah, probably not. But people a lot of people

276
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,599
have a perception that music videos are dead, that the

277
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,559
art of the music video is dead. And I I

278
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,319
told the person I was talking with, I said, well,

279
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,759
actually there's more music videos than ever because of YouTube,

280
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,599
and you know, now, uh, there's there's more, you know,

281
00:18:51,839 --> 00:18:54,480
you know, and and there's some artists, you know, major

282
00:18:54,599 --> 00:18:57,680
artists who have just you know, a gazillion dollars, who

283
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,279
if they have an album that's coming out, they'll actually

284
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,240
make I know, Beyonce has done this where there was

285
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,440
an album where she had a video, a high budget

286
00:19:06,559 --> 00:19:09,599
video for every single track on the album, not just

287
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,400
the singles. You know, she just went all out, which

288
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,039
must be nice to have the money to do that.

289
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,119
But but it really is such a crucial marketing tool

290
00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:21,480
now now more than it's ever been. I would argue, yeah,

291
00:19:21,559 --> 00:19:23,720
I you know, we.

292
00:19:23,799 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 12: Wanted to put a video out for every song because

293
00:19:27,839 --> 00:19:31,319
it's just the best way to get people's attention on

294
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,559
social media, you know, on Facebook and Instagram, and there's

295
00:19:34,559 --> 00:19:37,960
all sorts of avenues you can use the videos with.

296
00:19:38,279 --> 00:19:42,480
And uh. And so when we first put up our

297
00:19:42,519 --> 00:19:44,680
first album, Chain of Command, we did the we got

298
00:19:44,759 --> 00:19:47,480
someone to shoot the first video for us. But you know,

299
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,319
it was it was about five hundred bucks, and uh,

300
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,200
that's a lot of money for a unsigned local band.

301
00:19:55,279 --> 00:19:58,160
So we had to try to figure out a different

302
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,960
way of doing it, and luckily Todd stepped up to

303
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,319
the plate and figured out how to do it on

304
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,400
his phone. And so we like doing things do it yourself.

305
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,599
That way, you can put your own creativity into it,

306
00:20:09,079 --> 00:20:11,119
keep it low budget, but still make it look cool.

307
00:20:11,599 --> 00:20:14,160
So I think that's a lot more creative way of

308
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,640
doing it. We recorded the album that way. Also, we

309
00:20:17,759 --> 00:20:20,000
recorded the album completely ourselves and just send it to

310
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,319
our engineer guy.

311
00:20:23,319 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 7: To mix it all.

312
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 12: Okay, We try to keep it in house as much

313
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,200
as possible. That way, we can put our own creativity

314
00:20:29,279 --> 00:20:31,480
into it. That way, we can redo it as many

315
00:20:31,559 --> 00:20:33,400
times do we want to, if we want to, you know,

316
00:20:33,519 --> 00:20:36,000
get it just right the way we want it. And

317
00:20:36,599 --> 00:20:37,759
it's worked out good so far.

318
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's excellent. Yeah, I mean, it's it's remarkable too

319
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,680
to live in a time where we have the technology

320
00:20:43,799 --> 00:20:46,119
to do these kinds of things, and it does it

321
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:51,640
allows you to have control, really complete control over what

322
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,319
you're putting out and how you're presenting yourselves, and and

323
00:20:54,519 --> 00:20:58,440
it's it's a great time to be alive in that sense. Really,

324
00:20:58,519 --> 00:21:01,359
I mean, it's it's really ar Yeah.

325
00:21:01,839 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 12: In the old days, you know, Matt, the major labels

326
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,680
were like the gatekeepers, and they were the ones who

327
00:21:08,759 --> 00:21:13,519
decided what bands would be uh uh, you know, recorded

328
00:21:13,559 --> 00:21:16,720
and have releases out and promoted to the people. So

329
00:21:17,279 --> 00:21:20,400
there weren't that really that many bands. Now it's much easier.

330
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,839
Almost anyone can do it, So it's way easy to

331
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,319
get your your stuff out there. It's just there's a

332
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,519
lot more other bands to compete with. So that's the

333
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:35,400
challenge now is just becoming getting yourself noticed. But we

334
00:21:35,599 --> 00:21:39,759
just focus on what we think is good quality songs

335
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,480
and you know, iroon John is just pure metal with

336
00:21:43,599 --> 00:21:48,759
no gimmicks. You know, it's just solid metal that's based

337
00:21:48,799 --> 00:21:53,039
on good songwriting, I think, and uh and that's what

338
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,720
we hope people will pick up on. And eventually by

339
00:21:56,759 --> 00:21:59,880
putting out songs every couple of months on a video

340
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,759
accompanying it, we're hoping that people will eventually start noticing it.

341
00:22:02,839 --> 00:22:04,440
And it seems like they're starting to.

342
00:22:04,839 --> 00:22:08,519
Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, Todd, you had started to say something

343
00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:09,039
as well.

344
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 9: Well, you didn't mention the you know, the ability the

345
00:22:12,559 --> 00:22:14,519
technology these days and I was like, it's you know,

346
00:22:14,599 --> 00:22:15,559
it's a may II we did.

347
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: We filmed all that on my phone.

348
00:22:17,559 --> 00:22:19,799
Speaker 9: Yeah, all our videos that I shot, we actually just

349
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:22,079
filmed it on my phone, and then I edited it

350
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:27,200
on the most basic iMovie program you can imagine.

351
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 1: And at first I didn't think I could do it.

352
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 9: I even at one point I remember a couple of

353
00:22:30,519 --> 00:22:32,519
two or three years ago for an old video we

354
00:22:32,599 --> 00:22:35,279
did for a ride Free or Die from our first

355
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,240
record during the pandemic, I was like, dude, I can't

356
00:22:38,279 --> 00:22:40,359
do this. I just don't have the ability. And then

357
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:41,880
I kind of took a break and I came back

358
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,079
to it and I figured it out, and I did

359
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,839
it on iMovie, you know, which is like it's basically

360
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,599
iMovie is kind of like your home video that you

361
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,039
put some music in the background of your kids at Christmas,

362
00:22:53,319 --> 00:22:54,680
right technology.

363
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,279
Speaker 2: But I figured it out, and so then I was

364
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,880
able to pump out a bunch of videos for us.

365
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 9: Yeah, and you know you mentioned Beyonce did it, but

366
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:07,279
but really I took the idea from more from Metallica.

367
00:23:07,279 --> 00:23:09,400
Speaker 2: Because Metallica released their last two records, they did the

368
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:09,799
same thing.

369
00:23:10,039 --> 00:23:12,319
Speaker 9: They had a video for damn near every song yeah,

370
00:23:12,319 --> 00:23:13,839
and a lot of and a lot of them they

371
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,759
just shot in their own home studio, which you know

372
00:23:16,079 --> 00:23:18,359
they called the headquarters because it's I'm sure it's a massive,

373
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,160
you know, compound somewhere right, And they shot all those

374
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,000
in the same room almost and they and you can

375
00:23:24,039 --> 00:23:26,200
tell they just changed close changed lighting, and so I

376
00:23:26,279 --> 00:23:28,359
kind of we kind of went with that method, you know,

377
00:23:28,559 --> 00:23:29,720
were we shot a lot.

378
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:30,400
Speaker 1: Of it in the same room.

379
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,799
Speaker 9: We just we just rearranged the room and got created

380
00:23:33,839 --> 00:23:34,960
with the backgrounds and stuff.

381
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: So we kind of did that. Took I took it

382
00:23:36,799 --> 00:23:38,640
more from Metallica than than Beyonce.

383
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,279
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah to her, she won, she won Country

384
00:23:42,319 --> 00:23:43,759
Album of the Year, so whatever.

385
00:23:44,039 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 7: Sure, sure, yeah, you can't argue with success. But yeah,

386
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,559
I assume the place and the Metallica videos where they

387
00:23:50,559 --> 00:23:52,160
shot those, I assume it's the same place that you

388
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,160
see in the documentary some kind of Monster. Yeah, it

389
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:55,880
looks like it's there.

390
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 9: It's there what they call their headquarters, Yeah, which is

391
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,160
what we should call our rehearsal room, the headquarters.

392
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: You know, you know, it's a big as placement, you

393
00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:04,200
call it your headquarters.

394
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:10,759
Speaker 7: It's not just for the jam, Yeah, exactly, a compound. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

395
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,079
Now that it's cool though, that you're able to and

396
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:15,599
that you know and that you're willing to learn the

397
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,960
technology too. I think a lot of artists who you know,

398
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,480
especially artists who who have been around for a while,

399
00:24:22,559 --> 00:24:25,319
maybe maybe you are a little older, who are resistant

400
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,559
to the technology. Part of that is just people being

401
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,039
technophobic generally. You know, people are are Some people get

402
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,400
nervous around you know, can can I learn this? Do

403
00:24:36,519 --> 00:24:39,079
I have the ability to learn this? And and then,

404
00:24:39,559 --> 00:24:41,559
But very often if you challenge yourself to do it,

405
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,519
and you really dive in and do it, at the

406
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,440
end of the process you say, Okay, that wasn't so bad.

407
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,319
I was able to learn that, and it's it's good

408
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,839
for your it's good for your brain too. Always I

409
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:51,559
totally agree.

410
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,759
Speaker 9: I had that problem because I had to learn how

411
00:24:53,799 --> 00:24:56,279
to first just record my own vocals. And I did

412
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,640
that from when I was in a previous band, because

413
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,799
I got tired of going into a studio over the

414
00:25:00,839 --> 00:25:03,519
weekend and that be the final product.

415
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: That's it. You're done. If you don't like it too bad,

416
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,680
pay me some more if you want to fix it.

417
00:25:09,079 --> 00:25:10,279
Speaker 2: So I got to the point where I got to

418
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:11,440
learn how to do this on my own.

419
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,079
Speaker 9: So, I mean, I can't tell you how long it

420
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,440
took me just to hook up the microphone and get

421
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,440
it to work right, really, you know, just that probably.

422
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,079
Speaker 1: Then I had to learn how to do guitars. Then

423
00:25:20,079 --> 00:25:21,920
I had to learn how to do videos, and I

424
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:22,400
did it all.

425
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 2: And I'm not a technically proficient person so to speak.

426
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,079
Speaker 9: I mean, I'm a drummer at heart, so I usually

427
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,799
just you know, tighten down the tight down the drumshell

428
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:31,359
on the stand.

429
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: And I have no you know, and I have nothing

430
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,599
to plug in. I have no red, yellow, green wires

431
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:37,480
or anything like that to.

432
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,559
Speaker 9: Plug in for thirty years, so I was never what

433
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,799
I would call technically proficient, but I figured it out.

434
00:25:43,039 --> 00:25:47,319
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, but that's a good that's a good lesson

435
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,519
too for people and for people who maybe are intimidated

436
00:25:50,599 --> 00:25:54,240
by the technology. You say, not technically proficient. But what

437
00:25:54,319 --> 00:25:56,319
I think a lot of people don't realize is, you know,

438
00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:00,359
these technologies are designed for people who aren't necessary arly

439
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,880
technically proficient. You just got to be you just got

440
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,720
to be able to, you know, willing to put your

441
00:26:04,759 --> 00:26:07,480
head down and just learn. But but you don't have

442
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,559
to be some sort of technical wizard to use these tools.

443
00:26:10,599 --> 00:26:14,640
And I think that's something people who are intimidated don't realize.

444
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:19,039
But if you can learn that, yeah, yeah, there you go,

445
00:26:19,319 --> 00:26:23,359
there you go. The videos all too, I mean, yeah,

446
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,359
they look you know, they look cool, and they look

447
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,759
you know, they're they're competitive with what else is out there?

448
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:33,599
So what's what's the scene like there for you guys?

449
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,920
I know, and I think we've talked about it before.

450
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:40,319
My impression is that the Dallas metal scene is is

451
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,279
really good. That there's there's really good places to play,

452
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,119
and there's a lot of great bands there is that

453
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:46,880
Is that still the case?

454
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,039
Speaker 12: I would say there's a lot of there's there's a

455
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,920
decent amount of places to play. We're we're actually in

456
00:26:55,039 --> 00:26:58,960
fort Worth, uh okay, you know, right next to Dallas.

457
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,559
So yeah, there's play is playing fort Worth and Dallas.

458
00:27:01,839 --> 00:27:06,839
Uh you know, probably about four or five really good

459
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,480
venues in each each town I would say to play at. Yeah,

460
00:27:11,039 --> 00:27:13,759
and probably a lot of other smaller ones. Yeah, but

461
00:27:13,799 --> 00:27:16,759
there's some there's plenty of good there's shows every weekend,

462
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:21,759
I mean tons of shows. So yeah, national acts and

463
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,400
local bands. I mean it's it's a pretty healthy scene

464
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,160
and there's a lot of good bands, a lot of

465
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,400
different kinds of metal. We kind of stand out a

466
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,519
little bit because a lot of the bands are more

467
00:27:34,599 --> 00:27:38,119
modern style, and Iron Jaw kind of hearkens back to,

468
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:43,400
I think, a more classic metal style. But even so,

469
00:27:43,759 --> 00:27:46,559
you know, we'll play with anybody. We'll do shows with

470
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,319
death metal bands or sure, you know, rock and roll bands.

471
00:27:51,079 --> 00:27:54,799
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I mean your sound is is a little

472
00:27:54,839 --> 00:27:57,480
more classic metal, but it also is very but I

473
00:27:57,519 --> 00:28:01,359
think I think it's a little more aggressive, heavier than

474
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,519
a lot of a lot of a lot of that stuff,

475
00:28:04,799 --> 00:28:06,440
you know, in terms of production on what you want

476
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,839
that Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think you.

477
00:28:09,839 --> 00:28:12,839
Speaker 9: Know, I think you have even if you have these days,

478
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,160
because of just the way technology is, even if you

479
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,480
have that approach, you know, the old school style, just

480
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,880
the way things sound so good these days, it makes

481
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,960
it sound a little more modern than its actual intent,

482
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,519
just because it sounds so clean and so crisp, just

483
00:28:29,599 --> 00:28:31,079
from you know, people's home studios.

484
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,079
Speaker 1: I think that adds to the I'm glad you say that,

485
00:28:33,079 --> 00:28:33,799
because I'm glad.

486
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:34,839
Speaker 9: We kind of have a little bit of a modern

487
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,240
feel and not you know, that because you remember old

488
00:28:37,279 --> 00:28:38,559
school production it was.

489
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 1: It was horrible.

490
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,759
Speaker 9: It kind of even I think it made metal struggle

491
00:28:42,799 --> 00:28:44,279
a little bit because people didn't.

492
00:28:44,079 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 1: Know how to record metal back in the eighties.

493
00:28:45,759 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 9: So well, and you have a really fast band like

494
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,400
can Thrash or any of that sounded so bad and

495
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,240
you're like, those are good riffs. It's just there's no

496
00:28:52,279 --> 00:28:53,880
way I could convince my buddy to listen to this

497
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,400
because it just sounds horrible. Right, He doesn't understand musicianship.

498
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,680
He just goes that sounds like I don't know if

499
00:28:59,680 --> 00:28:59,920
I can cut.

500
00:29:00,279 --> 00:29:02,559
Speaker 7: Sorry, no, but we're on a delay. I caught it.

501
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 2: Sorry, that's okay, Alright, I'm gonna say something earlier too, and.

502
00:29:06,839 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 7: I was like, that's all right, it happens. No, we're

503
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,559
on a delay. It's all good. But uh but yeah no,

504
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,559
And I think to your point, yeah, that's true. People

505
00:29:14,599 --> 00:29:17,119
didn't know how to record metal. And although that that

506
00:29:17,279 --> 00:29:20,720
doesn't always uh preclude success. I mean, you look at

507
00:29:20,839 --> 00:29:25,559
and Justice for All you know, uh, which was you know,

508
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,279
such a huge album for the really the biggest band,

509
00:29:28,839 --> 00:29:30,880
you know, not just biggest metal band, but the biggest

510
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:35,160
band in the world Metallica and I I think that out.

511
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,759
I mean, it sounds terrible, but they put it out

512
00:29:39,839 --> 00:29:42,759
and and it worked. It just works, So you never know.

513
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,480
But I think, but I think you're right. I think

514
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,119
I think the trick is if you if the production

515
00:29:47,319 --> 00:29:50,519
is really good, then even if it's something that maybe

516
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,359
harkens back to a different time, as long as the

517
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,960
production is really good and really strong and loud and aggressive,

518
00:29:57,039 --> 00:29:59,880
it's going to have a certain timelessness to it. And

519
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,720
and I think you guys have captured that. I think

520
00:30:01,759 --> 00:30:04,960
there's something timeless about you know, a track like Sands

521
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,799
of Time. It's you know, you can listen to that

522
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,680
in any era and it's it just sounds really really good.

523
00:30:10,519 --> 00:30:13,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, Sands of Time. Sands of Time was

524
00:30:13,359 --> 00:30:17,359
the song that got me hooked on the band.

525
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,319
Speaker 2: It was the song that he first that Rick first

526
00:30:19,799 --> 00:30:20,480
presented to me.

527
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,319
Speaker 7: Oh okay, I was and I was like, that's a

528
00:30:22,359 --> 00:30:22,799
great song.

529
00:30:22,839 --> 00:30:25,599
Speaker 1: And they had previously recorded it with their old singer Yea.

530
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 9: The song's been around for a minute and finally finally

531
00:30:28,359 --> 00:30:30,519
made it on a record, But uh, that was the

532
00:30:30,559 --> 00:30:32,559
song that hooked me, and it's still it's still one

533
00:30:32,599 --> 00:30:35,160
of the coolest songs out of the counterlog.

534
00:30:35,519 --> 00:30:37,319
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, no, I love that. I love that.

535
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,039
Speaker 12: Yeah, we would have, we would have put it on

536
00:30:40,119 --> 00:30:42,200
the first album, but we we just actually kind of

537
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,000
ran out of time, and uh so we just said, okay,

538
00:30:45,079 --> 00:30:48,720
well we'll save it for another time, and you know,

539
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,319
the Sands of Time eventually caught up to us.

540
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 7: So yeah, there you go, there you go. I love

541
00:30:55,519 --> 00:30:57,319
the solo on that too. I don't know if we've

542
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,440
talked about this before, Rick, when you've been on the show,

543
00:30:59,519 --> 00:31:02,720
but who are your influences as a guitar player. I'm

544
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,400
really curious because I love your solos.

545
00:31:06,319 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 12: Uh well, first of all, there's two two lead guitar

546
00:31:09,799 --> 00:31:14,119
players and Iron John, myself and Brown. The solo in

547
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,480
in the Sands of Time, for example, I do the

548
00:31:16,519 --> 00:31:18,799
first one at the very beginning of the song, and

549
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,079
then later on in the song it starts off with

550
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:22,960
Jeff and it goes to me and then it goes

551
00:31:23,079 --> 00:31:24,079
back to Jeff.

552
00:31:24,279 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 7: I love that. I love that approach. It gives it,

553
00:31:26,799 --> 00:31:29,440
It gives a texture, you know, when they would two

554
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:30,720
guitars going back and forth.

555
00:31:30,799 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 9: It that.

556
00:31:31,359 --> 00:31:32,119
Speaker 7: That's really cool.

557
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:38,079
Speaker 12: Yeah, Rick, Rick, I love Judis Priest and of course

558
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,279
and Slayer and bands like that that have two lead

559
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:46,319
guitar players because uh, it's it becomes like a a

560
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:51,400
dialogue between two uh performances. You know, like there's a

561
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,880
one guitar player will have his solo and then another

562
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,799
guitar player will have their response to that almost and

563
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,359
it becomes almost like a dialogue. And uh that that's

564
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:07,279
pretty much the influence for uh me as a guitar players.

565
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,319
You know, Judas Priest and uh and also I love

566
00:32:11,519 --> 00:32:16,039
Angus Young of a C D C and uh Ted

567
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,880
Nugent you know from the seventies. I love Ted Nugent.

568
00:32:19,039 --> 00:32:22,359
Ace freely is a big influence on on me for

569
00:32:22,559 --> 00:32:27,039
lead guitar. Yes, so just I like uh, I like

570
00:32:27,119 --> 00:32:30,720
the solo too kind of say something and kind of

571
00:32:30,759 --> 00:32:32,319
be like a song within the song.

572
00:32:32,519 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 3: You know.

573
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,599
Speaker 12: Yeah, it should it should be memorable and you should

574
00:32:36,599 --> 00:32:40,759
be able to uh you know remember the key key

575
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,039
little phrases in there.

576
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 7: Uh. Do you guys have a lot of songs where

577
00:32:44,519 --> 00:32:47,400
you and Jeff trade off like that? Or is or

578
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:48,480
is that unusual?

579
00:32:49,039 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 3: Uh?

580
00:32:49,799 --> 00:32:53,559
Speaker 12: About half of them? Probably cool? Uh? We we you

581
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,720
do trade offs or or maybe I'll do a lead

582
00:32:56,799 --> 00:32:58,599
section in the beginning and he'll do one at the

583
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:02,480
end or something like that. Okay, some sol as he

584
00:33:02,599 --> 00:33:05,279
does all by himself, some I d all by myself.

585
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,759
We just we bury it up. Yeah, And I think

586
00:33:07,799 --> 00:33:10,759
it makes it more interesting for the the listener and

587
00:33:10,799 --> 00:33:13,559
also the people who come see us live, because you know,

588
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,039
you're looking back and forth. Now he's playing, Now this

589
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,839
guy's playing. It makes it more interesting, I think.

590
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,599
Speaker 7: Yeah, Yeah, I'd love to see you guys live. Are

591
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,640
you We talked a little bit about the scene there.

592
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,920
Are you guys playing out a lot? Are you doing?

593
00:33:26,519 --> 00:33:28,720
Are you doing shows every week or what? What's what?

594
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,160
What's it like for you guys? How active have you been?

595
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,279
Speaker 12: We're uh, well we uh go ahead, Todd.

596
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, we don't play out as that much anymore. We

597
00:33:39,839 --> 00:33:45,079
we play more selective shows. Yeah, you know, because people

598
00:33:45,079 --> 00:33:47,160
aren't gonna come see every week. They're not gonna even

599
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,400
come see every month, so you know, every every couple

600
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,000
of months, I mean, like this.

601
00:33:51,119 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 2: Year, we have one potential show that might be Uh.

602
00:33:55,119 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 9: What's funny is I'm looking at old footage of you

603
00:33:57,079 --> 00:33:59,440
from last week, I think, and you're wearing a warhog shirt.

604
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 7: Oh, I'm wearing a warhog shirt. Right now?

605
00:34:02,279 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: Is that is that current?

606
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,519
Speaker 7: But I'm looking at Oh we love Warhog, Yes, yeah, yeah.

607
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,679
Speaker 9: They're locals the virus. They're local buddies of virus. As

608
00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:10,840
matter of fact, I've been going back and forth with them.

609
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,760
We're trying to line up our next show with them.

610
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 7: Oh that's awesome. Yeah, Oh that's what it looks like.

611
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:17,480
Speaker 1: And Rick doesn't even know this yet.

612
00:34:17,519 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 2: It looks like the date we've set they might be

613
00:34:21,679 --> 00:34:22,079
headed to.

614
00:34:22,679 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 9: They're doing a battle of the bands from Voking thing, okay,

615
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:26,760
and so it looks like they made it to the

616
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,079
next round. So it looks like the show we're gonna

617
00:34:29,079 --> 00:34:31,039
have to change dates on. But yeah, our next show

618
00:34:31,599 --> 00:34:33,679
in the middle of the summer might.

619
00:34:33,599 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 13: Be with them.

620
00:34:34,039 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 1: I mean, we might book something in between that.

621
00:34:35,519 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 9: But we try not to overplay or oversaturate it, you know,

622
00:34:38,039 --> 00:34:40,400
because you know, people who are into this stuff are

623
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,280
a little older. They're not going to go every week

624
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:43,880
to see you play like when you were twenty one,

625
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:44,800
and they didn't give a damn.

626
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 2: They're out, they're there, they're into it, they're staying till

627
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:47,679
the end.

628
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: That doesn't happen anymore, right right.

629
00:34:51,559 --> 00:34:54,039
Speaker 12: Yeah, war When we first started, when we When we

630
00:34:54,159 --> 00:34:57,920
first started as a band, uh you know, which was

631
00:34:58,119 --> 00:35:02,960
I guess around twenty eighteen something like that, we played

632
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,880
out everywhere we could, you know, maybe two or three

633
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:10,320
times a month sometimes. Yeah, but now most of the

634
00:35:10,519 --> 00:35:13,360
metal fans here in DFW know who we are, and

635
00:35:13,639 --> 00:35:16,400
uh yeah, like Todd says, we kind of space it

636
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,079
out and try to make it a really special gig

637
00:35:19,199 --> 00:35:22,000
and you know, choose the venue and the play and

638
00:35:22,119 --> 00:35:24,400
other bands we're gonna play with, and try to put

639
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,880
together a good package and uh uh and do it

640
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,880
that way. Either that or if something comes along where

641
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,440
we have a chance to open up for a national act,

642
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,440
we'll take that too, because that'll be a good chance

643
00:35:36,519 --> 00:35:38,679
for us to plan for some new people.

644
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:40,880
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, absolutely, absolutely.

645
00:35:41,199 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 1: Yeah.

646
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,159
Speaker 7: I so I don't play anymore, but I used to

647
00:35:43,159 --> 00:35:46,119
play in bands, and I do know, I am very

648
00:35:46,159 --> 00:35:49,119
familiar with the grind of when you're in that mode

649
00:35:49,119 --> 00:35:51,960
where you're just trying to play every show you possibly can,

650
00:35:52,679 --> 00:35:56,239
and when you're younger and you have less responsibilities, it's

651
00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:57,760
it's a little easier.

652
00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 1: To do that.

653
00:35:58,119 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 7: But then but but you know, so part of it too,

654
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,519
not just not just getting older and you have more responsibilities,

655
00:36:04,559 --> 00:36:05,840
and you have to use your time, you know, you

656
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,519
have to kind of pick and choose what you're doing

657
00:36:07,559 --> 00:36:12,079
with your time. But also, as technology, which is a

658
00:36:12,159 --> 00:36:15,559
consistent theme of course with these conversations, as technology has evolved,

659
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,880
people have so many more options now for what they

660
00:36:19,039 --> 00:36:22,480
do with their time. And and and you're right, you know,

661
00:36:22,639 --> 00:36:24,719
people aren't necessarily going to come out and see you,

662
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,760
even if they're your biggest fan, They're not necessarily going

663
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,920
to come out and see you every single weekend. So

664
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,559
so at a certain point, you know, being more selective

665
00:36:33,559 --> 00:36:36,159
about what you're doing, I think is a sound strategy.

666
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,639
Speaker 12: Yeah. We we could play out every week, you know,

667
00:36:40,679 --> 00:36:43,480
if we wanted to, and uh, you know it, even

668
00:36:43,519 --> 00:36:47,480
though we have day jobs and you know, other responsibilities,

669
00:36:47,599 --> 00:36:50,159
we could still do it. But you know, we just

670
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,159
really choose not to. Just we try to make it

671
00:36:52,639 --> 00:36:54,760
a little more special by spacing it out some.

672
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, now that makes sense, have you guys?

673
00:36:58,159 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 12: We wish we could. We'd love to go out there

674
00:37:00,199 --> 00:37:02,159
to play in Massachusetts though. That would be awesome.

675
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,760
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, yeah, it'd be What would be really cool

676
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,039
is if you and Warhog went on tour together and

677
00:37:07,159 --> 00:37:11,599
you and that'd be so cool.

678
00:37:12,079 --> 00:37:15,760
Speaker 12: Uh, but is there is there are there any metal

679
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,280
festivals up there in that part of the country.

680
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm trying to think of.

681
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 12: Though, the Maryland Metal fest.

682
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm trying to think of what might be coming up.

683
00:37:32,639 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: The thing.

684
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 7: The thing with festivals, you know, a lot of them

685
00:37:35,039 --> 00:37:37,719
have come and gone over the years, especially over the

686
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,079
last few years as touring has become harder for for

687
00:37:41,159 --> 00:37:43,239
a lot of people. I'm trying to think of what's

688
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,519
what might be even coming up this u like the

689
00:37:45,639 --> 00:37:47,719
summer or something. But I don't know, I'm kind of

690
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,920
I'm kind of drawing a blank. I have to think

691
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,280
on that. But yeah, maybe there might be something going

692
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:54,159
on up here. Maybe you guys could get up to sometimes.

693
00:37:54,159 --> 00:37:56,280
Who knows that would be That would be very very cool.

694
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:58,800
Speaker 1: We can we stay at your house?

695
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 7: I don't know. Well, I'll tell you what. So we yeah,

696
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,599
we'll we'll put you in uh, we'll put you in

00:38:04,639 --> 00:38:09,119
the room with DJ Reckless yep, a little bit of

698
00:38:09,159 --> 00:38:11,719
a but uh, but we'll we'll put you We have

699
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,039

You'd love him. But there you go, there you go?

701
00:38:20,039 --> 00:38:22,639
Speaker 12: Now what so Matt so so, Matt how did you, uh,

702
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:24,639
how did Warhog come on to your radar?

703
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,079
Speaker 7: I was trying to figure out as we were talking

704
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:32,000
who we met. So Mike Woolsey is that Jenny?

705
00:38:32,119 --> 00:38:34,199
Speaker 6: Is that how how we started it all?

706
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,039
Speaker 7: He started it all as far as Taxi, right.

707
00:38:36,119 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 9: I remember you guys having that conversation the last time

708
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,119
you spoke to Rick a year or two.

709
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 12: Yeah, he was in a band called uh moon Falling

710
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,280
at the time, I think, or uh.

711
00:38:47,639 --> 00:38:51,119
Speaker 1: Moon Fallen is his current band.

712
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,039
Speaker 12: Yep, yeah, Okay, he was in a different band back then,

713
00:38:54,079 --> 00:38:56,679
but he told you about us, and that's how, uh

714
00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:00,639
you we got in touch. Is it the same thing

715
00:39:00,679 --> 00:39:01,239
with the Warhog?

716
00:39:01,599 --> 00:39:04,840
Speaker 7: I believe so, yeah, I think. Yeah, Mike, Mike.

717
00:39:04,679 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 12: Woosley, he's a one man promotion machine.

718
00:39:07,039 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mike, Mike's that guy.

719
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,519
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, No, he sends me awesome artists. Yeah, he's great.

720
00:39:12,599 --> 00:39:15,519
And yeah, everyone everyone he's sent us. We've been very

721
00:39:15,559 --> 00:39:19,559
happy about and grateful for you guys and Warhog and

722
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,000
and there's been others from Texas that we've talked to.

723
00:39:22,119 --> 00:39:24,880
And that's why too, I'm so interested in the scene

724
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,639
there because it's just there's a lot of great music

725
00:39:27,679 --> 00:39:29,679
coming out of that area, no doubt about it. So

726
00:39:30,599 --> 00:39:31,559
really really digging that.

727
00:39:33,159 --> 00:39:36,320
Speaker 12: But very similar to us Massachusetts.

728
00:39:37,599 --> 00:39:40,559
Speaker 9: Well, I was gonna say, Warhol is very similar to us.

729
00:39:40,599 --> 00:39:43,320
And they're constantly putting That's how they caught my eye,

730
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:44,599
and that's I was like. I was like, man, we

731
00:39:44,679 --> 00:39:46,559
need to we need to get together with these guys

732
00:39:46,639 --> 00:39:48,239
and do some shows. And we keep trying to do it,

733
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,039
and you know, maybe, like I said, this summer, but

734
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,800
they're very similar to us where they they're always producing content.

735
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:55,599
You know, yeah, they're always putting something out every few

736
00:39:55,679 --> 00:39:58,559
months and completely promoting in there.

737
00:39:58,639 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 1: Those those guys play constantly.

738
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,119
Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, they wanted to We had

739
00:40:02,159 --> 00:40:02,760
an opening for.

740
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,800
Speaker 9: Our show and I was like, uh, you're gonna play

741
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,800
at the same venue the week before and then the

742
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:08,360
week after.

743
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:12,320
Speaker 1: That you're playing with vin them inc. So we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll.

744
00:40:12,159 --> 00:40:16,199
Speaker 2: Get together another time. You guys are oversaturated this month.

745
00:40:16,679 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 9: So uh so they're at that stage right now where

746
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,039
they're playing everything they can and but you know, I'm

747
00:40:21,079 --> 00:40:21,880
gonna be proud of them there.

748
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,199
Speaker 2: They made it to the next level of the Battle

749
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:25,679
of the Band for Vakin.

750
00:40:25,519 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 7: So oh yeah, it'd be awesome.

751
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: They made that.

752
00:40:29,079 --> 00:40:31,760
Speaker 7: That's very cool. Yeah, I didn't know about that, venam inc.

753
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,039
I think we had that one, didn't we have them too, Jenny?

754
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,960
Did we have Venaming on the show? I think so? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah?

755
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:40,239
Another uh? Another great band? But now what what? What's

756
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,559
next for you guys? Do you have another video coming out?

757
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,000

for all of these yet, have you? Or have you?

759
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,559
Speaker 9: We did videos for everything, but one song, Oh, Bury

760
00:40:53,599 --> 00:40:56,159
the Snake, was the the one we decided we weren't

761
00:40:56,159 --> 00:40:56,440
gonna do it.

762
00:40:56,519 --> 00:40:58,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna you know, it's one of those if you

763
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,880

that song. I love that song. But again, you know,

769
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,320
I like the Kiss influence too. Kiss is my favorite band,

770
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,880
so I appreciate the It's fun to listen to it

771
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,079
and imagine Gene Simmons singing it was I can I

772
00:41:21,119 --> 00:41:24,440
can totally picture. But uh, and then are you? Are

773
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,519
you guys already thinking about the Are you thinking about

775
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,559
as you know, you guys have a lot of ideas.

776
00:41:30,599 --> 00:41:32,440
I'm sure you're probably already writing stuff.

00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 12: Yeah, we're we're gonna we're gonna get together probably next

Speaker 12: I got a couple of things put together already, and

781

783
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:52,400
banging them out, uh, you know, putting the songs into shape. Uh.

784
00:41:52,679 --> 00:41:56,960
And then and then the vocals will come uh. Last,

785
00:41:57,119 --> 00:41:59,599
you know, we'll uh Todd will either have some lyrics

786
00:41:59,679 --> 00:42:02,400
or I'll have some lyrics, and we'll see what fits

787
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,920
with the music, and you know, try to crank up

788
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,840

00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,119
out of the Texas music scene there.

876
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,800

thank everyone who joined us today. Of course, so yon

00:51:49,199 --> 00:51:51,119

family emergency, but we will reschedule him. But we did

934
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:56,440
open today with the American radio premiere of his new

935
00:51:56,559 --> 00:51:59,719
track Warmongers, which I absolutely love. You'll be hearing that

936
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,440
again in the future. In the second hour, of course.

937
00:52:02,559 --> 00:52:07,280
John Denton another great UK artists, so American radio premiere

938
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:14,039
of his newest track, and also Sean Manchester who joined

939
00:52:14,119 --> 00:52:16,559
us from who drove down from Maine. And of course

940
00:52:16,599 --> 00:52:19,000
we had the new Elijah Jenkins American radio premiere for

941
00:52:19,159 --> 00:52:22,199
Stay Tonight, and we have one more premiere and don't

942
00:52:22,199 --> 00:52:24,639
forget Iron Jaw. Of course, always loved talking to those

943
00:52:24,679 --> 00:52:26,199
guys and playing some of their I think we had

944
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,679
already played those tracks on the show, so though that

945
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:31,599
were not technically premiers, but getting to talk to them

946
00:52:31,679 --> 00:52:34,360
is always a great time and love those guys. Make

947
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:37,199
sure you follow them online and they make great music

948
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,880
videos too. But that music will get your blood pump,

949
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:41,840
and no doubt about it. We're going to close out

950
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,119
today we have a world radio premiere. This has not

951
00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:48,039
been heard on any radio station anywhere. The track dropped

952
00:52:48,159 --> 00:52:50,360
this week on streaming platforms, but this will be the

953
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,039
first time on the radio. Our friend Gary Smith sent it.

954
00:52:53,159 --> 00:52:56,440
Gary Smith, who's in I don't know seventeen different projects.

955
00:52:56,559 --> 00:53:00,320
He's one of the busiest and enormously talented musicians we

956
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,000
know we always love having him on. But the track

957
00:53:03,159 --> 00:53:06,800
is and this is released under his moniker Percussive Maintenance.

958
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:11,559
The track is called Confluence. So this features Gary Smith

959
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:15,320
of Percussive Maintenance and Fox and the Flamingos and various

960
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:19,800
projects and also Aaron Cream of Leon Trout on the

961
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:23,199
track as well. So we will close out Matt Connorton

962
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:26,119
unleashed with this. This is a world radio premiere. If

963
00:53:26,159 --> 00:53:28,039
you missed any part of today's show though, it will

964
00:53:28,079 --> 00:53:30,719
