August twenty four, two thousand and twenty four, and joining

36
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,199
us live in studio, we do have the members of

37
00:04:18,439 --> 00:04:21,279
Under the Horizon. We have Matt Jordan and is he

38
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:27,120
did I get everyone's name correctly? Yes? Welcome, welcome, and Matt,

39
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,279
you've got a proud, proud papa in studio with you. Yes,

40
00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:33,759
he doesn't want to be on a microphone. But I

41
00:04:33,879 --> 00:04:36,120
know this man very well from back in the day. Yes,

42
00:04:36,759 --> 00:04:38,680
wonderful to see him. And he looks and he looks

43
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,360
the same. He hasn't changed, which is cool.

44
00:04:40,519 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 8: I get that a lot. Actually, I hear that he

45
00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:44,519
looks pretty similar other than the.

46
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 5: Hair, right right, Well, yeah, that's that's true of all

47
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:50,279
of us. But right, but because when I run into people,

48
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,240
when I see people I haven't seen in a really

49
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,240
long time, I just expect them to be like, you know,

50
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,720
not the same. Sure, but he looks the same, which

51
00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:04,879
is the which is which is really cool. But uh no,

52
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,160
I love that track. Now the three well, actually, so

53
00:05:08,439 --> 00:05:10,079
what does everybody do in the band? So, Matt, you're the.

54
00:05:10,079 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 4: Drummer, Yes, I am drummer and vocalist.

55
00:05:12,079 --> 00:05:15,639
Speaker 5: Drummer and vocalist and Jordan guitarists, some vocals and some

56
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:20,680
vocals and vocalists. Okay, that's now. What's interesting about that

57
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,639
is so and you probably hear this all the time.

58
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,319
There's not a lot of singing bass players for whatever

59
00:05:26,399 --> 00:05:28,480
reason the sun. But we were talking about that with

60
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,519
our our guests in the previous hour, Ian Hemy his

61
00:05:32,639 --> 00:05:36,279
project Silicon Kong. He's a singing bass player, but it's

62
00:05:36,319 --> 00:05:39,600
not something you see a lot of for for whatever reason.

63
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,000
But so, yeah, is it Is it just the three

64
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,240
of you on all the recordings because you sound for

65
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,360
a three piece and you probably hear this a lot too,

66
00:05:48,439 --> 00:05:51,720
but for a trio, you got a big sound.

67
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,439
Speaker 8: Right, Yeah, Yeah, it's just the three of us, and

68
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,199
we kind of we thought about adding like another guitars

69
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:02,120
into the mix, you know, like a lot of bands

70
00:06:02,199 --> 00:06:05,040
that rhath them in a lead guitarist. But part of

71
00:06:05,079 --> 00:06:07,360
the reason why we started this band was because we

72
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,519
were aggravated with the difficulties of our previous bands. That

73
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,160
we were already in, so we're like, we don't want

74
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:14,839
to add anyone to complicate the mix.

75
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:15,319
Speaker 5: Yeah.

76
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 8: So yeah, it's just the three of us. We all

77
00:06:20,439 --> 00:06:24,800
really trying to kind of work together to create our sound,

78
00:06:24,879 --> 00:06:27,160
and on the album, we wanted, like you said, a

79
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,439
big sound, but we also wanted it to not sound

80
00:06:30,759 --> 00:06:33,360
impossible to achieve live, you know what I mean.

81
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, is that ever a challenge?

82
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:37,199
Speaker 4: I don't.

83
00:06:38,759 --> 00:06:42,079
Speaker 9: I mean there's definitely, there's definitely sometimes where like it

84
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,680
feels a little different, but for the most part, it

85
00:06:45,759 --> 00:06:47,439
seems pretty full like live.

86
00:06:47,759 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, which is cool.

87
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, that is that is By the way, I have

88
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,959
to compliment you well, I think I mentioned it too

89
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,920
when you walked in. But your shirt Ace Frehley thing.

90
00:06:57,399 --> 00:07:00,600
Kiss is my all time favorite band and I love Ace.

91
00:07:00,759 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 9: Yeah.

92
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, oh very cool, very cool. Yeah, ten thousand volts.

93
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,240
I remember when that came out and it people were

94
00:07:07,319 --> 00:07:09,399
kind of surprised that it was as successful as it was.

95
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 9: You know, I mean it sounded was it compared to

96
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,800
his last albums, Like it sounded a little different. It

97
00:07:15,839 --> 00:07:17,920
had a different vibe to it. Yeah, how I was

98
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,040
produced and stuff, and his voice was a lot more.

99
00:07:20,839 --> 00:07:22,800
It seemed like he was doing a lot more actual

100
00:07:22,879 --> 00:07:27,040
thinging than talking into the bike and being like New York.

101
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 5: York, right right, I agree, I agree? So how long

102
00:07:32,079 --> 00:07:34,160
has this existed? This spand how long have the three

103
00:07:34,199 --> 00:07:35,160
of you been been doing this?

104
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,439
Speaker 10: Almost a year now, like I think late September will

105
00:07:38,439 --> 00:07:38,879
be a year.

106
00:07:39,079 --> 00:07:42,519
Speaker 5: So okay, well that's impressive that you know it's it's

107
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,639
been under a year and you've already got how many

108
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:45,839
tracks are on the album? Nine?

109
00:07:46,079 --> 00:07:46,319
Speaker 2: Nine?

110
00:07:46,759 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 4: Yeah?

111
00:07:47,319 --> 00:07:49,959
Speaker 5: And oh and for people watching online here, let me

112
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,160
put the overhead camera on so I can show so

113
00:07:54,639 --> 00:07:56,920
Mike gave me a copy of this under the horizon,

114
00:07:57,079 --> 00:07:59,879
and uh, I'll kind of hold that up for the camera.

115
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,600
Probably i'll hold it up in pictures too afterward. But

116
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,519
who did the I like the artwork? Who did the artwork?

117
00:08:07,279 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 8: I mean, I guess I guess I would be the

118
00:08:10,519 --> 00:08:15,959
culprit of that, but it wasn't. I will admit we

119
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:21,040
didn't like hand draw that We used AI because I

120
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,519
saw a lot of the stuff that people were doing

121
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,160
with AI, creating images and all that, and I liked

122
00:08:26,199 --> 00:08:31,160
how it could create a somewhat surreal scenario, like almost

123
00:08:31,199 --> 00:08:33,840
something you would see in a dream because it's not perfect,

124
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:39,360
you know, it's it's different, nothing's exact, everything's a little

125
00:08:40,039 --> 00:08:44,759
mismatched and all that. So we used we came up

126
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,679
with that or we got that from AI when we

127
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,639
were trying to figure out album covers and we just

128
00:08:52,759 --> 00:08:54,799
really liked it and we're like, you know what, let's

129
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,440
embrace this new technology here.

130
00:08:57,799 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 4: And that's what you see on the album cover there.

131
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 10: There is artwork though on the actual disc.

132
00:09:03,159 --> 00:09:08,879
Speaker 5: Yes, oh no kidding, okay, yeah, okay, cool. I'm such

133
00:09:08,919 --> 00:09:10,360
a nerd for this stuff. Do you remember, like what

134
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,799
kind of prompts you used to get that? Do you remember?

135
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 3: So?

136
00:09:15,879 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 4: I think it was like a.

137
00:09:18,919 --> 00:09:22,039
Speaker 8: It was like a setting called like Halloween, oh themed

138
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,120
or something like that, because we wanted to go something

139
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,120
like kind of gothy, kind of metal, kind of you know,

140
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,360
to fit with our sound. So I got that and

141
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,279
I got a couple of images and I sent them

142
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,480
all to the band and they were like, yeah, we

143
00:09:34,639 --> 00:09:37,759
like that one. So yeah, just ended up being the cover.

144
00:09:38,519 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I dig it. I know that's an odd question.

145
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,000
Probably you know, you don't expect to be asked, you know,

146
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,320
what kind of prompts did you use?

147
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 10: I think It's a good question because I didn't know

148
00:09:48,519 --> 00:09:48,799
that you.

149
00:09:48,879 --> 00:09:53,039
Speaker 5: Had to do. Yeah. Yeah, we're so fascinated around here

150
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,200
by AI in general. It's something Jenny and I talked

151
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,799
about a lot on the show is AI and the

152
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,279
impact on the music industry and how people are using

153
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,159
it to create And No, that's very very cool. Where

154
00:10:02,279 --> 00:10:04,840
was the where's the picture on the back of course

155
00:10:04,879 --> 00:10:06,399
as a band photo? Where was that taken?

156
00:10:06,919 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 4: My backyard?

157
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:08,159
Speaker 5: Yeah?

158
00:10:09,759 --> 00:10:13,039
Speaker 8: Yeah, we were taking that was before we filmed the

159
00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:16,519
video for our song Orches in the Sunrise, and we

160
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,799
were just like, let's take band pictures, you know, because

161
00:10:19,799 --> 00:10:23,120
we're all done up or whatever and nice clothes or

162
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,080
metal clothes, whatever you want to say. Yeah, And we

163
00:10:26,159 --> 00:10:28,360
were just going around my house taking photos and we

164
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,000
went out back to that truck that I'm leaning up against.

165
00:10:32,039 --> 00:10:34,679
That's a project truck of mine that I'm working on,

166
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,039
and we were just random took the picture and we

167
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,879
were looking through and we're like, wow, that's actually a

168
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,679
really good photo of us. Let's use that on the

169
00:10:41,759 --> 00:10:42,240
back cover.

170
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:42,759
Speaker 9: Yeah.

171
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:43,159
Speaker 3: Yeah.

172
00:10:44,279 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 5: Oh, we had a question I don't want to forget too,

173
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,519
and Jenny mentioned it. There's a question in the chat room.

174
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,399
Alan McIntyre joins us in the chat and says, ask,

175
00:10:54,639 --> 00:10:56,960
is he what her favorite song by Vixen is?

176
00:10:57,879 --> 00:11:01,519
Speaker 4: Lol, it's between us.

177
00:11:01,799 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 5: You don't have a favorite Vixen song? How dare you?

178
00:11:05,399 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 10: I did get to meet Britt Lightning though, did you?

179
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 5: Yeah?

180
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 10: In February?

181
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, Oh, because they just played at uh they was

182
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,000
it at the Tupelo. They just played there, right, because

183
00:11:15,039 --> 00:11:17,840
it was because we had a band on, Purging Sin.

184
00:11:17,879 --> 00:11:19,120
I don't know if you know Purging Sin.

185
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 6: Yeah.

186
00:11:20,279 --> 00:11:22,799
Speaker 5: Actually they they opened they when they were here on

187
00:11:22,879 --> 00:11:24,320
the show a couple of months ago. They were talking

188
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,720
about opening for Vixen, which was weird. Weird to me

189
00:11:28,039 --> 00:11:32,759
because Purging Sin they're very dark and heavy. Yeah, and uh,

190
00:11:32,919 --> 00:11:37,000
I'm like, you you did, but I think that they did,

191
00:11:37,039 --> 00:11:39,919
and I think it was at the Tupelo. But uh, yeah,

192
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,039
so you met Britt Lightning?

193
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: Yeah?

194
00:11:41,639 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 10: I did, like this rock and roll fantasy camp in

195
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,000
l A. Yeah, to meet like people who actually made

196
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,039
it in the industry, Like.

197
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 5: So you you went to one of those? Oh no kidding.

198
00:11:52,399 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 10: I got to meet Nancy Wilson as well.

199
00:11:54,879 --> 00:11:59,159
Speaker 5: Oh wow, I was gonna say, yeah, she must be yeah, yeah,

200
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,559
who else? Who else was there?

201
00:12:02,399 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 10: I mean there was like a really good handful. There

202
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,480
was a couple of people like that were there. To me,

203
00:12:07,919 --> 00:12:16,320
like they had the brothers of St. P. And I

204
00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:21,600
mean also some of the counselors that were there. Yeah,

205
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,240
I mean there's a lot of good people. There was

206
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,600
a basis of La Guns. His name is Johnny Martin. Yeah,

207
00:12:28,639 --> 00:12:31,799
he was like a kind of the person who ran

208
00:12:31,919 --> 00:12:34,559
my little group because we had there was a couple

209
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,320
of bands that we uh at the camp and we

210
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,639
played at the Viper Room and the Tribudour.

211
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 5: Oh yeah. I always see I see videos of these

212
00:12:46,039 --> 00:12:48,639
these rock and roll fantasy camps online and they look

213
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,679
they look really fun. So what so when you say

214
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,360
you're a little group, so what what? What did they

215
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,200
divide everyone into groups and then you had like one

216
00:12:57,279 --> 00:13:01,240
of these one of these famous rock stars kind of

217
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,840
runs the group and and uh and then what is

218
00:13:03,879 --> 00:13:06,399
there is there a process of like you all write

219
00:13:06,399 --> 00:13:09,080
a song together or no, we more just like.

220
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,039
Speaker 10: Pick a couple of songs to work on between, like

221
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:12,440
like it's about four days.

222
00:13:12,799 --> 00:13:14,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, and we performed them.

223
00:13:14,399 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 10: I mean I was with the other teenagers. Okay, we're

224
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:17,919
all teens.

225
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:18,759
Speaker 5: Oh very cool?

226
00:13:18,919 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 4: Is it?

227
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 5: How many days, is it?

228
00:13:21,039 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 10: I think mine was four days?

229
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 5: Oh no kidding, Wow, that's wild, that's wild. What uh

230
00:13:29,879 --> 00:13:31,919
why did you? Why did you like? What motivated you

231
00:13:32,039 --> 00:13:33,399
to to go and and do that?

232
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,759
Speaker 10: Well? I actually had gotten it as a gift, but

233
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,480
oh mostly to meet Nancy Wilson.

234
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, huge, Yeah, Yeah, that's that's very cool.

235
00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:43,799
Speaker 3: Is she?

236
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,159
Speaker 5: I mean, is she an influence on you vocally? Or

237
00:13:48,399 --> 00:13:50,159
I mean I would think Anne Wilson would probably be

238
00:13:50,759 --> 00:13:55,039
a big influence. Yeah, huge, yeah, yeah, no doubt. Who

239
00:13:55,279 --> 00:13:57,679
else has an influence on you in terms of your vocals?

240
00:13:57,879 --> 00:14:01,159
Speaker 10: I would say, uh, Pat bennettar a lot and a

241
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:02,320
bit of Jon Jet as well.

242
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 5: Really yeah, yeah, oh that's cool. That's cool. Now what

243
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,120
about you, Jordan in terms of obviously A's Frehley, Yeah,

244
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,639
a big influence. Who else influences you on guitar?

245
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 9: In terms of a guitar, I'd say like some van Halen, Yeah,

246
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,720
Eddie van Halen definitely really influential, all the tapping and

247
00:14:19,799 --> 00:14:22,919
all that stuff. I've gotten some things about how there's

248
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,840
Randy Rhodes type stuff my guitar playing, which like I

249
00:14:26,919 --> 00:14:31,120
do like Randy Rhodes, so i'd say him too.

250
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, Kirk Hammett, you know people like that.

251
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 9: Yeah, they I think what makes them so special is

252
00:14:38,399 --> 00:14:42,200
they take sometimes they can take fairly simple things and

253
00:14:42,279 --> 00:14:44,000
they'll put it in the song as a solo and

254
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,600
make it fit, which is like a pretty good skill

255
00:14:46,679 --> 00:14:48,919
to have, you know, like, just because it's fast and

256
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,320
flashy doesn't mean it's good.

257
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,519
Speaker 5: You know, right right, Yeah, No, I know what you mean,

258
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,320
and I can hear. I can hear the Kirk Hammett

259
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,080
and your solos. I can definitely hear that.

260
00:14:56,279 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 9: Yeah.

261
00:14:56,919 --> 00:14:59,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, what about you, Matt as far as drums and

262
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:01,919
or vocal because you sing too.

263
00:15:01,919 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 8: Right, Yeah, oh god, there's a lot. I mean, my

264
00:15:06,159 --> 00:15:09,039
primary influence for drums, I mean a lot of people

265
00:15:09,159 --> 00:15:11,720
laugh when I say it, but I'll say because it's true. Uh,

266
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,000
it's Lars Ulrik from Metallica. I saw Metallica when I

267
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,600
was like ten, and for some reason, something about Lars

268
00:15:19,679 --> 00:15:21,440
up on stage behind the drum set, it.

269
00:15:21,559 --> 00:15:23,159
Speaker 4: Just really inspired me to play.

270
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 8: Yeah, so then I picked it up, and I mean

271
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,039
I'm influenced by him and Joey Jordison A slip nood,

272
00:15:30,159 --> 00:15:33,639
all the drummers a slip nood. Really, they're all great Vinny,

273
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:38,120
Paul neil Pert, you know, all the good guys who

274
00:15:39,279 --> 00:15:41,080
give you a lot to listen to on the drum set,

275
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,799
right right. Yeah, And vocally, i'd say my primary influences

276
00:15:45,919 --> 00:15:49,600
are James Hetfield and Corey Taylor.

277
00:15:50,039 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, I can hear the Corey Taylor.

278
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:54,879
Speaker 4: Oh thank you. I appreciate it.

279
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:00,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, definitely. And in terms of the songwriting, I mean,

280
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,799
how how does that work in the span? Do all

281
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,080
write together? Does somebody bring in an idea and you

282
00:16:04,679 --> 00:16:05,919
I think what happened?

283
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's a mix of It's definitely like one person

284
00:16:10,559 --> 00:16:13,360
will come in with lyrics or they'll have Like with

285
00:16:13,519 --> 00:16:16,679
Izzy Want You, she had the lyrics and she had

286
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,480
the you know bass notes, you know, whatever the notes were,

287
00:16:21,559 --> 00:16:23,840
and I was like, it kind of just formed together.

288
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,759
He came up with this drum part on the spot.

289
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,000
I made my own guitar part, and we kind of

290
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,600
just experimented a couple of times, ran it, you know

291
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,480
through three or four times, maybe that quick.

292
00:16:35,759 --> 00:16:38,919
Speaker 6: Yeah, it comes together really fast. It's surprising.

293
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 5: Well that's that's when you know you've really got something right.

294
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,200
The song's coming together quickly, and then you know you

295
00:16:43,279 --> 00:16:44,600
know you've got that that magic.

296
00:16:44,759 --> 00:16:44,879
Speaker 4: You know.

297
00:16:45,799 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I assume some of these songs because you know,

298
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,799
some of them are you know, that's a fairly straightforward song.

299
00:16:51,879 --> 00:16:54,360
But some of them are are pretty complex. I mean,

300
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,039
I would imagine the more complex ones take longer or

301
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:57,480
maybe not.

302
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,399
Speaker 8: I mean, realistically, all the songs that we have wrote,

303
00:17:01,679 --> 00:17:05,960
I mean, we're at max took us an hour to

304
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,240
write and get fully played with, you know, all of

305
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,640
us together, or at the very least the instrumental part

306
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,240
of it. Obviously, lyrics come later with some songs, but

307
00:17:17,279 --> 00:17:19,960
I mean most of the stuff that we have done,

308
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,359
I mean there were days that we wrote three or

309
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,319
four songs in a day within the span of a

310
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:27,359
four hour practice.

311
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, it wasn't it Like it was better in

312
00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:33,079
and out? And I'm pretty sure it was. It might

313
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,920
have been within my eyes. I'm not sure though, Yeah, something. Yeah,

314
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,640
because we all, you know, because we were all three

315
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,519
of us used to be in cover bands. Yeah, Me

316
00:17:43,599 --> 00:17:46,440
and Jordan were in a cover band together, and Izzy

317
00:17:46,599 --> 00:17:49,440
was in a cover band. And actually how me and

318
00:17:49,519 --> 00:17:52,720
Izzy met was that both of our cover bands played

319
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,480
in a Battle of the Bands together. Oh wow, and

320
00:17:56,599 --> 00:17:59,480
we both met up afterwards I'm like, hey, you're really

321
00:17:59,519 --> 00:18:02,680
good atvocals, and she's like, yeah, you're really good at drums.

322
00:18:02,759 --> 00:18:05,039
So we just kind of like okay, And then years

323
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:09,559
later we decided let's form something here. So we were

324
00:18:09,559 --> 00:18:11,240
in our own cover band, so we had all this

325
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,400
time to come up with these riffs and songs and

326
00:18:14,559 --> 00:18:17,519
lyrics and stuff for the day that we were eventually

327
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,799
in an original band, but we wanted to be in

328
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,279
So it all came together really quickly. And I mean

329
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,759
we've already started writing for the second album. We have

330
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,680
like half of it already, no kidding.

331
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,559
Speaker 10: Wow, I'd say we wrote most of our songs, Like

332
00:18:30,599 --> 00:18:33,200
we wrote the eight songs that we have the original

333
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,799
within like three or four months, no kidding. Yeah, we

334
00:18:37,599 --> 00:18:41,079
started recording in April, so right, yeah, yeah, three months

335
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:42,119
I think yep.

336
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 5: Oh, by the way, talking about influences, somebody in the

337
00:18:45,039 --> 00:18:48,400
chat room made me realize I think it was I

338
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:53,319
think it was Alan McIntyre. Oh, yeah, mentioned I never

339
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,839
asked you about bass. I'm a bass player, so I

340
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,839
can't believe I forgot to ask you about your influences

341
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:01,559
on base. I am curious.

342
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 10: I mean, I guess, like my basslines aren't really too

343
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,880
complex because I'd say I do vocal like I focus

344
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:08,759
more on the vocals.

345
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, per se.

346
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 10: I mean there are a lot of great bassis that

347
00:19:11,799 --> 00:19:14,599
I love, but it is a bit difficult to sing

348
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,880
and play the bass, which is why I feel you

349
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,319
find a lot less.

350
00:19:19,279 --> 00:19:23,519
Speaker 5: And vocalists interesting. Yeah see keep it fairly simple, Yeah yeah, yeah,

351
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,559
what about like do you approach it any differently? Like

352
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,920
if if Matt's singing, do you approach that any differently

353
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,680
as far as your bass or do you.

354
00:19:33,039 --> 00:19:36,839
Speaker 10: I mean like as of like like our first album,

355
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,480
it's still not too complex, but I'm definitely getting more

356
00:19:40,559 --> 00:19:43,880
into the creative writing for basslines.

357
00:19:44,039 --> 00:19:49,319
Speaker 5: Okay, Isaac Banks is asking, uh, and this isn't anyone

358
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,440
you would know? We we, Jenny and I are very

359
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:57,200
familiar with Isaac Banks, aren't we? Isaac Banks is asking

360
00:19:57,599 --> 00:19:59,920
is he? Who are your influence?

361
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:00,160
Speaker 1: Is?

362
00:20:00,319 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 5: What's your favorite Evanescence song? Do you have a favorite

363
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,359
Evanescence song? Probably more likely that you have a favorite

364
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:07,519
Evanescence than Vixen.

365
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 10: Right now, it's going under. I love that song vocally,

366
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:14,839
It's amazing.

367
00:20:15,039 --> 00:20:17,799
Speaker 5: Yeah. No, Amy Lee's a great She's a great singer. Definitely,

368
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:22,640
absolutely absolutely. Now in terms of in terms of the

369
00:20:22,759 --> 00:20:26,799
band and like, do you all as a band, do

370
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,119
you have a particular vibe or a particular sound that

371
00:20:30,279 --> 00:20:34,160
you try to achieve or is it more it's organic?

372
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,559
It's how does that? How does that work?

373
00:20:36,799 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 10: I mean, I think you have a various amount of sounds.

374
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,200
All of her songs are kind of different, but they

375
00:20:42,279 --> 00:20:44,759
all still sound like they're made by us.

376
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 5: Yeah.

377
00:20:46,319 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think my dad he was.

378
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,279
Speaker 9: I think he might have been like one of the

379
00:20:51,319 --> 00:20:53,279
first people to be like yeah, I mean all the

380
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,680
songs are like really unique, but they all have a

381
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,599
specific touch to them that makes it like ident you know,

382
00:21:00,039 --> 00:21:01,759
has some identification to us.

383
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 4: Yeahich is like great.

384
00:21:04,079 --> 00:21:04,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, we have a.

385
00:21:04,799 --> 00:21:08,079
Speaker 9: Different sound on every song, which makes the album seem

386
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,599
a little more like experimental, I guess.

387
00:21:11,039 --> 00:21:13,640
Speaker 4: But you can still be like, oh yeah, this is

388
00:21:13,759 --> 00:21:14,480
that one band.

389
00:21:14,519 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 9: It's not like there's features on the band or random

390
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,680
people just coming in and playing songs or songs.

391
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it's definitely.

392
00:21:25,079 --> 00:21:29,799
Speaker 8: I'd say that our sound is definitely more metal focused,

393
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,640
or at least we're you know, aiming to be more

394
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,480
considered a metal band. But even then, you know, we

395
00:21:36,039 --> 00:21:38,559
have a lot of influences outside of you know, the

396
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,079
basic rock and metal, but even within that, we like

397
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,240
bands that often you know, you wouldn't picture their fans

398
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,079
being in the same room, right, you know what I mean.

399
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,839
I don't think there's a lot of dinner parties happening

400
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:57,920
with Heart fans, Kiss fans and like, I don't know,

401
00:21:58,319 --> 00:22:00,680
Slayer fans or something like that. You know, I'm using

402
00:22:00,759 --> 00:22:03,519
that as an example, but I mean, I think from

403
00:22:03,599 --> 00:22:07,160
the beginning, with all our influences combined, we kind of

404
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:12,720
tried to create something like if Heart was written by

405
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,880
like Slipknot or something like that, you know, something heavy

406
00:22:17,039 --> 00:22:19,720
but with a little bit of like glam Edge of

407
00:22:19,799 --> 00:22:22,240
the Past or something like that. You know, something a

408
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,000
sound that most people can listen to. You know, we'd

409
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,720
you know, kind of like your second ever metal band

410
00:22:28,759 --> 00:22:30,599
you're listening to or whatever, something like that.

411
00:22:30,839 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 4: You know what I mean?

412
00:22:32,559 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 5: Well, what I think too is cool about about your

413
00:22:35,519 --> 00:22:38,599
sound and a band like this is there's a timelessness

414
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,680
to it because you know, if you if you just

415
00:22:41,759 --> 00:22:44,720
played this for me and I didn't know anything about you,

416
00:22:44,839 --> 00:22:46,759
and you said, when do you think this was recorded?

417
00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:50,839
I wouldn't know, you know, it's it could have been yesterday,

418
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,559
it could have been thirty years ago. There's there's a

419
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,000
timelessness to it that I think is really cool. Well,

420
00:22:57,079 --> 00:23:00,960
thank you, yeah, oh absolutely. Are you playing a lot

421
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,880
of shows? Are you doing a lot of live stuff

422
00:23:03,039 --> 00:23:04,160
or yeah?

423
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 8: Actually, funny enough, we're doing a show tonight. You were

426
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,960

00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,079
love Day to Attend? We've had them on a couple

428
00:23:18,079 --> 00:23:20,640

429
00:23:22,079 --> 00:23:25,279
the new album is so good. Yeah, it's so good

430
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,279
that they have this one song not coming back. It

431
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,440
gets stuck in my head, like some days I wake

432
00:23:30,519 --> 00:23:33,240
up with it in my brain. Yeah, I love Sorry,

433
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:34,599

469
00:25:08,839 --> 00:25:10,759
wonderful shirt. I love it. So is that your official

470
00:25:10,839 --> 00:25:11,640
logo on the shirt?

471
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,599
Speaker 8: Oh, that's a that's a little bit of a complicated

472
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,160
situation there that I well, I mean, I guess so. Yeah,

473
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,160
Like it's kind of like our little I guess mascot.

474
00:25:22,279 --> 00:25:22,839
Speaker 4: You could say, we.

475
00:25:22,839 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 8: Don't even have like a name for it yet or anything,

476
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,680
but it's just something I it's something I honestly like

477
00:25:27,839 --> 00:25:29,960
sketched out in a little piece of notebook paper and

478
00:25:30,039 --> 00:25:30,519
sent to them.

479
00:25:30,599 --> 00:25:33,039
Speaker 4: They're like, we love that. Yeah, yeah, so, yeah, I

480
00:25:33,079 --> 00:25:36,000
guess it's our logo mascot. I don't really know.

481
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 5: I will I will see it in my nightmares this evening.

482
00:25:41,039 --> 00:25:43,799
But no, no, that's cool though. That's cool. Yeah, And

483
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,519
I mean, you know, you've got plenty of time to

484
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,000
you know, over time, you can always maybe come up

485
00:25:48,039 --> 00:25:51,000
with a backstory or whatever, give it a give it

486
00:25:51,079 --> 00:25:55,440
a name, you know, like, yeah, no, that's cool, that's cool.

487
00:25:55,839 --> 00:25:57,519
And I like the Yeah, I like that. Where does

488
00:25:57,559 --> 00:25:59,359
the name come from? By the way, under the horizon?

489
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:07,039
Speaker 9: It's funny, we can't so when we first started to

490
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:08,079
like write originals.

491
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,119
Speaker 6: We were like, yeah, we need a name. We came

492
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,119
up with all these names.

493
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,079
Speaker 9: I think one that I remember is you came up

494
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,559
with just In because you want like new generation of

495
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,160
you know, artists or whatever.

496
00:26:20,039 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 5: I went on, wait, wait, what was it going to be?

497
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 4: It was going to be just In.

498
00:26:26,079 --> 00:26:29,079
Speaker 9: I went on to Google and started up like cool

499
00:26:29,279 --> 00:26:32,680
band names or whatever, and it came up with over

500
00:26:33,039 --> 00:26:35,720
the Horizon or something or over a Horizon.

501
00:26:36,319 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 4: I didn't like that.

502
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:45,039
Speaker 9: Yeah, so I was like under undersounds gloomy, undersounds metal. Yes, yeah,

503
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,039
so and I came back and I was like, hey,

504
00:26:49,279 --> 00:26:51,039
what do you think about under the Horizon?

505
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,160
Speaker 4: And everybody was like, oh, yeah, you know, it's cool,

506
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:54,640
we like it.

507
00:26:55,319 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 9: It wasn't until Izy wrote the title track under the

508
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,400
Horizon we were really like had a meaning behind it.

509
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. Did you did you go

510
00:27:06,079 --> 00:27:07,720
through any others that you kind of could? I love

511
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,640
hearing about rejected band names. Were there were there any others?

512
00:27:10,759 --> 00:27:13,240
Or did that one present itself pretty early?

513
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,519
Speaker 9: I think you had some. I was gonna say, I

514
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,079
feel like I contributed some, but I can't. They must

515
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:20,640
have been so bad that I can't.

516
00:27:21,079 --> 00:27:21,519
Speaker 4: What they are.

517
00:27:22,599 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 6: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna say they were bad.

518
00:27:24,839 --> 00:27:28,480
It was just they were a lot more I don't know,

519
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:29,720
didn't have that ring to it.

520
00:27:29,799 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 4: They didn't have that. They were very like I.

521
00:27:33,279 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 9: Don't want to say stock metal names, but they had

522
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,519
a very like predictable type of name to it. Yeah,

523
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,799
they were cool, but like right, it wasn't what we

524
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,359
were looking for, right, They didn't really fit our style

525
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,400
because I guess to me, with my musical influences, I

526
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:53,599
always thought that the original band that I was going

527
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,400
to end up in was gonna be the next Slayer,

528
00:27:56,519 --> 00:27:59,200
the next Pantera, the next you know whatever.

529
00:27:59,319 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 8: So I came up with all these names with like

530
00:28:01,559 --> 00:28:05,599
blood and like all this you know, angry violent things,

531
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,480
you know what I mean in metal music, And then

532
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,720
you know, here it was like, well, it's not just metal,

533
00:28:10,759 --> 00:28:13,880
it's not just speed, it's not just death, it's not whatever,

534
00:28:14,079 --> 00:28:16,599
you know what I mean, it's all these it's a

535
00:28:18,279 --> 00:28:20,640
what's that word, I don't know, A melting pot of

536
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,400
all our influences. Yeah, yeah, oh a crucible. That's the

537
00:28:25,079 --> 00:28:27,960
ten dollars vocabulary word for that one, right there. Yeah,

538
00:28:28,079 --> 00:28:33,680
well played, sir, of all our musical influences, so my

539
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,079
names didn't really work, but yeah, under the Horizon came

540
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,960
and it was like, yeah, yeah, that fits for us.

541
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,559
Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean part of the challenge too, when when

542
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,519
naming the band is trying to find something that nobody

543
00:28:44,559 --> 00:28:47,559
else already has or you know, so so you don't

544
00:28:47,559 --> 00:28:53,200
get in any trouble. You know, obviously there was a

545
00:28:53,279 --> 00:28:56,160
time and you know he's old enough to remember too,

546
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,000
when you know, when you couldn't just go online and

547
00:28:59,079 --> 00:29:01,480
just google something and just you know, figure out if

548
00:29:01,519 --> 00:29:06,640
somebody else already already has it. So I tell this

549
00:29:06,759 --> 00:29:09,759
story a lot. I went to high school with and

550
00:29:09,839 --> 00:29:14,920
he might even be listening. Xander Carlson really really talented guitarist.

551
00:29:15,319 --> 00:29:17,960
I think he's still active in the scene. But and

552
00:29:18,119 --> 00:29:19,599
he and I were in a band in high school,

553
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,079
just kind of briefly, but I ran into him after

554
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,960
high school and he had a band called he telling

555
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,559
me about this new band he's in. He said, Uh,

556
00:29:27,839 --> 00:29:31,119
it's called Intuition. And he said that to me, and

557
00:29:31,279 --> 00:29:36,880
immediately I'm thinking, God, somebody's intuition. It's too obvious. It's

558
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,359
probably already a thousand bands that are already out there

559
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,799
using that name, and I swear to god, I ran

560
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,559
into him again. I just happened to run into We

561
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:48,160
shopped at the same convenience store. I run into him again,

562
00:29:48,279 --> 00:29:51,000
like six months later, and I asked him how's the band?

563
00:29:51,519 --> 00:29:53,599
And he goes, oh, good, But we had to change

564
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,839
our name because we heard from some cover band in Massachusetts.

565
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,599
They're they're already using the name and they don't want

566
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,119
us using it. And and I, you know, I'm too

567
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,480
polite to say it, but in my mind I'm thinking, yeah,

568
00:30:05,519 --> 00:30:08,599
no kidding, but of course that happened. You called the

569
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:14,400
band intuition, you know, But uh no, but I think

570
00:30:14,519 --> 00:30:18,279
under the Horizons a very very cool name. We should, Uh,

571
00:30:18,359 --> 00:30:21,480
let's play another track? What but I'm gonna put you

572
00:30:21,519 --> 00:30:24,119
on the spot. I'll let you pick what would uh

573
00:30:24,319 --> 00:30:27,920
what would you like to uh to hear next or

574
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,119
to share with the audience?

575
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,319
Speaker 6: Maybe in and out, in and out.

576
00:30:31,559 --> 00:30:33,079
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a good catch you one for all of

577
00:30:33,119 --> 00:30:33,599
you out there.

578
00:30:33,839 --> 00:30:36,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I like that one. I like I said,

579
00:30:36,319 --> 00:30:38,079
I listened to the whole thing, and that's that's also

580
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,599
one of the ones that stood out to me. Are

581
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,480
these all available? Are Are these on Spotify and everything?

582
00:30:44,519 --> 00:30:45,440

583
00:30:46,119 --> 00:30:50,119

don't know.

662
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:24,639
Speaker 6: I think the only other projects that I'm in is

663
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:29,239
a cover band that he's also in, Room three oh one.

664
00:36:30,679 --> 00:36:34,079
Speaker 9: We kind of we covered. I don't really think we

665
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,039
have a specific genre that we stick to. We just

666
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,440
cover whatever is a hit song.

667
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 8: And okay, yeah, yeah, it's a student lead rock cover

668
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,360
band that's actually connected to our high school. Yeah, the

669
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:53,159
high school. When I first came in as a freshman,

670
00:36:53,679 --> 00:36:57,320
it was like just starting out and you know, they're

671
00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,840
playing like you know, Green Day Nirvana, really basic, you know,

672
00:37:01,679 --> 00:37:05,519
intro level stuff. But I could tell that some of

673
00:37:05,559 --> 00:37:09,599
the musicians and there were really good, And to be

674
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,559
honest with you, I saw the drummer they had at

675
00:37:11,599 --> 00:37:14,360
the time, and I didn't really think he was that good.

676
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,320
So I eventually found myself behind the drum set and

677
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:21,400
then the rest was history. So yeah, we're it's a

678
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:25,159
student led rock cover band. So we play at like

679
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,119
all the school band concerts along with you know concert

680
00:37:28,199 --> 00:37:32,320
band and choir. But then we also do stuff like

681
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,920
you know, school festivals, you know, like field days and

682
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,760
stuff like that, and we also do some outside of

683
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:41,320
school gigs. But it's kind of been slowing down a

684
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:45,400
little bit because me and Jordan have been obviously occupied with.

685
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:48,159
Speaker 4: This band here.

686
00:37:48,519 --> 00:37:54,039
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, no, the reason I made the comment about, well,

687
00:37:54,039 --> 00:37:56,079
of course you're another band, you're a drummer, because you know,

688
00:37:56,119 --> 00:37:58,400
it's it's it's it's a subject on the show A

689
00:37:58,519 --> 00:38:02,480
lot every I think it even Actually it even came

690
00:38:02,559 --> 00:38:05,360
up when we were talking with Silicon Kong earlier about

691
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,719
how every drummer is in so many bands and you know,

692
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,079
because drummers are hard to find.

693
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:11,119
Speaker 4: I guess we are.

694
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 9: I don't know, yeh yeah, we're always every drummer I've

695
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,760
talked to. It's like, yeah, I'm in three bands, and

696
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,079
me and myself, I'm also in three bands.

697
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 8: So you know, I guess we're hard to find. And

698
00:38:23,599 --> 00:38:25,800
you know, we just kind of were like, yeah, whatever

699
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,280
I can. We can do both of these. Honestly, we're

700
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,840
pretty bad. We're pretty famous for like cheating as musicians,

701
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,639
you know what I mean, We're cheating on our previous

702
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,039
bands with other bands and stuff like that. It's pretty

703
00:38:37,079 --> 00:38:39,000
bad actually, but you know whatever.

704
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:45,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah so what so what else? So there's a

705
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:46,639
third band figure.

706
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 8: In Yeah, well kind of. It's like just starting out.

707
00:38:51,559 --> 00:38:55,360
It's a band called Blowflies. They're out of Keene and

708
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,079
it's with a buddy that I actually met in the

709
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,840
cover band Room three. I won the bass player Doc Cassidy,

710
00:39:03,119 --> 00:39:06,559
wonderful bass player. But yeah, they're just starting out. It's

711
00:39:06,599 --> 00:39:09,280
more of a I don't even know what you would

712
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,480
call it like a post kind of grungy, kind of

713
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,800
Midwest emo, kind of a little.

714
00:39:16,599 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 4: Bit of everything.

715
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 8: So a little bit more out of my style. But

716
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:24,239
they're just starting out and I've been playing with them.

717
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:25,480
We've done one show together.

718
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah. Yeah. My My theory about the reason with

719
00:39:30,519 --> 00:39:32,800
drummers they're always in so many bands is because when

720
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,840
you're when you're growing up and you first become interested

721
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,480
in playing an instrument, you got to have to talk

722
00:39:36,519 --> 00:39:39,400
with the parents, right, you know a lot of parents

723
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,280
are gonna be like drums really yeah?

724
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:43,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.

725
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,599
Speaker 8: We had that conversation, but I mean they were kind

726
00:39:46,599 --> 00:39:50,559
of used to it because I started off on guitar, yeah,

727
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,239
at like six, and then I moved on to bass,

728
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:55,599
then went back to guitar, and I'm like, you know what,

729
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,159
I don't really like or I like all both of these,

730
00:39:58,199 --> 00:39:59,639
but I'm not really that good at it, so I'll

731
00:39:59,639 --> 00:40:02,320
switch drums. And then I finally when I was ten

732
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,039
and I finally found my home behind the drum set.

733
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:06,039
Speaker 4: I was like, this is where I belong.

734
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:10,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, very cool. Did did all three of you?

735
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:11,960
Did you all go to school together?

736
00:40:12,119 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 10: Or no, I'm in a different school than them.

737
00:40:15,159 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 5: Oh okay, yeah, but you guys went to school.

738
00:40:17,159 --> 00:40:22,039
Speaker 4: Together, yes, or yeah, we just met in a couple

739
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:23,920
years ago. Yeah.

740
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, we met in high school because we went to

741
00:40:28,519 --> 00:40:30,719
separate middle schools. But we met in high school and

742
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:36,519
then Izzy obviously went to Golfstown High School. So that's

743
00:40:36,559 --> 00:40:38,360
how we met at the Battle of the Bands because

744
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,960
obviously we would have never met otherwise.

745
00:40:41,039 --> 00:40:42,559
Speaker 4: Ye. Sorry, you know what I mean?

746
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 2: Yeah?

747
00:40:43,159 --> 00:40:43,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.

748
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,519
Speaker 5: Do you are there any other bands that you kind

749
00:40:48,559 --> 00:40:49,559
of team up with?

750
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 4: You know?

751
00:40:50,119 --> 00:40:53,320
Speaker 5: It it sort of happens organically in my experience, and

752
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,480
you know, I was in a band that played with

753
00:40:55,559 --> 00:40:56,960
your dad's band a lot. We did a lot of

754
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:57,559
shows together.

755
00:40:57,639 --> 00:40:57,840
Speaker 4: Yeah.

756
00:40:58,039 --> 00:41:00,800
Speaker 5: You know, sometimes bands just kind of, you know, you

757
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,119
just you end up teaming up. It just sort of happens.

758
00:41:03,679 --> 00:41:05,440
Is there anybody else in the scene that that you

759
00:41:05,639 --> 00:41:06,719
play a lot of shows.

760
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,159
Speaker 4: With or not yet? Unfortunately.

761
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,039
Speaker 8: Yeah, we're trying to make our way out there, and

762
00:41:12,119 --> 00:41:16,199
we're trying to, you know, try to also hopefully revitalize

763
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,239
the scene a little bit, because unfortunately a lot of

764
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,360
it has died. So we're trying to, you know, find

765
00:41:22,599 --> 00:41:24,840
like minded people and be like, hey, come on, you know,

766
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:25,960
music's still alive.

767
00:41:26,119 --> 00:41:28,119
Speaker 4: Let's go, let's go play shows and all that.

768
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,559
Speaker 9: Yeah, so yeah, not yet, but we hope to find

769
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:33,880
other bands out there who are like us, who are

770
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:35,079
willing to play shows with us.

771
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 4: You know, we like friends. So yeah.

772
00:41:37,679 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 9: Yeah.

773
00:41:38,559 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 5: Do you feel like there's a there's a dearth of

774
00:41:40,519 --> 00:41:43,000
bands that are doing kind of what you're doing right

775
00:41:43,039 --> 00:41:44,599
now and locally or.

776
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,280
Speaker 10: Not that I've like really met or anything, like, I

777
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:53,079
don't see too many younger people playing rock or like

778
00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:55,360
heavy music at all.

779
00:41:55,679 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 5: Yeah.

780
00:41:56,079 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 9: Yeah, A lot of the a lot of the younger

781
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,440
and music that I see now it's you know, rap,

782
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,960
you know, that type of stuff, which, hey, I'm not hating,

783
00:42:08,519 --> 00:42:16,639
but doesn't help us out right, you know it. You know,

784
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:20,840
I wish there was more younger bands, you know, rock

785
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:21,599
music and stuff.

786
00:42:21,639 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 4: But yeah, it's just kind of how it is today.

787
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 5: No, it's interesting that you say that, because you know,

788
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,760
I was talking earlier about how I feel that this

789
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,440
kind of music is timeless. But it does occur to me. Again,

790
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,039
if you were to just play this for me and say,

791
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:36,599
you know, when do you think this was done? I

792
00:42:36,639 --> 00:42:43,000
wouldn't know, but I probably would assume that the members

793
00:42:43,079 --> 00:42:45,000
of the band were older than the three of you are,

794
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,000
because you're right, you don't see a lot of people

795
00:42:47,119 --> 00:42:49,880
necessarily your age doing this kind of music, or at

796
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,719
least doing it, you know, with this level of sophistication,

797
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:54,840
because like I said, some of some of this is

798
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,639
you know, complex, and yeah, that's that's interesting. I mean,

799
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,039
you know, but again, you know, you've been together less

800
00:43:02,039 --> 00:43:03,840
than a year two, so I assume as you go

801
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,159
along you'll meet other bands that you can kind of

802
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:07,960
like I said, you know what, and it just happens.

803
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,800
It just happens organically, you know. But we should play

804
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,920
another track from the album. What do you want to

805
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:16,760
What do you want to play next?

806
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:17,360
Speaker 4: You guys?

807
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 7: Go with you?

808
00:43:19,039 --> 00:43:21,400
Speaker 4: Guys? Good? Yeah, within my eyes, I can't talk with

809
00:43:21,639 --> 00:43:22,440
myle the.

810
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 8: Guitar player talk, It's fine. I'm just the drummer. I

811
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:26,159
don't know how to speak.

812
00:43:28,599 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 5: All right, we'll get We'll give this one a spin

813
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,039
and anything we should know about this before we play it.

814
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,199
Speaker 9: We all, I think one of the main parts of

815
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,360
it that sticks out all three of us sing on it.

816
00:43:42,159 --> 00:43:45,960
Oh does I do versus? He does the chorus and

817
00:43:46,039 --> 00:43:49,280
in the background you'll hear like a or whatever.

818
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 4: Vocalism. But that's easy.

819
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 5: Oh, very cool, very cool. All right, let's give this

820
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,119
a listen. If you're just joining us. The band is

821
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,760
under the haraz listen. They're here with us, live in studio,

822
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:03,639
and this is called within my eyes.

823
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:23,880
Speaker 11: Yeah, okay, one the sum there was, I can he

824
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:33,079
hold up. I can't breathe right out alone, but I

825
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,039

00:47:38,639 --> 00:47:41,760
a lot. That's called Within My Eyes. The band is

855
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,440
under the Horizon and we've got all three members of

856
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,840
the band here with us live in studio on Matt

857
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,800
Connorton Unleashed on this Saturday morning. Yeah, we were talking

858
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,280
off air while it was playing that that's that song

859
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,320
has got a touch of grunge, which kind of sets

860
00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,320
it apart from a lot of these other songs. And Jordan,

861
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,599
you were saying, and you uh online on Uh it

862
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,559
was it on Apples on Apple Music it uh similar artists.

863
00:48:06,639 --> 00:48:09,599
Speaker 9: It comes up with like deaf tones Alison Shane stuff

864
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,960
very grungy or you know, have that darker feel.

865
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:14,800
Speaker 4: I guess I don't know.

866
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:18,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course the drums kind of ungrunge

867
00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:20,199
it a little bit because you don't hear you don't

868
00:48:20,199 --> 00:48:21,599
hear double bass usually in grunge.

869
00:48:22,159 --> 00:48:23,519
Speaker 4: No, there's a bit.

870
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 5: I cannot remember who they are now, Jenny, you probably

871
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:29,280
don't remember either. It was a couple of years ago

872
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:32,519
we had a band on who very grunge except for

873
00:48:32,559 --> 00:48:36,840
the drums. It was a three piece band. Uh, female singer.

874
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:40,760
I can't I can, but yeah, but there's a band

875
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,559
from the area who Yeah, they're they're like very grunge

876
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,760
like not just a hint of it except the double

877
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:50,280
bass drum, which is cool because it's it's it's a

878
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,599
different sound. But I cannot I can picture them too,

879
00:48:53,639 --> 00:48:55,840
but I cannot remember the name. It'll come to me

880
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:57,920
later on in the day when it no longer matters.

881
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:01,559
But anyway, but I really like that track. Now, now,

882
00:49:01,599 --> 00:49:03,679
where do you record? What's the recording process?

883
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,880
Speaker 4: Like my house?

884
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:11,039
Speaker 8: We so we started recording the drum tracks. We recorded

885
00:49:11,079 --> 00:49:16,599
that down in the bandroom. We recorded in April, and

886
00:49:16,639 --> 00:49:19,559
it's in pretty much my basement is the bandroom. But

887
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:21,960
you know, so it was so cold, these poor guys

888
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:26,880
were off and uh. We recorded the drum tracks and

889
00:49:27,079 --> 00:49:29,239
pretty much like a day, day and a half maybe,

890
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:35,519
and then we moved upstairs into my attic for the

891
00:49:35,599 --> 00:49:39,480
guitar tracks, and then we recorded vocals in my bedroom.

892
00:49:39,519 --> 00:49:41,760
So pretty much half of the house was a recording

893
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:42,400
studio for.

894
00:49:42,519 --> 00:49:46,599
Speaker 4: Like a week. But yeah, just recording anywhere.

895
00:49:46,199 --> 00:49:48,199
Speaker 10: We could, I say it would be more than a week.

896
00:49:49,039 --> 00:49:50,559
Speaker 4: I don't know how long did we record for.

897
00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:54,199
Speaker 5: I don't know, probably a couple of weeks, at least.

898
00:49:54,079 --> 00:49:57,039
Speaker 8: A couple maybe three weeks. He's saying three weeks weeks.

899
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:01,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, oh very cool. Uh No, that's that's a

900
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:02,039
good way to do it.

901
00:50:02,119 --> 00:50:02,239
Speaker 9: You know.

902
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:04,599
Speaker 5: It's it's you know, we live in an era to

903
00:50:04,679 --> 00:50:06,880
where you've got so many different options in terms of

904
00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:10,880
how you record. So do you uh I think you

905
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,000
had said earlier too, you're already working on new material.

906
00:50:13,119 --> 00:50:15,599
Is that is that, Craig? Do you have plans to

907
00:50:15,679 --> 00:50:17,559
record it soon or you kind of focused on the

908
00:50:17,599 --> 00:50:21,679
current album right now? The current album right now, Yeah.

909
00:50:21,679 --> 00:50:23,519
Speaker 10: And with the gigs that we have coming up, I

910
00:50:23,559 --> 00:50:27,360
feel that's what we're focusing on more than original new music.

911
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 8: Yeah, although speaking on gigs that are coming up, we're

912
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:34,920
playing two of the new songs at the show tonight,

913
00:50:35,159 --> 00:50:37,719
like songs that are going on the next album.

914
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, no one's heard it, but we had extra.

915
00:50:40,159 --> 00:50:42,480
Speaker 8: Times where like, oh, we'll give the audience a little

916
00:50:42,519 --> 00:50:44,559
sneak peek of what's to come. So yeah, if any

917
00:50:44,559 --> 00:50:46,360
of you guys that are listening right now are coming

918
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:48,119
to that, you'll get to hear two new songs that

919
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:49,360
you can hear right now.

920
00:50:49,639 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 5: Oh, very cool, excellent, excellent. Are you gonna, I mean,

921
00:50:55,079 --> 00:50:58,320
the current run of shows obviously are keeping very busy.

922
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,079
Are you gonna try to keep up that pace?

923
00:51:01,159 --> 00:51:01,199
Speaker 1: So?

924
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:02,679
Speaker 5: You know a lot of bands kind of slow down

925
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:04,719
in the winter. That's when they kind of shift to

926
00:51:06,159 --> 00:51:07,480
recording or writing.

927
00:51:07,639 --> 00:51:11,159
Speaker 10: Or We'll just have to see how things go, you know.

928
00:51:11,519 --> 00:51:11,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

929
00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:15,159
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm hoping that the energy that we have right

930
00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,079
now like follows through even after the shows.

931
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, but like she said, only time will tell.

Speaker 6: I get to add that to my little rezuom.

983
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:45,440
Speaker 5: Yes, Green Green Jello slash Green Jelly. Don't know what

984
00:53:45,559 --> 00:53:48,840
to call them. I guess the flyer they have says

985
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:52,400
green Jello, so I guess I think at this point.

986
00:53:52,639 --> 00:53:55,639
I think Bill when they were here, said that legally

987
00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:59,000
they're not in any peril at this point because it's

988
00:53:59,039 --> 00:54:04,679
been like thirty years. They were threatened with litigation by Jello. Yeah.

989
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:06,519
I don't know if you all are familiar.

990
00:54:06,199 --> 00:54:08,760
Speaker 4: With Yes, Green Jelly, three Little Pigs.

991
00:54:08,599 --> 00:54:11,920
Speaker 5: Yes, Yes, Yes, we had them. They played in Manchester

992
00:54:12,079 --> 00:54:14,800
and then we had them on the show the next

993
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:16,639
day because they played on a Friday night, and then

994
00:54:16,639 --> 00:54:19,480
they were kind enough to come in. And I asked

995
00:54:19,519 --> 00:54:21,519
Bill Mann speaker about it because it's, you know, like

996
00:54:21,599 --> 00:54:24,000
they were Green Jello, but then they became green Jelly

997
00:54:24,159 --> 00:54:28,199
because they were threatened with litigation because green Jello obviously

998
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:30,920
is trademarked. But he said something about now they just

999
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:33,119
I think they actually prefer to be called green Jello

1000
00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:36,119
because it's been like thirty years and they're not gonna

1001
00:54:36,119 --> 00:54:40,559
get sued now in theory. But but yeah, so it's

1002
00:54:40,599 --> 00:54:42,840
like if you look them up, there's sometimes they're green Jelly,

1003
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,559
sometimes they're green Jello. But but yeah, they're gonna be

1004
00:54:45,599 --> 00:54:49,400
at Terminus in Nashua on Tuesday night, Free Show twenty

1005
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:52,199

1015
00:55:16,119 --> 00:55:18,320
If you will any anything we should know about this son.

1016
00:55:20,639 --> 00:55:23,480
Speaker 10: It has a really sad, dark story to it, but

1017
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:27,480
I wrote it uh on someone that I had lost

1018
00:55:28,639 --> 00:55:30,440
a couple of years back to suicide.

1019
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:36,519
Speaker 5: Oh, wow. Yeah, okay, so this this is about that? Yes, yeah, yeah, well,

1020
00:55:36,599 --> 00:55:38,679
you know I always say it's something we we talked

1021
00:55:38,679 --> 00:55:41,840
about on the on the show a lot is you know,

1022
00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:46,280
if you can take something negative but create something from it,

1023
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:48,679
you know, that's really kind of the best way to

1024
00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:50,599
deal with things. That's like a great it's such a

1025
00:55:50,639 --> 00:55:52,519
great form of therapy to you know, to be able

1026
00:55:52,559 --> 00:55:55,320
to take a traumatic event but then do something creative

1027
00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:59,000
with it. So so we will we will end with this,

1028
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,679
