00:00:30,399 --> 00:00:32,920
I don't think it does. I'm very frustrated to my

00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:37,280
cracking voice, but still recovering again, still recovering from my

31
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,799

Speaker 1: Us, okay, Okay, gotcha, gotcha. Yeah, you guys have a

33
00:01:24,359 --> 00:01:24,799
big sound.

34
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 3: You know what I like about that track too, Like

35
00:01:30,239 --> 00:01:31,680
you're not in any hurry to get to the end

36
00:01:31,719 --> 00:01:34,400
of it, you know what I mean, Like like that

37
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,519
riff just keeps going for a while. And I think

38
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,719
that because I think that's kind of a lost.

39
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: Thing, like I don't hear a lot of I feel

40
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:43,719
like we live in a time where a lot of

41
00:01:43,719 --> 00:01:45,680
bands it's like, you know, I don't know if it's

42
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,280
because everybody thinks that people have short attention spans or whatever,

43
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,959
but it's like, Okay, a couple of choruses and we'll

44
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,079
end it or we'll fade it out, but you guys

45
00:01:53,159 --> 00:01:54,920
kind of take your time with it and groove on

46
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,799
that for a while. And I just think that's really cool.

47
00:01:57,359 --> 00:01:59,439
Speaker 5: We had had a lot of fun coming up with

48
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,040
that ending. Yeah, we loved the riffs that they did,

49
00:02:02,079 --> 00:02:02,879
so we wanted to kind of.

50
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:03,519
Speaker 4: Stretch that out.

51
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, that's really cool. How long has Scarecrow

52
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:08,759
Hill Scarecrow Hill been around?

53
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 5: Oh gosh, is three for what matters? Since twenty eighteen?

54
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:20,879
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, But there was a version of the band

55
00:02:20,879 --> 00:02:21,840
that existed before that.

56
00:02:21,879 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 5: There was Joel and I started the band in two

57
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,879
thousand and three, okay, okay. We went till about twenty fourteen,

58
00:02:28,719 --> 00:02:31,560
and then we had split up, and then at the

59
00:02:31,719 --> 00:02:34,280
end of twenty eighteen beginning of twenty nineteen, we got

60
00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:35,400
back together with these guys.

61
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,599
Speaker 3: Oh okay, now what caused the return.

62
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,039
Speaker 5: Brendan and Joe Okay, we met them and the way

63
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:45,919
they played the music, we were just like, we need

64
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:46,919
to do this again.

65
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: When when the band ended the first time, after you said,

66
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,840
what about a ten year run?

67
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:52,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, the first time?

68
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 3: Did you did you always kind of know that it

69
00:02:55,719 --> 00:02:58,199
would be back some day or was it like, no,

70
00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:58,680
that's it.

71
00:02:59,039 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 5: I think we secretly hoped, yeah, but we didn't really

72
00:03:02,879 --> 00:03:04,400
know what was going to happen either ways.

73
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, So the so everything on the new album

74
00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:10,159
is the current lineup, the five of of you.

75
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:11,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, excellent, excellent.

76
00:03:13,039 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I was pretty sure because when when Jenny,

77
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,919
you know, Jenny does all the booking for the show,

78
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,520
and when she mentioned Scarecrow Hill, I was like, that's

79
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,199
a familiar name from like I think, back when I

80
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,360
was still playing. But but I wasn't one hundred percent sure.

81
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,319
And then when I saw online it looked, you know,

82
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,919
I saw the new album, and then I I didn't, like,

83
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:32,800
I didn't find.

84
00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 3: Does the old material does that survive? Like does or

85
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,639
have you left that kind of in that other era.

86
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,319
Speaker 4: We've tried pretty hard to get rid of that.

87
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, there's a there's still one record out there

88
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,159
from like twenty twelve.

89
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 4: We're pretty alright with that still being around.

90
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,319
Speaker 3: But oh okay, yeah.

91
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 5: Everything else I've worked pretty hard to it's quiet as

92
00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:53,879
much as possible.

93
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,479
Speaker 3: No kidding, so like actively suppressive, like you don't even

94
00:03:56,479 --> 00:03:57,319
want oh no kidding?

95
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,439
Speaker 1: Interesting, Why is that? Like you just feel that the

96
00:04:00,479 --> 00:04:02,080
sound has evolved so much, and.

97
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, just everything about the band, like I, like I said,

98
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,840
it's when Joel and Dom and I came back to

99
00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:10,199
the band and we hooked up with Joe and Brendan

100
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,280
here it was just like we didn't care about the

101
00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:14,039
past anymore.

102
00:04:14,039 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 4: It's this, this is our band.

103
00:04:15,759 --> 00:04:19,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, when you I've been in situations like I

104
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:20,920
don't play anymore. I used to be in a bunch

105
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,319
of bands, and I've been in situations where, you know,

106
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,680
maybe there'd been some sort of a transformation and an evolution,

107
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,519
and then there's that that inevitable conversation about do we

108
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,000
change the name or and and I.

109
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:34,879
Speaker 3: Always I remember I was in a specific band. I

110
00:04:34,879 --> 00:04:36,279
was in a band called My Life Crisis, and I

111
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,800
remember actually having that argument with you know, when we

112
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,160
had a big shift in personnel and the guys kind

113
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,800
of wanted to, oh, let's you know, our sound kind

114
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,519
of change, let's change the name. And I fought for

115
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,000
keeping the name because I was like, well, look, people

116
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,079
know us as this. I understand it's a different band

117
00:04:50,519 --> 00:04:53,759
kind of, but we've built up this name. Not you know,

118
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,560
not that we ever got anywhere big or anything, but

119
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:57,319
I but I felt there was value in our name.

120
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: Like that was that a conversation amongst you do we

121
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,079
do we be scarecrow Hill, or or do we do

122
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,800
something or do we be something new.

123
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 4: I don't think we have even discussed it really really yeah.

124
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Scarecrow Hill was kind of like such a

125
00:05:12,199 --> 00:05:17,639
long standing name and entity for for Tye. Yeah, and

126
00:05:17,959 --> 00:05:22,480
Tye being kind of our fearless leader. That's like we

127
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:23,439
we go as he goes.

128
00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, And that makes sense. I mean, you've got

129
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,160
you know, you've got equity in that, you know, So,

130
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,800
like I said, I I remembered it. It was familiar

131
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,240
to me when Jenny mentioned, I thought you guys had

132
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,000
been around for a while.

133
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 1: So as I think that makes sense, we're gonna We're

134
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:43,079
gonna play something a little bit later. That's really really

135
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,480
interesting in terms of there's there's a bit of a surprise,

136
00:05:45,519 --> 00:05:47,600
well a couple of surprises on the track. But I'm

137
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,600
curious about how you describe your sound because you're I mean, obviously,

138
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,560
you know, you kind of fit in the metal genre broadly,

139
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,519
but of course you have all these subgenres and whatnot.

140
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,279
But but your your approach, especially from what I was

141
00:05:58,319 --> 00:06:00,480
reading online, your your approach is a little bit different

142
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,800
in terms of You're not My impression is you're not

143
00:06:02,879 --> 00:06:05,480
trying to You're not You're not trying to be one

144
00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:06,319
specific thing.

145
00:06:06,959 --> 00:06:08,399
Speaker 4: You know, you're you're you're boring.

146
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, exactly, you know, because most metal bands do

147
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,480
try to be one specific thing. But has that always

148
00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:19,839
been your approach to kind of be open to different influences.

149
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 5: And yeah, I think, I think absolutely, because when you've

150
00:06:22,759 --> 00:06:26,399
got you know, five personalities and five sets of influences

151
00:06:26,439 --> 00:06:29,079
and five musical directions that everybody wants to go, I

152
00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:32,079
think you kind of have to have the open air

153
00:06:32,199 --> 00:06:33,000
for that to happen.

154
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 4: And yeah, I'm I'm like the least.

155
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,959
Speaker 5: Metal guy in the world, man, I I like the

156
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,959
Beatles and Tech nine, you know what I mean. Like

157
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,040
that's so these guys like teach me a lot about

158
00:06:43,199 --> 00:06:46,720
the metal genre and the metal community, and.

159
00:06:46,639 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 4: We've all kind of had to work together.

160
00:06:48,079 --> 00:06:50,519
Speaker 5: And it just makes it so that, you know, when

161
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,839
Joe puts his stamp on something and then Dominic comes

162
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,519
in and Joe and it just it is so many sounds.

163
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, it makes it cool for us.

164
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 3: Does that happen?

165
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 1: I assume that happens kind of organically, right, It sounds

166
00:07:03,759 --> 00:07:06,079
like it like you don't like, you don't say, you know,

167
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,800
we need to try to shove this other influence into

168
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,279
this song, but it just kind of happens.

169
00:07:10,439 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it kind of depends, like the way

170
00:07:13,079 --> 00:07:15,000
when I'm writing. A lot of the time, I'll be

171
00:07:15,079 --> 00:07:18,360
inspired by like a particular song or like an idea

172
00:07:19,079 --> 00:07:21,639
that exists in a song. Yeah, so sometimes I'll take

173
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,000
that as a starting point and kind of like build

174
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,720
a demo around that idea. But like the inspiration comes

175
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,680
from so many different directions sometimes that like to not

176
00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:33,639
have to pigeonhole into like we have to sound like

177
00:07:34,519 --> 00:07:37,839
such and such, It's it's kind of freeing in terms

178
00:07:37,879 --> 00:07:40,319
of inspirational direction.

179
00:07:40,639 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that makes sense.

180
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: Your live show too, I would imagine it's pretty energetic,

181
00:07:45,839 --> 00:07:47,040
you know, to match.

182
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 2: Your Yeah, it's a lot of fun, you know. It's yeah,

183
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,399
I'll just leave it at that, trying to keep it

184
00:07:58,519 --> 00:08:02,319
radio friendly, but yeah, we have a lot of fun,

185
00:08:02,319 --> 00:08:03,920
and we try to keep it very high energy.

186
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:04,639
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.

187
00:08:04,839 --> 00:08:08,399
Speaker 5: The live show too, I think is very very organic. Yeah,

188
00:08:08,399 --> 00:08:11,600
like it's we don't there's no choreograph or anything like that.

189
00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:13,720
We just kind of go into it knowing that we

190
00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:16,879
were with our team, like we just see what happens. Yeah,

191
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,680
start to rock out, man, like a little bit of

192
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:19,839
old school in the new school.

193
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:20,279
Speaker 3: Yeah.

194
00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:24,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you guys play out, do you have opportunities

195
00:08:24,759 --> 00:08:26,800
to play with bands that you played with like way

196
00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:27,879
back in the day.

197
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:32,159
Speaker 6: Or shockingly yes, I suspected as much because I can

198
00:08:32,159 --> 00:08:35,879
tell you just doing this, I'll while we've had guests

199
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,559
on the show or talk to people about coming on

200
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:39,759
to I'm like, I didn't even know.

201
00:08:40,159 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 4: Wow, Like I remember doing.

202
00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:44,399
Speaker 3: Shows with them like twenty years ago, and they're back.

203
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:45,159
That's really cool.

204
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: Like who are some of the bands that you guys

205
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,159
get to play with that you played.

206
00:08:48,879 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 3: With back then.

207
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 5: So a lot of times it might not even be

208
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,399
necessarily be a whole band. But like even just last night,

209
00:08:54,759 --> 00:08:57,519
we got to play over here at the Shaskiing, which

210
00:08:57,759 --> 00:08:58,639
what a great little room.

211
00:08:58,639 --> 00:08:59,399
Speaker 4: That was all fun.

212
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,279
Speaker 3: Oh yeah I love them.

213
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 4: Yeah oh yeah, what a great place.

214
00:09:03,039 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 5: And but so Rags to Stitches shout out to our

215
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,440
boys from New Hampshire.

216
00:09:08,919 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 4: Uh, they had put the show.

217
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,919
Speaker 5: On nice and their their bass player is a guy

218
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,080
that we have been playing with in different bands.

219
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 4: I mean since me and.

220
00:09:18,159 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 5: Joel were kids, like we we grew up playing shows

221
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,120
with this guy. And yeah he's still out there doing

222
00:09:23,159 --> 00:09:25,200
a whistle out. They're doing it twenty years later, so

223
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,679
like it's there's a lot of that. A lot of

224
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,840
bands unfortunately don't stay around as long, but right the

225
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,679
musicians do, and we'll we'll get out there and get

226
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,360
to see this guy. Oh he used to be in

227
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,960
this band that we toured with and that that stuff's

228
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:38,399
a lot of fun.

229
00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 4: It's really cool.

230
00:09:39,039 --> 00:09:41,879
Speaker 3: Oh, that's really cool. Did we have U rags of stitches?

231
00:09:41,919 --> 00:09:44,440
Did we have them on you remember? I feel like

232
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:44,840
we did.

233
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:45,919
Speaker 4: I'm not positive.

234
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 3: I'd have to go back and look. I think we

235
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:47,679
might have.

236
00:09:47,799 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, if not, you should, yeah, definitely if you haven't, or.

237
00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: Or the name has come up on this maybe that

238
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,440
might be the name might have come up on the

239
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:55,000
show before.

240
00:09:55,159 --> 00:09:57,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, are you guys playing out a lot?

241
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 4: Or yeah? Yeah, we've been very very busy, good, very good, excellent, excellent.

242
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,159
Speaker 3: And how long has this album been out? This is

243
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:07,480
this is pretty new right?

244
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, July August.

245
00:10:09,639 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 2: Something like that, less than a year, more than a month?

246
00:10:12,759 --> 00:10:15,799
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, cool? Where do you record?

247
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:16,639
Speaker 4: We do it?

248
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: You know, that's awesome because it sounds like I'm always curious,

249
00:10:21,039 --> 00:10:23,559
you know, because we live in a time where you've

250
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,919
got so many different options in terms of how you record,

251
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,440
and there's so many great studios around, but you can

252
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,120
also do it yourself and it sounds like it was

253
00:10:32,399 --> 00:10:35,159
recorded in a million dollar studio, you know. Thanks, So

254
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:40,159
it's really impressive. Like, like, do you have a home studio?

255
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,720
Does one of you have a home studio set up

256
00:10:41,799 --> 00:10:43,080
or what's what's the approach?

257
00:10:43,279 --> 00:10:46,159
Speaker 2: We kind of each of us has our own little

258
00:10:46,159 --> 00:10:48,799
setup at home where well, we'll do some demos, but

259
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,960
when it comes time to like actually cut the final thing. Uh,

260
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,320
we have a decent setup at the band, like our

261
00:10:55,360 --> 00:11:01,320
practice space where we track everything in and then once

262
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,200
that's all done, we take it to our guy Joe

263
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,919
Clapp who's got like a really nice professional studio and

264
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,519
he mixes it and masters it for us.

265
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: Oh fantastic, Okay, yeah, so it's cool that that you're

266
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:17,200
able to do it that way. You know, I'm old

267
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,000
enough to remember, and some of you might be when

268
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,120
you know your only options were really you know, like

269
00:11:23,159 --> 00:11:25,399
you could, yeah, you could record demos at home on

270
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,879
your task and you know, and then but then yeh,

271
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:30,240
then go spend.

272
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 3: A ton of money in a studio to do everything there.

273
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 2: And me and Brennan were joking on the way over

274
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,159
here because we rode together and we're a couple of

275
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,919
years younger than the rest of the guys in the band. Yeah,

276
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,840
we were joking about I. I had mentioned before how

277
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,879
one of the early Scarecrow Hill demos was done on

278
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:51,120
an answering machine, and how how far it's come in

279
00:11:51,159 --> 00:11:54,000
the way that you can get like really high quality

280
00:11:54,039 --> 00:11:58,679
recordings at home for like a pretty relatively affordable price

281
00:11:58,759 --> 00:12:02,720
compared to even like five or ten years ago, where

282
00:12:03,039 --> 00:12:05,759
it was the barrier to entry was so high.

283
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Oh that's funny though, the answering machine.

284
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that.

285
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 5: Makes sense though, going to the public library and running

286
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,320
off covers for the cassette tapes for Dublin, No kidding,

287
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,879
it was you know, there wasn't no distribution around here

288
00:12:20,919 --> 00:12:22,080
that anybody could afford.

289
00:12:21,879 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 3: Or anything back, right exactly exactly.

290
00:12:24,159 --> 00:12:26,039
Speaker 4: If you knew a band that had CDs, they were

291
00:12:26,039 --> 00:12:26,799
like big times.

292
00:12:27,399 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, even over the course of the years just.

293
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 3: Doing this. Well, I've I've been at wmn.

294
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 1: H for it'll be eight years in April, but I've

295
00:12:37,879 --> 00:12:40,879
been interviewing bands for a lot longer. And we were

296
00:12:40,879 --> 00:12:43,759
talking talking to somebody last week on the show about

297
00:12:43,759 --> 00:12:46,559
how when I first started doing this, like bands would

298
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,840
usually show up with a CD. You know, now, of

299
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,159
course you can just email everything, but and the move

300
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,320
was was very often it would be, you know, just

301
00:12:53,879 --> 00:12:56,480
like a CDR with sharpie written on it. You know,

302
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,840
these are the songs we want to feature on the show,

303
00:12:58,879 --> 00:13:01,039
and they'd handed to me on their finger. It wouldn't

304
00:13:01,039 --> 00:13:04,919
even be in a case. Yeah, those were those were

305
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:05,360
the days.

306
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, we actually have I don't use it, but we

307
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,519
we do have a functioning CD player here.

308
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 4: That's awesome.

309
00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:13,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that. One of the guys, Rob, I

310
00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:15,120
don't know if you know Rob as a vido.

311
00:13:15,159 --> 00:13:16,879
Speaker 1: He owes a show here called Granted State of Mind

312
00:13:16,879 --> 00:13:18,559
and he uses occasionally.

313
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 3: But but he's kind of old school with that.

314
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: But the new album is it available on CD or

315
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:24,799
is it only on streaming platforms?

316
00:13:24,799 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 4: This one is only on streaming platforms.

317
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 5: We have three other records that we take physical copies

318
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:31,639
out on the road with us, but this is the

319
00:13:31,759 --> 00:13:34,519
one we wanted to try just just to see first.

320
00:13:34,799 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 7: Yeah.

321
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 5: I it did his digital only and figured maybe if

322
00:13:38,159 --> 00:13:40,200
if it keeps doing as well as it's doing, we'll

323
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:41,919
probably end up doing some physical copies.

324
00:13:42,039 --> 00:13:46,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I want to play So I surprise you

325
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,120
guys with this. I made a radio edit of this

326
00:13:49,279 --> 00:13:55,879
track that Little Voice featuring Adam Ramie partly well. So

327
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,080
a couple things about it that that really grabbed me.

328
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,240
One is I just find I'm the subject very relatable,

329
00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:05,639
you know, talking about that that little voice that so

330
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,440
many of us have in our heads that tries to

331
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,000
kind of drag us down and tell us a lot

332
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,679
of negative things, negative self talk and all that. So

333
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,320
I think a lot of people can really relate to

334
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,120
the lyrics. The other thing that's really interesting to me

335
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,120
is what's going on in the chorus, which is very

336
00:14:21,159 --> 00:14:24,320
unusual and it's it's cool. I was like, what, Oh,

337
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,240
that's interesting and it's got and and tell me about

338
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,320
uh but we'll talk about that part after we play it.

339
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,159
But tell me tell me too about Adam Raymie.

340
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 4: Adam. Adam is amazing.

341
00:14:35,559 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 5: So Adam is one of the vocalists for the band

342
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:42,159
Dropout Kings, Okay, and he's at the range that this

343
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,679
man has where he can you know, he does the

344
00:14:44,679 --> 00:14:49,039
dirty vocals, screaming stuff. He does these absolutely beautiful, powerful

345
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,519
lead vocals. And then we had We've done a few

346
00:14:52,519 --> 00:14:54,679
shows together over the years, and we had talked a

347
00:14:54,679 --> 00:14:56,679
few times about doing a track. So when I sent

348
00:14:56,799 --> 00:14:58,919
him this, he said, well, you know, what are you

349
00:14:58,919 --> 00:15:01,200
going to do with it? I said, we trust you.

350
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,039
You know your your range is ridiculous, and this was

351
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,240
the last thing we were expecting. Yeah, he said. We

352
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,639
were like, wow, this is all right, Like he went

353
00:15:08,799 --> 00:15:10,919
different with this and we were super excited about it.

354
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:13,759
But he's he's just one of those guys that he

355
00:15:13,799 --> 00:15:16,440
can do anything, and he's so much fun to work

356
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:16,879
with on this.

357
00:15:17,159 --> 00:15:18,480

359
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,320
Death of the Family will give this to spend uh.

360
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,080

00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:26,640
He's like, I think it's one of one of my

464
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,839
favorite features I've done. And I was so taken back

465
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,319
by it. I was like, wow, I'm going to rewrite

466
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,200
everything I had because like I need my stuff to

467
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:34,640
be cooler.

468
00:20:34,759 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 4: Now.

469
00:20:35,039 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: Okay, so that that caused you to read your Yeah, absolutely, yeah, yeah.

470
00:20:40,519 --> 00:20:42,359
The chorus is I think we were talking about it

471
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,400
off air. It's like nothing I've ever heard. It's it's

472
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,799
it's it's such a unique sound. And uh now, Joe,

473
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,279
you were saying too, so what do you the genre

474
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,160
that that you call?

475
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 4: Uh?

476
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, So we were talking about genre before. I think

477
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,200
if if for Scarecrow Hill, if you were kind of

478
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,000
to nail it down to something. We kind of used

479
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,720
the tagline hip hop death rock.

480
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 3: Okay.

481
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:06,839
Speaker 2: So Tye especially has a lot of like hip hop influences.

482
00:21:07,279 --> 00:21:08,839
So you know, in a song like that, you can

483
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,880
hear the rapping and that. That's a lot of the

484
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,640
songs that we do have a lot of like hip

485
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,319
hop influence to it. So we try to have like,

486
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,119
you know, a groove and a bounce to a lot

487
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,279
of you know, while it might be a heavy riff,

488
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,720
you know, it can be broken down into a groove

489
00:21:23,799 --> 00:21:24,920
that grooves.

490
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, okay, no, well put yeah, no, that makes

491
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,160
sense to me. Now, that's that's a great Do you

492
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,039
play that live or is it hard to do without?

493
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:34,599
Speaker 4: Uh we we haven't.

494
00:21:34,759 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, we haven't played that one live.

495
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's that's really good. Also another track, maybe

496
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:43,759
we'll play it at the end of if we have time.

497
00:21:43,799 --> 00:21:46,240
But you do a cover on this that I that

498
00:21:46,319 --> 00:21:47,799
I really like on the new album, of course we

499
00:21:47,839 --> 00:21:49,720
should mention again a death in the family.

500
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 3: We're in this together now.

501
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,079
Speaker 1: And I remember looking at the track list and I

502
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,599
was like, I wonder if that's an original or if

503
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,160
that's a nine inch Nails cover And I listened to it, and, uh, man,

504
00:21:58,279 --> 00:21:59,279
you sing the hell out of that.

505
00:21:59,480 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 4: Thank you.

506
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really like there's there's an emotion to it.

507
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,759
There's almost like a like a desperation that comes across

508
00:22:07,799 --> 00:22:09,680
in your vocal. I don't know if that's what you're

509
00:22:09,759 --> 00:22:11,039
going for, probably, but.

510
00:22:11,599 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 4: I mean it, it happens.

511
00:22:12,759 --> 00:22:16,599
Speaker 5: I've I've actually heard that several times about several songs

512
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:20,359
that we do, Yeah, which I think is I take

513
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,160
that as as a pretty huge compliment because I don't

514
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:25,839
I've never been one of those guys that can like

515
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,920
just sing a cover song. Yeah, It's got to be

516
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,920
something that really resonates with me. It's got to be

517
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:31,400
something that like means something.

518
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I was playing it, it was like, wow,

519
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,759
you know I really really feel this, you know, was

520
00:22:36,839 --> 00:22:37,839
that challenging to sing?

521
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 4: Yeah?

522
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 5: I mean yes, and no, it's uh yes in the

523
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,640
fact that like it. It's you know, it's pretty up

524
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:50,440
there and it's a hard song in general. But yeah, personally,

525
00:22:50,559 --> 00:22:52,799
Trent Reznor has been like one of my biggest vocal

526
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,720
influences ever. Yeah, And I've been singing that song for

527
00:22:57,079 --> 00:22:59,319
as long as I can remember. Yeah, when I finally

528
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,160
get to get into the with it, and I was like, wow,

529
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,359
all right, like this is this is gonna be awesome.

530
00:23:03,559 --> 00:23:06,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, it came out great. It came out great.

531
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,599
Speaker 1: Is there any kind of a theme to the album?

532
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,440
I mean, you know, it's got a pretty ominous title

533
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,599
of Death in the Family. I'm curious about does the

534
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,519
title have any meaning specifically and is there a theme

535
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:15,839
to this?

536
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 3: To this album?

537
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 5: We had gone through a small lineup change. We had

538
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,759
so since twenty eighteen, we did a trilogy of records

539
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,200
not Dead Yet, Never Say Die and Until Death, and

540
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:35,279
that was our It was just kind of about everything

541
00:23:35,319 --> 00:23:37,160
that was going on at the time and as well

542
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,279
as kind of like a not necessarily a promise or

543
00:23:40,319 --> 00:23:41,559
an oath or something, but something.

544
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 4: That we did for each other, like this, this is it,

545
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:44,200
this is what we're going to do.

546
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, and we for a while we're a six member

547
00:23:49,799 --> 00:23:55,039
band in that fizzled away and that became a Death

548
00:23:55,079 --> 00:23:56,920
in the Family as a way to just kind.

549
00:23:56,759 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 4: Of put closure on that chapter.

550
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 5: Oh okay, and then the thing is that we we

551
00:24:00,759 --> 00:24:03,480
have coming now are moving on to the next chapter.

552
00:24:03,759 --> 00:24:08,799
Speaker 3: Okay, So this band was a six piece at one point. Yeah, wow,

553
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,200
what did the other member.

554
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,839
Speaker 4: Do the little percussion, some backup vocals.

555
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 5: It's kind of an auxiliary, remember yeah, which which was fun,

556
00:24:16,519 --> 00:24:17,920
It was a it was a great thing to have.

557
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:22,319
But I think all that really did was just kind

558
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,519
of solidify our five member band and yeah, and approved

559
00:24:25,559 --> 00:24:29,160
to us that we didn't necessarily need anybody else there

560
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:29,640
with us.

561
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 3: Right right, Yeah. I mean, I know from my own experience,

562
00:24:34,279 --> 00:24:35,640
it's it's hard.

563
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:37,799
Speaker 1: It can be hard enough, you know, like with a

564
00:24:37,839 --> 00:24:39,759
five piece or even a four piece, it can be

565
00:24:39,799 --> 00:24:42,079
hard enough trying to work with everyone's schedules and everyone's

566
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,680
you know, everyone's got lives and and you know, and

567
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,839
trying to book shows and everything. So I can only

568
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,680
imagine what a six piece what that was like. Some

569
00:24:51,799 --> 00:24:53,839
of the it's funny, you know, we have a lot

570
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,599
of singer songwriters on the show, and very often there

571
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,640
are people who used to play in bands who you know,

572
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,759
got they get to a point where it's it's it

573
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,920
just becomes too much to manage. So then they decide

574
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,319
to do their own thing, you know, and and just

575
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,119
and not have to deal with all the Somebody somebody

576
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,960
said to me, I forget who it was who said it.

577
00:25:14,039 --> 00:25:16,319
On the show that being in a band with four

578
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:20,759
other people is like being in four relationships. It's like

579
00:25:20,839 --> 00:25:22,440
it is like or is like being in a relationship

580
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,279
with four other people who are all in a relationship

581
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:25,039
with four other people.

582
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 4: That is true.

583
00:25:27,559 --> 00:25:29,839
Speaker 1: I wish I could remember who said it so I

584
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,799
could give them credit. But I thought it was a

585
00:25:31,839 --> 00:25:35,039
great I thought it was a great insight. But you

586
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:36,839
guys have a lot going on with you know, you're

587
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,440
you're playing a lot, and I mean, is it hard

588
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,240
to is it hard to manage all that with with

589
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:42,759
with a five piece band?

590
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 5: Or I think it would be more difficult if we

591
00:25:46,279 --> 00:25:50,079
weren't as tight knit. Yeah, But the fact that you know,

592
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,839
like these this is we're a team. Yeah, And we

593
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,519
worked very hard to make sure that you know, maybe

594
00:25:56,599 --> 00:25:59,920
we can't grab every opportunity like today with Dorminic Nabi

595
00:26:00,039 --> 00:26:02,640
able to be here, but Dominic also very much understood

596
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,720
and you know, you know, you guys go do this.

597
00:26:04,839 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 4: I have to do some other things right now.

598
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, And that's usually the way it always goes, is

599
00:26:10,039 --> 00:26:12,440
we work very hard to make sure that it's amicable

600
00:26:12,559 --> 00:26:16,720
for everyone and that we're amicable to everything. It might

601
00:26:16,799 --> 00:26:19,240
not be a show Joe's crazy about playing, but he

602
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,440
you know, he believes in his band and he's here

603
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:22,559
for his band, so we can make that.

604
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:23,519
Speaker 4: Work, right.

605
00:26:23,559 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 2: And I think another thing too is that you know,

606
00:26:26,039 --> 00:26:30,359
I've been in bands before where and you know, it's

607
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,519
just like ty said, with a team dynamic on like

608
00:26:32,559 --> 00:26:36,279
a sports team or in a lot of situations, there's

609
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,759
you know, leadership and there's not followers, but like people

610
00:26:40,799 --> 00:26:44,039
who look up to the leader. And Tye being the leader,

611
00:26:44,079 --> 00:26:46,680
he does the booking, he has the majority of the connections,

612
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,000
and he kind of sets the schedule for us. We've

613
00:26:50,039 --> 00:26:53,400
all kind of committed Sunday, you know, Sunday afternoons is

614
00:26:53,519 --> 00:26:55,839
band day. That's when we get together, that's when we practice,

615
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,880
we talk about band business. And then we've got a

616
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,680
group calendar that you know, if there's a date that

617
00:27:02,319 --> 00:27:05,200
anybody can't do something, we put it in the group calendar.

618
00:27:05,599 --> 00:27:09,480
And then other than that, it's basically free reign. Yeah,

619
00:27:10,039 --> 00:27:14,000
and ty knows to you know, he does writ by

620
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,599
us and not booking something that's gonna totally you know,

621
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,519
derail everybody's lives because you know, as much as we'd

622
00:27:23,559 --> 00:27:28,440
all love to be the full time touring bands and everything.

623
00:27:28,519 --> 00:27:30,720
It's it's so hard to get to that level. So yeah,

624
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:31,799
we get day jobs.

625
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, of course.

626
00:27:34,079 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 1: Do you guys like, how how far do you go

627
00:27:36,279 --> 00:27:37,839
in terms of when you're playing shows, Like you said,

628
00:27:37,839 --> 00:27:38,480
you're playing a lot.

629
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 5: You get out of New England, do you go, We'll

630
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,359
go wherever we'll have us. Yeah, we just we want

631
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,200
to get out to as many people as possible. But

632
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,200
we love new venues, we love new bands, we love

633
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,519
all the things that we were very lucky enough to

634
00:27:51,559 --> 00:27:54,160
get to do. So anywhere that we'll have us, we

635
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,119
are we are glad to go.

636
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, excellent. Where does the name come from? By

637
00:27:57,799 --> 00:27:58,920
the way, scarecrow Hill.

638
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 5: That we have been we have ended this question for

639
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:06,039
so long, So scarecrow Hill. It was actually when when

640
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,680
we were very first trying to start this band, we

641
00:28:09,759 --> 00:28:12,440
had had a different name and everything, and we had

642
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,880
written kind of like this mission statement. It was like

643
00:28:17,039 --> 00:28:20,799
partial lyrics, partial, just eighteen year old Bravado. And yeah,

644
00:28:21,519 --> 00:28:24,119
we had used the term scarecrow Hill as a metaphor

645
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,119
because you know, scarecrows are.

646
00:28:28,519 --> 00:28:29,519
Speaker 4: They're they're warning.

647
00:28:29,799 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 5: It's like to stay away from somewhere, it's to keep

648
00:28:32,039 --> 00:28:35,359
you out of something and hills are like steep and

649
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,720
hard to climb, and so we used scarecrow Hill as

650
00:28:37,759 --> 00:28:41,319
a metaphor of like we need to get past a

651
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,599
scarecrow hill into the music business.

652
00:28:43,799 --> 00:28:45,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's.

653
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 5: Actually my mom looked at us and was like, that's

654
00:28:47,519 --> 00:28:49,680
your band name, Like, that's that's what your band name

655
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:50,039
should be.

656
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're all right, we'll give it a shot. It's different.

657
00:28:53,359 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, And it's speaking of moms, Hi, moms, yes, time, moms.

658
00:29:00,839 --> 00:29:02,680
What was what was the do you want to say

659
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:03,200
what the name was?

660
00:29:03,279 --> 00:29:03,559
Speaker 4: Before?

661
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:04,039
Speaker 3: You see?

662
00:29:04,319 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 4: We were called standing Room.

663
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,039
Speaker 1: Because I love hearing about rejected band names to the

664
00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:11,160
standing room? Why why didn't you? Why didn't you stick

665
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:11,400
with that?

666
00:29:12,319 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 5: Honestly, just like I said when she was like, scarecrow

667
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,640
Hill is a better band name. It does sound kind

668
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:17,920
of cool.

669
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 3: Actually yeah, yeah, yeah, I do think it's a better

670
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,319
name than standing Room. Yeah, no doubt.

671
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,119
Speaker 1: Well let's oh boy, my voice is cracking. Let's do this,

672
00:29:27,279 --> 00:29:28,839
which is the perfect time to do this because we

673
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,319
were talking about it. Let's play uh, let's play wearing

674
00:29:31,359 --> 00:29:31,799
this together.

675
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 7: Now.

676
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 3: I just I'm so amazed by this.

677
00:29:34,559 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: Now, who's because obviously this this is not the full

678
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,880
band on this track, So who else is playing?

679
00:29:40,039 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 3: Who else is doing what on this.

680
00:29:42,759 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, So myself and our our other producer, Joe Clapp,

681
00:29:46,319 --> 00:29:49,039
did a lot of stuff, and then there was a

682
00:29:50,319 --> 00:29:53,359
lady that we had reached out to a couple of

683
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:57,200
years back actually to get some of the original piano pieces,

684
00:29:58,119 --> 00:30:00,480
and we just kind of combined every thing, and then

685
00:30:00,519 --> 00:30:02,680
he and I sat in the booth and did a

686
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,720
lot a lot of additional piano and the strings and

687
00:30:05,759 --> 00:30:06,720
all that kind of stuff, and.

688
00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:10,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, now it's really impressive. So I'm eager to play it.

689
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,119

721
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:48,960

Speaker 7: He didn't answer everything you don't cleaning on the jack

723
00:34:59,119 --> 00:34:59,880
everything else.

724
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:39,320
Speaker 3: H H, that's so good.

725
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 1: I didn't even want to talk over that slow fade.

726
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:42,679
At the end, I was like, no, I got to

727
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:44,480
give that a few more seconds. That's intense.

728
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:45,639
Speaker 3: That is so good.

729
00:35:46,199 --> 00:35:48,519
Speaker 1: Scarecrow Hill is here with us in studio if you

730
00:35:48,599 --> 00:35:51,599
are just joining us, and that is their cover of

731
00:35:52,199 --> 00:35:55,039
We're in This Together Now by Nine Inch Nails and yeah, great,

732
00:35:55,119 --> 00:35:59,360
great job on that. What do you guys, uh, what

733
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,199
do you guys coming up in terms of are you

734
00:36:02,519 --> 00:36:04,639
are you already working on material for I know this

735
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,400
album just came out, but you know, you strike me

736
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,280
as guys who probably have a lot of ideas, who're

737
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,000
probably already working on some new stuff.

738
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 4: We're pretty much constantly.

739
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 5: Anytime we put anything out, we'll give it a few

740
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,400
months and really hone in on the live part of

741
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,559
the show and things that we got to do. But

742
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,760
I think genuinely we enjoy writing together so much that

743
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,599
we just we never stopped. It's yeah, we we just

744
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,360
came finished and started polishing a new track a week ago.

745
00:36:36,599 --> 00:36:36,760
Speaker 4: Yeah.

746
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 12: Well that's like the exciting part because I'm speaking for myself,

747
00:36:40,519 --> 00:36:43,440
I'm kind of the impatient type. But pretty much even

748
00:36:43,519 --> 00:36:47,320
before we put an album out, we're already kind of

749
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,559
looking at the next next new material that we're going

750
00:36:50,599 --> 00:36:54,079
to be writing, and we're looking at ways really, how

751
00:36:55,199 --> 00:37:00,199
one we can improve in two, how we can I

752
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,960
don't just moving forward, what we can do to evolve

753
00:37:03,159 --> 00:37:06,920
our sound, yeah, which you know, I think it's.

754
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,480
Speaker 2: Awesome, And there's a lot of a lot of time.

755
00:37:08,519 --> 00:37:12,039
There's enough time between when you're done writing a batch

756
00:37:12,079 --> 00:37:14,719
of songs for a record and the time that that

757
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:20,559
comes out, that between that you're already I mean personally,

758
00:37:20,639 --> 00:37:23,199
sometimes I get a little fatigued from like the writing

759
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,440
and recording process. So like to have like maybe even

760
00:37:26,599 --> 00:37:28,400
just like a month to kind of like forget about

761
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,360
it is good. Yeah, But even still, like once we're

762
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,199
done with the writing and recording, even before the next

763
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,199
one comes out, it's a lot of the time it's

764
00:37:35,199 --> 00:37:38,119
already creative juices are flowing for the next thing.

765
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt exactly. And honestly, it comes to the

766
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:41,840
most random times.

767
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,039
Speaker 12: I always joke around like some of the best ideas

768
00:37:45,119 --> 00:37:48,840
coming to me in the shower evolved. Yeah, And you know,

769
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,480
if that's the case, it could be a day after

770
00:37:51,559 --> 00:37:54,599
we put out the new album and already putting down

771
00:37:54,639 --> 00:37:57,719
new ideas. Sometimes you're listening to the final mix of

772
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:01,159
the album and you're like, oh, really good idea you

773
00:38:01,199 --> 00:38:04,159
know all right, Yeah, it's always an evolving process.

774
00:38:04,159 --> 00:38:06,039
Speaker 2: And that's the thing I think I love most about it.

775
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 7: I think we do.

776
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,559
Speaker 3: I shouldn't even speak for myself, we all do.

777
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 9: Do.

778
00:38:10,079 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 1: Any of the songs that you guys are working on,

779
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,880
you end up playing them out live before before they've

780
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:14,360
been recording.

781
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:18,760
Speaker 3: Usually the Yeah, not all, but sometimes yeah, yeah.

782
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 2: There's usually like if we put out a record that

783
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,480
I mean, the first three of the tri that that

784
00:38:24,599 --> 00:38:26,760
trilogy that was that I I was talking about earlier

785
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:31,000
was the start of that was the beginning of this

786
00:38:31,159 --> 00:38:35,440
iteration of the lineup. So since then, there was always

787
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,159
like one or two or three that were like the

788
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,559
ones that we knew would would go over well live,

789
00:38:40,679 --> 00:38:42,480
and those were always the ones that we took out

790
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,920
and played first before anything came out.

791
00:38:45,079 --> 00:38:47,639
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah that makes sense, that makes sense.

792
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:52,280
Speaker 1: And then, uh so so even though obviously we're in winter,

793
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,480
a lot of bands kind of slowed down with the

794
00:38:54,559 --> 00:38:56,159
live shows, but it sounds like, are you guys gonna

795
00:38:56,199 --> 00:38:57,840
be continuing to play through the winter.

796
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:00,800
Speaker 5: Uh yeah, So we've got We've got a more this month,

797
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:05,280
and then we're actually we're taking our first break from

798
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:09,119
live shows in almost three years. Wow, We're taking the

799
00:39:09,159 --> 00:39:14,360
month of February to kind of go home and reassess

800
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:17,239
and rehune in on some things and get some things

801
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,920
lined back up. But then I mean, right the first

802
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:21,800
week in March, we're right back at it. We're back

803
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:22,239
out of there.

804
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 3: So excellent.

805
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 4: Nice to have a little time off, But I'm glad

806
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,079
it's the shortest month.

807
00:39:27,119 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 3: Right, yeah, yeah, exactly.

808
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: Well, it seems like you have a lot of momentum

809
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,599
and uh, you know, like I said, the album is great.

810
00:39:36,039 --> 00:39:39,000
And then, by the way, do you guys do any

811
00:39:39,039 --> 00:39:42,440
covers live other than I don't, like, I don't know really,

812
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,119
I'm just all I was curious. I always say you

813
00:39:46,159 --> 00:39:47,639
can kind of tell tell a little bit about a

814
00:39:47,679 --> 00:39:49,559
band's influences by the covers that they do. But you

815
00:39:49,599 --> 00:39:52,960
guys have such an interesting sound and such a disparate

816
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,400
influences anyway, that which I think is really cool. Is

817
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:58,880
there anybody in the scene, by the way, that you

818
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:00,559
play a lot of shows with? You know, sometimes it

819
00:40:00,599 --> 00:40:03,800
happens organically, you just end up sort of teaming up

820
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,440
unofficially with bands.

821
00:40:05,119 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 3: And like like like who who uh who around here?

822
00:40:08,039 --> 00:40:08,960
Do you guys play a lot with.

823
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, like, like we said, we get Rags

824
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:13,320
of Stitches right here in New Hampshire.

825
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 3: Oh, I finally remembered. Now why Jenny, you know why

826
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,039
that Dave is so familiar. We saw them at a

827
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:23,400
Spelfy fest. Rags of Stitches was there, That's why. Okay,

828
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,679
so yeah, we will get them on. I'm sorry, I mean,

829
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:26,360
but yeah.

830
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 5: So we love this and I mean there's fear of

831
00:40:29,519 --> 00:40:32,199
the Masses out of Connecticut or you know, good Buddies

832
00:40:32,199 --> 00:40:32,599
of ours that.

833
00:40:32,599 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 4: We play with a lot.

834
00:40:33,519 --> 00:40:34,320
Speaker 3: That's a name I've heard.

835
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're they're phenomenal.

836
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 2: The Great Curtain. Shout out the Great Curtain.

837
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,599
Speaker 3: Oh I love we had the Great Curtain on the show.

838
00:40:40,679 --> 00:40:42,079
Great band. Yeah, great band.

839
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 2: Dennis Layton is great, one of the one of the

840
00:40:45,079 --> 00:40:46,599
greatest humans you will ever meet.

841
00:40:46,679 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 3: Oh he's awesome.

842
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,039
Speaker 1: And another guy who too like really tries to do

843
00:40:50,159 --> 00:40:52,920
something different, yes, like really unique.

844
00:40:53,039 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 3: Oh love love that band.

845
00:40:54,559 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 2: You cannot say that he is not one hundred percent

846
00:40:57,639 --> 00:41:00,320
himself when he's doing what he's doing. He's not trying

847
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:01,519
to be anything else other than that.

848
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

849
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,119
Speaker 5: It's one of the things that we all really seem

850
00:41:06,159 --> 00:41:08,199
to love and enjoy about the New England scene is

851
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,719
there'sn't a whole lot of competition going on like in

852
00:41:13,199 --> 00:41:19,320
some scenes around. It's much more of a teamwork thing

853
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,199
that a lot of bands that are friends, a lot

854
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:21,800
of bands.

855
00:41:21,639 --> 00:41:23,679
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, Rising Tide lifts all ships.

856
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.

857
00:41:24,679 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 5: And we'll go play this show, you know, down in

858
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,280
the middle of nowhere, Connecticut, and there's ten bands on

859
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,639
the bill, and eight of them are bands that we've

860
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,760
played twenty five shows with, yeah, and guys that we're

861
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,880
like genuinely looking forward to seeing, right. It makes it

862
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:41,199
a lot of fun, It makes it very cool.

863
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:41,599
Speaker 3: Yeah.

864
00:41:42,039 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 1: I always feel like, you know, music is very much

865
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,079
people are supportive of each other. I always kind of

866
00:41:48,119 --> 00:41:51,480
contrast it with stand up comedy because I listen to

867
00:41:51,559 --> 00:41:53,360
some podcasts where, you know, you've got these stand up

868
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:56,480
comics who talk about about that industry, and my impression

869
00:41:56,599 --> 00:41:59,000
is that in stand up comedy, everyone is very cutthroat

870
00:41:59,039 --> 00:42:01,280
and everyone kind of secretly hates each other. And I

871
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:04,039
feel like music is the opposite of that. Like in music,

872
00:42:04,119 --> 00:42:04,679
I mean, don't.

873
00:42:04,519 --> 00:42:06,239
Speaker 3: Get me wrong, there are sharks and there are cutthroat

874
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,599
people in the music industry too, obviously, but I think

875
00:42:08,679 --> 00:42:12,480
generally musicians try to really support each other and try

876
00:42:12,519 --> 00:42:14,400
to support each other and uplift everybody.

877
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,199
Speaker 1: So I so I think that's that's really cool. And

878
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,800
then do you guys, what do you guys have coming up?

879
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:22,800
Do you have any shows this weekend that you're playing

880
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:23,440
that you want to plug?

881
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:27,039
Speaker 5: We have so on January fifteenth, we're actually at the

882
00:42:27,119 --> 00:42:31,920
Worcester Palladium with Dropout Kings and The Browning Okay.

883
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:33,800
Speaker 4: Which we're very much looking forward to.

884
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:38,639
Speaker 5: Excellent, and then yeah we get gosh on the seventeenth,

885
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,480
we're in our hometown, which is a rare thing but

886
00:42:41,559 --> 00:42:42,159
an awesome thing.

887
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 4: We love getting to play there.

888
00:42:45,679 --> 00:42:46,079
Speaker 3: Where is that?

889
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,519
Speaker 4: That's at a place called the New World Tavern in Plymouth,

890
00:42:49,639 --> 00:42:50,440
mass Excellent.

891
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 2: One of the coolest venues in that section of Massachusetts. Yeah,

892
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,840
for sure. Okay, it's like a very like when you

893
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,360
go in the front, it's a very unassuming tavern looking place,

894
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,079
but you go down the little hallway to the back

895
00:43:01,119 --> 00:43:04,159
and there's probably like a two hundred person venue with

896
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,000
a nice stage sound set up. It's it's pretty awesome.

897
00:43:07,119 --> 00:43:08,079
Speaker 4: They treat us very well.

898
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,639
Speaker 3: That's awesome. That's awesome. Well, guys, the time goes so quick.

899
00:43:12,639 --> 00:43:14,639
Speaker 1: We're already approaching the top of the hour, and I

900
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,199
am going to play to end the segment this track

901
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,559
Wasting Time, another great, great song. I really like this

902
00:43:20,639 --> 00:43:22,840
one a lot from the new album of Death in

903
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,920
the Family from Scarecrow Hill. But before we let you

904
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,199
go to what should our listeners know about? Where to

905
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,039
keep up with everything that you're doing online? Where's the

906
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:31,159
best place to go?

907
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,519
Speaker 5: I mean, just like anybody else man where we have

908
00:43:33,639 --> 00:43:37,000
the Instagram, Facebook, any anywhere there's a band begging for attention,

909
00:43:37,119 --> 00:43:37,360
We're on.

910
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:41,760
Speaker 3: There you go, there you go? All right, guys, thank

911
