Mark Sanderson is joining me today. 10 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,640 Hello Mark, How are things up in Yonder Highlands? Oh? 11 00:00:53,719 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 2: Hi, Captain. Things have been windy and wet for about 12 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:57,759 two weeks. 13 00:00:57,759 --> 00:01:02,719 Speaker 1: It's wank lovely stuff. I went to my first show 14 00:01:02,759 --> 00:01:06,280 of the year yesterday, the gear calendar starting off for me, 15 00:01:06,879 --> 00:01:10,719 and it was Cryptopsy, who were one of the kind 16 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,719 of last of the big nineties death metal bands who 17 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,319 I hadn't seen. I missed them Incineration last year because 18 00:01:17,359 --> 00:01:20,280 of the staging stuff, but it was something of a 19 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,719 joint tour for their newest album that came out last 20 00:01:23,799 --> 00:01:29,719 year and also simultaneously the thirtieth anniversary of their most 21 00:01:29,799 --> 00:01:33,159 classic album, None So Vile, which is one of the 22 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:38,760 most just like deliriously aggressive psychotic death metal records ever. 23 00:01:39,439 --> 00:01:43,680 And you know, I must say, like I overall like Cryptopsy, 24 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,799 but the only era of the band that I truly 25 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,959 love is the first couple of records with like you know, 26 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,280 lord Worm on vocals and all that they have. They've 27 00:01:52,319 --> 00:01:54,799 had something of a minor comeback lately, like putting out 28 00:01:54,799 --> 00:01:58,239 some well received records for like a you know, thirty 29 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,400 years whatever in death metal band, and they're decent albums, 30 00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:05,359 but they're not septic like nonso Vile is. And it's 31 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,680 one of those cases where basically the entire band that 32 00:02:08,719 --> 00:02:11,000 made that record is not in the band anymore, only 33 00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:14,599 the drummer Flowmnia, which if that sounds funny to only 34 00:02:14,599 --> 00:02:16,520 have the drummer left, I can say with Kryptopsy, if 35 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,599 you were going to pick one member to man the ship, 36 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,520 it might as well be the drummer because he's nuts. 37 00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:25,400 But I thought, you know, a heavily nonso vile leaning 38 00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:27,879 set might as well be you know, the time for 39 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,840 me to tip them off, even if you know it's 40 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,280 never going to be quite the same, that the vocals 41 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,439 aren't going to be quite as fucked up because it's 42 00:02:34,439 --> 00:02:36,159 not lord Worm and you know all that stuff, and 43 00:02:36,199 --> 00:02:37,719 it was a bit of saying that the album is 44 00:02:37,759 --> 00:02:40,400 like barely over half an hour long, and they played 45 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,240 six out of the eight songs from it, and of 46 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,479 the two that they didn't play, one of them dead 47 00:02:45,479 --> 00:02:47,560 but Dripping is like a contender for my favorite song 48 00:02:47,599 --> 00:02:48,919 of the album. So it's like trapped, but you know, 49 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,520 what can you do? People were you know, popping for 50 00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:55,560 the samples that are in there, for the bass twang breakdowns, 51 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,960 which were just like stupid and bone crunching. I should 52 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,680 say as well. Two hundred stab Wounds were supporting, and 53 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,240 it was like a completely you know, sold out show, 54 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,159 and I would imagine, you know, obviously Ryptopsy pull a 55 00:03:06,199 --> 00:03:08,240 decent amount on their own, but having a kind of younger, 56 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,479 buzzy a death a band with them probably helped with 57 00:03:10,599 --> 00:03:12,639 that as well. And I would say there was a 58 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,879 sizeable gen Z contingent of the crowd compared to like 59 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,400 some of the more necro death metal shows I go to, 60 00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:22,960 where it's all you know, grumpy geezers and leather jackets 61 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,919 like me. And I think two hundred ab Wounds are 62 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,400 like a pretty good band, you know, not a spectacular one. 63 00:03:29,439 --> 00:03:32,080 They're just a rock solid death metal band, but it 64 00:03:32,159 --> 00:03:35,199 was so rowdy, like people were just like moshing and 65 00:03:35,639 --> 00:03:39,639 crowdsurfing and pit you know, spilling everywhere, going crazy, like 66 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,960 a really animated reception for a death metal band. And 67 00:03:43,439 --> 00:03:45,840 then Kryptopsy, like those songs from Done So Vile are 68 00:03:45,919 --> 00:03:48,800 just dizzying, you know, just a fucking barrage. And at 69 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,520 one point the guitarist was like playing guitar like on 70 00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:55,280 his fretting hand with throwing the horns across the threats. Yeah, 71 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,039 that was awesome. So yeah, Kryptopsy kicking off my gig 72 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,680 calendar for twenty twin None So Vile Indeed news today, 73 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,400 we're starting off with the brit Award nominations, which I 74 00:04:07,599 --> 00:04:09,639 you know, gun to my head, I could not tell 75 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,879 you anything that's you know, happens at the brit Awards 76 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,599 year to year, but occasionally stuff like this pops up, 77 00:04:14,919 --> 00:04:17,199 and a few of the T and M Universe bands 78 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,360 have been nominated for this year, Turnstile, Sleep Token and 79 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,759 Geese as well, who you know Elliot mentioned quite heavily 80 00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:24,920 in the in the end of year stuff at the 81 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,000 end of last year, but all of them are up 82 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,680 for brit Awards. Sleep Token, you know, being a British Band. 83 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,839 They are up for you know, Best Group. Turnstile are 84 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,079 up for Best International Group, and I guess it's you know, 85 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,600 you shouldn't be surprised by anything Turnstile do at this stage. 86 00:04:37,639 --> 00:04:40,360 I'm normally not surprised when Turnstile do something massive because 87 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,800 they're a massive band now, But the brit Awards are 88 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,959 like so aggressively normy.

Either way, really bad ass that 96 00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:21,480 Turnstile are there, like unexpectedly cool for an institution I 97 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,560 view is not worthy of my time. 98 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,439 Speaker 1: Like the Bricks, yeah, very much the same. Bring Me 99 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,199 the Horizon have announced that they have got a concert 100 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,959 movie called Live in South Paolo, and live is an 101 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,199 apparently an acronym for live immersive virtual experiment, because, as 102 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,480 we know, Bringing the Horizon a very bad ass and 103 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,800 very futuristic is you know, capturing their their recent tour 104 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,480 specifically here obviously the day in South Paolo, because it's Brazil, 105 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,279 it's fucking massive, Like any time anyone plays in Brazil, 106 00:05:51,319 --> 00:05:53,439 Like there was a Lady Gaga show recently where she 107 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,600 played to like fucking millions of people.

And 114 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,639 I feel like, you know, maybe it's a more recent trend, 115 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,399 you know, in the last couple of years. Obviously we 116 00:06:19,399 --> 00:06:21,040 had the Ghost one.

I imagine they put a lot of 155 00:08:12,399 --> 00:08:16,279 effort into their show, especially if they're playing a stadium 156 00:08:16,279 --> 00:08:19,160 their biggest show ever. I'm sure there's spectacle to it, 157 00:08:20,639 --> 00:08:23,160 al that the track list is two inspiring, but I'm 158 00:08:23,199 --> 00:08:26,519 sure it'd be easy to get swept up on it 159 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,319 if it's on the big screen like that. 160 00:08:29,319 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I'm not in a rush to go 161 00:08:30,759 --> 00:08:32,559 and see the concert film because I'm in the opposite 162 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,720 position to you of like having seen this particular show. 163 00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:37,639 But you know, if I again, I needed to, you know, 164 00:08:37,879 --> 00:08:41,559 see it in comfort of a you know, an armchair environment, 165 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,840 and that was my way of seeing it, then sure thing. 166 00:08:43,879 --> 00:08:45,600 But yeah, like I said, more and more of these 167 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,200 concert films seemingly hitting cinemas of Late You at Music. 168 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,120 It starts with somehow they knew that the week that 169 00:08:52,159 --> 00:08:54,360 you were going to be on here doing the hyperatamy 170 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,600 is of course the week that def Leppard come out 171 00:08:56,639 --> 00:09:00,519 of hiding to release their new music. If the thing 172 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,000 I like about this is it's a single that they've 173 00:09:04,039 --> 00:09:07,840 released ahead of a Las Vegas residency, which is such 174 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,200 like if the song itself did not convey a certain, 175 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,399 you know, elderly vintage of Korea, the fact that it's like, 176 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,720 we're gonna come and play a residency in just Las Vegas, 177 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,440 which is a very you know, legacy way of doing things, 178 00:09:21,039 --> 00:09:22,679 then that really really screams it.

The production on it is really 185 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,120 really bad. I don't know, like theyn't released a record 186 00:09:46,159 --> 00:09:49,159 in twenty twenty two that didn't sound that like, it 187 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,240 didn't sound great, but it didn't sound this amateur. 188 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,039 Speaker 1: They've described it as saying it's got a bit more 189 00:09:55,039 --> 00:09:56,799 oomph than stuff we've been doing for a while. 190 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:03,039 Speaker 2: Oh my god. I mean, ah, sure, sure, I although 191 00:10:03,039 --> 00:10:05,480 I will say I listened to it again this morning 192 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,039 while I was just I had it on in the 193 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,440 background and I nodded my head and forgot what I 194 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,000 was listening to and enjoyed it. But that's not that's 195 00:10:13,039 --> 00:10:15,960 not an endorsement that Mark Sanderson enjoyed a fucking deaf 196 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,480 Leopard song in the background. 197 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, it does. I listened to it before this, and 198 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,679 it just it sounds like hearing Death Leopard through like 199 00:10:24,799 --> 00:10:28,639 a smear, Like it's just like there's a weird there's 200 00:10:28,639 --> 00:10:31,679 some kind of weird, smudged quality that is between you 201 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:32,399 and Death. 202 00:10:32,279 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 2: Leopards, like you're listening to where there's a pillow in 203 00:10:35,639 --> 00:10:38,200 front of the speaker or something, you know what I mean. 204 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,840 There's just something dampening the sound of it. 205 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. Mirka is currently in the midst of trying to 206 00:10:45,159 --> 00:10:48,919 run for Eurovision, I think is what this is she 207 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,039 is putting. She's released a single and she's put it 208 00:10:51,039 --> 00:10:55,600 forward for some Danish melodic prize. Uh and if she 209 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,120 wins that thing, then she de facto I believe this. 210 00:10:58,159 --> 00:11:03,399 How it works, becomes dead Ox Eurovision contestant, which you know, 211 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,879 obviously don't know if she will win this particular you know, 212 00:11:05,919 --> 00:11:08,840 first stage of doing that. But if you was one 213 00:11:08,879 --> 00:11:11,080 of those you know, black little fans who was hating 214 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,279 Miaka and everything she stood for ten years ago, I 215 00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:17,080 can only imagine how you would be at this particular thing. 216 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:21,279 But maybe we'll be seeing Mirka appearing on Eurovision you 217 00:11:21,279 --> 00:11:24,080 know screens very very soon. Let's get back to some 218 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,399 more sensible new material. Exodus have got their first new 219 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,600 song out, featuring the return of frontman Rob Dukes since 220 00:11:32,639 --> 00:11:35,519 his you know, last period in the band over fifteen 221 00:11:35,639 --> 00:11:38,720 years ago. This is from their new album, which is 222 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,360 called Goliath. It's coming out in March. First album about 223 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:43,919 five years, and they've released a song from it called 224 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,480 three to one one one. As said, you know, first 225 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,679 with Rob Dukes and revisiting some of the Rob Duke 226 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,559 stuff lately in lieu of him, you know, coming back 227 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,559 to the band. I saw them live with you know, 228 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,200 Rob last year, and some of those records like shovel 229 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:03,600 Headed kill Machine absolutely fucking goes, and like like watching 230 00:12:03,639 --> 00:12:06,240 them playing like death Anthetamine and stuff. I mean, like 231 00:12:06,399 --> 00:12:09,440 the riffs on this are nuts so and like, yeah, 232 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,639 that was now, you know, over twenty years ago, and 233 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,679 you know, many thrash bands had their really returned to 234 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,399 form records in the two thousands and then have kind 235 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,799 of gone off it. I think the last Extrace album 236 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,639 from twenty twenty one is like, you know, pretty good. 237 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,200 They're still upper, you know, standard in the scheme of things, 238 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,600 but it was maybe a more forgettable one by their 239 00:12:25,639 --> 00:12:28,279 standard than some of the others. This track, I think 240 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:32,960 the song itself is essentially of that standard, but the 241 00:12:33,039 --> 00:12:36,519 main thing checking out of notice it is going ah yeah, 242 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,600 Rob Duke still sounds like an act murderer. 243 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:44,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very fun, it's very listenable. I liked having 244 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,799 it on. The rifts sound tight enough, you know, It's 245 00:12:48,919 --> 00:12:53,919 it's a pretty good latter day career thrash song, you know, 246 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,159 and Rob does sound like a fucking maniac, so fair 247 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:57,799 play to him. 248 00:12:58,799 --> 00:13:02,279 Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely. Wild Voice always had one of those in 249 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,720 the you know, the realm of thrashmat vocalists. There's kind 250 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,360 of a cool breakdowny part with these like slayery wire 251 00:13:07,399 --> 00:13:10,120 feedback noises that takes over the second half. It's a 252 00:13:10,159 --> 00:13:12,240 decent track. I think also of noticed obviously the fact 253 00:13:12,279 --> 00:13:15,279 that this is ahead of them Aperial on what I 254 00:13:15,279 --> 00:13:17,159 think is one of the more kind of like more 255 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,759 anticipated metal tours in the UK of like the next 256 00:13:21,039 --> 00:13:23,159 year or so, which is that big Creator run with 257 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,120 you know, Creator and carcass in Nails. Exodus a part 258 00:13:26,159 --> 00:13:28,480 of that, so you know new Exos material coming if 259 00:13:28,519 --> 00:13:30,720 you are attending that particular run, which you bloody should 260 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,039 because that's it's an amazing bill, isn't it. An album 261 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,080 that I can get very excited about is the new 262 00:13:35,159 --> 00:13:39,720 Immolation record, which is called Descent, is out April tenth. 263 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,559 They Traffament called Adversary Immolation. Their last album, Acts of God, 264 00:13:43,759 --> 00:13:46,720 is fucking incredible. They are to me one of the 265 00:13:46,919 --> 00:13:51,000 absolute best of the old guard death metal bands still 266 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,679 in the present day, and so in terms of bands 267 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,759 like that, I'm going to anticipate albums for they are 268 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,080 right right up there in the upper upper league of that. 269 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:03,000 And this track is crushing. It's really well produced, like 270 00:14:03,039 --> 00:14:04,919 it sounds just fucking killer in the way their last 271 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,600 couple of albums has done. The intro riff is just 272 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,480 like a fury and it's and it's catchy as well. 273 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,519 So I mean, I would always be on board with Imlasia, 274 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,720 but this essentially sounds like everything that I love, particularly 275 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,639 about the last record Acts of God's is still like 276 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,440 on you know, on that standard and coming still, so 277 00:14:21,519 --> 00:14:22,759 I can still be excited about this. 278 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, this rips and you know, it gets going. 279 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,320 It's really fast and furious, and you're like, oh yeah, 280 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,320 this hits a really nice death metal itch. It really 281 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,399 scratches a niche and then like I don't know, over 282 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,559 a minute in a really really fucked up like squeaky 283 00:14:40,679 --> 00:14:47,279 riff comes in and it is so exhilarating. Immolation are brilliant, 284 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,840 Like I don't know, not that I doubted them, but 285 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:55,679 I did. Sometimes when bands have really great late career records, 286 00:14:56,519 --> 00:15:02,440 I do assign myself sort of to like, if the 287 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,919 next one isn't as good, that's okay, you know, burns 288 00:15:04,919 --> 00:15:07,720 get older. Yeah, but that this one, I can't wait. 289 00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:10,759 This song fucking is raging. Yeah. 290 00:15:10,879 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: Track of the week for sure. Sorry Death Leopard, although 291 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,039 we should also say as well, Haggard Cat have announced 292 00:15:16,039 --> 00:15:17,840 a new album as well that's coming out on maybe 293 00:15:17,919 --> 00:15:19,279 eighth and this is their Like when was the last 294 00:15:19,279 --> 00:15:20,879 Haggard Cat album.

I've always 305 00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:52,120 liked Haggard Cat, but they always lean into the sort 306 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,519 of the bluesy, the fuzzed up thing that I could 307 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,559 go for a bit less, but I've always enjoyed them, 308 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,519 and that in twenty one and I really enjoyed this 309 00:16:03,679 --> 00:16:07,600 sort of this new track leans away from the fuzzed up, 310 00:16:07,759 --> 00:16:12,159 sort of bluesy side. It's almost more big, yeah, And 311 00:16:12,159 --> 00:16:15,759 there's a tinge of like heavy metal in sort of 312 00:16:15,799 --> 00:16:20,279 the tail of the riffs. And I think this is wicked. 313 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:25,720 Like Matt sounds big and powerful, the guitar tone sounds 314 00:16:26,279 --> 00:16:29,559 so heavy.

It was really sick. 364 00:18:55,319 --> 00:18:57,640 But I was a bit exhausted after dancing to Peeling 365 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,559 Flesh before Irish came on. 366 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I wasn't able to make make that unfortunately, But 367 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,319 if you do want some, you know, UK based live 368 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,799 announcements of the last week, there are a couple that 369 00:19:07,839 --> 00:19:10,039 do stand out. I suppose one is there is a 370 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,960 festival that has been announced it taking place in Lead 371 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,839 called Quiet Steps Festival, and this very much seems to 372 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,759 be leaning on a kind of old school emo and 373 00:19:20,839 --> 00:19:24,559 post hardcore kind of material. And their first round of 374 00:19:24,599 --> 00:19:28,319 bands that they've announced first of all, is includes I'll 375 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:29,799 be with a bunch of bands. I don't know. I'm 376 00:19:29,799 --> 00:19:31,440 not familiar with a lot of these bands, but the 377 00:19:31,519 --> 00:19:34,720 name that jumps out on the poster is Braid. Mark. 378 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,799 Braid are playing a festival in Leeds. 379 00:19:37,799 --> 00:19:41,319 Speaker 2: That's mad because I didn't even realize Braid were still 380 00:19:41,599 --> 00:19:43,279 you know, playing shows right now. 381 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I never see them on anything, No. 382 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 2: Especially over here. I think, you know, they pop up 383 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,400 in the state. The fact that this is a new 384 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,880 fest of all and the headliner and you're sort of 385 00:19:54,079 --> 00:19:57,920 leading with is Braid, really paints a picture of what, yeah, 386 00:19:58,079 --> 00:20:00,119 type of thing this is. And I do think it 387 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:04,880 is a market that hasn't really been sold to a 388 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,400 lot outside of like bits and pieces at Outbreak maybe. 389 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:15,240 So to have a whole, you know, boutique festival for 390 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,720 this Emil crowd is quite exciting and like if Bred 391 00:20:19,839 --> 00:20:22,480 in the UK, I might try and go like that 392 00:20:22,599 --> 00:20:23,279 is so cool. 393 00:20:23,559 --> 00:20:27,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if it's especially large event.

But yeah, you 396 00:20:30,519 --> 00:20:32,880 are right in terms of, you know, if I can 397 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:34,680 see it being the kind of thing that would draw 398 00:20:34,839 --> 00:20:38,680 like the real devotees of this thing, who may maybe 399 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,920 when you know these kind of bands have been booked 400 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,960 for Outbreak or Art Tangent or whatever, they're a little 401 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,880 bit more piecemeal, I suppose, like they're mixed into a larger, 402 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,599 you know, kind of pie of larger stuff. I can 403 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,119 see people being like, oh man, yeah, I've got to 404 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:52,359 really make it over there to see some of these 405 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,680 bands who maybe are around very often, and then also 406 00:20:54,759 --> 00:20:56,759 get I guess with you in mind. Wolves in the 407 00:20:56,799 --> 00:21:00,880 Throne Room have announced just right now to Scottish dates 408 00:21:01,839 --> 00:21:05,200 coming over to the UK in August, with Spectral Wound 409 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,400 supporting them, which are bloody good.

An extremely honest character, 429 00:22:06,079 --> 00:22:09,400 but a great story. Bravo to whoever duped him into 430 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,359 that particular thing. Let's get some questions going, and these 431 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,359 questions come from the discord for that's my patrons. If 432 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:17,960 you want to ask questions as well, you can also 433 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,279 go to the That's a Facebook group. Gallimim kicks us 434 00:22:22,279 --> 00:22:25,000 off saying was there ever a TNM award that you 435 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,759 would change? In retrospect, Mark, I was curious if you 436 00:22:27,759 --> 00:22:28,519 had an answer for this. 437 00:22:29,279 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 2: Not too many that I like, regret regret, but there's 438 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,720 a couple I look back on and think, I could 439 00:22:35,799 --> 00:22:39,720 you know? In retrospect In twenty twenty two, I gave 440 00:22:39,799 --> 00:22:44,200 best Song to Beautiful Losers from the Coheden Cambria album, 441 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,839 which is a song I still adore. I love that song, 442 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,319 but surely it's spill Ways, Mark, come. 443 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: On, which was my answer. 444 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I remember at the time you'd being like, hmm, 445 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,839 not spill ways. That's interesting, you'll realizing, oh, yeah, it's 446 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,720 the waste, but you know, and a similar sort of 447 00:23:06,559 --> 00:23:10,039 top dog category worst Band of the Year twenty twenty three. 448 00:23:10,839 --> 00:23:12,880 I couldn't really think of one, so I just sort of, 449 00:23:13,519 --> 00:23:16,960 for a bit of a laugh, said even sevenfold because 450 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,680 I knew it would be controversial. And when after I 451 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,119 announced it and I said my piece, you said I 452 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,480 thought for sure it was going to be Steel Panther, 453 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:30,920 And I was like, oh, fuck, yeah, absolutely, I could 454 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,240 have ragged on that for ages. 455 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: It could have gone on the rag for that for ages. Yeah, 456 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,599 I've got one definite answer for this. I mean just 457 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,880 to throw you know, my eyes elsewhere. All the times 458 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,960 I've given best new or Improved Band to bands who 459 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,759 have then fallen apart immediately, Like, it's not that, you know, 460 00:23:49,799 --> 00:23:51,680 I couldn't have known these things at the time, so 461 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,160 it's not like I got it wrong. But when I 462 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:55,759 look back at the kind of a Wars history and 463 00:23:55,799 --> 00:23:58,440 I see back like names like Sharp Tooth and then 464 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,759 even like last year CSA Space in like some of 465 00:24:00,759 --> 00:24:02,759 those categories, you do go mad like that those like 466 00:24:02,839 --> 00:24:06,119 immediately did not follow through on what you know, we 467 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,359 were kind of saying it, it would I think generally 468 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,039 all the things like best song of the Year, Band 469 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,079 of the Year, stuff like that. Looking at my history 470 00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:14,640 at least for you know, my taste and where I 471 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,240 was at with them, I think I've got most of 472 00:24:16,279 --> 00:24:18,839 them pretty spot on. Like I don't think I have 473 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,519 had many like flubs. I suppose the one that stands out, 474 00:24:22,519 --> 00:24:24,720 and I mentioned this even on the award show that 475 00:24:24,759 --> 00:24:27,160 we did you know last month, it's the one that 476 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,640 I would change is my twenty twenty three gig of 477 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,319 the year, which was the year that essentially in my 478 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,519 mind it was like a tie between Celtic Frost performing well, 479 00:24:37,559 --> 00:24:39,920 you know, trip to Coom performing a Celtic Frost you 480 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,640 know the eighties theme that when they only doing more 481 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,839 details and to make a ferry on stuff at Bloodstock 482 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,759 and Depeche Mode at twickenenm And like those two they 483 00:24:47,759 --> 00:24:49,759 were both for me like incredibly special shows as you 484 00:24:49,799 --> 00:24:53,799 can imagine from those you know, descriptions, and I couldn't 485 00:24:53,839 --> 00:24:55,359 choose which one to do, and I just went for 486 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,119 the trip to complaining Celtic frosting. But what then happened 487 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,400 is over then following two years, I saw Tryptocon playing 488 00:25:01,799 --> 00:25:07,519 even better shows than those things, And in hindsight, the 489 00:25:07,559 --> 00:25:11,200 depeche Mode at Twickenham show was so special, like that 490 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,200 is like it's the best stadium show I've ever been to, 491 00:25:14,319 --> 00:25:17,160 and it could be that I don't know for how long, 492 00:25:18,039 --> 00:25:20,160 and it was so like there were so many individual 493 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,480 magic moments from that, like you know, two hour whatever 494 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,279 set that they played that live on in my head 495 00:25:25,559 --> 00:25:28,839 that I didn't know what was to come with Tryptocon 496 00:25:29,559 --> 00:25:32,920 and I should like, in hindsight, depeche Mode at twicken 497 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,680 And really deserves that particular award, and Trypticon very much 498 00:25:35,759 --> 00:25:37,920 deserved the following two like Gig of the Year things 499 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,400 that I bestowed upon them. But that's the one where 500 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,160 I'm like, yeah, it should have been the depeche Mode 501 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,799 show for sure. Next question comes from David Brady, who 502 00:25:46,839 --> 00:25:49,240 asks if any of you could introduce a band you 503 00:25:49,279 --> 00:25:51,319 have gotten into in the last five years to your 504 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,279 younger self just starting on the heavy music road, who 505 00:25:54,279 --> 00:25:57,240 would it be and why. First time I read this question, 506 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,440 I was thinking about this and I didn't register within 507 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,319 the last five years bit so I was thinking just 508 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:07,319 bands who I love, really love, who I could maybe 509 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,279 give to myself at a slightly earliest stage, and I 510 00:26:09,319 --> 00:26:12,880 got to them and like, how would that change my 511 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,880 music stage? That these aren't bands who I've gotten into 512 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,759 with the last five years. But the thing for me, 513 00:26:17,839 --> 00:26:20,240 like when I was you know, like hardcore getting into 514 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,559 like becoming you know, like heavy music being my life. 515 00:26:22,599 --> 00:26:25,240 Basically when I was like you know, between like twelve 516 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,839 and fourteen, the thing that like came to me most 517 00:26:28,839 --> 00:26:31,960 swiftly was the metal side, right, So, like I loved 518 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,559 you know, Iron Maiden and Metallica and Megadeath and all 519 00:26:34,599 --> 00:26:37,759 of this stuff. The stuff that is like this really 520 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,839 integral part of my musical identity. I suppose that took 521 00:26:42,039 --> 00:26:44,920 me longer to you know, really come to terms with 522 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:46,960 an explore is more of like the kind of goth 523 00:26:47,039 --> 00:26:49,759 side of things. So I mean I've just mentioned them. 524 00:26:49,759 --> 00:26:52,000 I would say, like band, there's a few bands who 525 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,920 I got into, like hard got into when I was 526 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,279 maybe around like sort of like turning like twenty ish 527 00:26:56,559 --> 00:26:59,160 that if I could give myself to them when I 528 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,519 was like thirteen, I would imagine they would be an 529 00:27:01,559 --> 00:27:04,920 even more like part of my DNA than they are now. 530 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,680 So bands like depeche Mode and The Cure are two 531 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,880 that really jump out that again, like hardcore got into 532 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,440 them a little bit, you know, a few years on 533 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,559 from when I was first really like, you know, my 534 00:27:15,839 --> 00:27:19,279 most formative years. I suppose Similarly, like if I had 535 00:27:19,319 --> 00:27:23,240 gotten into AFI when I was like fourteen rather than 536 00:27:23,319 --> 00:27:25,480 you know a few years after that, I would probably 537 00:27:25,519 --> 00:27:29,079 be even more insufferable about them than I even am today. Similarly, 538 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,400 I think with like Nine Inch Nails past the singles, 539 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,599 like if I'd become like a Nine Inch Nails album's 540 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,480 guy when I was like thirteen fourteen, I would imagine 541 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,759 they would be even more integral than they already are. 542 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,319 I have got you know, I thought some other answers 543 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,599 based on what the question actually says, But Mark, have 544 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:45,559 you got responses? 545 00:27:45,599 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 2: First of all, no, yeah, I the last five years 546 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,160 thing is tricky for me. So I'm sort of like 547 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,759 might involve some time travel, so like picking an album 548 00:27:56,799 --> 00:27:59,640 from twenty twenty one or whatever to give my younger self. 549 00:28:00,279 --> 00:28:04,200 One thing. I really I really struggled getting into like 550 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,359 extreme metal. I was so resistant to black metal for 551 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:11,480 so long, and I just I look back at young 552 00:28:11,559 --> 00:28:16,559 Mark and the one like the first properly heavy band 553 00:28:16,599 --> 00:28:21,799 I ever liked was Children Abodem because I came into 554 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,559 heavy metal through loving hair metal and I've always been 555 00:28:25,599 --> 00:28:30,319 obsessed with guitar solos, so Children Abodem was very like 556 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,440 painless for me getting into that. So I'd love to 557 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:39,119 show that guy Moonlight Sorcery and don't read Hell. 558 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 559 00:28:39,519 --> 00:28:42,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, like that'd be a more sort of like an 560 00:28:42,839 --> 00:28:47,200 avenue into extreme metal earlier than it did for me. 561 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:54,000 Maybe Rotten Christ or something. I feel like something you know, yeah, yeah. 562 00:28:54,039 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: Christ, you know circa like you know, the early twenty 563 00:28:56,559 --> 00:28:58,759 ten stuff. If you'd heard it at the time and 564 00:28:58,759 --> 00:29:00,480 being like, oh, these are heavy metal songs, like I 565 00:29:00,519 --> 00:29:02,440 can pump my fist to this, that would have worked. 566 00:29:03,359 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. There's things that like maybe wouldn't have helped my journey, 567 00:29:08,079 --> 00:29:11,240 you know, faster or whatever, but things that maybe would 568 00:29:11,319 --> 00:29:15,000 maybe a little bit cooler, Like if I heard Jess 569 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,200 and the Ancient Ones at the time, maybe I would 570 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:22,480 have been less, you know, weird guy, like I would 571 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,359 have had slightly cooler taste. And I can't imagine myself 572 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,440 really liking Jess and the Ancient Ones back then somewlar 573 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,119 to like I'd love I wish I could go back 574 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:37,039 in time to like, I don't know, fourteen fifteen year 575 00:29:37,039 --> 00:29:43,799 old Mark and gift him Astronoid like I adore them now, 576 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,240 but especially the last, like the first and the fourth 577 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:53,359 Astronoid records. That's it. That's my favorite band when I'm fifteen. 578 00:29:53,559 --> 00:29:55,599 You know, it's all the stuff I love and it's 579 00:29:55,599 --> 00:30:00,759 so sugary and addictive, and I don't know if it 580 00:30:00,759 --> 00:30:02,599 would have been a gateway to other things, but I 581 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,920 just like, as a gift to myself, not yourself out 582 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:07,359 on these records, you. 583 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: Know, yeah, because as simply as what you were saying about, 584 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,119 like you know, if if at the time you'd registered 585 00:30:13,119 --> 00:30:14,799 stuff like the Devil's Blood and just in the ancient 586 00:30:14,839 --> 00:30:17,240 ones kind of happening. There's a couple of bands from 587 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,240 around the era that like I should have gone harder 588 00:30:20,319 --> 00:30:23,920 on earlier, the example being like in Solitude, right, because 589 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,720 there's a few things that were happening that I feel like, 590 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,559 I like hard got into them at the time that 591 00:30:30,559 --> 00:30:33,559 they were basically disappearing. You know. It's like, I would 592 00:30:33,759 --> 00:30:35,319 you know, hard get into these kind of things and 593 00:30:35,359 --> 00:30:37,559 then they'd be breaking up if I'd gotten into on Solitude, 594 00:30:37,599 --> 00:30:40,240 Like even like like an album earlier and really like 595 00:30:40,599 --> 00:30:42,279 paid the attention to them, because it's one of the 596 00:30:42,279 --> 00:30:43,799 things where like, you know, Sister came out in twenty 597 00:30:43,799 --> 00:30:45,359 thirteen and then not long as like they broke up 598 00:30:45,359 --> 00:30:47,599 and sort of around you know, twenty fifteen ish or whatever, 599 00:30:47,599 --> 00:30:49,119 I was like, oh my god, this is a masterpiece. 600 00:30:49,359 --> 00:30:51,319 What the hell? Yeah, And I look back and I'm like, 601 00:30:51,359 --> 00:30:54,000 I missed this, you know, phenomenon happening by like just 602 00:30:54,279 --> 00:30:56,079 a year or two. You know, it's like I should 603 00:30:56,079 --> 00:30:59,160 have gone harder, slightly earlier. The time travel thing that 604 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,799 you're talking about, I think really good picks that you've 605 00:31:00,799 --> 00:31:02,839 gone there in terms of taking albums from like now 606 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,880 basically and give them to your younger self. I wasn't 607 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,079 thinking about that because I was thinking, it has to 608 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,119 be something that's you know, bands I've gotten into with 609 00:31:09,119 --> 00:31:12,039 in the last five years or so, yeah, but have 610 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:13,839 to have kind of been around at the time where 611 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,160 I could have gotten into them at you know, an 612 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,160 earlier age, and there's not that many of them because 613 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,640 most of the really big important bands. Again, my best 614 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:24,240 answer to this were stuff like The Cure or whatever, 615 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,319 which I got into, like not necessarily at the beginning 616 00:31:26,319 --> 00:31:29,319 of my teenage years, but like at the end of them, 617 00:31:29,599 --> 00:31:31,200 I guess, you know, maybe some of like the classic 618 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,119 hardcore stuff in the last few years that I've liked, 619 00:31:33,319 --> 00:31:35,279 stuff like carry On or whatever. It's like that would 620 00:31:35,279 --> 00:31:36,960 have been cool to have when I was like fourteen. 621 00:31:37,519 --> 00:31:39,680 And the answer I came to there is maybe Coxbarrough, 622 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,960 like maybe I would try and then because that could 623 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,519 also then lead me onto like you know, battle ruins 624 00:31:44,519 --> 00:31:45,839 and these other things that I've also kind of become 625 00:31:45,839 --> 00:31:47,759 obsessed with. Like if I tried to jump start myself 626 00:31:47,759 --> 00:31:50,319 on the OI side of things a little bit earlier 627 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,759 in my development, maybe I would be even more you 628 00:31:52,799 --> 00:31:55,440 know again kind of immersed in that world then I, 629 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,200 you know, I want to be, So I think that's 630 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,839 an all right answer. Jack Theory asks any examples of 631 00:32:01,839 --> 00:32:04,000 a band you've always been aware of dropping an album 632 00:32:04,079 --> 00:32:06,640 very late in their career that finally makes some click 633 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,480 for you. An example for me is the record The 634 00:32:08,519 --> 00:32:11,640 Acacia Strain dropped last year. I'd always respected them, but 635 00:32:11,799 --> 00:32:17,839 never counted them amongst my most favorite exciting bands until now. Yeah. Again, 636 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,039 there's a certain I'll try to discount sort of ageing 637 00:32:21,119 --> 00:32:24,559 that there's me like hearing of bands on random late 638 00:32:24,599 --> 00:32:26,759 albums for the first time, like I got I got 639 00:32:26,759 --> 00:32:29,559 into the in the mid twenty tens. I got into 640 00:32:29,559 --> 00:32:31,799 bands like on the Earth Crisis or Integrity or whatever, 641 00:32:32,039 --> 00:32:33,680 just based on like the albums. It was like the 642 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:35,519 first time I'd heard of them. You know. I guess 643 00:32:35,519 --> 00:32:38,359 this question is again, bands who you just like, you know, 644 00:32:38,839 --> 00:32:41,440 were I don't know if resistant is too strong a word, 645 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,200 but you know, bands that you weren't necessarily hard into 646 00:32:43,359 --> 00:32:45,440 who suddenly put an album where you go, oh, this 647 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:45,880 is the one. 648 00:32:46,279 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I I have a track record of like hearing 649 00:32:51,079 --> 00:32:51,599 every album. 650 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: You've got more answer for this than me, I think. 651 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, the big one is the Black Dahlia Murder. Who Yeah, 652 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,519 that was it. Yeah, not that I disliked them. I 653 00:33:03,599 --> 00:33:06,480 was just like, oh, yeah, they're fine whatever. I heard 654 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,079 every album from Ever Black onwards because I was friends 655 00:33:10,119 --> 00:33:12,799 with you, so I had to hear them, and I 656 00:33:12,799 --> 00:33:16,480 don't know what it is verminous in twenty twenty, I 657 00:33:16,519 --> 00:33:18,440 heard that one. Then suddenly I was like, oh yeah, 658 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,799 the oh yeah, the Black dilar Murder are great. Yeah, 659 00:33:20,839 --> 00:33:24,039 I get it now, Like when I go back to 660 00:33:24,079 --> 00:33:26,680 that album, it's not one of my favorite Black Dalio Records. 661 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,599 I don't know what it was that I just like, 662 00:33:30,759 --> 00:33:33,599 I don't know, I have lockdown brain maybe and finally 663 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:34,200 it clicked. 664 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,799 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, well, sometimes you yourself just are you know, 665 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,559 you have developed to a point where you something arrives 666 00:33:39,599 --> 00:33:41,359 and it's not It doesn't really matter if it's now 667 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,920 the band's like, you know, signature album or not. It's 668 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,759 just you have arrived at the point where they are 669 00:33:46,799 --> 00:33:49,759 going to to click for you. I don't have like 670 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,599 as definitive an answer in terms of like exactly the 671 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:57,119 you know, striculations of the question here, but uh, Weezer's 672 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,519 White Album was a was a big one for me, 673 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,079 and I yes, I'd been kind of aware of Weezer 674 00:34:02,079 --> 00:34:04,319 for like a couple of years by that point, because, 675 00:34:04,359 --> 00:34:07,720 like I said, you know on the previous question, the 676 00:34:07,759 --> 00:34:09,400 first thing that I really got hard into when I 677 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,480 was like thirteen was you know, the more the metal 678 00:34:11,559 --> 00:34:14,760 side a band like Wesa were not you know, immediately 679 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,239 in the queue for me, I remember when you know 680 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:18,960 everything will be all right in the end came out 681 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,159 in twenty fourteen. That's when I started to kind of 682 00:34:21,199 --> 00:34:24,119 become aware of Weezer, and like I heard a couple 683 00:34:24,119 --> 00:34:26,119 of tracks from that and stuff, but maybe my again, 684 00:34:26,119 --> 00:34:28,599 my teenage brain had not quite separated them from Whetas 685 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,159 or whatever at that point. Yeah. But then when the 686 00:34:31,159 --> 00:34:33,800 White album came out, I was like, Okay, I'm absolutely 687 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:35,599 in right, because how could you not be.
