Vinyl & Vision

In my recent conversation with Colin Dawson of @haunted_horses I really enjoyed Colin’s response to what he pulled away from Nico’s Desertshore. I think it’s completely accurate when you consider what Haunted Horses sounds like. #influentialalbums #essentialrecords #vinylrecords #podcast #noiserock #interview #colindawson #hauntedhorses #dweller #threeoneg #nico #desertshore #avantegarde @daisyheroin @threeoneg

John Van Atta and Melvin Monroe, the two halves of @the_triceratops met as late teens working at @cbgbofficial and considering starting a @refused cover band, only to reacquaint years later and finally start working on music together. Only one small portion of a great talk I had getting to know this great new band. Plus, they’re coming to Rhode Island in March! Stay tuned! #thetriceratops #learningcurverecords #refused #theshapeofpunktocome #influentialalbums #essentialrecords #vinylrecords

@mkhrnc joined a while back to discuss @pjharveyofficial ‘s latest album, I Inside The Old Year Dying. I thought this was a pretty great fluid talk. What I like best about this talk was how I kept comparing Mike’s band Town of Lake’s new album, Lilac, to Pj and her’s. Great guy and great artist pushing himself constantly.

Here’s a brief clip of my conversation with @djangofish of @theoldceremonyofficial . Listening back to this episode, I noticed it played very much like a masterclass on #songwriting . So many valuable tips and disciplines. This is just one short example of one of the insights Django was able to share with me. Is it any surprise he’s a great songwriter?

About a month ago I had @mttmrtnz of @commonwounds join me to speak about their new album, which is out now, and @dljband ‘s #yankcrime . Here’s Matt on how he found Drive Like Jehu and its lasting impact on him. #influentialalbums #essentialrecords #vinylrecords #punkrock #noiserock #drivelikejehu #commonwounds #allnightblood @thechainworld

Here’s the follow up for those who were concerned. Thanks to everyone who reached out. On the mend.

Here’s a brief clip of my conversation with Laura Larson of @ssscrunchiesss on her experience working with the now late Steve Albini. Their new album, Colossal, is amazing! You should pick it up from @learningcurverecords . It was very hard to choose one minute of this conversation to clip out because our talk was full of great moments speaking about the Minneapolis music scene, #feminism @theebikinikill #huggybear , great closing songs, the problem with media and this was a very candid one too. Really shot from the hip with a good portion of this one.
