0:00 Hi, you have unto censumuble for see wow for you young. Wake up America. It's time for the Adventures of Pipeman on W four C why dot Com West Pompeas is number one internet radio station. Here's your host, the Pipe Man. I trumble you to my side and you do the same hostin he will Survive.

0:40 Today, don't walk a shame. We bush and we pulled. To thousands left in sadas and sweet. So I'm not in. Coursier show. This is the Pipe Man here on the Adventures pipe Man W four C Y Radio. And I'm very excited about our next guest because they have some killer music and that means the game is over. So let's welcome to the show everywhere. How are you? What up? Like? Man, what's going on? Thanks so much for having us man, Thanks Man. Yeah, we thought we were having a party on Google Meet, but here we are.

1:25 We're showing our age. We can't figure shit. Out, Aline, I know, right, you know it's tough to be a musician nowadays because you gotta know how to do a bunch of other stuff besides being a musician. All right, that's true, yeah, dude, And they all make it hard. Man, like, if you want to go post one thing on like Instagram, something that should take you like three minutes to do it across all channels ends up taking a twenty. You're like, dude, too old for this. I know. It used to be easier. They used to have like Hoot's Sweet, where you could send everything to one place, and they're they all decided, Nah, we don't want you guys doing that. You need to make a different type of post for every single of the two million social media platforms.

2:11 Yeah, you can't have the same amount of characters, or the photos don't fit the same way, so you've got to reform around them to it from landscape to portrait. You end up you're like working on making a post for an hour. It's so stupid, right. All the handles are different from channel to channel. If you want to tag people so you can use audio so you can't, can use multiple pictures so you can't. It's just stadic. Yeah, I hate having to make our posts. Yeah, you guys gotta lucky you don't do shit well. You know. It definitely leads a lot better in the old days, where you just stapled flyers to telephone poles and traded tapes.

2:51 Yeah, yeah, I have press. I have like somewhere in storage. I do have the original from the tape trading demo tape for Metallica. You can't really tell what it says at all, you know, it was like probably taped over like fifty one hundred times or something like that, so it just sounds like a bunch of noise. But that noise was exciting back then. Yeah, that's crazy. So who were your guys influences growing up?

3:34 Who wants to go first? I guess we're going going a loop. Yeah, I mean we I guess we all listen to a pretty wide variety of stuff, but when it comes to the band, the main influences would be from like the early two thousands era where you had Deftones, like old school Incubus, Corn, Slip Knot, like all that kind of stuff is what we really kind of build our foundation around. We've grown as musicians. We listen to all sorts of stuff, but I think at the core it's kind of like the new metal kind of music. I like how you said you grew as musicians, because you know, especially when you have these hardcore fans from when you were like in the beginning they all want you to stay like a garage band that doesn't know what you're doing.

4:27 Yeah. Right, it's like you as an artist, I mean, you want to get better. You don't want to play to write the same song over and over again. You should be getting better at your craft. And then you got those hardcore fans that are like, no, don't you're much better when you didn't know what you were doing. Yeah, it is true, true, there's a lot of I mean I'm kind of like that too though, Like with my favorite bands me to I kind of want to hear like the style that I want from that band. But then but then the more you listen to like newer stuff, the more it grows on you. So it's kind of like at the beginning, man, he really deviated from their sound. But if you go back, you spend a little bit more time with it, and you're like, oh shit, okaya feeling.

5:19 Yeah, sometimes you just got to give us some time and like really listen to it instead of just basing it off your gut feeling, you know. Yeah, absolutely, Yeah. There's been plenty of plenty of albums that have come out recently where I'm like, I don't know, man, like especially one one, A huge one is Bring Me the Horizon. They changed so much, you know, I started out, I started out loving him like just a death metal band, and they changed so much, and every album I'd be like, I don't know, I think they might have went too far with this one, But then I kept listening and then I'd be like, actually this is really good, you know. Right, well, if you listen to Ali and interviews, he says like, why do I want write the same song over and over again?

6:02 Right? Yeah? Well yeah, so I feel like a lot of you know, when we're younger. We we uh really have that base of like being an antenna of like something else. So we you know, we were like a lot of like stuff that like if I get caught in like a writer's block moment or something, I find myself like just waking up like half awake, being like, oh that's it, you know what I mean, And it's I'm like some kind of antenna grabbing it out the ether, and it's I feel like that's what really gives so many people the original, the really original feel that's not like taught, and and that's what we I feel like, that's what we fall in love with people's early stuff.

6:49 But yeah, we. Gotta I mean like getting more polished, you're getting like getting better at your craft. Is yeah, you know, I can see why people like it or hate it. You know. Well you know what else too, Hey, you like that. I forgot to put that up there. My background, so you know, same here, Like I was one of the original like went to the original Metallica shows, and so when they came out with the Black album, me and my twenty five gatekeeper friends were like, fuck them, They're a bunch of posers, sellouts. We're never listening to them again. And you know the fact is, like you said, to your point, give it a little time, we all came around after a while and like, you know, oh this shit is pretty good, you know right.

7:41 Definitely, So I think I. Think definitely the whole poser mentality and like thinking people's like not being able to understand why band would sell out. It's definitely a younger mentality too, because I had it when I was younger, Like when like I don't know, say, slip Knock, when they did their first couple songs that really had like a radio sound and hook, I was like, oh man, you know they sold but now I'm older, and I just like I love. Wait Wait and Bleed was too poppy. Right exactly. It's like that Bleed, It's like that song is so dope, like it's crazy totally, and you.

8:23 Know like it. It is a younger mentality. But I think it's because that younger mentality, not because it just the angst. It's because you're poor, broke anyway, so you don't give a crap about having to pay bills or support. So you can't conceive of a band member that's doing it for a living trying to support themselves, like, oh my god, they have to pay rent. Well, I'll give a shift. They have to pay rent, they should still be fuck meating blow these sandwiches. Man. Yeah yeah, yeah. Once once you have to start like just having all these responsibilities and stuff, you're like, yeah, let's let's make some music. Let's make some money off this music.

9:08 Man might as well, because it's like one of the hardest jobs there is. Most people don't realize, like they think it's all fun and games like it is, especially today, it's it's freaking my hat's offty, it's freaking hard to be a musician nowadays, because like you have to work ten times harder just to make a quarter of the money. Yeah, you gotta. You gotta do it because you love it. Otherwise otherwise it's just ain't worth it. I think some bands don't last too is because they're not doing because they love it. They're doing it to be rock stars, and the rock star happens and then it dies.

9:49 Yeah. They create bands with with just like people that they just like toss together because they're like, I'm just gonna use these people and then get to the next spot and use more people. But and that's why this is, you know, in my opinion, one of the greatest bands that could ever be is because we're all really close. We're all like family. So it's so cool to hear achieve I think, yeah, that's way. Cool because you got being together like pretty much twenty four to seven, Like you have to be a family or else you're going to kill each other. Right, Yeah, we've. Gotten close, We've gone pretty close.

10:30 Yeah, I'm sure. It's inevitable now that Yeah, people are gonna fight, but what really matters is that, like we we bounce back fast, you know what I mean. We're like, dude, I'm sorry I didn't mean that. You know what I mean, Like, yeah, that's cool. Which shows like that you actually care about that person. It's so apparent on stage too, because like as somebody that's in the audience, you can tell if the band. You know, you don't need like a Perry Ferrell moment to tell that people are pissed each other on stage or that they're fun and having a good time and like loving being up there, like you can totally tell mm hmm yep.

11:15 There's nothing to called beer with your boys, can't. So off there you go love it? So, oh, it's. About the new song game over, like tell us the inspiration for it, uh, you know, and everything about it from your perspective as the artist. Yeah, so I'm I'm the vocalist and uh Fidel he's our drummer. But me and him go back and forth kind of working on the lyrics together. He did this one lyrically, so I'll let him take this one. Still, well we still we still like add to each other's stuff though you still put in a lot. Towards Oh yeah yeah, yeah, I said we worked together. As well, right yeah, but yeah, now you led this one pretty um.

12:01 I started this. One, me and Ryan are both, you know, great lyricists and pattern writers, but we like diffuse together and become super sayan that's how we write. I love it. But yes, no this one wash we uh So the premise that I started with was just like kind of like the uh, the the games that we play, whether it be a relationship uh and uh inner conflict, even as just like a society, like uh, just like the power games that we play, Like everything is like this kind of like even in like a single argument, you know, it's like people get to a point where they're not even like trying to figure out what's right anymore.

12:52 They're just playing like a who can win game, you know what I mean? And all these like petty little games that add on so much extra stress and like absolutely like fly our cortisol levels, which is extremely unhealthy for you. So it's like it's just essentially just being like like being like understanding that you can just kind of cut the game out. Yeah, and it's your Your life is going to be so much better. But just like just subtracting those petty little games, you know. And yeah, I don't fully encompassing. I don't understand people that love to live in that like every single day. Yeah you take the oh yeah, that that's what really created it, and like that Reality TV isn't even reality. So it's like it's just drumming people up to to thinking some of this stuff is normal life. And you know, I live here in South Florida, which is probably the world capital of games, okay, you know, and it's like if people would just be real with each other, like it would be a lot happier planet.

14:07 I think. Yeah, well, you know how like people can get different, like different ideas and stuff from lyrics. One idea I had from these lyrics was this kind of goes in hand with what Jacob was saying, but like even when it comes to like governments and stuff they like, and just the way that people are running the world with these power games, like that when there's when there's a war that happens or something, you know, these governments are like killing innocent people over like their ego that they want to be the most powerful. So like it's like, if we could like really concentrate on what the real problems are in life, we'd save ourselves a lot of pain. You know, Like we're just we're always calling ourselves pain by by having the wrong idea of what's important.

14:54 So much pain. Yeah, it's just so much unnecessary pain that that we cause our you know, it's just crazy. So yeah, totally. And it's funny you bring up you bring up the government part of it. It's like, right now, it's the oldest game in the book, divide and conquer, like, and it's like distract, let's distract and you know, you guys can fight about this stuff that we're not really worried about. We just want to distract you. It's super curs So it's so that we don't see their corruption. Right, Let's let's get them fighting so we can you know, take advantage of them and they won't even you know, buyer.

15:36 I think a lot of a lot of what that is too is imposing fear. Once you impose somebody, they absolutely you have complete control over them, no doubt. Right. Yeah, yeah, And I find that that's what's cool about live music because live music, I feel we can escape all that crap. You know, you go to a music festival and everybody's one. You know, there's no division, there's no bullshit. You're just there to have a good time and enjoy great music. Yeah, right, yeah, a lot. Music is definitely an escape from like it's like therapy kind of for me. Writing it is like therapy. Playing it's like therapy. Listening to it's like therapy. Going to see it's like therapy. It's I think that's why humanity is so obsessed with music, because it's just very therapy for us.

16:29 Absolutely. I think it's therapeutic for me the listener and for you the artist for different reasons. Oh yeah, you know, yeah, yeah, there's a there's a there's a disappearing of you know when you're just sitting there standing in the music, and there's a disappearing in the creation of an art. So it's like it's there's, you know, a way to write out of that all that crazy games, you know, all the crazy games we play. Yeah, and plus all the stuff that bothers you. You can just get out in a song instead of worse ways.

17:12 And same for us, like we could get out all our frustrations, anger, depression, whatever it is in a live show or in a song. Like you listen to any song it relates to something and gives you power. Back no mhm, yeah, power get getting punched in the chest by it by like a sound wave instead of punching someone in the face. Totally. For me, that mash pits. That's always it for me. Man, I go in there and let everything out there, and I always say it saves somebody from getting the ass kicked exactly.

17:55 Yeah, I tell, I tell, I tell a lot of people and they're like, you know, older folks, they're like, man, how do you how do you like that that? It's like, well, you gotta go to a live show. You gotta you gotta feel that on your chest. You gotta feel that that blast, that explosion, and it's if you know to, I feel like you have to. You know, that's such a metal, such a live thing. Yeah, that's why a lot of people don't get it. I told I was having this exact discussion with my brother the other day because I brought them to some show. Forget what it was. It wasn't even that heavy, and he's like six years older than me, and he couldn't handle the base and he couldn't handle out loud it was and blah blah blah. And we were talking about the other day. I'm like, Yeah, for me, that's fuel and therapy and that makes me feel great. That pumps my adrenaline up, you know, like the louder the better.

18:57 Yeah, dude, metal soothes me totally. She goes down when I listen to metal. I'm like, it's like a chill pill for me. And a lot of people don't get that. But yeah, I'm also a motivational speaker, and it's like I will blast like Slayer or Slipknot on the way to go do a seminar, to get pumped up to do a seminar. Yeah. Yeah, it definitely works as pump up music too for sure. Yeah. And then in the same token, like if I'm just chilling like or I'm at you know, going for a walk, I blast that stuff. It just like it takes all the stuff away that has me pissed off or upset or heart rate going or any of that stuff.

19:40 Yeah. I used to pull asleep blasting metal in my headphones. When I was a bit younger. I used to have like I'd be laying there in my bed with my headphones, don't listening to the metal music and just falling asleep totally. And I used to my day. I used to say something because I would sit there and i'd have In high school, MTV on with no volume and then like blasting something no matter what it was, and doing my homework and he'd like, how do you do your homework like that? I just do How do you concentrate?

20:22 Right? We lost we lost Kyle for a second. He went into the void. We brought them back from the void. So how do people reach you guys? On socials on the web? Check out the new song, check out everything else. You have tour dates and all that. Yeah, the Central hobbes ever lit music dot Com, that's where you know you can stay up to date with us. But on socials x, Instagram great places to hang out and chat with us. Facebook, book, uh, YouTube, Yeah, pretty much everywhere, like the main ship happens, that's where we're at.

21:09 And if you if you're trying to check it out, check the music out for the first time, I would say hit up spot If you have Spotify, hit up Spotify because that's the one we're trying to boost the streams on the most. Yeah, we want to tickle the Spotify algorithms. You gotta tickle the rhythm, right, you. Gotta hit those million plates so you can get your five cents. Gotta hit that g Spotify. I love it. That should that should be a thing. I think you should start that like a trend of calling it that.

21:50 All right, all right, we're coining it. We're coining it fidelity right there, boom there. It is anything else you guys want to share with the listeners that we haven't covered already that they should know about you guys, or any of your new music. I don't think we mentioned that. Uh A JT from Famous Last Words is on the new single came over, so if that might persuade some extra people to go put their ears on it. So, uh, it's a really good, really good song. But he took it up to the next level too by getting his vocals on there. So yeah, he's he's in the second verse too, so you got to listen a little bit.

22:32 And speaking of it, I think he added you know, a lot for his parts too. That was we were like, we just got it. Wasn't like something that I wrote or Ryan wrote. Yeah, he put his stuff. He put his stuff in there. So he gave me the recap, They gave him the recap on what the song was about. He ran with it, man, he absolutely crushed it. Kill Yeah, he killed it. It sounds sounds disgusting, so give it a lesson, and then you know, we got a lot more common. We're going to the studio in a couple of weeks to record three more tracks. We have two recorded ready to go. We're gonna be releasing a lot of music to follow on socials. Wherever you're listening to music, whether it's Spotify or Amazon or you know iTunes, whatever, follow us and get ready for more to come.
