1) 1)Your sound
is somewhere between two existing ends of genres: perhaps garage/lo-fi and
shoegaze. Is there a name for this new sound you’ve created? Might I suggest
sho-fi?
2) 2) What is
the new diet exactly? Because it seems like everyone who has this great diet
idea (Atkins) eventually dies from it.
3) 3) I really like my doctor, but
sometimes I have to see what I like to call a junior doctor (or Jr Dr) and he
asked me once if I had a diet. Isn’t what you eat automatically your diet, thus
my diet consists of coffee, water, pasta, cereal and pizza. Doesn’t that seem
like a bad question for a Jr Dr to ask? It’s like asking me if I’m alive, you
know.
4) 3) You have
a split cassette on Already Dead, as well as your newest album is on cassette
but sold out. Do you agree with me that cassettes are the optimal form of
recorded musical playback?
5) 4) Also,
would you ever have Already Dead do a re-release for “Common Cold” on
cassette?
6) 5) If the
common cold is so common, why is there no cure for it?
7) 6) How is
music in the city that C.M. Punk built?
8) 7) Final
thoughts, shout outs, etc…??
1) Why-Fi? Over our 10 year existence
we never sat down and actually talked about what our sound was going to be;
When we get together in the moldy sound quarters, there's that first chord
that's strummed and a heart beat is put behind it. Next thing we know we're
riding on a drunk emotional train rant. It's certainly organic; you can't think
some of this bullshit up, but I think it's accessible to most ears for that
reason. No password required to access our signal. In conclusion we don't know
why we sound the way we do, and maybe it's best for other ears determine that
for us because it's likely to keep morphing into a new FI. new-fi-et.
2)
We were pegged "NEW DIET" by an unemployed master POP producer named Brian
Broscoe, and these were his ideas exactly... "KILL PEOPLE WITH SYNTHETICS,AND
MAKE LOTS OF MONEY DOING IT HAHUHAHAHAUHA!!". When we discovered he was up to
no good; it was too late to change our name! We couldn't ditch the hard core
fan base we worked so hard for; it's not easy making 10 fans man. The new NEW
DIET should be much more organic.
3) That's malpractice, I would sue. If I may
act as your JR JR DR I would ask if your current diet working? And if you tell
me you haven't shit in days... Well, I would prescribe you 1200mg of S.O.L. butt
should be just fine.
4/5) We have a split 7' record out on Already
Dead Tapes, and the sold out Common Cold tape out on Manic Static. Our plan is
to re-release Common Cold ourselves on Tape with a compilation of demos and epic
jams from Patty Sue Kelley's basement. We had the best time down there drinking
2 dollar bottles of wine and just going for it!
I agree, cassettes are warm and warbly. Cassettes force you to listen to an
album, the way it should be. It's convenient to pick through songs on your
Itunes player, but you might miss out on what an album is trying to convey that
way. It's all preference, but I personally get satisfaction to hear a body of
work.
We have an LP coming out
on Already Dead Tapes & Records in 2013. Format is undecided, but wouldn't
it be cool to have a tape and record?
6)
There are many strands of the virus making it hard to pin point, but when the
religious outlets stop instilling fear into men, woman, and children we'll have
progress.
7) C.M.PUNK has a message for all of us. The
Chicago music scene is sprouting the varieties of MINES, paper mice, animal
city, health and beauty. husband material, the funs, house of normandie, Maren
Celest ect... We can go all day, but I hope people take ownership of their city
and discover something they like to hear, because it's all here for them to
have. We don't have to let major media outlets tell us whats good when there's
something really amazing in your backyard, find your cure.
8) Why does that asshole Zach Braff have a
kickstarter? Please Check out Already Dead Tapes & Records and look out for
our LP. Thanks! This was fun!
