Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S5-EP8 Santa Paul and the gift of Hamish
Q: What was it like stepping into the shoes of a guitarist who had just left the band's original lineup?
The guest describes joining My Dying Bride as a blend of curiosity and respect, adapting quickly, and learning to balance their own voice with the established sound, including experiences playing with and replacing key members.
S5-EP13 Sin For A Halo with Connor
Q: How does Mari Hamada's music fit into the NWOTHM or broader metal landscape?
The hosts note the 80s production, cross-cultural appeal, and Japanese reverence for Hamada, with emphasis on her blending of heavy guitar with pop-rock sensibilities and language choices in lyrics.
S5-EP13 Sin For A Halo with Connor
Q: What three albums did we listen to for this discussion, and why were they chosen?
Connor picked Lunatic Dog by Mari Hamada, Endless Skies by Ashbury, and Century, Sign Of The Storm by Century because they stood out to him in a NWOTHM context, with focus on era- and scene-defining characteristics.
S3-EP12 White Crone
Q: How do you approach performing on stage versus when you’re playing an instrument and singing?
There's a big difference, especially when in a blues band where I lead and must multitask, while metal performance is more about energy and cardio.
S3-EP12 White Crone
Q: What was the first decision that pushed you towards moving into a metal direction?
It was triggered by listening to the band Ghost and realizing I could write whatever I wanted.
