Jim Ghedi - Stone Club Walks and Talks
Q: How did Wasteland come together, and what changes did live performance bring to the project?
He explains a trilogy-like progression from previous albums, the shift to heavier drums, tuning down the guitar, and letting studio experimentation and personal life shifts push the sound further out.
Rhys Mwyn - Stone Club Walks and Talks
Q: Not just the setting up of the label, what came before that, what motivated you?
Rhys talks about early punk/post-punk roots in Wales, the DIY ethos, and how internal drive and the local scene propelled him before forming a label.
Rhys Mwyn - Stone Club Walks and Talks
Q: And where are you in this exact moment in time, Rhys?
Rhys describes his location in Caernarfon, Wales, and gives a vivid scene of the landscape and the outcrop behind his house, grounding the conversation in place.
Lally MacBeth - Stone Club Walks and Talks
Q: What is it especially about them that draws you, do you think?
Lally explains it's a combination of the visual aspect and a sense of nostalgia, acknowledging the darker elements of folk customs as well.
Lally MacBeth - Stone Club Walks and Talks
