What band did you discover in 2021 (can be a brand new band or an older band) that had an impact on your life? What made them significant?
Keith (bass): I knew the name for years but finally checked out Swans this year and have really been into it. They demand patient listening.
Nick (guitar): I really got into Blood Incantation. Their branding is super sick and I think it took me a few times of seeing their artwork before I really decided to dive into it.
How will you remember 2021? (In terms of music)
Nick (guitar): I think 2021 was really a frenzy to get all my covid quarantine projects/compositions/films actually on the ground and running.
What can we look forward to from you in 2022?
Keith (bass): Some new music videos and potentially starting work on first full-length.
What records are you looking forward to most in 2022?
Keith (bass): Really looking forward to the upcoming Chat Pile album.
What went through your head the first time you played live in 2021 after the delay? (If you haven’t -- what do you anticipate when you hit that point?)
Keith (bass): I threw up several times from the anxiety but once on stage felt right at home again.
Nick (guitar): "Wow, it's much easier playing live if you haven't been drinking."
