Ed Kuepper and Mudhoney’s Mark Arm from The Saints ’73-’78 discuss the new (I’m) Stranded box set, how they’d never ever met in person (at the time we recorded this), why Mark was asked to sing in the Saints and what the band has meant to him, how the Saints got started and their early interest in Elvis, Beatles, and the Rolling Stones, why AC/DC and their success in Australia didn’t much motivate the Saints, how Mark first heard the Saints and whether or not they’re unheralded, why Ed and Mark’s music strikes a good balance between aggression and humour, what’s special about this box set, an Ed and Jim White collaboration, what’s next for the Saints and Mudhoney, tour dates, other future plans, and much more.

Ep. #883: Steven Hyden

EVERY OTHER KREATIVE KONTROL EPISODE IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO MONTHLY $6 USD PATREON SUPPORTERS. Enjoy this excerpt and please subscribe now via this link to hear this full episode. Thanks!

Steven Hyden discusses his excellent new book, There Was Nothing You Could Do: Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Born in the U.S.A.’ and the End of the Heartland, the state of music and cultural criticism, how film critics have long had more cachet than music critics, the various and confusing ambiguities in the work and life of an American like Bruce Springsteen, how the Boss rejected his most successful album and got lost in the 1990s just as Nirvana were rejecting their own most successful album, why Springsteen’s narrative voice became more inward, why he and America were never the same after Born in the U.S.A., a fascinating alternate history of Bruce events, Steven’s tour dates, other future plans, and much more.
