Brian Case discusses the new FACS album Wish Defense, when we met in Edmonton, St. Louis musical mentors, seeing Fred Armisen’s band Trenchmouth, loving underground Chicago rock music and key British post-punk bands, a shared adoration for Hoover, exploring duality via Naomi Klein, why FACS recorded Wish Defense with Steve Albini, his perspective on Steve’s demeanour and behaviour during what was sadly his final session, how they and Electrical Audio colleagues dealt with Steve’s sudden death by honouring and finishing the work he’d started, FACS tour dates, other future plans, and much more.

Post date April 25, 2024

Ben Chasny discusses the lovely new Six Organs of Admittance album, Time is Glass, his return to northern California after many years living throughout the United States, the politically charged conversation we had when Ranga was on the show and made some incorrect 2016 U.S. presidential election predictions, getting himself a dog and reading about demon familiars, living in the moment and spiritual practices, unreliable narrators, shifting pronouns, and songs that contain multitudes, a Simpsons easter egg, touring again, other future plans, and much more.
