Speaker 1 (00:01):
So seven nine kbp I and yes, we've been talking
about it on the phone. Maria Brinking. God, man, this
is one of my favorite calls to make. Anytime you're
headed town. I'm like, yeah, get to see one in
Saley Coach Show. And just you know, Maria, we've been
friends for a long time, and god, I love it
when you come to town and your shows are so unique,
so different, such an experience, and I know for you
(00:24):
this is this is a big one. This is a
special one.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Oh, it really is. I mean, you're my favorite. I've
been saying it all these years, and honestly, playing there
is hands down our favorite. I mean, and we have
a few special places in the country. You know, your
hometown's always one of them, but you guys have always
stuck out to us as this like special place that
we love coming there so much. And every time I
come there, we get excited and we know like, oh,
(00:49):
it's gonna.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Be yeah, Mission Ballroom, you guys, man is coming up.
This is gonna be one of them shows. Mission ballrooms
are best venue for sound, for you know, for seeing.
It's one of our better venues by a long shot.
So we're super stoked about that. Uh, just just to
be able to see you again on you know this
particular album. Man, I don't know if you guys have
(01:11):
been listening to it, God Mode Rips. You should go
download it. You should go get it. You should get
copies of it. Just drop them off as gifts to me. Man,
you take us through such a walk on this album,
such an experience. Share a little bit about it in
your perspective. I know there's a few songs. You just
released a video for Sanctified Me, which is awesome. I
(01:32):
know that came just a few days back, so tell
me how how that came about a little bit. As
I know your influence on these videos is is vast,
So tell me how that experience was that really fire? Is?
Are you walking on fire there? When I watched this videos, like,
is that special effects? How'd you do all this?
Speaker 2 (01:50):
It's all kinds of mystical magic.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
It's a wild looking video, man, as cool as hell.
It looks it's haunted, but yet you know enticing, and
you know it's just it's just boldly you in every
form of fashion, which I just love because I know
you're the architect of it. So tell me a little
bit about the making of that video.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Yeah, I mean that was this.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
We worked with this guy Gensing, and he did a
lot of amazing videos recently, and so we did our
first video of this album, the Purge, with him, and
we were blown away by our yeah, our creating that
we did together. So we wanted so this second video
was kind of like a prequel video to the Purge video,
(02:38):
and and so they were all kind of connected. And
the cool thing and the beautiful thing about working with
Gensing is like you can dream up anything. Where I've
always kind of directed my own videos and just kind
of did it all kind of by myself with my
friend Robert Clay, who he helped me a lot with
getting the perfect shots and doing all these special things.
(02:59):
And but I've never been able to work with someone
where I'm like, exactly what you just said, Like I
want to be, you know, on fire on a stake
and then walk out of the fire. I didn't know,
you know, I never had the capabilities to bring that
to life. So to work with him and have these
you know, to think, like anything that I can dream up,
he can help us bring to life. It's a special
(03:20):
thing and it's exciting and it keeps me kind of
inspired for like wanting to do the next creative thing
and being able to bring the music. You know, there
are all such different elements. You start in the studio
with just the songs and you're just closing your eyes
and you're like dreaming with it, and it becomes its
own special things just by listening. And then it's so
(03:43):
cool to be able to then bring it to life
and all these different ways, you know, visually and at
the show and the music video and all the different
ways that you get. You know, you can kind of
like bring it all to life and let it don't
come to be. So I love all of the different
parts of it. I'm super passionate and involved with all
the different things because they all just kind of mean
(04:05):
a lot lot to me. Well, it says I'm crazy
and I never stop.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Waiting, you know what. I believe it because there is
a certain there's a certain feeling, emotion and connection when
you watch your videos. Man, there it's wild because you're
always anticipating what's coming next and what the next scene
is gonna be, or how you know you had to
transform from one scene to the other, and you know,
with with the people around you in the videos. Just
(04:31):
the way you get absorbed into it. It really does
take you for a ride. I absolutely love it door it.
I'm like, that is just wicked. This whole album I
think is God. I think it's Peaks volumes. It really
is kind of amazing to listen to the whole thing
and listen to you know, the different something. I love what
you did with with Spencer, that Damnage track on it.
(04:53):
Another good Yeah, e snight kill is opening up for you.
Are you going to do that Damnas track with Spencer
on stage during and your setters? Are you coming out?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
We haven't done it. I mean he he's like doing
a bunch of Metallica shows and and he's doing all
of arm shows and I think it's kind of too
much on his voice to just be able to do
it over and over because I was like, let's do it,
let's do it every night. But he did say that
he would do a few of them, like maybe we
could do like a special thing. But we'll see, maybe
(05:25):
we'll be able to bring it to life. Who knows.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Yeah, it's a great track and so many of them,
you know, tell us a little bit about how you
go about, you know, just creating something new that for
us is that that ride that you know, we all appreciate.
I think all your music in the past, we've all
grown with it. We've all experienced, you know, certain you know,
(05:48):
sort of adventures you put us on when you go
through videos, the music, the album especially who just listen
to it. So tell us a little bit about god
Mode and what's so unique compared to other albums in
the past for you when you created it and wrote it.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
I mean, they're all unique.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
You know, they all go so personally and kind of
hand in hand with like where we are in our
life and kind of like what's going on, and you know,
even the emotions that we're going through and where we
are in life. So I think they're all kind of
different and unique. But and I always strive to keep
things kind of surprising myself, Like I don't want to
(06:24):
do the same thing over and over, and as an artist,
you want to well, you want to keep doing things.
And that's what makes me feel passionate in life and
like makes me feel live. Like everybody's got their thing
as people have cars are architects, you know, or actors
like it. But you know, you're so blessed if people
can find some people just being a stay home mother,
(06:47):
you know, and but it gives them joy, it gives
them purpose and fulfillment and whoever that is and whatever
that is, you know it is when you do it,
you just feel so, you know, music for me so
special in creating art and it's like such a part
of my school and I work on it so personally
and make it all perfect.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
How long we're talking about, Maria brink from in this moment.
How long of your life has been spent pursuing that passion?
When was the first time you actually put pin on
a paper and thought, wow, I wonder if I could
write a song? Or what's the first time you attempted
this sing? What? What made it? That first step in
(07:31):
that path? What? What was that?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
You know, it's been since I was a little girl
that I loves to be it is and even I
used to live in this little cute trailer park and we.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
I grew up in a trailer park too, you.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Did, Yeah, I grew up in like trailer park from
like the project, Like you know, my mommy didn't have
a lot of money motel rooms, but we live in
this one cute little trailer park. I do remember, And
I would put on these little plays for like Annie
or like Grease Lightning, like the little thing that I love.
And I would take all the kids and give them
(08:07):
like little roles like from the movie, and we'd all
have our singing parts, and I was passionate. We would
even it was horrible we did this now that I
look back at it, because I care about my landscaping.
But we'd take people's flowers and then when the parents
would come, we'd give each one a flower. I was
thinking it serious at five years old. Yeah, and my mom,
(08:33):
you know, I've said it before, but she as the
little girl, would go to the long seats to her
favorite concerts, and I was seeing Tina Turner, chocolate fibers
all together.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
He Tina Turner, Stevie Dick, see all these people that
Joan Jet And I was like seeing these powerful women
on the stage and see my mama, who loved them
so much. She's sell up dancing with her hands over
her heads.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
And I think, I really believe that's what got me
up there.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
What a cool what a cool line, you know, to
kind of drop because you're so inspired seeing your mom
happy and how passionate she was about it probably kind
of lit that fuse in you, like, hey, I can
be passive about too, and you know what a what
a pursuit? How cool is that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
It was cute and I was always love singing, but
I didn't believe still, I was, you know, in my
probably i'd stay in my twenties. Early twenties is when
I started really believing. Like I started, I started being
in a band in eighteen, but I think it was
just like, you know, you're dreaming, but you don't really think, right,
(09:40):
I'm going to like pick this as my life and
my career and whatnot. You know, But that was probably
like early twenties where I was like, I think I'm
going to really really do this for real, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Yeah, And looking now, man, it's just awesome. Yeah, so
many albums I could probably kind of on my phone.
I think I got more albums from you downloaded on
my phone than anybody body else. It is amazing. It
is still it's just wild to see this ride and
how your band has been you know, just one single
band for so long. You've been with these guys for
(10:10):
so many years. You've experienced so many things, and you
can share that on stage with just an immense amount
of passionate fans. It really has to be amazing every
night you step out on stage.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
I mean it's such a gift. And yeah, we've been
in a band together like eighteen years and going on
twenty years. How's that I know? And how special it is,
you know, to kind of raw of us, to like
grow up together and then also like to be able
to just continue to do like what we love and
like our fans still kind of stay on this journey
(10:43):
with us, stay connected with us. The crazy thing is
every night we say how many of you have not
seen us before? And it's almost so much of the crowd,
so that there's even this beautiful energy to be able
to just continue to do honor and do we love
and have growth and you know, have these beautiful things
that manifest and kind of keep unfolding for us. I'm
(11:06):
we're our band is the biggest that we've been now,
So that what I get that is it's crazy, you know.
So the also I need to do is try to
be grateful and do it too low and you know,
until you can't, you always.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
You know what you've always had that message always been
a big pursuer of your passion and you share that
message with everybody out there. If there was imagine this,
if there, if you took you know, just the top
of my head, you got blood, you got black Widow,
Ritual Mother, this with god Mother. If you were to
(11:44):
take all your albums, all your music, if there's one
song that you could play and just one song for
the you know, for you had one stage you could
get on and do one song out of all your arsenal.
What would that one song be? What is the one
song you want to be always remembered for?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Oh my gosh, that's crazy. That's so hard, I know.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Because he has so many Yeah, you personally, it doesn't
have to be a fan song. It doesn't have to
be you know, a song that maybe resonates with all
your fan base because it's huge. But what's the one
song Maria would like to do on stage? Is she
could only do one?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Oh my gosh, I don't even honestly, you know, yeah,
because sometimes like you know, if I'm in like a
melancholy like our song into Dust, it's a cover of
Mazzie Star, that particular Mazzie Star song. If somebody said,
(12:55):
like I could be trapped on a island and I
had to listen to one song forever, it would be
Mazzie's Stars song Into Dusk. So that is like if
I was and I would calming and it's so beautiful.
But when I think of like our biggest songs and
my favorite songs, I mean, Horror is such a it
sounds so hilarious. You don't want to say, oh, that
(13:16):
song horror, but I think I want to be known
forever for Horror. But the real magic to that song
and the special is that it's taking the power back
from something that is dark and degrading, and it's it's
it's turning it into something empowering. And what I have
found is so many people and women who listen to
(13:39):
have found so much empowerment. And I love that. Something
that fills my heart so much is songs that make
other people feel a sense of empowerment or a sense
of feeling and you know, things like that that's me.
That's the magic in the music, you know, and the
connection that you can ask these people you've never met
in your life.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
So it's you know, you connect that magic with almost
literally every every song you do. But you're right about
that one, That one really has had this life of
its own. And it's it's wild how empowering that is
for you know, because it's the flip of the script.
It Normally it is something degrading or something you know
that wouldn't be seen like that, and all of a
(14:19):
sudden you spend it and it's empowered. You're like, you
know what, I have a certain authoritize a certain power,
certain things that other people don't. You know, it's kind
of wild how that the song does do that manifest itself, like,
you know, empowering moment for ye. And I'll be honest
for guys too, for whatever hand. When you guys seeing
(14:40):
that or they're away out in the crowd, you know,
we're kind of powered by a team because it's such
a radical shift of you know, of definition and in meaning.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
And yeah, from something. Yeah, it is. It's cool. I
love Pludu and I love so much of our songs.
The Fighter. I think that's a special one too for
making people feel empowered and uplifted.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Can you believe it?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
By the way, in November it's the ten year anniversary
of the Black Widow album.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
No I can't that's insane.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Yes, that's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I know, oh wow, man, and it is awesome that
you know, if that whole crazy ride. Man, some of
the best moments you look at, especially here in Colorado,
bands that always leave this massive impression and people always
talk about, you know, weeks, months, years after the show.
You got to be in that list when people come
(15:35):
and see you. If you have never seen in this moment,
I swear there is nobody there's ever left in this
moment's show and been you know, upset about it. They
all are blown away by the theatrics, the production, all
the elements you bring out on stage, the other people dancing,
and the you know, the things that will snatch up
a minute of your time as you you sort of
(15:58):
take in everything that you're doing and everything you're showing you.
It's an amazing performance. It's crazy costume changes, it's wild
wind and fire and pyro, and it's an amazing show
and you have mastered it and I can't wait for
this upcoming Sunday to see it yet again.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Oh thank you so much. And we're bringing a video wall,
and we did the video wall all by ourselves, so
it's completely personalized and it's this huge new, all new
element that we've added to the show that really does
visually take it all to a completely new level, to
which I'm so excited for you to see as well.
But yeah, we cannot wait to get there. We know

or like Grease Lightning, like the little thing that I love.
And I would take all the kids and give them
(08:07):
like little roles like from the movie, and we'd all
have our singing parts, and I was passionate. We would
even it was horrible we did this now that I
look back at it, because I care about my landscaping.
But we'd take people's flowers and then when the parents
would come, we'd give each one a flower. I was
thinking it serious at five years old. Yeah, and my mom,
(08:33):
you know, I've said it before, but she as the
little girl, would go to the long seats to her
favorite concerts, and I was seeing Tina Turner, chocolate fibers
all together.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
He Tina Turner, Stevie Dick, see all these people that
Joan Jet And I was like seeing these powerful women
on the stage and see my mama, who loved them
so much. She's sell up dancing with her hands over
her heads.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
And I think, I really believe that's what got me
up there.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
What a cool what a cool line, you know, to
kind of drop because you're so inspired seeing your mom
happy and how passionate she was about it probably kind
of lit that fuse in you, like, hey, I can
be passive about too, and you know what a what
a pursuit? How cool is that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
It was cute and I was always love singing, but
I didn't believe still, I was, you know, in my
probably i'd stay in my twenties. Early twenties is when
I started really believing. Like I started, I started being
in a band in eighteen, but I think it was
just like, you know, you're dreaming, but you don't really think, right,
(09:40):
I'm going to like pick this as my life and
my career and whatnot. You know, But that was probably
like early twenties where I was like, I think I'm
going to really really do this for real, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Yeah, And looking now, man, it's just awesome. Yeah, so
many albums I could probably kind of on my phone.
I think I got more albums from you downloaded on
my phone than anybody body else. It is amazing. It
is still it's just wild to see this ride and
how your band has been you know, just one single
band for so long. You've been with these guys for
(10:10):
so many years. You've experienced so many things, and you
can share that on stage with just an immense amount
of passionate fans. It really has to be amazing every
night you step out on stage.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
I mean it's such a gift. And yeah, we've been
in a band together like eighteen years and going on
twenty years. How's that I know? And how special it is,
you know, to kind of raw of us, to like
grow up together and then also like to be able
to just continue to do like what we love and
like our fans still kind of stay on this journey
(10:43):
with us, stay connected with us. The crazy thing is
every night we say how many of you have not
seen us before? And it's almost so much of the crowd,
so that there's even this beautiful energy to be able
to just continue to do honor and do we love
and have growth and you know, have these beautiful things
that manifest and kind of keep unfolding for us. I'm
(11:06):
we're our band is the biggest that we've been now,
So that what I get that is it's crazy, you know.
So the also I need to do is try to
be grateful and do it too low and you know,
until you can't, you always.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
You know what you've always had that message always been
a big pursuer of your passion and you share that
message with everybody out there. If there was imagine this,
if there, if you took you know, just the top
of my head, you got blood, you got black Widow,
Ritual Mother, this with god Mother. If you were to
(11:44):
take all your albums, all your music, if there's one
song that you could play and just one song for
the you know, for you had one stage you could
get on and do one song out of all your arsenal.
What would that one song be? What is the one
song you want to be always remembered for?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Oh my gosh, that's crazy. That's so hard, I know.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Because he has so many Yeah, you personally, it doesn't
have to be a fan song. It doesn't have to
be you know, a song that maybe resonates with all
your fan base because it's huge. But what's the one
song Maria would like to do on stage? Is she
could only do one?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Oh my gosh, I don't even honestly, you know, yeah,
because sometimes like you know, if I'm in like a
melancholy like our song into Dust, it's a cover of
Mazzie Star, that particular Mazzie Star song. If somebody said,
(12:55):
like I could be trapped on a island and I
had to listen to one song forever, it would be
Mazzie's Stars song Into Dusk. So that is like if
I was and I would calming and it's so beautiful.
But when I think of like our biggest songs and
my favorite songs, I mean, Horror is such a it
sounds so hilarious. You don't want to say, oh, that
(13:16):
song horror, but I think I want to be known
forever for Horror. But the real magic to that song
and the special is that it's taking the power back
from something that is dark and degrading, and it's it's
it's turning it into something empowering. And what I have
found is so many people and women who listen to
(13:39):
have found so much empowerment. And I love that. Something
that fills my heart so much is songs that make
other people feel a sense of empowerment or a sense
of feeling and you know, things like that that's me.
That's the magic in the music, you know, and the
connection that you can ask these people you've never met
in your life.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
So it's you know, you connect that magic with almost
literally every every song you do. But you're right about
that one, That one really has had this life of
its own. And it's it's wild how empowering that is
for you know, because it's the flip of the script.
It Normally it is something degrading or something you know
that wouldn't be seen like that, and all of a
(14:19):
sudden you spend it and it's empowered. You're like, you
know what, I have a certain authoritize a certain power,
certain things that other people don't. You know, it's kind
of wild how that the song does do that manifest itself, like,
you know, empowering moment for ye. And I'll be honest
for guys too, for whatever hand. When you guys seeing
(14:40):
that or they're away out in the crowd, you know,
we're kind of powered by a team because it's such
a radical shift of you know, of definition and in meaning.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
And yeah, from something. Yeah, it is. It's cool. I
love Pludu and I love so much of our songs.
The Fighter. I think that's a special one too for
making people feel empowered and uplifted.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Can you believe it?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
By the way, in November it's the ten year anniversary
of the Black Widow album.
Speaker 1 (15:11):

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Yes, that's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I know, oh wow, man, and it is awesome that
