PipemanRadio Interviews Fleishkrieg

On this episode of the Adventures of Pipeman, Pipeman interviews the members of the band Fleischkrieg. Pipeman expresses his admiration for their music, which he describes as a combination of industrial metal and new wave. He appreciates that the band has created its own genre, which he finds cool for many reasons. Pipeman often asks bands to describe their genre, and they jokingly refer to their music as power slop, but Fleischkrieg has coined the term brutal wave, which they feel aptly describes their music. Fleischkrieg members credit Thomas for coming up with the term brutal wave, which they initially thought was silly but has since grown on them. When they have to describe their music, publicists ask them to come up with creative and unique genres that often lead to the creation of micro-genres, which Fleischkrieg feels forced to participate in. All the members of the band come from different musical backgrounds, but they share a common love for dance synth, metal, and new wave. This combination of influences led to the creation of their unique genre, brutal wave. Pipeman shares his musical journey with the members of Fleischkrieg, describing how he was a teenager in the 80s and lived on the Sunset Strip, where he encountered the snobbish attitude of US Metalheads towards new wave music. He recalls a funny incident when he discovered and fell in love with Adam and the Ants' Kings of the Wild Frontier, which he describes as one of his favorite albums to date. Pipeman expresses his appreciation for Fleischkrieg, which he believes has allowed him to be a metalhead and a new waiver at the same time, fulfilling his musical dream. Finally, the guys talk about how they come from different musical backgrounds but share a common love for dance synth, metal, and new wave, which led to the creation of their unique sound. You can check the website out at www.fleischkrieg.com, and you can find all of the links to where you can play their music and follow their socials their via their linktree, making spelling that name a whole lot easier! They’re also piloting a programme called backstage where you can unlock exclusive content, kind of like Patreon but using virtual currency, so be sure to keep your eye on that too.

FLEISCHKRIEG is the result of a chance encounter between an Uber driver and a drunk passenger partying in Seattle. The driver, Richard Cranor, and the passenger, Thomas Crawford, found themselves kindred spirits through a mutual love of Rammstein and industrial metal. When the opening act dropped out of Thomas’s solo “Ceraphym” show, he invited Richard to perform in their place. Richard agreed with the caveat that Thomas play guitars, and FLEISCHKRIEG was formed. The group, currently based in L.A., cite Rammstein, DK-Zero, Die Krupps, and Lord of the Lost as musical influences. Their moody electronic sound melds industrial metal with darkwave undertones, creating the genre of “Brutalwave”: a blend of new wave, metal guitars, and crushing industrial dance beats andvocals. Now with the addition of Nick Mason on Drums and Kaylie Cortez on synth/keyboards, FLEISCHKRIEG’s live shows are a force to be reckoned with.
