This month, Jimmy Lazer and Jesse Korman stopped by to give us a full behind the scenes look at the Lil Thrashers Universe. We spoke about the origins of the expansive cartoon universe, how to cover "all the hats" with a very small team, the innovative "Beat-To-Short" writing approach we've adapted for the series, and so much more.
Welcome to Grimstone!
About Lil Thrashers (as told by series creator, Jimmy Lazer)
Lil Thrashers was born from a love of cartoons and heavy metal - A match made in hell haha. Anyway, I've learned a lot of my most valuable life lessons from playing in bands over the years. Now that I am a dad, it's been exciting to share these lessons and interests with my young son. Lil Thrashers was sort of a one-off thing, wanting to have a Covid project that involved music while the world was separated- but it's evolved into much more than that, and really it's just been an amazing way to collaborate with like minded artists and musicians from all around. The goal is to capture the essence of that shared experience we call the heavy metal scene, the kinship of playing music with other weirdos who 'get you', and hopefully also capturing a smidge of the silliness and fun that we all indulge in even when we are trying hard to be super serious.
