I'm excited about this one. I've said it many times

and they've been since they dropped their album in Toronto Blue.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
The Tyrants by the Tyrants, self titled.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Student fucking Fantastic.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
It is crazy.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
It is the biggest, the biggest release that we've dropped ever,
like ever, more than any singles and EPs. It's a
really crazy situation and I'm super proud of all the songs.
All the songs doing well right now, if anybody's curious.
As the top three songs as of this is about
a week and a half after the album has been out.
Top three songs Breakthrough number one, number two's minute Son,

(04:24):
number three of the Black and Chores of Dreams. Nice
song which shows people are listening because Minette Son is
actually the last song on the album. So it's pretty
cool to see, like all the it's cool to see
people gravitate to certain songs, like I can see like
what songs are hitting, Turning on the Sky, which I
thought we thought was going to be like a flop
because like mid album, it's like, yeah, not one of

(04:45):
our favorite songs on the album. It's cool. I like
it a lot, of course, it's not one of the faves,
and that one's getting attention, and then Escape the Lies
is also getting attention. More on TikTok right now, But
it's pretty cool to kind of see what songs everyone's
gravitating towards. You guys can check that out. We're gonna
have John, a new bassist, the one who replaced Baji
right here. We're gonna have Basji interview him on the podcast. Now,

(05:09):
We're gonna have him come on as a guest joke
because you quit. Why did they talk like redneck Hillbillies?
Can you I mentione John John's John's Korean? The Filipino.
Something went all this time thinking John was Korean and

(05:29):
Philip Wow, I thought he was like a dark Korean.
I'm not trying to be racist. I just always thought
it was Korean. I think it's because when that movie
The Interview came out. I think he had made like
a lot of jokes about that, and I just assumed,
like Kim John Un John be young like.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
He was Kim John and uh uh no, he was
a fucking style.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Oh yeah, he dressed up as him sy.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Yeah, yeah, I remember Kim John noon guy. Yeah yeah, same dude.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
I mean, you know, can you imagine dude, We should
have just fucking started the set off like that, which
is this our new bassist? Wow? And fucking have John
just come out, what's up everybody?

Speaker 2 (06:26):
I would have been epic.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
And he's like, where's my bass? And then here comes
Boji with the bass, just.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
Dancing, shaking those hips, sucking John, there you.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Go, give me the five string. That would have been
a really cool.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
To do this whole bit.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Have candles lit right like a torch, little torch, John
grabs it.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
Started hanging out people for those fucking things you give
it to people in Hawaii.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
I don't know right, do you know the dance? Do
you all know that? You guys don't know the dance?
I don't know the move?

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Can you do it for us?

Speaker 1 (07:15):
I don't know if I can do it. I don't
know if I can do it.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
It's hard or can I or canny?

Speaker 1 (07:23):
It was like this, I think like this something.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
It's like a lot of there you go.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
That's a lot of TikTok girls.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Do you say TikTok?

Speaker 2 (07:34):
That's where they get it from.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
You guys will know. You guys know that super dance?
All right? Whatever? I mean, I know it.

Speaker 4 (07:40):
We're already gonna get a strike for this episode.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
Yeah, wonderful, we don't get a strike. We ain't doing
it right.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
Right, So what's cool about this episode is we're not
just talking about Spearbox, We're talking about a new single.
We're doing a single drop segment for this episode, which
is whenever a new band, the kind of peaks are
interest that we want to talk about when they drop
a new song, We'll go ahead, we'll listen to it.
We'll do a mini, little kind of playlist review kind
of how we do that. Listen to minute, minute a half,
two minutes, and then off of our thoughts on the song.

(08:09):
What's interesting about this episode is on the last episode,
the Ginger episode, which is actually getting some really good
plays right now. I just want to put that out there,
our friend Rudy dropped a confession and shocked the metaology world,
cemented his name as a sexist metal head, not a

(08:32):
not a sexist man, not a sexist person in society,
A sexist metal head. Rudy, you want to speak on it.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
And we were so proud of him.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
I mean, man, I just I like my metal a
certain way.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
I like it heavy. I mean, I'm not saying it
was bad. It just it doesn't peak my it doesn't
keep me interested.

Speaker 3 (08:56):
So a guy can sing horribly, but then when a
woman sings nice, you're just like, Nope, not my metal.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
When it's like a top singer of the world, the
beautiful singer. Motherfucker's out here listening to my staying.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
Just I love Misstaing's voice, Dan Dan's. It just doesn't
rub me like the way other stuff rubs me. Gets
it like, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
Can you imagine Dave Mistann listening to Tatiana from Ginger singing.
She's singing in.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Key Yeah, I know you heard us, girl from Lacuna Coil.
They're collaboration, but yeah, I hear you because it took
me a long time to like open up to that
kind of stuff.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Dude, So you're not a big anymore though you're trying
to say.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah, farmers, farmers.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
I listened to other style, other styles of music with
female vocal or female singers, and that you do it's
it's amazing.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
I love it. Well, that's just in metal. I like
it a little more well that that. That's why you're
not sexist, No, I like you're just I prefer the
screams and the growls. You just sexist when it comes
to metal. That's like being racist going in the CBS.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
If Ginger didn't have any singings and they're.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Still talk, it'd be awesome.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
It'd be Yeah. I think you said that there was one.

Speaker 4 (10:18):
There was like two or three songs where there was
zero singing, and those are my favorite songs.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
There you go, Well, we're gonna see if we can
change your minds. I know we're gonna see. We're gonna tempt,
We're gonna I'm gonna try.

Speaker 4 (10:31):
Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna honestly try. And we have
two times because we're not just doing sperbok. We're talking
about Kitty's new song. Well, I want to say it's Kitty,
and two of the collaborators won't get to that information.
In a second. We're gonna try and see who can
sway you. Tonight, we're gonna attempt to sway him. This
is gonna be like the fat bitch trying to hit
on the dude that only goes for the thick chicks.
I like my thinkies, but I like them a certain way.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
That's true. You have to the bellies gotta come before
the tits m after this a little too big, So
that's what you're out right now, you're on that level.
We're gonna see if we can find that gorgeous to
give you some love and you'll give permission? Is that okay?
But this is like the metal version of that, and
they're not extremely okay? Are you ready for this? Well,

(11:24):
there's almost nor thus in music period, even Liz a
Last Weight, even Liz god on Nose Epic.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
There should be more.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
I agree, I think you know, the thicker the better.
All right, let's continue, all right, So we're gonna get
into the song the Unforgiven. Have you guys heard this song,
by the way, I have not.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
I have not.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
I wonder if this is the Metallica cover because I
know that. So so this song is off of the
Queen of the Ring soundtrack the movie drops Oh it
comes out today seven so Battlements and Corey Taylor just
released a single for that soundtrack in the Wind. So
that's a cover. So I wonder if this whole album
is covers.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
That's what I was thinking too, that that'd be nice.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
So like a good cover, we're gonna find out my
bad We're gonna find out any minutes because I'm wearing
this Evanescent shirt right in protests to Rudy not liking
women in metal, and I consider the first Evanescence.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
Album me okay, just I like when they scream or
not when they are amazing opera singers. I don't know,
because remember I brought up Craddle Filth. Cradle Filth has
an opera singer and I love her, and that it
just sounds right a.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Least the same ship he's an opera singer, doesn't It's
not it's not.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Have we done an.

Speaker 4 (12:39):
Episode Evanescence or Cradle? No, we haven't, and most of
the songs have we I think we have. We did
do Cradle, we did it in the earlier seasons, but
we just never got to We're gonna do.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
We should do because there's some of their modern stuff
is like heavy.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
The Monoto is pretty cool too. So we're gonna see
if we can swave Rudy. That's gonna be the theme
of tonight's episode is talking about female singers, and I.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Don't think I can change his mind, but how much try,
We're gonna try. So.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
This song also features the Pretty Wild and Diamante Diamante
is famous for doing Hear Me Now with Bad Wolves,
which was a top top ten single, so she's the
singer on that and The Pretty Wild. I think The
Pretty Wild is just like a rock band with two ladies.
So all right, anyways, I'm gonna stop talking. We're gonna

(13:31):
get into The Unforgiven from the Queen of the Ring
soundtrack out now in theaters. I think or Netflix one
of the two.

Speaker 3 (13:38):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
This is Kitty Diamante and The Pretty Wild and eron Gilepsi. Okay,
there is a lot of more credits on this one. Really, yeah,
let me see. I can pull it up so I
can get the proper there.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
So it's not Kitty.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
It is a Metallica song because it says written by
James Headfield, okay, uh, performed by Aaron Gillis, Giluise Diamante,
Kitty Quinn Thin the Pertty while Okay, so this thing
is long over the place, Uh, The Unforgiven. Let's see
if this is good. And I'm a big Metallica fan,
especially a black album.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Song, Yes you are, let's find out.

Speaker 3 (14:17):
Okay, I'm liking it. Song sick, Oh it's in the background.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
I don't like that. I don't like that.

Speaker 3 (14:41):
Cratoic, coolstant scream. I feel like I gotta be in
a mood for this. Like it's not bad, but I
feel I have to be in a mood.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
Yeah, look at Rudy already it's not even metal yet,
just acoustic guitar.

Speaker 5 (15:12):
I don't think it's gonna I think it's gonna be
a crust the whole way.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Diamonte.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Okay, we're wedding.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
See the scenes opening up in the movie.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Like, this feels like it's take it forever. It didn't
take it forever to be.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
I don't think it's ever coming. Bro, rattlesnakes, it's acoustic.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
I'm gonna fast forward it.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
We're just checking to see if it starts.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
That's a violin.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
I just wanna, I just wanna. I just want to
shout these girls out, get your bag when you can
get your money. I can't believe we just played that
on the podcast. Did you you you recommended that? Now
I'm with Rudy Now, I don't like females and metal anymore.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
This was because, if so, I don't want who I'm
the one who. I thought we're gonna hear kitty people. Yeah, hey,
is it featured like Morgan or something.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
Is that why there's no heavy part.

Speaker 4 (16:54):
It's just violin, So I'll get with this. It made
me feel like I was inside of the house, like
a world of warcraft or some ship, like you know,
the tavern type of thing.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
The movie is definitely definitely a Western.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
How it's a fucking movie called Queen of the Ring.
It's about a female wrestling.

Speaker 4 (17:10):
I don't, I don't know what. I don't, all right,
look either way, that was fucking lame.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
Was lame, not what I wanted to hear.

Speaker 3 (17:20):
If that's like her intro song.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
Yeah, okay, well I mean so yeah, did you like it?

Speaker 3 (17:27):
No?

Speaker 2 (17:27):
I did, Like.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
I mean, it wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't what
we all expected. I mean, like, the thing is, that's
a song that you play like when you're driving at
home at night, or like on a long trip, especially
like going down the desert, like come back from Vegas
or some ship. I think that when you put Kitty
on that track. Okay, so that's not Kitty. Nobody in
the band is playing on that song except for Morgan,

(17:55):
so they I don't know why they didn't just have
her name that they had the band Kitty. When you
when you say that's like, that's like the Dust and
the Wind song with bad Omens and Cortia. It's very similar.
It's very just kind of chill. If you were to
put bad olements and slip knot automatically, you think it's
gonna get heavy. So I'm upset. I'm upset. I feel
that the marketing team for that album can suck a

(18:16):
fucking deck.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
I noticed and uh, lookin O Coil featuring Randy blythe
is said Looquino Coil Randy blythe lam of God. Yeah,
and I was like, Okay, maybe it's a jointed. It's like, well, yeah,
it's a kitty, But if it was that, yeah, no.
I I was hoping to hear something from them because
I love Brackish and you know that ship was awesome
back in the day.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Well we heard of.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
I know, I got some whistles and some western little.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Flute and violin and just a bunch of chicks singing
about Metallica.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
So yeah, so I'm forgetting.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
I'm on the I'm actually leading. Is unforgiving it is,
you know, I don't know, unforgivable. We will see anyways,
So we're gonna move on to the reason why everyone's
here today. We were talking about spirit Boxes, Ssunami Seen.
We're gonna talk a little bit about what we know

(19:12):
the album, haven't been looking forward to it, things like that.
I just want to lead off with I've been looking
forward to this album for a very long time.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
You've been talking about this for a long time. You're
the one who showed me spirit Box.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
So I mean it's different because spirit Box when they
came out, they dropped six singles before they even dropped
the album. Yeah, so when the album came out, you
already had six songs that like, I already had six
songs that I love. So I already loved half the
album the minute that I downloaded that album and then
fell in love with the other songs too. They put
out an EP a few years ago called The Void,
which also I think all the all four songs, four

(19:47):
or five songs were released as singles and that was
awesome too. That was very different for the band with
what they were doing. So I was looking forward to
this album. I was very much looking forward to this album.
Like I said, like Korn's my all time favorite band,
and you know Metallican Corn always kind of like tie
for me. But right now, if you were asking who's
you favorite band right now, Spearbox is and has been
for six years now. Like they're the band that I

(20:09):
go to when I'm writing music for the five or
when I'm trying to come with musical ideas. They're the
band that like probably influences me the most. And I've
always had that with bands with female singers.

Speaker 2 (20:20):
Where like female females.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Is that why you didn't like my band in high school?
Because we had least bath? It wasn't that it was
because we sucked. We're terrible. You could say we were
really bad.

Speaker 3 (20:30):
I knew were horrible.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
We're terrible.

Speaker 4 (20:32):
Honestly, I haven't. I don't remember much of high school.
You remember drained, right?

Speaker 1 (20:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (20:37):
I have it.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
You were thirty three. Oh it was sucking. The high
school was uh you were a draint all fuck yeah
fuck I remember draining. God damn.

Speaker 4 (20:49):
I hang out with the guys like every day I
saw you every day? Yeah you saw me, yeah, But
I mean, like, remember John, you think it was right
to school at home?

Speaker 1 (20:57):
Like I used to see you at the luncherry, But hey,
what do you like? Here's actually after tenth grade.

Speaker 4 (21:01):
I never went to lunch again, dude, really you don't
because I was anti social and World War craft was
my drug.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
All right, feels good old days. So what was I saying? Oh? So,
I've always I've always, like most of the bends listen
to her vocalists, right, but creatively, I've always felt more
like a female's voice was better on the songs that
I wrote your fiancee, Daniel. She was in my band

(21:31):
in thirty thirty for a while. The best, some of
the best songs ever wrote was with Daniel. I still
listen to them, and so, I don't know, I've always
I've always felt at home with female singers. I don't
know why.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
I hear that more of like electronic music. I prefer
like soothing like female voice. Yeah, I don't know why
not that I don't listen to dudes. You know it's electronic.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
But I don't know.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
Man, Yeah, I feel you amazing.

Speaker 1 (21:57):
Yeah, you know, fucking I'll can you mention Alex in
the car? It's just like, you know, what won't make
the song better?

Speaker 2 (22:06):
A female singer, A female singer, a female German singer.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
Female, and then and then fucking boss, He's just at home,
just touching himself.

Speaker 2 (22:13):
Just just enjoying himself. I've been looking at us and.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
The Alex can feel him on the ride home.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
Yeah, we're just knowing that he's doing it. It's just.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
You guys. You guys want to say the same song.
It'd be like looking at the moon at the same time.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
Oh yeah, while bobbing our heads, bobbing.

Speaker 3 (22:30):
Their heads, look at the moon. We see each other
reflection in the moon and we're like.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
Oh, you see reflection in.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
The rear window, just like and boss, he's just right there,
just oh yeah. Alex blushes. And then the song kicks in.
There you go, that's a fucking banger right there, dude.
And then is this you know, it's like ninety's Oh dude,
this snap, bro, there's like ninety really something like that,

(22:57):
like ninety two. Fucking boss, he's just right there the
front nipples. Just come on, give us a scene, give
us a scene.

Speaker 2 (23:03):
It's just right off of a little Nikkia.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
So we're talking about speitbox Stot. You need to stop
going on track, thank you. Boji looks at way there's
a reflection of Alex.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
Huh.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
So today we're talking about Sam so I've been looking
forward to this home for a while. I just want
ahead and round to the room real quick.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Were you guys anticipating this record? Is it something that
was on your radar? We'll start with Baji M To
be honest.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
No, not a I'm not a huge Spiritbox fan. I
do like their songs, but I'm not a huge fan
where I'm just like constantly like what looking you know,
or I'm not. I'm not. I'm not getting up to
dig them.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
You too? You too? Okay? I like them, I just
I don't.

Speaker 3 (23:52):
I'm not up to date with them.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
If I am the only spirit Box fan in this room,
I'm gonna fucking ry. I like.

Speaker 3 (23:58):
Don't get me wrong, I like them, it's just better
I don't keep up to date unless like they're posting
like their singles or whatever, they're little reels with like women.

Speaker 4 (24:10):
It's not gonna what a dude, what the fuck is
Being honest, Wait, there's there's a lot of music with
big breasted women with this No. No, I was just
in general that was like possibly like a viral that
should be a thing, well, you know kind of have
like chicks fucking dance to custard yeah, and they made it.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
They made it like for context, so our listeners don't
think that he just randomly spouted some fucking misogynistic ship.
This is a man who is heavily, heavily addicted to pornography,
heavily addicted to hen Tai and futa. This man right here,

(24:52):
and what pornography too?

Speaker 2 (24:53):
Okay, what the trilogy?

Speaker 3 (24:55):
Trilogy?

Speaker 1 (24:56):
So what's ahead of pornography or would you consider how
to be a part of because I consider it to
be like an art form slash porn. Porn is the
best porn. But do you watch more hinti than you
do actual like live action porn.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
Mm hmm I think I do watch a bit more
hint ty than actually.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Okay, so he's I have mistic banged god damn. Okay,
So that that is a fictional character, yes, fiction, So
that's where this comes from. It's not that he's misogynistic.
He just thinks about big breasted Henti women a lot
about women.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
They have big bainey cocks, big.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
Big breasted or not women just in general. Great Alex,
So have you been looking forward to.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
I have, so they're not in my radar. But when
you meant when you had mentioned it. I was like,
you know what, They're probably going to be doing some
heavy ship, so I'd be down to check him out.
And that's it. Though. As soon as you mentioned is
like when I found out.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
Okay, oh yeah, dare I ask you, I've been waiting
for this day, dude, perish the thought.

Speaker 1 (26:12):
I'm honestly, I mean, no.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Good answer, honest.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
I just found out about this like probably yesterday, like
a couple of.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
Days ago, when you mentioned it, honest abe.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
And then we'll get to more reasons why you were
not looking forward to it as we go along with
the episode.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
We'll become a parent.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
We'll become a parent, all right, So are we ready?
Are we ready to go?

Speaker 2 (26:36):
I'm ready about of practice.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
So this is Tsunami see by Spearbox, highly anticipated I
has been. They dropped three singles. Uh, if you were
to ask me, these three singles weren't as big as
the previous singles on their other release, but there was
a lot of attention to one specific song just because
of how different it is for their style and how
heavy it is. One thing I want you guys to

(26:59):
listen to and are listeners to listen to us well,
whether it's on this podcast or on the album by itself.
Is the production the production for this album fucking gritty,
like it's dark for some reason. It's so nasty but awesome. Yeah,
It's like the Eternal Blue was like, to me, great album,
but the production of it was very like what Metal

(27:21):
is doing right now. This album is you could tell
they're trying to do something different. Which I love God.
I love you really, I love you. I'm just saying
I love you. I'm reminded myself because he's sweet, that's true,
and he's he's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
He's just perfect in every single way, perfect in every
way and everything.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
All right. So saying that, we're getting into the first
track of the album. This is Fata morgana Fata. I
thought so too. Oh shit, ooh.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Very corny. Oh that cool?

Speaker 1 (28:21):
How can you hate this?

Speaker 4 (28:24):
It's great so far, Like right now, this is amazing.
This is good and I don't hate anything that.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Well.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
I wasn't asking you, but I okay.

Speaker 6 (28:45):
House.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
Fucko DestinE chords. I love it.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
I love that chorus.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
Dude. It's a lot of effects.

Speaker 3 (29:23):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
It's a vibe. Uh.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
And then we go back into it bottom morgana indeed
that fucking chorus. I love production wise, how the vocals
are still kind of in the back, you know, like
it's kind of like almost like a backing vocal.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
I don't even like theft sounds like yeah approach.

Speaker 1 (30:02):
Yeah, because it just makes those chords like even heavier,
you know, when they take the tool school of production,
which is, don't have the vocals in front, let the
music be in the front, you know, And I think
that's pretty cool. Uh, it's a good vibe. Mm So
let's uh, let's talk about Fata morgana Baji Fata racing.

Speaker 3 (30:29):
I loved it. It was really good. I wasn't in
I don't know. I wasn't expecting that, to be honest, Like,
I don't know. I feel like they went they definitely
have they gotten heavier than from what I remember hearing them.
They it's definitely more heavier. Not I wasn't a big
fan of the chorus per se, but I still like

(30:51):
the song. It's still a good, still good song.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
I love that chorus, man, No, I'm not.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
It's not a bad chorus just for me. I'm like,
I don't like, I feel like I was expecting more
more from them.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Is that the chorus right now?

Speaker 3 (31:02):
Yeah, Like, don't get me wrong, I like it. It
gives me like some taking them hearts vibe.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
Well, this is kind of just for this song. She
does see she's more in the front than other songs.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
This is just the vibe. But I still like it.

Speaker 4 (31:20):
Still, this is like it sounds like she's like in
a dream or something. Yeah, like coming in from the outside,
like looking in from the outside type of ship.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
Argue that it's good.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
Just I don't know, can I play this breakdown real quick?

Speaker 7 (31:42):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Oh, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it,
wait for it.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
Oh that sounds good.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Funk with your boy, isn't it me?

Speaker 3 (32:05):
Or like, is this year like the year of breakdowns?
Like some of the bands I've heard this year have
had some like gnarly.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
Breakdown I feel like bands are I think like a
lot of those like death cores gen bands, They're like,
we've already done our commercially. Shit, We're gonna do a
little bit of this again. We're gonna bring it back
to the heavy a little bit.

Speaker 3 (32:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
Thoughts on the MORGANA.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
That's a really good opener. Heavi as fuck, very floaty,
like ethereal, ghostly like chorus, just really digging the vibe
and yeah it's a good song.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
Go cool. So what do we get for you, Rudy?
I tried listening to like like the lyrics, No, no, no,
I did.

Speaker 4 (32:54):
I actually did though, Like this time I actually felt
something as compared to when I.

Speaker 3 (32:59):
Skipped, like, so your heart it beat?

Speaker 1 (33:03):
What did you feel, my brother? It felt like a story,
like I want to read the lyrics. Okay, yeah, the
lyrics aren't available yet. It's about a week or so. Okay,
but right now they're not available. I think it just
dropped because it's just dropped today, so super and it
was a it was a good intro song. Yeah. What
I like about this song being the opener is just

(33:23):
like with the first album, uh son Killer was kind
of the same temple. It's like a world of a
slower temple. It's not they don't open hot, but it's
still like intense as fuck. But sun Killer takes a
minute to get intense. This one like fucking ride off
the bat. You get the swell and then fucking love
it all right, So we're gonna move on from Fata

(33:44):
Morgano to the next song. Mind You for listeners and
you guys. This album is also only forty three minutes long,
which going with a trend of the last two albums
under forty five minutes. Yeah, I appreciate that I listened
to the album three times today.

Speaker 3 (33:58):
I think people are like getting our bands are like
starting to starting to get away from that like hour
hour and a half. Fucking yeah album album time, which honestly,
it's very pretty. It's apretty good because like you can
listen to it on the drive to work, drive from home.
You don't have to, like you get home, you're like, man,
I'm only halfway done.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
Yeah, yeah, because I love that when we need to
kill switch. I listened to the album on the way
to work and then on the way back, and I
was able to dissect it a lot easier. And Ginger's
dual I listened to a couple of times too, to
you know, give my opinions, same thing, full album in
one setting. So I love the whole forty five minute
kind of like trend that's happening right now, all right.

(34:39):
Nixt song is Black Rainbow. Oh shit, look at Hundre,
he knows what's up.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
He gave me static vibe. This dude, give me Orbit
culture vibes, heavy production.

Speaker 3 (34:55):
Let's go all right, I can find with this.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
Oh god, uh, I'm opening this motherfucker.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
Up, open it up. Ooh okay, robotic.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Like it's eastatic, right, but I still feel corn. I
feel like I feel feel corn. Is this on Tuesday?

Speaker 2 (36:23):
That guitar so fucking cool?

Speaker 1 (36:28):
Oh all right, we're gonna enlup listening to the whole song.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
If I do that, it's gonna make me do something
in my pants.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
Reminds me so much of like Orbit Culture, like just
like the low tune in the heaviness, but it just
fucking it's like slipknot like it pushes tempo.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
I was gonna say this because I made a comment
earlier about who she reminds me of on this record.
She reminds me of like Iowa era Corey Taylor, Like
she's just like like really pushing. She's not just like
screaming where it's like making the voice like she's really
pushing and projecting hard. And I feel like there's a
lot of similarities.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
That's just me.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
I did not make that comment to upset you. I
know you're a big son.

Speaker 4 (37:16):
I have nothing bad to say about the song, It
was actually really good. It reminded me a lot of
that fucking video game Doom the intro.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
Du I also love her voice during the verses where
it's like she's not singing, she's like.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
Talking like a cybernetic organism.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
Like she reminds me of like Billie Eilish, because like
Billy Elish has that talking singing like very quiet and
very near. You never heard Billy Eilish. I'll there's.

Speaker 2 (37:50):
We all do.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
There's a song by Billy Elish I think would be
a sick metal cover. So you should see me in
a crown?

Speaker 3 (37:57):
Which one?

Speaker 1 (37:58):
If I played it for you, you would probably be like,
that's a metal version, probably sound like this. It's fucking killer. Anyways,
back to Black Rainbow. Thoughts of Black Rainbow.

Speaker 3 (38:06):
I love it. It's like the energy is still continuing
from the first one, and it's definitely I'm definitely feeling
it like I see the static. For some reason, I
feel like these two songs I have like a lot
of corn influence for me, for me personally, like I
feel like this isn't.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
That their big influence, one of their influences.

Speaker 1 (38:27):
It's a big they actually put out a song. I'll
just play like the first like ten seconds of it.
They put on a song called Rotoscope, which I've always
said they had to rip corn off because it is
so like corn adjacent.

Speaker 3 (38:41):
Like it's just like like their rifts are very bouncy. Yeah,
Like even though they're very like very heavy, very like
like pushing I want I don't say pushing tempo, but
they're just pushing. Yeah, it's still like the rifts are
still like fucking bouncy like this rift, Yeah, fucking bouncing.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
So this is the song of someone that sounds like
See You on the the Sun, Eric Corn. It's like
Bill Alish meets See You on the Sun Corn. So
when the guitar is kicking, you're gonna be like, that's Corn.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
It's like, this is cool, dude, Who is this? The
spear box really is like the EP you're talking.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
About, yeah, or the ep Rotoscope? Yeah, am I turning
on my radar? Me and Brandan only ever talked about
Tearbox and you're over here the first over here to
the Son of a Bitch.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
That did sound cool, dude. Remember that sounded very like electronics.
That was a female, but that wasn't metal like it
but that wasn't metal. That right now, that little snippet
wasn't something necessarily metal. I mean it was not like
industrial to me, you know, which.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
Is pretty bad metal. I like that kind of ship.
I mean, you know, fucking lady tron ship.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
And then when she when she goes off, I'll play it.
She runs a Corey Taylor right here. This is where
the Corey tailer I started with me with Courtney wait
for it here. It is.

Speaker 7 (40:16):
Around the same song that's She's angry, angry, but uh,
I like, I like that, So you like that?

Speaker 1 (40:29):
Yeah, bitch rude, she's not singing, but she was singing
early in the song. We're narrowing it down. We're gonna
figure this out, Rudy, You and me are going to
figure this motherfucker out. I'm being completely honest, not bad,
not bad all right. Back to Black Rainbow though, okay,
one hundred thoughts on Black Rainbow.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
Uh, this song is officially dare I say, oh ship,
I'm doing it right now. It's going in the playlist,
which in the g spot playlist of my It's something
I want to hear again. I just want to keep
hearing it and just like pay attention to the different things.

(41:12):
Uh static X you know, I felt that energy, so
I don't know, I really liked the song a lot.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
Cool. Just know all the music I'm bringing into device.
That's where I'm kind of going.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
With no we we we talked about that where we're
going to go full yeah, yeah, exactly, just embracing it.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
Yeah, so that's kind of the bye that we're going for.
Rudy thoughts on Black Rainbow Man.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
I liked it.

Speaker 1 (41:43):
So that's so you like both. So this is the
third one. We're about to go to the third.

Speaker 2 (41:47):
One technically, Yeah, you did play that extra song which
I like too.

Speaker 1 (41:53):
So are on three or four?

Speaker 2 (41:55):
This is the third of the album that we're reviewing.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
Well, yeah, so this is there give eleven all right.
I think we're gonna lose you on this one. I'm
not gonna lie. Yeah, I don't want to put this
energy out. I feel like we're gonna lose you, all right.
This is one is called perfect Soul.

Speaker 3 (42:26):
Oh yeah, before you go.

Speaker 1 (42:58):
Beautiful there. But this chorus though, so cover perfect Soul.

(43:39):
So that's more like traditional spirit Box. That's more of
the sound that they're known for. I mean, they always
have a heavy ship that if you were listening like
five songs from the first album, they would probably sound
like that. I almost identical, like if my favorite song
is sound like that. So I love the song. I
love the emotional kind of like Detour We Take because

(44:03):
the first two are heavy and gritty and dark and angry,
and this one kind of brings it back to like
a very dreamy kind of state. So it feels like
almost like a bipolar nightmare. It's like we're moving from
like the evil darkness and then we're moving over here
like more tranquility, I guess you could say. But the
music still pops like it's still jumpy as fuck, like
you could tell this is a song when they play live,

(44:24):
the fucking crowd's bouncing with them. And I love the Course.
I think the beat behind the Course is pretty sick too.
It's just a straight up Metallica do.

Speaker 2 (44:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
So it's a little different. Bajie thoughts on Perfect Circle,
Perfect Soul, Perfect.

Speaker 3 (44:41):
I like it really nice, Like this is like the
type this is like when I think of spear Box,
This is what I think.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
Of, yeah, and I like it.

Speaker 3 (44:49):
Like her vocals, I don't know, they're just very very
very like like surround sound. I don't know what the
word like. They're just very like it's very open, and
that's what I like about it.

Speaker 1 (45:04):
It's like very wide, yeah, and it's just like I
don't know.

Speaker 3 (45:07):
It's just like the imagination with it is just wild,
like you can just fucking I like the song, ye,
like I'd love the heavy stuff, but I also love
like the light stuff like this.

Speaker 1 (45:18):
If you listen to it, there's a harmony going on,
but I don't believe it's I think there she's performing
one harmony. But they do a lot of like octavers,
like they use that effect the octavia or whatever. We
have it in our in our jst multiplier where her
voice is like in three different ranges at once and
it creates a very robotic sound.

Speaker 2 (45:39):
I really like it.

Speaker 1 (45:41):
It's they did on the first song a little bit.
It's more apparent on this album thoughts on Perfect Soul.

Speaker 2 (45:48):
It's a good track. It did throw me off, like
the first two songs just being so like I've forgotten
that this is what they sound like all the time,
because like I you know, like I said, this wasn't
in my radar, so this was just a reminders like oh,
like damn. But but I see what you mean where
it's like it's still going with the vibes that it's

(46:11):
been introduced so far, especially with like the ones heavy
number two starts dipping into the and then this one
just seems like okay, but I gotta it did like
throw me off, Like I was like, oh, man, I
want the you want the first two tracks, dude? You
know I want more of that ship.

Speaker 1 (46:29):
Yeah, so do we lose you ready losey three songs in?
She has a good voice. She has a voice. No,
she has I'm not gonna like she has fantastic, she
has like lower.

Speaker 4 (46:45):
Like oh, her voice sounds wide, like I even want
to say. Her voice sounds angelic, and it sounds very
fucking pretty and beautiful. But I guess it's just I'm
not used to this fucking type of metal.

Speaker 1 (46:55):
Dude. It's too poppy and uplifting, and.

Speaker 3 (47:00):
I don't want to be lifted.

Speaker 1 (47:01):
You wanted to be buried. I don't know, but see,
I like it's not bad, it's just I haven't really
dabbled in this type of metal.

Speaker 3 (47:12):
Like, it's just you know, he doesn't want to be uplifted.
He wants to be buried.

Speaker 4 (47:17):
I don't want to be buried either, but six feet
you know, it's okay, that's one song. Yeah, And honestly,
like her voice is really fucking pretty, dude. Yeah, Like
I like it compared to Gingers.

Speaker 1 (47:30):
So one thing that Druman is. One thing the Druman
is spearbox. When they first came out and I heard
her voice, I always felt she had like a very
nineties kind of voice, like a very like she has
like that vibe to her voice, very nineties alternative, maybe
like R and B. And then I listened to a
lot of interviews with her and she said straight up
like she's like, I grew up on like nineties hip

(47:51):
hop and R and B, and I think a lot
of us did. And so she was like, that's where
I get a lot of my influences from singing. Wise,
it's like that era of singing. So it makes a
lot more sense. And I'm trying to figure out exactly
what isn't about about it that makes it nineties. I
don't know if it's the like, you know, the fluctuation
or what she's doing, but orange is her natural voice,

(48:11):
you know, I don't know, but it's one of the
reasons I love her voice. Okay, it's a very different singer. Yeah,
all right, cool, all right, No, I thought you were
gonna say something I forgot. I'll come back to me
then I'll tell you. So we're gonna go to the

(48:33):
fourth song. We're gonna see we can get you back. Ruddy,
you're gonna you're gonna you're gonna jump on the train
with me. God damn it. This is gonna be the
episode You're gonna jump on the train with me. I
believe in you.

Speaker 3 (48:43):
Before before we continue. Okay, So why don't so you
said her voice was beautiful?

Speaker 2 (48:48):
Right?

Speaker 3 (48:48):
Yeah, okay, so her voice compared to Ginger's voice, What don't.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
You like.

Speaker 3 (48:56):
Like how she sounds?

Speaker 1 (48:57):
I think he just doesn't like the singing metal.

Speaker 2 (49:00):
No, but do you not, do you?

Speaker 3 (49:02):
Because I like her voice, so you like how she sounds?
So when the chick from Ginger sings, do you like
how she sounds? Or no? No, you know what, I
just think he doesn't like what are they.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
Ukrainian?

Speaker 2 (49:19):
Ukrainian?

Speaker 3 (49:20):
I just think you just you prefer.

Speaker 1 (49:24):
But we know like a higher register, like we know
you're biased to Ukrainian women because because bakr.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
About it. No, that so hold on, hold on before
we get to that. No, I think, I honestly think
the reason you don't you didn't like Ginger is just
because this sounds like the singing you listen to a
lot more than Ginger does, because Ginger is very Ukraine.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
Very No, she's very's that was gonna say, she's more
of a technical singer, where Courtney sounds more like the
MS exactly exactly.

Speaker 4 (50:00):
I was gonna say that earlier, my dude, her voice
in the idiom would be sicker, and I think that's
what it is. It's but yeah, I was gonna say that,
but I don't want to, like, you know, bring in
the E d M, you know, music to this.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
But yeah, I think that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
That makes sense if I can hear that, because it's relatable.

Speaker 3 (50:21):
If they don't sound like they're gonna be an medium,
he don't want it.

Speaker 1 (50:23):
So so you just don't like Ukrainian female, you don't
like the Ukrainian form of singing.

Speaker 4 (50:31):
I just honestly, the Ginger album it all sounded like
every track sounding almost exactly.

Speaker 1 (50:36):
Yeah, this this is very repetitive. Yeah, this is very different.
This is it is. So we're gonna see if we
can get you back on board. We'll see. I'm gonna.
I'm gonna put my hand out to you, Rudy, and
I'll be like, grab my hand with me if you want.
And you're trying to get on the train, but you're
purposefully slowing down and I'm trying to I'm gonna get
you by the back of the neck like a cat.
I'm gonna pull you in. We're gonna do it, Rudy.

Speaker 2 (50:59):
It's gonna set you on his back and you're gonna.

Speaker 4 (51:02):
Remember the meat Sandwich music video, Remember when is about
to help Jesus get.

Speaker 2 (51:09):
Up what he's reaching and he's like, they all laugh.

Speaker 1 (51:15):
No, you're not fucking doing that. I'm gonna grab you.
We're gonna. I'm gonna force you, Rudy. I am going.
I'm going to force you to like this. I will
force you and try. You can try. It's working. I
feel like I'm being pretty.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
Open clockwork orange style.

Speaker 1 (51:27):
Like I'm enjoying this way more than I enjoyed.

Speaker 2 (51:30):
We're learning, learning, learning about ourselves today, guys therapeutic.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
Women from rain and and and you know what, you
know what earlier you said Rudy was sweet in this
next truck, the fourth truck of them is called keep Sweet.

Speaker 2 (51:45):
Oh oh, I like it.

Speaker 1 (51:51):
Let's keep it sweet.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
Mm hm back to the heavy and I get ah,
this is awesome.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
Beautiful.

Speaker 2 (52:27):
Dead mouse.

Speaker 1 (52:39):
Didn't see that coming. The tambourine is back the tambourine baseline,

(53:32):
by the way, like I.

Speaker 3 (53:35):
Love how Like, okay, so the first verse is very
E d M. Then you know you have the you know,
the rock metal chorus, and then this verse is very
like pop pup like I want to say, like pop Yeah.

Speaker 1 (53:51):
It feels like I'm playing Sonic the Hedghog.

Speaker 2 (53:52):
Yeah, yeah, I like that.

Speaker 3 (53:55):
It's like it's very it's it's it's interchanging.

Speaker 1 (53:57):
I like, I like the loops that just keep it alive.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
Fast?

Speaker 1 (54:04):
Did you keep sweet on this song? Are you not
going to keep Sweet?

Speaker 8 (54:09):
No?

Speaker 2 (54:09):
I dig the the e d ms or you know,
the electronics stuff again, missing the heaviness for the first two.

Speaker 1 (54:20):
But but does it have to be that heavy? Can
it just entered jack? Can it just come and go
like yeah, it's colors like it's all different colors it is.

Speaker 2 (54:29):
And honestly, I didn't listen to past one more track
and then I just stopped because I wanted to check
out By Chapel. I was like, all right, well let
me jump over here still a bit, but yeah, I
was just missing.

Speaker 3 (54:40):
I chose one album, man, I was like, I mean,
listen to this one or this one, White Chapel.

Speaker 1 (54:45):
Listen to the White Chapel like three times.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Nice, I don't need to listen to it.

Speaker 3 (54:53):
I'm going I'm going into the Spirit spear Box blind
like I'm loving. I'm loving when I'm here.

Speaker 4 (54:59):
Okay, I'm pretty much I went in blanks. I guess
I skipped through a quick and I didn't give it
a chance. And I feel like now that we're giving
I'm giving it a chance.

Speaker 1 (55:08):
Are you taking to the metal?

Speaker 4 (55:10):
This song really reminded me a lot of the last
Bring Me the Horizon album, the way the different genres blended.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
It's pretty cool.

Speaker 4 (55:20):
And there's less screaming and that ship like, you know,
it's growls, but it sounds like I almost kind of
don't even consider this like fully metal, you know, kind
of like how we had the discussion about the Bring
Me the Horizon album. Yes, it's definitely metal, but this
is more metal. There's there's a lot more of that
electronic presence you know, yeah, sound too, and that's I

(55:44):
think that's also why I actually enjoy this because I
like electronic music, you know, h It's I don't I'm not.
I'm not thinking of this as metal, to be honest,
but it's I like it.

Speaker 1 (55:53):
This one. This song is probably the one I like
the most so far. So because you guys have been
bitching about them bringing back to heaviness. Spirit Box heard
you guys, and they're bringing back the heaviness. This song
is called soft Spine. This is I think it was
a second single, and when they dropped this single, it was, oh,

(56:14):
this is. This is different for Spearbox because it has
a very corn kind of flow to it that spirit
boxesn't really no sparebox more noal for like complex like
gent stuff or the percussive stuff, not so much noting noding.
This song is just it flows. It's a simple fucking
riff and it's a simple beat. This is actually if

(56:35):
I was to do a top like three spirit Box songs,
this would be probably number two for me. Yeah, so
I did. I did a video for this on TikTok
a couple of times. Actually, it's always songs to send
to your ex because there's a specific The chorus is
like fucking there, and I think that lyrically, this song

(56:56):
takes a very creative approach to maybe like past relationship
hips and stuff like that. It's just fucking pissed off song.
I like so anyways, So right now in our heads,
I want us to all to close our eyes and
think of that dirty ho.

Speaker 2 (57:07):
That is sober.

Speaker 1 (57:08):
You guys aren't gonna dirty dirty ho, Rudy. I can't
tell if your eyes are closed. Your eyes are close, Okay,
think of that dirty ho. And we're gonna play soft spot.
We don't have to keep our eyes close the whole time.

Speaker 2 (57:17):
You put your.

Speaker 1 (57:20):
I want to feel something, my balls in your face.
Here we go, Here we go. That's not at home.
Here we go, Here we go. All right, all right,
let's fucking go. I love fuck those dirty hose.

Speaker 3 (57:52):
I can see the corn.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
All right, let's go. Let's go this part you wipe

(58:29):
your shoes off.

Speaker 3 (58:39):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (58:57):
Now. I'm gonna get to the breakdown in the second.
That chorus is probably my new favorite chorus. Soft spine dissolution,
soft spine setting up to me. I'll read it to
you guys in a minute.

Speaker 2 (59:09):
But this chorus, soft malleable spine.

Speaker 1 (59:12):
Soft spine. I'll do it again on Saturday. Y'all, tot
bit yawn. Get ready for the breakdown, Get ready for

(59:35):
the breakdown. Let's get heavy. Oh there is talking to

(59:58):
your ex low, the your X of them, the the
new dude. Your God will sort you when you die.
I want to read that chorus. I want to read it. Well,
this song came out like two months ago, so the
chorus soft spine A setting up to meet my eyes wide.
I'm a witness to your regicide, the dissolution of your

(01:00:19):
soft spine.

Speaker 3 (01:00:20):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:00:21):
For those of you that didn't take an English class,
a regicide is like the the intentional the murder of
a king. So I'm I've seen what you've done before
because you did it to me. So it's it's very
self aware because saying somebody like this, like one, you
have a soft spine, and just seeing the dissolution of it,

(01:00:41):
it's just like the cherry on top of that, like
do you tell somebody you have a soft spine? What
does that mean? What does that mean? So I don't know,
get that's what it means. This song. When this song
comes on, I fucking I get.

Speaker 2 (01:01:01):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:01:02):
It immediately goes all the way up in my car,
like this is the song that I blast. So I
was so happy that it was song five. So back
to the heavy ship, but more groove oriented.

Speaker 3 (01:01:13):
Fucking especially that fucking like that first part of the
breakdown definitely gave me like straight corn like like I like,
I swear I've heard Corn do that before, and like
the rest of the second part, I was like, oh
this is yeah in general like this song. Yeah, you're right,
I had like corn vibe the ass, but I love it.

Speaker 1 (01:01:34):
Yeah, I have corn up the ass, Corn up the ass.
You love corn up the ass?

Speaker 2 (01:01:39):
Corn?

Speaker 3 (01:01:41):
You know that the dissonance that chords.

Speaker 1 (01:01:43):
They do you know who else likes corn up the ass?

Speaker 2 (01:01:47):
That's true.

Speaker 1 (01:01:48):
What are your thoughts on soft spine?

Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
Uh? Fucking cool man, this is like this is the
last track I heard before I bounced to White Chapels.
But yeah, I was like, oh fuck yeah. Like her approach,
her singing, That's where I started to notice the different
like style like you mentioned, like the shouty more like
fucking in your face. And yeah, that breakdown sick man,

(01:02:12):
God will breakdown got me.

Speaker 1 (01:02:14):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (01:02:15):
It was cool. D Corn what's up, Rudy.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
Are you a witness to her regicide?

Speaker 2 (01:02:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:02:23):
Right, it's the heaviest stuff so far. I feel like
that you played, but I feel like now I already
got used to her other not screaming.

Speaker 1 (01:02:37):
Dude, you can't do you can't do that song way
more than this one.

Speaker 3 (01:02:44):
You can't do that.

Speaker 2 (01:02:45):
That's I didn't see that coming. That was cardball the.

Speaker 1 (01:02:49):
What was the third song? I think it was my
favorite one, the second one. The third song was not
your favorite one.

Speaker 2 (01:02:54):
The second one was the weird static.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
The one that bring me the horizon one. I like
that song the most.

Speaker 2 (01:03:01):
What I think he's talking about the one that sounded
like the fourth one, the fourth one.

Speaker 1 (01:03:05):
The last one we did. That was the last one.
Keep Sweat, Keep Sweet, Keep Sweet. Okay, so you like
keep sweet some of a bitch?

Speaker 2 (01:03:13):
There you go?

Speaker 1 (01:03:14):
All right, Well, I thought you were gonna like this
one a lot more.

Speaker 3 (01:03:16):
But he's forgiving.

Speaker 1 (01:03:18):
I like to keep Sweet one more than this one. Okay, Well,
I I guess, I guess you don't have a soft spine.

Speaker 3 (01:03:26):
Hey, he's forgiving of the vocals.

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
Okay, now that's true for you.

Speaker 1 (01:03:29):
Well, yeah, you guys know that neither of you are
forgiving the vocals right, howde I just singing, and you
guys like don't like it for very forgiving, don't like
she doesn't even say like mus stay out here. They
seem like a girl, I know.

Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
I mean, I'm more open to Corey Courtney the plot
than uh.

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
Everybody knows that, lord bro, I know forgiving?

Speaker 3 (01:04:06):
Sure?

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
What the next track is? The title track? Soon see?

Speaker 3 (01:04:17):
Oh, they're like the heavy s prayer Box. I remember
very genty.

Speaker 2 (01:04:29):
You're genty just a red session?

Speaker 3 (01:04:42):
Did you con amazing?

Speaker 1 (01:05:11):
The background screams, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:05:20):
I like the song a lot, actually, very like it

(01:05:48):
sound like like with the the Out, with the out,
the song title name. It just sounds like she's singing underwater.
It's like very aquatic, and I like that a lot.

Speaker 4 (01:05:58):
Or some ship I don't. I don't know if that's
good or bad. That's an amazing soundtrack, that's a classic,
but it seems very thematic.

Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
The song.

Speaker 4 (01:06:09):
It's like what plays in the movie, exactly like the montage. Yeah,
that goes my boyfriend and he's walking, I can talk
to you anymore? And then the fucking out of no
work in high school.

Speaker 1 (01:06:26):
Hate women.

Speaker 2 (01:06:28):
They need to make that show pronto, Hulu. Get on
it straight.

Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
Sex is so gay to be get on it, to
be good on it. Thoughts on Tsunami SI.

Speaker 2 (01:06:39):
Probably my least favorite track of the album so far,
just because it doesn't have like the electronic presence.

Speaker 1 (01:06:47):
I mean, it's just really ethereal It's very like ambient. No.
I I appreciate that you like the drum loops, you
like the electronica and all that.

Speaker 2 (01:06:57):
Yeah, it's like it hypes you up, like as this
like fucking feeling.

Speaker 3 (01:07:01):
But I feel it's not.

Speaker 2 (01:07:04):
No, it's not a bad one. Considering where it's placed,
like it's it makes sense, like if they're gonna do
this song, like do it right here, Like that's the
perfect place to do it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:14):
This is like the break. This is like the all right, cool,
I can eat my my What do you guys eat
canes like chicken fingers right now? Back in the pit.

Speaker 2 (01:07:23):
Pebbles.

Speaker 1 (01:07:25):
No, I probably know the answer to this already, But Rudy,
I'm begging you to surprise me. I'd be surprised if
you even likes What are your thoughts on?

Speaker 3 (01:07:34):
Honestly, I think Rudy Rudy does. I think he likes
the song.

Speaker 1 (01:07:37):
I think he likes it, he just doesn't want to.
I would tell you the truth, the truth, tell me
the truth. In the beginning, it was.

Speaker 4 (01:07:44):
And it's staying. It was probably the least interesting one
for me. It did make me feel like I was
underwater with fucking the Little Mermaid and.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
A little crustacean, the Red Crustacean.

Speaker 1 (01:07:58):
It did make me feel like I was underwater.

Speaker 4 (01:08:00):
I'm gonna get you on this fucking train. Ready, I'm
gonna have to put some track. Number four I think
was was the Winter so frust speaking uh French.

Speaker 2 (01:08:09):
Ukrainian, French Ukrainian Ukrainian Crustacean.

Speaker 1 (01:08:14):
Is that the bitch? Bo do I need to get
like some thort with us on the train to get
you to come over. We're gonna figure that out. I'm
gonna get you on this fucking train. How many more?
How many more? Why are you bored already? Any more songs?

Speaker 3 (01:08:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:08:33):
We are at one, two, three, four, five five? More? Okay,
so so we still got some time. We still got
a little time. Halfway through the album, This is a
Haven with two Faces sounds like Diablo beautiful.

Speaker 3 (01:09:23):
They sound very shoe Gaizy.

Speaker 2 (01:09:24):
I like it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:25):
Yeah, very deaths.

Speaker 2 (01:09:30):
Oh yeah, oh, I like to.

Speaker 1 (01:10:21):
Say that's cool.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
That the hell your chord disconnect for a second.

Speaker 1 (01:10:36):
Just kidding, all right, So I'll put this out there.
I like the song. It's my least favorite track on
the album right now.

Speaker 2 (01:10:47):
Okay, I'm digging that.

Speaker 1 (01:10:50):
I think I need to be in the mood for
something like this, Like right now, I'm like soft spot,
like I'm jumpy.

Speaker 2 (01:10:55):
And this is like a.

Speaker 3 (01:10:58):
Yeah, like I said, game, you guess to be in
the mood.

Speaker 1 (01:11:01):
This is the lay back you've had a long day.
I mean, suck your dick for five minutes and then
that five minutes into thirty minutes. That's where it's at
right now on the song. I don't know if that
was misogynistic to say, but I love females, I love women,
and I love blow jobs. Drop god, it just feels
like like a long blow job. That's it feels like

(01:11:23):
I'm enjoying it. But you're not in the vibes. No,
you just want to fuck, you know, right now? I
want to lovingly fuck. What are your thoughts on?

Speaker 2 (01:11:35):
Okay? I like the song.

Speaker 3 (01:11:38):
I enjoyed the shoegaze aspect of it a lot. I
know it's a good song, Like I love the heavy,
the you know, the heavy part. It's a good song. Okay,
I have not heard a bad song.

Speaker 1 (01:11:51):
God, I think we've lost Hondre. I feel like we
lost him.

Speaker 2 (01:11:54):
I mean this is a push a tug, you know,
like the little boats going on a way. Just give
a little tug, all right, it's going the right way now,
you know. I don't love it, but it's I like
it better than the previous track.

Speaker 1 (01:12:08):
Wow, that's that's for me.

Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
The previous track is a for me the what is
the word I don't want to say lamus of the
of the album, the least favorite.

Speaker 1 (01:12:18):
Least favorite a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:12:23):
I like it now, never mind, thank you clarifying.

Speaker 1 (01:12:28):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (01:12:31):
So we lost them, Yeah, yeah, definitely, but I'll give
you this the intro to that the guitar was really cool.

Speaker 2 (01:12:39):
It's kind of cool.

Speaker 1 (01:12:40):
Yeah, I liked it a lot. And then and then
she started singing beautiful over over something heavy opened up track.

Speaker 4 (01:12:53):
I understand you're saying shoegaze, and yeah, it makes me
zone out, like I cannot like focus and enjoy this
like completely.

Speaker 1 (01:12:59):
I just kind of like drift off.

Speaker 3 (01:13:00):
Sometimes you just need to drift, drift off.

Speaker 1 (01:13:02):
Rudy, Yeah, but when I listen to music, I want
to enjoy it.

Speaker 3 (01:13:07):
Let it drift off, asleep, drift off and let it
take you somewhere. So I take it a blowjob.

Speaker 1 (01:13:14):
I doubt it. Okay, So because we talked aout the
drum loops and a minute ago, we're gonna take it
back a little bit. We're gonna were gonna try and
ready right now, I got those fucking heart chargers.

Speaker 2 (01:13:29):
What happened? They're still listening to spare Box, the.

Speaker 1 (01:13:33):
Deliverer, Raider, the the Masturbader and clear heart chargers. I'm
going to get you a jump. You're ready to get
click charges?

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
All right? This is three US.

Speaker 8 (01:13:48):
This song is called No Loss, No Love. Oh come on, Ruddy,
I'm not last see.

Speaker 1 (01:14:01):
That talk with your boy job?

Speaker 4 (01:14:20):
Yeah not based dude, Yeah dude, it's like Paul Gray.
I was gonna say that it reminds me of like Iowa, Paul.

Speaker 1 (01:14:39):
Wait.

Speaker 3 (01:14:41):
I was born in an estuary to the sea.

Speaker 2 (01:14:46):
I like this.

Speaker 3 (01:14:48):
I very video game job.

Speaker 1 (01:15:03):
Wait, we're gonna let it get back to the loop.

Speaker 6 (01:15:25):
Jumping fuck.

Speaker 3 (01:15:41):
Nice breakdown?

Speaker 1 (01:15:45):
How did they make that sound? What the aliens COmON
sounds sounds like aliens. Yeah, is that guitared?

Speaker 2 (01:15:53):
Probably like the heavy effect.

Speaker 1 (01:15:55):
Okay, I so I'm gonna let him, let the whole
almost have the whole thing play no, no loss, no love.
I'm gonna start with you, dude. Was this the same band, dude?

Speaker 4 (01:16:06):
Like, because they're fucking talented as fuck. They're very Yeah,
they're very versatile and ship.

Speaker 3 (01:16:11):
Sometimes they just don't like doing the all.

Speaker 1 (01:16:14):
Yeah, they like to like like this is.

Speaker 4 (01:16:17):
I have zero complaints for this song. It's fucking awesome.
Even the little talky part with a little talky part.

Speaker 1 (01:16:25):
Were Yeah, No, that was about at all. It was
very billy Eilish who said that.

Speaker 2 (01:16:32):
Would be me.

Speaker 1 (01:16:32):
Okay, we'll play we'll play a little billy free before
we head out billy billy.

Speaker 3 (01:16:37):
So you're saying, is as long as they're not singing,
you're fine. They can talk, they can yeah, as long
as they don't sing.

Speaker 1 (01:16:45):
In metal.

Speaker 3 (01:16:46):
God damn it.

Speaker 4 (01:16:48):
But I see I can't say that fully because Cradle
Fild has an opera singer and she fucking sings amazing
and it works.

Speaker 1 (01:16:55):
It works.

Speaker 4 (01:16:56):
Like the last song it made me go Mimi's dude,
And this is like this song is a complete opposite.

Speaker 1 (01:17:02):
This is like a wake.

Speaker 3 (01:17:03):
Sometimes I play those songs to go to sleep, just because.

Speaker 2 (01:17:06):
You know what.

Speaker 1 (01:17:06):
I go to sleep to.

Speaker 4 (01:17:11):
Lordie, you go to better Lordie, No, I go to
bet its like fucking heart style hardcore.

Speaker 1 (01:17:16):
I fell asleep to fucking.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Uh thoughts on No Loss No Loves fucking fan fucking
tastic track. I would definitely listen to it again, uh
to get me inspired for writing. I see this as
a tool for that, just thinking about defying ship like that.
Just a mental note for myself. Uh yeah, great song, all.

Speaker 1 (01:17:40):
Right, it's nice. Baji thoughts on No Loss No Love
like it fucking heavy as fuck. Look, I love this
fucking weird fucking like what does that sound? It's like
a computer. I don't know what the fuck it is,
but I love the guitar. But I just don't know
what fucking effect they're using. It's like like a pitch
shift or something. It sounds like a glitch or something like.

(01:18:03):
I think I think it's probably modulated and like they're
recording whatever they recorded. I don't think that they made those.
I think that part of that is probably the pin
shift or pedal, but they definitely fucked with it in posts, yeah, but.

Speaker 3 (01:18:16):
Definitely love them. It's fucking amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:18:18):
I think this is a good example of how production
can be an instrument in the song itself, because like
it's fucking all over the place. All right, we're gonna
get into the next one. We're coming down to the
end of the album. Uh, this one is called Chris
the Ross. Fun fact about this song, this song actually dropped.
I think it was two days ago, two days before
the release of the album, and Courtney got on Twitter

(01:18:39):
and said, I'd never like to release behind the scenes,
behind the current drama. I am legitimately trying to get
my label to take that song down.

Speaker 2 (01:18:46):
Yeah, I saw that this is the song. This was
not supposed to come out because I.

Speaker 1 (01:18:53):
Think when you hear it, see like there's bands that
like look for Defy. So we we went this route
with our album where we purposefully kept Midnight Sun hidden.
I teased it in promoting the album, like there's a
song on the album that's going to kind of surprise
some people because it's a very different song for us.
But it was not going to be one of the

(01:19:14):
first things people heard from the album because I didn't
want people to think, oh, def I is going to
be that bad. Now you had to listen to the
whole album to get to that point to kind of
understand it. Right, So I feel like this was one
of those songs. This song is not meant to be
released because it could probably give people. You guys will
hear it?

Speaker 2 (01:19:32):
Yeah, that's I'm asking in not having heard this portion
of the album.

Speaker 1 (01:19:37):
Like it doesn't fit with the first three singles that
were released, but it fits in the album, if that
makes sense. I think if it was released like when
it was released, probably give people a little bit of
a different idea of what the album was. So this
is Crystal Roses. I think Rudy will like the song.

Speaker 2 (01:19:58):
Oh so.

Speaker 3 (01:20:22):
To the thing, I'm taking.

Speaker 1 (01:20:25):
Sciences. I feel like I'm in the club. Yeah, just

(01:21:38):
so you guys know where it's going that build up

(01:22:01):
mm hmm okay, okay, so I feel like that it's

(01:22:22):
still building up. No, I'll play it's my heart style
a little bit. Yeah, I know, like, Okay, you're waiting
for it. He's waiting for it. Nah, it doesn't go up, dude,

(01:22:44):
that ship, Like, is this.

Speaker 3 (01:22:45):
Where we get him? No?

Speaker 1 (01:22:47):
No, did I really get you? With Crystal Roses.

Speaker 4 (01:22:52):
I like, this is probably the one I like the most,
but it left you fucking wanting more though, like it
never dropped then never, there.

Speaker 1 (01:22:58):
Was never a drop in my opinion, That's how I
feel with Heart Style. Yeah, I was waiting, see I
feel like this.

Speaker 2 (01:23:05):
This was like that.

Speaker 4 (01:23:05):
It was like there was a build up, but it
was like, oh we're getting there. No, no, no, no,
it just never fucking dropped. But like I like the
journey there, but fucking it didn't fucking like, you know,
finish me off.

Speaker 1 (01:23:19):
So did I get you on the train?

Speaker 4 (01:23:21):
I like this, I like this sound. Yes, I like
the sound, Yes, this sound. Yes, I prefer this over
there their metal Ship though Jesus, I'll be honest, I'll
take my wins where I can. Ready, I feel like
we're going to get a different response from you. But
let's let's figure this out together. Let's see what he says, Hondro,

(01:23:44):
what are your thoughts on Crystal Roses.

Speaker 2 (01:23:47):
If they continue this on the next track, I listened,
gonna give it a pass, Like it's like the next
track is like, oh that was this? This will be
having for nothing, Like I want to hear more, is
what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:24:02):
But but you get why she wanted this track pulled.
This is why this is not as this doesn't represent
the album at all. This is this is like a
like a in between kind of song.

Speaker 3 (01:24:14):
This would be like her own personal show.

Speaker 1 (01:24:18):
Yeah, this sounds more like a solo song, but it
still fits in the album when you listen to the
album like how we Are, it fits. But I think
if you were just listening to it on its own,
like and not i've heard anything, or only a couple
of heavy songs, probably wouldn't get it. You have to
kind of listen to the album to get why it
fits in there.

Speaker 2 (01:24:36):
So no, I'm gonna hold my judgment. Like I said,
I want to see where I was like this is
feels like it was a short track too.

Speaker 4 (01:24:44):
Yeah, it's like an interlude. I feel emotion in this one,
but I didn't get that. I fucking you know, like
like we're here, I feel like it's gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (01:24:52):
If this is an interlude, it should have been a
whole song.

Speaker 1 (01:24:54):
You gotta appreciate it's different because they do that a
lot with other songs.

Speaker 2 (01:24:57):
It is like like edging fu, damn dude, We're gonna
blow the load. By the end of the.

Speaker 1 (01:25:07):
Album, your thoughts on Crystal Roses. I like it, you
like I love like that, all right?

Speaker 3 (01:25:14):
I love diversity. Got diversify your funds.

Speaker 1 (01:25:17):
I like diversity too, But I just like my ship
specific way.

Speaker 3 (01:25:23):
That's diversity.

Speaker 1 (01:25:26):
How's that?

Speaker 3 (01:25:26):
No diversity?

Speaker 1 (01:25:27):
If you like your ship a specific wave, you're not
open to other things.

Speaker 3 (01:25:31):
Goddamn it.

Speaker 1 (01:25:33):
I like driving down the same lane. I'm not a
diverse driver because I don't like going to the fast lane,
but I'm diverse.

Speaker 3 (01:25:40):
Lane.

Speaker 1 (01:25:40):
I feel like I'm pretty open to stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:25:42):
You are pretty open.

Speaker 4 (01:25:44):
I think i'd like to consider myself I mean more
than him, Yes, definitely, Yeah, definitely more. I'll give you that,
all right. So we're gonna get to the next song.
This one is called a Ride the Wave.

Speaker 1 (01:25:58):
All ship.

Speaker 3 (01:25:59):
I'm liking I'm loving the dissonance.

Speaker 1 (01:26:11):
Remind to a system of it down.

Speaker 3 (01:26:19):
Speak. It's just.

Speaker 2 (01:26:38):
Gives me massive attack vibes.

Speaker 1 (01:26:40):
Yeah yeah, but dark.

Speaker 3 (01:26:43):
Oh, I'm liking it.

Speaker 1 (01:27:13):
I love that it's darker.

Speaker 3 (01:27:15):
Yeah, It's like, it's definitely has a darker vibe.

Speaker 1 (01:27:18):
Most of the melodics of this album is more ambient
ethereal melodic. This is more on like I'm having a
fucking bad moment. It was like when I quit the challenge,
this is what I was thinking of in my head,
just vibing, even though I didn't hear the song at
that point, but just vivan.

Speaker 2 (01:27:35):
Knew it was coming. I was right in the wave,
the dark way, the dark wave and coming dark wave.

Speaker 3 (01:27:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:27:42):
I like the song.

Speaker 3 (01:27:43):
It's I'm loving the I don't know, like I'm loving
the vibe that that this album is given. H like
this song even though it's like a different vibe than
the rest of them.

Speaker 1 (01:27:54):
Still, to appreciate this song as a Spearbox fan, you
have to know like kind of kill switch right, Like
when I was pointing out, like kill switch doesn't do
this ship right, you have to no kill switch to
get to understand why that why you can appreciate that
spear boxesn't normally they don't have any songs like this.
This is a darker, more melancholic song where most of

(01:28:15):
their music is like what the stuff you guys heard,
more melodic, poppy and this and that, Yes, poppy. She
is poppy. That's right, she's poppy. What is the enother song?

Speaker 3 (01:28:27):
Uh? It felt like it was like it looked like
it was in the middle and it was just like, oh,
right here, I settle filled up. Oh the Year of Breakdowns,

(01:28:51):
that's what this?

Speaker 4 (01:28:52):
Okay, man, the break is youar the breakdown a hundred
thoughts on Ride.

Speaker 1 (01:29:03):
The Wave.

Speaker 2 (01:29:06):
Now here in with the coming off of the previous track,
I was like, all right, cool, they kept that fucking
vibe going. Interesting track. I definitely prefer stuff like this.

Speaker 1 (01:29:19):
This sounds more like a two thousands era kind of
like I can hear that'll rock.

Speaker 2 (01:29:23):
Song, yeah, just with like added fucking gutturals and shouting
that she's doing She's kind of scary man.

Speaker 4 (01:29:33):
That's it was dark, like the darkness likes dark way
different than they're like more uplifting, poppy fucking So, would.

Speaker 1 (01:29:42):
You say that your toes are like on the train,
like you have like one toe on the train at least,
or are you kind of one song g off, I'm
back on, You're back on, But are you back on
like whole foot or just pinky I'm sitting, you're sitting, Okay,
I'm not like, you know, like but like you know,
a couple of songs back I was like.

Speaker 4 (01:30:02):
Off completely, So it's just I guess the way the
way she utilizes her voice, you know, which, she's very
diverse though too so alright, alright, that's talent within itself.

Speaker 3 (01:30:16):
How many songs we're like two away?

Speaker 1 (01:30:18):
We're on the last one is the last one, and
we're going along with the whole ocean vive you know, tsunami.
See right away. This one is called deep End. This
is the closing track.

Speaker 3 (01:30:28):
We're in the nine foot part of the pool.

Speaker 1 (01:30:32):
Twelve the one that you can't swim in. That one, alright,
twelve foot. Here we go. This is deep End. H

(01:31:00):
m hm, that low end. Though I jumped into the ocean, bro.

Speaker 2 (01:31:11):
Out of the train into the ocean.

Speaker 1 (01:31:14):
It's sort of like a dragon Ball super credits.

Speaker 2 (01:31:17):
Yeah, I can say that.

Speaker 1 (01:31:41):
I don't like.

Speaker 3 (01:31:42):
This is fun.

Speaker 1 (01:31:44):
It's a fun song.

Speaker 2 (01:31:46):
No, not yet.

Speaker 1 (01:31:47):
You don't get to ship yet. You don't get to
ship yet.

Speaker 3 (01:31:53):
You hold it.

Speaker 1 (01:31:56):
We're still on the train. That's a sick beach. It

(01:32:19):
is okay, all right, hold on right out right now.
You're like a kid. I'm taking you off the train,
and after you've complained for about the last hour on

(01:32:40):
this trip and you were told you cannot ship on
the train, I'm walking into the public bathroom right now,
so you can ship on public pistel on urinals. And
I'm yelling at you, like and this is why I
told you this ship before you came you got on
the train, I told you a ship. When we're at home.
So I'm walking you to the public cristroom right now.
So while we're walking you, you mom walking you, and

(01:33:01):
I'm yelling at you while you've complained for an hour. Uh,
they get to speaking, well hold on, hold on, you
tighten that butthole and you hold it, god damn it
until we get to the restroom. Baji thoughts on ten
as a song. I like it.

Speaker 3 (01:33:21):
I do like the song as a finisher. I don't know,
Like I was like, like, you can't. I don't like,
you can't start the album off fucking heavy and then
and like if there was like a heavy breakdown or
something in this song, I would appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (01:33:41):
But I don't know, like, let me show you something
real quick. Well, we'll let me show you what I
but it's just like there's no breakdown of the song.

Speaker 2 (01:33:52):
Yeah. Like, but I like the song.

Speaker 3 (01:33:56):
It's a song, very poppy, pop punky for me of it.
But I just don't think it's I don't think it's
a good closer for the album, but I still like
the song, just I don't think it's a good closure.

Speaker 1 (01:34:10):
Dare I ask or shall I perish.

Speaker 2 (01:34:13):
That all you were rattling your fucking gums around or.

Speaker 1 (01:34:16):
Listen to your little sissy boy? You come here talking
to stone Cold Steve Olfson. God damn it, it's so good.
God say you lot because of what you tell me?

Speaker 3 (01:34:26):
How a ticket? What?

Speaker 1 (01:34:29):
Stone Cold?

Speaker 2 (01:34:29):
Say?

Speaker 1 (01:34:30):
What? What?

Speaker 2 (01:34:31):
I was like the last era of like stone Cold?
I was like, man, what do they do to my boy?

Speaker 1 (01:34:37):
One beer? What? Two beer?

Speaker 2 (01:34:39):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:34:41):
I'm done? I'm done?

Speaker 2 (01:34:43):
But I didn't like it. Not it was I was like,
I don't think I would have like closing with this,
but I don't know the rest of the album was
like good this track and then what what was it like?
Track number.

Speaker 1 (01:35:01):
Yeah? Right, I have been with two Faces.

Speaker 3 (01:35:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:35:04):
I think those are like the lowest of the album
for me. But I mean that's not a bad thing
considering we're at the end.

Speaker 1 (01:35:12):
We're at the deep end, now, deep end, So we'll
get to the last thoughts. Okay, I'm handing your toilet
paper and I'm here you go. You always got a
ship everywhere we go. I take it a target, you
gotta ship. I take it a Costco, you gotta ship.
Fucking ship.

Speaker 4 (01:35:27):
Hey, I was on the train the last song alright,
this song, yeah, take this is where I get off,
take your ship, and this is the song that would
play while you're getting off the train too. This is
it's I'll give it this. It definitely seems like an
outro song for me. But I don't know, man, like

(01:35:50):
I get what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (01:35:52):
I just.

Speaker 1 (01:35:54):
So right, it's not right now.

Speaker 4 (01:35:56):
This song made me feel like I was walking in
a fucking garden and a little but flies are around
me and ship.

Speaker 1 (01:36:01):
I don't want to feel that. Well, okay, right now,
right now, because I.

Speaker 2 (01:36:07):
Like that honesty, I like it.

Speaker 1 (01:36:09):
I'm gonna tell you where I met with Rudy right now, right.
I said, Rudy, God damn, you ship like a man.
You shood like a grown man. And I leave him
in the stall and I get on the train and
I go to my seat and there's a window right there,
and I see poor Rudy running, Little Rudy running up
to with his pants. Wait for me, wait for me.
I'm just to the song to the song, I'm just like.

Speaker 2 (01:36:32):
After the credits start rolling, He's liken.

Speaker 4 (01:36:37):
It also also kind of this song reminds me like
a an American version of baby Metal.

Speaker 3 (01:36:43):
You're no it does.

Speaker 4 (01:36:46):
It's on that poppy, poppiness, fucking anime level. It reminds
you like anime music.

Speaker 2 (01:36:53):
He did kind of say that.

Speaker 1 (01:36:54):
Okay, huh okay.

Speaker 2 (01:36:57):
Tony did say it felt like a dragon ball outro.

Speaker 1 (01:37:00):
I can see that my words against me just confirming
to say this. Okay, so so all right, bet al right.
Overall thoughts and rating, well, we'll go with with Boji
Bogie go ahead.

Speaker 3 (01:37:21):
Wow, it's like a seven or like I'm going for
like a seven and a half because it's like, like
I there are some like the heavy ship I fucking
love like some and some of the like easier lighter
stuff I do also love. It's just I don't know,
I feel like like like it was missing something for sure.

(01:37:44):
I just can't put my finger on what it was missing,
but it was just something was missing.

Speaker 1 (01:37:47):
But I do it.

Speaker 3 (01:37:48):
I did enjoy the album hearing it, like just you know,
first time hearing it. I did enjoy that. I did
enjoy the album a lot. I had some good memory
of songs. Like I said, some songs were but I
mean I think it like those men out like out
of all the good songs you know, they covered.

Speaker 4 (01:38:07):
For that coo cool, our resident elitists, take your throne
and give us your weird rating system.

Speaker 1 (01:38:18):
Of we gotta get you a chart. We're gonna get
you big chart.

Speaker 2 (01:38:23):
And where in the chart is.

Speaker 3 (01:38:25):
I don't think he would understand.

Speaker 1 (01:38:26):
He doesn't understand his fucking rating, and chart.

Speaker 2 (01:38:28):
Would be too complex. It would be like past geometry,
which I never passed.

Speaker 1 (01:38:33):
What's writing good?

Speaker 2 (01:38:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:38:35):
I feld seven point?

Speaker 3 (01:38:37):
What what triangle?

Speaker 2 (01:38:40):
Okay? So I just in order to review this album,
I need to go back to my previous reviews that
I gave in I remember I gave it eight point two.
I want to bring those back down ten points, so
negative ten points on the previous album that goes for
kill Switch and Ginger. Now this album, trust me, it's
between one. It's very complicated. So I wanted to bring

(01:39:04):
those back down because I feel like I want to
give this one a certain rating, but those other albums
shy to this album.

Speaker 1 (01:39:11):
No, I'm not gonna let you do that. No, you
have to rate it. You have to fucking no, I'm
going to give it a rating. Look at me, don't
do this. You rate it according to your own criteria.
From the last albums, this has met all lore.

Speaker 2 (01:39:28):
So I would give this one a eight point two.

Speaker 3 (01:39:33):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:39:34):
The soft stuff that I usually do not fall for
in spare Box previous with the exception of that EP,
which I was not aware of it, and it sounded interesting. Yeah,
I like what they're fucking with. And I'm definitely dealing
feeling the electronics and the you know, the the vibing

(01:39:55):
that was going on in this album, and so that
that's my review, right, and all the soft stuff. The
heavy stuff was cool. When it was heavy, it was
fucking dope. Track number two is probably still my favorite.
That and the track before the last one, those are
kind of standouts. So yeah, I was surprised, got it,

(01:40:16):
really surprised.

Speaker 1 (01:40:17):
So at the end we'll say, like our standout, like
number one track that we think is like the standout track.

Speaker 2 (01:40:24):
Yeah, all eyes on me. Rating.

Speaker 1 (01:40:33):
You could do a point system if you like, but
I think at this point we just threw our hands
in the air.

Speaker 4 (01:40:37):
It wasn't it was not a bad album whatsoever. It
wasn't like not not enjoyable. It was definitely something I
wasn't expecting. Like some of the ship I really wasn't expecting.
Uh so I would give it like a seven.

Speaker 1 (01:40:54):
So that's higher than I thought you weren't given. It
was like I said, it wasn't bad, it's just it's
not my thing.

Speaker 4 (01:41:00):
Yeah, it's I mean, there was like maybe three songs
that I could think that I actually like stood out
to me and were memorable. One because it left me
wanting more. That fucking drop never happened. Yeah, I don't
know if you like talk about the other ones already,
but yeah, like the dark one that that dark sounding
song was really cool. And track four I believe was

(01:41:23):
the one that got me, the one that keeps sweeping. Yeah,
keep sweeting that one. So I guess I like their
electronic sound more than their actual metal sound. I lean
more towards that. So you do like female singers singing
and metal? Then no, the electronic electronics still metal dude? Okay,
well then yeah, then I guess, but I did like

(01:41:44):
the more electronic.

Speaker 2 (01:41:45):
Am got him? I got him, got him?

Speaker 1 (01:41:49):
Good game, Good game. Welcome to spearbox fandom. No no,
you're good. I will tell you the truth. I will
probably never listen to this album again. You will, well,
we're we're all driving together when we go on BLD trips,
So yes, okay, and I guarantee you with me and
Brandon in the car, you will be listening to the spirit.

Speaker 4 (01:42:09):
Bye bye what is it? Bye bye mee by me
like me personally picking this up, like searching it.

Speaker 1 (01:42:16):
Still canna listen to it? Yeah, I'll listen to it,
but not by a choice. And when you watch my
Instagram stories, you make all the songs no more to find,
the tyrant songs and all spirit Box songs. I'm gonna
give this album a A seven point five. I love

(01:42:38):
the heavy songs, the heavy songs where the stand out
to me what I what this album didn't have that
the first song had. And it's probably because I've lived
I lived with the first album, at least half the
first album for like two years before it even came out,
because those songs were dropped throughout a two year period.
And then I've lived with the first album for so long.
It's a little difficult to see if all take to

(01:43:00):
this album the same. I appreciate that it's a darker album.
It's a greaterier production. So it is different from the
first album, which I do enjoy it, I appreciate, But
the first album had more memorable moments for me, Circle
with Circle with Me so like my favorite metal song,
and has like those big moments, and all their songs
Holy Roller, Sung Killer, they'll have like these moments, and

(01:43:22):
they'll have like memorable sections, very thematic, very cinematic sections.
This album didn't really have that. This album felt more
like metal but like you're like at a goth club,
kind of like I had that vibe, which is cool.
It's kind of the first album was like Avengers in
Finnity War, and this album was more like The Crow.
It's like a little lower scale, like a little lower

(01:43:43):
skille Sa Crow like more like the Crow like that
it has, it has like the Crow vibe. It's very
darker grady. But what I'm saying is like, I don't
you know, Avengers Infinity War has way more memorable moments
than The Crow does. And that's not because The Crows
and as good. It's because The Crows a smaller movie
and because it doesn't have those moments that pop. It's

(01:44:03):
a very dramatic the movie flows at a certain wave.
When you think of the Crow, you can think of
the story, but when you think of Vinny were Spider
Man meaning doctor Strange, you know, Irony Man, you know,
fighting Thanos. Like, there's so many more specific moments.

Speaker 2 (01:44:16):
A lot more going on.

Speaker 1 (01:44:17):
There's a lot more going on, and I feel like
that's what the first album was for me. There's a
lot more going on, and this album is like that.
The song just flows. It just there's nothing really popping
out too much.

Speaker 2 (01:44:27):
I just, you know, I just say it's a safe
no album.

Speaker 1 (01:44:31):
I think it's a ballsy album. Like I think that
a lot of their fans were expecting the first album.
I don't think a lot of their fans were expecting
a darker, grittier album, and I think I appreciate that
a lot too. So I give it seven point five.
It might come up to like an AA point five.
It depends on how I go listen listening to this album,

(01:44:54):
how much I ref that's what I want.

Speaker 2 (01:44:55):
To do with it, is like listen to it again
and kind of like dissect it in my car.

Speaker 1 (01:44:58):
Yeah, because I've played the first Spearbox album almost every
week since it's come out, like it's just about maybe
every couple of weeks I'll play it. But those songs
I constantly go back to. I'm always going back to
that album. I don't know yet for this album. You
know it's gonna take some time. Stand out. The standout
song for me would be Black Rainbow. It's the second

(01:45:20):
track that to me. When I heard, I was like,
this is the fucking bang. This is the best song
on the album in my opinion. Great Soft Spine was
my favorite, but I think I'm gonna go with Black
Rainbow on this one. If you guys need me to
find a song.

Speaker 3 (01:45:35):
Let me know the corn.

Speaker 1 (01:45:37):
The corn one is Soft Spine.

Speaker 2 (01:45:39):
I like that one.

Speaker 1 (01:45:39):
Yeah, okay, uh honey.

Speaker 2 (01:45:44):
Dark Rainbow. So you said black Rainbow, Black Rainbow, Black Rainbow,
Black Raybolt, Dark Rainbow. That's my fucking favorite one. That's
the one static X vibes fucking put a smile on
my face.

Speaker 1 (01:45:55):
Rudy. Uh, it was like too cute or some ship
keep sweet sweet sweet? Okay, then got smart as what's
my favorite one? That doesn't matter, I'm never gonna hear
it again. No, I'm telling you that that's the one
I like. Too cute, all right, so that is our
that is our rating for this. So I say this

(01:46:15):
album gets a Metaology approval. You gonna get the album
the thumbs up, right, thumbs up, thumbs up? All right,
I think you get so much for tuning in this episode.

are enjoying these album reviews. It's kind of like a
newer thing we're doing and we're just kind of dropping
a grid of them.

Speaker 3 (01:46:32):
But to be honest, it just was not planned. This
one was planned, but there were just a couple of
albums just dropping out of nowhere.

Speaker 1 (01:46:41):

you know, melodic and a little bit of just fucking
death metal. So yeah, that's mine. What is yours? Uh?

Mine would be Fox Skip the Lies. I think that
song is aging a lot better from mer right now. Yeah,
