Sometimes life happens… and sometimes death happens. Everyone in the rock world was shocked to hear of Taylor Hawkins's untimely passing on March 25, 2022. We didn't know the man, but certainly thought a lot of him as a phenomenal musician who really was the driving force behind the Foo Fighters as well as modern rock n' roll in general. From videos and documentaries, he seemed like a really cool guy and sweet dude. This week we pay tribute to the smilin' heavy hitter and a hell of a singer, the only way we know how, by not playing a single note from the Foo Fighters. New to InObscuria? It's all about digging up obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal from one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. In this episode, we will focus on Taylor's solo material, guest appearances, and side projects. If there is one positive thing to come from this sadness, it would be that all of his great music gets the exposure it deserves.Songs this week include:Dave Grohl & Taylor Hawkins – “2112 Overture” from RUSH, Rock Hall Induction Ceremony (2013)Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders – “Shapes Of Things” from Get The Money (2019)Brian May – “Cyborg” from Another World (1998)Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders – “Louise” from Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders(2006)Coheed & Cambria – “No World For Tomorrow” from Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume Two: No World for Tomorrow(2007)Taylor Hawkins – “Southern Belles” from Kota (2016)The Birds Of Satan – “Wait Til Tomorrow” from The Birds Of Satan (2014)Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders – “Don't Have To Speak” from Red Light Fever(2010)Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://twitter.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/InObscuria?asc=uCheck out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/

In modern terms 2020 has been a year to forget for the majority of people on Mother Earth, as people's basic privileges continue to be stripped to a bare minimum there is a flow of thoughts for each individual that is theirs and their own. This era has and will continue to define us as a species individually and as a whole! What does it mean to “exist” at present? Well let's hear one mans personal story right here and right now! Enter Greg Puciato, a man that needs no introduction with a musical resume literally longer than his arms! A man who fronted (and survived) The Dillinger Escape Plan for 16 years, A man who continues to be a part of a very special group of humans in Killer Be Killed and of course the eclectic electro pop group The Black Queen. As Greg celebrated his 40th year on Earth earlier this year a very specific goal was reached for this seasoned veteran of musical expertise! The completion of Child Soldier: Creator of God which is his debut solo album. An album that had “no limitation what so ever” in its creation and wasn't so much of an ending to a chapter but more a beginning “You know if you're gonna make a solo record then why leave anything off the table? Why limit yourself? The point of a solo record is to create, I look at it if you're a film maker and you've got an ability to make a personal small indie film that's closer you rather than making like a big budget movie of some sort it's like that's where you make this weird thing that's deeply personal that goes all over the place and might be a bit more art-house than like a blockbuster movie” It's impossible to place Greg's back catalogue of musical projects into one genre in fact it would be an insult to even pigeon hole his artistic layering's at all. The guy is diverse and makes no bones about it, this has never been more the case than with Child Soldier: Creator of God which from start to finish offers many sides of a man who has managed to create moods through his music. “It's pretty much me as a person I have a lot extremities, I have problems with what people call push pull dynamics it's like I really want people close to me but then I don't want them close to me” Greg then added “So when I listen to record here's this beautiful beginning and then I'm like get the fuck away from me and I make it really hard for people and then I'll lure you in because you're gonna think this guy's real sensitive and weird and interesting and then you're gonna be like of shit I gotta get out of here and then you get on the other side of that and then there will be kinder a mix of those two things”.When it came to recording drums for the album Chris Hornbrook (ex Poison the Well), Chris Pennie (ex Dillinger Escape Plan/ Coheed and Cambria) and of course Ben Koller (Killer Be Killed/ Converge/ Mutoid Man) were all seated at their respective thrones on individual tracks, this was never seen as “head hunting some dude that I don't know or I hope this guy will say yes but more like man that's my buddy and it has a different feel to me”, this making for a more personal element to the debut. Be sure to listen out for how the track with Ben Koller came about and how Greg's friendship with Chris Pennie was rejuvenated through the power of music after Chris's not so pleasant departure from The Dillinger Escape Plan all those years ago! Ohh yeah… one more thing…..whilst reminiscing about memories of live shows with Greg Puciato a burning question had to be asked, it being a simple but direct one at that; “what is the craziest thing you have seen at a live show on or off the stage?”……. The answer was everything I'd thought it would be a soooooo much more, seriously what a crazy world we live in!

Drummer Chris Hornbrook talks about the history of Poison the Well starting out in the late 90's and some of the bands they played with, looking up to Chris Pennie and Ken Schalk’s drumming, the challenges of touring in the winter as a band from south Florida, working with a Swedish production super-team on two of their records vs working with Steve Evetts on The Tropic Rot, his work with Big Black Delta & Dhani Harrison, navigating the hired gun/session drummer world, and his experience recording with D.E.P. vocalist Greg Puciato on his new solo record due out Oct 23rd! http://www.chrishornbrook.com/
