Life of the Record
The Making of THEY WANT MY SOUL by Spoon - featuring Britt Daniel, Jim Eno and Alex Fischel

Life of the Record

For the 10th anniversary of Spoon's 8th full-length album, They Want My Soul, we take a detailed look at how it was made. After Spoon concluded their remarkable run of records in the early 2000s with 2010's Transference, they took a much needed break. During this time, Britt Daniel formed Divine Fits with Dan Boeckner, while Jim Eno produced records for other artists. When Spoon got back together, they added new member Alex Fischel on keyboards and opted to work with producers Joe Chiccarelli and Dave Fridmann for the first time. Having that time apart gave them a new perspective on the band as they worked to expand the sound, incorporating more keyboards, hip hop and electronic influences and unique production approaches. The result was They Want My Soul, eventually released in 2014. In this episode, Britt Daniel describes how he approached songwriting for this album and how he wanted to move away from the “minimalist” label that the band had been given previously. By demoing the songs in a variety of different ways, he describes how the songs evolved in the studio and how producers Joe Chiccarelli and Dave Fridmann helped shape them. Jim Eno talks about the sense of fun that the band had with this record and how they were enjoying trying new approaches, while recommitting to making good music together. Additionally, Alex Fischel describes first being asked to join Divine Fits and how that transitioned into a role in Spoon. With Fischel brought in to the band and with Fridmann's fingerprints all over the record, they describe how the sound of this album led to the next era of Spoon. From recording in two halves and switching producers midway to Dave Fridmann's mad scientist approach to mixing to the influence of Dr. Dre's 2001 album on “Inside Out” to the spontaneous last minute recordings of “Rent I Pay” and “I Just Don't Understand,” we'll hear the stories of how the record came together.

We record the show with three different audio tracks which are done locally & then uploaded to Streamyard's cloud which allows me to modify the tracks to balance out each track's volume & equalization to maximize the friendliest sounds for your tender ears. Steve's audio file didn't save because he disconnected too soon or something (I check out early on this episode) so I had to clip the audio second by second from each time Luke & I were talking in proximity to Steve's voice. It took too long. I finally said screw it. I just uploaded the single track of all three voices at once. I don't know if it sucks or not. It's quarter to 4 in the morning & I'm toast.

Editor’s note: I wish to do this episode justice because not merely because it is a monument that glorifies the worst the world has to offer. Not merely because, despite the empty phrase-mongering of “Never Again”, this monument glorifies people who perpetuated the worst of the holocaust. In fact, some of the people for whom there are monuments in the “tribute to liberty” were so brutal that members of the Gestapo wrote to Himmler telling him how horrified they were. None of this should have happened. The real horror hit me after I used Yandex to do a Russian-language name search of Roman Shukheyvich. My roommate heard me scream when I saw the first image of his horror. I cannot post the image because it is too horrific, but I will post a monument to the victims of this horror. No one should have been able to raise enough of a lobby to get the government of Canada to fund the “Tribute to Liberty” and after the truth came out, they should not have been able to, so brazenly, in public raise enough money to build the memorial anyways. Thanks to my adhd, where I am extremely bad at estimating the time it takes to do certain tasks such as build a guide to all those who are memorialized in the Tribute to Liberty monument, the release of this episode kept on getting delayed. I finally realized that the reason why Canadians “ignorantly” commemorated complete monsters is because most westerners aren’t taught about World War 2 in its fullest.There is a logical reason why any capitalist, imperialist country would not want to teach their people about the economics of fascism. Coupled with this ignorance of the economics of fascism, in order to make the west’s actions seem justifiable in the cold war, the eastern campaign is fully ignored. Now, people will never be able to draw the obvious connection between “anti-communist exiles” and “pro-democracy dissidents” and genocidal Nazis. However, there are a lot of bricks in this monument and it cannot be all accomplished in a day. However, I believe these bricks do tell us a lot about the US, Canada, and their actions in the past 100 years and who they consider allies and why. The month of December will be dedicated to exposing the true nature of as many brings and monuments as possible with our “Featured Victims of Communism”Show notes00:45 - Dan introduces himself and explains how he became involved in Canadian politics.02:00 - Dan talks about his rock band04:00 - Dan and Esha discuss all the wild accusations on twitter about being funded by “Putin/Assad” (we wish).5:39 - Chrystia Freeland 7:00 - The Newspapers role in enticing Young Ukrainians to join the Waffen SS.Click here for a scanned copy of the newspaper.

Dan Boeckner of Operators and Wolf Parade and co-host of The Bottlemen podcast returns to Junk Filter for an episode about one of the great underseen films of the eighties, Ivan Passer's 1981 California neo-noir Cutter's Way, based on the crime novel Cutter and Bone by Newton Thornburg. One rainy night in Santa Barbara, Richard Bone (Jeff Bridges) witnesses a man dumping the corpse of a young girl; when he later recognizes a local captain of industry as the man who could be the culprit, his unhinged and physically shattered Vietnam veteran buddy Alex Cutter (John Heard) takes this ball and runs with it, launching an ill-advised blackmail scheme against the tycoon. Dan and I discuss the joys of what we'd call the Ambient Mystery genre, this film's relationship not only to the seventies paranoia genre but also to The Big Lebowski, the brilliant performances from two actors who should have had bigger careers (John Heard and Lisa Eichhorn), how Cutter's Way was mishandled by United Artists on the way to becoming a cult classic, and how we are all Alex Cutter now.

She was deeply depressed beforehand, and found some relief – as others around her were also forced to slow down (3:20)Dr. Dominique talks about how the pandemic has shifted her practice and the increased demand of patients looking for professional counselling (7:00)Ronan talks about how he prefers to microdose – and his experience of reliving a childhood memory during a heroic dose last year (10:00)Dan talks about his first experiences with psychedelics – including ‘dirty biker acid’ ­– starting at the age of 15. Growing up in a small community on Vancouver island – Dan acknowledges the desire to ‘travel without travelling’ and a ‘need to escape’ drove this behaviour (13:17)Dan and Devokja talk about their recent psilocybin trip. While observing bugs on a log, Dan realizes ‘it’s their house, man’.(15:34)Dr. Dominique discusses typical themes she’s seen – and how patients using psychedelic-assisted therapy can yield profound personal impacts. And consider that it’s also a connected experience – not necessarily an individual one. Plus she encourages us to look for opportunities to integrate personal realizations (16:50)Dan talks about their latest album ‘Radiant Dawn’ and working closely with Devojka on the record was a unique experience. For him, the act of performing on stage, gives him emotional catharsis. On psychedelics, he feels interconnected and can process facts that are exposed to him. A fantastical wonder. (21:20)Devojka talks about being a product of the D.A.R.E program and her first trip – or lack thereof. (24:30)Dan talks about the appeal of psychedelics, and Devojka talks about how her point of view on psychedelics started to shift with microdosing (28:10)Dr. Dominique encourages us to accept the trip that you need – not the one that you want. And understand that no one experience will be the same as the next. Her advice: trust, let go, and walk towards it. Set and setting are very important (34:36)Dan talks about his trip from a few days prior – where he realized that the psychedelic renaissance needs to be contextualized historically (36:40)Ronan asks who do Dan and Devojka think could use a good trip – and Ronan suggests their next album title (42:20)

Over the past 15 years, Dan Boeckner has become a well-known fixture of the North American indie-rock scene. As one of the main members of Wolf Parade, Operators, Divine Fits, and the now-defunct Handsome Furs, he shows no signs of slowing down with new Operators and Wolf Parade albums set for release this year. We caught up with Dan before the sold-out Operators Presents Handsome Furs show to discuss the personal and technical logistics of performing Handsome Furs material live, being bullied as a young teenager on Vancouver Island, and the surprising merits of Netflix's Riverdale and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

We've got a pair of artist interviews for you this week, and once again, they come from opposite ends of the sonic spectrum. Having devoted the past few years to her acting career, appearing in shows like Travelers and Hell on Wheels, Mackenzie Porter has returned to music with her first new songs since her JUNO and CCMA-nominated 2014 debut. Speaking with Mike, Mackenzie talks about juggling her acting and music careers, writing in Nashville, why her 2018 release strategies are different than those from 2014, how streaming has impacted the film and music industries differently, and a lot more. Then, Andrew catches up with Dan Boeckner, frontman for heralded acts like Operators and Wolf Parade. Operators are about to perform a pair of sold-out shows in New York and Toronto comprised of tunes from one of Dan's other critically adored projects, Handsome Furs. He talks about the process of choosing an ultimate Furs set list, how it feels to revisit and dissect some of those songs, and how he compartmentalizes his creative process considering the various projects and collaborations he's involved with.

After a five-year hiatus, Wolf Parade released the new album "Cry Cry Cry" last fall. The Montreal quartet -- led by the songwriting duo of Dan Boeckner and Spencer Krug -- picks up right where it left off with a collection songs of featuring mystifying lyrics and uptempo rock rhythms. Wolf Parade stopped into the CPR Performance Studio before a concert at the Ogden Theatre. The members played four songs from "Cry Cry Cry" and spoke with Alisha Sweeney about the band's growth since reuniting in 2016, how they wrote Wolf Parade songs during the hiatus and how the indie rock music industry has changed since the band's early days.

Dan Boeckner puts most indie musicians to shame as far as his energy and sheer output. The Canadian musician co-founded the pioneering indie band Wolf Parade, fronted Handsome Furs and collaborated with Spoon's Britt Daniel in Divine Fits. Now, he leads the new band Operators. The band played at OpenAir on the release day of its debut album, "Blue Wave." The record is a continuation of the synthesizer-driven sounds of Handsome Furs with contributions of drummer Sam Brown and keyboardist Devojka.

Indie icon Dan Boeckner is perhaps best known for his role in the legendary mid-2000s post-punk indie rock band Wolf Parade. Since Wolf Parade (sadly) went on hiatus, Boeckner was involved in a project called Divine Fits (with Spoon frontman Britt Daniel) and he started Handsome Furs (with his ex-wife Alexei Perry). Currently, Boeckner has a new band called Operators. Last Gang Records will release the Operators debut full length, Blue Wave, on April 1, 2016. I chatted with the entire Operators line up including Boeckner (on vocals, guitar, and synths), drummer Sam Brown (New Bomb Turks and Divine Fits) and electro-wiz Devojka. Somehow I get this trio to talk about everything including Louis CK, using sex to sell, how Dan and Sam met, being a complete dick, Dave from Japandroids, how collaboration works in Operators, and the beauty of starting over again. I think this is the only interview I've done with a group hug. You'll have to listen.
