This episode originally aired on September 7, 2023. On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got a pair of musicians who create with an air of mystery, but who have a fantastically straightforward chat here: Ethel Cain and Adam McIlwee. Ethel Cain is a character created by Hayden Anhedonia, though one that's been sort of all-consuming. Anhedonia began releasing music under the name in 2019, finding her sound and her vibe over the next couple of years before releasing the absolutely epic Preacher's Daughter in May of 2022. The album, a concept collection about the life and ultimate demise of Ethel Cain, skillfully moves through sounds from a sort of Gothic Americana to slowcore to ambient sounds to who knows what, exactly, other than it's thoroughly engaging. The album was pretty quickly hailed as a masterful debut, and Cain found herself not only the darling of the music world, but with some prominent modeling gigs as well. As you'll hear in this chat, though, the spotlight has gotten a little bit bright for her taste lately. She's currently on the European festival circuit, though she'll head back to the States in October for sold-out shows at really interesting venues. Check out “Crush” right here. Cain and today's other guest, Adam McIlwee, go way back. He was an early supporter of her music, and appears on her Inbred EP under his most prominent alias, Wicca Phase Springs Eternal. Though he started his musical journey as part of the pop-punkish band Tigers Jaw, he's moved in a dozen other directions since. He founded the emo-rap collective GothBoiClique back in 2012, which briefly counted Lil Peep among its members. As Wicca Phase, though, McIlwee combines synth-pop with more acoustic sounds and more hammering beats, depending on the track. His latest release under the name is self-titled, and it just came out in June. It's well worth checking out. In fact, check out “Moving Without Movement” right here. Now for two people who've created such interesting mystiques, this is a refreshingly down-to-earth conversation in which they talk about trying to carve out space as middle-class musicians who don't expect to conquer the charts with their music—but who'd love to be able to make a decent living at it. They talk about what to do when you hit a touring wall—this chat took place not long after Cain fainted onstage in Australia—and how great Vicks Steam Inhalers are for singers. Hey Vicks, you might have a couple of spokespeople here if you play your cards right. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Hayden Anhedonia aka.

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Ricky Hil. As the son of famed designer Tommy Hilfiger, Hil has been tasked to carve out his own space within music and culture. He turned to emo rap in the 2010s, creating a murky sound that helped to influence GothBoiClique — namely Lil Peep. The duo even made a couple of songs together, which remain unreleased. In a conversation with Madden, the rapper explores his lifelong relationship with music and fashion, the complex process of self-realization, and the work ethic he learned from his father. Listen to their conversation on Artist Friendly wherever you listen to podcasts.

While a lot of people focus on Christmas, Valentine's Day and New Year's Eve, we really believe that Halloween is an undersurface time of year for folks to enjoy original content. I was always a fan of ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’ and ‘Nightmare Before Christmas,’ and we believe we're creating an evergreen franchise that will allow us to unlock new stories every year with original music, possibly ending up in the realm of live or visual content. Machine Gun Kelly was an extremely logical and obvious partner for us. His brand pairs well with the season.”https://www.danadentata.com/https://www.instagram.com/danadentata/?hl=enhttps://twitter.com/danadentata?lang=enhttps://www.facebook.com/danadentata/We want to hear from you!

Your hosts this episode: Patrique OptimalAudio Kittenpuke In this episode your hosts our joined by the podcast's producer Kittenpuke (Hello) to discuss the musical career and legacy of Emo Rap icon Lil Peep. They discuss his early days as a member of Schemaposse and his already near honed sound of melding Emo Pop / Emo tropes with Hip Hop, his future more mainstream oriented mixtapes in his mid-career of joining the Gothboiclique and teaming with partner in crime Lil Tracy and his later and posthumous sounds of a near full conversion into pure 2000's Emo sound. How has Lil Peep affected the current state of the rap scene as well as the Emo Rap scene that he helped create in the first play with the rest of the GBC, what does Peep do right that his copycats don't and how did many (including your hosts) make mistakes regarding how to first handle Peep unique lyricism and emotional dynamics and come to understand it only post-his death and with the hindsight of 20-20 and a better understanding of rapper's current daily struggles regarding drug abuse? Along the way the trio get into all kinds of offhand side tangents. Whether it be the return of Pat rambling about Hamilton, on the topic of recently released rapper Ruben Slikk, the new Taylor Swift album "Folklore", or a back and forth discussion between Pat and Optimal about Scorsese films. It's a jam packed episode sure to tug at the heart strings but bring the laughs along the way.

#gothboiclique #wiccaphasespringseternal #fantasycamp Me filming and uploaded with Wicca Phase permission. Was honored to be invited out to Wicca’s live show and chill backstage with him and Smrtdeath and Fantasy Camp in April 2019. These guys are super nice in person. Wicca has promoted Esoteric Hollywood for me and I am grateful so I want to return the favor. We filmed a cool in-person interview which I’ll upload later, but was doubly honored when he asked me onstage and shouted out JaysAnalysis. I’m filming. Enjoy!
