Podcast appearances and mentions of Matt Pike

The ancient temple of Stonehenge is one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world and one of the most visited sites in the UK.    Yet, despite hundreds of years of archaeological investigation and speculation, to some extent it remains a mystery. And it is a mystery that is deep at the heart of the British psyche, for Stonehenge has been a gathering place for thousands of years, and remains a nexus where prehistoric culture, mainstream culture and counterculture interact - and sometimes collide.    40 years ago, in June 1985, an incident occurred near Stonehenge that saw the largest mass arrest of civilians in Britain's history. Over 1000 police, many in riot gear, some with their IDs covered so they couldn't be held accountable for what happened, clashed with a raggle-taggle convoy of travellers, hippies and bohemian folk heading towards the Stones to hold the free Festival, which had happened at Stonehenge every year since the early 70s.   It was brutal   Women with babies were dragged from their mobile homes, others were pulled through smashed windscreens. Vehicles were trashed. People were truncheoned to the floor.   There were huge numbers of arrests, but in the end, virtually nobody was found guilty of a crime, although the police themselves were subsequently taken to court and lost.    Matt Pike came to the Bureau to tell us all about it. Matt has an official role at Stonehenge, as a guardian of the stones, as a guide to visitors and is the official writer in residence of the site. He also has an unofficial role as social historian and archivist of a huge amount of information, oral testimonies and lesser-known histories of Stonehenge and the things that has happened there, including 'The Battle of the Beanfield', the shameful incident 40 years ago, when the British state turned its security forces on its own people as a warning to the counterculture of the times.   Matt's Youtube Channel Matt's Instagram   Photos: Andy Worthington #Stonehenge #BureauOfLostCulture #BattleOfTheBeanfield #policestate #freefestival #wallyhope #thatcher #counterculture #Stonehengefreefestival

Interview aired the weekend of 8/11/23!

Hey guys welcome back for another freaky episode! Just in time for summer solstice! Today we welcome Matt Pike to the show! Matt has a unique delivery style that grabs your attention and doesn't let go till he stops speaking.A big fan of hands on history and the power of storytelling, he has been researching and writing about the background of his home city for many years. After discovering his young family's home was built on the site of a disused jail yard, and the gruesome unsolved murder, of a Victorian child happened 10 yards from his garden shed on Halloween , he decided to roll up his sleeves and dig deeper into Salisbury's past. A chance encounter at Stonehenge led to a strong friendship being forged between Matt and fellow history fanatic's, Ruby Vitorino and Frogg Moody.  After months of comparing notes and swapping historic tales over a beer on Sunday nights. They decided it might be fun to write and present their first Halloween walk, to their great surprise it sold out! After this success they wrote more and more tours, each one getting more adventurous than the last. Nowadays after 7 years working together, using state of the art image projections, sleight of hand, music and even nerf guns to get the story across.  Matt is well respected in his field, well … one in particular, working as a custodian of Stonehenge for the last 7 years, he knows a thing or two about the world's most famous prehistoric monument and its surrounding valleys.  His love for tugging at the ribbons of mystery that surround Stonehenge and his natural gift for storytelling, has led to Matt delivering lectures for history societies, national and international university students, as well as featuring on BBC radio and television, and being a Special Guest on American Radio Network KCOR. Matt has had the pleasure of giving guided tours to many famous souls and their families over the last few years, from global music superstars like Alicia Keys and Ozzy Osbourne, too all out history legends like N.A.S.A Astronauts Buzz Aldrin, the second man on the moon. And Charlie Duke the youngest man ever to walk on the moon.In 2019 Matt was invited by English Heritage to become The First Official Writer in Residence at Stonehenge. During which time he produced a well-received book of local myths and legends as an inspirational educational project, enlisting the help of local school children.Matt has most recently finished writing a The Lake Down History Hike, that allows guided access to a unseen parts of the Stonehenge landscape, that lie on protected private land and will unlock the secrets of the stunning hamlet of Lake.Matt Pike Links: https://www.tiktok.com/@neolithicwanhttps://www.youtube.com/@neolithicwan/videosSPONSOR Check out Braxton County, West Virgina for plenty of beauty and a hub for paranormal activity!

The new album from Enslaved is called Heimdal, with a scheduled release for March 3 via Nuclear Blast. In addition to talking about the album, Grutle discusses the 2018 tour with Matt Pike and High on Fire, what he thinks of the festivals in the United States and outside Europe, his recollections of a show with Korn in 2007 and his opinion on the Lords of Chaos film. We have a lot of fun during this chat; I hope you enjoy listening!

We've featured loud rigs. We've stood strong in front of Matt Pike's octet of Oranges, been washed over with waves of volume from Angus Young's nine Marshalls for AC/DC's “small gig setup” in an arena, trembled from J Mascis' three plexi full stacks, and even withstood Bonamassa's barrage of seven amps at the Ryman, but nothing prepared us or compared to the Godzilla-rising-from-the-Pacific roar that is Sunn O)))'s auditory artillery. And it's more than the sheer sight of 14 amps and 16 cabs or the dishing of deafening decibels; it's the interplay of these characters and their conductors.“The third member of the band is the amplifiers!” laughed Greg Anderson in a 2014 interview with PG. “We use vintage Sunn Model Ts from the early '70s. They're a crucial part of the show. I've got more amps than I have guitars.”Stephen O'Malley takes a more metaphysical outlook to the connection between him and the thundering Model Ts. “My philosophy is that I'm just part of this bigger circuit of the instrumentation,” he says. “You have, of course, the amplifier valves, the speaker, effects pedals acting like different and various voltage filters, the air in the room, and the feedback generated from all this equipment, so who's in the band is immaterial.”We learned more about O'Malley's perspective when, following a 90-minute drive southeast from Nashville to Pelham, Tennessee, and a short descent into The Caverns, the Sunn O))) guitar tag team welcomed PG's Chris Kies onstage for an amplifying chat. O'Malley details his signature Travis Bean Designs SOMA 1000A, while Anderson explains how a broken guitar led him to his beloved Les Paul goldtop. Both pay homage and reverence to the eight Sunn Model Ts that form the band's foundational tonal force, and explain why the LM308-chip Rat influenced their Life Pedal collaboration with EarthQuaker Devices.Special Silver 25th anniversary edition of the V.3 Life PedalSunn O)) Official WebsiteBrought to you by D'Addario XPND Pedalboard.

Last week, the Campus Food Bank at Memorial University in St. John's had to shut its doors. That's because there wasn't enough food on the shelves to help everyone in need. A group of volunteers responded to that desperate call, And gathered donations on Halloween night. Matt Pike is the volunteer coordinator at the Campus Food Bank.

Hell Bent For Metal finally gets around to talking about Napalm Death, as the grindcore gods' song 'Suffer The Children' turns out to be super relatable to the LGBTQ+ metal fan, as Tom, Matt D and Charlie all confirm. Plus there's a full rundown of the myriad weird ways Tom's seen Napalm Death, and an explanation as to exactly why he describes the band a very specific way.Plus there's an amusing if rambling explanation as to why the wardrobe choices of stoner metal legend and all-round rifflord  Matt Pike (Sleep, High On Fire) wardrobe choices, in context, has occasionally confused the hell out of some gay onlookers' gaydars.There's no HCGBs this week due to a twink-related incident explained in the show, but there is news on something cool coming from HBFM on Friday.

2022 St. Joseph city football jamboree - full broadcast. As heard on StJosephPost.com. Tommy Rezac and Matt Pike on the call.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Zachary Ross and The Divine over Zoom video.Zachary Ross and The Divine release their debut single “A Light Over Massachusetts” and announce their signing to Smartpunk Records. With an EP on the way and more singles to come, this track marks Zac's first solo project since his days as the frontman in the beloved pop-punk band Man Overboard. The track masterfully showcases the group's distinct ability to create nostalgia-inspired modern rock music. The lyrics are a heartfelt dedication to a fellow musician and long-time friend.You may recall Zachary Ross from one of the most pivotal pop-punk bands of the 2010s - Man Overboard. His musical talents landed him on the main stage of the Vans Warped Tour, on the top 20 Billboard rock charts, and on worldwide tours with sold-out crowds on multiple continents. When the band came to an end, Zac tended to his family life and struggled with mental illness of his own. After a few years under the radar, he felt it was time to make new music under his own name in the summer of 2021. His agent Matt Pike encouraged him to take the plunge by reminding him that if he puts great music out, the world will probably listen, or at least some people. With that fire lit, Zac headed to Hollywood to make a record and a new band of his own. Despite Man Overboard reunion plans in the future, Zachary Ross and The Divine is his latest full-time effort and main outlet as a songwriter. The new tracks explore the stories of his life including love, loss, growth, and change. The familiar and beloved characteristics of Zac's previous musical endeavors are present and seamlessly blend with his new perspective and approach as a solo artist. His first EP under the moniker is set to release on August 19, 2022 via Smartpunk Records.We want to hear from you!

A few weeks ago we already had a short video special when we were talking to Nathan Gray about the problems of marketing. As we said then, we will not do that regularly but every now and then. This week this special became a little longer so we decided to release it as a regular video-episode for you. We spoke to Nate Hall about the sometimes problematic constellation of a musician and a music journalist via the example of Matt Pike from High on Fire or Sleep. To point it out, we are not okay with misogyny, xenophobia, hate because of sex or gender, fascism and lot more things that shall not all be mentioned here. When Nate published a statement on Facebook a few weeks back this was enough for Thorsten to ask whether we should do an interview on exactly that topic and fortunately Nate agreed. Hope you like it and maybe it makes you think a little bit.

THIS WEEK ON TOILET RADIO: We got a lovely email from a listener asking, "So what exactly do I do with the information that Matt Pike is big time into antisemitic conspiracy theories?" We're also talking about what was the final Maryland Deathfest(?) including: Will Rahmer's Big Weekend Out, people doing gross shit, barricades burst, beer shortages, and a death in the middle of a festival. Can't say I blame the organizers for calling it quits. Exhorder has a new guitarist: Pat O'Brien, formerly of Cannibal Corpse. Weird! Akhlys got mad about not being included in the festivities and had to look up some synonyms about it. Finally, Prosthetic Records is now sponsoring our favorite soccer team: The Glossop North End Football Club. Everyone knows we've been lifelong fans of this club so it's a nice surprise.

This week on Toilet Radio: We're talking about INFLATION and I don't mean erotic images online! Classic rock VJs cannot handle the cost of chicken parmesan. Joe cannot justify spending $29 on apples. Inflation is so bad that Vince Neil is forced to do ads for payday loans. And amid all this, Metallica thinks you'll spend $1600 on a record player? And here comes Universal Music Group gouging the price of vinyl? Get right outta town! We're also talking about Matt Pike's descent from fun, drug-addled weirdo to "Jewish banker" conspiracy mongering. Not great! Finally, we're talking about the imminent return of Power Trip. Folks, it's an episode.

Old Iron is a killer Seattle metal band that recently released a split album with Verdun via Satanik Royalty Records. I spoke with Jesse Roberts and Trent McIntyre about their upcoming shows with Matt Pike, their new material, how they stayed sane during the pandemic and much more.  This episode contains two new songs by Old Iron - turn it up! 

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and inhale the enticing aroma of the “jam room bouquet” while basking in the brown wood paneled, wall-to-wall orange shag carpeted, STONER DOOM jam room aesthetic (complete with a fully loaded “infinity hookah” in the middle of the room to tie it all together).   DOOM and STONER metal bands should really be classified by “strain” instead of “genre”.  Some bands are more “Fuzzy”, some more “Doomy”, and some more “Stony” * than others.  Hell, some of them may even be “hybrids”.  Guess what:  we enjoy them ALL!!! (Spoiler alert:  some of them we REALLY enjoyed!).   There's only two more weeks to finish training for the annual 4/20 Weedian Kief Run, hosted by Matt Pike and Mike Scheidt. Check out Ron's brand new “Wolf Steak Boost Juice” that he'll be marinading his meats in for the upcoming April 20th festivities at The Rib Lounge** and JOIN US for Vol. IV of The Marc Potterson Chronicles, as Metal Nerdery further explores and celebrates the Weedian realms of STONER & DOOM METAL!!!   *Actually, those are the names of the stoner druids pictured on the cover of Sleep's “Dopesmoker”.   **Available exclusively at The Rib Lounge © COTLOD Blvd location.    Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Listen on iTunes, Spotify, Podbean, Google Podcasts or wherever you get your Podcasts.

Sabaton vocalist Joakim Brodén is our guest this week! On this episode, we discuss the stories behind three of the tracks on the band's new album The War to End All Wars, the history and research behind those songs, and why he decided not to watch recent hit films on WWI. We also discuss almost coming to the states for the Judas Priest tour that was eventually postponed, developing the storytelling process with each album before recording, his favorite source of research, creating the Sabaton History Channel on Youtube, and the song he is most excited about performing off of the new album. Petar and Brandon also discuss Jinjer's unfortunate cancellation of their upcoming tour dates due to the invasion of the Ukraine, Slaughter to Prevail frontman Alex Terrible addressing the conflict in the Ukraine, Matt Pike not buying into the flat-earth conspiracy theory, the return of Pete Sandoval to the world of David Vincent, and Dave Lombardo rejoining Testament.

Holmberg's Morning Sickness - Tuesday February 15, 2022

Matt Pike is one of the leading proponents of dirty downtuned rock and metal, and he has a new semi-eponymously titled album in the can, which is titled Pike Vs The Automaton. It's an album that fans familiar with his work will enjoy, and for those yet to become acquainted with Matt's brand of metal, you are in for a treat. In this chat, we cover Pike Vs The Automaton, Matt's thoughts on the epic Dopesmoker album from Sleep and much more!

Matt Pike (Sleep, High on Fire) delves deep into his history as a fan, from breaking his dad's turntable on his 1970's quadraphonic sound system at the age of four to creating his very first solo album. We explore his utopian world, his teenage black mohawk, what happened when the Americans countered British heavy metal and lots more. Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/l6e4JCijdIQ

It's not intentional, but we're back in Louisiana this week to talk to Gary Mader (bass) of sludge legends, EYEHATEGOD. You may not remember, but they released their latest full length A History Of Nomadic Behavior earlier this year on CENTURY MEDIA and are fresh off a tour with Gwar and Napalm Death, so there is plenty to talk about.Music by:Matt PikeEyehategodStone House On FireIntro music by:Hot ZonePatreon: https://www.patreon.com/GettingitoutpodcastEmail: dan@gettingitout.netWebsite: http://gettingitout.net/Instagram: @getting_it_out_podcastFacebook: www.facebook.com/gettingitoutpodcastTwitter: @GettingItOutPod Get bonus content on PatreonSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/getting-it-out.

Happy Monday, Happy Holidays, and let's get down to the real question here...DOES IT DOOM???? Today's guest is Steve Reis...face of the very popular YouTube channel Does it Doom? Steve's channel helps break down stoner, sludge, and doom songs, bands, and gear...his goal is to de-mystify doom and help folks play the songs and get the tones. How does Matt Pike do it? How does Sunn 0))) make Sunn 0))) sounds? How can yo use gear aimed at the mass market to get very specific sounds? We talked to Steve about all of that, the birth of the channel, new bands to break down, getting into the business of building gear (pedalboards, pedals, guitars), the legendary First Act customs (he's a collector), and balancing a full-time job, a family, and an exploding YouTube empire.We also listen to some great music, including songs from the Dominance and Submission Blue Oyster Cult comp that Ripple is putting out featuring past guests Howling Giant, Zeke, Year of the Cobra, and many more. We wrap up by listening to Moon Tooth's new song The Conduit as we look forward to our 2021 wrap-up episode with the one and only John Carbone...singer for Moon Tooth.Does it DoomYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcnbt-HT9GbsN2jNw9iEJGwInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/doesitdoom/?hl=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/doesitdoomMoon Tooth - The Conduithttps://moontoothny.bandcamp.com/track/the-conduitDominance and Submission - A Tribute to Blue Oyster Culthttps://ripplemusic.bandcamp.com/album/d-minance-and-submissi-n-a-tribute-to-blue-yster-cultThis Week's SubmissionsFostermotherhttps://ripplemusic.bandcamp.com/album/the-oceanCrash Cadethttps://crashcadet.bandcamp.com/track/hot-bananasTears of Firehttps://tearsoffire.bandcamp.com/album/relics-of-ancient-loveBands!

Estamos en tiempos de sequía de lanzamientos discográficos pero al menos el ex The Wrens, Kevin Whelan, ha publicado Observatory, su debut como Aeon Station y se merece ser nuestro disco de la semana. Despertamos con Matt Pike en solitario como Pike Vs The Automaton, suenan novedades de Ruth Radelet, Erik Urano o Best Coast y el villancico viene a cargo del ya clásico recopilatorio de Jean D'Arc y una versión de Last Xmas de Eurosanto con gewrl.

We spoke about Allison getting her first instrument. There was dialogue about what went on between Veils of Winter and Silence/Motion. Can you tell me about getting your first instrument? We spoke about using Dylan White to record the album. It was recorded Summer 2020. Allison spoke about bringing in Erika Osterhout in as a live guitarist. We spoke about a few songs from Pyscho Las Vegas. We looked back on recording the Motorhead/Girlschool song Please Don't Touch with Matt Pike. Allison spoke about her most cherished musical possessoon as well as a one of a kind Blackwater Holylight soevenire related to the song Babies and finished things up discussing a Portland urban legend.

Tony Iommi's opening cough solo on BLACK SABBATH's 3rd release (1971's MASTER OF REALITY) signaled the “Big Bong”, (the creative “spark”, if you will) that would become the “seed”, the “budding” genesis of ALL Stoner Metal.   It's our 100th episode, and what better way to celebrate our “elevation” into the realm of triple digits than to “inhale” BLACK SABBATH, Vol. III (or “MASTER OF REALITY” in case you weren't following the bouncing balls.  Or ball.  Or whatever it is that's bouncing that you definitely weren't following because you're “baked-not-fried”).   To celebrate our landmark 100th episode, Metal Nerdery invited a special guest to JOIN US at our 33rd Floor Bunkerpune Inversion Studios to commemorate the album that bolth Matt Pike and Marc Potterson “jointly” hold in the “highest” regard possible (and they're not being “blunt”, either).     Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode   Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Listen on iTunes, Spotify, Podbean, Google Podcasts or wherever you get your Podcasts.

Tony Iommi’s opening cough solo on Black Sabbath’s “Master of Reality” was the clarion call for a new KINE of Metal.  The KINE of Metal that smells like Sleep’s jam room.  The KINE of Metal that is overflowing with stony, doomy, fuzzy goodness.  Yeah, man…we’re talking about Stoner Metal…dude.   Take whatever leftover relaxers you have from your 4/20 festivities, roll them into a ginormous bowl and set it ablaze while praying to Matt Pike for an abundant (and ultra-heavy) harvest of KINE riffs and buds and JOIN US as we inhale the 3rd volume of the continuing Stoner Doom saga that is known as Metal Nerdery: The Marc Potterson Chronicles, Vol. III.

And what's the key to Matt Pike's crushing guitar tone? Plus the guys — Dave, Lord Gates, Wild Bill and Jay Man —debate the top 5 High on Fire tunes of all time. The show concludes with that exclusive interview with Matt Pike, as Dave and Wild Bill talk to Matt about his COVID downtime, the history of High on Fire, and what's next — if anything — for Sleep.

The first episode of HOT-BLOODED Podcast to feature TWO guests: Matt Pike of the Grammy Award-winning sludge-metal band High on Fire and pioneering doom band Sleep, and Alyssa Maucere-Pike of Lord Dying, Glory In The Shadows, and Grigax. In this episode, the married couple sit down with Cat Jones to discuss how they met, sex on psychedelics, the time Matt shot a solo porno in a truck-stop shower, the three wild gifts that won Alyssa over after a years-long game of cat-and mouse, the secret to a happy, respectful marriage, and much more.

[GROUP PICK] In 1969, Black Sabbath helped breathe life into a new form of rock called heavy metal--and in 1991, Sleep did the same thing to heavy metal, ushering in a bigger, jammier, and smokier incarnation called stoner metal. Although metal had reached it's peak in popularity in that time, for a lot of fans it had lost it's luster. Metalheads and stoners went underground, finding refuge in genres like doom metal and bands that just jammed hard in their friend's basements, beer-in-hand and bong smoke filling the rooms, like the metal they fell in love with--and Sleep was there to help. Their 1992 release "Sleep's Holy Mountain" was stoner metal's early magnum opus, and set a high bar for those that followed. With widespread critical approval and murmurings in the metal scene about them being the second coming of Black Sabbath, they should have complete artistic freedom on their next project... right? Well... although promised complete artistic freedom at first, once actually signed to London Records, the A&R member who had made the promise was replaced, and Sleep had a dilemma. For the past several years, they had been crafting an hour long epic, referring to it as "Dopesmoker" (due to the massive amounts of cannabis that were "critical" to the writing process) when performing it live and in 1996, freshly out of their deal with Earache Records, they were ready to record it. The band felt as if it was one song and needed to remain that way, without editing it down, but London Records didn't agree. They wanted something that was a little more marketable and had David Sardy create a mixed down 6 track version of it. Sleep and London Records stayed in a deadlock over this and the band actually broke up over the negative experience, Al Cicerno and Chris Hakius going on to create the transcendent band Om and Matt Pike creating High On Fire. But the album was destined to be set free and in 1999 a bootleg version called "Jerusalem" was released, the title based on what the band had been calling the song late in the process, with a Middle Eastern desert theme in mind. However, it was only the 6 track cut of the album, so finally in 2003 they released "Dopesmoker," the song in it's entirety.

Before we chatted with DP in Ep. 33 (have you listened to that yet?!), we recorded a bit of a mini-cast and decided to put it out for y’all.We spend time closing out our holiday wishlists and talking Rammstein, gear thieves, Our Band Could Be Your Life, the Barym G-Bender, and the Korora Audio Spira. Then Hank dives deep into beta testing the Balthazar Audio Systems Cabaret 13, Taylor nylon string guitars, getting nervous on camera while shooting the demo of the Fulltone Ranger for Chicago Music Exchange, and hanging out with Jeff Matz and Matt Pike from High on Fire.No toes were harmed from all of the name dropping.

In today's episode we're chatting with Dallas Seger of Seger Guitars. We cover the details of Matt Pike's Seger YG, the basics of how to setup your guitar for downtuned doom metal, some important aspects regarding scale length, his current build schedule, amp demos, and more.  You can find more from Seger Guitars at the following links: https://www.segerguitars.com https://www.instagram.com/segerguitars https://www.facebook.com/segerguitars

Nile mastermind Karl Sanders is our guest this week. We discuss the writing process for Nile's new album, Vile Nilotic Rites, the extensive touring prior to recording it, keeping up that momentum in the studio, the anxiety that comes with releasing new music and what made this album cycle different, how producer Mark Lewis helped strengthen its production, why he isn't interested in playing a classic album in its entirety and more. Sanders also shares the lessons that he brings to life from training in martial arts, his current gripe with modern day reviewers of music, and if there are any secret personal lyrics behind Nile songs. Petar, Brandon, and Jozalyn tackle the news of Sleep's planned indefinite hiatus, which Matt Pike band we prefer, The Black Crowes reuniting with only Chris and Rich Robinson from the classic band lineup, and Corey Taylor's thought on writing great music sober.

Matt Pike of High on Fire and Sleep is our guest this week. We discuss his recent diagnosis as a diabetic, his recently amputated toe, the tour cancelations it caused and having to change his diet to manage the disease. Matt also tells us about the decision to surprise-release Sleep's The Sciences on 4/20 last year, his decision to spurn Coachella in favor of Roadburn, the preparation for doing double duty in both High On Fire and Sleep at festivals and the dream he had after Lemmy died that influenced Electric Messiah. We then dive deep on some non-musical topics, including where he thinks America is headed in 2019, the integrity (or lack thereof) of mainstream media, his thoughts on humans being created by aliens in a petri dish, how he handles being called crazy for his beliefs, and how he researches the strange topical matters for his lyrics. Petar, Brandon, and Jozalyn discuss the Chris Cornell tribute concert, Taylor Swift's use of an Every Time I Die lyric in her album artwork, and new information in the bizarre evolving story surrounding the passing of All That Remains' Oil Herbert.

With Robin Hilton out for one more week, NPR Music's Ann Powers and Lars Gotrich join Stephen Thompson for a whirlwind tour of a busy release day. We've got the first album in five years by the spiky pop-rock band Swearin' (featuring the great and good Allison Crutchfield); the gorgeous first album in six years by Chan Marshall, a.k.a. Cat Power; the heavy, almost absurdly ambitious rock and roll of F***** Up; the versatile country of Eric Church; the springy and inspirational anthems of multi-hyphenate powerhouse Tunde Olaniran; the sprawling, deeply searching rock of mewithoutYou; the rugged metal of Matt Pike's long-running band High on Fire; and Phosporescent's Matthew Houck, whose beatific folk-rock sprawls with winsome approachability.

Interview aired the weekend of 9/14/18

Needles are an essential aspect of our practices that most of us don’t know much about, other than we have some brands or types we like to use. What goes into a needle and how needle technology over the years has changed is a bit of a mystery to many of us. So I’m delighted to have Matt Pike here with me. He’s been involved with the sourcing and manufacture of acupuncture needles for a long time. We are going to get into the backstory on this essential tool that we use everyday in the work we do. And we’re going to talk a little about a new needled being introduced here at the conference that has been specially designed and  manufactured for sports and orthopedic acupuncture. 

Daniel Kwan (host of the Curiosity in Focus podcast) joins this episode of GDAH to continue our conversation about archaeology in pop culture. In this, Kwan and I cover some examples of archaeology in TV, games (board and video), and music. Kwan, being a pop culture aficionado, blasts through a list of TV shows portraying archaeology in various ways. It is the portrayal of archaeology and archaeologists that says something important about attitudes toward the discipline. From Star Trek's even-handed application of cultural relativism in the Star Fleet's "prime directive", to Hank Hill's indignant frustration with an archaeologist who ruins his yard in King of the Hill, views on archaeology's relevance as a discipline and archaeologists' credibility as stewards of cultural resources run wide. Shifting to games, we give a nod to the pioneers of Archaeogaming - researchers examining the way archaeology is presented in games, and the ways archaeological theory and method can be applied to built virtual environments, the code itself, and the physical material of game packaging. As for archaeology in board games, Kwan relates examples of archaeological theory and method being applied to tabletop role playing games like Dungeons & Dragons and Coriolis. We take two approaches to discussing archaeology in music - one is the role music plays in our experience in the field; the other covers references to archaeology or the products of its research in song. I mention my secret love of reggae and reggaeton, and how I actually used to hate it until years of working in the Caribbean/Central American nation of Belize got me hooked. There’s a song by Damian Marley (son of Bob Marley) & Nas called “Patience” that references ancient culture, oral traditional knowledge, archaeologists, Indiana Jones, and makes a call against the hangovers of colonialism - a recurring theme in reggae and Rastafarianism. At one point, Nas says “discovering the world before this world, buried in time, uncovered in rhyme”. The music video kinda rules too. Turning to one of my favorite bands, I can’t believe it’s already been 2 years since this album came out - “Luminiferous” by High on Fire. I was floored when I read this interview with guitarist/singer, Matt Pike, who full-on believes aliens have been among humans since Ancient Sumer. Stoner and Doom metal are subgenres that are rife with references to ancient cultures and pseudoarchaeological claims to the occult. Some of my favorite bands in this style, like The Sword or Electric Wizard, often make (cheesy) references to either real or imaginary ancient material culture to relate themes of power, violence, and life experience in current real-world settings. There are also passing references in a couple Modest Mouse songs to archaeology. I can’t find the link to the interview but their lead singer, Isaac Brock, apparently studied anthropology in school before graduating with an Associates Degree.

Another Friday is here and another episode of Edgeland is ready to brainwash you into X'ing up and starting fights. Bill is on a much needed vacation in Alaska this week and is probably riding a moose as you read this, and to commemorate this Bill is showcasing the premiere Alaskan straight edge hardcore band. Listen and enjoy. In the interview portion of the show Bill talks with returning guest Matt Pike about his former band Some Kind of Hate, when the Kenmore Agency went full time, and his involvement with a variety of different reunions.

Our guest this week: the legendary Matt Pike of High on Fire! Not only did he play a show with his shirt on, but he allowed us a glimpse into his mind post-rehab, how his life is shaping up without drugs and booze, and how he handles some serious situations that come up on the road. We also try and shake off the Thanksgiving hangover by talking about the sickness that is Ian Watkins and the Lostprophets mess, and we discuss whether an album that came out two months ago should even be considered as the best metal album of all time. Songs:High on Fire - "Slave the Hive"Wax Audio - "South of the Grapevine"

One Monday morning, booking agent Matt Pike and I mixed it up and spoke about his first tour booking experience, how difficult of a balancing act growing up in punk & hardcore is and growing up on the east coast.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://news.iheart.com/podcast-advertisers
