I'm on the 106 bus riding from York University to Wilson Station. during my first year at the institution, i was on a mission to pick up the latest effort by my favourite band, the highly anticipated Day for Night. Since mid-summer of 1993, i'd been going bananas over the song Nautical Disaster, first introduced to me during my 19th birthday. It was at another roadside attraction, and as the band launched into New Orleans as Syncon they jammed through the now classic cut in spectacular fashion. However, it wasn't until the Kumbaya Festival early in September of that same year that I finally heard the track on tape. My friend Heather had come home from university having recorded the festival on DHS. We quickly dubbed the video to cassette and now I was off to the races From there. it took until Canada Day of 1994 before I heard anything else from the record. The hip played the gig with a chip on their shoulder, as many of the fans had acted brorish and disrespectful towards many of the opening acts, including Daniel and Locke. The set was heavily peppered with songs from Day for Night and I liked what I heard. As I got off the subway and approached HMV, it was nearing midnight. The new album would be in my hands soon and I could listen without the distraction of frapples throwing bottles towards the stage. From the first notes of Grace II, this one felt different, especially after the slick polish of fully completely or the bar blues of the prior two records. This was a band hitting its stride and understanding exactly where it fit into the fabric of the rock and roll paradigm. But that was then. Today I'm tasked with taking Pete and Tim into my memories and hoping to goodness this one sticks the landing for them. We'll soon find out on this episode of Getting Hip to the Hip. Long Sliced Brewery Presents Getting Hip to the Hip. Hey, it's JD here and welcome to Getting Hip to the Hip, a Tragically Hip podcast where we go through the discography of the hip with two folks who have never heard of the band before. So, while they're having their first experience listening to the music, you can revisit yours. Send me an email, jd, at GettingHipToTheHipcom, with your first experience with the Tragically Hip. It would be great to hear those, as we listen to Pete and Tim, describe theirs. Speaking of Pete and Tim, they are most certainly ready to be released from their protective hatches. I will push the button now and they are there. They are on their platforms. they're they're levitating platforms. How are you doing, fellas? 0:05:22 - Speaker 2Hey guys, Oh sorry. 0:05:26 - Speaker 1He nodded his head. 0:05:29 - Speaker 2I nodded my head for all you out there in radio land. 0:05:32 - Speaker 3That's my favorite aspect of podcasts. 0:05:35 - Speaker 1He loves theater of the mind. Sorry about that. Yeah, that's great. What's new? 0:05:42 - Speaker 2Oh man, it's new. Back in the saddle, man, you know. back to work today, like I said, struggling with a little bit of jet lag, but other than that, i mean I, i how much time we got JD. I could. Could tell you a lot of what's going on, but I don't know. Put you guys to sleep, tim. What's going on with you man? 0:06:08 - Speaker 3Oh, just cranking on. the week getting started here And last week was, to be honest, kind of rough, so I'm hoping this week's good. That's. that's what I'm counting on. 0:06:18 - Speaker 1Fingers across for you, fellas, both of you, to avail yourself from the. Jag, the Jag lat the jet lag and for you to feel better this week. 0:06:29 - Speaker 2Did you try to? did you try to call me a jackoff right now? 0:06:33 - Speaker 1Is that what you're trying to call me? No, i said jet lag, but I said it wrong. Jag lift, jag off. Yeah, i'm all right, i can't complain. We've got a new puppy dog and she's pretty awesome So far. She's having a nap on the bed right now. She spent the morning in her crate, so you know, we've been letting her run free this afternoon, or I have been letting her run free this afternoon. So, yeah, that's really irrespective of nothing. But Who named her? I did. 0:07:09 - Speaker 2Nice. 0:07:10 - Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, that's my last naming job that I get to do, though. 0:07:15 - Speaker 2I gotta ask you, michael Keaton, george Clooney, val Kilmer, christian Bale, robert Pattinson- I guess I'm a bailperson at this point. I would have. I would have also. The judges would have also accepted Adam West Michael. 0:07:34 - Speaker 1Keaton. Oh, adam West, yeah, sure, sure, yeah. 0:07:39 - Speaker 2Michael Keaton. Michael Keaton was great, but yeah, christian Bale was. Those movies were so amazing. 0:07:43 - Speaker 1Oh, it was Batmania, just Batmania, when Keaton and Tim Burton put that whole thing together. 0:07:52 - Speaker 2Oh yeah, Tim, were you a fan. 0:07:54 - Speaker 3No opinion. 0:07:55 - Speaker 2Okay, you're fleeting the fifth on this one. 0:07:59 - Speaker 1Yeah, no opinion, okay. So we're here today to talk about the fourth long play from the Tragically HIP, their fifth output at this point. This came out in 1994, to be exact, it came out the third week of my first year of university and they did a midnight album release. So, like all the record stores were open, they would be open all day and then they would close at nine and then they would reopen at midnight so they could sell the record, because it was the next day, it was Tuesday, so it was like Monday night at midnight you would go and get the record before anybody else. 0:08:42 - Speaker 2I remember that Tower used to do that too. 0:08:44 - Speaker 1Right, it was a cool fad and it's just. 0:08:48 - Speaker 2you know it's got like It was Tuesday you said right, That's right. 0:08:51 - Speaker 1Records always came out on Tuesdays. 0:08:53 - Speaker 2And there's a reason for that, and somebody told me the reason. I can't remember, but there was a reason. There's a distinct reason why that was the case, right. 0:09:01 - Speaker 1Okay. Well, if you out there know what it is, use social and let us know. Or shoot us an email at JD, pete or Tim at getting hip to the hipcom. This record means a lot to me. So you know, i'm not going to. I'm not going to beat around the bush this time. Or I am going to no, i'm not going to beat around the bush this time, i'm going to lay it all out right now and say I fucking love this record. So you know, let that not impact your scores. But there may be some arguments because it's just got the, it's got the crisscross of hitting a sweet spot for me with my favorite band at the time and coming out temporarily at just the right time you know to to build a culture around. you know it was produced by the hip with assistance from Howard and Freakin I believe it's Mark Howard and Mark Freakin. Freakin I want to say sound guy for the hip You can listen to fully and completely to get the all, the, all, the detailed information. We always went through that stuff in a big way on that show And this is not what this one's about. This is an addendum. So the label was MCA. This is again another MCA release for the hip Looks in at a record 59 minutes 26 seconds, you know, just a almost an hour. Singles It had six singles. Grace, two was a single, it was the first. One came out right before the record dropped. Greasy jungle was the second one. Nautical disaster was the third one. So hard done by then scared, and then thugs, and I believe that thugs was almost, you know, a full year after the record came out. So this one had legs. All music rated this record a 3.5 or part of me a three out of five, much lower than fully completely, which was the record before this, which got a 4.5 out of five. So a three. Very interesting, very, very interesting, grace. Start off the top with your initial thoughts on this record, mr Leiden. 0:11:32 - Speaker 3I felt it was long, you know, and realize pretty quickly that we were getting some extra songs. What else about it? I did notice some recording kind of changes or uplifts as far as production value goes, which is cool. What else about it? There are some certain songs on there which I absolutely dug. I ended up listening to the first half of the album several times I want to say struggled through to get through the whole album in a sitting, but I just kept finding myself starting over at certain points. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So we can talk about that more. 0:12:16 - Speaker 1I mean, it's definitely a long record, And could I edit this record? Sure, i could. I'm not going to ever say which songs I would potentially edit out, because they're all my babies and I just couldn't say it, but I secretly know which ones I'd get rid of. Tim, you have been looking for an album. You've been searching for an album throughout this podcast. You know you've talked about Pizza with the Works, you've talked about Mishmash's and collections of songs produced together to round out an album, but it seems to me as though you are seeking not necessarily a concept, but a conceit, and I would have thought that paid off with fully, completely. It didn't. So how about this record? I? 0:13:06 - Speaker 3don't think I'm quite there yet, but I'm close. Okay, i was expecting this album to be maybe more, maybe more concise, since they were driving and had more control, i don't know. I think that just the fact that it was a couple songs longer in the cadence of all the songs and really looking at where their place and all those things that I like to do, you know, it checked a lot of boxes for me, but I didn't. I didn't finish listening to it in a take and go oh yeah, now I'm here. Pretty close though, but I'm pretty close, jd, tell us, tell us, you know, when it came out at 12.01, were you in line buying it, or when did you listen to it? Like, what do you recall from your first listen to this album and how you felt and why it's your fave? 0:14:00 - Speaker 1Well, again, it's got that crossroads right of like culture and time and place And they were my favorite band so it was like so exciting to be in Toronto and buying it right away, because before I would have had to buy it the next day, there had been some concerts leading up to the release of this record where they had dribbled some breadcrumbs of what this record was going to entail And it was so cool to hear it And, more importantly for me, after the very slick sounding fully, completely, i love the. Well, you guys both know that I'm into lo-fi music and this isn't necessarily lo-fi, but this sounds much more self-produced, right Like. It sounds like it's recorded by people who are making their first record in a good way, in a really good way, like it's so fresh sounding after what. The last group of records that we heard were more slick and polished and that sort of bar rock thing. I've always said. This was the record where the Tragically Hip revealed that it hasn't been beer that's been fueling them all these years. It's weed, like they're a total weed band, and this record was the first one that reminded me of that. The rest of the records are sort of beer Okay okay, you know. Yeah, i've had 30 years to gestate on that, though, so bear that in mind. Now Pete has blood pouring out of his mouth right now. He's chewing his tongue off. You know He's dying to jump in here. What does he have to say about all this hullabaloo? 0:15:43 - Speaker 2Well, real quick. You mentioned that this was three out of five, and fully and completely was 4.5 out of five. Who's the company? 0:15:55 - Speaker 1I always use all music. I always use all music, all music, yeah. 0:15:59 - Speaker 2Yeah, they got their heads up their asses, because I don't even remotely see how this is less on the point scale than fully and completely, because I thought this record was fucking awesome. I agree that I felt the same way. That kind of Tim felt that it was a bit lengthy. I felt myself starting at a number of times and struggling a little bit to get through some ladder parts. There's certainly some areas where they could trim the fat, if you will. I'm not going to say which ones they are, but it was like for a band that's producing their first. It's their first go at producing a record themselves. It's kind of like it's just a little too much. It's like going out on a great first date, dinner's great, movie's great go back to the house. Sex is great. Oh, first date That your date's like hey, do you ever want to have kids? You know, it's like. It's like totally could've just done without saying that and the night would've been perfect. Like they just say that, they just ask that. Like on their way out It's like, oh, okay, doesn't mean you're not going to go out with them again, but it's, you know, i love it. I love it. 0:17:30 - Speaker 3I'll leave it there for now to let you say You know, i'll just quickly add on that very you know, very similar token that I had with it. I'm curious to hear the next albums And then to again look back at specific albums to see how I feel about them, because this is probably one. You know you are so excited. You know there's a trilogy of movies coming out on something that you love And you see the first one and you're like God, i hope the next two movies are just as good. Maybe the next one is pretty good or better, and you're like, oh shit, this is going to be great. You know, it's kind of I'm leaning towards that. I'm excited to revisit some of these to see how I feel in a couple of months. Hopefully I won't be like dude, i'm done you guys. No, that's not going to be the case. But yeah, i'm anxious to revisit the future for sure, because this is probably one of those albums. 0:18:30 - Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, i'll be interested to see that too. Maybe again we will have like a 10 year reunion. Pete mentioned that in the last episode. You know we should go back 10 years. Oh, we might. So who knows, maybe we will revisit this on whatever platform the kids are listening to in the future. I'm sure they'll be nuclear powered or something OK. So here's something new An intro song that doesn't just like open with a kick to your ass. It opens in a much different way. It still manages to kick your ass, but in a much different way. It doesn't have like a lick off the top like little bones or courage for human clenin, you know. It just doesn't have or blow a high dough. It doesn't have that same sort of whoop in the butt. It's a taste of like this is what you're going to get. I think You know it's a little bit of like setting the table. It's because you're listening to it and you're like whoa, this isn't the hip that I left behind a year and a half ago. 0:20:08 - Speaker 6Come on, just let's go. She kind of bit her left Geez, I don't know. But I can guarantee That we're now not gonna do. I'm told no proof That we're not gonna do. That's what I'm here for. I come from downtown. I'm already familiar. I'm with the low and weaks of our nation. That's what I'm here for. 0:21:46 - Speaker 7The secret rules of engagement are hard to endure. 0:21:57 - Speaker 6When the appearance of conflict again surrender means the appearance of force. Uncle, uncle, i can guarantee, i can guarantee There'll be no knock on the door. I can guarantee. I'm total proud. That's what I'm prepared for. Yeah, i've come from downtown. I'm ready for you. I'm ready to scale. And it's frustration. I'm ready to scale. And it's frustration. I'm ready to scale. And it's frustration. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. 0:25:07 - Speaker 7No, no, no, no, no, no. Thank you, music lovers. On behalf of our crew the finest crew in the business, ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of Robbie Gordy, johnny Paul, mr Jim Bryson on Keys, us musicians and the crew and everybody here tonight, we want to thank you. Thank you, music lovers. Thank you and Merci beaucoup. Summer on. Summer on take care of each other, drive the speed limit, wear a life jacket. 0:26:24 - Speaker 2Summer on you mentioned setting the table and I agree. And it's saying that it's a different band. That's like the one of the first things that wrote down. I feel like to be honest with you. I like this song so much. I feel like kind of it's just stupid even talking about it like it's such an honestly, it's a fucking banger. And I think I had sent to you guys in the group text like the SNL performance of this song. Yeah, it's just, it's jaw-dropping. Yeah, it's. It's the line about just. I looked at the phrasing, i looked at the lyrics and the way he did he wrote the lyrics and it's just so cool. Sorry, i wish I could articulate it better, but the rules of engagement are hard to endorse. Yeah, like is this I read a little bit online that it was you know about like a man propositioning a prostitute or a young girl. But I'm also like, is this a song about war? is this like an anti-war line that he's throwing in there? is it a double and tongue girl? I don't know, but I don't know. I could say a million things about this song, but I'll hand it over to to mr Leiden. 0:27:54 - Speaker 3I'm. I'm pretty much in the same boat. I heard this song and I immediately thought this is a stellar hip song. I can't wait to hear the rest of the album. But instead of like really going to the rest of the album, i immediately found the first live version I could find on a Google search, because I thought this song is, is gotta be, you know, quintessential live hip song and that's that's kind of where I went and I ended up finding the, the Woodstock 99. If you guys haven't watched any of the documentary about Woodstock 99, please do. It was a just the demise of Western North America, usa culture right there. But anyways, this recording, this video recording of the band at Woodstock 99, is so good, like chills on my arms, like Goose Pimples, it was just fucking amazing. This, this song. You know, i was basically like okay, that's, that's my single. Should I listen to the rest of the album? I'm pretty happy right now didn't they do. 0:29:12 - Speaker 2What did they do? a 94 and a 99, or did they just do 99 just? 0:29:19 - Speaker 3I think the documentary it's a 99 one, where they set everything on fire and tore down all the stages and rated the food trucks and 99 all those things. And then, you know, with this song in particular, i was anxious to hear the band doing their own thing without, you know, managers or producers looming over them. And there were a couple different things I heard, which are even more so on certain songs. But the drums sounded a little different, a little bigger. Maybe the bass was a little bit more engaged with drumming. And there's there's been some times when the bass is kind of funky feeling, just like really in it there was some kind of I don't know, pete, you might know, but there was some echo, really echoey guitar effects. 0:30:12 - Speaker 2I got, i got that written which were pretty cool. 0:30:15 - Speaker 3Yeah, it was kind of the song just hit all the boxes had kind of this transcendental gonna take you on a journey. You know, i liked it so much I was like I don't even care what it's about, this is just a great listen yeah. 0:30:32 - Speaker 1Tim you talking about. You know the drums being bigger and you know the production just sounding. You know bigger and you know with with some of the guitar effects a lot of it has to do with. They went back to New Orleans but this time they went to that Daniel Inwas studio and the Kingsway studio, which is just a big old house and you know they would do stuff like bedsheets over the stairwells and you know, just like like home studio tricker, but on a bigger, bolder scale, because this house has so many nooks and crannies that you can get different sounds of the different spaces. And they took advantage of that, which is very different from the, the path they took on the record prior. 0:31:22 - Speaker 2Okay, daredevil so daredevil this, the skipping start that they did. Yeah, i feel like that was. So this was. What year was this? again? GD 94, 94. So I feel like I mean that was the height of like CDs like were where literally everybody had a CD player, wasn't like the early days. So I feel like maybe it was a. It was a joke to to make people think their CD was skipped, because if you ever bought a CD and you were unfortunate to buy a scratch CD that was brand new and it skipped, you were fucking pissed. Oh yeah, so that was cool, that was unique. This song certainly does sound way better in the car. I don't know if it's just specifically my car, because I have a pretty good sounds. 0:32:26 - Speaker 3It's the premium audio system. Is that what you guys kept saying? 0:32:30 - Speaker 6premium audio. 0:32:31 - Speaker 3I think we're at a point for an acronym for pass sound system everybody everybody listening. 0:32:37 - Speaker 1How about a? 0:32:38 - Speaker 3t-shirt yeah, if I get, if I get through this. 0:32:41 - Speaker 1Okay, these guys only a ride in Pete's car, the big that dooby or there should be a bingo card where the you know, every time you hear Pete say premium audio sound system, you tick the box, or and then there's of course the free square, and then, if you hear me say so, there's that geez, we're going to Malaga. 0:33:15 - Speaker 3There's this guy there with this premium audio system and he gives people rides. 0:33:22 - Speaker 2I'm just saying that because I'm due you're doing yeah, for sure $25 a song I'm good I think that'd be cool. I think a job this no, this song. Tim mentioned something about the, this bass. You were JD, you were talking about the, the studio and all the trickery. But yeah, this is the first one where I write down the like the guitar solos, for example. They seem way less defined on this record, and I don't mean it in a bad way, i mean it in a way that and then there was a really cool oscillation effect maybe a little more jam. 0:34:13 - Speaker 3I don't know if you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, i think the flavor is kind of gelled together more the oscillation effect. 0:34:24 - Speaker 2If you've ever heard the the song real emotional trash on the album, real emotional trash yeah, that Steve Malkomis song I know this came before that, but whatever he's using on that guitar solo is exactly the same effect they're using on their level because that oscillation of the guitar is just. It's so cool. I wish I was cool enough to know what it was to ever be able to use myself, because it's fucking rad. Anyway, i dug this song a lot. I really liked it. 0:34:59 - Speaker 1What do you think? what do you think they're damn? 0:35:03 - Speaker 3I did too. I think, yeah, i love the drummer just counting it off at the beginning. That that made it feel like maybe more home recording type scenario. This song, this song, like I was wishing I was in a bar, just like sitting at the bar pull-up and just I felt like I could be watching the band, you know. But it was like the barkeep and the kitchen people and I don't know. This, this one, this one kind of took me in a different direction than than many. After the one minute mark maybe this is kind of what you're talking about, pete like with the guitar and drums it gets kind of heavier or more layer layered. It felt like locomotive, like this train's just really going story wise, i mean, that's probably a podcast itself to talk about Annie Edison Taylor and going over the falls aspect of this one I love. The line in the real wonder of the world is that we don't jump to. Yes, you know, that's. That to me is like it delivers something inspiring. The song is like get out and get after it. Step out, you know, jump off that cliff, you have 50% chance of surviving if you survive. It's gonna be awesome and if you die, it'll be awesome. You know, this sounds really. It really is really cool. 0:36:40 - Speaker 1Where do we go next? we hit track three, and that's greasy jungle. Take it, tim greasy jungle. 0:36:48 - Speaker 3This one, the snares really snappy. I felt like this is where you're kind of hearing different recording, maybe aspects. When I say snappy snare, it's like tuned tighter. Maybe you know there's lots of film references here in this song which we've gotten before. There's congas, like. There's some hand drumming at some point in the song, i believe, which is. I was just like kind of tuned into the drums on this one. Obviously that's a background effect, but a new layer. There's a definitely a new crash cymbal, like there was some new drum gear right on this album. There's a new crash cymbal that's really bright. That's always kind of gets my attention. I didn't realize first few listens that it was like dirty streets, metropolis, correlation with greasy jungle. I didn't know what the heck it was about. You know I didn't for a song three. I always like hope that this is the one that's gonna get maybe somebody around the bases at bat. You know that they're gonna push, push it through and this one didn't do it as much for me. I was more kind of like okay, what's, what's next with. 0:38:21 - Speaker 1This one didn't grab me so much one of the cool little Gord Downey stories is the lyric that you're just talking about metropolis noir. It sounds so elegant and mysterious at the same time. But metropolis noir is a name he saw on a bag of coffee, it's. It's like French roasts, but in French it wasn't French roasts, it was a dark roast or something, or Italian roast. 0:39:00 - Speaker 3Dark roasts. Dark roasts, italian roasts. 0:39:02 - Speaker 1I forget which one it was, but it translated, because everything in Canada has to have a French label and a Canadian label. It translated to matropolis noir. So that's just one of those little things he stuck in his notebook. and then he's writing this greasy jungle, matropolis noir. And all of a sudden you've got this setting and then it takes you on that little story for funeral home sandwiches and coffee. Oh delicious Yeah. 0:39:33 - Speaker 3Yeah, i think that I also read that it maybe referenced a diner that he worked at that had the same name. Oh really, did you guys know that? Yeah, yeah, greasy jungle. Greasy jungle Sounds like a good diner though. 0:39:48 - Speaker 2Yeah, jd, you said French roasts, and it's funny because I always think I don't remember the name of the comedian, but in France they just call it roast, just like Tim and I's definition of Canadian bacon is actually just bacon for you right, JD, No I can't remember the comedian who did that bit, but, tim, i couldn't disagree with you more on this one. However, i will tell you. 0:40:25 - Speaker 1Tim, you're ignorant slut. 0:40:30 - Speaker 3Yes. 0:40:31 - Speaker 2I'm done. I sort of felt like that the first time I heard it And the more I. This was one where I kept digging Actually I didn't really have to do much work, but just the more I listened to it the more I was like okay, i get it. I get why this was a single. This is a banger on the phrasing on it. The vocal phrasing absolute A. Plus another great car song on the solos, super experimental, like again. It's cool, because it's not. Most of the guitar on this record is not like this. It's not a producer going. 0:41:11 - Speaker 1Okay, boys, let's lay down the solo. This is where we're going to put the solo here. Give me 32 bars, let's go. 0:41:18 - Speaker 232 bars, yeah, like it just it's so cool and it's not like that. And this song is the first although not as much, because there's another one we'll bring up and I'm sure you guys know which one it is But this is the first song where I really hear that the influence this band had on a Linus Morrisette. Oh wow, Oh yeah, There's another song on this record that we'll get to. That is clearly. It's clearly. She was sitting in her room listening to this record prior to recording Jagged Little Pill, like which I can't remember what year that came out. 0:42:04 - Speaker 1What year did that come out? It came out, i want to say the summer of 95 was when the was when she broke, when she exploded. 0:42:13 - Speaker 3Yeah, is she a fan? Is she a fan? 0:42:16 - Speaker 2She's a great musician and she's Canadian, so I would be hard pressed to think she's not. At least, i didn't mind. Oh yeah, she's Canadian. Yeah, you fuck her, stick together. So I saw her live in 2018 in LA and she just, i mean, fucking blew the roof off the place. Oh man, it was, it was, it was insane. 0:42:40 - Speaker 1Anyway, my wife had tickets to the 25th anniversary tour of Jagged Little Pill and it got canceled due to COVID. So, yeah, total drag. Yeah, yeah, okay, yeah, i'm, i'm on your side there, pete. As far as Greasy Jungle goes, next one is a cool thing that I don't know if this is something that pre-existed. You know, i don't know if somebody had taken a photograph and of a dog, you know, with its teeth bared, and wondered aloud if it had been yawning or snarling. Because, like, since that time, i've seen so many photos that I say that line in my head. You know, there's so many photos that they're captured and we feel something right away, but then you have to sort of open your mind and go well, wait a minute, maybe that feeling that I'm feeling isn't the right feeling. You know, it was just the way the photo was captured. It could have been yawning or snarling, and that sort of kicks us off. 0:44:08 - Speaker 5The cops go into the crowd under a glaring platter of light and the music's just so loud and the tourists take their t-shirts off and a bus load of kids and gifts to the finger Afternoon, when the sidewalk's hot and the shadows too chilly to linger. 0:44:50 - Speaker 6Both we're in the escuchians and at the bar, and people are helming Downtown. Never, ever been. 0:45:06 - Speaker 5Now just wait for me, I'm gonna resurface. 0:45:17 - Speaker 6I take a look at this photo girl. I don't know how clearly it's taken away. 0:45:28 - Speaker 5I'm gonna get out of here. I never saw it. The picture is never clear. 0:45:41 - Speaker 6I'm gonna make a decision. I mean an incarceration, i mean so much. One night in El Paso, the cops fall into the crowd Under a throbbing bladder of light And the music is just so loud And the tourists turn their TVs off. The box is apart with the sound of a linger Night time when the shadows come And you tilt to the tips of your fingers. But that's the way it goes in our region. I'm so strong, i'm making a chance Downtown, never ever been. Now just wait for you to resurface. Take a look at this photograph. How clearly it's taken away. He could have been the artist, not an artist. This picture is never clear. I'm so good at this photo, girl. How clearly it's taken away. I'm gonna get out of here. 0:47:48 - Speaker 5I'm in a slumber. The story is never clear. Walks right into a Mardi Gras parade. We're touring the south at the bottom of the beard. 0:48:28 - Speaker 2Yonnie and Snarling I first listened to. This record was my favorite song And that was, with my, everything I love about Grace too, it starts out very mad season. I don't know if you know that band. 0:48:52 - Speaker 1Yeah, that was the supergroup right. 0:48:54 - Speaker 2Yeah, that was the supergroup of Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains And that record. When did that record come out? Did it come out in 1993? Maybe, so they were active in 1994 to 1996, So maybe it's the same time, I don't know. Anyway, it starts out like the first and it builds. I don't know. I just loved it. I could say so much about the instrumentation, But lyrically, I don't know if you've got a line on exactly what it's about JD, But there's some historical references in there And talking about El Paso, he brings up the Mexican US border there. I'm pretty sure that runs through the 100th Meridian, Oh wow now, i know that. I could be wrong, but it just kind of feels like it's going, like Cordoni's really going in. He's a big fan of these historical references. I don't know, i dug it. What's saying you, tim? 0:50:11 - Speaker 3I dug it. I think when I first heard it started up I was thinking Okay, here's the spooky, sinister Pipps song of the album Which we often get. You know, if any song that I hear I hear a reference about El Paso or the Rio Grande, it's usually something heavy. It's not about going tubing and fishing and having fun. So yeah, there's a line in there about the cops go into the crowd Throbbing bladder of light. You know, i'd love that phrase, throbbing bladder of light. The music is so loud nighttime when the shadows cough Like this. Lyrically, the song's loaded, it's just it's really really big. I just, you know, somebody beat up and throw it in the river. This is an early song there's a moody guitar ending, i think throughout the song. The bass to me I'm always kind of honing in. It's funny because Pete's on guitar and I'm on bass and drums, which is cool, but the bass is a little punchier, like it's tuned up or I don't know. This one had definitely some home, you know, if they recorded it in the house. I'm just gonna call it home production because it's basically what it was, even if it was like Super Pro Studio, like there's some little things in there that I heard for sure. It's an interesting song. It's pretty cool It was. It's kind of an early song to me. I stuck with it a few times. 0:51:58 - Speaker 1Cool. What's next? It's number five. We're at five. Fire in the hole. 0:52:07 - Speaker 3Yeah, let's fire. Fire in the hole is fucking cool. And I say that because I heard kind of this 90s grungy punk influence with this one, even though it's not like super fast or anything. But then when I started reading into it, you know, because I figured it had something to do with fascism and Nazis And I don't know. There's something you know angry here. There's some different ties to Sonic Youth's Youth, sonic Youth's Youth Against Fascism song. It's very I don't want to say very similar, but there's definitely some things shared. You know, that was a time for me. It was a time of really getting into, like crunchy guitars, a little bit more experimentation, faster rhythms. You know this song, for a hip song maybe, is like a little bit tougher. It's a little bit tougher. And I also just thought you know by its own name and chorus that this one is probably ruckus live. It's probably just fun and, you know, fist in the air. 0:53:30 - Speaker 2Yeah, i agree, i agree, this is a banger for sure. The guitar work on it I definitely. I mean it's weird, i don't know because I'm not the biggest Guns N' Roses fan, but you know, slash's Les Paul guitar tone is pretty distinct, you know, when you hear it, and the guitar tone on this song that he's playing some lines sounds, i mean, identical. It doesn't sound like Guns N' Roses, of course the song doesn't, but that guitar tone just was so reminiscent of that And it kind of made me think, okay, so they're like trying to, they're trying to shed some older skin from the previous records, but you know, it's sort of like you can take the. You know, take the what out of the what, but you can't take the what out of the what. They still got it in their roots. You know what I mean. 0:54:35 - Speaker 1Yeah. 0:54:38 - Speaker 2So that's definitely there. And then, yeah, this is one like the obviously Grace too. I mean that's sort of like the flagship of this record. But this is another song where you're like, okay, gord's found his voice. He's really, you know, If the band is his recliner, like whenever he gets up, you can see his ass imprint. It is always there. He's found his voice. The chair is sunk. It's sunk in. Does that make sense What I'm trying to say? Yeah, he's. Yeah, he's been in that chair so long now for a number of records that it's just comforts Like he's found it. 0:55:29 - Speaker 1He knows where he's at. He's in the groove. He's in the groove Like he's absolutely. And to me, guys, isn't this the heaviest that we've ever heard them. Or is there something on Foley that might be? No, i think you're right, i do. 0:55:46 - Speaker 3I think it's up there. I think it's up there. 0:55:48 - Speaker 1Yeah, because you were saying fast and I was thinking to my head, I was like yeah, it is fast. It's fast and heavy, Like this is a great song alive. 0:55:54 - Speaker 2This is like Foo Fighters, Fast Like I was like whoa. 0:55:59 - Speaker 1Yeah, because it's still, it's still. 0:56:05 - Speaker 3It's interesting. You went to guns and roses. I don't know why I didn't go there Like I. Just I didn't hear that reference, but I want to go back. 0:56:14 - Speaker 2Just the guitar, just the guitar time. 0:56:17 - Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:56:19 - Speaker 2For me oftentimes that doesn't mean something positive, Just yeah you know, outside of them anybody else I hear sounding like remotely like guns and roses. You just kind of go, eh you know. But I think it was just weird that Tom was there because coming up the hip I feel were such a that was. That was what most bands were sounding like back then. 0:56:49 - Speaker 3I don't know. Yeah, maybe 50 mission cap or something. Oh yeah, yeah, this one, you know. 0:56:56 - Speaker 1Yeah, you might be right, You might be and you might be so hard done by. 0:57:00 - Speaker 2So hard done by. To be honest with you, this is probably my least favorite of the of the record. Hey, we're in the break. Yeah, i just didn't. Yeah, i thought it was, i thought it was a cool chorus, but I just I kept thinking about, like, what would I say about the song? And it's just, you know, maybe in the 10 year reunion by then I'll have something. but this song, sorry, i wish I had I had more for it, but I really just don't. 0:57:42 - Speaker 3I'm with you a bit. I heard Allison Chains right away And I don't think it's like it's not like 100% Allison Chains. That's who I thought of And I'm starting to hear, you know, and occasional references to bands that we're doing well during this time And I'm not a big Allison Chains fan by any means, but it's. you know, there's still some lyric nuggets in here I love. you'll have to wait a minute. It's an en somatic Like. that to me is kind of a phrase of if you want, you know, beauty in life, it's not going to come to you right away. You got to, you got to deal. The ending is kind of rough. You know the yeah, i'm with you, pete. The ending is kind of rough. The snare is too snappy. The snare is like so snappy that it's like that's how you tune a snare for fucking punk rock songs with a high beat per minute. You know it just didn't. it just didn't. 0:58:45 - Speaker 1It's funny that you say that, because the original, like the demo version of this song is totally up tempo. Well so it's. It's a completely different song Me I. I think this is, i think it's fine, i think it's harkens back to like, like it could be on up to here, it could be on road apples. To me it's got that sleazy, not quite stone Z vibe. So I was really surprised to hear you say Alison chains, because I'm I'm going more of like the roots. You know, okay, that's, that's my vibe of John, but but that's, you know, this one, that's just how it was for sure. 0:59:30 - Speaker 3More filler had a rough ending and I was kind of glad it was like, okay, what's next? You want to? you want to add something, pete. 0:59:37 - Speaker 2Oh, all I was going to say was You know, that'd be cool if it was. I mean, maybe it is cool live. And I just just to comment that I always hate when you hear a band play a live version of a song and it's just fucking killer And that's the first way you hear it. And then you hear the studio version and it just absolutely blows. 0:59:59 - Speaker 3So yeah, i'm, i'm with you, I'm with you. Maybe this is that? 1:00:03 - Speaker 2But to answer your question, JD, what's next is not cool. I've actually heard JD sing this song. 1:00:12 - Speaker 1Oh, that's right, I did it. I did it for a, i did it for a hip podcast, like I do a pod list, just like I do for medium alchemists And I sang it. Is that that was right? Yeah, yeah. 1:00:27 - Speaker 3I dug it, I thought it. I thought it was what's, what's that pod JD had that he took off. It was like JD sings in the shower, Was it that one? 1:00:36 - Speaker 2That's what I wanted. Jd sings in the shower. There was a. There was a. There was a video version of the podcast too, but that was yeah that was that, the lovely fans. No, i remember hearing this and the first time you sent it to me I think I was already living in Malaga. But great tune, i, you know this, and JD, you, you, you explained to me what this song was about and I've since forgotten because my brain doesn't work anymore at my age, but I did get. I think the reason why we started talking about it in the first place was because we I mentioned to you the another great Canadian singer, gordon Lightfoot's Right, ricky Deven, if it's Gerald. And so you, you brought this song up and that's kind of how it came into my, my atmosphere, my airspace if you will. 1:01:44 - Speaker 1Well, those are forever linked for me, because the first time I saw this song played live Gordon, he introduced it live as a Canadian musician, would be complete without a song about a nautical disaster. 1:02:04 - Speaker 5This song is called nautical disaster. These are the Dh과a stations for brokers. 1:02:36 - Speaker 6NotOf cybersecurity. This is Darryl, i don't wanna sweat. Ha. What's wrong? What's going on? Can't tell yourself I'm a foreign team. He said hang on, just stop, shut your big mouth and gotta do what you feel is real. He got no peace and false gods Got no Sunni, my baby. She won't know me when I'm thinking about music. I'm a foreign team. Keep it going, man. 1:04:11 - Speaker 7Let's keep the wagon wheel going. Alright, i had this dream where I relished the fray And the screaming filled my head all day. I felt as though I'd been spinned here, Settled in into the pocket. 1:04:44 - Speaker 6In a lighthouse on some rocky socket Of the coast of France, dear One afternoon. Four thousand men died in the water Here And five hundred more repression, matthew, is parasite's life In your blood. Now I'm in a lifeboat Designed for ten. Ten on me. Anything that's systematic Would get you hated. It's not a deal, nor a test, Nor a love of something stated. The selection was quick, the crew was in order And those left in the water Got kicked off the padlock And we headed home. 1:06:24 - Speaker 7And in the dream and when the phone rings, we're doing alright. 1:06:30 - Speaker 6I set it out there Those days and nights, but only a fool would complain. Anyway, susan, if you'd like A conversation To say myself, in my memory Is those fingertips Scratching on my heart, and I'm in a lifeboat Designed for ten. Ten on me. 1:07:41 - Speaker 7Anything that's systematic Would get you hated. It's not a deal, nor a test, nor a love of something stated, no matter how hard it is. You see how hard it is, it's real hard. 1:08:27 - Speaker 5There's a lifeboat Hanging on a wire Sucking up to someone, just a stoke of fire. 1:08:35 - Speaker 7Picking up the highlights of the scenery, saw some little clouds. 1:08:50 - Speaker 5They looked a little like me. I had my hands in the river, my feet back up from banks, looked up to the Lord above, said he'd call me thanks. Some times I feel so good I've got to scream. Said 40 baby, i know exactly what you mean, he said. He said I swear to God. He said Now, now. 1:09:27 - Speaker 6Now, okay, my memory Was my dear watch's river that I nailed. If near or leave a sink in there, then I don't wanna swear Swag, swag, swag, swag. 1:10:42 - Speaker 1Swag, swag, and then they launch into New Orleans' sinking. Oh my gosh, and you're sorta like what? What's going on? And then, in the middle of New Orleans' sinking, is this brand new song, fully fleshed out, not a? 1:11:00 - Speaker 3good one. You know, i read about this And it's fucking holy crap. 1:11:07 - Speaker 1It is a tornado Like it is, so destructive. 1:11:14 - Speaker 3And you know, there's not many bands Who perform live that do Extremely intentional things like that For the audience. There's not many bands that do that Doing something like that, mixing in a new song in the middle of a song People know And then did they circle back? 1:11:31 - Speaker 1Yeah, They finished, then they finished all of these things. 1:11:34 - Speaker 3That's just insane to me. I just love, i just love, love, love that. I just love that. If any, if any songwriters are out there, do that for me. When I come here you live, mix me in a new one. It's a treat, right? Yeah, because it's the opposite of going to a show And hearing a band play Like their album. You know, i've walked out of shows Because it's just boring as fuck. You know, i'll say this about In 18. I believe it was built to spill. Oh my gosh, it was like I could have just put on One of their records and sat at home. So, yeah, to be able to split in another song And keep going and mix it up And do all these things that are so creative And have the confidence to do that, and phew. 1:12:30 - Speaker 2The only thing I'll say in defensive built to spill Is there's always. 1:12:34 - Speaker 3Oh, everybody defends. Built to spill. 1:12:36 - Speaker 2No, no, i'm only saying it live I've never seen them live. Only because they always have a new line up. It's only a singer They do. They do. So if I'm a guy sitting in And part of the band this time around, the only thing I know is the record, because that's probably how they play together, which that's uh. Yeah, my buddy's seen them live And he kind of had the same feeling as you did. 1:13:01 - Speaker 1Same feeling as you did, i'm just starting to get into built. 1:13:04 - Speaker 3Yeah, sorry, bds fans. There you have it. There's another fan that wants to punch me in the gut. Not a cool disaster, i think it's fucking cool. Like my sentiment right away was like Here's the epic storytelling TH song. Here The drums it was like beating. Like we're charging into war Lifeboat designed for ten and ten. Only You know. There's just all these Great metaphors in there for like I don't know. 1:13:34 - Speaker 1Oh, i love the line about getting The remaining people in the water Getting kicked off at Antler. Oh man, i don't know why. Yeah, and this song, there's no structure, there's no verse, there's no chorus, it's just literally Like you said, tim, it's like a story. 1:13:51 - Speaker 3Yeah yeah, i don't know who the Susan reference is. I didn't look too much into that part, like, towards the end there's something about Susan Which I don't know why. With this band, whenever they mention a woman I'm always like. 1:14:03 - Speaker 1She's Evelyn's sister. 1:14:04 - Speaker 3Because it's often something grim. But you know this song there's. There's lots of data in there. This could be a rabbit hole song. It wasn't so much for me, just because I thought it was awesome. 1:14:19 - Speaker 1You're right, it is awesome. It's fucking awesome. Maybe I'm out and we're actually more song for the band. Where do we go next? Um Thugs? 1:14:28 - Speaker 2This is gonna sound really strange, but first of all, i love the chorus on this song. That's fantastic. I really dug this song a lot. It's ironic that it's called thugs and the baseline is a slowed-down version of Grandmaster flashes a message yes or yes? 1:14:54 - Speaker 3Whoa, I didn't go that deep, but I knew it was something like I. I felt there was something go out on in this song And I didn't know what I was you know, i didn't know what it was, but Uh, you keep going it's a deep, deep. 1:15:09 - Speaker 2There's clearly a deep admiration for Grandmaster flash Going on here and The. this the we reference to JD. You mentioned that this is the song where, or this is the record where, you realized they're actually a wee band out of your band. 1:15:30 - Speaker 1Um, yeah, it sort of. It sort of happened at the same time to me as well, no, but you know, there's the reference about All roll or rolling. I'll do the details, you do the roll and I'll do the details. I'm sorry about that. That's all right. 1:15:48 - Speaker 2Yeah, that's, that's kind of where. That's kind of Where I thought on that, the Again the chorus awesome, uh, there's. He keeps doing this high, are you know? it doesn't a couple times and on the record but he does like a high-pitched whoo And this song, that's really cool. And The spacey reverb Guitar is just like. I couldn't think of the song that it reminded me of or the artist, but it's, there's so much reverb on this on that guitar, it's like It's insane. 1:16:26 - Speaker 1Love it, love love, love this one. Yes, it's, yeah, you can swim in it Well said. Yeah, yeah. Where are you on thugs? 1:16:34 - Speaker 3You know I I Felt it was a little bit filler. You know I I didn't get a whole lot from this one I when I Started looking into kind of the movie references or what they get up trying to figure out When I was trying to figure out. You know any details About this song that could make me get into it more? I read and I've read this before, the quote from gourd, that if that's what you think it's about, then that's what it's about Sure, which made me think for this song. Okay, if it's. You know if I think gourd would tell me hey man, if you, if you don't dig this song, then maybe you should try Inevitability of death. You know, if you want to get heavier, then go here. If you don't, you don't get heavy with thugs and let's give you a song about struggling with cancer, which is, i think, inevitability of death. You know, there's what I enjoyed about this song is they mix it up a little bit. You know there's a Chorus singing without drums. You know they're starting to do little creative things on this album That I think help make it stand out and keep my interests more. That's kind of what I, yeah, that's kind of what I've noticed. But then you know, i think everybody probably knows anybody, or sorry, anyone knows someone is diet of cancer and maybe that's what this is about about and living life. You know, trying to Do everything to your fullest. I'm not sure about this. The song was, it was a good jam, it was it was. 1:18:17 - Speaker 1You know what you're not. You're not Far off the track. I don't think, though, when, when you say that about cancer but that would be just so terribly ironic you know Writing a song about that and then succumbing to that illness. You know all those. 1:18:38 - Speaker 3Yeah, exactly. 1:18:40 - Speaker 1Because it came on suddenly. It wasn't something he battled with for very long. It came on suddenly and he was gone, wow, other than a other than a cross-canada tour. But well, you just think, puffy lips, glistening skin, yeah, everything comes rushing in. That could be like reference to, like the chemotherapy you know, like rushing into your body. You know We don't go to hell, just yeah. I love the. I also just love the word play. I thought you'd be the death of inevitability to death just a little bit. I thought you'd be the inevitability of death to death just a little bit like. I love how it's inverted Mm-hmm, very cool, very cool. 1:19:21 - Speaker 2And he makes it work it's crazy that you say like puffy lips and glistening skin. I'm thinking of a. I'm thinking of like Scarlett Johansson and in a bikini like that's who. I'm like. That's right where I went when I heard that. That's so. I'm not even joking. 1:19:43 - Speaker 1That's like what I thought say, could have been yonder somebody somebody just came from LA, i think. 1:19:51 - Speaker 2It's been any time with Scarlett, though The I dig this song It's. It's not one of my favorites, but this was the song that Clearly did the one I mentioned earlier that that Alanis drew a lot of The word play and the way he phrases it is It's. It's exactly what she does in the song. You ought to know like it's. It's 100%. You can't Can't deny it. I'm sure if you had a gun to read she'd say yes, of course It's worth it. She's got the inspiration on. I. 1:20:33 - Speaker 1Don't think it would go that far, just just for the record. No, yeah, if you were interviewing her you would probably, i probably, i probably just ask her. 1:20:39 - Speaker 2Yeah, she seems like a nice person. 1:20:43 - Speaker 3Let's, let's, let's have her guest on the next one. 1:20:45 - Speaker 1He's gonna you have. You have that up, jady Yeah. 1:20:47 - Speaker 3Yeah. 1:20:48 - Speaker 1Yeah, I like the bass that. 1:20:49 - Speaker 2I think the chords are a little bit more. I think the chords are a little bit monotonous. The line if you go to hell, i'll still remember you, that's just. That's a really fucking cool line. But The bass starts to shine at the end, which is cool because because the chords are so I guess I've been honest the bass really isn't doing much, but then it does something that that only Tim Hates is more than I do. It's just faith. 1:21:27 - Speaker 3You know, i will say some of the hip, some of the hips, fadeouts are better than others. Okay, they've had they've had some oh dare I tragic fadeouts oh. I use that because I hate fade out so much. 1:21:47 - Speaker 2Jady, can you, can you You edit this in? can you, can you do that? 1:21:55 - Speaker 3That's funny. You mentioned that cuz a couple weeks ago, jd. I said to JD you know, sometimes I just want to add in a sound effect, like You know, and he's like you do not do that on my podcast, i hate sound effects, because I'm even thinking. 1:22:14 - Speaker 1You know, when you were talking earlier, you were talking about The bass being slowed down from Grandmaster Flash, like, oh, i could intercut. I could intercut like the Grandmaster Flash song so people could hear it. 1:22:27 - Speaker 2But then it's like It's so noticeable man, i mean it's it's so noticeable. It's exact same bass line, but anyway. 1:22:37 - Speaker 1Next song, though. So then we slow it down with scared. 1:22:41 - Speaker 3This that's so scared for me is it's like a. I instantly went to. This song would be an amazing concert concert closer. You know it's. It comes on, you know the night's finishing, it might be the what else? songs. You close your eyes at some point and just listen and get in deep. You know it's, there's, it's layered and story from I don't know Russia and the Germans and Stalin and Trying to make culture and art disappeared and like housekeepers and all these different things. It's like it's. It's. It's a sad kind of beautiful song that It's a little bit of a usual makeup for them with this kind of section of the album, but I thought it was, you know, on that note, kind of dark and lovely overall. 1:23:37 - Speaker 1What do you think, sir? 1:23:39 - Speaker 2I wasn't. I thought this was kind of like just a token. If you will token slow tune like It didn't do it for me, like When it comes to like softer hip songs, like it didn't give me the same Warm, fuzzy feeling is like fiddler's green did. 1:24:02 - Speaker 1Sure, okay, yeah, i mean, fiddler's green is a knockout pie. It is, but my god scared. I love this song really good. 1:24:10 - Speaker 2Maybe it's just positioning on the record, i don't know. I've got a Spend some more time with it and in this was actually one song. There's a couple of tunes. I didn't Get to hear the car, yeah, towards the end, because my car rides weren't as long and they started the record. I would put the first song on when I got in the car, so if I wasn't driving for a long time, obviously the song story the other record didn't didn't didn't make it in the in the car, but there was something really weird on this song. There was a Spacey sort of keyboard sound that kept going off. You know I'm talking about. 1:24:54 - Speaker 3I know, now I don't really yeah, the only thing that certainly stood out to me was the use of acoustic guitars. There's, you know that's. That was a little unusual. I don't remember keyboards. 1:25:05 - Speaker 2There's some sort of keyboard effect going on in there. That is Like the only thing I can equate it to is like you know the. It's like an oscillated version of. You know the sound of the, the metal hitting the, the track on the song. It's a sound of the men working on the chain game. Yeah, it's like it. It's like an echoey, delayed, oscillated, real subtle Vert Sample of that or something, something similar to that, and it's done with the keyboards and said it's on the song 100%. 1:25:46 - Speaker 1Huh, i've got to listen with these headphones. 1:25:49 - Speaker 2But yeah it's. It was a cool song. I dug it and I kind of wish I had more of a feeling the way you guys do about it. But you know it's okay there just hope for you. 1:25:59 - Speaker 1There's hope for you, peter. From there we go to an inch an hour, and this song always impressed me, because the math works out an In an hour today the same way, an inch an hour to feed a day, to moan tonight in this most professional way. 1:26:57 - Speaker 5There's this fucking band. You gotta see they used to care about living shit. I see no profit in talk. No food in town, no rock and roll, no bestiality. 1:27:10 - Speaker 6Makes me feel the same way. An inch an hour to feed a day, to moan tonight with their little mouth to say But our health is best with the people in the space. No stuff of town, no feed you through, no salt on the tev. It works through Making lots and moogs. 1:27:49 - Speaker 5Tonight I'm gonna win and make this gift heart. I want you to see your breath in the spring side. Heart, coffee colors, ice and feeling. First part Sound. The rushing water in the dark Makes me feel the same way. 1:28:06 - Speaker 6An inch an hour to feed a day, to moan tonight with their little mouth to say But our health is best with the people in the space. I mean our health is best with the people in the space. You see, i don't know me. I don't know me at all, i don't know myself. 1:28:47 - Speaker 1I don't know myself. I don't know myself. What did you think of this? 1:29:06 - Speaker 2one. I love the. I don't know if I paid attention to it in the other records, or I'm just hearing this now, or this is the first time they're really doing it, but I feel like the guitar is falling the vocal line, or the vocal line is falling the guitar a little bit more, which is cool, like the melody of what Gord's singing. I thought it was a fucking banger. Again, this is another one where he's like yelping. I can only say yelping because he's not screaming but he's saying oh, oh, like really multiple times during the song. Anyway, i love it. I thought this song would probably be a really good opener. I don't know if they ever opened with it, but Definitely thought it would be a good opener. 1:30:07 - Speaker 3I think this one I was anticipating, without even knowing it, after listening to Scared. Scared was like this epic kind of novel, three-part novel to get through And when an inch and hour came on in the car, within seconds was turning it way up Like. This is one that I kind of needed. With the placement in the album, it truly so. I read that it's potentially, or possibly, if it's about a fan who wrote a fan letter to the band. Supposedly this guy claims to come home at the end of his night shift every day. He would go buy some beer and sit on the stoop of his apartment And just crank tragically hip and drink beers. And he was thumbing through one of their albums and saw an address to write letters into

I'm on the 106 bus riding from York University to Wilson Station. during my first year at the institution, i was on a mission to pick up the latest effort by my favourite band, the highly anticipated Day for Night. Since mid-summer of 1993, i'd been going bananas over the song Nautical Disaster, first introduced to me during my 19th birthday. It was at another roadside attraction, and as the band launched into New Orleans as Syncon they jammed through the now classic cut in spectacular fashion. However, it wasn't until the Kumbaya Festival early in September of that same year that I finally heard the track on tape. My friend Heather had come home from university having recorded the festival on DHS. We quickly dubbed the video to cassette and now I was off to the races From there. it took until Canada Day of 1994 before I heard anything else from the record. The hip played the gig with a chip on their shoulder, as many of the fans had acted brorish and disrespectful towards many of the opening acts, including Daniel and Locke. The set was heavily peppered with songs from Day for Night and I liked what I heard. As I got off the subway and approached HMV, it was nearing midnight. The new album would be in my hands soon and I could listen without the distraction of frapples throwing bottles towards the stage. From the first notes of Grace II, this one felt different, especially after the slick polish of fully completely or the bar blues of the prior two records. This was a band hitting its stride and understanding exactly where it fit into the fabric of the rock and roll paradigm. But that was then. Today I'm tasked with taking Pete and Tim into my memories and hoping to goodness this one sticks the landing for them. We'll soon find out on this episode of Getting Hip to the Hip. Long Sliced Brewery Presents Getting Hip to the Hip. Hey, it's JD here and welcome to Getting Hip to the Hip, a Tragically Hip podcast where we go through the discography of the hip with two folks who have never heard of the band before. So, while they're having their first experience listening to the music, you can revisit yours. Send me an email, jd, at GettingHipToTheHipcom, with your first experience with the Tragically Hip. It would be great to hear those, as we listen to Pete and Tim, describe theirs. Speaking of Pete and Tim, they are most certainly ready to be released from their protective hatches. I will push the button now and they are there. They are on their platforms. they're they're levitating platforms. How are you doing, fellas? 0:05:22 - Speaker 2Hey guys, Oh sorry. 0:05:26 - Speaker 1He nodded his head. 0:05:29 - Speaker 2I nodded my head for all you out there in radio land. 0:05:32 - Speaker 3That's my favorite aspect of podcasts. 0:05:35 - Speaker 1He loves theater of the mind. Sorry about that. Yeah, that's great. What's new? 0:05:42 - Speaker 2Oh man, it's new. Back in the saddle, man, you know. back to work today, like I said, struggling with a little bit of jet lag, but other than that, i mean I, i how much time we got JD. I could. Could tell you a lot of what's going on, but I don't know. Put you guys to sleep, tim. What's going on with you man? 0:06:08 - Speaker 3Oh, just cranking on. the week getting started here And last week was, to be honest, kind of rough, so I'm hoping this week's good. That's. that's what I'm counting on. 0:06:18 - Speaker 1Fingers across for you, fellas, both of you, to avail yourself from the. Jag, the Jag lat the jet lag and for you to feel better this week. 0:06:29 - Speaker 2Did you try to? did you try to call me a jackoff right now? 0:06:33 - Speaker 1Is that what you're trying to call me? No, i said jet lag, but I said it wrong. Jag lift, jag off. Yeah, i'm all right, i can't complain. We've got a new puppy dog and she's pretty awesome So far. She's having a nap on the bed right now. She spent the morning in her crate, so you know, we've been letting her run free this afternoon, or I have been letting her run free this afternoon. So, yeah, that's really irrespective of nothing. But Who named her? I did. 0:07:09 - Speaker 2Nice. 0:07:10 - Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, that's my last naming job that I get to do, though. 0:07:15 - Speaker 2I gotta ask you, michael Keaton, george Clooney, val Kilmer, christian Bale, robert Pattinson- I guess I'm a bailperson at this point. I would have. I would have also. The judges would have also accepted Adam West Michael. 0:07:34 - Speaker 1Keaton. Oh, adam West, yeah, sure, sure, yeah. 0:07:39 - Speaker 2Michael Keaton. Michael Keaton was great, but yeah, christian Bale was. Those movies were so amazing. 0:07:43 - Speaker 1Oh, it was Batmania, just Batmania, when Keaton and Tim Burton put that whole thing together. 0:07:52 - Speaker 2Oh yeah, Tim, were you a fan. 0:07:54 - Speaker 3No opinion. 0:07:55 - Speaker 2Okay, you're fleeting the fifth on this one. 0:07:59 - Speaker 1Yeah, no opinion, okay. So we're here today to talk about the fourth long play from the Tragically HIP, their fifth output at this point. This came out in 1994, to be exact, it came out the third week of my first year of university and they did a midnight album release. So, like all the record stores were open, they would be open all day and then they would close at nine and then they would reopen at midnight so they could sell the record, because it was the next day, it was Tuesday, so it was like Monday night at midnight you would go and get the record before anybody else. 0:08:42 - Speaker 2I remember that Tower used to do that too. 0:08:44 - Speaker 1Right, it was a cool fad and it's just. 0:08:48 - Speaker 2you know it's got like It was Tuesday you said right, That's right. 0:08:51 - Speaker 1Records always came out on Tuesdays. 0:08:53 - Speaker 2And there's a reason for that, and somebody told me the reason. I can't remember, but there was a reason. There's a distinct reason why that was the case, right. 0:09:01 - Speaker 1Okay. Well, if you out there know what it is, use social and let us know. Or shoot us an email at JD, pete or Tim at getting hip to the hipcom. This record means a lot to me. So you know, i'm not going to. I'm not going to beat around the bush this time. Or I am going to no, i'm not going to beat around the bush this time, i'm going to lay it all out right now and say I fucking love this record. So you know, let that not impact your scores. But there may be some arguments because it's just got the, it's got the crisscross of hitting a sweet spot for me with my favorite band at the time and coming out temporarily at just the right time you know to to build a culture around. you know it was produced by the hip with assistance from Howard and Freakin I believe it's Mark Howard and Mark Freakin. Freakin I want to say sound guy for the hip You can listen to fully and completely to get the all, the, all, the detailed information. We always went through that stuff in a big way on that show And this is not what this one's about. This is an addendum. So the label was MCA. This is again another MCA release for the hip Looks in at a record 59 minutes 26 seconds, you know, just a almost an hour. Singles It had six singles. Grace, two was a single, it was the first. One came out right before the record dropped. Greasy jungle was the second one. Nautical disaster was the third one. So hard done by then scared, and then thugs, and I believe that thugs was almost, you know, a full year after the record came out. So this one had legs. All music rated this record a 3.5 or part of me a three out of five, much lower than fully completely, which was the record before this, which got a 4.5 out of five. So a three. Very interesting, very, very interesting, grace. Start off the top with your initial thoughts on this record, mr Leiden. 0:11:32 - Speaker 3I felt it was long, you know, and realize pretty quickly that we were getting some extra songs. What else about it? I did notice some recording kind of changes or uplifts as far as production value goes, which is cool. What else about it? There are some certain songs on there which I absolutely dug. I ended up listening to the first half of the album several times I want to say struggled through to get through the whole album in a sitting, but I just kept finding myself starting over at certain points. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So we can talk about that more. 0:12:16 - Speaker 1I mean, it's definitely a long record, And could I edit this record? Sure, i could. I'm not going to ever say which songs I would potentially edit out, because they're all my babies and I just couldn't say it, but I secretly know which ones I'd get rid of. Tim, you have been looking for an album. You've been searching for an album throughout this podcast. You know you've talked about Pizza with the Works, you've talked about Mishmash's and collections of songs produced together to round out an album, but it seems to me as though you are seeking not necessarily a concept, but a conceit, and I would have thought that paid off with fully, completely. It didn't. So how about this record? I? 0:13:06 - Speaker 3don't think I'm quite there yet, but I'm close. Okay, i was expecting this album to be maybe more, maybe more concise, since they were driving and had more control, i don't know. I think that just the fact that it was a couple songs longer in the cadence of all the songs and really looking at where their place and all those things that I like to do, you know, it checked a lot of boxes for me, but I didn't. I didn't finish listening to it in a take and go oh yeah, now I'm here. Pretty close though, but I'm pretty close, jd, tell us, tell us, you know, when it came out at 12.01, were you in line buying it, or when did you listen to it? Like, what do you recall from your first listen to this album and how you felt and why it's your fave? 0:14:00 - Speaker 1Well, again, it's got that crossroads right of like culture and time and place And they were my favorite band so it was like so exciting to be in Toronto and buying it right away, because before I would have had to buy it the next day, there had been some concerts leading up to the release of this record where they had dribbled some breadcrumbs of what this record was going to entail And it was so cool to hear it And, more importantly for me, after the very slick sounding fully, completely, i love the. Well, you guys both know that I'm into lo-fi music and this isn't necessarily lo-fi, but this sounds much more self-produced, right Like. It sounds like it's recorded by people who are making their first record in a good way, in a really good way, like it's so fresh sounding after what. The last group of records that we heard were more slick and polished and that sort of bar rock thing. I've always said. This was the record where the Tragically Hip revealed that it hasn't been beer that's been fueling them all these years. It's weed, like they're a total weed band, and this record was the first one that reminded me of that. The rest of the records are sort of beer Okay okay, you know. Yeah, i've had 30 years to gestate on that, though, so bear that in mind. Now Pete has blood pouring out of his mouth right now. He's chewing his tongue off. You know He's dying to jump in here. What does he have to say about all this hullabaloo? 0:15:43 - Speaker 2Well, real quick. You mentioned that this was three out of five, and fully and completely was 4.5 out of five. Who's the company? 0:15:55 - Speaker 1I always use all music. I always use all music, all music, yeah. 0:15:59 - Speaker 2Yeah, they got their heads up their asses, because I don't even remotely see how this is less on the point scale than fully and completely, because I thought this record was fucking awesome. I agree that I felt the same way. That kind of Tim felt that it was a bit lengthy. I felt myself starting at a number of times and struggling a little bit to get through some ladder parts. There's certainly some areas where they could trim the fat, if you will. I'm not going to say which ones they are, but it was like for a band that's producing their first. It's their first go at producing a record themselves. It's kind of like it's just a little too much. It's like going out on a great first date, dinner's great, movie's great go back to the house. Sex is great. Oh, first date That your date's like hey, do you ever want to have kids? You know, it's like. It's like totally could've just done without saying that and the night would've been perfect. Like they just say that, they just ask that. Like on their way out It's like, oh, okay, doesn't mean you're not going to go out with them again, but it's, you know, i love it. I love it. 0:17:30 - Speaker 3I'll leave it there for now to let you say You know, i'll just quickly add on that very you know, very similar token that I had with it. I'm curious to hear the next albums And then to again look back at specific albums to see how I feel about them, because this is probably one. You know you are so excited. You know there's a trilogy of movies coming out on something that you love And you see the first one and you're like God, i hope the next two movies are just as good. Maybe the next one is pretty good or better, and you're like, oh shit, this is going to be great. You know, it's kind of I'm leaning towards that. I'm excited to revisit some of these to see how I feel in a couple of months. Hopefully I won't be like dude, i'm done you guys. No, that's not going to be the case. But yeah, i'm anxious to revisit the future for sure, because this is probably one of those albums. 0:18:30 - Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, i'll be interested to see that too. Maybe again we will have like a 10 year reunion. Pete mentioned that in the last episode. You know we should go back 10 years. Oh, we might. So who knows, maybe we will revisit this on whatever platform the kids are listening to in the future. I'm sure they'll be nuclear powered or something OK. So here's something new An intro song that doesn't just like open with a kick to your ass. It opens in a much different way. It still manages to kick your ass, but in a much different way. It doesn't have like a lick off the top like little bones or courage for human clenin, you know. It just doesn't have or blow a high dough. It doesn't have that same sort of whoop in the butt. It's a taste of like this is what you're going to get. I think You know it's a little bit of like setting the table. It's because you're listening to it and you're like whoa, this isn't the hip that I left behind a year and a half ago. 0:20:08 - Speaker 6Come on, just let's go. She kind of bit her left Geez, I don't know. But I can guarantee That we're now not gonna do. I'm told no proof That we're not gonna do. That's what I'm here for. I come from downtown. I'm already familiar. I'm with the low and weaks of our nation. That's what I'm here for. 0:21:46 - Speaker 7The secret rules of engagement are hard to endure. 0:21:57 - Speaker 6When the appearance of conflict again surrender means the appearance of force. Uncle, uncle, i can guarantee, i can guarantee There'll be no knock on the door. I can guarantee. I'm total proud. That's what I'm prepared for. Yeah, i've come from downtown. I'm ready for you. I'm ready to scale. And it's frustration. I'm ready to scale. And it's frustration. I'm ready to scale. And it's frustration. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. 0:25:07 - Speaker 7No, no, no, no, no, no. Thank you, music lovers. On behalf of our crew the finest crew in the business, ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of Robbie Gordy, johnny Paul, mr Jim Bryson on Keys, us musicians and the crew and everybody here tonight, we want to thank you. Thank you, music lovers. Thank you and Merci beaucoup. Summer on. Summer on take care of each other, drive the speed limit, wear a life jacket. 0:26:24 - Speaker 2Summer on you mentioned setting the table and I agree. And it's saying that it's a different band. That's like the one of the first things that wrote down. I feel like to be honest with you. I like this song so much. I feel like kind of it's just stupid even talking about it like it's such an honestly, it's a fucking banger. And I think I had sent to you guys in the group text like the SNL performance of this song. Yeah, it's just, it's jaw-dropping. Yeah, it's. It's the line about just. I looked at the phrasing, i looked at the lyrics and the way he did he wrote the lyrics and it's just so cool. Sorry, i wish I could articulate it better, but the rules of engagement are hard to endorse. Yeah, like is this I read a little bit online that it was you know about like a man propositioning a prostitute or a young girl. But I'm also like, is this a song about war? is this like an anti-war line that he's throwing in there? is it a double and tongue girl? I don't know, but I don't know. I could say a million things about this song, but I'll hand it over to to mr Leiden. 0:27:54 - Speaker 3I'm. I'm pretty much in the same boat. I heard this song and I immediately thought this is a stellar hip song. I can't wait to hear the rest of the album. But instead of like really going to the rest of the album, i immediately found the first live version I could find on a Google search, because I thought this song is, is gotta be, you know, quintessential live hip song and that's that's kind of where I went and I ended up finding the, the Woodstock 99. If you guys haven't watched any of the documentary about Woodstock 99, please do. It was a just the demise of Western North America, usa culture right there. But anyways, this recording, this video recording of the band at Woodstock 99, is so good, like chills on my arms, like Goose Pimples, it was just fucking amazing. This, this song. You know, i was basically like okay, that's, that's my single. Should I listen to the rest of the album? I'm pretty happy right now didn't they do. 0:29:12 - Speaker 2What did they do? a 94 and a 99, or did they just do 99 just? 0:29:19 - Speaker 3I think the documentary it's a 99 one, where they set everything on fire and tore down all the stages and rated the food trucks and 99 all those things. And then, you know, with this song in particular, i was anxious to hear the band doing their own thing without, you know, managers or producers looming over them. And there were a couple different things I heard, which are even more so on certain songs. But the drums sounded a little different, a little bigger. Maybe the bass was a little bit more engaged with drumming. And there's there's been some times when the bass is kind of funky feeling, just like really in it there was some kind of I don't know, pete, you might know, but there was some echo, really echoey guitar effects. 0:30:12 - Speaker 2I got, i got that written which were pretty cool. 0:30:15 - Speaker 3Yeah, it was kind of the song just hit all the boxes had kind of this transcendental gonna take you on a journey. You know, i liked it so much I was like I don't even care what it's about, this is just a great listen yeah. 0:30:32 - Speaker 1Tim you talking about. You know the drums being bigger and you know the production just sounding. You know bigger and you know with with some of the guitar effects a lot of it has to do with. They went back to New Orleans but this time they went to that Daniel Inwas studio and the Kingsway studio, which is just a big old house and you know they would do stuff like bedsheets over the stairwells and you know, just like like home studio tricker, but on a bigger, bolder scale, because this house has so many nooks and crannies that you can get different sounds of the different spaces. And they took advantage of that, which is very different from the, the path they took on the record prior. 0:31:22 - Speaker 2Okay, daredevil so daredevil this, the skipping start that they did. Yeah, i feel like that was. So this was. What year was this? again? GD 94, 94. So I feel like I mean that was the height of like CDs like were where literally everybody had a CD player, wasn't like the early days. So I feel like maybe it was a. It was a joke to to make people think their CD was skipped, because if you ever bought a CD and you were unfortunate to buy a scratch CD that was brand new and it skipped, you were fucking pissed. Oh yeah, so that was cool, that was unique. This song certainly does sound way better in the car. I don't know if it's just specifically my car, because I have a pretty good sounds. 0:32:26 - Speaker 3It's the premium audio system. Is that what you guys kept saying? 0:32:30 - Speaker 6premium audio. 0:32:31 - Speaker 3I think we're at a point for an acronym for pass sound system everybody everybody listening. 0:32:37 - Speaker 1How about a? 0:32:38 - Speaker 3t-shirt yeah, if I get, if I get through this. 0:32:41 - Speaker 1Okay, these guys only a ride in Pete's car, the big that dooby or there should be a bingo card where the you know, every time you hear Pete say premium audio sound system, you tick the box, or and then there's of course the free square, and then, if you hear me say so, there's that geez, we're going to Malaga. 0:33:15 - Speaker 3There's this guy there with this premium audio system and he gives people rides. 0:33:22 - Speaker 2I'm just saying that because I'm due you're doing yeah, for sure $25 a song I'm good I think that'd be cool. I think a job this no, this song. Tim mentioned something about the, this bass. You were JD, you were talking about the, the studio and all the trickery. But yeah, this is the first one where I write down the like the guitar solos, for example. They seem way less defined on this record, and I don't mean it in a bad way, i mean it in a way that and then there was a really cool oscillation effect maybe a little more jam. 0:34:13 - Speaker 3I don't know if you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, i think the flavor is kind of gelled together more the oscillation effect. 0:34:24 - Speaker 2If you've ever heard the the song real emotional trash on the album, real emotional trash yeah, that Steve Malkomis song I know this came before that, but whatever he's using on that guitar solo is exactly the same effect they're using on their level because that oscillation of the guitar is just. It's so cool. I wish I was cool enough to know what it was to ever be able to use myself, because it's fucking rad. Anyway, i dug this song a lot. I really liked it. 0:34:59 - Speaker 1What do you think? what do you think they're damn? 0:35:03 - Speaker 3I did too. I think, yeah, i love the drummer just counting it off at the beginning. That that made it feel like maybe more home recording type scenario. This song, this song, like I was wishing I was in a bar, just like sitting at the bar pull-up and just I felt like I could be watching the band, you know. But it was like the barkeep and the kitchen people and I don't know. This, this one, this one kind of took me in a different direction than than many. After the one minute mark maybe this is kind of what you're talking about, pete like with the guitar and drums it gets kind of heavier or more layer layered. It felt like locomotive, like this train's just really going story wise, i mean, that's probably a podcast itself to talk about Annie Edison Taylor and going over the falls aspect of this one I love. The line in the real wonder of the world is that we don't jump to. Yes, you know, that's. That to me is like it delivers something inspiring. The song is like get out and get after it. Step out, you know, jump off that cliff, you have 50% chance of surviving if you survive. It's gonna be awesome and if you die, it'll be awesome. You know, this sounds really. It really is really cool. 0:36:40 - Speaker 1Where do we go next? we hit track three, and that's greasy jungle. Take it, tim greasy jungle. 0:36:48 - Speaker 3This one, the snares really snappy. I felt like this is where you're kind of hearing different recording, maybe aspects. When I say snappy snare, it's like tuned tighter. Maybe you know there's lots of film references here in this song which we've gotten before. There's congas, like. There's some hand drumming at some point in the song, i believe, which is. I was just like kind of tuned into the drums on this one. Obviously that's a background effect, but a new layer. There's a definitely a new crash cymbal, like there was some new drum gear right on this album. There's a new crash cymbal that's really bright. That's always kind of gets my attention. I didn't realize first few listens that it was like dirty streets, metropolis, correlation with greasy jungle. I didn't know what the heck it was about. You know I didn't for a song three. I always like hope that this is the one that's gonna get maybe somebody around the bases at bat. You know that they're gonna push, push it through and this one didn't do it as much for me. I was more kind of like okay, what's, what's next with. 0:38:21 - Speaker 1This one didn't grab me so much one of the cool little Gord Downey stories is the lyric that you're just talking about metropolis noir. It sounds so elegant and mysterious at the same time. But metropolis noir is a name he saw on a bag of coffee, it's. It's like French roasts, but in French it wasn't French roasts, it was a dark roast or something, or Italian roast. 0:39:00 - Speaker 3Dark roasts. Dark roasts, italian roasts. 0:39:02 - Speaker 1I forget which one it was, but it translated, because everything in Canada has to have a French label and a Canadian label. It translated to matropolis noir. So that's just one of those little things he stuck in his notebook. and then he's writing this greasy jungle, matropolis noir. And all of a sudden you've got this setting and then it takes you on that little story for funeral home sandwiches and coffee. Oh delicious Yeah. 0:39:33 - Speaker 3Yeah, i think that I also read that it maybe referenced a diner that he worked at that had the same name. Oh really, did you guys know that? Yeah, yeah, greasy jungle. Greasy jungle Sounds like a good diner though. 0:39:48 - Speaker 2Yeah, jd, you said French roasts, and it's funny because I always think I don't remember the name of the comedian, but in France they just call it roast, just like Tim and I's definition of Canadian bacon is actually just bacon for you right, JD, No I can't remember the comedian who did that bit, but, tim, i couldn't disagree with you more on this one. However, i will tell you. 0:40:25 - Speaker 1Tim, you're ignorant slut. 0:40:30 - Speaker 3Yes. 0:40:31 - Speaker 2I'm done. I sort of felt like that the first time I heard it And the more I. This was one where I kept digging Actually I didn't really have to do much work, but just the more I listened to it the more I was like okay, i get it. I get why this was a single. This is a banger on the phrasing on it. The vocal phrasing absolute A. Plus another great car song on the solos, super experimental, like again. It's cool, because it's not. Most of the guitar on this record is not like this. It's not a producer going. 0:41:11 - Speaker 1Okay, boys, let's lay down the solo. This is where we're going to put the solo here. Give me 32 bars, let's go. 0:41:18 - Speaker 232 bars, yeah, like it just it's so cool and it's not like that. And this song is the first although not as much, because there's another one we'll bring up and I'm sure you guys know which one it is But this is the first song where I really hear that the influence this band had on a Linus Morrisette. Oh wow, Oh yeah, There's another song on this record that we'll get to. That is clearly. It's clearly. She was sitting in her room listening to this record prior to recording Jagged Little Pill, like which I can't remember what year that came out. 0:42:04 - Speaker 1What year did that come out? It came out, i want to say the summer of 95 was when the was when she broke, when she exploded. 0:42:13 - Speaker 3Yeah, is she a fan? Is she a fan? 0:42:16 - Speaker 2She's a great musician and she's Canadian, so I would be hard pressed to think she's not. At least, i didn't mind. Oh yeah, she's Canadian. Yeah, you fuck her, stick together. So I saw her live in 2018 in LA and she just, i mean, fucking blew the roof off the place. Oh man, it was, it was, it was insane. 0:42:40 - Speaker 1Anyway, my wife had tickets to the 25th anniversary tour of Jagged Little Pill and it got canceled due to COVID. So, yeah, total drag. Yeah, yeah, okay, yeah, i'm, i'm on your side there, pete. As far as Greasy Jungle goes, next one is a cool thing that I don't know if this is something that pre-existed. You know, i don't know if somebody had taken a photograph and of a dog, you know, with its teeth bared, and wondered aloud if it had been yawning or snarling. Because, like, since that time, i've seen so many photos that I say that line in my head. You know, there's so many photos that they're captured and we feel something right away, but then you have to sort of open your mind and go well, wait a minute, maybe that feeling that I'm feeling isn't the right feeling. You know, it was just the way the photo was captured. It could have been yawning or snarling, and that sort of kicks us off. 0:44:08 - Speaker 5The cops go into the crowd under a glaring platter of light and the music's just so loud and the tourists take their t-shirts off and a bus load of kids and gifts to the finger Afternoon, when the sidewalk's hot and the shadows too chilly to linger. 0:44:50 - Speaker 6Both we're in the escuchians and at the bar, and people are helming Downtown. Never, ever been. 0:45:06 - Speaker 5Now just wait for me, I'm gonna resurface. 0:45:17 - Speaker 6I take a look at this photo girl. I don't know how clearly it's taken away. 0:45:28 - Speaker 5I'm gonna get out of here. I never saw it. The picture is never clear. 0:45:41 - Speaker 6I'm gonna make a decision. I mean an incarceration, i mean so much. One night in El Paso, the cops fall into the crowd Under a throbbing bladder of light And the music is just so loud And the tourists turn their TVs off. The box is apart with the sound of a linger Night time when the shadows come And you tilt to the tips of your fingers. But that's the way it goes in our region. I'm so strong, i'm making a chance Downtown, never ever been. Now just wait for you to resurface. Take a look at this photograph. How clearly it's taken away. He could have been the artist, not an artist. This picture is never clear. I'm so good at this photo, girl. How clearly it's taken away. I'm gonna get out of here. 0:47:48 - Speaker 5I'm in a slumber. The story is never clear. Walks right into a Mardi Gras parade. We're touring the south at the bottom of the beard. 0:48:28 - Speaker 2Yonnie and Snarling I first listened to. This record was my favorite song And that was, with my, everything I love about Grace too, it starts out very mad season. I don't know if you know that band. 0:48:52 - Speaker 1Yeah, that was the supergroup right. 0:48:54 - Speaker 2Yeah, that was the supergroup of Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains And that record. When did that record come out? Did it come out in 1993? Maybe, so they were active in 1994 to 1996, So maybe it's the same time, I don't know. Anyway, it starts out like the first and it builds. I don't know. I just loved it. I could say so much about the instrumentation, But lyrically, I don't know if you've got a line on exactly what it's about JD, But there's some historical references in there And talking about El Paso, he brings up the Mexican US border there. I'm pretty sure that runs through the 100th Meridian, Oh wow now, i know that. I could be wrong, but it just kind of feels like it's going, like Cordoni's really going in. He's a big fan of these historical references. I don't know, i dug it. What's saying you, tim? 0:50:11 - Speaker 3I dug it. I think when I first heard it started up I was thinking Okay, here's the spooky, sinister Pipps song of the album Which we often get. You know, if any song that I hear I hear a reference about El Paso or the Rio Grande, it's usually something heavy. It's not about going tubing and fishing and having fun. So yeah, there's a line in there about the cops go into the crowd Throbbing bladder of light. You know, i'd love that phrase, throbbing bladder of light. The music is so loud nighttime when the shadows cough Like this. Lyrically, the song's loaded, it's just it's really really big. I just, you know, somebody beat up and throw it in the river. This is an early song there's a moody guitar ending, i think throughout the song. The bass to me I'm always kind of honing in. It's funny because Pete's on guitar and I'm on bass and drums, which is cool, but the bass is a little punchier, like it's tuned up or I don't know. This one had definitely some home, you know, if they recorded it in the house. I'm just gonna call it home production because it's basically what it was, even if it was like Super Pro Studio, like there's some little things in there that I heard for sure. It's an interesting song. It's pretty cool It was. It's kind of an early song to me. I stuck with it a few times. 0:51:58 - Speaker 1Cool. What's next? It's number five. We're at five. Fire in the hole. 0:52:07 - Speaker 3Yeah, let's fire. Fire in the hole is fucking cool. And I say that because I heard kind of this 90s grungy punk influence with this one, even though it's not like super fast or anything. But then when I started reading into it, you know, because I figured it had something to do with fascism and Nazis And I don't know. There's something you know angry here. There's some different ties to Sonic Youth's Youth, sonic Youth's Youth Against Fascism song. It's very I don't want to say very similar, but there's definitely some things shared. You know, that was a time for me. It was a time of really getting into, like crunchy guitars, a little bit more experimentation, faster rhythms. You know this song, for a hip song maybe, is like a little bit tougher. It's a little bit tougher. And I also just thought you know by its own name and chorus that this one is probably ruckus live. It's probably just fun and, you know, fist in the air. 0:53:30 - Speaker 2Yeah, i agree, i agree, this is a banger for sure. The guitar work on it I definitely. I mean it's weird, i don't know because I'm not the biggest Guns N' Roses fan, but you know, slash's Les Paul guitar tone is pretty distinct, you know, when you hear it, and the guitar tone on this song that he's playing some lines sounds, i mean, identical. It doesn't sound like Guns N' Roses, of course the song doesn't, but that guitar tone just was so reminiscent of that And it kind of made me think, okay, so they're like trying to, they're trying to shed some older skin from the previous records, but you know, it's sort of like you can take the. You know, take the what out of the what, but you can't take the what out of the what. They still got it in their roots. You know what I mean. 0:54:35 - Speaker 1Yeah. 0:54:38 - Speaker 2So that's definitely there. And then, yeah, this is one like the obviously Grace too. I mean that's sort of like the flagship of this record. But this is another song where you're like, okay, gord's found his voice. He's really, you know, If the band is his recliner, like whenever he gets up, you can see his ass imprint. It is always there. He's found his voice. The chair is sunk. It's sunk in. Does that make sense What I'm trying to say? Yeah, he's. Yeah, he's been in that chair so long now for a number of records that it's just comforts Like he's found it. 0:55:29 - Speaker 1He knows where he's at. He's in the groove. He's in the groove Like he's absolutely. And to me, guys, isn't this the heaviest that we've ever heard them. Or is there something on Foley that might be? No, i think you're right, i do. 0:55:46 - Speaker 3I think it's up there. I think it's up there. 0:55:48 - Speaker 1Yeah, because you were saying fast and I was thinking to my head, I was like yeah, it is fast. It's fast and heavy, Like this is a great song alive. 0:55:54 - Speaker 2This is like Foo Fighters, Fast Like I was like whoa. 0:55:59 - Speaker 1Yeah, because it's still, it's still. 0:56:05 - Speaker 3It's interesting. You went to guns and roses. I don't know why I didn't go there Like I. Just I didn't hear that reference, but I want to go back. 0:56:14 - Speaker 2Just the guitar, just the guitar time. 0:56:17 - Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:56:19 - Speaker 2For me oftentimes that doesn't mean something positive, Just yeah you know, outside of them anybody else I hear sounding like remotely like guns and roses. You just kind of go, eh you know. But I think it was just weird that Tom was there because coming up the hip I feel were such a that was. That was what most bands were sounding like back then. 0:56:49 - Speaker 3I don't know. Yeah, maybe 50 mission cap or something. Oh yeah, yeah, this one, you know. 0:56:56 - Speaker 1Yeah, you might be right, You might be and you might be so hard done by. 0:57:00 - Speaker 2So hard done by. To be honest with you, this is probably my least favorite of the of the record. Hey, we're in the break. Yeah, i just didn't. Yeah, i thought it was, i thought it was a cool chorus, but I just I kept thinking about, like, what would I say about the song? And it's just, you know, maybe in the 10 year reunion by then I'll have something. but this song, sorry, i wish I had I had more for it, but I really just don't. 0:57:42 - Speaker 3I'm with you a bit. I heard Allison Chains right away And I don't think it's like it's not like 100% Allison Chains. That's who I thought of And I'm starting to hear, you know, and occasional references to bands that we're doing well during this time And I'm not a big Allison Chains fan by any means, but it's. you know, there's still some lyric nuggets in here I love. you'll have to wait a minute. It's an en somatic Like. that to me is kind of a phrase of if you want, you know, beauty in life, it's not going to come to you right away. You got to, you got to deal. The ending is kind of rough. You know the yeah, i'm with you, pete. The ending is kind of rough. The snare is too snappy. The snare is like so snappy that it's like that's how you tune a snare for fucking punk rock songs with a high beat per minute. You know it just didn't. it just didn't. 0:58:45 - Speaker 1It's funny that you say that, because the original, like the demo version of this song is totally up tempo. Well so it's. It's a completely different song Me I. I think this is, i think it's fine, i think it's harkens back to like, like it could be on up to here, it could be on road apples. To me it's got that sleazy, not quite stone Z vibe. So I was really surprised to hear you say Alison chains, because I'm I'm going more of like the roots. You know, okay, that's, that's my vibe of John, but but that's, you know, this one, that's just how it was for sure. 0:59:30 - Speaker 3More filler had a rough ending and I was kind of glad it was like, okay, what's next? You want to? you want to add something, pete. 0:59:37 - Speaker 2Oh, all I was going to say was You know, that'd be cool if it was. I mean, maybe it is cool live. And I just just to comment that I always hate when you hear a band play a live version of a song and it's just fucking killer And that's the first way you hear it. And then you hear the studio version and it just absolutely blows. 0:59:59 - Speaker 3So yeah, i'm, i'm with you, I'm with you. Maybe this is that? 1:00:03 - Speaker 2But to answer your question, JD, what's next is not cool. I've actually heard JD sing this song. 1:00:12 - Speaker 1Oh, that's right, I did it. I did it for a, i did it for a hip podcast, like I do a pod list, just like I do for medium alchemists And I sang it. Is that that was right? Yeah, yeah. 1:00:27 - Speaker 3I dug it, I thought it. I thought it was what's, what's that pod JD had that he took off. It was like JD sings in the shower, Was it that one? 1:00:36 - Speaker 2That's what I wanted. Jd sings in the shower. There was a. There was a. There was a video version of the podcast too, but that was yeah that was that, the lovely fans. No, i remember hearing this and the first time you sent it to me I think I was already living in Malaga. But great tune, i, you know this, and JD, you, you, you explained to me what this song was about and I've since forgotten because my brain doesn't work anymore at my age, but I did get. I think the reason why we started talking about it in the first place was because we I mentioned to you the another great Canadian singer, gordon Lightfoot's Right, ricky Deven, if it's Gerald. And so you, you brought this song up and that's kind of how it came into my, my atmosphere, my airspace if you will. 1:01:44 - Speaker 1Well, those are forever linked for me, because the first time I saw this song played live Gordon, he introduced it live as a Canadian musician, would be complete without a song about a nautical disaster. 1:02:04 - Speaker 5This song is called nautical disaster. These are the Dh과a stations for brokers. 1:02:36 - Speaker 6NotOf cybersecurity. This is Darryl, i don't wanna sweat. Ha. What's wrong? What's going on? Can't tell yourself I'm a foreign team. He said hang on, just stop, shut your big mouth and gotta do what you feel is real. He got no peace and false gods Got no Sunni, my baby. She won't know me when I'm thinking about music. I'm a foreign team. Keep it going, man. 1:04:11 - Speaker 7Let's keep the wagon wheel going. Alright, i had this dream where I relished the fray And the screaming filled my head all day. I felt as though I'd been spinned here, Settled in into the pocket. 1:04:44 - Speaker 6In a lighthouse on some rocky socket Of the coast of France, dear One afternoon. Four thousand men died in the water Here And five hundred more repression, matthew, is parasite's life In your blood. Now I'm in a lifeboat Designed for ten. Ten on me. Anything that's systematic Would get you hated. It's not a deal, nor a test, Nor a love of something stated. The selection was quick, the crew was in order And those left in the water Got kicked off the padlock And we headed home. 1:06:24 - Speaker 7And in the dream and when the phone rings, we're doing alright. 1:06:30 - Speaker 6I set it out there Those days and nights, but only a fool would complain. Anyway, susan, if you'd like A conversation To say myself, in my memory Is those fingertips Scratching on my heart, and I'm in a lifeboat Designed for ten. Ten on me. 1:07:41 - Speaker 7Anything that's systematic Would get you hated. It's not a deal, nor a test, nor a love of something stated, no matter how hard it is. You see how hard it is, it's real hard. 1:08:27 - Speaker 5There's a lifeboat Hanging on a wire Sucking up to someone, just a stoke of fire. 1:08:35 - Speaker 7Picking up the highlights of the scenery, saw some little clouds. 1:08:50 - Speaker 5They looked a little like me. I had my hands in the river, my feet back up from banks, looked up to the Lord above, said he'd call me thanks. Some times I feel so good I've got to scream. Said 40 baby, i know exactly what you mean, he said. He said I swear to God. He said Now, now. 1:09:27 - Speaker 6Now, okay, my memory Was my dear watch's river that I nailed. If near or leave a sink in there, then I don't wanna swear Swag, swag, swag, swag. 1:10:42 - Speaker 1Swag, swag, and then they launch into New Orleans' sinking. Oh my gosh, and you're sorta like what? What's going on? And then, in the middle of New Orleans' sinking, is this brand new song, fully fleshed out, not a? 1:11:00 - Speaker 3good one. You know, i read about this And it's fucking holy crap. 1:11:07 - Speaker 1It is a tornado Like it is, so destructive. 1:11:14 - Speaker 3And you know, there's not many bands Who perform live that do Extremely intentional things like that For the audience. There's not many bands that do that Doing something like that, mixing in a new song in the middle of a song People know And then did they circle back? 1:11:31 - Speaker 1Yeah, They finished, then they finished all of these things. 1:11:34 - Speaker 3That's just insane to me. I just love, i just love, love, love that. I just love that. If any, if any songwriters are out there, do that for me. When I come here you live, mix me in a new one. It's a treat, right? Yeah, because it's the opposite of going to a show And hearing a band play Like their album. You know, i've walked out of shows Because it's just boring as fuck. You know, i'll say this about In 18. I believe it was built to spill. Oh my gosh, it was like I could have just put on One of their records and sat at home. So, yeah, to be able to split in another song And keep going and mix it up And do all these things that are so creative And have the confidence to do that, and phew. 1:12:30 - Speaker 2The only thing I'll say in defensive built to spill Is there's always. 1:12:34 - Speaker 3Oh, everybody defends. Built to spill. 1:12:36 - Speaker 2No, no, i'm only saying it live I've never seen them live. Only because they always have a new line up. It's only a singer They do. They do. So if I'm a guy sitting in And part of the band this time around, the only thing I know is the record, because that's probably how they play together, which that's uh. Yeah, my buddy's seen them live And he kind of had the same feeling as you did. 1:13:01 - Speaker 1Same feeling as you did, i'm just starting to get into built. 1:13:04 - Speaker 3Yeah, sorry, bds fans. There you have it. There's another fan that wants to punch me in the gut. Not a cool disaster, i think it's fucking cool. Like my sentiment right away was like Here's the epic storytelling TH song. Here The drums it was like beating. Like we're charging into war Lifeboat designed for ten and ten. Only You know. There's just all these Great metaphors in there for like I don't know. 1:13:34 - Speaker 1Oh, i love the line about getting The remaining people in the water Getting kicked off at Antler. Oh man, i don't know why. Yeah, and this song, there's no structure, there's no verse, there's no chorus, it's just literally Like you said, tim, it's like a story. 1:13:51 - Speaker 3Yeah yeah, i don't know who the Susan reference is. I didn't look too much into that part, like, towards the end there's something about Susan Which I don't know why. With this band, whenever they mention a woman I'm always like. 1:14:03 - Speaker 1She's Evelyn's sister. 1:14:04 - Speaker 3Because it's often something grim. But you know this song there's. There's lots of data in there. This could be a rabbit hole song. It wasn't so much for me, just because I thought it was awesome. 1:14:19 - Speaker 1You're right, it is awesome. It's fucking awesome. Maybe I'm out and we're actually more song for the band. Where do we go next? Um Thugs? 1:14:28 - Speaker 2This is gonna sound really strange, but first of all, i love the chorus on this song. That's fantastic. I really dug this song a lot. It's ironic that it's called thugs and the baseline is a slowed-down version of Grandmaster flashes a message yes or yes? 1:14:54 - Speaker 3Whoa, I didn't go that deep, but I knew it was something like I. I felt there was something go out on in this song And I didn't know what I was you know, i didn't know what it was, but Uh, you keep going it's a deep, deep. 1:15:09 - Speaker 2There's clearly a deep admiration for Grandmaster flash Going on here and The. this the we reference to JD. You mentioned that this is the song where, or this is the record where, you realized they're actually a wee band out of your band. 1:15:30 - Speaker 1Um, yeah, it sort of. It sort of happened at the same time to me as well, no, but you know, there's the reference about All roll or rolling. I'll do the details, you do the roll and I'll do the details. I'm sorry about that. That's all right. 1:15:48 - Speaker 2Yeah, that's, that's kind of where. That's kind of Where I thought on that, the Again the chorus awesome, uh, there's. He keeps doing this high, are you know? it doesn't a couple times and on the record but he does like a high-pitched whoo And this song, that's really cool. And The spacey reverb Guitar is just like. I couldn't think of the song that it reminded me of or the artist, but it's, there's so much reverb on this on that guitar, it's like It's insane. 1:16:26 - Speaker 1Love it, love love, love this one. Yes, it's, yeah, you can swim in it Well said. Yeah, yeah. Where are you on thugs? 1:16:34 - Speaker 3You know I I Felt it was a little bit filler. You know I I didn't get a whole lot from this one I when I Started looking into kind of the movie references or what they get up trying to figure out When I was trying to figure out. You know any details About this song that could make me get into it more? I read and I've read this before, the quote from gourd, that if that's what you think it's about, then that's what it's about Sure, which made me think for this song. Okay, if it's. You know if I think gourd would tell me hey man, if you, if you don't dig this song, then maybe you should try Inevitability of death. You know, if you want to get heavier, then go here. If you don't, you don't get heavy with thugs and let's give you a song about struggling with cancer, which is, i think, inevitability of death. You know, there's what I enjoyed about this song is they mix it up a little bit. You know there's a Chorus singing without drums. You know they're starting to do little creative things on this album That I think help make it stand out and keep my interests more. That's kind of what I, yeah, that's kind of what I've noticed. But then you know, i think everybody probably knows anybody, or sorry, anyone knows someone is diet of cancer and maybe that's what this is about about and living life. You know, trying to Do everything to your fullest. I'm not sure about this. The song was, it was a good jam, it was it was. 1:18:17 - Speaker 1You know what you're not. You're not Far off the track. I don't think, though, when, when you say that about cancer but that would be just so terribly ironic you know Writing a song about that and then succumbing to that illness. You know all those. 1:18:38 - Speaker 3Yeah, exactly. 1:18:40 - Speaker 1Because it came on suddenly. It wasn't something he battled with for very long. It came on suddenly and he was gone, wow, other than a other than a cross-canada tour. But well, you just think, puffy lips, glistening skin, yeah, everything comes rushing in. That could be like reference to, like the chemotherapy you know, like rushing into your body. You know We don't go to hell, just yeah. I love the. I also just love the word play. I thought you'd be the death of inevitability to death just a little bit. I thought you'd be the inevitability of death to death just a little bit like. I love how it's inverted Mm-hmm, very cool, very cool. 1:19:21 - Speaker 2And he makes it work it's crazy that you say like puffy lips and glistening skin. I'm thinking of a. I'm thinking of like Scarlett Johansson and in a bikini like that's who. I'm like. That's right where I went when I heard that. That's so. I'm not even joking. 1:19:43 - Speaker 1That's like what I thought say, could have been yonder somebody somebody just came from LA, i think. 1:19:51 - Speaker 2It's been any time with Scarlett, though The I dig this song It's. It's not one of my favorites, but this was the song that Clearly did the one I mentioned earlier that that Alanis drew a lot of The word play and the way he phrases it is It's. It's exactly what she does in the song. You ought to know like it's. It's 100%. You can't Can't deny it. I'm sure if you had a gun to read she'd say yes, of course It's worth it. She's got the inspiration on. I. 1:20:33 - Speaker 1Don't think it would go that far, just just for the record. No, yeah, if you were interviewing her you would probably, i probably, i probably just ask her. 1:20:39 - Speaker 2Yeah, she seems like a nice person. 1:20:43 - Speaker 3Let's, let's, let's have her guest on the next one. 1:20:45 - Speaker 1He's gonna you have. You have that up, jady Yeah. 1:20:47 - Speaker 3Yeah. 1:20:48 - Speaker 1Yeah, I like the bass that. 1:20:49 - Speaker 2I think the chords are a little bit more. I think the chords are a little bit monotonous. The line if you go to hell, i'll still remember you, that's just. That's a really fucking cool line. But The bass starts to shine at the end, which is cool because because the chords are so I guess I've been honest the bass really isn't doing much, but then it does something that that only Tim Hates is more than I do. It's just faith. 1:21:27 - Speaker 3You know, i will say some of the hip, some of the hips, fadeouts are better than others. Okay, they've had they've had some oh dare I tragic fadeouts oh. I use that because I hate fade out so much. 1:21:47 - Speaker 2Jady, can you, can you You edit this in? can you, can you do that? 1:21:55 - Speaker 3That's funny. You mentioned that cuz a couple weeks ago, jd. I said to JD you know, sometimes I just want to add in a sound effect, like You know, and he's like you do not do that on my podcast, i hate sound effects, because I'm even thinking. 1:22:14 - Speaker 1You know, when you were talking earlier, you were talking about The bass being slowed down from Grandmaster Flash, like, oh, i could intercut. I could intercut like the Grandmaster Flash song so people could hear it. 1:22:27 - Speaker 2But then it's like It's so noticeable man, i mean it's it's so noticeable. It's exact same bass line, but anyway. 1:22:37 - Speaker 1Next song, though. So then we slow it down with scared. 1:22:41 - Speaker 3This that's so scared for me is it's like a. I instantly went to. This song would be an amazing concert concert closer. You know it's. It comes on, you know the night's finishing, it might be the what else? songs. You close your eyes at some point and just listen and get in deep. You know it's, there's, it's layered and story from I don't know Russia and the Germans and Stalin and Trying to make culture and art disappeared and like housekeepers and all these different things. It's like it's. It's. It's a sad kind of beautiful song that It's a little bit of a usual makeup for them with this kind of section of the album, but I thought it was, you know, on that note, kind of dark and lovely overall. 1:23:37 - Speaker 1What do you think, sir? 1:23:39 - Speaker 2I wasn't. I thought this was kind of like just a token. If you will token slow tune like It didn't do it for me, like When it comes to like softer hip songs, like it didn't give me the same Warm, fuzzy feeling is like fiddler's green did. 1:24:02 - Speaker 1Sure, okay, yeah, i mean, fiddler's green is a knockout pie. It is, but my god scared. I love this song really good. 1:24:10 - Speaker 2Maybe it's just positioning on the record, i don't know. I've got a Spend some more time with it and in this was actually one song. There's a couple of tunes. I didn't Get to hear the car, yeah, towards the end, because my car rides weren't as long and they started the record. I would put the first song on when I got in the car, so if I wasn't driving for a long time, obviously the song story the other record didn't didn't didn't make it in the in the car, but there was something really weird on this song. There was a Spacey sort of keyboard sound that kept going off. You know I'm talking about. 1:24:54 - Speaker 3I know, now I don't really yeah, the only thing that certainly stood out to me was the use of acoustic guitars. There's, you know that's. That was a little unusual. I don't remember keyboards. 1:25:05 - Speaker 2There's some sort of keyboard effect going on in there. That is Like the only thing I can equate it to is like you know the. It's like an oscillated version of. You know the sound of the, the metal hitting the, the track on the song. It's a sound of the men working on the chain game. Yeah, it's like it. It's like an echoey, delayed, oscillated, real subtle Vert Sample of that or something, something similar to that, and it's done with the keyboards and said it's on the song 100%. 1:25:46 - Speaker 1Huh, i've got to listen with these headphones. 1:25:49 - Speaker 2But yeah it's. It was a cool song. I dug it and I kind of wish I had more of a feeling the way you guys do about it. But you know it's okay there just hope for you. 1:25:59 - Speaker 1There's hope for you, peter. From there we go to an inch an hour, and this song always impressed me, because the math works out an In an hour today the same way, an inch an hour to feed a day, to moan tonight in this most professional way. 1:26:57 - Speaker 5There's this fucking band. You gotta see they used to care about living shit. I see no profit in talk. No food in town, no rock and roll, no bestiality. 1:27:10 - Speaker 6Makes me feel the same way. An inch an hour to feed a day, to moan tonight with their little mouth to say But our health is best with the people in the space. No stuff of town, no feed you through, no salt on the tev. It works through Making lots and moogs. 1:27:49 - Speaker 5Tonight I'm gonna win and make this gift heart. I want you to see your breath in the spring side. Heart, coffee colors, ice and feeling. First part Sound. The rushing water in the dark Makes me feel the same way. 1:28:06 - Speaker 6An inch an hour to feed a day, to moan tonight with their little mouth to say But our health is best with the people in the space. I mean our health is best with the people in the space. You see, i don't know me. I don't know me at all, i don't know myself. 1:28:47 - Speaker 1I don't know myself. I don't know myself. What did you think of this? 1:29:06 - Speaker 2one. I love the. I don't know if I paid attention to it in the other records, or I'm just hearing this now, or this is the first time they're really doing it, but I feel like the guitar is falling the vocal line, or the vocal line is falling the guitar a little bit more, which is cool, like the melody of what Gord's singing. I thought it was a fucking banger. Again, this is another one where he's like yelping. I can only say yelping because he's not screaming but he's saying oh, oh, like really multiple times during the song. Anyway, i love it. I thought this song would probably be a really good opener. I don't know if they ever opened with it, but Definitely thought it would be a good opener. 1:30:07 - Speaker 3I think this one I was anticipating, without even knowing it, after listening to Scared. Scared was like this epic kind of novel, three-part novel to get through And when an inch and hour came on in the car, within seconds was turning it way up Like. This is one that I kind of needed. With the placement in the album, it truly so. I read that it's potentially, or possibly, if it's about a fan who wrote a fan letter to the band. Supposedly this guy claims to come home at the end of his night shift every day. He would go buy some beer and sit on the stoop of his apartment And just crank tragically hip and drink beers. And he was thumbing through one of their albums and saw an address to write letters into

Noi Mahoney - Borderlands Writer - FreightWaves - San Antonio, TX Topic: Mexican-US trade still resilient despite economic downturn. Uber Freight says that things are doing well at the border - what have they said about prospects in cross border trade? Have they seen a downturn because of the economic climate or even an upturn with the nearshoring activity that has been going on recently? What are some of the other factors that are going to affect US-Mexico trade this year? OTHER BORDERLANDS QUESTIONS San Diego-based XB Fulfillment recently received $100 million in private equity funding, which it will use to accelerate expansion of its logistics warehousing, according to a news release. New Orleans-based Louisiana Pepper Exchange, a global chile pepper company, recently announced plans for a processing and distribution facility in Santa Teresa, New Mexico.  A collision between a freight truck and passenger van in northern Mexico left 26 people dead, according to Reuters.  The accident occurred May 14 on a highway near Ciudad Victoria, which is located in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas along the U.S.-Mexico border. Topic: Layoffs at DHL and GXO DHL Supply Chain and GXO Logistics are laying off workers in Texas as a result of both companies losing customers.

This week we chat to Rudy Ruiz, about his new novel, 'The Resurrection of Fulgencio Ramirez'. Rudy has been a finalist for the International Latino Book Awards, and has written extensively about the Mexican/ US border. The new book weaves that social activism into a novel, telling the story of a man seeking redemption and the American Dream in the face of a mystical family curse. We talk about where the idea came from, how Mexican songs helped shaped the story, and why culture and heritage plays such a big role in his writing.You can support the show at patreon.com/writersroutine@writerspodwritersroutine.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this episode, I speak to the philosopher, Martin Bunzl, about his new book, Thinking While Walking, Reflections on the Pacific Crest Trail. As Martin traverses the 2650 mile trail from the Mexican-US border to the US-Canada border, questions emerge around our own relationship with what we call the natural world. If humanity has curated the landscape for thousands of years, both for-profit and pleasure, what are the impasses and delusions that we are to face in solving the huge ecological and climate problems that currently block our road to the future? These ideas have been discussed before in terms of man versus nature but Martin gives concrete examples of where our romantic view of nature has already shaped the world around us. Thinking While Walking is a fascinating book that considers many of the entrenched positions that many of us hold when we think or speak about action on climate change.

This past summer, when the news from the Mexican-US border was reaching the height of its intolerability, one of the booksellers at A Room of One's Own came to co-owner Gretchen Treu with an idea: a tip jar. More specifically: a tip jar to raise money for RAICES. But what started as a tip jar turned into a NATIONAL fundraising effort...almost overnight.

Gospel Justice – Gracie Murphree pt 1 (https://kcrpodcast.com/?attachment_id=98779) We have seen the news reports of the border crisis at the Mexican – US border. Unless you have had your head under a rock or buried in the sand, you have seen the waves of migrants trying to cross the border into the United States. You have heard the political debates raging between those who believe we need to control our borders to those who want no borders. But, caught in the middle of that debate, are individuals who are seeking a better life. Some are fleeing abuses in their home countries. Some are escaping persecution for their Faith. And, unfortunately, some are coming here for nefarious reasons as well. My guest today has made it her life mission to help the women and children fleeing Honduras. Gracie Murphree has lived in Honduras since 2005 and understands both sides of the immigration issue. She is an outspoken fighter for Gospel Justice and also runs a Christian refuge in Honduras, called Heart of Christ-Corazon de Christo. This ministry isfor women and children who are victims of domestic violence and human trafficking. She knows the love of Christ is the only way to reach a country where lawlessness reigns supreme. She credits God for the protection He provides as she has survived not one, not two but FIVE assassination attempts on her life! In 2008 Gracie was decorated by the president of Honduras and the minister of the National Institute of Women for her work in prevention of violence for reasons of gender. Prior to her working in Honduras Gracie was a journalist and worked as a scriptwriter for CTN (Christian Television Network) WBHR CH 33 Pensacola/Mobile writing eighty-three weekly television shows and two documentaries. Tell us about the “Gospel-Justice” program you have in Honduras? I have to touch base for a minute on the assassination attempts on your life. Were they hit jobs put out by those who benefit from sex trafficking and such? Has your husband also been targeted on some of these attacks? END PT 1 How do you protect yourself from something like that?  Don’t get into specifics, for obvious reasons, just generalities. You are also an approved country expert for US Immigration court cases, correct?  What does that entail when you are called into testify? I know the media reports many of the women and children – and men – are coming from nations like Honduras, El Salvador, Venezuela, etc. I believe the US has instituted a policy of “first country” asylum, meaning if someone is fleeing Honduras, they should seek asylum in Guatemala or even Mexico rather than coming thousands of miles and trying to enter the United States. Do you believe that is a valid response to the crisis we see at the border? How does your ministry work affect the border crisis here in the United States? (https://kcrpodcast.com/?attachment_id=98780) Now, you are here in the United States right now, promoting book you have written called, “Journey to Justice: Finding God and Destiny in Darkness.”  Tell us a little about your book. Is it available on Amazon and in book stores? Gracie, it has been an absolute honor to talk with you today. If someone wanted to reach out to you, ask a question, offer support or something like that, how can they get in touch with you? Folks, it is not everyday you get a chance to hear someone from the front lines of Christian ministry. Facing down death on a daily basis. Someone who is so called and anointed by God in accomplishing the Christian mission of ministering to those who are abused, neglected and forgotten, like Gracie Murphree has been doing. I want to ask you – to encourage you – to buy at least one copy of Gracie’s book, “Journey to Justice: Finding God and Destiny in Darkness.” As a matter of fact, since Christmas is coming soon, buy TWO copies and give one away as a present. I can guarantee you, there is somebody out there that this...

Help me welcome to the program, Gracie Murphree!  Gracie, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit with us today! Now, before I get into some questions for you, let me start with this. Other than that short bio I just read, tell us in your own words, “Who is Gracie Murphree?” Now, your background. You know what it is like to be a victim. You were drugged and raped when you were only 21 years old. How has that experienced shaped what you are doing today? Your own church basically ostracized you because you were raped and became pregnant as a result of the rape? How did you get involved with the situation down in Honduras? Your ministry also teaches Honduran authorities and ministries how to rescue, care for and help to restore victims of violence – in one of the most dangerous nations on earth! What are some of the ways in which you accomplish this? Tell us about the “Gospel-Justice” program you have in Honduras? I have to touch base for a minute on the assassination attempts on your life. Were they hit jobs put out by those who benefit from sex trafficking and such? Has your husband also been targeted on some of these attacks?

In popular culture, media and political discourse coming from the White House Mexico has come to represent the embodiment of US racial, cultural and economic anxieties. Trump has given a new face and voice to this historic ignorance by implicitly singling out its southern neighbours as the cause and source of the nations ills. What is often left out of political conversations on the increasing instability and violence of Mexico is the role of the US in perpetuating the war on drugs through its world leading consumption of illicit substances and its promotion of the devastating free trade deal know as NAFTA. This has culminated in a stagnant Mexican economy, the displacement of 2 million Mexican agricultural workers, and waves of migrants trying to find low wage work north of the border. We spoke to Natalia Pujalte, formally of the Mexican foreign ministry and the European Council about Mexican-US relations. We discussed the nexus between the war on drugs, violence and immigration and the impact this on-going conflict has had on internal politics and human rights of Mexico.
