Transcript

00:01:16.000 That was Burnt by the Sun.
00:01:18.000 I forget where they're from.
00:01:20.000 Relatively new hardcore kind of metal crossover, heavy shit dudes.
00:01:27.000 A lot of occult stuff, Alex Jones.
00:01:29.000 Not occult stuff.
00:01:29.000 Sorry.
00:01:30.000 Illuminati stuff.
00:01:33.000 The producer who helped me put together all these English Nooks songs introduced me to them.
00:01:37.000 A little too much for my taste.
00:01:39.000 I'm getting older.
00:01:41.000 When you hear music like that at my age, you go, it must be fun to be that good at drums.
00:01:46.000 You don't really go, you're very clinical about it all.
00:01:49.000 That's why I lost my voice.
00:01:51.000 We recorded eight songs, and then we have a live song from 1987.
00:01:57.000 We used to cover Peebies Players.
00:01:59.000 So I'll be providing that on the show for free.
00:02:01.000 I tried to contact the old guys in the band and tell them I was doing this.
00:02:06.000 By the way, what this is, is we took a bunch of live cassettes, learned the songs, and then re-recorded them nice.
00:02:14.000 Ryan's on it.
00:02:16.000 I am.
00:02:17.000 The late 80s were a weird time for hardcore because there was DRI and anthrax and there's a lot of thrash.
00:02:24.000 So I was heavily influenced by crass, but the band was heavily influenced by this crossover stuff.
00:02:29.000 So there's solos in every song.
00:02:32.000 And it was sort of skate rock.
00:02:34.000 If you look up, I've talked about them a lot, but they were sort of the kings of our scene.
00:02:38.000 Grave Concern.
00:02:39.000 And the album is Approach with Caution.
00:02:42.000 It's on YouTube.
00:02:43.000 I don't know.
00:02:44.000 When I hear it, it sounds like I'm listening to Mozart.
00:02:47.000 Like, it's the greatest band of all time.
00:02:49.000 But that's obviously tightly wrapped up in my teenage experience.
00:02:53.000 It might sound like shit to you.
00:02:57.000 So all our songs have these kind of guitar solos in them, which sounds weird to most people, hardcore fans.
00:03:04.000 This was the norm.
00:03:05.000 Every song had at least two solos.
00:03:07.000 You're a jumpin'to the TV screen.
00:03:12.000 It's the first one, that's the way it's always.
00:03:14.000 That's the way it's always.
00:03:17.000 I don't think they had an album.
00:03:18.000 think they only had a cassette.
00:03:27.000 That's Giannis in the middle there.
00:03:31.000 He's very tall and from Poland.
00:03:34.000 I mean, I always used to say to him, I wouldn't touch you with a 10-foot pole.
00:03:36.000 Oh, you are a 10-foot pole.
00:03:40.000 You know what's funny about him, Giannis or whatever his name was?
00:03:43.000 Yona?
00:03:44.000 I forget his name.
00:03:45.000 Some weird Polac name.
00:03:46.000 Part of his assimilation into Canada to get his citizenship, he had to learn, might have been the whiskey, might have been the gin, could have been a 2-4-6 pack.
00:03:58.000 I don't know, but look at the state I'm in.
00:04:01.000 My head is like a football.
00:04:02.000 Well, I think I'm going to die.
00:04:05.000 And that's me, oh, me, oh, my, wasn't that a party?
00:04:08.000 I'm singing it with a slightly southern accent, but it's a Canadian song.
00:04:12.000 And I thought, that's fucking, first we thought it was retarded when we were 18 and we heard that.
00:04:16.000 But now that I'm 53, I'm like, yeah.
00:04:19.000 You should learn, wasn't that a party?
00:04:21.000 Imagine some packy derms like, wasn't that the party?
00:04:24.000 Oh, could have been the gin.
00:04:26.000 Could have been the six-far or two-far.
00:04:28.000 You don't even know, man.
00:04:30.000 Could have been all kinds of shit.
00:04:32.000 I assume you're looking up this song.
00:04:35.000 Could have been.
00:04:37.000 It's like, what?
00:04:39.000 Do you need help?
00:04:41.000 It's on that same.
00:04:43.000 What?
00:04:44.000 Help.
00:04:46.000 No, it's like a.
00:04:47.000 I just sang it.
00:04:48.000 It's a folk song.
00:04:49.000 They're like a hardcore skate rock band.
00:04:53.000 It's like the Dubliners of Canada.
00:04:56.000 Wasn't that a party, I believe, is the name of the song.
