(static buzzing)

00:00:20,191 --> 00:00:21,150
- I'm Justin Pearson
5
00:00:21,442 --> 00:00:25,071
and the bands that I'm in
or have been in the whole,
6
00:00:25,363 --> 00:00:28,491
like, there's a starting, Struggle,
7
00:00:28,783 --> 00:00:31,994
and then I briefly played in a
band called Brain Tourniquet,
8
00:00:32,286 --> 00:00:35,456
and Swing Kids, Crimson Curse,
9
00:00:35,748 --> 00:00:38,417
the Locust, Holy Molar,
Ground Unicorn Horn,
10
00:00:38,709 --> 00:00:41,504
Some Girls, All Leather, Leg Lifters,
11
00:00:41,796 --> 00:00:43,422
Dead Cross, Head Wound City.
12
00:00:43,714 --> 00:00:45,550
Maybe one more that I can't think of,
13
00:00:45,841 --> 00:00:47,093
but I think that might be it.

(dramatic punk music)
21
00:01:14,370 --> 00:01:15,788
- [Interviewer] if you had
to describe the kind of music
22
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,165
that you played, how
would you try to put it?
23
00:01:18,457 --> 00:01:21,043
- The best, the most
effective way to describe it,
24
00:01:21,335 --> 00:01:24,130
like, if I had to pick one
would just be annoying.
25
00:01:25,298 --> 00:01:28,134
(energizing music)
26
00:01:30,469 --> 00:01:31,679
So, you know, like at the grocery store,
27
00:01:31,971 --> 00:01:32,805
like, "Oh, you play in a band?
28
00:01:33,097 --> 00:01:33,723
Like, what kind of music is it?"
29
00:01:34,015 --> 00:01:36,475
And if you say punk, they're
gonna think Green Day,
30
00:01:36,767 --> 00:01:37,310
or they're gonna, you know,
31
00:01:37,602 --> 00:01:38,561
I don't know what they're gonna think,
32
00:01:38,853 --> 00:01:40,438
so I just always say annoying.
33
00:01:40,730 --> 00:01:43,274
And it's good because
they normally get confused
34
00:01:43,566 --> 00:01:44,358
and don't talk to you,
35
00:01:44,650 --> 00:01:46,819
or then it just kinda changes the subject.
36
00:01:47,111 --> 00:01:47,903
And that was kind of like how
37
00:01:48,195 --> 00:01:49,739
I took a liking to saying that.
38
00:01:50,031 --> 00:01:51,490
And it's just, I just like,
39
00:01:51,782 --> 00:01:53,159
I just like fucking with people.
40
00:01:53,451 --> 00:01:55,202
- What do you think, really, you know,
41
00:01:55,494 --> 00:01:56,287
in terms of your musical future,
42
00:01:56,579 --> 00:01:57,663
where are you guys headed?
43
00:01:59,332 --> 00:02:00,875
- Down the toilet.
44
00:02:01,167 --> 00:02:02,293
- When you first meet Justin Pearson,
45
00:02:02,585 --> 00:02:04,545
he might come off just a tad off-putting.
46
00:02:04,837 --> 00:02:08,716
- He can sour a mood in a matter of words.
47
00:02:09,008 --> 00:02:11,052
- But it's not, and I don't
mean that in a bad way,
48
00:02:11,344 --> 00:02:13,012
I mean that in a way that like some people
49
00:02:13,304 --> 00:02:15,765
don't have the best reaction
50
00:02:16,057 --> 00:02:16,641
unless the person's just,
51
00:02:16,932 --> 00:02:18,768
"Oh, oh, oh," up their ass, you know?
52
00:02:19,060 --> 00:02:20,853
"Oh, very nice to meet you."
53
00:02:21,145 --> 00:02:22,605
He's just like, "Hey," you know?
54
00:02:22,897 --> 00:02:25,691
- He stood out like a
nail that you trip on.
55
00:02:25,983 --> 00:02:28,778
- He has a reputation for being able
56
00:02:29,070 --> 00:02:30,780
to have a properly functioning
57
00:02:31,072 --> 00:02:32,740
bullshit detector at all times.
58
00:02:33,032 --> 00:02:34,241
- There's no bullshitting.
59
00:02:35,284 --> 00:02:37,536
I actually could pick up on
that when I first met him.
60
00:02:37,828 --> 00:02:39,372
- He always seemed to me like someone
61
00:02:39,664 --> 00:02:41,165
who was ahead of the curve.
62
00:02:41,457 --> 00:02:43,334
People like that are always
just a little intimidating.
63
00:02:43,626 --> 00:02:45,586
- I think he's just this,
like, weird kinda cool dude
64
00:02:45,878 --> 00:02:47,505
that was kind of a dick. (chuckles)
65
00:02:47,797 --> 00:02:48,839
- He just seemed very present.
66
00:02:49,131 --> 00:02:51,550
He just seemed very devoted to his craft
67
00:02:51,842 --> 00:02:53,052
and devoted to...
68
00:02:54,970 --> 00:02:55,638
- [Interviewer] Hold on one second.
69
00:02:55,930 --> 00:02:57,181
- Oh yeah, sure, sorry, what happened?
70
00:02:57,473 --> 00:02:58,933
(people laughing)
71
00:02:59,225 --> 00:03:00,226
Oh my God, that's great.
72
00:03:01,227 --> 00:03:02,937
I would love to have that in the video.
73
00:03:03,229 --> 00:03:03,771
(people laughing)
74
00:03:04,063 --> 00:03:04,730
Who's in there?
75
00:03:05,022 --> 00:03:05,648
- [Interviewer] Charles.
76
00:03:05,940 --> 00:03:08,317
- I'll yell at him.
- No, no, it's no big deal.
77
00:03:08,609 --> 00:03:09,193
- Well he...
78
00:03:09,485 --> 00:03:12,113
Stop flushing the toilet!
(people laughing)
79
00:03:12,405 --> 00:03:14,865
- I kind of make fun of him
and say he's a hippie sometimes
80
00:03:15,157 --> 00:03:16,534
because he's like a secret hippie
81
00:03:16,826 --> 00:03:18,744
'cause he like loves essential oils
82
00:03:19,036 --> 00:03:21,956
and is all about yoga and all this stuff.
83
00:03:22,248 --> 00:03:23,749
But yeah, it's kind
of, it's kind of funny,
84
00:03:24,041 --> 00:03:26,001
the difference between I
think what people think he is
85
00:03:26,293 --> 00:03:28,629
and how he is in just the average day.
86
00:03:30,214 --> 00:03:33,884
(energetic electronic music)
87
00:03:39,890 --> 00:03:43,686
(energetic electronic music)
88
00:03:43,978 --> 00:03:45,563
- But when he has so many
tracks, I'll be like,
89
00:03:45,855 --> 00:03:46,564
"Wait, wait, what's that?"
90
00:03:46,856 --> 00:03:48,566
Like that one, the blue
one or whatever, you know,
91
00:03:48,858 --> 00:03:50,609
and like, dude, he can't even hear that,
92
00:03:50,901 --> 00:03:51,444
it sounds so cool.
93
00:03:51,736 --> 00:03:53,237
Bring out, like, take
out all this other stuff
94
00:03:53,529 --> 00:03:55,698
and luckily he's not like
a dick to me about it.
95
00:03:55,990 --> 00:03:59,243
- I'll pretty much work until we say stop.
96
00:03:59,535 --> 00:04:00,995
If not, I'll keep layering.
97
00:04:02,705 --> 00:04:06,459
(energizing electronic music)
98
00:04:08,085 --> 00:04:10,421
- When he was first born, I wanted a girl,
99
00:04:10,713 --> 00:04:12,757
'cause I grew up with three brothers,
100
00:04:13,048 --> 00:04:15,843
but when I saw how
beautiful a baby he was,
101
00:04:16,135 --> 00:04:17,261
I mean, it was like, yeah, I'll take him,
102
00:04:17,553 --> 00:04:18,596
I'll keep him. (chuckles)
103
00:04:18,888 --> 00:04:21,223
And he was, he was a really good kid.
104
00:04:21,515 --> 00:04:24,477
- I grew up in Phoenix and San Diego.
105
00:04:24,769 --> 00:04:25,853
I mean, I was born in Chicago,
106
00:04:26,145 --> 00:04:28,189
but I was only there until
I was eight months old,
107
00:04:28,481 --> 00:04:30,232
which sucks in retrospect,
going back there,
108
00:04:30,524 --> 00:04:31,066
I think it's rad.
109
00:04:31,358 --> 00:04:33,527
I would've rather have grown
up in Chicago than Phoenix.
110
00:04:33,819 --> 00:04:34,820
- [Interviewer] Yeah,
Chicago's pretty cool.
111
00:04:35,112 --> 00:04:36,071
- And Phoenix is not cool.
112
00:04:36,363 --> 00:04:37,114
- [Interviewer] What was Phoenix like?
113
00:04:37,406 --> 00:04:37,948
- Shitty.
114
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:39,992
Yeah, like around 10 years old,
115
00:04:40,284 --> 00:04:42,703
I just, I found
skateboarding and it, like,
116
00:04:42,995 --> 00:04:44,580
it changed my life and it was sort of like
117
00:04:44,872 --> 00:04:48,375
the segue to music for
me because of Thrasher
118
00:04:48,667 --> 00:04:51,045
and that's what I grabbed onto as a kid.
119
00:04:51,337 --> 00:04:54,340
Well I got my first skateboard
in San Diego on vacation.
120
00:04:54,632 --> 00:04:55,716
I found it in an alley.
121
00:04:56,008 --> 00:04:57,885
When we lived in Phoenix, we
would vacation to San Diego
122
00:04:58,177 --> 00:04:59,637
to this place called Mission Beach.
123
00:04:59,929 --> 00:05:01,138
There's like a boardwalk
and a lot of tourism
124
00:05:01,430 --> 00:05:03,307
and there was a lot of
surf and skateboard shops.
125
00:05:03,599 --> 00:05:05,643
We went to like Burger King or something
126
00:05:05,935 --> 00:05:08,729
and it was in the alley
behind the place that we were,
127
00:05:09,021 --> 00:05:09,855
you know, that we parked at.
128
00:05:10,147 --> 00:05:13,692
So I just randomly saw
this green skateboard
129
00:05:15,069 --> 00:05:16,695
and I was scared like, "Oh my god,
130
00:05:16,987 --> 00:05:19,490
someone's going to be pissed
that I have their skateboard."
131
00:05:19,782 --> 00:05:22,535
But you know, my dad was
like, "Take it, it's there."
132
00:05:22,827 --> 00:05:24,370
And so I remember the whole
time I was in San Diego,
133
00:05:24,662 --> 00:05:25,996
I would just, it was like I didn't have
134
00:05:26,288 --> 00:05:27,122
to stick around with my parents.
135
00:05:27,414 --> 00:05:28,457
I went everywhere.
136
00:05:30,501 --> 00:05:32,628
- The skateboarding was fine.
137
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,463
Skateboarding, he really liked that
138
00:05:34,755 --> 00:05:37,716
and he would do that when he
was in like middle school.
139
00:05:38,008 --> 00:05:39,051
Right before we left Phoenix,
140
00:05:39,343 --> 00:05:42,471
he started getting into
the punk rock stuff, too.
141
00:05:42,763 --> 00:05:43,305
- It was like this weird shift.
142
00:05:43,597 --> 00:05:45,975
I mean, I remember like being
into like Star Wars toys,
143
00:05:46,267 --> 00:05:48,185
kids stuff and like Nintendo
and then all of a sudden
144
00:05:48,477 --> 00:05:50,020
I was like, oh, I'm into skateboarding
145
00:05:50,312 --> 00:05:53,524
and into like punk and
into like blowing shit up
146
00:05:53,816 --> 00:05:54,942
and like shoplifting and stuff.
147
00:05:55,234 --> 00:05:56,944
Like, oh, I'm gonna be like bad now
148
00:05:57,236 --> 00:05:58,445
and be into all this bad stuff.
149
00:05:58,737 --> 00:05:59,947
Because you know, at
that time skateboarding
150
00:06:00,239 --> 00:06:01,365
wasn't as mainstream and like, yeah,
151
00:06:01,657 --> 00:06:03,701
I just remember my parents
like being really bummed
152
00:06:03,993 --> 00:06:05,327
that I was into this stuff, you know?
153
00:06:05,619 --> 00:06:06,745
Which also fueled it, you know?
154
00:06:07,037 --> 00:06:08,205
It's like, cool, you guys are not into it,
155
00:06:08,497 --> 00:06:09,582
so I'm gonna do that.
156
00:06:09,874 --> 00:06:10,958
And I really do think, like,
157
00:06:11,250 --> 00:06:15,045
if I didn't sort of discover
that world of stuff,
158
00:06:15,337 --> 00:06:17,715
being in Phoenix would've went down, like,
159
00:06:18,007 --> 00:06:19,508
a really stupid route.
160
00:06:21,510 --> 00:06:22,845
I was like a sponge, like soaking it up.
161
00:06:23,137 --> 00:06:24,972
It was lot of, like, kind
of weird crossover stuff.
162
00:06:25,264 --> 00:06:27,349
'Cause it was like when Beastie Boys'
163
00:06:27,641 --> 00:06:29,768
"Licensed to Ill," came out,
so I was really into that
164
00:06:30,060 --> 00:06:32,521
and I was really into
Slayer "Show No Mercy,"
165
00:06:32,813 --> 00:06:36,609
so it was like rap and metal, you know?
166
00:06:36,901 --> 00:06:38,110
But to me it was just all, like,
167
00:06:38,402 --> 00:06:41,989
it all just seemed annoying
and my parents hated it all
168
00:06:42,281 --> 00:06:43,782
and so I thought it was cool.
169
00:06:44,074 --> 00:06:46,952
I hated my parents, so I was
like, yeah, that's great.
170
00:06:47,244 --> 00:06:48,495
This is gonna be my life.
171
00:06:48,787 --> 00:06:49,747
If I did anything wrong,
172
00:06:50,039 --> 00:06:51,123
like my parents would take my skateboard
173
00:06:51,415 --> 00:06:53,000
or they would break my records
174
00:06:53,292 --> 00:06:55,085
or smash my tapes or whatever and, like,
175
00:06:55,377 --> 00:06:58,422
they helped me off to a good
start, you know? (laughs)
176
00:06:58,714 --> 00:07:00,674
Yeah. I needed that.
177
00:07:00,966 --> 00:07:03,177
I needed to know that it
was like not acceptable.
178
00:07:05,012 --> 00:07:06,013
My dad was rarely cool.
179
00:07:06,305 --> 00:07:07,431
There was like probably like five times
180
00:07:07,723 --> 00:07:08,974
where I thought like,
wow, he's really cool.
181
00:07:09,266 --> 00:07:10,434
I mean, and my perception was
182
00:07:10,726 --> 00:07:12,227
he just didn't like his family,
183
00:07:12,519 --> 00:07:15,064
like the jerk in like a John Hughes film,
184
00:07:15,356 --> 00:07:17,191
because he knows that I was aware
185
00:07:17,483 --> 00:07:18,651
that he'd beat the crap out of my mom
186
00:07:18,943 --> 00:07:20,778
and give her a black eye or
something like that, you know?
187
00:07:21,070 --> 00:07:23,072
And then, you know, he
felt bad or something.
188
00:07:23,364 --> 00:07:24,490
I'm pretty sure they just thought
189
00:07:24,782 --> 00:07:26,033
I was oblivious to it, you know?
190
00:07:26,325 --> 00:07:26,951
But I mean, I saw all of it.
191
00:07:27,242 --> 00:07:28,577
I saw all of the shit that my parents
192
00:07:28,869 --> 00:07:29,787
would do to each other.
193
00:07:30,079 --> 00:07:32,623
He would just get wasted and pass out
194
00:07:32,915 --> 00:07:33,749
and I would just steal all his money
195
00:07:34,041 --> 00:07:35,584
and essentially use
that and go buy records
196
00:07:35,876 --> 00:07:37,503
or do things that I, you know,
197
00:07:37,795 --> 00:07:39,046
knew that he wouldn't be into
198
00:07:39,338 --> 00:07:40,839
because here's this like,
199
00:07:41,131 --> 00:07:44,677
asshole, alcoholic, misogynist jerk
200
00:07:44,969 --> 00:07:47,346
telling me, I'm like, into bad stuff.
201
00:07:47,638 --> 00:07:48,681
I'm like, you're a bad person.
202
00:07:48,973 --> 00:07:50,265
So, you know, like, I don't know.
203
00:07:50,557 --> 00:07:51,725
I don't think it's that big of a deal.
204
00:07:52,017 --> 00:07:53,560
So my dad was just spiraling
205
00:07:53,852 --> 00:07:56,355
down this sort of sketchy route in life.
206
00:07:56,647 --> 00:07:59,775
He lost his job and he
had a bunch of DUIs.
207
00:08:00,067 --> 00:08:02,236
There were always these people
calling our house for him
208
00:08:02,528 --> 00:08:05,114
and I was told, like, "if
anyone calls for your dad,
209
00:08:05,406 --> 00:08:06,115
he doesn't live here."
210
00:08:06,407 --> 00:08:11,036
But the weirdest thing was
the night that he died,
211
00:08:11,328 --> 00:08:14,707
we went to this school function.
212
00:08:14,999 --> 00:08:16,792
We were dressed as terrorists, you know,
213
00:08:17,084 --> 00:08:18,877
with panty hose over our faces and shit.
214
00:08:19,169 --> 00:08:21,046
So it was like the night before Halloween.
215
00:08:21,338 --> 00:08:23,257
I remember running home
really quick to get something,
216
00:08:23,549 --> 00:08:25,092
like camouflage clothing or something,
217
00:08:25,384 --> 00:08:28,345
and my dad wasn't supposed to be there,
218
00:08:28,637 --> 00:08:30,014
so I was like, "Oh,"
and grabbing my stuff.
219
00:08:30,305 --> 00:08:32,725
And I remember him making
this really strange effort
220
00:08:33,017 --> 00:08:34,768
to talk to me and to, like,
221
00:08:35,894 --> 00:08:37,479
ask what I'm doing and ask how I'm doing
222
00:08:37,771 --> 00:08:39,106
and I was just like, "Well fuck you, man.
223
00:08:39,398 --> 00:08:40,399
I'm outta here. This is stupid.
224
00:08:40,691 --> 00:08:41,859
Like, you don't ever talk to me."
225
00:08:42,151 --> 00:08:45,988
And I remember about to
leave to go out the door
226
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:47,948
and he hugged me and kissed me.
227
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:49,491
And I just remember leaving and thinking,
228
00:08:49,783 --> 00:08:52,619
"That was weird," and then
hadn't thought about it
229
00:08:52,911 --> 00:08:55,873
for like years and, you
know, until years later
230
00:08:56,165 --> 00:08:57,833
when I was like, wow,
that night was strange
231
00:08:58,125 --> 00:09:01,211
because it felt like he'd
made some sort of effort,
232
00:09:01,503 --> 00:09:05,466
which he had not made effort ever.
233
00:09:06,633 --> 00:09:08,385
And I remember staying at my friends
234
00:09:08,677 --> 00:09:09,845
and I remember sleeping on his floor
235
00:09:10,137 --> 00:09:12,097
and the phone in the house kept ringing
236
00:09:12,389 --> 00:09:15,142
and it was like four in
the morning or something
237
00:09:15,434 --> 00:09:16,643
and it was just ringing and
ringing and I was just like,
238
00:09:16,935 --> 00:09:18,103
"Fuck, what the hell's going on
239
00:09:18,395 --> 00:09:20,355
with my friend's family," or whatever.
240
00:09:20,647 --> 00:09:24,359
And then right when the sun
started to kind of come up,
241
00:09:24,651 --> 00:09:27,279
I remember like kinda
hearing a woman crying
242
00:09:27,571 --> 00:09:29,073
in the other room and I was just like,
243
00:09:29,364 --> 00:09:30,991
this is probably not good.
244
00:09:31,283 --> 00:09:34,119
And then eventually my friend's mom
245
00:09:34,411 --> 00:09:35,537
took my friend Mike out of the room
246
00:09:35,829 --> 00:09:37,998
and then my mom came in and
it was her that was crying
247
00:09:38,290 --> 00:09:40,250
and you know, she told
me, "Your dad's dead."
248
00:09:40,542 --> 00:09:44,004
And I didn't react. I didn't
really know what to think.
249
00:09:44,296 --> 00:09:45,130
I didn't like know what to do,
250
00:09:45,422 --> 00:09:46,048
and I was just like, "All right."
251
00:09:46,340 --> 00:09:48,467
And so we got up and
went back to our house
252
00:09:48,759 --> 00:09:51,428
and the police were there and
the whole front lawn was like,
253
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:52,513
you know, taped off.
254
00:09:52,805 --> 00:09:53,388
My grandmother was there.
255
00:09:53,680 --> 00:09:57,893
And I just remember not
understanding it for a long time.
256
00:09:58,185 --> 00:10:00,854
He went to this, I guess he
had like some kind of meeting,
257
00:10:01,146 --> 00:10:02,773
like a work meeting at the first new job
258
00:10:03,065 --> 00:10:04,358
and he got wasted afterwards
259
00:10:04,650 --> 00:10:06,068
and it was at a restaurant that had a bar.
260
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,404
Started hitting on this girl
and she had two friends.
261
00:10:09,696 --> 00:10:10,781
One was 19 and one was 21
262
00:10:11,073 --> 00:10:13,033
and they got in an altercation
263
00:10:13,325 --> 00:10:15,828
and so the place threw all of them out.
264
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,413
And so they followed him to our house
265
00:10:18,705 --> 00:10:20,666
and then in the driveway got out
266
00:10:20,958 --> 00:10:23,710
and hit him with the
crowbar or a tire iron.
267
00:10:25,838 --> 00:10:28,423
He had a brain aneurysm,
which is why he would,
268
00:10:28,715 --> 00:10:31,718
that's why he would get drunk
all the time really easily.
269
00:10:32,010 --> 00:10:34,346
When the hit happened, the
brain aneurysm exploded
270
00:10:34,638 --> 00:10:37,808
and that was what caused the actual death.
271
00:10:38,100 --> 00:10:42,521
So I think in court, it
didn't hold up for some reason
272
00:10:42,813 --> 00:10:45,774
and regardless, the
people didn't go to jail.
273
00:10:47,818 --> 00:10:48,944
It was a bummer. (chuckles)
274
00:10:49,236 --> 00:10:53,282
I mean, you know, so yeah,
Halloween just, it's just weird.
275
00:10:53,574 --> 00:10:56,702
And even growing up, even like
in my early 20s and stuff,
276
00:10:56,994 --> 00:10:59,538
it wasn't really that
Halloween was sad for me,
277
00:10:59,830 --> 00:11:02,291
but it was sad because I
thought about my mom a lot
278
00:11:02,583 --> 00:11:04,334
and I thought she must be upset
279
00:11:04,626 --> 00:11:07,754
and it must be hard for
her to kind of reflect,
280
00:11:08,046 --> 00:11:09,506
'cause she still is in love with my dad,
281
00:11:09,798 --> 00:11:12,718
which is hard for me
to understand because,
282
00:11:13,010 --> 00:11:14,636
you know, of the abuse.
283
00:11:14,928 --> 00:11:15,596
But then at the same
time, I would think like,
284
00:11:15,888 --> 00:11:17,973
well, my mom's not gonna
get beat up anymore.
285
00:11:18,974 --> 00:11:19,892
But she did.
286
00:11:20,184 --> 00:11:23,562
Not too long after my mom
got her next boyfriend
287
00:11:23,854 --> 00:11:27,608
who was just, was worse than my dad.
288
00:11:27,900 --> 00:11:30,402
Instantly got this new
boyfriend that beat me
289
00:11:30,694 --> 00:11:32,571
and her up and our dog.
290
00:11:33,655 --> 00:11:35,324
So I never really had time to, like,
291
00:11:35,616 --> 00:11:36,158
to process it, you know?
292
00:11:36,450 --> 00:11:38,035
'Cause I didn't have parenting.
293
00:11:38,327 --> 00:11:39,786
I didn't have like normal morals
294
00:11:40,078 --> 00:11:42,998
that I guess you would
give to or teach to a child
295
00:11:43,290 --> 00:11:44,708
or a preteen, you know?
296
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,418
I just, it was fucked up.
297
00:11:46,710 --> 00:11:48,837
I mean, it was a weird
mix of things, you know,
298
00:11:49,129 --> 00:11:51,924
because I remember already like
starting to fight at school
299
00:11:52,216 --> 00:11:53,425
and like fighting people.
300
00:11:54,676 --> 00:11:55,886
(Justin sniffles)
301
00:11:56,178 --> 00:11:57,596
(airplane engine
whooshing in the distance)
302
00:11:57,888 --> 00:12:01,642
(interviewer speaks indistinctly)
303
00:12:01,934 --> 00:12:06,730
You should call the airport,
tell 'em... (laughs)
304
00:12:07,856 --> 00:12:09,274
- Justin, I'm surprised, you know,
305
00:12:09,566 --> 00:12:12,486
Davis never let anybody
else use that camera,
306
00:12:12,778 --> 00:12:14,196
ever, except grandma?
307
00:12:15,781 --> 00:12:20,702
- [Friend] Hello.
308
00:12:21,161 --> 00:12:23,330
(kids laughing)
309
00:12:23,622 --> 00:12:25,582
- So for whatever
reason, when my dad died,
310
00:12:26,541 --> 00:12:29,044
my mom wanted to bring
his ashes to Mission Beach
311
00:12:29,336 --> 00:12:31,338
or Pacific Beach, but that trip was a mess
312
00:12:31,630 --> 00:12:34,883
because I remember
flying and she had to get
313
00:12:35,175 --> 00:12:36,551
this special paperwork to be able
314
00:12:36,843 --> 00:12:39,888
to bring his ashes, and
they, it was fucked up.
315
00:12:40,180 --> 00:12:43,058
They made her open the urn
and they were like pushing,
316
00:12:43,350 --> 00:12:46,478
like they stuck a pen in the
ashes and like, crazy shit.
317
00:12:46,770 --> 00:12:48,355
And my mom was so pissed
318
00:12:48,647 --> 00:12:50,482
and I just felt bad for her, you know?
319
00:12:50,774 --> 00:12:51,733
- Justin go away.
320
00:12:52,025 --> 00:12:52,859
I'm talking to grandma.
321
00:12:53,151 --> 00:12:54,194
- [Justin] Again? (laughs)
322
00:12:54,486 --> 00:12:56,238
- [Karen] Come on, don't waste the film.
323
00:12:56,530 --> 00:12:58,991
- So we got to San Diego eventually
324
00:12:59,283 --> 00:13:00,575
and she was pretty drunk
325
00:13:00,867 --> 00:13:01,868
and I remember her trying
326
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:03,745
to throw the ashes out into the ocean
327
00:13:04,037 --> 00:13:05,414
and it was like blowing back
328
00:13:05,706 --> 00:13:08,166
and I was just like,
"This is fucking lame."
329
00:13:09,543 --> 00:13:13,297
But it was that night that
she met her new boyfriend
330
00:13:13,588 --> 00:13:17,217
and I saw, like, through
the door of the hotel room
331
00:13:17,509 --> 00:13:18,885
kind of cracked open and
she was like kissing him
332
00:13:19,177 --> 00:13:20,262
and I was like, "What
the fuck is going on?"
333
00:13:20,554 --> 00:13:21,430
I didn't say that, but I was thinking it.
334
00:13:21,722 --> 00:13:23,140
"What the is going on?"
335
00:13:23,432 --> 00:13:25,058
And then a couple days later it was like,
336
00:13:25,350 --> 00:13:26,143
oh, there's a new dude.
337
00:13:26,435 --> 00:13:27,644
Back in Arizona, he would,
338
00:13:27,936 --> 00:13:29,771
he came out there to visit and stuff.
339
00:13:30,063 --> 00:13:32,024
And I was like, "That was quick."
340
00:13:33,025 --> 00:13:34,609
And it was bad.
341
00:13:34,901 --> 00:13:39,448
The first trip that he took
to visit my mom, he hit me.
342
00:13:41,533 --> 00:13:42,200
I mean, I was pretty shitty.
343
00:13:42,492 --> 00:13:45,120
I was, I like, I just remember
like, just being like,
344
00:13:46,747 --> 00:13:49,750
"Fuck you," to my mom
about everything, you know?
345
00:13:50,042 --> 00:13:54,046
But this guy had no place to
try to parent me, you know?
346
00:13:54,338 --> 00:13:58,008
I mean, we had just met
and, like, my dad just died
347
00:13:58,300 --> 00:14:00,552
and my parents were not really effective.
348
00:14:01,470 --> 00:14:03,764
So my mom moved us to San Diego
349
00:14:04,056 --> 00:14:06,433
and bought this new house
that this new guy, Frank,
350
00:14:06,725 --> 00:14:07,601
also lived in.
351
00:14:07,893 --> 00:14:08,560
It was a weird transition.
352
00:14:08,852 --> 00:14:10,771
So when my mom got this new
boyfriend and she kind of,
353
00:14:11,063 --> 00:14:12,189
she checked out a bit more
354
00:14:12,481 --> 00:14:13,982
and so I had like a lot more freedom
355
00:14:14,274 --> 00:14:15,942
and so then I would
start discovering stuff.
356
00:14:16,234 --> 00:14:19,112
And I remember being 12
and going to see The Cramps
357
00:14:19,404 --> 00:14:21,281
and I discovered a bunch of crazy shit
358
00:14:21,573 --> 00:14:23,325
because I started going to Tijuana.
359
00:14:23,617 --> 00:14:26,411
There was this venue down
there that was 18 and up
360
00:14:26,703 --> 00:14:28,997
and I got a fake ID when I was 13
361
00:14:29,289 --> 00:14:30,374
and I would just go to TJ
362
00:14:30,665 --> 00:14:35,087
and like see PIL pretty
early on, Agnostic Front.
363
00:14:35,379 --> 00:14:36,546
I didn't really like them.
364
00:14:36,838 --> 00:14:41,134
Or like MDC, Circle
Jerks, you know, and GBH.
365
00:14:41,426 --> 00:14:42,761
It was pretty, pretty rad.
366
00:14:43,053 --> 00:14:45,013
I mean, I was like 13 and 14 years old,
367
00:14:45,305 --> 00:14:48,642
sneaking out of my house and
sneaking into another country.
368
00:14:48,934 --> 00:14:49,810
I don't know how or why,
369
00:14:50,102 --> 00:14:51,395
but I talked my mom into buying me
370
00:14:51,686 --> 00:14:55,982
this like $150 Washburn bass guitar
371
00:14:56,274 --> 00:14:58,360
and so that was kind of
like, that was kind of it.
372
00:14:58,652 --> 00:15:01,029
And I didn't really have an objective
373
00:15:01,321 --> 00:15:04,241
except that I started
hanging out with Jose.
374
00:15:04,533 --> 00:15:07,744
- I remember going with Justin to Phoenix.
375
00:15:08,036 --> 00:15:09,996
- We went and saw Suicidal Tendencies play
376
00:15:10,288 --> 00:15:11,498
on my 15th birthday.
377
00:15:11,790 --> 00:15:12,791
- I was kind of scared, you know?
378
00:15:13,083 --> 00:15:15,085
I'm Latino, there's a whole bunch
379
00:15:15,377 --> 00:15:17,295
of Nazi skinheads at this show.
380
00:15:17,587 --> 00:15:18,839
- And there was this huge skinhead.
381
00:15:19,131 --> 00:15:21,633
He had one tattoo on
his arm that just said,
382
00:15:21,925 --> 00:15:24,886
"I hate (bleep)," and I
just remember thinking like,
383
00:15:25,178 --> 00:15:27,013
"How fucking frightening."
384
00:15:27,305 --> 00:15:30,100
- And I don't know what
the fuck's gonna happen,
385
00:15:30,392 --> 00:15:32,102
but I know that Justin had my back.
386
00:15:32,394 --> 00:15:33,228
- But we were like watching a band
387
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,940
that has Latinos and Blacks in it.
388
00:15:37,232 --> 00:15:38,567
He's there to see Suicidal Tendencies,
389
00:15:38,859 --> 00:15:40,318
but he's just a fuckin' idiot, you know?
390
00:15:40,610 --> 00:15:43,780
So we got like very
political and confrontational
391
00:15:44,072 --> 00:15:45,657
and pissed people off.
392
00:15:45,949 --> 00:15:47,701
- That no matter what, he's willing to get
393
00:15:47,993 --> 00:15:50,829
his nose broken with me
if anybody fucks with me.
394
00:15:51,121 --> 00:15:53,248
And so that was like the
night that I was, like,
395
00:15:53,540 --> 00:15:55,417
I like this person, I like this kid.
396
00:15:55,709 --> 00:15:57,169
I think we're gonna be
friends for a long time.
397
00:15:57,461 --> 00:15:58,003
- That night we were like,
398
00:15:58,295 --> 00:15:59,629
we're gonna start a band, you know?
399
00:16:00,881 --> 00:16:04,384
(hardcore punk rock music)
400
00:16:06,511 --> 00:16:08,346
The thing is it wasn't about the music.
401
00:16:09,306 --> 00:16:11,349
That was just kind of
like this sort of vessel
402
00:16:11,641 --> 00:16:14,895
to just be like fuck you
to you and fuck you to you.
403
00:16:15,187 --> 00:16:18,607
And like, just kind of
start dealing with our shit.
404
00:16:18,899 --> 00:16:20,484
- [Jose] We just wanted to do something.
405
00:16:20,775 --> 00:16:23,320
We wanted to play music and we also wanted
406
00:16:23,612 --> 00:16:24,488
to get a message across.
407
00:16:24,779 --> 00:16:26,072
- [Justin] So now all of
a sudden I'm in a band
408
00:16:26,364 --> 00:16:27,908
with these three of my other friends
409
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,785
and we can say a bunch of shit
that we think is relevant.
410
00:16:31,077 --> 00:16:33,038
- There was a lot of stuff
in San Diego happening
411
00:16:33,330 --> 00:16:34,164
with the Border Patrol.
412
00:16:34,456 --> 00:16:37,000
There was a lot of stuff
around police brutality.
413
00:16:37,292 --> 00:16:41,213
So I felt like a lot of
our lyrics focused on that.
414
00:16:41,505 --> 00:16:42,547
- I think he was telling
me that he went on tour
415
00:16:42,839 --> 00:16:45,383
with Struggle when he was like
15 or something like that,
416
00:16:45,675 --> 00:16:48,595
which is incredible, that
he was able to do that.
417
00:16:48,887 --> 00:16:51,932
I think he probably just
had the bite very early on.
418
00:16:52,224 --> 00:16:55,268
- He was 15 and I bought him a van
419
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,646
and they were going on tour,
420
00:16:57,938 --> 00:16:59,356
he and the rest of the band members.
421
00:16:59,648 --> 00:17:04,069
One of the drummer's father
got the van registered
422
00:17:04,361 --> 00:17:05,904
so that they could drive the van
423
00:17:06,196 --> 00:17:07,030
because it wasn't registered
424
00:17:07,322 --> 00:17:09,115
and these kids were 15 years old
425
00:17:09,407 --> 00:17:11,868
and I took a chance and let him go.
426
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,787
- I'm pretty grateful
because I ended up bypassing
427
00:17:14,079 --> 00:17:17,290
a lot of stupid shit
that kids do, you know?
428
00:17:17,582 --> 00:17:21,253
Like, it, a lot of that
stuff didn't matter to me.
429
00:17:21,545 --> 00:17:23,713
Like what to do on the weekend?
430
00:17:24,005 --> 00:17:26,049
Just seemed irrelevant,
I mean, at that point.
431
00:17:26,341 --> 00:17:29,135
- And the worst thing he ever
did was he had dreadlocks.
432
00:17:29,427 --> 00:17:33,139
- I don't know, I remember
I had grown dreadlocks
433
00:17:33,431 --> 00:17:34,975
and they were just, my hair was gross.
434
00:17:35,267 --> 00:17:38,562
I was, I mean, I was a
pretty gross person I guess,
435
00:17:38,853 --> 00:17:41,439
you know, like I was a
scummy punk or whatever.
436
00:17:41,731 --> 00:17:43,149
And my mom just came in the house
437
00:17:43,441 --> 00:17:47,028
and like just flipped out
at how disgusting I was
438
00:17:48,446 --> 00:17:52,909
and she hit me and said
something about my girlfriend
439
00:17:53,201 --> 00:17:54,703
and "Get out of house!"
440
00:17:54,995 --> 00:17:57,622
And I was like, "All right,
fuck you, I'm out. I'll split."
441
00:17:57,914 --> 00:17:59,207
In retrospect, I'm pretty
sure she didn't think
442
00:17:59,499 --> 00:18:00,834
I would leave for good,
443
00:18:01,126 --> 00:18:02,919
but I left the house, basically,
444
00:18:03,211 --> 00:18:04,588
because I was getting
sick of getting beat up
445
00:18:04,879 --> 00:18:05,714
by my mom's boyfriend.
446
00:18:06,006 --> 00:18:10,802
And I graduated high school
living in a co-op that was,
447
00:18:11,136 --> 00:18:12,554
you know, full of hippies and shit.
448
00:18:12,846 --> 00:18:13,430
It was weird.
449
00:18:13,722 --> 00:18:15,890
I used to have my nose pierced
right here at the center,
450
00:18:16,182 --> 00:18:19,394
and I did it myself with a
safety pin and it got infected.
451
00:18:19,686 --> 00:18:22,522
Our first band breaks up
because people are moving
452
00:18:22,814 --> 00:18:26,318
to go to college and we started
another band, Swing Kids.
453
00:18:26,610 --> 00:18:29,237
And soon as we had an option to tour,
454
00:18:30,405 --> 00:18:31,281
it wasn't that you question it,
455
00:18:31,573 --> 00:18:33,325
you just get fired and you go on tour
456
00:18:33,617 --> 00:18:35,201
and then you come back and
do the same thing again.
457
00:18:35,493 --> 00:18:38,079
Get another shitty job
until the next tour.
458
00:18:38,371 --> 00:18:40,999
(punk rock music)
459
00:18:47,631 --> 00:18:50,258
So with Struggle, it was
very overtly political.
460
00:18:50,550 --> 00:18:53,053
The obvious political slant was alienating
461
00:18:53,345 --> 00:18:54,304
to a lot of people.
462
00:18:54,596 --> 00:18:57,849
And not that they didn't
share the same beliefs,
463
00:18:58,141 --> 00:19:01,019
we would sort of just
kind of bum people out
464
00:19:01,311 --> 00:19:05,065
by just always being very
serious and being pissed.
465
00:19:05,357 --> 00:19:07,567
Swing Kids was saying like,
we're into like cool shit,
466
00:19:07,859 --> 00:19:09,569
like weird jazz.
467
00:19:09,861 --> 00:19:13,073
- I brought in sort of
the free jazz component.
468
00:19:13,365 --> 00:19:15,575
I was very much influenced by the politics
469
00:19:15,867 --> 00:19:18,870
of Anthony Braxton and Cecil Taylor.
470
00:19:19,162 --> 00:19:22,957
(frenzied piano music)
471
00:19:23,249 --> 00:19:25,418
- People said he wasn't a
jazz musician because he was,
472
00:19:25,710 --> 00:19:27,337
it was almost like noise.
473
00:19:27,629 --> 00:19:28,922
- I wouldn't call it just noise
474
00:19:29,214 --> 00:19:30,757
because that noise is reflective
475
00:19:31,049 --> 00:19:33,593
of what's happening with those
people who are producing it.
476
00:19:33,885 --> 00:19:37,180
And so for me as a person of
color living in the border,
477
00:19:37,472 --> 00:19:40,517
having been born in Tijuana,
growing up in San Diego,
478
00:19:40,809 --> 00:19:42,102
to me, I could definitely relate
479
00:19:42,394 --> 00:19:47,190
with that kind of vibe that
those artists were introducing
480
00:19:47,649 --> 00:19:48,483
when they were around.
481
00:19:48,775 --> 00:19:50,944
- Going into the realm of jazz,
482
00:19:51,236 --> 00:19:54,239
talking about Cecil Taylor
or bringing in, like,
483
00:19:54,531 --> 00:19:55,573
the relevance of, I don't know,
484
00:19:55,865 --> 00:19:57,534
like Naked City or something.
485
00:19:57,826 --> 00:20:02,622
(frenzied punk music)
(singers screaming)
486
00:20:10,338 --> 00:20:11,423
And it brought in all these things
487
00:20:11,715 --> 00:20:14,884
that I don't think we were
consciously really aware of,
488
00:20:15,176 --> 00:20:17,929
which was like the tambour of notes
489
00:20:18,221 --> 00:20:19,889
and the structure of songs
490
00:20:20,181 --> 00:20:23,101
and the rephrasing of what
music is supposed to be.
491
00:20:23,393 --> 00:20:25,770
There wasn't a focus on melody.
492
00:20:26,062 --> 00:20:28,773
There was a focus on tension and release.
493
00:20:29,065 --> 00:20:30,608
So we started just kind of getting,
494
00:20:30,900 --> 00:20:33,236
for the lack of better
words, into weirder shit.
495
00:20:34,696 --> 00:20:38,700
(frenzied electric guitar music)
496
00:20:48,418 --> 00:20:51,171
(punk rock music)
497
00:21:04,559 --> 00:21:06,227
So there was this sort of world
498
00:21:06,519 --> 00:21:08,688
where you could start
introducing other things
499
00:21:08,980 --> 00:21:10,231
and it was kind of cool.
500
00:21:12,525 --> 00:21:13,902
Because we were still
being very political,
501
00:21:14,194 --> 00:21:16,029
we were still playing benefit shows,
502
00:21:16,321 --> 00:21:17,363
we were still doing these things.
503
00:21:17,655 --> 00:21:19,199
Like we were living lives
504
00:21:19,491 --> 00:21:21,409
that we felt had a political agenda.
505
00:21:21,701 --> 00:21:23,328
How you spend your money is more political
506
00:21:23,620 --> 00:21:26,498
than what you're saying to an audience.
507
00:21:26,790 --> 00:21:28,792
So we were realizing those things.
508
00:21:30,668 --> 00:21:33,421
(punk rock music)
509
00:21:36,841 --> 00:21:38,176
- [Jeremy] Southern California is divided
510
00:21:38,468 --> 00:21:39,093
into three regions.
511
00:21:39,385 --> 00:21:40,720
You got LA, then you got Orange County
512
00:21:41,012 --> 00:21:41,679
and then you got San Diego
513
00:21:41,971 --> 00:21:45,225
and all three places have
completely different worlds
514
00:21:45,517 --> 00:21:47,143
and scenes and things like that.
515
00:21:47,435 --> 00:21:48,853
- [Justin] You think of like
something like Los Angeles
516
00:21:49,145 --> 00:21:50,104
where there is a lot of arts,
517
00:21:50,396 --> 00:21:52,273
but in San Diego there was nowhere to go.
518
00:21:52,565 --> 00:21:55,193
There was nothing that was
being offered to younger people.
519
00:21:55,485 --> 00:21:58,154
It was just only about white tourism.
520
00:21:58,446 --> 00:21:59,906
- I've always been sort
of fascinated by it
521
00:22:00,198 --> 00:22:01,741
because San Diego's a very strange town.
522
00:22:02,033 --> 00:22:04,994
Military town, college bro
town, also a border town
523
00:22:05,286 --> 00:22:08,998
so there's a lot of cultural
melting pot in there, you know?
524
00:22:09,290 --> 00:22:11,835
It's definitely more
interesting than Orange County.
525
00:22:12,126 --> 00:22:15,088
- Now that border region
is kind of like a microcosm
526
00:22:15,380 --> 00:22:17,757
of a larger systemic global apartheid
527
00:22:18,049 --> 00:22:20,426
where people are divided
by these boundaries.
528
00:22:20,718 --> 00:22:22,846
- If you grew up in San Diego
and you weren't like a surfer
529
00:22:23,137 --> 00:22:27,851
or a bro or a jock or
like a a military person,
530
00:22:28,142 --> 00:22:30,520
it was kind of like a
revolting place to be,
531
00:22:30,812 --> 00:22:32,438
so you went the opposite way.
532
00:22:34,524 --> 00:22:37,735
- And San Diego definitely
has a very specific sound.
533
00:22:38,027 --> 00:22:40,738
- I think that the
uniqueness that San Diego has
534
00:22:41,030 --> 00:22:44,409
comes from the fact that
it's not spelled out.
535
00:22:44,701 --> 00:22:48,037
(frenzied punk rock music)
536
00:22:51,374 --> 00:22:53,960
There was no obvious way to do anything.
537
00:22:54,252 --> 00:22:56,880
(punk rock music)
538
00:23:02,635 --> 00:23:04,637
- And there was just a
lot happening all at once.
539
00:23:04,929 --> 00:23:09,309
Bands and visual art and
writers and magazines,
540
00:23:09,601 --> 00:23:12,061
and it was a really exciting time.
541
00:23:12,353 --> 00:23:15,398
- We would find ourselves
playing with hip hop bands
542
00:23:15,690 --> 00:23:16,941
or with funk bands.
543
00:23:17,233 --> 00:23:18,192
For instance, like at the Che Cafe,
544
00:23:18,484 --> 00:23:21,738
I remember, going to the
Che and seeing Heroin play
545
00:23:22,030 --> 00:23:23,907
and a three piece jazz band
546
00:23:24,198 --> 00:23:26,200
and then it was all you can eat spaghetti.
547
00:23:26,492 --> 00:23:29,871
(frenzied punk rock music)
548
00:23:38,129 --> 00:23:41,299
(tense synth music)
549
00:23:41,591 --> 00:23:42,675
San Diego's an expensive city to live in
550
00:23:42,967 --> 00:23:45,762
so we would live in these,
like, shitty neighborhoods
551
00:23:46,054 --> 00:23:49,682
and we would just have
everybody live there.
552
00:23:49,974 --> 00:23:51,809
We rented out the closet, you know?
553
00:23:52,101 --> 00:23:54,062
And everybody shared a room
and when you left on tour,
554
00:23:54,354 --> 00:23:57,148
you subletted your room or whatever.
555
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,360
I mean, it was a big two story
house and it was a duplex,
556
00:24:00,652 --> 00:24:02,987
so the first level was one house
557
00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:04,405
and the top level was the second
558
00:24:04,697 --> 00:24:07,575
but we all kind of intermingled
and the show would be over
559
00:24:07,867 --> 00:24:09,202
and the next morning you'd find someone
560
00:24:09,494 --> 00:24:11,287
rolled up in the drum rug like passed out
561
00:24:11,579 --> 00:24:14,916
or you'd find like syringes
or barf, or, you know,
562
00:24:15,875 --> 00:24:17,543
fuckin' weird shit.
563
00:24:17,835 --> 00:24:18,878
I remember playing, I
remember the Locust played
564
00:24:19,170 --> 00:24:20,672
and at one point someone had brought
565
00:24:20,964 --> 00:24:22,340
a Christmas tree into the house.
566
00:24:22,632 --> 00:24:24,008
We didn't have one, it was just like,
567
00:24:24,300 --> 00:24:25,093
oh, the show's happening, we're playing
568
00:24:25,385 --> 00:24:27,470
and there's a fucking Christmas tree.
569
00:24:27,762 --> 00:24:31,140
(frenzied punk rock music)
570
00:24:39,816 --> 00:24:42,443
- That's kind of like the spirit
of San Diego show sometimes
571
00:24:42,735 --> 00:24:43,319
where you're just like, oh,
572
00:24:43,611 --> 00:24:45,697
there's that girl that dresses
like a chicken sometimes
573
00:24:45,989 --> 00:24:48,282
and she's getting
carried out of the Casbah
574
00:24:48,574 --> 00:24:50,618
for throwing a drink at the bartender.
575
00:24:52,328 --> 00:24:55,832
(frenzied punk rock music)
576
00:24:57,083 --> 00:25:00,670
There was always this naked kid at shows.
577
00:25:00,962 --> 00:25:04,674
I remember a Holy Molar show
where he was just, like,
578
00:25:04,966 --> 00:25:08,052
on top of everybody in the
pit and jumping off stage
579
00:25:08,344 --> 00:25:12,306
and it was, it was a little bit too much.
580
00:25:12,598 --> 00:25:15,226
(people shouting)
581
00:25:17,395 --> 00:25:19,981
- [Audience Member] Somebody
give that man a blow job!
582
00:25:21,024 --> 00:25:22,150
- We were working with these labels
583
00:25:22,442 --> 00:25:23,651
that were just putting
out garbage, you know,
584
00:25:23,943 --> 00:25:26,654
and I thought, like, I
could do that myself.
585
00:25:26,946 --> 00:25:28,656
At least that bad or better.
586
00:25:28,948 --> 00:25:29,741
A lot of it had to do with Eric Allen.
587
00:25:30,033 --> 00:25:32,577
So he was in Unbroken and
Swing Kids and Struggle.
588
00:25:32,869 --> 00:25:35,705
I met Eric before I ever played in a band
589
00:25:35,997 --> 00:25:36,956
and we just felt we could do better.
590
00:25:37,248 --> 00:25:39,125
And so Eric kind of
egged me on, he's like,
591
00:25:39,417 --> 00:25:40,960
"I have these two Unbroken songs.
592
00:25:41,252 --> 00:25:42,670
You should put out this
Unbroken seven inch,
593
00:25:42,962 --> 00:25:45,631
you should repress the Swing
Kid stuff on a new label."
594
00:25:45,923 --> 00:25:47,341
You know, and he would joke around
595
00:25:47,633 --> 00:25:50,678
and he kept calling it JP
Records and shit like that.
596
00:25:50,970 --> 00:25:52,555
And I was like, "Well, I need a name.
597
00:25:52,847 --> 00:25:54,057
I don't know what name to call it."
598
00:25:54,348 --> 00:25:56,601
And so at the time, Swing Kids had covered
599
00:25:56,893 --> 00:25:59,979
"Warsaw" by Joy Division and
it's the chorus to the song.

- We had another record
that we wanted to release
615
00:26:41,521 --> 00:26:43,272
and Justin just said,
"I would love to do it."
616
00:26:43,564 --> 00:26:48,361
The process of it was very,
involved very little stress.
617
00:26:49,112 --> 00:26:52,156
- He was friends with the
dudes and offered up money
618
00:26:52,448 --> 00:26:54,242
to do the recording and do all that stuff.
619
00:26:54,534 --> 00:26:58,663
And back then, that's all I
really fucking hoped to ask for.
620
00:26:58,955 --> 00:27:00,832
And it was just always really cool.
621
00:27:02,750 --> 00:27:05,670
- I guess when I started, like,
622
00:27:05,962 --> 00:27:09,090
getting a little bit more
absurd was this release,
623
00:27:09,382 --> 00:27:10,758
the Crimson Curse Festival,
624
00:27:11,050 --> 00:27:14,053
the "Deer" seven inch,
which came out as a square.
625
00:27:14,345 --> 00:27:17,974
To press this, it's, the cost of a 12 inch
626
00:27:18,266 --> 00:27:21,561
with an additional, like,
fee of cutting it to a shape,
627
00:27:21,853 --> 00:27:23,896
so it's like totally not practical.
628
00:27:24,188 --> 00:27:26,524
Especially like when I was
releasing stuff like this,
629
00:27:26,816 --> 00:27:29,777
this is Three One G number
seven, it was like, you know,
630
00:27:30,069 --> 00:27:32,446
you couldn't really sell a
seven inch for more than,
631
00:27:33,698 --> 00:27:35,324
I don't know, $4 or $5.
632
00:27:35,616 --> 00:27:37,034
Like, that was like the maximum amount
633
00:27:37,326 --> 00:27:38,369
that you could like kind of charge,
634
00:27:38,661 --> 00:27:42,248
so it was, I didn't,
I lost a lot of money.
635
00:27:42,540 --> 00:27:45,126
But it was still, you
know, what I wanted to do
636
00:27:45,418 --> 00:27:49,505
and it came out looking
pretty fucking rad.
637
00:27:49,797 --> 00:27:52,300
- The dude puts out what he
likes, for better or for worse.
638
00:27:52,592 --> 00:27:56,137
- It was ridiculous. So expensive to do.
639
00:27:56,429 --> 00:27:58,055
- [Interviewer] Do you
ever regret those choices?
640
00:27:58,347 --> 00:28:00,933
- No, because I'm glad
I got to see it, like,
641
00:28:01,225 --> 00:28:02,518
you know, be done or whatever.
642
00:28:02,810 --> 00:28:06,230
Otherwise, I think, like,
I mean, I don't know,
643
00:28:06,522 --> 00:28:07,857
when else would you have
seen a square seven inch?
644
00:28:08,149 --> 00:28:08,858
Or I would never have been able
645
00:28:09,150 --> 00:28:10,067
to see a square seven inch, you know,
646
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:14,405
so it was cool for me just to
kind of, like, see it exist.
647
00:28:14,697 --> 00:28:17,617
And I mean, I think doing stuff like that
648
00:28:17,909 --> 00:28:20,828
kind of made Three One G a thing.
649
00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:21,954
Like people were like, "What the fuck?
650
00:28:22,246 --> 00:28:24,081
There's this label doing a square record."
651
00:28:24,373 --> 00:28:28,252
But I had an idea to do, you
know, like a puddle shape,
652
00:28:28,544 --> 00:28:33,007
so it's a puddle and then like
all the body fluid colors.
653
00:28:33,299 --> 00:28:36,469
So there's, there's each color
with a very crude drawing
654
00:28:36,761 --> 00:28:41,557
of the body part that I
guess produces the color.
655
00:28:44,644 --> 00:28:48,147
This is the urine, urine color.
656
00:28:48,439 --> 00:28:49,899
I think, like, that's pretty fuckin' rad,
657
00:28:50,191 --> 00:28:51,067
like a puddle shape.
658
00:28:51,359 --> 00:28:52,485
It was, like, 'cause
we were trying to think
659
00:28:52,777 --> 00:28:56,155
of what shape could you do
that's just kind of stupid
660
00:28:56,447 --> 00:28:59,533
and I was like a puddle
because it just looks, like,
661
00:28:59,825 --> 00:29:02,245
it looks crummy, but the
fact that it's vinyl is just,
662
00:29:02,536 --> 00:29:05,164
I don't know, pretty
rad and just out there.
663
00:29:05,456 --> 00:29:07,375
- They started the business Three One G
664
00:29:07,667 --> 00:29:08,501
to put out a lot of the records
665
00:29:08,793 --> 00:29:10,628
that Justin's fans were
doing and then, you know,
666
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:15,716
became a place of real credibility
for music and community.
667
00:29:17,343 --> 00:29:19,512
- I think what's cool about Three One G
668
00:29:19,804 --> 00:29:22,556
is not just so much the
bands that were on there
669
00:29:22,848 --> 00:29:24,475
and the bands that JP puts out,
670
00:29:24,767 --> 00:29:26,978
I think it's just the whole aesthetic,
671
00:29:27,270 --> 00:29:28,521
the whole presentation of it.
672
00:29:28,813 --> 00:29:31,274
- A lot of the bands are confrontational
673
00:29:31,565 --> 00:29:35,319
and aggressive and I think
that's just about, like,
674
00:29:35,611 --> 00:29:38,739
being a human in America
and in this century
675
00:29:39,031 --> 00:29:41,784
and the, you know, the few
years before this century.
676
00:29:42,076 --> 00:29:44,662
- I feel fortunate that I
was able to release records
677
00:29:44,954 --> 00:29:48,791
to people on a record label
that had the integrity
678
00:29:49,083 --> 00:29:50,084
that Three One G had.
679
00:29:51,127 --> 00:29:51,794
- So Eric Allen to me was, like,
680
00:29:52,086 --> 00:29:54,547
he was like a really good prankster
681
00:29:54,839 --> 00:29:57,133
and that was the main thing
that drew me to that guy.
682
00:29:57,425 --> 00:29:58,843
I don't know, I just
thought he was a genius.
683
00:29:59,135 --> 00:30:00,011
And then he started playing guitar
684
00:30:00,303 --> 00:30:01,929
and I realized that he
really was a genius.
685
00:30:02,221 --> 00:30:03,306
- Oh, I also know that he struggled
686
00:30:03,597 --> 00:30:07,727
with mental health issues the
way that many of us punks do
687
00:30:08,019 --> 00:30:10,938
and still do, you know,
and for us that music,
688
00:30:11,230 --> 00:30:13,858
that cultural production was
a way for us to let it out.
689
00:30:14,150 --> 00:30:17,528
- So, you know, he got involved in drugs
690
00:30:17,820 --> 00:30:20,656
and overdosed on purpose.
691
00:30:20,948 --> 00:30:22,241
He committed suicide.
692
00:30:22,533 --> 00:30:25,536
- And I know that Eric felt
like he couldn't really come out
693
00:30:25,828 --> 00:30:28,289
and address some of the things
that he was dealing with.
694
00:30:28,581 --> 00:30:30,833
- It was weird because,
you know, it was like,
695
00:30:31,834 --> 00:30:34,086
I was pretty mad at him for doing that
696
00:30:34,378 --> 00:30:37,214
because I feel like if
I'd known I would've,
697
00:30:37,506 --> 00:30:38,090
we would've made it better.
698
00:30:38,382 --> 00:30:40,676
Everyone would've made it
better for him, you know?
699
00:30:41,802 --> 00:30:42,720
But it was his own thing, you know,
700
00:30:43,012 --> 00:30:45,139
he wasn't able to tell
anybody and that was that.
701
00:30:45,431 --> 00:30:48,851
- A lot of people who, and
this is not to talk shit,
702
00:30:49,143 --> 00:30:52,188
but a lot of people who all
of a sudden after his death
703
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,900
were bringing flowers
and being all, you know,
704
00:30:56,192 --> 00:30:58,903
emotional and like as if
they were really there
705
00:30:59,195 --> 00:31:00,279
when he was going through the shit,
706
00:31:00,571 --> 00:31:01,989
when he really needed people,
707
00:31:02,281 --> 00:31:03,657
those people were not there.
708
00:31:03,949 --> 00:31:07,578
And so I felt like, for that reason,
709
00:31:07,870 --> 00:31:10,039
I didn't go to his funeral.
710
00:31:11,290 --> 00:31:14,627
(melancholy music)
711
00:31:14,919 --> 00:31:15,461
- [Interviewer] Did you end up going
712
00:31:15,753 --> 00:31:17,213
to that last show that was played?
713
00:31:17,505 --> 00:31:18,589
- [Jose] No, I did not go.
714
00:31:19,673 --> 00:31:21,509
- Is that part of why?
- Yes.
715
00:31:21,801 --> 00:31:22,343
Yeah.
- Okay.
716
00:31:22,635 --> 00:31:24,428
- I want to remember Eric in my own way,
717
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,598
and I know that the kind
of person that he is,
718
00:31:27,890 --> 00:31:28,682
because I've been there,
719
00:31:28,974 --> 00:31:32,978
I've struggled with suicide
ideation and suicide attempts
720
00:31:33,270 --> 00:31:38,067
and so yeah, that's all
I can say about that.
721
00:31:38,943 --> 00:31:41,320
- It's one of those things where he just,
722
00:31:41,612 --> 00:31:45,324
he was like only meant to
be here for a short time
723
00:31:45,616 --> 00:31:48,035
and he made his impact and was done.
724
00:31:48,327 --> 00:31:51,580
- I think JP took Eric
Allen's death pretty heavy.
725
00:31:51,872 --> 00:31:55,459
Kind of took a step back
and kind of was very,
726
00:31:55,751 --> 00:31:58,587
had to look inward and
look at our own culture
727
00:31:58,879 --> 00:32:00,548
as the way that I did,
our own punk culture.
728
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,551
We can say we are against
this and we are against that,
729
00:32:03,843 --> 00:32:05,386
but what the fuck are we for, right?
730
00:32:05,678 --> 00:32:08,556
- It seemed like the end of
the world constantly, you know?
731
00:32:08,848 --> 00:32:11,600
And so it wasn't, like, let's start a band
732
00:32:11,892 --> 00:32:12,518
because this is fun.
733
00:32:12,810 --> 00:32:13,602
It was let's start a band
734
00:32:13,894 --> 00:32:17,440
because we absolutely have to do this,
735
00:32:17,731 --> 00:32:18,274
for whatever reason.
736
00:32:18,566 --> 00:32:20,651
Survival, mental survival, you know,
737
00:32:21,694 --> 00:32:22,820
something along those lines.
738
00:32:23,112 --> 00:32:27,908
And so it was just, there was
just no other option, I guess.
739
00:32:30,536 --> 00:32:32,079
- The origin of the Locust,
740
00:32:32,371 --> 00:32:35,708
it started with the original
drummer, Dave Astor and myself.
741
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,377
So we're walking down the
street kind of asking people
742
00:32:38,669 --> 00:32:42,047
that looked like weirdos,
like if they played bass,
743
00:32:42,339 --> 00:32:43,007
Like, "Hey, do you play bass?
744
00:32:43,299 --> 00:32:43,841
Do you play bass?"
745
00:32:44,133 --> 00:32:47,094
And we ended up running into
one of the guitar players
746
00:32:47,386 --> 00:32:49,847
of a great band called Antioch
Arrow and so he asked him,
747
00:32:50,139 --> 00:32:53,225
"Oh, do you know a bass
player, or do you play bass?"
748
00:32:53,517 --> 00:32:55,561
And he's like, "No, but my friend does,
749
00:32:55,853 --> 00:32:56,562
you know, Justin Pearson."
750
00:32:56,854 --> 00:32:58,147
And we're like, "Oh, that guy?"
751
00:32:58,439 --> 00:33:00,399
So we ended up hitting
him up and, you know,
752
00:33:00,691 --> 00:33:02,109
to our surprise, he's like, "Yeah."
753
00:33:02,401 --> 00:33:06,530
We were kind of just like
crazy, metal punk dudes.
754
00:33:06,822 --> 00:33:09,909
At that point, he was like,
ooh, let's get in Dylan,
755
00:33:10,201 --> 00:33:11,619
who sang in Struggle.
756
00:33:11,911 --> 00:33:14,079
- Dylan's a great singer,
great, fun person,
757
00:33:14,371 --> 00:33:16,832
he'll sing and we'll just
sound like Crossed Out.
758
00:33:17,124 --> 00:33:18,501
But for whatever reason,
759
00:33:18,792 --> 00:33:20,419
Dylan wanted to play second guitar
760
00:33:20,711 --> 00:33:22,379
and wanted to get this
friend of his to sing
761
00:33:22,671 --> 00:33:23,923
and it was what it was,
762
00:33:24,215 --> 00:33:26,634
but it was never our initial intention.
763
00:33:26,926 --> 00:33:30,095
And I think not, it's
not what Bobby and Dave
764
00:33:30,387 --> 00:33:31,514
and I wanted to do.
765
00:33:31,805 --> 00:33:34,642
It just kind of, you know, cohesive riffs.
766
00:33:34,934 --> 00:33:35,684
We wanted to just kind of just be
767
00:33:35,976 --> 00:33:37,811
like this brutal mess of stuff.
768
00:33:38,103 --> 00:33:39,855
So the other person
that that was brought in
769
00:33:40,147 --> 00:33:41,023
is this guy Dave Warshaw,
770
00:33:41,315 --> 00:33:43,442
who was Dylan's friend at the time,
771
00:33:43,734 --> 00:33:44,860
and who was just gonna sing.
772
00:33:45,152 --> 00:33:47,655
He had some modular synths
773
00:33:47,947 --> 00:33:50,407
and wanted to kind of just play this Moog
774
00:33:50,699 --> 00:33:53,494
as like an interlude in
between some of the songs.
775
00:33:53,786 --> 00:33:54,828
And Bobby and I were like,
776
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,540
"Dude, you gotta play it all the time.
777
00:33:57,831 --> 00:34:00,125
Like it is the best
thing we've ever heard."
778
00:34:00,417 --> 00:34:05,130
And to go kind of go back to
mine and Bobby's childhood,
779
00:34:05,422 --> 00:34:07,424
we were really into stuff like Devo
780
00:34:09,218 --> 00:34:10,094
and like The Residents
781
00:34:10,386 --> 00:34:12,513
and things that were just
kind of weird and quirky.
782
00:34:12,805 --> 00:34:15,558
And the Moog to us was like that.
783
00:34:15,849 --> 00:34:17,142
And we're like, "Oh my
God, let's do this thing
784
00:34:17,434 --> 00:34:21,313
that's like brutal like Crossed
Out and weird like Devo."
785
00:34:22,398 --> 00:34:25,234
(punk rock music)
786
00:34:30,656 --> 00:34:31,991
You know, a few months went by,
787
00:34:32,283 --> 00:34:34,034
couldn't have been much time.
788
00:34:34,326 --> 00:34:36,203
Dylan and Dave decided
that they were gonna move
789
00:34:36,495 --> 00:34:41,292
and quit the band and Bobby and
I were just kind of psyched.
790
00:34:42,334 --> 00:34:43,335
We're gonna get a keyboard player
791
00:34:43,627 --> 00:34:46,005
and we're gonna do exactly
what we want to do.
792
00:34:46,297 --> 00:34:48,132
So we enlisted Jimmy Lavalle.
793
00:34:48,424 --> 00:34:50,467
I knew he was able to play keyboards
794
00:34:50,759 --> 00:34:54,471
and Bobby and I went to this pawn shop
795
00:34:54,763 --> 00:34:58,017
and found one of those
realistic Moogs that's,
796
00:34:58,309 --> 00:35:00,519
it was like 75 bucks or something,
797
00:35:00,811 --> 00:35:04,356
which was, you know, it
was totally an accident.
798
00:35:04,648 --> 00:35:07,776
If we wouldn't have ever had
Dylan introduce us to Dave
799
00:35:08,068 --> 00:35:09,445
as a second singer in the band,
800
00:35:09,737 --> 00:35:13,240
we never would've even thought
of having a synthesizer.
801
00:35:13,532 --> 00:35:14,950
- Oh, it was perfect.
802
00:35:15,242 --> 00:35:16,577
It was super brutal, you know.
803
00:35:16,869 --> 00:35:18,329
It was really fast and then it had
804
00:35:18,621 --> 00:35:20,831
this sci-fi sound to it, so I was,
805
00:35:21,123 --> 00:35:22,583
the first time I heard it, actually,
806
00:35:22,875 --> 00:35:24,710
Jimmy played it for me, I was like,
807
00:35:25,002 --> 00:35:26,086
"How am I gonna get in this band?
808
00:35:26,378 --> 00:35:27,880
How am I gonna play
this? I want to do this."
809
00:35:28,172 --> 00:35:29,798
You know, it was like the coolest shit.
810
00:35:30,090 --> 00:35:30,674
Because when I was a kid
811
00:35:30,966 --> 00:35:34,678
it was like I was really into
like brutal metal, right?
812
00:35:34,970 --> 00:35:38,098
And then I was into punk,
but the sloppiness of it,
813
00:35:38,390 --> 00:35:39,558
what kind of like turned me off
814
00:35:39,850 --> 00:35:41,769
because when I was learning to play drums,
815
00:35:42,061 --> 00:35:43,270
I was really into the proficiency
816
00:35:43,562 --> 00:35:46,482
of listening to extreme metal
music or whatever, right?
817
00:35:46,774 --> 00:35:49,860
And then to have the
next step be, fuckin',
818
00:35:50,152 --> 00:35:53,822
that brutal sound with fuckin'
weird keyboards over it?
819
00:35:54,114 --> 00:35:55,991
It was like that was the coolest shit.
820
00:35:56,283 --> 00:35:57,451
I don't think it could
get better than that,
821
00:35:57,743 --> 00:35:58,494
for me, personally.
822
00:35:58,786 --> 00:35:59,828
I started Cattle Decapitation
823
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,914
with the original drummer, Dave Astor.
824
00:36:02,206 --> 00:36:03,791
I was playing guitar in that band
825
00:36:04,083 --> 00:36:07,836
and we were just like
rehearsing one day and he said,
826
00:36:08,128 --> 00:36:09,129
he was like, "Hey, you
know, you should probably
827
00:36:09,421 --> 00:36:11,507
play a guitar in Locust, second guitar."
828
00:36:11,799 --> 00:36:13,509
And I was like, "Yeah, I totally should."
829
00:36:13,801 --> 00:36:15,177
And he talked to the dudes
and the next thing I knew,
830
00:36:15,469 --> 00:36:18,097
I was in the band and
then I was just going over
831
00:36:18,389 --> 00:36:19,932
to Bobby's house to learn
all the guitar parts.
832
00:36:20,224 --> 00:36:21,517
- Locust had come to
play and they were about
833
00:36:21,809 --> 00:36:23,894
to go on a European tour
and you could kind of sense
834
00:36:24,186 --> 00:36:26,438
that there was a bit of flux in the band.
835
00:36:26,730 --> 00:36:29,233
I think he knew at that point
that I was into synthesizers
836
00:36:29,525 --> 00:36:30,693
and noise and that sort of thing
837
00:36:30,984 --> 00:36:34,029
and he just kind of hit me up about it.
838
00:36:34,321 --> 00:36:35,864
I went to San Diego a couple times
839
00:36:36,156 --> 00:36:37,533
and Bobby showed me how to play the songs
840
00:36:37,825 --> 00:36:39,660
and I guess that was it.
841
00:36:39,952 --> 00:36:43,288
At the time we had the
original drummer, Dave Astor.
842
00:36:43,580 --> 00:36:45,791
It seemed like at some point his interests
843
00:36:46,083 --> 00:36:49,336
and our interests were starting to diverge
844
00:36:49,628 --> 00:36:51,046
and he was really
becoming a great drummer,
845
00:36:51,338 --> 00:36:54,258
but we were looking to explore more.
846
00:36:54,550 --> 00:36:56,301
I think he felt like things might not
847
00:36:56,593 --> 00:36:59,388
have been going his way and
decided to leave the band
848
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:01,724
and Gabe decided at one point he wanted
849
00:37:02,015 --> 00:37:05,018
to try and take over drum
duties and it just felt right
850
00:37:05,310 --> 00:37:07,980
and, you know, when he sort
of jumped on the drum kit,
851
00:37:08,272 --> 00:37:11,191
it really kind of broke
things wide open for us
852
00:37:11,483 --> 00:37:13,026
in a lot of ways.
853
00:37:13,318 --> 00:37:15,612
- Hi, I'm John Waters and now
you're gonna hear the music
854
00:37:15,904 --> 00:37:17,948
of the Locust, one of my favorite groups
855
00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:20,784
that I guarantee will make
your parents horrified
856
00:37:21,076 --> 00:37:22,703
if they hear it coming from your bedroom.
857
00:37:22,995 --> 00:37:26,790
Play it loud and they'll
call the psychiatrist.

- I just remember feeling like it was some
885
00:38:17,466 --> 00:38:18,717
of the most antisocial music
886
00:38:19,009 --> 00:38:20,511
that I've ever heard in my entire life.
887
00:38:20,803 --> 00:38:22,095
- If I had to describe the Locust,
888
00:38:22,387 --> 00:38:24,389
I'd probably just tell 'em
the titles of the songs
889
00:38:24,681 --> 00:38:28,060
are longer to say than the
actual songs themselves.
890
00:38:28,352 --> 00:38:30,562
- It was intriguing to
me because I felt like
891
00:38:30,854 --> 00:38:32,648
there were elements of the Locust
892
00:38:32,940 --> 00:38:35,984
that I could in my own head categorize.
893
00:38:36,276 --> 00:38:37,402
But then there was so much of it
894
00:38:37,694 --> 00:38:39,196
that I couldn't wrap my brain around.
895
00:38:39,488 --> 00:38:41,532
They were fusing a lot
of different influences
896
00:38:41,824 --> 00:38:42,825
in a very creative way
897
00:38:43,116 --> 00:38:45,035
and they were all very quite handsome.
898
00:38:46,578 --> 00:38:48,372
I liked their hair a lot.
899
00:38:50,874 --> 00:38:54,461
- Like how do you remember
small, compact bits
900
00:38:54,753 --> 00:38:57,256
with complex information in it?
901
00:38:57,548 --> 00:38:59,341
I always was absolutely
fascinated by that.
902
00:38:59,633 --> 00:39:00,175
And I still don't know,
903
00:39:00,467 --> 00:39:01,552
I still don't know how he figured it out.
904
00:39:01,844 --> 00:39:03,512
A thousand miles an hour seemingly,
905
00:39:03,804 --> 00:39:04,721
and all that information coming in through
906
00:39:05,013 --> 00:39:06,932
and it's all kind of,
it's blocked just so.
907
00:39:07,224 --> 00:39:08,892
I was absolutely fascinated by that.
908
00:39:09,184 --> 00:39:12,604
- I was captivated by the speed
and ferocity of that band.
909
00:39:14,314 --> 00:39:16,400
- I would love to know what drives
910
00:39:16,692 --> 00:39:18,986
other people towards this sound.
911
00:39:19,278 --> 00:39:22,322
For me, I kind of had like
this very bizarre upbringing
912
00:39:22,614 --> 00:39:25,200
and in my more formative years,
913
00:39:25,492 --> 00:39:28,161
I dealt with a lot of
anxiety and depression
914
00:39:28,453 --> 00:39:31,456
and my introduction to
this music was no wave.
915
00:39:31,748 --> 00:39:33,792
And there was just something
about the dissonance
916
00:39:34,084 --> 00:39:37,254
that they were creating that
made my brain feel so good
917
00:39:37,546 --> 00:39:39,756
that I had never experienced before.
918
00:39:42,175 --> 00:39:45,095
- Those types of things,
those left of center things,
919
00:39:45,387 --> 00:39:45,929
things that are perfect,
920
00:39:46,221 --> 00:39:47,264
but then there's just one ugly thing
921
00:39:47,556 --> 00:39:49,516
that's right in the middle of it.
922
00:39:49,808 --> 00:39:51,101
Those things are appealing to me.
923
00:39:51,393 --> 00:39:53,270
- Appeal? I have no idea, man.
924
00:39:53,562 --> 00:39:55,230
I mean, I've tried to sell
things before in stores.
925
00:39:55,522 --> 00:39:56,148
I was shitty at that
926
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:58,692
and I'm not trying to
sell music, you know?
927
00:39:58,984 --> 00:39:59,943
- We liked Slayer.
928
00:40:00,235 --> 00:40:02,154
Before that we loved Venom
'cause they were playing fast
929
00:40:02,446 --> 00:40:04,489
and really horrible sounding things.
930
00:40:04,781 --> 00:40:06,033
There's that, then what's the next thing?
931
00:40:06,325 --> 00:40:08,035
Well, there's weird psychedelic music
932
00:40:08,327 --> 00:40:10,078
with all sorts of freakouts on it.
933
00:40:10,370 --> 00:40:10,913
Feedback freakouts.
934
00:40:11,204 --> 00:40:13,457
Okay, well then there's free jazz.
935
00:40:13,749 --> 00:40:17,169
So there's like a continuum
of extremity that isn't,
936
00:40:18,337 --> 00:40:21,381
isn't defined by specific music
937
00:40:21,673 --> 00:40:23,634
as much as it is an aesthetic.
938
00:40:24,885 --> 00:40:26,803
(frenzied punk rock music)
939
00:40:27,095 --> 00:40:28,388
JP and the rest of the guys in Locust,
940
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:30,265
I think they get bored really easy
941
00:40:30,557 --> 00:40:31,808
and that's why they were all into things
942
00:40:32,100 --> 00:40:33,852
like synthesizers and
electronics and like,
943
00:40:34,144 --> 00:40:35,938
let's mix this stuff into this music
944
00:40:36,229 --> 00:40:37,689
that we've been playing
all this other time
945
00:40:37,981 --> 00:40:40,901
and that's another reason
why they just brought
946
00:40:41,193 --> 00:40:42,611
in their trip into it.
947
00:40:42,903 --> 00:40:44,112
Which is I guess what
you're supposed to do
948
00:40:44,404 --> 00:40:47,199
in order to maintain some
sort of aesthetic continuum
949
00:40:47,491 --> 00:40:48,909
of anything to survive.
950
00:40:49,201 --> 00:40:51,328
It has to mutate, and these guys were just
951
00:40:51,620 --> 00:40:55,207
heavy on the mutation tip a
lot faster than everybody else.
952
00:40:55,499 --> 00:40:58,126
(people shouting)
953
00:41:00,671 --> 00:41:03,048
- [Band Member 1] All right!
954
00:41:03,340 --> 00:41:04,967
- [Band Member 2] Fuckin'
A, dude. The war cry.
955
00:41:05,258 --> 00:41:05,801
(people laughing)
956
00:41:06,093 --> 00:41:09,763
- I'm at the Eiffel Tower.
957
00:41:10,055 --> 00:41:13,850
We went to tour in
Europe like pretty quick
958
00:41:14,142 --> 00:41:15,519
after we started the band.
959
00:41:15,811 --> 00:41:16,770
- [Gabe] Stop it, dude.
960
00:41:21,942 --> 00:41:23,443
- [Justin] Action right there.
961
00:41:23,735 --> 00:41:24,444
The action.
962
00:41:25,404 --> 00:41:28,365
(band members laughing)
963
00:41:28,657 --> 00:41:31,535
(people chattering)
964
00:41:32,536 --> 00:41:35,330
- [Band Member 1] Salt Shaker, huh?
965
00:41:35,622 --> 00:41:36,957
- [Band Member 2] I guess.
966
00:41:37,249 --> 00:41:39,876
(punk rock music)
967
00:41:41,211 --> 00:41:45,007
- We're stuck in traffic
and havin' a smoke.
968
00:41:50,220 --> 00:41:51,555
- One of the guys from Doom was there
969
00:41:51,847 --> 00:41:53,223
and we were pretty psyched.
970
00:41:53,515 --> 00:41:55,225
Like, wow, there's like
a legend, you know, here
971
00:41:55,517 --> 00:41:57,477
and he was heckling the
shit out of us, you know
972
00:41:57,769 --> 00:41:58,562
and making fun of us.
973
00:41:58,854 --> 00:42:00,397
Before we even started
playing he was like,
974
00:42:00,689 --> 00:42:03,859
"You guys look like mods and
you have a fuckin' keyboard,"
975
00:42:04,151 --> 00:42:06,111
and he was just laughing
at us and I was just like,
976
00:42:06,403 --> 00:42:09,823
"Give us a minute and then
you're gonna eat your words."
977
00:42:10,115 --> 00:42:13,493
(frenzied punk rock music)
978
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,793
♪ Fuck ♪
979
00:42:22,085 --> 00:42:23,336
- We played one song
and I remember his face
980
00:42:23,628 --> 00:42:25,088
just being like, "What the fuck?"
981
00:42:25,380 --> 00:42:25,922
You know?
982
00:42:26,214 --> 00:42:28,717
We would get a lot of criticism
983
00:42:29,009 --> 00:42:30,093
mainly for the way we looked.
984
00:42:30,385 --> 00:42:31,845
It wasn't even for the
music, but, you know,
985
00:42:32,137 --> 00:42:33,764
and occasionally for the music too,
986
00:42:34,056 --> 00:42:37,142
but it was usually because
we had certain haircuts
987
00:42:37,434 --> 00:42:38,643
or certain clothing.
988
00:42:40,353 --> 00:42:41,396
(heckler shouts indistinctly)
989
00:42:41,688 --> 00:42:42,647
Was it you that said that?
990
00:42:42,939 --> 00:42:44,649
- [Heckler 1] Yeah, it was me.
991
00:42:44,941 --> 00:42:46,860
- Why do you fuckin' say stupid shit?
992
00:42:47,152 --> 00:42:49,029
- [Heckler 1] Oh, because
I think you look stupid-
993
00:42:50,197 --> 00:42:52,824
- [Heckler 2] We like stupid music!
994
00:42:53,116 --> 00:42:55,786
- It sucks that you guys
paid to watch stupid music.
995
00:42:56,078 --> 00:43:00,707
- You know, the Spock
haircuts, the insect glasses.
996
00:43:00,999 --> 00:43:02,167
- You know, I remember
like looking at pictures
997
00:43:02,459 --> 00:43:04,836
of the Dead Kennedys or
the Dead Boys or Crime
998
00:43:05,128 --> 00:43:07,547
or whatever, any band, you know?
999
00:43:07,839 --> 00:43:11,301
And people looked weird
and that was the point.
1000
00:43:11,593 --> 00:43:13,762
- It was punk rock in
a sense of arrogance.
1001
00:43:14,054 --> 00:43:16,306
The whole concept of Kurt Cobain
1002
00:43:16,598 --> 00:43:18,100
and Seattle grunge being
like the antithesis,
1003
00:43:18,391 --> 00:43:19,434
we're the anti rock stars,
1004
00:43:19,726 --> 00:43:21,436
we look like we just got
done changing your oil
1005
00:43:21,728 --> 00:43:23,021
at the Mr. Goodwrench garage.
1006
00:43:23,313 --> 00:43:24,856
But like, here's the Locust.
1007
00:43:25,148 --> 00:43:27,776
We've got these suits and
all of this accoutrements,
1008
00:43:28,068 --> 00:43:29,611
as it were, and they're still the hardest,
1009
00:43:29,903 --> 00:43:32,614
most punkest, most in your face outfit.
1010
00:43:32,906 --> 00:43:35,951
Which probably fucked up a lot of people
1011
00:43:36,243 --> 00:43:38,578
who live and die by the
punk rock rule book.
1012
00:43:38,870 --> 00:43:40,580
You can't do this, you can't wear this,
1013
00:43:40,872 --> 00:43:41,623
you can't look like that.
1014
00:43:41,915 --> 00:43:43,875
Synthesizers in your hardcore
band? Are you kidding?
1015
00:43:44,167 --> 00:43:45,252
You know, back in the
late 90s or you know,
1016
00:43:45,544 --> 00:43:47,963
a lot of people were just kind of like...
1017
00:43:48,255 --> 00:43:50,048
- [Interviewer] All right,
can you just test it?
1018
00:43:50,340 --> 00:43:52,217
Like, so just talk like you're describing-
1019
00:43:52,509 --> 00:43:57,264
- Sure, these are my
silly outfits. (laughs)
1020
00:43:57,806 --> 00:44:00,475
And check, check one, check two.
1021
00:44:01,601 --> 00:44:02,519
(Justin clears throat)
1022
00:44:02,811 --> 00:44:04,604
There was this magazine
called "Hit it or Quit It,"
1023
00:44:04,896 --> 00:44:07,858
that was popular at some point
1024
00:44:08,150 --> 00:44:09,609
and they kept criticize,
well a lot of people
1025
00:44:09,901 --> 00:44:11,153
criticized the Locust, the way we looked,
1026
00:44:11,444 --> 00:44:13,405
and what we dressed with regular clothes,
1027
00:44:13,697 --> 00:44:15,657
sort very similar to how I'm dressed now.
1028
00:44:15,949 --> 00:44:17,534
But they were talking about
like our fashion sense
1029
00:44:17,826 --> 00:44:21,746
and I think as a a joke, we thought,
1030
00:44:22,038 --> 00:44:24,207
you know, we should try to
wear some kind of uniform.
1031
00:44:24,499 --> 00:44:26,042
And so we were in San Francisco,
1032
00:44:26,334 --> 00:44:29,087
we were about to go to Japan
for I think our first time,
1033
00:44:29,379 --> 00:44:33,133
our second time, and we
went to this thrift store
1034
00:44:33,425 --> 00:44:36,428
and they had four of these vests.
1035
00:44:37,679 --> 00:44:40,932
But, I mean, it's sort of
like campy sci-fi looking
1036
00:44:41,224 --> 00:44:42,517
and we thought like,
yeah, that'll be cool.
1037
00:44:42,809 --> 00:44:45,437
We didn't really take
ourselves very serious clearly.
1038
00:44:46,855 --> 00:44:48,190
So we did it and it seemed like a success.
1039
00:44:48,481 --> 00:44:49,774
We went to Japan and people were psyched
1040
00:44:50,066 --> 00:44:51,026
on the way we looked.
1041
00:44:52,194 --> 00:44:54,946
(punk rock music)
1042
00:45:09,669 --> 00:45:13,256
(punk rock music continues)
1043
00:45:24,851 --> 00:45:28,521
(punk rock music continues)
1044
00:45:38,740 --> 00:45:41,117
- It's dripping off his fuckin' chin.
1045
00:45:41,409 --> 00:45:42,619
I successfully spat back.
1046
00:45:44,454 --> 00:45:45,497
Who wants their pants?
1047
00:45:46,831 --> 00:45:48,333
Oh, and their whatever.
1048
00:45:48,625 --> 00:45:51,586
Oh man, they got on fuckin' spit.
1049
00:45:51,878 --> 00:45:53,004
- [Camera Person] His own spit.
1050
00:45:53,296 --> 00:45:54,422
Pants and his spit.
1051
00:45:54,714 --> 00:45:56,174
- We're like, all right, well
we're gonna do another tour,
1052
00:45:56,466 --> 00:45:57,592
let's make another uniform.
1053
00:45:57,884 --> 00:46:00,262
So we bought these, some
sort of crossing guard
1054
00:46:00,553 --> 00:46:04,266
type of outfits and we just
sewed on these reflective pieces
1055
00:46:04,557 --> 00:46:07,435
and we had our logo, you know, sewn on.
1056
00:46:07,727 --> 00:46:09,145
We've got welders glasses,
1057
00:46:09,437 --> 00:46:11,898
which I think are pretty gross now.
1058
00:46:12,190 --> 00:46:14,109
And of course they came, you know,
1059
00:46:14,401 --> 00:46:17,696
fully equipped with like these hot pants.
1060
00:46:18,697 --> 00:46:21,449
(punk rock music)
1061
00:46:29,499 --> 00:46:31,418
The thing that I think was, like,
1062
00:46:31,710 --> 00:46:34,462
sort of pushing us into this direction
1063
00:46:34,754 --> 00:46:36,047
of wearing a uniform was we were on tour
1064
00:46:36,339 --> 00:46:39,467
with hardcore bands that were pretty macho
1065
00:46:39,759 --> 00:46:41,845
and masculine and like really, you know,
1066
00:46:42,137 --> 00:46:45,432
didn't have necessarily the sense of humor
1067
00:46:45,724 --> 00:46:47,017
that we think that people should.
1068
00:46:47,309 --> 00:46:50,020
I mean, yeah, we're politically minded
1069
00:46:50,312 --> 00:46:52,439
and we're socially conscious
and we have all these,
1070
00:46:52,731 --> 00:46:54,691
you know, ideas, but at the same time,
1071
00:46:54,983 --> 00:46:55,984
like if you take yourself seriously,
1072
00:46:56,276 --> 00:46:59,487
you just kind of come off as
an asshole, in my opinion.
1073
00:46:59,779 --> 00:47:04,326
(audience members shouting indistinctly)
1074
00:47:10,623 --> 00:47:11,875
- Who got a mic?
1075
00:47:12,167 --> 00:47:14,544
- [Audience Member 1] Fuck you!
1076
00:47:16,796 --> 00:47:19,090
- [Audience Member 2] Get
the fuck off the stage!
1077
00:47:19,382 --> 00:47:21,926
(people laughing)
1078
00:47:22,218 --> 00:47:22,761
- [Band Member] All
right, come on, let's go.
1079
00:47:23,053 --> 00:47:23,595
- And it was crazy, too,
1080
00:47:23,887 --> 00:47:24,888
because I remember wearing that uniform
1081
00:47:25,180 --> 00:47:26,431
and getting in fights with people.
1082
00:47:26,723 --> 00:47:30,060
I broke a dude's nose with my
head while we were playing.
1083
00:47:30,352 --> 00:47:31,644
And it's like, it wasn't like,
1084
00:47:32,562 --> 00:47:36,191
there was still, you
know, I guess, you know,
1085
00:47:36,483 --> 00:47:38,985
masculinity at these shows and it wasn't
1086
00:47:39,277 --> 00:47:39,903
that we were like into fighting
1087
00:47:40,195 --> 00:47:41,863
but people were trying to fight us.
1088
00:47:42,155 --> 00:47:43,365
- Video camera?
- Yeah.
1089
00:47:43,656 --> 00:47:44,199
- [Camera Person] How do you feel, man?
1090
00:47:44,491 --> 00:47:45,658
You gonna be all right?
1091
00:47:45,950 --> 00:47:47,369
- I feel good, man.
- Can you see okay?
1092
00:47:47,660 --> 00:47:48,995
- I took this one for the Locust, man.
1093
00:47:49,287 --> 00:47:50,163
You know?
- It looks sexy.
1094
00:47:51,331 --> 00:47:53,333
- This kid came up to me and
said that the Locust fans
1095
00:47:53,625 --> 00:47:54,751
were trying to beat him up,
1096
00:47:55,710 --> 00:48:00,256
so I said, well, you
know, that's fucked up.
1097
00:48:01,883 --> 00:48:03,176
I'm gonna take one in
the eye for the Locusts.
1098
00:48:03,468 --> 00:48:04,386
- [Camera Person] Thanks man. Fuck.
1099
00:48:04,677 --> 00:48:06,638
- Show you that we can all be tough guys.
1100
00:48:06,930 --> 00:48:07,472
- [Camera Person]
Something's gonna come out
1101
00:48:07,764 --> 00:48:10,016
of there, I think.
- An alien, probably.
1102
00:48:10,308 --> 00:48:11,226
- Just shut the fuck up.
- All right.
1103
00:48:11,518 --> 00:48:13,061
- I'm sick of hearing you, man.
1104
00:48:14,521 --> 00:48:15,313
It's none of your business, man.
1105
00:48:15,605 --> 00:48:16,940
It's some personal shit.
1106
00:48:17,232 --> 00:48:20,360
- [Audience Member] Nice leggings!
1107
00:48:20,652 --> 00:48:21,945
Oh my fucking god.
1108
00:48:26,074 --> 00:48:29,077
Nice pants, man.
- Nice gorilla pants.
1109
00:48:31,204 --> 00:48:32,288
Gorilla pants.
1110
00:48:35,917 --> 00:48:36,584
- [Audience Member] It's beer.
1111
00:48:36,876 --> 00:48:37,419
- Hey, kick it.
1112
00:48:37,710 --> 00:48:40,046
I don't want a beer on
me. Shut the fuck up.
1113
00:48:40,338 --> 00:48:41,214
Give me a beer, I'll pour it out on you.
1114
00:48:41,506 --> 00:48:42,465
Would you fuckin' like me to do with that?
1115
00:48:42,757 --> 00:48:43,425
- [Audience Member] I had
nothin' to do with it.
1116
00:48:43,716 --> 00:48:45,552
- All right, then chill. That girl sucks.
1117
00:48:45,844 --> 00:48:47,095
I don't wanna wear a fuckin' beer.
1118
00:48:48,430 --> 00:48:49,764
Shut the fuck up!
1119
00:48:52,100 --> 00:48:53,726
Listen, if I poured a beer on you,
1120
00:48:54,018 --> 00:48:55,103
would you fuckin' like it?
1121
00:48:55,395 --> 00:48:56,688
No? So shut the fuck up.
1122
00:48:58,064 --> 00:48:59,232
In one sense it was really good
1123
00:48:59,524 --> 00:49:01,693
because we were known,
1124
00:49:01,985 --> 00:49:03,778
but in another sense it
was like we were showing up
1125
00:49:04,070 --> 00:49:08,199
and getting beaten up, maced,
getting our tires slashed.
1126
00:49:08,491 --> 00:49:11,953
- We've gotten in a lot of
fights together. (laughs)
1127
00:49:12,245 --> 00:49:14,330
Yeah, we have a special connection
1128
00:49:14,622 --> 00:49:18,835
because of the random acts of violence
1129
00:49:19,127 --> 00:49:20,587
that were inflicted on us.
1130
00:49:20,879 --> 00:49:21,671
- [Justin] But it all kind of tied
1131
00:49:21,963 --> 00:49:24,716
into this whole, you
know, antagonistic, like,
1132
00:49:26,134 --> 00:49:28,386
middle finger to music
1133
00:49:28,678 --> 00:49:31,389
or to music culture or
something, you know?
1134
00:49:31,681 --> 00:49:33,850
- Tough guy hardcore, for
all intents and purposes,
1135
00:49:34,142 --> 00:49:35,977
you listen to that and
like, okay, yeah, whatever.
1136
00:49:36,269 --> 00:49:37,479
You got your Cookie Monster vocal,
1137
00:49:37,770 --> 00:49:39,397
you're on the downstroke, God bless you.
1138
00:49:39,689 --> 00:49:41,566
But you listen to a Locust
record and it's just incredible.
1139
00:49:41,858 --> 00:49:44,527
It's incredibly foreign
and weirder than hell
1140
00:49:44,819 --> 00:49:46,988
and shocking to a lot
of people who will say,
1141
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:47,822
"That's not hardcore."
1142
00:49:48,114 --> 00:49:50,283
I'm like, bullshit, they're
playing faster than you.
1143
00:49:53,161 --> 00:49:54,329
(people laughing)
1144
00:49:54,621 --> 00:49:55,497
- [Band Member 1] Boo.
1145
00:50:00,168 --> 00:50:01,044
- [Band Member 2] What's he gonna do?
1146
00:50:01,336 --> 00:50:04,631
- [Band Member 1] I
thought he just gotta do...
1147
00:50:04,923 --> 00:50:06,132
What is he doing?
1148
00:50:07,383 --> 00:50:10,637
(band members laughing)
1149
00:50:14,474 --> 00:50:16,142
- [Band Member 2] No,
dude. No, you're done.
1150
00:50:16,434 --> 00:50:18,228
They're in there, dude.
1151
00:50:21,564 --> 00:50:23,691
- [Band Member 1] That was fucked up.
1152
00:50:23,983 --> 00:50:25,860
(lighter clicking)
1153
00:50:26,152 --> 00:50:26,903
Just puts it out, dude.
1154
00:50:27,195 --> 00:50:28,446
Yeah, pull it back a little.
1155
00:50:28,738 --> 00:50:29,822
Pull it back a little bit.
1156
00:50:30,865 --> 00:50:32,951
(people chattering)
1157
00:50:33,243 --> 00:50:34,619
Does this get you laid, dude?
1158
00:50:35,620 --> 00:50:37,247
(people laughing)
1159
00:50:37,539 --> 00:50:40,250
(lighter clicking)
1160
00:50:42,919 --> 00:50:43,878
- [Band Member 2] The
shit will not catch fire.
1161
00:50:44,170 --> 00:50:45,713
- [Band Member 1] Are you
gonna get bored in 10 minutes?
1162
00:50:46,005 --> 00:50:47,632
- [Band Member 2] I'm gonna
get bored, I'm gonna get bored.
1163
00:50:47,924 --> 00:50:49,300
I wanna see actual fire happen.
1164
00:50:52,178 --> 00:50:55,265
- [Band Member 1] What the fuck, dude?
1165
00:50:57,934 --> 00:51:00,228
- [Band Member 2] His hair
will not catch fire, man.
1166
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:01,896
- [Band Member 1] Set his head on fire.
1167
00:51:02,188 --> 00:51:03,189
That smells so bad.
1168
00:51:03,481 --> 00:51:06,276
- [Band Member 2] it smells so bad.
1169
00:51:06,568 --> 00:51:08,027
- Well, Troy, it's one of the Locusts.
1170
00:51:08,319 --> 00:51:09,320
He's invaded my home and displaced me.
1171
00:51:09,612 --> 00:51:11,322
I'm calling my exterminator right now.
1172
00:51:12,407 --> 00:51:14,617
- [Justin] Hello, this is
this week's prerequisite.
1173
00:51:14,909 --> 00:51:16,578
It's the first Antioch Arrow LP
1174
00:51:16,869 --> 00:51:19,247
and it's for fans of anything creative
1175
00:51:19,539 --> 00:51:20,957
or remotely interesting.
1176
00:51:21,249 --> 00:51:23,251
- I mean, we were doing
what we wanted to do.
1177
00:51:23,543 --> 00:51:25,545
Like we weren't bound by anything.
1178
00:51:25,837 --> 00:51:28,214
- Seriously, dude.
- It's 10 of us.
1179
00:51:28,506 --> 00:51:30,091
(band member laughs)
1180
00:51:30,383 --> 00:51:32,885
- Doesn't fuckin' matter.
- We're the Locusts.
1181
00:51:33,177 --> 00:51:34,178
It doesn't matter.
1182
00:51:35,179 --> 00:51:37,932
(punk rock music)
1183
00:51:43,730 --> 00:51:45,898
- Our shows in the UK
with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs
1184
00:51:46,190 --> 00:51:49,485
were probably some of the
most interesting shows
1185
00:51:49,777 --> 00:51:50,987
that we've played as a band.
1186
00:51:53,990 --> 00:51:58,286
- [Karen] All right, go for
the, go for it, go for it.
1187
00:51:58,578 --> 00:51:59,203
(people exclaiming)
1188
00:51:59,495 --> 00:52:01,998
- The audiences there hated us.
1189
00:52:02,290 --> 00:52:03,541
You know, they were there
to see the Yeah Yeah Yeahs
1190
00:52:03,833 --> 00:52:05,835
and wanted nothing to do with us.
1191
00:52:07,462 --> 00:52:09,756
There was one in particular,
it was in Birmingham.
1192
00:52:10,048 --> 00:52:11,507
- You know, we've had
everything thrown at us
1193
00:52:11,799 --> 00:52:15,428
from like beer bottles
to stools, bar stools,
1194
00:52:15,720 --> 00:52:17,263
pints of full beer.
1195
00:52:17,555 --> 00:52:20,266
- Onslaught of things thrown
at us the entire time.
1196
00:52:20,558 --> 00:52:22,352
- And someone threw a pint
glass at my collarbone
1197
00:52:22,644 --> 00:52:23,269
and broke it.
1198
00:52:23,561 --> 00:52:25,188
- And it was just like fucked up.
1199
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:26,439
It was like raining beer.
1200
00:52:26,731 --> 00:52:30,109
And I had a computer that
I was running samples
1201
00:52:30,401 --> 00:52:31,486
in between the songs.
1202
00:52:31,778 --> 00:52:34,739
There was like little
atmospheric sounds going on
1203
00:52:35,031 --> 00:52:38,117
and a beer landed on my
computer and I fuckin' lost it
1204
00:52:38,409 --> 00:52:40,244
and I picked up the pint glass and just-.
1205
00:52:40,536 --> 00:52:43,581
- And stood up on his
drum seat and puked in it
1206
00:52:43,873 --> 00:52:44,999
and was gonna throw it in the crowd.
1207
00:52:45,291 --> 00:52:47,752
- But it was great cause I'm
holding this fuckin' pint glass
1208
00:52:48,044 --> 00:52:49,253
and there's, everyone in the front row
1209
00:52:49,545 --> 00:52:51,756
is just doing their best to get away.
1210
00:52:52,048 --> 00:52:53,675
- And it was just so crazy to watch.
1211
00:52:53,966 --> 00:52:54,592
- But they can't cause there's all
1212
00:52:54,884 --> 00:52:56,177
these people pushing forward.
1213
00:52:56,469 --> 00:52:57,345
- It was weird because I saw
1214
00:52:57,637 --> 00:52:58,846
all these younger people
in front and I'm like,
1215
00:52:59,138 --> 00:53:01,057
they're not the dudes that were throwing
1216
00:53:01,349 --> 00:53:02,475
the glasses, you know?
1217
00:53:02,767 --> 00:53:04,143
- There's no way to tell, right?
1218
00:53:04,435 --> 00:53:06,604
Yeah, so I just dumped it on my head.
1219
00:53:08,064 --> 00:53:12,276
I'd never felt power like
that before. (laughs)
1220
00:53:12,568 --> 00:53:14,445
- He had some like issue
or something for a while
1221
00:53:14,737 --> 00:53:17,824
where he just kept puking when he'd play.
1222
00:53:18,116 --> 00:53:20,535
I think I just drove up there
to see 'em or some shit.
1223
00:53:20,827 --> 00:53:22,036
I think it was the
Hollywood House of Blues.
1224
00:53:22,328 --> 00:53:24,580
- Which is one of those
venues where you're like,
1225
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,126
Locust shouldn't be playing this venue.
1226
00:53:28,418 --> 00:53:30,920
- I mean, I walked in at
the fuckin' perfect time.
1227
00:53:31,212 --> 00:53:32,714
I missed the Locust set,
1228
00:53:33,005 --> 00:53:36,217
but I walked in as it
was just like, you know,
1229
00:53:36,509 --> 00:53:38,052
"Thank you, good night," kind of thing.
1230
00:53:38,344 --> 00:53:39,721
Gabe stands up on his drums-
1231
00:53:40,012 --> 00:53:41,889
- And threw up all over his drums.
1232
00:53:42,181 --> 00:53:43,474
- Horked all over.
1233
00:53:43,766 --> 00:53:44,684
- Vomited through his mask
1234
00:53:44,976 --> 00:53:46,185
and then sat back down
and started blasting
1235
00:53:46,477 --> 00:53:47,687
and then it just like flew everywhere.
1236
00:53:47,979 --> 00:53:50,648
- Just completely puked everywhere
1237
00:53:50,940 --> 00:53:53,693
and there was every single
person in that venue,
1238
00:53:53,985 --> 00:53:56,571
and it was packed, I don't
know, 3000 people or some shit.
1239
00:53:56,863 --> 00:53:58,573
Every single person just went, "Yeah!"
1240
00:53:59,949 --> 00:54:02,869
(people chattering)
1241
00:54:10,418 --> 00:54:11,878
- [Justin] Hey, you got
any words to the camera?
1242
00:54:12,170 --> 00:54:13,880
- Oh, it feels so good.
1243
00:54:18,384 --> 00:54:19,135
Oh, fuck.
1244
00:54:22,346 --> 00:54:23,389
- [Justin] Give me a kiss.
1245
00:54:23,681 --> 00:54:24,223
(Gabe chuckles)
1246
00:54:24,515 --> 00:54:25,224
- When I was in high school
1247
00:54:25,516 --> 00:54:28,269
I remember this kid would run
the mile and when he was done,
1248
00:54:28,561 --> 00:54:30,313
he would just start
fucking puking everywhere
1249
00:54:30,605 --> 00:54:31,731
and I think it was
something similar to that.
1250
00:54:32,023 --> 00:54:34,817
It's just like, I'd be
pushing it really hard.
1251
00:54:35,109 --> 00:54:36,736
I'm a little dude vegetarian and I don't,
1252
00:54:37,028 --> 00:54:39,697
I never really knew how
to take care of myself.
1253
00:54:39,989 --> 00:54:42,700
I smoked and I drank all the time as well.
1254
00:54:42,992 --> 00:54:44,160
- [Manager] We have to load out the stuff
1255
00:54:44,452 --> 00:54:45,953
because the venues gonna be
filled like in 10 minutes.
1256
00:54:46,245 --> 00:54:47,038
- All right.
- All right.
1257
00:54:47,330 --> 00:54:49,707
- [Manager] Thank you so much.
1258
00:54:49,999 --> 00:54:51,542
- Chug, chug, chug, chug.
1259
00:54:51,834 --> 00:54:52,752
Chug, chug, chug, chug.
1260
00:54:53,044 --> 00:54:54,670
Chug, chug, chug, chug.
1261
00:54:54,962 --> 00:54:55,588
Yay!
1262
00:54:58,424 --> 00:55:01,677
(wind whooshing)
1263
00:55:01,969 --> 00:55:06,766
(Gabe pukes)
(camera person laughs)
1264
00:55:07,975 --> 00:55:12,897
(Gabe pukes)
(wind whooshing)
1265
00:55:21,113 --> 00:55:22,949
- [Camera Person] I can't.
1266
00:55:23,241 --> 00:55:24,659
- Grand finale.
1267
00:55:24,951 --> 00:55:26,244
(camera person laughs)
1268
00:55:26,536 --> 00:55:31,332
(Gabe pukes)
(wind whooshing)
1269
00:55:36,504 --> 00:55:38,965
So I wasn't really taking care of myself,
1270
00:55:39,257 --> 00:55:41,467
that probably had a lot to
do with it, but I don't know,
1271
00:55:41,759 --> 00:55:44,178
just fuckin' playing as hard and fast
1272
00:55:44,470 --> 00:55:48,015
for those, even the like
little short bursts,
1273
00:55:48,307 --> 00:55:50,268
would just wear me out
and like, I would overheat
1274
00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:52,562
and just start puking everywhere.
1275
00:55:52,854 --> 00:55:56,232
(hardcore punk rock music)
1276
00:56:02,321 --> 00:56:05,241
(audience cheering)
1277
00:56:09,078 --> 00:56:11,497
(Gabe puking)
1278
00:56:15,543 --> 00:56:18,796
(audience cheering)
1279
00:56:19,088 --> 00:56:21,465
- [Justin] Thank you very much.
1280
00:56:23,426 --> 00:56:24,468
You can talk all the shit you want
1281
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:25,887
and say all the horse shit comments,
1282
00:56:26,178 --> 00:56:29,140
but your fuckin' friend's
bands and your bands,
1283
00:56:29,432 --> 00:56:32,351
and all them, they don't
fuckin' throw up on assholes.
1284
00:56:32,643 --> 00:56:35,521
(audience cheering)
1285
00:56:36,606 --> 00:56:38,274
- But I got quite good at it.
1286
00:56:38,566 --> 00:56:39,984
I could like miss the drums.
1287
00:56:40,276 --> 00:56:41,986
The first few times I did
it, it would get on the drums
1288
00:56:42,278 --> 00:56:42,904
and then I'd hit the drums
1289
00:56:43,195 --> 00:56:44,447
and then it would just
be flying everywhere.
1290
00:56:44,739 --> 00:56:46,991
It was a fucking mess for everyone,
1291
00:56:48,534 --> 00:56:49,535
but I got better at it
1292
00:56:49,827 --> 00:56:50,995
and eventually I could
just have like a bucket
1293
00:56:51,287 --> 00:56:54,373
if I needed to puke and I could
do it without missing beats.
1294
00:56:54,665 --> 00:56:55,541
It was pretty sweet.
1295
00:56:55,833 --> 00:56:58,628
But it usually would happen
when the song would end. Ugh.
1296
00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:01,380
And then it'd be, "Oh
fuck," and just everywhere.
1297
00:57:02,340 --> 00:57:06,052
(audience members chattering)
1298
00:57:10,681 --> 00:57:12,475
(audience cheering)
1299
00:57:12,767 --> 00:57:13,309
- [Justin] This next song is called,
1300
00:57:13,601 --> 00:57:16,562
"Anything Jesus Does, I Can Do Better."
1301
00:57:16,854 --> 00:57:19,649
(audience cheering)
1302
00:57:20,775 --> 00:57:24,278
(frenzied punk rock music)
1303
00:57:41,212 --> 00:57:45,549
(frenzied punk rock music continues)
1304
00:58:01,357 --> 00:58:05,695
(frenzied punk rock music continues)
1305
00:58:26,674 --> 00:58:31,012
(frenzied punk rock music continues)
1306
00:58:34,515 --> 00:58:38,144
(audience cheering)
1307
00:58:38,436 --> 00:58:39,729
- [Gabe] I'm done.
1308
00:58:40,021 --> 00:58:43,065
(Gabe puking)
1309
00:58:43,357 --> 00:58:44,275
- [Justin] I think we're done.
1310
00:58:44,567 --> 00:58:46,736
(audience cheering)
1311
00:58:47,028 --> 00:58:48,529
- Hey, welcome to the show.
1312
00:58:48,821 --> 00:58:49,363
Welcome to the show.
1313
00:58:49,655 --> 00:58:51,198
Guests are here confessing to their lovers
1314
00:58:51,490 --> 00:58:54,076
that they have been
hiding secrets from them.
1315
00:58:54,368 --> 00:58:56,579
(audience exclaiming)
1316
00:58:56,871 --> 00:58:58,080
You know how we feel about that.
1317
00:58:58,372 --> 00:59:01,250
- Scott Beibin was in
San Diego for something.
1318
00:59:01,542 --> 00:59:02,960
He'd run a record label, Bloodlink,
1319
00:59:03,252 --> 00:59:05,921
and put out the "Struggle/Undertow" split.
1320
00:59:06,213 --> 00:59:08,924
We were sitting in our
living room and he said,
1321
00:59:09,216 --> 00:59:09,800
Jerry Springer was on,
1322
00:59:10,092 --> 00:59:11,719
he said, "Let's call and,
and and be on the show."
1323
00:59:12,011 --> 00:59:13,137
And we're like, "Okay."
1324
00:59:13,429 --> 00:59:16,265
And so he called and left a message.
1325
00:59:17,266 --> 00:59:20,269
On the spot, made up a story
based on the four people
1326
00:59:20,561 --> 00:59:22,229
that were in the house and that was it.
1327
00:59:22,521 --> 00:59:25,107
Four in the morning I get
this phone call and he's like,
1328
00:59:26,692 --> 00:59:28,861
"JP, you gotta, wake up,
you gotta," you know,
1329
00:59:29,153 --> 00:59:29,862
and he's like freaking out.
1330
00:59:30,154 --> 00:59:31,363
I'm like, "What? What happened?"
1331
00:59:31,655 --> 00:59:33,074
And he's like, "Jerry
Springer, they're gonna call."
1332
00:59:33,365 --> 00:59:34,033
And I was like, "What?"
1333
00:59:34,325 --> 00:59:36,410
And he like, as soon as he said that,
1334
00:59:36,702 --> 00:59:38,204
the other line beeped
and I was like, "Oh fuck,
1335
00:59:38,496 --> 00:59:39,038
I got another call."
1336
00:59:39,330 --> 00:59:39,872
And he goes, "It's them."
1337
00:59:40,164 --> 00:59:41,749
And I felt like I was in
trouble and I was like,
1338
00:59:42,041 --> 00:59:44,460
"Okay, what am I supposed to say?"
1339
00:59:44,752 --> 00:59:45,878
He said, "Do you remember
the story that I said?"
1340
00:59:46,170 --> 00:59:47,797
And I was like, "No."
1341
00:59:48,089 --> 00:59:51,092
He's like, "All right, just
answer the other line."
1342
00:59:51,383 --> 00:59:51,926
So I answered it and I was like,
1343
00:59:52,218 --> 00:59:54,220
"Hey, you're gonna have
to let me call you back.
1344
00:59:54,512 --> 00:59:55,054
I need to wake up."
1345
00:59:55,346 --> 00:59:57,973
And so I clicked back over,
got the story with Scott,
1346
00:59:58,265 --> 01:00:00,226
woke up, got outta bed, made the call
1347
01:00:01,185 --> 01:00:03,896
and the next day I was
on a flight to Chicago
1348
01:00:04,188 --> 01:00:07,358
with my two roommates who
were also a part of the story.
1349
01:00:07,650 --> 01:00:09,902
And we did it and went to the show
1350
01:00:10,194 --> 01:00:14,198
not knowing that it was gonna be anything.
1351
01:00:15,658 --> 01:00:17,243
- Now please meet Justin.
1352
01:00:17,535 --> 01:00:20,412
Justin says he needs to tell
his girlfriend that he's-
1353
01:00:20,704 --> 01:00:21,956
(audience cheering)
1354
01:00:22,248 --> 01:00:24,416
That he has been sleeping
with her roommate-
1355
01:00:24,708 --> 01:00:25,876
(audience exclaims)
1356
01:00:26,168 --> 01:00:27,378
And a mutual friend.
1357
01:00:27,670 --> 01:00:29,338
Justin, what's going on?
1358
01:00:29,630 --> 01:00:31,298
- Well, you know, I'm into rock and roll
1359
01:00:31,590 --> 01:00:32,800
and I live the rock and roll lifestyle
1360
01:00:33,092 --> 01:00:34,885
and stuff happens, you know, and-
1361
01:00:35,177 --> 01:00:37,346
(audience members cheering)
(audience members booing)
1362
01:00:37,638 --> 01:00:40,266
And we all met up at a
hotel and discussed, like,
1363
01:00:40,558 --> 01:00:41,433
this is who slept with who
1364
01:00:41,725 --> 01:00:43,185
and this is who is breaking up with who
1365
01:00:43,477 --> 01:00:45,354
and how this whole like relationship,
1366
01:00:45,646 --> 01:00:49,233
four-way thing happened
and no punches to the face,
1367
01:00:49,525 --> 01:00:50,776
no matter what.
1368
01:00:51,068 --> 01:00:51,986
- You live with your girlfriend?
1369
01:00:52,278 --> 01:00:52,820
- [Justin] Yes.
1370
01:00:53,112 --> 01:00:53,821
- And you guys have a roommate?
1371
01:00:54,113 --> 01:00:54,697
- Yes.
1372
01:00:54,989 --> 01:00:57,449
- And she is the one you're sleeping with?
1373
01:00:57,741 --> 01:00:59,869
- Yes, one of the people
I'm sleeping with.
1374
01:01:00,161 --> 01:01:01,662
(audience exclaiming)
1375
01:01:01,954 --> 01:01:03,497
You know, I was really
afraid to break character
1376
01:01:03,789 --> 01:01:07,668
and so we go out on stage,
we're doing the performance.
1377
01:01:08,836 --> 01:01:11,547
- Yeah, and how is the relationship going?
1378
01:01:11,839 --> 01:01:12,423
- Up and down.
1379
01:01:12,715 --> 01:01:14,175
I mean, in the beginning it was wonderful.
1380
01:01:14,466 --> 01:01:15,759
We were gonna get married, have children.
1381
01:01:16,051 --> 01:01:18,637
I was gonna put his name in a heart and-
1382
01:01:18,929 --> 01:01:19,972
- [Jerry] Right in the-
1383
01:01:20,264 --> 01:01:24,894
- But if I'm here,
obviously it's not good.
1384
01:01:25,186 --> 01:01:27,646
(audience exclaiming)
1385
01:01:27,938 --> 01:01:29,565
(audience laughing)
1386
01:01:29,857 --> 01:01:31,025
(audience clapping)
1387
01:01:31,317 --> 01:01:31,942
- Moi?
1388
01:01:34,361 --> 01:01:35,696
- I love you.
1389
01:01:35,988 --> 01:01:38,282
I love you more than anything, Justin.
1390
01:01:38,574 --> 01:01:40,993
(audience awing)
1391
01:01:41,285 --> 01:01:41,911
- [Jerry] Go ahead, talk to her.
1392
01:01:42,203 --> 01:01:43,245
I mean, she seems like a lovely lady.
1393
01:01:43,537 --> 01:01:44,747
- Well, you understand, like,
1394
01:01:45,039 --> 01:01:46,540
I go away on tour for like a long time
1395
01:01:46,832 --> 01:01:48,083
and you're always pissed at me
1396
01:01:48,375 --> 01:01:51,462
and always mad about thinking
that I sleep with everyone
1397
01:01:51,754 --> 01:01:54,465
or whatever and like, I mean,
stuff happens, you know.
1398
01:01:54,757 --> 01:01:57,927
Like when we go on tour
and like things happen
1399
01:01:58,219 --> 01:02:01,055
and I haven't been faithful
and I've been seeing someone.
1400
01:02:02,389 --> 01:02:03,432
- Who the (bleep) is it?
(audience exclaiming)
1401
01:02:03,724 --> 01:02:04,475
Who is it?
1402
01:02:04,767 --> 01:02:06,060
Why?
1403
01:02:06,352 --> 01:02:07,853
Why the (bleep) would you
say you wanted to marry me
1404
01:02:08,145 --> 01:02:11,774
and have children with me?
(audience exclaiming)
1405
01:02:12,066 --> 01:02:13,734
- It was fucking crazy and scary and weird
1406
01:02:14,026 --> 01:02:16,695
and I had to try not to break character.
1407
01:02:17,738 --> 01:02:19,782
And of course Alisia punched
all of us in the face.
1408
01:02:20,074 --> 01:02:21,033
- [Alisia] How the (bleep)?
1409
01:02:21,325 --> 01:02:26,121
(hit thuds)
(audience cheering)
1410
01:02:27,873 --> 01:02:30,668
(audience continues cheering)
1411
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:32,962
- [Audience] Jerry, Jerry, Jerry.
1412
01:02:33,254 --> 01:02:34,713
Jerry, Jerry.
1413
01:02:35,005 --> 01:02:36,674
(audience cheering)
1414
01:02:36,966 --> 01:02:39,260
- I get punched in the face
and I thought, you know,
1415
01:02:39,551 --> 01:02:40,094
like when you get punched,
1416
01:02:40,386 --> 01:02:42,888
like snot and everything and
your eyes start watering,
1417
01:02:43,180 --> 01:02:43,889
I thought I was bleeding.
1418
01:02:44,181 --> 01:02:45,266
And so I, you know, I was like,
1419
01:02:45,557 --> 01:02:46,976
I blew my nose thinking it was blood.
1420
01:02:47,268 --> 01:02:49,311
- Okay, if you know
you guys are roommates,
1421
01:02:49,603 --> 01:02:51,146
you know that that's a boyfriend-
1422
01:02:51,438 --> 01:02:54,400
(audience exclaiming)
1423
01:02:55,734 --> 01:02:57,903
- And the crowd was, like, loving that.
1424
01:02:58,195 --> 01:03:00,072
- [Jerry] This is such a class operation.
1425
01:03:00,364 --> 01:03:01,907
- Part of it was a performance,
but part of it was, like,
1426
01:03:02,199 --> 01:03:03,325
dude, I just got fuckin'
punched in the face and, like,
1427
01:03:03,617 --> 01:03:04,910
what the fuck is everybody cheering for?
1428
01:03:05,202 --> 01:03:06,620
And like, you know, and
I'm like, kinda like,
1429
01:03:06,912 --> 01:03:08,289
I'm not an asshole, but
then I was thinking like,
1430
01:03:08,580 --> 01:03:09,373
oh, I am an asshole,
1431
01:03:09,665 --> 01:03:12,584
'cause I'm the douche
in the story, you know?
1432
01:03:14,378 --> 01:03:15,629
So when we got there, before we went on,
1433
01:03:15,921 --> 01:03:17,047
we had to sign all this paperwork
1434
01:03:17,339 --> 01:03:19,800
saying you can't lie and if you're lying,
1435
01:03:20,092 --> 01:03:23,053
you'll be fined, each one of
you will be fined $10,000,
1436
01:03:23,345 --> 01:03:24,555
which is a lot of money now
1437
01:03:24,847 --> 01:03:26,432
and definitely a lot of money then.
1438
01:03:26,724 --> 01:03:27,308
(audience cheering)
1439
01:03:27,599 --> 01:03:28,851
They go, "We're gonna
go to commercial break."
1440
01:03:29,143 --> 01:03:30,436
And so they bring me into the back
1441
01:03:30,728 --> 01:03:33,188
and this fuckin' little piece of shit
1442
01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:34,273
throws me up against the wall
1443
01:03:34,565 --> 01:03:35,774
and there's like the
two big security guards
1444
01:03:36,066 --> 01:03:37,609
and this guy's like yelling at me,
1445
01:03:37,901 --> 01:03:39,111
"You disrespected our house."
1446
01:03:39,403 --> 01:03:40,946
And I was like, "Dude, pretty
sure I've seen episodes
1447
01:03:41,238 --> 01:03:42,698
where there were like people pissing
1448
01:03:42,990 --> 01:03:44,992
and shitting on your floor and KKK members
1449
01:03:45,284 --> 01:03:46,577
throwing cake and shit like that.
1450
01:03:46,869 --> 01:03:48,162
Like, I don't think it matters."
1451
01:03:48,454 --> 01:03:49,246
And he was like, "Fuck you."
1452
01:03:49,538 --> 01:03:51,165
And I was like, "No, you
know what? Fuck you."
1453
01:03:51,457 --> 01:03:53,417
And I kind of pushed the guy
away and next thing I know,
1454
01:03:53,709 --> 01:03:55,210
I was just thrown on the ground
1455
01:03:55,502 --> 01:03:58,005
and dragged down this
hallway by these two men
1456
01:03:58,297 --> 01:04:00,341
that said that they were off-duty PD
1457
01:04:00,632 --> 01:04:02,176
and they're like, "You
waived your rights on that
1458
01:04:02,468 --> 01:04:04,178
when you signed that paperwork, man."
1459
01:04:04,470 --> 01:04:06,722
And I didn't really realize
what I had gotten into.
1460
01:04:07,014 --> 01:04:08,599
It was like mob mentality, you know?
1461
01:04:08,891 --> 01:04:09,975
These people were like,
no, you're gonna do
1462
01:04:10,267 --> 01:04:14,688
your fuckin' performance
and you're gonna do it well.
1463
01:04:14,980 --> 01:04:18,567
At that point it turned, like,
from being fun and whatever,
1464
01:04:18,859 --> 01:04:22,196
like our goal was like trying
to like instigate something.
1465
01:04:22,488 --> 01:04:23,614
It turned to just being like, fuck,
1466
01:04:23,906 --> 01:04:25,908
I just want to get out of this alive
1467
01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:28,243
and not have to be fined or go to jail
1468
01:04:28,535 --> 01:04:29,411
or beat up or whatever.
1469
01:04:29,703 --> 01:04:30,496
So I was like, all right, fine.
1470
01:04:30,788 --> 01:04:32,289
Like let's go do this show.
1471
01:04:33,290 --> 01:04:38,212
(upbeat jazz music)
(audience cheering)
1472
01:04:38,754 --> 01:04:39,421
- [Jerry] Is that true?
1473
01:04:39,713 --> 01:04:40,589
There's someone else you've
been sleeping with as well?
1474
01:04:40,881 --> 01:04:43,342
- Well sometimes (bleep)
happens, you know and-
1475
01:04:43,634 --> 01:04:46,261
(audience booing)
1476
01:04:50,099 --> 01:04:52,101
We go back out there and ham it up
1477
01:04:52,393 --> 01:04:56,063
and we're sort of fighting
and just doing the stupid,
1478
01:04:56,355 --> 01:04:58,148
all the stupid shit that we did.
1479
01:04:58,440 --> 01:04:58,982
- And there's someone else,
1480
01:04:59,274 --> 01:05:01,276
so let's bring out that someone else.
1481
01:05:01,568 --> 01:05:04,446
(audience cheering)
1482
01:05:12,746 --> 01:05:16,625
- A lot of the shit they
edited out was great.
1483
01:05:16,917 --> 01:05:18,377
I mean, there was a part where me
1484
01:05:18,669 --> 01:05:20,462
and this audience member,
like, ran at each other.
1485
01:05:20,754 --> 01:05:22,131
He was calling me a fag and I was like,
1486
01:05:22,423 --> 01:05:24,258
"I'm gonna show you fag. Come here!"
1487
01:05:24,550 --> 01:05:25,717
You know, and I knew the
guy could beat me up,
1488
01:05:26,009 --> 01:05:27,344
but I knew that they
wouldn't let us fight.
1489
01:05:27,636 --> 01:05:30,722
But I was like in the
audience ready to fight.
1490
01:05:31,014 --> 01:05:32,850
And then like one guy was asking about,
1491
01:05:33,934 --> 01:05:34,601
you know what God would think of all this
1492
01:05:34,893 --> 01:05:36,437
and I was like, "There's no God."
1493
01:05:36,728 --> 01:05:38,647
And the crowd just ate it up.
1494
01:05:38,939 --> 01:05:41,400
You know, as soon as the
show was over, it was,
1495
01:05:41,692 --> 01:05:42,609
they put us in a limo
1496
01:05:42,901 --> 01:05:45,612
and sent us all to the airport together.
1497
01:05:45,904 --> 01:05:46,572
The weird thing is, though,
1498
01:05:46,864 --> 01:05:47,656
as far as promotion is,
1499
01:05:47,948 --> 01:05:51,452
it went, like, it was huge on a level
1500
01:05:51,743 --> 01:05:52,744
that I never had experienced.
1501
01:05:53,036 --> 01:05:57,583
Because again, pre-internet,
the day after it aired,
1502
01:05:59,793 --> 01:06:01,753
people were on the
street fucking chanting,
1503
01:06:02,045 --> 01:06:05,424
"Jerry, Jerry," and I'm like, dude, whoa.
1504
01:06:06,341 --> 01:06:08,802
And it happened a lot and
it happened everywhere
1505
01:06:09,094 --> 01:06:11,680
and it happened at times,
like at fucking Kmart
1506
01:06:11,972 --> 01:06:15,517
and it happened in Tijuana,
it happened in Holland,
1507
01:06:15,809 --> 01:06:17,144
it happened in Japan.
1508
01:06:17,436 --> 01:06:19,688
It was like just the weirdest shit
1509
01:06:19,980 --> 01:06:22,274
and I didn't understand, for one,
1510
01:06:22,566 --> 01:06:24,568
like I was on TV making out with a dude,
1511
01:06:24,860 --> 01:06:27,029
and I would assume people
would be pretty bummed on that,
1512
01:06:27,321 --> 01:06:30,240
especially whatever year that was.
1513
01:06:31,533 --> 01:06:33,535
And people were just
psyched that it was, like,
1514
01:06:33,827 --> 01:06:34,995
"You were on that show."
1515
01:06:35,287 --> 01:06:36,747
- And like there's always different ways
1516
01:06:37,039 --> 01:06:40,417
of challenging patriarchy
and all of the different isms
1517
01:06:40,709 --> 01:06:43,587
that we live under and I feel like JP
1518
01:06:43,879 --> 01:06:46,298
has a way of doing it in
a really subversive way
1519
01:06:46,590 --> 01:06:49,301
where there's always a
sort of hidden transcript
1520
01:06:49,593 --> 01:06:51,762
and it's not so obvious all the time.
1521
01:06:52,054 --> 01:06:54,389
- But I mean, over the
years, I've embraced it.
1522
01:06:54,681 --> 01:06:55,933
And it was absurd, you know?
1523
01:06:56,225 --> 01:06:59,186
And so I think people
just like ran with it
1524
01:06:59,478 --> 01:07:01,605
and it became a thing,
for whatever reason,
1525
01:07:01,897 --> 01:07:04,274
that I still hear about every single day
1526
01:07:04,566 --> 01:07:06,443
on tour by someone, you know?
1527
01:07:08,487 --> 01:07:09,404
I don't know, the ring's cute.
1528
01:07:09,696 --> 01:07:12,741
- My wedding, my ring finger. (laughs)
1529
01:07:14,326 --> 01:07:15,160
But it's not that bad.
1530
01:07:15,452 --> 01:07:17,788
- [Friend 1] I don't think
it is, but it's just...
1531
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:18,622
- [Justin] Gabe, you want me to get you
1532
01:07:18,914 --> 01:07:19,456
some tea and crumpets?
1533
01:07:19,748 --> 01:07:20,541
(people laughing)
1534
01:07:20,832 --> 01:07:22,584
- Justin.
- Is it just him?
1535
01:07:22,876 --> 01:07:26,421
- [Gabe] Yeah, it's just,
that's just from the splatter.
1536
01:07:26,713 --> 01:07:28,090
- [Friend 2] Your nail's gnarly, dude.
1537
01:07:28,382 --> 01:07:28,924
- [Friend 1] Your snare drum looks
1538
01:07:29,216 --> 01:07:32,219
pretty fuckin' tough,
though, now. (laughs)
1539
01:07:33,845 --> 01:07:35,222
- [Gabe] See, it's just that flap.
1540
01:07:36,348 --> 01:07:37,391
- Flaps are bad.
1541
01:07:37,683 --> 01:07:40,394
So I started managing the Locust
1542
01:07:40,686 --> 01:07:43,605
and I saw them, I actually
remember exactly when it was.
1543
01:07:43,897 --> 01:07:45,190
I went to one of their shows
1544
01:07:46,149 --> 01:07:48,610
in San Jose or something South Bay.
1545
01:07:48,902 --> 01:07:50,988
I saw them loading out
1546
01:07:52,197 --> 01:07:54,533
and how long it took them to load out
1547
01:07:54,825 --> 01:07:56,368
and what they got paid
at the end of the night,
1548
01:07:56,660 --> 01:07:58,245
and I was like, "This is not right."
1549
01:07:59,413 --> 01:08:00,080
- [Audience Member 1] It's
probably taking longer
1550
01:08:00,372 --> 01:08:01,456
to set up than they're gonna play.
1551
01:08:01,748 --> 01:08:03,542
- [Audience Member 2] Yeah, I know.
1552
01:08:03,834 --> 01:08:05,544
It's gonna be awesome.
1553
01:08:05,836 --> 01:08:09,798
- "So if you want to talk
while you're on tour,
1554
01:08:10,090 --> 01:08:10,632
let me know."
1555
01:08:10,924 --> 01:08:13,051
When we started to sort of explore
1556
01:08:13,343 --> 01:08:15,012
what it would look like to, you know,
1557
01:08:15,304 --> 01:08:17,472
work with another record company,
1558
01:08:17,764 --> 01:08:20,225
have a little bit more resource
in terms of production,
1559
01:08:20,517 --> 01:08:23,353
you know, an advance to buy
a van and things like that,
1560
01:08:23,645 --> 01:08:26,857
that was, you know, I kind
of helped facilitate that.
1561
01:08:27,149 --> 01:08:27,899
- Well, let me backtrack a little bit
1562
01:08:28,191 --> 01:08:30,736
because, so all the Locust
stuff up until that point
1563
01:08:31,028 --> 01:08:33,739
was on GSL and GSL was
a lot like Three One G
1564
01:08:34,031 --> 01:08:35,198
at the time where we had no money.
1565
01:08:35,490 --> 01:08:37,826
You know, our full length
album was recorded for, like,
1566
01:08:38,118 --> 01:08:39,286
I don't know, like $1000 or something,
1567
01:08:39,578 --> 01:08:41,663
you know, which is not much money.
1568
01:08:41,955 --> 01:08:45,709
And we, you know, we had like
five days to record a record
1569
01:08:46,001 --> 01:08:47,919
and you know, so we were cutting corners
1570
01:08:48,211 --> 01:08:50,213
because the music was
very dense and we needed,
1571
01:08:50,505 --> 01:08:51,548
we really wanted to work with someone
1572
01:08:51,840 --> 01:08:54,593
that was like a producer
that could actually help us,
1573
01:08:54,885 --> 01:08:56,345
you know, not produce it musically,
1574
01:08:56,637 --> 01:08:58,597
but produce it sonically
because a lot of that shit
1575
01:08:58,889 --> 01:09:00,390
just turns into mush.
1576
01:09:00,682 --> 01:09:01,933
So we were, you know, we really wanted
1577
01:09:02,225 --> 01:09:04,061
to find a label that would have a budget
1578
01:09:04,353 --> 01:09:06,521
that we could really work with,
1579
01:09:06,813 --> 01:09:08,649
work in a good studio and
put out a great record.
1580
01:09:08,940 --> 01:09:12,402
- As punk rock started coming
up in New York and England,
1581
01:09:12,694 --> 01:09:15,530
there was this one very bizarre
group that I think that,
1582
01:09:15,822 --> 01:09:20,160
you know, that I was really
super into and that's Devo.
1583
01:09:20,452 --> 01:09:21,912
I secretly worshiped Devo.
1584
01:09:22,204 --> 01:09:23,497
We weren't allowed to say that
1585
01:09:23,789 --> 01:09:24,581
'cause in the LA hardcore scene,
1586
01:09:24,873 --> 01:09:26,708
Devo was like, you know,
they were new wave.
1587
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:29,628
You would pogo to Devo. It wasn't tough.
1588
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:30,754
I saw that in the Locust.
1589
01:09:31,046 --> 01:09:32,923
I honestly thought that they could,
1590
01:09:33,215 --> 01:09:36,426
that they were an embryonic
Devo in the making.
1591
01:09:36,718 --> 01:09:39,846
- Brett approaching us was
this strange validation
1592
01:09:40,138 --> 01:09:41,890
of everything we'd been
doing up to that point.
1593
01:09:42,182 --> 01:09:45,310
I have a lot of respect for
Brett Gurewitz as a person,
1594
01:09:45,602 --> 01:09:46,478
as a businessman.
1595
01:09:46,770 --> 01:09:49,481
- We liked Brett a lot and
I liked a lot of the people
1596
01:09:49,773 --> 01:09:50,607
that were associated with the label,
1597
01:09:50,899 --> 01:09:53,068
but it had this stigma
that was the antithesis
1598
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:54,319
of what we were about.
1599
01:09:54,611 --> 01:09:56,029
- But Epitaph, especially at that time,
1600
01:09:56,321 --> 01:09:59,616
was kind of known for
being a pop punk label.
1601
01:09:59,908 --> 01:10:02,285
It was like the Offspring
and NOFX. I hated that shit.
1602
01:10:02,577 --> 01:10:04,246
- We kept coming back to
Brett with these other ideas
1603
01:10:04,538 --> 01:10:07,207
and our, what I came down to was like,
1604
01:10:07,499 --> 01:10:08,583
we wanna be on Anti-.
1605
01:10:08,875 --> 01:10:11,837
- Well honestly, I wanted
to sign him to Epitaph,
1606
01:10:12,129 --> 01:10:13,755
but he was too cool to be on Epitaph.
1607
01:10:14,047 --> 01:10:14,589
He wanted to be on Anti-.
1608
01:10:14,881 --> 01:10:16,758
- In in the real world,
I mean Anti- and Epitaph
1609
01:10:17,050 --> 01:10:20,178
are the same label, but
it's not called Epitaph
1610
01:10:20,470 --> 01:10:24,307
and Anti-had Nick Cave and Tom Waits
1611
01:10:24,599 --> 01:10:27,686
and all these awesome artists
that we really did like,
1612
01:10:27,978 --> 01:10:30,313
where we, you know, did not like Rancid,
1613
01:10:30,605 --> 01:10:32,357
but what, for whatever reason,
he ended up agreeing to it
1614
01:10:32,649 --> 01:10:37,404
and we had the biggest budget
for "Plague Soundscapes"
1615
01:10:37,696 --> 01:10:40,282
that I think I've ever had in a band.
1616
01:10:40,574 --> 01:10:41,116
- In a lot of ways,
1617
01:10:41,408 --> 01:10:43,577
I sort of still feel like it's crazy
1618
01:10:43,869 --> 01:10:46,580
that we ever landed there,
that we never really fit in,
1619
01:10:46,872 --> 01:10:49,666
but it was also sort of
the most perfect place
1620
01:10:49,958 --> 01:10:50,709
for us to land.
1621
01:10:51,001 --> 01:10:52,544
- And it was great because
we were really confident
1622
01:10:52,836 --> 01:10:54,755
that we were gonna be able to record
1623
01:10:55,046 --> 01:10:57,132
the best thing we've ever done.
1624
01:10:57,424 --> 01:10:59,009
We were working with Alex Newport.
1625
01:10:59,301 --> 01:11:01,636
- [Joey] We could rely on
his ear to just let us know,
1626
01:11:01,928 --> 01:11:03,430
like, okay, we got what we needed.
1627
01:11:04,514 --> 01:11:07,934
(Justin squealing)
(band member laughing)
1628
01:11:08,226 --> 01:11:08,769
- We were so psyched,
1629
01:11:09,060 --> 01:11:11,021
but as soon as that
became public knowledge
1630
01:11:11,313 --> 01:11:13,607
that we were doing this record
on Anti-, which was Epitaph,
1631
01:11:13,899 --> 01:11:16,359
we got the, like, just
the criticism poured in.
1632
01:11:16,651 --> 01:11:18,445
Everyone was saying we
sold out and we suck
1633
01:11:18,737 --> 01:11:20,614
and we're gonna fuckin'
sound like pop-punk
1634
01:11:20,906 --> 01:11:21,907
and what do you want us to do?
1635
01:11:22,199 --> 01:11:25,410
Go back to being on GSL and
like just scrounging up money
1636
01:11:25,702 --> 01:11:28,246
to put out a mediocre recorded record?
1637
01:11:29,915 --> 01:11:32,834
When you have a $1000 recording budget,
1638
01:11:33,126 --> 01:11:35,837
you have X-amount of
hours and you're paying
1639
01:11:36,129 --> 01:11:38,548
for just some guy to
push record, you know,
1640
01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:39,883
and mic it and then push record.
1641
01:11:40,175 --> 01:11:42,844
But like with a producer
in a studio with two weeks,
1642
01:11:43,136 --> 01:11:45,555
you have the ability to do
takes until you get it right.
1643
01:11:45,847 --> 01:11:47,641
You have the ability to
have someone actually, like,
1644
01:11:47,933 --> 01:11:52,354
put time into making
each sound be cohesive.
1645
01:11:52,646 --> 01:11:54,523
Like make sure the high hat's there.
1646
01:11:54,815 --> 01:11:57,442
(frenzied percussion music)
1647
01:11:57,734 --> 01:11:59,236
Make sure the snare comes through
1648
01:11:59,528 --> 01:12:01,321
when the blast beats are happening.
1649
01:12:01,613 --> 01:12:04,574
(frenzied percussion music)
1650
01:12:04,866 --> 01:12:07,452
Make sure certain synth frequencies
1651
01:12:07,744 --> 01:12:10,413
aren't competing with
the guitar and the bass.
1652
01:12:10,705 --> 01:12:14,167
(electric bass music squealing)
1653
01:12:14,459 --> 01:12:16,211
Make sure you sing properly.
1654
01:12:17,754 --> 01:12:21,591
(singers singing indistinctly)
1655
01:12:43,572 --> 01:12:44,698
(camera person laughs)
1656
01:12:44,990 --> 01:12:46,783
- We were really able
to record it in a way
1657
01:12:47,075 --> 01:12:48,702
that we hadn't before and hear it in a way
1658
01:12:48,994 --> 01:12:49,870
that we hadn't before.
1659
01:12:50,161 --> 01:12:53,415
- It was 100% analog
and so that it was like,
1660
01:12:53,707 --> 01:12:55,166
I mean we had changed after that record
1661
01:12:55,458 --> 01:12:58,211
and embraced that concept
of digital recording.
1662
01:12:58,503 --> 01:12:59,713
But we were this, we were trying to be
1663
01:13:00,005 --> 01:13:01,673
like these analog purists.
1664
01:13:01,965 --> 01:13:03,550
So it was, that's another thing, too,
1665
01:13:03,842 --> 01:13:05,802
is that shit costs a
lot of money, you know?
1666
01:13:06,094 --> 01:13:07,554
Tape was expensive.
1667
01:13:07,846 --> 01:13:09,598
Two inch tape, you know, was just,
1668
01:13:09,890 --> 01:13:10,932
we went through a lot of it.
1669
01:13:11,224 --> 01:13:14,352
We were able to do it until
everybody did it perfect.
1670
01:13:14,644 --> 01:13:15,729
I think it's a flawless record
1671
01:13:16,021 --> 01:13:18,732
as far as our musicianship is concerned
1672
01:13:19,024 --> 01:13:20,525
and the way it is recorded.
1673
01:13:21,860 --> 01:13:23,737
I don't wanna say it's
like a perfect record
1674
01:13:24,029 --> 01:13:26,031
in the sense of like music or art.
1675
01:13:26,323 --> 01:13:27,532
It's just, I'm saying like, technically,
1676
01:13:27,824 --> 01:13:29,326
it's a flawless record.
1677
01:13:29,618 --> 01:13:31,703
That was the first time we
were able to experience that.
1678
01:13:31,995 --> 01:13:35,040
(hardcore punk music)
1679
01:13:43,423 --> 01:13:44,466
But the ironic thing is
1680
01:13:44,758 --> 01:13:46,426
as soon as "Plague Soundscapes" came out,
1681
01:13:46,718 --> 01:13:48,511
the Dillinger Escape plan did
the record with Mike Patton
1682
01:13:48,803 --> 01:13:52,307
and then Converge did it,
did a record with Epitaph,
1683
01:13:52,599 --> 01:13:54,517
and then Epitaph was like,
oh, all of our friends
1684
01:13:54,809 --> 01:13:55,936
are over here now and it's fine.
1685
01:13:56,227 --> 01:13:58,897
Like, I really doubt that
anyone criticized Converge
1686
01:13:59,189 --> 01:14:00,941
for signing to Epitaph proper.
1687
01:14:01,983 --> 01:14:03,985
- Well, I think, you know,
the records that they made
1688
01:14:04,277 --> 01:14:06,821
when we were working, so like
"Plague Soundscapes" was like,
1689
01:14:07,113 --> 01:14:10,450
you know, an amazing record
and working with them,
1690
01:14:10,742 --> 01:14:15,372
like hearing them find that
creativity was tremendous.
1691
01:14:15,664 --> 01:14:17,457
- When "Plague Soundscapes"
came out, it was like full on.
1692
01:14:17,749 --> 01:14:20,168
I mean, at one point we did
like a four month long tour
1693
01:14:20,460 --> 01:14:21,920
and it just kind of kept going.
1694
01:14:23,296 --> 01:14:26,800
(frenzied punk rock music)
1695
01:14:29,928 --> 01:14:32,847
(audience cheering)
1696
01:14:33,765 --> 01:14:37,268
- Seeing them play in London
with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs
1697
01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:41,272
and getting respect from their peers
1698
01:14:41,564 --> 01:14:46,361
beyond sort of underground
punk was also really wonderful.
1699
01:14:48,822 --> 01:14:51,908
- I mean, we toured with Rocking the Crypt
1700
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:53,827
or Andrew WK or whatever, you know,
1701
01:14:54,119 --> 01:14:55,996
just what whatever didn't seem right
1702
01:14:56,287 --> 01:14:59,207
was like also a reason to do it.
1703
01:15:00,333 --> 01:15:03,086
(punk rock music)
1704
01:15:11,553 --> 01:15:12,762
- Everything seemed the same,
1705
01:15:13,054 --> 01:15:15,348
just like at a larger scale.
1706
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:19,477
I mean, maybe when we played
like the bigger rooms,
1707
01:15:19,769 --> 01:15:21,312
you wouldn't have like, you know,
1708
01:15:21,604 --> 01:15:22,772
people shitting in the mosh pit
1709
01:15:23,064 --> 01:15:26,192
as much as you would at
smaller things we've done, but.
1710
01:15:26,484 --> 01:15:27,360
- [Interviewer] Is that
something that's happened?
1711
01:15:27,652 --> 01:15:28,486
- Yeah.
1712
01:15:28,778 --> 01:15:30,321
- [Interviewer] Do you
wanna tell that story?
1713
01:15:30,613 --> 01:15:32,115
- I just remember we
were playing some show
1714
01:15:32,407 --> 01:15:33,700
and someone shit in the pit
1715
01:15:33,992 --> 01:15:35,035
and then there was like some other guy
1716
01:15:35,326 --> 01:15:37,328
riding a bicycle in the pit
and then there was, like,
1717
01:15:37,620 --> 01:15:39,414
trash cans swirling around as well.
1718
01:15:39,706 --> 01:15:40,874
And then someone fainted
1719
01:15:41,166 --> 01:15:44,085
so we had to stop the show
to get that person out.
1720
01:15:44,377 --> 01:15:47,380
- And there was more critical, you know,
1721
01:15:47,672 --> 01:15:48,548
recognition of their work,
1722
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:53,178
which I think was important
to them and me, you know,
1723
01:15:53,470 --> 01:15:54,971
and their producers and the label
1724
01:15:55,263 --> 01:15:58,725
and people sort of recognizing
1725
01:15:59,017 --> 01:16:02,729
that they were a unique and special band.
1726
01:16:03,021 --> 01:16:05,523
- You know, we were growing
and still sort of dealing
1727
01:16:05,815 --> 01:16:08,818
with a lot of. like,
negativity from people.
1728
01:16:09,110 --> 01:16:11,654
So that was when we started adding more,
1729
01:16:11,946 --> 01:16:14,949
I guess linear pieces
and having interludes
1730
01:16:15,241 --> 01:16:17,952
and having these sort
of landscapes of sound
1731
01:16:18,244 --> 01:16:19,579
where it wasn't just so dense.
1732
01:16:20,789 --> 01:16:23,958
(dramatic synth music)
1733
01:16:34,302 --> 01:16:37,847
I think musically we started
evolving into something else.
1734
01:16:38,139 --> 01:16:40,683
So the next record we did was
"Safety Second, Body Last,"
1735
01:16:40,975 --> 01:16:45,772
which has these like very
large chunks of material
1736
01:16:46,523 --> 01:16:48,733
where there's space.
1737
01:16:49,025 --> 01:16:52,070
(dramatic synth music)
1738
01:17:03,873 --> 01:17:05,208
You know, we started focusing on things
1739
01:17:05,500 --> 01:17:09,879
like just dynamic and where
before it was just dense
1740
01:17:11,506 --> 01:17:13,216
and absurd all the way through.
1741
01:17:13,508 --> 01:17:17,262
And so we started kind of
like thinking about other ways
1742
01:17:17,554 --> 01:17:19,180
to write music and thinking
about other elements
1743
01:17:19,472 --> 01:17:20,932
that we kind of skipped out on.
1744
01:17:22,308 --> 01:17:25,478
(dramatic synth music)
1745
01:17:30,567 --> 01:17:34,070
(frenzied punk rock music)
1746
01:17:50,461 --> 01:17:51,796
A lot of it had to do with timing,
1747
01:17:52,088 --> 01:17:54,132
so before we had recorded it,
1748
01:17:54,424 --> 01:17:56,259
we had kind of linked up with Mike Patton
1749
01:17:56,551 --> 01:17:57,969
and touring with Fantomas.
1750
01:17:58,261 --> 01:17:59,679
You know, Fantomas seemed a lot
1751
01:17:59,971 --> 01:18:02,056
like what we were doing in the Locust.
1752
01:18:04,100 --> 01:18:07,187
(strange synth music)
1753
01:18:17,739 --> 01:18:20,408
It has these like, like,
spacious movements that happen.
1754
01:18:20,700 --> 01:18:22,243
From there we just kept kind of evolving
1755
01:18:22,535 --> 01:18:25,038
into figuring out ways
to write other stuff
1756
01:18:25,330 --> 01:18:27,665
that was still brutal and mid tempo
1757
01:18:27,957 --> 01:18:32,754
and kind of structurally
written in a more mature way
1758
01:18:33,838 --> 01:18:37,383
and not so, like, let's
throw out all these ideas
1759
01:18:37,675 --> 01:18:39,135
and just be like, blah, you know?
1760
01:18:39,427 --> 01:18:41,095
It's kinda like, let's
don't just regurgitate
1761
01:18:41,387 --> 01:18:41,930
the same thing.
1762
01:18:42,222 --> 01:18:45,099
Let's think it out, let's
have it be an evolution.
1763
01:18:46,059 --> 01:18:49,854
(strange dramatic synth music)
1764
01:18:53,107 --> 01:18:56,611
(frenzied punk rock music)
1765
01:19:21,511 --> 01:19:25,848
(frenzied punk rock music continues)
1766
01:19:47,578 --> 01:19:50,498
I had became friends with
this music supervisor
1767
01:19:50,790 --> 01:19:54,460
and she licensed some music for a movie
1768
01:19:54,752 --> 01:19:57,005
and her really good friend is Asia Argento
1769
01:19:57,297 --> 01:19:58,965
and so she called me out
of the blue and said,
1770
01:19:59,257 --> 01:20:02,093
"Hey, Asia wants you to be in this film.
1771
01:20:03,052 --> 01:20:04,220
She saw your Jerry Springer thing
1772
01:20:04,512 --> 01:20:06,973
and thinks that you'd be a good fit."
1773
01:20:07,265 --> 01:20:10,101
(child and Justin yelling)
1774
01:20:10,393 --> 01:20:11,519
- [Child] Fuck you people!
1775
01:20:11,811 --> 01:20:12,437
- I mean, I didn't know what it was.
1776
01:20:12,729 --> 01:20:15,356
I just said, yeah, to like a movie.
1777
01:20:15,648 --> 01:20:16,649
Like it could be anything, you know?
1778
01:20:16,941 --> 01:20:18,693
Like fuck, it could have
been any kind of movie
1779
01:20:18,985 --> 01:20:22,363
and it exceeded my expectations,
1780
01:20:22,655 --> 01:20:23,781
My own fuckin' age?
1781
01:20:25,241 --> 01:20:25,992
What the fuck?
1782
01:20:27,076 --> 01:20:29,954
(items clattering)
1783
01:20:35,418 --> 01:20:38,838
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. (sobbing)
1784
01:20:39,839 --> 01:20:41,799
I wanted to do more acting,
1785
01:20:42,091 --> 01:20:44,510
but I don't really know how to act
1786
01:20:44,802 --> 01:20:46,929
and I don't really know
how to get into a movie.
1787
01:20:47,221 --> 01:20:51,017
And then I ran into these
rad dudes from this band,
1788
01:20:51,309 --> 01:20:52,810
the Manx at a Head Wound City show
1789
01:20:53,102 --> 01:20:55,897
and they do "Uncle Grandpa" the cartoon
1790
01:20:56,189 --> 01:20:57,357
and they started "Rick and Morty."
1791
01:20:57,648 --> 01:20:58,191
You know, they're like,
1792
01:20:58,483 --> 01:20:59,359
"Hey, you wanna be in 'Uncle Grandpa?"'
1793
01:20:59,650 --> 01:21:00,193
And I was like, "Yeah."
1794
01:21:00,485 --> 01:21:04,655
And so then I was like
a free sample snack elf.
1795
01:21:04,947 --> 01:21:07,575
- Hello friends. Welcome
to Free Sample City.
1796
01:21:07,867 --> 01:21:08,868
We're the free sample elves.
1797
01:21:09,160 --> 01:21:11,204
We make free samples all day long.
1798
01:21:11,496 --> 01:21:12,830
Take a look.
1799
01:21:13,122 --> 01:21:16,209
Free samples of veggie
sausages, currently on sale.
1800
01:21:16,501 --> 01:21:18,669
Be sure to sample our pineapple salsa
1801
01:21:18,961 --> 01:21:20,338
with crispy dried kale,
1802
01:21:20,630 --> 01:21:23,925
vegan walnut cookie bites,
freshly baked in our tree.
1803
01:21:24,217 --> 01:21:26,886
Care for a sample? They're
free, free, friggidy free.
1804
01:21:28,721 --> 01:21:30,556
- You know, on "Uncle Grandpa,"
1805
01:21:30,848 --> 01:21:33,476
like giving out like
vegan snacks to these,
1806
01:21:33,768 --> 01:21:35,770
to the characters of the cartoon.
1807
01:21:36,062 --> 01:21:37,688
- Y'all are some sick freaks.
1808
01:21:37,980 --> 01:21:38,523
- It was awesome, you know?
1809
01:21:38,815 --> 01:21:41,234
And I got paid really
well and it was easy.
1810
01:21:41,526 --> 01:21:45,863
- Like I always say, don't be
a piggy at Free Sample City.
1811
01:21:46,155 --> 01:21:47,281
- It's again, it's like,
1812
01:21:47,573 --> 01:21:49,158
it just kind of fell into my lap
1813
01:21:49,450 --> 01:21:51,536
and I was able to do it
and I was open to do it,
1814
01:21:51,828 --> 01:21:52,912
'cause maybe someone else would be like,
1815
01:21:53,204 --> 01:21:55,331
"I don't want to be in a cartoon."
1816
01:21:55,623 --> 01:21:57,583
I'm like, yeah, I'll be
in a fuckin' cartoon.
1817
01:21:57,875 --> 01:22:00,128
I mean, I'll be in a pancake
commercial, you know,
1818
01:22:00,420 --> 01:22:01,838
if you ask me to or whatever.
1819
01:22:02,130 --> 01:22:03,047
- That'll teach you a lesson
1820
01:22:03,339 --> 01:22:05,633
for taking advantage of
us free sample elves.
1821
01:22:05,925 --> 01:22:09,011
Don't you know, we already hate ourselves.
1822
01:22:09,303 --> 01:22:11,973
- The time when I was doing
the Locust and Some Girls,
1823
01:22:12,265 --> 01:22:13,141
they were both full-time,
1824
01:22:13,433 --> 01:22:16,727
but it wasn't like full-time
in the sense that, like,
1825
01:22:17,019 --> 01:22:19,939
when your album comes out, you
have this insane tour cycle.
1826
01:22:20,231 --> 01:22:22,775
I mean, even now, like none
of the bands that I'm in
1827
01:22:23,067 --> 01:22:24,652
go by those sort of industry standards
1828
01:22:24,944 --> 01:22:25,528
where you put out a record
1829
01:22:25,820 --> 01:22:27,447
and you're touring for
nine months, you know?
1830
01:22:27,738 --> 01:22:29,740
It's sporadic and
there's a lot of downtime
1831
01:22:30,032 --> 01:22:31,451
to do other things.
1832
01:22:31,742 --> 01:22:33,286
I just think I need to be busy regardless.
1833
01:22:33,578 --> 01:22:34,662
You know, if I'm not writing a record
1834
01:22:34,954 --> 01:22:36,706
or recording a record or on tour,
1835
01:22:38,166 --> 01:22:39,250
I'll think about like
something I should do
1836
01:22:39,542 --> 01:22:41,836
with Three One G or I'll
start writing a story.
1837
01:22:42,128 --> 01:22:43,504
Hey, let's work on a
video project, you know?
1838
01:22:43,796 --> 01:22:46,424
Or let's start a podcast or
whatever. Like, something.
1839
01:22:46,716 --> 01:22:47,800
Let's do something.
1840
01:22:48,092 --> 01:22:49,510
- He is like a workaholic,
1841
01:22:49,802 --> 01:22:52,013
but sometimes I wish I
could just say, like,
1842
01:22:52,305 --> 01:22:53,347
just take a break, you know?
1843
01:22:53,639 --> 01:22:54,932
You're stressing yourself out.
1844
01:22:55,224 --> 01:22:57,226
I mean, I wouldn't want him
to do anything else, though,
1845
01:22:57,518 --> 01:23:00,563
because I know that that's him.
1846
01:23:00,855 --> 01:23:03,399
(punk rock music)
1847
01:23:03,691 --> 01:23:05,985
- [Joey] After we
finished our touring cycle
1848
01:23:06,277 --> 01:23:09,197
for "New Erections," we
definitely took a break.
1849
01:23:09,489 --> 01:23:10,865
- You know, I think at some point
1850
01:23:11,157 --> 01:23:14,577
we just kind of had to step
back from being an active band
1851
01:23:14,869 --> 01:23:16,579
for close to 20 years.
1852
01:23:16,871 --> 01:23:19,123
- In my mind it felt like
things were plateauing in a way
1853
01:23:19,415 --> 01:23:24,212
and it seemed like a
break made a lot of sense.
1854
01:23:24,504 --> 01:23:27,340
I mean, if for no other
reason than to keep things
1855
01:23:27,632 --> 01:23:28,799
from feeling stale.
1856
01:23:29,091 --> 01:23:32,595
- I mean, I think everybody
got busy with life, you know,
1857
01:23:32,887 --> 01:23:35,932
and busy in different ways and you know,
1858
01:23:36,224 --> 01:23:36,766
a lot of times I'll hear like,
1859
01:23:37,058 --> 01:23:37,975
oh, you're, you're doing all these things,
1860
01:23:38,267 --> 01:23:38,851
why don't you do the Locust?
1861
01:23:39,143 --> 01:23:40,603
And it's like, well, I'm not the Locust.
1862
01:23:40,895 --> 01:23:44,148
I'm one of the four people
and it's not my decision.
1863
01:23:44,440 --> 01:23:47,318
And if I was busy with the Locust,
1864
01:23:47,610 --> 01:23:50,571
I probably wouldn't have done
these other things, you know?
1865
01:23:50,863 --> 01:23:55,159
So it's, everybody does,
everybody has their own reasons,
1866
01:23:55,451 --> 01:23:57,912
you know, and at some point
we'll play again, just,
1867
01:23:58,204 --> 01:23:59,247
there's just no pressure.
1868
01:24:00,915 --> 01:24:04,085
(dramatic synth music)
1869
01:24:31,070 --> 01:24:34,574
(hardcore punk rock music)
1870
01:24:46,919 --> 01:24:50,548
- This last pass felt
really good. Vicious, fun.
1871
01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:53,259
It just felt like it was renewed.
1872
01:24:53,551 --> 01:24:54,969
The energy and excitement
1873
01:24:55,261 --> 01:24:58,347
and the stamina to do it
were renewed and back again.
1874
01:25:00,683 --> 01:25:04,186
(hardcore punk rock music)
1875
01:25:09,567 --> 01:25:10,860
- You never know how long people like this
1876
01:25:11,152 --> 01:25:12,528
will be around doing this for,
1877
01:25:12,820 --> 01:25:16,198
so I think you should
eat it up while you can.
1878

♪ No, no no adult education ♪
1879
01:25:20,995 --> 01:25:24,624
♪ Lubricating the driest generation ♪
1880

♪ Lacks all responsive stimulation ♪
1882
01:25:38,220 --> 01:25:38,888
- I don't know.
1883
01:25:39,180 --> 01:25:41,849
I guess the ultimate goal of
all of this shit is that, like,
1884
01:25:42,141 --> 01:25:43,351
I want people to think.
1885
01:25:44,477 --> 01:25:47,688
Even if they're very critical or emotional
1886
01:25:47,980 --> 01:25:48,606
or whatever it is, you know,
1887
01:25:48,898 --> 01:25:51,192
like as long as they're
there thinking something,
1888
01:25:51,484 --> 01:25:53,527
then that's great
because there's all these
1889
01:25:53,819 --> 01:25:56,656
other platforms of art,
music and television
1890
01:25:56,947 --> 01:26:00,493
and film and whatever you want to pick
1891
01:26:00,785 --> 01:26:05,164
that required no effort and
I think that that's boring.
1892
01:26:06,165 --> 01:26:08,167
- I think the thing about
him being an open book
1893
01:26:08,459 --> 01:26:09,669
is very important.
1894
01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:11,629
I think he's really misunderstood.
1895
01:26:11,921 --> 01:26:12,713
- He's a diehard, man.
1896
01:26:13,005 --> 01:26:15,841
That guy is, is just, he's the real deal.
1897
01:26:16,133 --> 01:26:20,554
- One of the most tender
people I've ever met.
1898
01:26:20,846 --> 01:26:22,598
- You know, he was the
best man at my wedding
1899
01:26:22,890 --> 01:26:25,559
and he scared the fuck
out of all the little kids
1900
01:26:25,851 --> 01:26:27,311
'cause of his mohawk
that he had at the time.
1901
01:26:27,603 --> 01:26:30,731
- I love him. You can put
that in the documentary.
1902
01:26:31,816 --> 01:26:34,026
- [Interviewer] Scooch
over, we can get two shots.
1903
01:26:34,318 --> 01:26:34,860
- What are you doing?
1904
01:26:35,152 --> 01:26:36,445
Get back in, get back in the seat.
1905
01:26:36,737 --> 01:26:38,489
- I'm getting over here by you. (laughs)
1906
01:26:38,781 --> 01:26:40,491
- Get in the seat. Get in the seat.
1907
01:26:40,783 --> 01:26:42,535
- You know, Marx once said that, you know,
1908
01:26:42,827 --> 01:26:44,954
the tradition of all the dead generations
1909
01:26:45,246 --> 01:26:47,748
weighs like a nightmare on
the brain of the living.
1910
01:26:48,040 --> 01:26:50,584
- He's got this whole pile of his past
1911
01:26:50,876 --> 01:26:52,545
kind of pushing him into the future.
1912
01:26:52,837 --> 01:26:56,924
- And when you're 12 years old
and your father is murdered,
1913
01:26:57,216 --> 01:27:00,511
like his was growing
up in an abusive family
1914
01:27:00,803 --> 01:27:03,931
with an alcoholic father
and him getting abused
1915
01:27:04,223 --> 01:27:05,975
and his dog getting abused,
1916
01:27:06,267 --> 01:27:09,478
I think made him more resilient in a way,
1917
01:27:09,770 --> 01:27:11,439
but it also taught him early on
1918
01:27:11,731 --> 01:27:14,442
that the world is a fucked up place.
1919
01:27:14,734 --> 01:27:16,485
- I never wanna say, like,
oh pity me or something
1920
01:27:16,777 --> 01:27:18,070
because I had a roof over my head
1921
01:27:18,362 --> 01:27:21,157
and I was able to eat at
least shitty TV dinners.
1922
01:27:21,449 --> 01:27:24,577
But now I think my mom
is the coolest person.
1923
01:27:24,869 --> 01:27:26,287
Sure she has her flaws, but we all do
1924
01:27:26,579 --> 01:27:27,538
and she did her best, you know
1925
01:27:27,830 --> 01:27:29,081
and I think she did a pretty damn good job
1926
01:27:29,373 --> 01:27:32,376
with what she was given and she's rad.
1927
01:27:32,668 --> 01:27:33,377
Or maybe this one.
1928
01:27:34,378 --> 01:27:35,588
- What? We're really gonna put these on?
1929
01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:37,256
- Yeah, why not?
1930
01:27:37,548 --> 01:27:39,216
(Justin laughs)
1931
01:27:39,508 --> 01:27:40,843
- I liked your furry one better.
1932
01:27:41,135 --> 01:27:42,595
- Oh, here, put this one.
- No, no, I'm just teasing.
1933
01:27:42,887 --> 01:27:43,429
How does this go on?
- It's okay.
1934
01:27:43,721 --> 01:27:44,930
You can wear the furry one.
1935
01:27:45,222 --> 01:27:46,015
- It's fine.
1936
01:27:47,433 --> 01:27:50,644
(Justin laughs)
1937
01:27:50,936 --> 01:27:54,690
- Here, you gotta arrange
it a little bit. (laughs)
1938
01:27:54,982 --> 01:27:57,651
- It's not Halloween yet. (laughs)
1939
01:27:58,944 --> 01:27:59,862
Ah.
- Sorry.
1940
01:28:00,154 --> 01:28:01,447
- You got my hair caught in that.
1941
01:28:01,739 --> 01:28:02,448
- [Justin] Oh, shit.
1942
01:28:02,740 --> 01:28:03,365
- Ah!
1943
01:28:06,535 --> 01:28:08,204
Okay, this is good.
1944
01:28:08,496 --> 01:28:09,789
- You okay?
- Yeah.
1945
01:28:11,540 --> 01:28:12,500
All right.
1946
01:28:12,792 --> 01:28:13,709
(all laughing)
1947
01:28:14,001 --> 01:28:16,670
Whatever. (laughs)
1948
01:28:16,962 --> 01:28:19,340
(all laughing)
1949
01:28:20,508 --> 01:28:22,009
- Oh, mom.
1950
01:28:22,301 --> 01:28:23,385
(all laughing)
1951
01:28:23,677 --> 01:28:24,303
All right.
1952
01:28:27,723 --> 01:28:28,432
- I love you.
- I love you, too.
1953
01:28:28,724 --> 01:28:30,434
Thanks.
(Karen laughs)
1954
01:28:30,726 --> 01:28:34,271
- Make things the best that
you can with what you have.
1955
01:28:34,563 --> 01:28:38,067
It's what we in Latinx
communities call rasquache,
1956
01:28:38,359 --> 01:28:39,819
to make do with what you have.
1957
01:28:41,695 --> 01:28:43,489
- To be honest, this is what I think.
1958
01:28:43,781 --> 01:28:46,325
I think Justin Pearson is an artist
1959
01:28:46,617 --> 01:28:50,287
and he can't fucking do anything else.
1960
01:28:50,579 --> 01:28:51,789
I've even said to him like,
1961
01:28:52,081 --> 01:28:53,332
what would you do if you couldn't do this?
1962
01:28:53,624 --> 01:28:55,167
What if you couldn't start
and do the record label?
1963
01:28:55,459 --> 01:28:57,670
What if you couldn't
make records, go on tour,
1964
01:28:57,962 --> 01:28:59,255
just even record music?
1965
01:29:00,631 --> 01:29:02,299
And he'd just give me the
blank stare and just go,
1966
01:29:02,591 --> 01:29:04,176
"I don't think about that stuff."

(dramatic rock music)
2014
01:32:44,480 --> 01:32:47,941
- I've wanted to learn to play jazz music,
2015
01:32:48,233 --> 01:32:49,068
but I think I need to get
2016
01:32:49,359 --> 01:32:51,945
some sort of instruction with that.
2017
01:32:52,237 --> 01:32:54,114
Every time I try and do
it, it's like, just like,
2018
01:32:54,406 --> 01:32:58,202
just like brutal guy
trying to play jazz music.
2019
01:32:58,494 --> 01:33:01,205
It's just too rock and roll,
like I can't, I can't get it.
2020
01:33:01,497 --> 01:33:04,958
So that's something I'd
like to focus on, I think.
2021
01:33:05,250 --> 01:33:07,628
I think I like the Charles
Mingus bass playing.
2022
01:33:07,920 --> 01:33:10,130
I think like playing
with a bassist like that
2023
01:33:10,422 --> 01:33:11,924
would be really pretty rad.
2024
01:33:12,216 --> 01:33:14,218
Yeah, I think I'd like to
do that for a little bit
2025
01:33:14,510 --> 01:33:15,385
and I'd probably get bored with it
2026
01:33:15,677 --> 01:33:16,678
and want to get brutal again.
2027
01:33:16,970 --> 01:33:17,763
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
2028
01:33:18,055 --> 01:33:21,308
There's just something about
playing, like, brutal music
2029
01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:23,268
that you can't get away from, you know?
