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