7:13 Speaker 11: out there right right?

7:16 Speaker 10: How is that going in Portland? Because Portland's always had

7:19 Speaker 10: a pretty strong music scene, some good college stations there

7:23 Speaker 10: and whatnot.

7:24 Speaker 11: Hey yeah, actually yeah, southern central Maine, I think a

7:27 Speaker 11: really good live music see lots of good local bands. Yeah,

7:32 Speaker 11: always something going on.

7:33 Speaker 10: Yeah, of great bands, yeah, yeah, no doubt. Are are

7:38 Speaker 10: there bands there that you you know sometimes it happens organically.

7:41 Speaker 10: Are there bands there that you've kind of unofficially sort

7:43 Speaker 10: of teamed up with that you play a lot of

7:44 Speaker 10: shows with or what do you think, Chris?

7:47 Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, there there is a bunch of bands.

7:50 Speaker 11: It's a good sense of community. Yeah, everyone I think

7:52 Speaker 11: kind of supports each other.

7:53 Speaker 10: So that's good. Yeah. Yeah, like like who, like who

7:57 Speaker 10: are some other bands there.

7:58 Speaker 11: That Loki Okay?

8:00 Speaker 15: Yeah, okay, we played with low Key quite a lot

8:02 Speaker 15: in a band called in the Wind.

8:04 Speaker 14: Okay, yeah, band called Echo Ritual, Echo Ritual Yeah, yeah, yeah,

8:09 Speaker 14: I mean it's a bunch. I mean, you feel bad

8:11 Speaker 14: name it any because you leave a bunch of Yeah,

8:13 Speaker 14: there's so many.

8:14 Speaker 10: That's true. Yeah, I'm always interested in hearing about bands

8:17 Speaker 10: that we should that we should know about, not all

8:20 Speaker 10: of them. Yeah, yeah, Now is War right now? Do

8:22 Speaker 10: you have a full album out or an EP? Or

8:24 Speaker 10: have you just been releasing singles thus far?

8:26 Speaker 11: There's so many different album is coming out? What the

8:28 Speaker 11: end of this month?

8:30 Speaker 10: Oh really? Oh okay, so coming right up.

8:32 Speaker 11: Yes, we're very excited to get that out. But yeah,

8:34 Speaker 11: War I will be one of the songs on there.

8:37 Speaker 10: Will this be the first release from Pulsifier as a

8:39 Speaker 10: as a full album? Yes, okay, okay, excellent, excellent. We're

8:44 Speaker 10: gonna play in a little bit, uh, the first single

8:48 Speaker 10: which this will be the world radio premiere for that.

8:50 Speaker 10: We're very excited. But now, what what went into deciding

8:54 Speaker 10: to record a full album? Because we live in a

8:56 Speaker 10: time where you have so many different options as far

8:59 Speaker 10: as how you release music. You know, the various guests

9:01 Speaker 10: that we talked to on the show, some some just

9:03 Speaker 10: do singles, some do EPs, some do albums, Some release

9:07 Speaker 10: a series of singles that eventually become an album, which

9:10 Speaker 10: is kind of the inverse of how it used to be.

9:12 Speaker 10: It used to be, you know, you have an album

9:13 Speaker 10: and then you've got singles from that album. So what

9:15 Speaker 10: went into your decision as a band to say, let's

9:17 Speaker 10: let's do a full album.

9:18 Speaker 12: Well, the latter is kind of what we did.

9:19 Speaker 14: We started out doing singles, yeah, and then we were like, hey,

9:23 Speaker 14: we have enough to put together, let's let's do an

9:26 Speaker 14: actual physical copy that a lot of people ask for.

9:28 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, yeah, And so you're actually going to do

9:30 Speaker 10: physical colleges.

9:31 Speaker 11: Yeah, people still ask for that. I was surprised too, Yeah,

9:34 Speaker 11: but everything, Oh yeah, people want that physical CD has

9:37 Speaker 11: the artwork.

9:37 Speaker 10: And yeah, I've kind of come to the conclusion that

9:41 Speaker 10: that's an American phenomenon. And the reason I say that

9:44 Speaker 10: is because we also, in fact the last segment in

9:48 Speaker 10: the second hour, we interviewed a band called Brides from

9:50 Speaker 10: the UK, and we talked to a lot of bands

9:53 Speaker 10: from overseas, and it seems like everybody, everybody that we

9:56 Speaker 10: talked to from Europe, they they're like, oh, CDs are dead.

10:00 Speaker 10: You know, we're just releasing everything digitally. Nobody wants CDs anymore.

10:03 Speaker 10: And here it's been such a especially I think in

10:07 Speaker 10: the last five years maybe ten years. You know, there

10:11 Speaker 10: was a point where it seemed like CDs were dead

10:13 Speaker 10: here too. But then but then they've they've made a resurgence,

10:16 Speaker 10: and Vinyl of course had an even bigger resurgence.

10:18 Speaker 14: Say yeah, yeah, yeah, that's why we're making sure that

10:22 Speaker 14: our artwork for the CD is interesting as well.

10:26 Speaker 12: Yeah, more visuals.

10:27 Speaker 10: Yeah, okay, okay, good, good, Yeah, because that's something I

10:31 Speaker 10: always left like when I was a kid. You know,

10:32 Speaker 10: you open a CD or an album and you have

10:35 Speaker 10: the lyrics, and and if you're really a fan, you know,

10:38 Speaker 10: you'll go through and look at all the liner notes

10:40 Speaker 10: and you know you want to you want to know

10:42 Speaker 10: who their management company is, or who engineered the album

10:45 Speaker 10: or you know, if you really, if you really want

10:47 Speaker 10: to geek out on it, you know, so, which I did.

10:50 Speaker 10: Yeah that's great, that's great.

10:52 Speaker 12: Yeah.

10:52 Speaker 11: How many?

10:53 Speaker 10: So how many tracks on the album?

10:55 Speaker 11: I think this one has? Seven?

10:56 Speaker 12: Yeah?

10:56 Speaker 15: Seven?

10:57 Speaker 10: Seven? Okay, okay.

10:58 Speaker 11: Our songs are slightly younger than some so yeah seven.

11:03 Speaker 10: Okay, okay, Like what's the do you know, offhand, like,

11:05 Speaker 10: what's the longest track on the album?

11:07 Speaker 15: Six nineteen it's a venomous thing.

11:09 Speaker 10: Venomous thing. Oh yes, so I I played that for

11:12 Speaker 10: for those listening live. I did play that in the

11:14 Speaker 10: first hour today to kind of give people a creepy

11:17 Speaker 10: for because that's my favorite of the of the four

11:19 Speaker 10: that you sent me.

11:19 Speaker 13: That was it?

11:21 Speaker 10: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, no, that's a great song. I love

11:24 Speaker 10: the vocals on that. Who so in studio who obviously

11:28 Speaker 10: you know you're the lead singer. Who else is doing

11:30 Speaker 10: the backing vocals on that? Is that all you? Or

11:33 Speaker 10: are there other members singing?

11:34 Speaker 11: They recorded it? Yeah, he had me go back and

11:36 Speaker 11: add the harmony.

11:38 Speaker 10: Yet, Yeah, it sounded really good. It sounded really good.

11:41 Speaker 10: Is that challenging at all? Harmonizing with yourself that way?

11:44 Speaker 10: I've heard some singers say that can be like it's

11:47 Speaker 10: when you're it's easy to harmonize with somebody else, but

11:49 Speaker 10: when it's your own voice that you're listening to, it's

11:51 Speaker 10: challenging to do this.

11:52 Speaker 11: It's really tricky to do it live.

11:53 Speaker 10: Also, well, yeah, so what does happen live? Does everybody sing?

11:59 Speaker 10: Is it does to become a gang vocal thing or

12:01 Speaker 10: do you just use carry it yourself?

12:03 Speaker 11: Yeah? Yeah, just do the main vocal part.

12:05 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, no, that's cool. So how did Pulsifier come together.

12:10 Speaker 10: You know, you mentioned a band that that used to

12:12 Speaker 10: be in Chris, But but how did how did the

12:15 Speaker 10: four of you because again, you know, Portland is such

12:17 Speaker 10: a great scene there, there's musicians everywhere, Like, how did

12:20 Speaker 10: the four of you coalesce to form this this unit?

12:22 Speaker 14: What was kind of the well I was, I was

12:24 Speaker 14: in a I was in a band called Signal to

12:26 Speaker 14: Noise for a while. I remember Signal to Noise still

12:29 Speaker 14: out there, still killing it.

12:30 Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, okay, So it was it was a deal

12:34 Speaker 12: where some of my.

12:35 Speaker 14: Music wasn't being brought to the front. Yeah, and my

12:39 Speaker 14: ladies like I can write with songs, so any.

12:42 Speaker 11: Riffs that they didn't use the opportunity to write.

12:46 Speaker 10: So so you had ideas, but you know, it kind

12:48 Speaker 10: of was it kind of a crowded situation where you've

12:51 Speaker 10: got you've got the people who write, and they don't

12:53 Speaker 10: kind of want to necessarily share that.

12:55 Speaker 12: That's right.

12:56 Speaker 14: Yeah, And and and so we would me and MEA

12:59 Speaker 14: would set the campfire. MO would write these songs and uh,

13:03 Speaker 14: and we're like, what are we doing? We gotta we

13:05 Speaker 14: gotta do our own comes up.

13:07 Speaker 11: With these guitar riffs that I can just feel what

13:09 Speaker 11: he's feeling and inspires me. And I had been writing

13:12 Speaker 11: poetry and stuff previously, so I thought I can.

13:15 Speaker 14: Write words for this and yeah, okay, yeah, and then

13:18 Speaker 14: we we looked for a while to get the you

13:22 Speaker 14: get these guys to jump on with us, and you know,

13:25 Speaker 14: the right the right fit is super important.

13:28 Speaker 12: The chemistry has to be right.

13:29 Speaker 10: Yeah.

13:29 Speaker 14: Yeah, because I really I built this band from second

13:33 Speaker 14: one to be a band, to be on a bus,

13:35 Speaker 14: to be touring constantly, so you know, not only musicians,

13:40 Speaker 14: but the chemistry, the thing had to be right.

13:42 Speaker 11: Yeah, like a family. Yeah, because we're all living together

13:45 Speaker 11: when we're on the bus, when we're on the road.

13:47 Speaker 10: So yeah, it's yeah. I think I had a phone

13:52 Speaker 10: conversation with you all once. I don't know if you remember,

13:55 Speaker 10: and you're about about about our radio stuff and then

14:00 Speaker 10: and I think you were you were on your way

14:02 Speaker 10: to a show or something.

14:03 Speaker 11: You were I remember that again because we were on

14:04 Speaker 11: the bus.

14:05 Speaker 10: Yeah, speak, Yeah, that's right. So how how far have

14:10 Speaker 10: you have you gone as far as story and like,

14:11 Speaker 10: where have you gone outside of outside of the area.

14:14 Speaker 15: Patrick can tell us that, Okay, yeah, we've we've gone

15:45 Speaker 11: but merely to seek and find all the barriers within

15:49 Speaker 11: yourself that you have built against it. Okay, the words

22:30 Speaker 10: any videos for these for any of these songs, because

22:33 Speaker 10: because the music, I mean, there's there's an element of

22:35 Speaker 10: I don't know if theatricality is quite the word, but but.

22:38 Speaker 11: That's definitely a good word.

22:40 Speaker 10: It seems like it seems like these songs would would

22:43 Speaker 10: lend themselves to that.

22:44 Speaker 11: Definitely. I agree, Yeah, I like the theatrics.

22:47 Speaker 12: Yeah, everything kind of in order. We haven't quite got there.

23:03 Speaker 15: It's kind of like a three step process where or

23:06 Speaker 15: we we've been advised to kind of do like a

23:09 Speaker 15: short teaser video as we're coming up to releasing the

23:14 Speaker 15: song before we release it, and then maybe a little later,

23:18 Speaker 15: do a lyric video for Barriers for the same song

23:21 Speaker 15: Barriers within yeah, and then a little after that do

23:24 Speaker 15: the full music video.

23:26 Speaker 10: Okay okay, and then what's what's the live show? Like

23:29 Speaker 10: I mean, are there any I guess, I guess uh.

23:32 Speaker 10: Theatrics said, yes.

23:34 Speaker 11: We definitely try to incorporate a lot of visual so

23:37 Speaker 11: there's something for people to watch, get right upon them. Okay,

23:40 Speaker 11: can you hear me?

23:41 Speaker 6: Now?

23:41 Speaker 10: You can pull it closer to you if it's easier,

23:43 Speaker 10: that's fine too. Yeah. I just want to make sure

23:44 Speaker 10: we try.

23:45 Speaker 11: To incorporate a lot of visual so people can you know,

23:48 Speaker 11: it helps to tell the story, yeah, goes along with

23:51 Speaker 11: the lyrics. So yeah, there's definitely some props involved.

23:54 Speaker 15: Okay, okay, have you seen any videos of our live performances. No,

23:58 Speaker 15: we have a ton on YouTube. Will a hundred videos

24:01 Speaker 15: on YouTube? Oh my god, you can see what we're

24:03 Speaker 15: all about.

24:04 Speaker 11: And each song and each song has its own feel,

24:07 Speaker 11: each song tells its own story, So there's props, there's visuals,

24:11 Speaker 11: there's stuff going on that that kind of recreate that

24:16 Speaker 11: and add to it, and we're hoping, yeah, that the

24:19 Speaker 11: audience will feel just immersed, yeah, rounded and a part

24:22 Speaker 11: of it.

24:23 Speaker 10: Yeah.

24:23 Speaker 14: A lot of these topics for these songs are not

24:27 Speaker 14: the norm, so it's it's it's nice to have the

24:30 Speaker 14: visuals to help explain you.

24:33 Speaker 11: The horse Head with War Cry like there's a meeting.

24:35 Speaker 11: It's not just about the horse head, right. That song,

24:40 Speaker 11: you know, was inspired by researching Alexander the Great's war horse,

24:44 Speaker 11: uciphilis really Yeah, if you ever look up the story

24:49 Speaker 11: of bucyphilis. He was afraid of his own shadow, and

24:52 Speaker 11: Alexander the Great learned if you turn him away from

24:56 Speaker 11: his shadow, turn his head to the sun. He became

24:59 Speaker 11: this great warrior. Yeah, and we just thought, you know,

25:02 Speaker 11: we could all apply that to our lives. We turn

25:04 Speaker 11: away from your own darkness.

25:05 Speaker 10: And interesting look to the light.

25:07 Speaker 11: So yeah, there's different props that represent stuff like that.

25:11 Speaker 10: Okay, okay, that's cool. What are some of the other

25:14 Speaker 10: lyrical themes that show up in these songs?

25:18 Speaker 11: Well, for example, distracted Gaze, the props for that are chains. Yeah,

25:23 Speaker 11: that's the song about anyone who's ever struggled, or who

25:28 Speaker 11: has known someone who has struggled, breaking free from the

25:31 Speaker 11: chains of addiction, whatever that addiction may be.

25:34 Speaker 10: That's relatable for a lot of people.

25:36 Speaker 11: Yeah, we always hope that with our songs. Yeah, there'll

25:38 Speaker 11: be something somebody can relate to. Yeah, and we'll have

25:42 Speaker 11: lived through themselves.

25:43 Speaker 10: Yeah. Yeah, does it ever happen? Where does anyone ever

25:46 Speaker 10: approach you and say, hey, that that song.

25:48 Speaker 11: Really after some of our lives shows, people have come up,

25:52 Speaker 11: and that is actually the best feeling, the best feedback

25:55 Speaker 11: when someone comes up. Sometimes after Scars, I've had people

26:00 Speaker 11: come up and share their own very like private personal

26:03 Speaker 11: stories of what they have gone through too and how

26:06 Speaker 11: the music has helped them not to feel so alone.

26:09 Speaker 12: Yeah, distracted gaze as well. Yeah really, Yeah, she's had

26:14 Speaker 12: to like spend moments with people like like they won't.

26:17 Speaker 11: Really they open up and share these yeah, like personally

26:20 Speaker 11: and we kind of have that connection which is so special, which.

26:23 Speaker 12: Is what we're looking for.

26:24 Speaker 10: Yeah, exactly.

26:27 Speaker 11: Yeah, kept in touch. There's a few people, yeah, who

26:30 Speaker 11: want to keep in touch and we still talk through.

26:32 Speaker 10: Some things and oh that's excellent. Yeah yeah it's great. Yeah, yeah,

36:23 Speaker 11: Personas personas?

36:25 Speaker 10: Yes, I love it. That is that is really good.

36:28 Speaker 10: It's really good. Gets you move in, gets you move in.

36:30 Speaker 10: And we also heard Scars before that too, another great track.

36:34 Speaker 10: And uh, we got one more that we're gonna say

36:36 Speaker 10: for the end. But so we were talking off air

36:40 Speaker 10: while I was playing, and Chris, you were commenting, and

36:43 Speaker 10: this is something I noticed. So I'm glad you reminded

36:44 Speaker 10: me because I wanted to ask about this. When you're

36:48 Speaker 10: when you're soloing, you know there's not a second guitar

36:51 Speaker 10: track underneath. That's right, and which is an interesting decision

36:55 Speaker 10: because that's that's not what a lot of bands do,

36:57 Speaker 10: although some bands do that. But but you can can

37:00 Speaker 10: you explain, uh, because you were explaining it off Aaron,

37:03 Speaker 10: This was interesting to me. Why you make that choice.

37:05 Speaker 14: Yeah, it just allows the uh, the fantastic bass plane

37:09 Speaker 14: of Patrick to shine through where it should. Yeah, you know,

37:12 Speaker 14: we want to make sure that's heard, you know, not

37:14 Speaker 14: only in the uh in the souls, but.

37:16 Speaker 12: Through the songs as well.

37:17 Speaker 14: Yeah, and we did two or three passes for some

37:20 Speaker 14: of these songs, like hey, can you turn up the

37:21 Speaker 14: base a little bit more on this recording? Yeah, we

37:24 Speaker 14: want to make sure that it's there, and we want

37:26 Speaker 14: to make sure it's kind of like it simulates live sound.

37:32 Speaker 10: Yeah.

37:32 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's what we sound like.

37:34 Speaker 10: As a bass player myself. I commend you for that

37:36 Speaker 10: because because we we bass players don't get the respect

37:39 Speaker 10: we deserve.

37:39 Speaker 15: Right, my friends, now we're friends now, Yes.

37:42 Speaker 12: Yes, Patrick gets it, don't you worry.

37:44 Speaker 10: No, that's good. That's good.

37:47 Speaker 11: And then.

37:49 Speaker 10: So when you do is that is that the case

37:52 Speaker 10: with all those songs, like do you use it so

37:54 Speaker 10: you don't use the second guitar track on anything No, wow, okay, interesting, okay, No,

37:59 Speaker 10: that's yeah. No, I like that and it does. Yeah,

38:02 Speaker 10: it does. Let the whole rhythm section kind of come through,

38:05 Speaker 10: which was it Scars too? There's like, uh, there's a

38:09 Speaker 10: solo you do toward the end. Was it Scars or

38:11 Speaker 10: was it the one we played before that where it's

38:12 Speaker 10: like you kind of don't see it coming, like all

38:14 Speaker 10: of a sudden, you're playing and it's like, oh, I

38:16 Speaker 10: didn't expect a solo there.

38:17 Speaker 12: Yeah it was Barriers.

38:19 Speaker 10: Yeah, well it might have been. It probably was. Yeah,

38:22 Speaker 10: Actually it feels like yeah. And I was like and

38:24 Speaker 10: I was like, oh, that's cool. Oh it must have

38:26 Speaker 10: been Barriers because I hadn't heard that before now yeah,

38:28 Speaker 10: and so and because the other ones I'd already listened to,

38:31 Speaker 10: and I was kind of like, oh, but I like that.

38:32 Speaker 10: I like the surprise. You know, it fits right, but

38:34 Speaker 10: it's still kind of a surprise. It's like, oh, that

38:36 Speaker 10: solo kind of sneaks up on you. Yeah.

38:38 Speaker 14: That whole breakdown section is the part that Patrick had

38:40 Speaker 14: written Okay that I kind of played over the top

38:43 Speaker 14: of it.

38:43 Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, yeah, like, hey, what was that bass rif?

38:46 Speaker 12: Just play it? On the guitar and play a solo

38:48 Speaker 12: over it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I like that. Yeah.

38:51 Speaker 10: I'm kind of curious too about some of your influences

38:54 Speaker 10: as far as vocals, like who who did you listen

38:57 Speaker 10: to growing up? Or who do you listen to now?

38:59 Speaker 10: And who who?

39:00 Speaker 11: Kind of so many But yeah, we were talking about

39:03 Speaker 11: that where we all came from different backgrounds before we

39:06 Speaker 11: all got together. I was actually from a theater background

39:10 Speaker 11: before teaming up with these guys, so musical theater and

39:14 Speaker 11: community theater stuff like that since I was a kid.

39:18 Speaker 10: Yeah, So is that is that how you learn to

39:21 Speaker 10: sing basically and the way that you do?

39:23 Speaker 11: I used to say, I'm not necessarily a singer. I'm

39:26 Speaker 11: an actress. I can act like I can sing, and

39:30 Speaker 11: you know, lots of karaoke nights. Yeah, And I would

39:33 Speaker 11: say what I lack in talent, I make up for

39:36 Speaker 11: with enthusiasm.

39:39 Speaker 10: But so you didn't have any vocal any formal training

39:42 Speaker 10: as far as working with a vocal coach or anything.

39:43 Speaker 11: Not formal training now, you know, just yeah, just for fun, Yeah,

39:47 Speaker 11: singing along with the radio, karaoke nights, stuff like that.

39:50 Speaker 10: Yeah. Is there anyone who kind of inspires you in

39:53 Speaker 10: terms of how they sing, like I see, I hope

39:56 Speaker 10: this isn't too cliche, but I hear a little bit

39:58 Speaker 10: of Ann Wilson all right, thank you?

40:00 Speaker 11: Yes, yeah, yeah, that's a huge compliment. Yep, she's amazing,

40:07 Speaker 11: Amy Lee with avan essence love them. Yeah yeah, I

40:12 Speaker 11: grew up yeah in the nineties with that, Like that's

40:15 Speaker 11: a huge influence.

40:16 Speaker 10: Yeah.

40:16 Speaker 11: Alanis Morissette is such a good storyteller. Yes, yeah, just

40:22 Speaker 11: a lot.

40:22 Speaker 3: Yeah.

40:23 Speaker 10: And then so so who who are the primary writers?

40:26 Speaker 10: So is that the two of you?

40:27 Speaker 13: Is it?

40:28 Speaker 12: Well?

40:28 Speaker 10: As far as music, and.

40:29 Speaker 12: We all definitely do our own parts, that's their own part.

40:32 Speaker 9: Yeah.

40:33 Speaker 11: I write the words and sing them. Yeah, Chris does

40:35 Speaker 11: the guitar, riffs, Jay on drums, Patrick on bass, and

40:39 Speaker 11: we all you know, when we come together, it just

40:41 Speaker 11: grows into something new.

40:43 Speaker 12: Yeah. Right, it's no fun having one guy dictate everything.

40:46 Speaker 10: Yeah.

40:46 Speaker 14: I want to be inspired by the other guys in

40:48 Speaker 14: the room, people in the room. So I want everybody

40:50 Speaker 14: to do their own thing well as much as possible.

40:53 Speaker 14: Everybody has ideas.

40:54 Speaker 10: Oh yeah, well certainly, and again there's part of my

40:57 Speaker 10: bass by bias as a bass player. But you know,

41:00 Speaker 10: but but certainly it does sound like the rhythm section

41:03 Speaker 10: has a lot to do with how these songs. Oh yeah,

41:06 Speaker 10: flesh out because you know, both the bass and the drums.

41:09 Speaker 10: I mean you can really hear everything comes through and

41:13 Speaker 10: uh and it is definitely a part of the Pulsifier sound.

41:17 Speaker 14: Absolutely, Yeah, everybody playing off each other. You can hear

41:20 Speaker 14: like the bass does follows the drums or back and

41:22 Speaker 14: forth or whatever. Everybody's kind of Oh that's a cool part.

41:26 Speaker 14: Let me see if I can accent that. Yeah, a

41:28 Speaker 14: lot of lot to feel that way.

41:31 Speaker 10: Where does the name come from? By the way, Pulsifier

41:33 Speaker 10: Who came up with the name?

41:35 Speaker 12: Yeah?

41:35 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, it has meaning though, do you want to

41:38 Speaker 11: explain it early?

41:39 Speaker 12: You can.

41:42 Speaker 11: The idea behind it was, you know that inspiration comes

41:46 Speaker 11: from not from just us personally, but from all around us. Yeah,

41:51 Speaker 11: and we take that inspiration and use it to make

41:54 Speaker 11: something new. You know, it passes through us as a

41:57 Speaker 11: band that we can share with everyone else as something different.

42:01 Speaker 10: Yeah, no, that makes sense.

42:03 Speaker 11: The vibrational pulse.

42:05 Speaker 12: Right right, so we add our own spin on the

42:07 Speaker 12: vibe and send it back out.

42:09 Speaker 10: Yeah okay. And then the name of the album personas,

42:12 Speaker 10: where where does that name come from personas.

42:14 Speaker 14: Oh, that's just it's that is because every song is

42:18 Speaker 14: kind of like it's kind of a each character of

42:23 Speaker 14: someone's personality. You know, if you go to work, you

42:25 Speaker 14: have one persona. If you want to rock stage, you're

42:28 Speaker 14: on another persona. And that's what this album is like.

42:30 Speaker 14: It's all these songs are are kind of like a

42:33 Speaker 14: journey of growth, Yeah, with different characters and different shadows

42:38 Speaker 14: that you have to deal with.

42:40 Speaker 11: The warrior, the lover, the the child, the animal, yeah,

42:46 Speaker 11: the inner voice, ye, shadow, all of it.

42:50 Speaker 10: Yeah, No, that's that's cool. When you when you play live,

42:55 Speaker 10: do you do you have any material that you haven't

42:57 Speaker 10: recorded that is part of your live set, because it

43:00 Speaker 10: sounds like you got a lot of ideas. You probably

43:02 Speaker 10: have lots of songs. I haven't red it yet, right.

43:05 Speaker 12: Yeah, we have way too many songs and really yeah, yeah, it's.

43:09 Speaker 15: So hard to decide which songs to put on the

43:12 Speaker 15: album because like in my opinion, and I think in

43:15 Speaker 15: all of our opinions, every single song is a banger,

43:17 Speaker 15: Like they can all be the single. None of them

43:19 Speaker 15: are filler. Yeah, So it was like almost a shame

43:22 Speaker 15: only doing seven songs.

43:23 Speaker 10: It's a good problem. To have. But yeah, it's like,

43:26 Speaker 10: I mean, how do you even decide when you've got

43:28 Speaker 10: I mean how hard? Yeah?

43:29 Speaker 11: Like which ones do we leave out? We don't want

43:32 Speaker 11: to leave any of them out? I want them all

43:33 Speaker 11: out there.

43:34 Speaker 10: How many songs do you have? Can you put a

43:36 Speaker 10: number on it? Like as a band originals?

43:40 Speaker 11: How many do you think? No finish?

43:43 Speaker 12: So I actually we.

43:44 Speaker 14: Actually try to prioritize and not like completely finish the song,

43:50 Speaker 14: and we live and we give it plenty times to grow.

43:53 Speaker 14: There's many songs we jam we are constantly jamming on.

43:56 Speaker 14: We have one called h I Have the Storm. It's

43:58 Speaker 14: been something we've been the new one. We've been just

44:01 Speaker 14: messing with that for months now. It's just slowly growing.

44:04 Speaker 12: It has to give. You have to give it time.

44:06 Speaker 15: You have to time to grow, like simmering in the pot.

44:09 Speaker 8: Yeah.

44:10 Speaker 14: Yeah, we came up with a new part on that

44:12 Speaker 14: song just a couple of weeks ago. It was it

44:14 Speaker 14: was like, oh, there we go, that's what we were

44:15 Speaker 14: looking forwards.

44:16 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's great.

44:17 Speaker 10: Yeah, where did did we talk about where you recorded? Where? Where?

44:21 Speaker 10: Where did you've recorded these? Because everything Halo Studio?

44:25 Speaker 11: Okay, John Wyman.

44:27 Speaker 10: Yeah, Okay, I want to make sure legendary. Everything sounds

44:30 Speaker 10: so good, so we want to make sure. Okay, so

44:32 Speaker 10: tell me. So I don't know about John Wyman, tell

44:33 Speaker 10: me about him.

44:34 Speaker 14: The halo is is world famous or infamous? Oh yeah, yeah,

44:39 Speaker 14: and yeah he's uh, he's done some done some pretty

44:43 Speaker 14: incredible stuff, especially with the local scene. But he's also

44:46 Speaker 14: also on National Guy. You know, I don't want to misspeak.

44:49 Speaker 14: I don't I can't say for sure. Some of the

44:51 Speaker 14: Nationalists done, but he's done.

44:54 Speaker 12: You know.

44:55 Speaker 14: I think the last one is big thing he did

44:57 Speaker 14: was pretty reckless stuff. I'm not okay, yeah, okay.

45:00 Speaker 10: So he's in Portland or is he? Where is he?

45:03 Speaker 12: Yeah? Non descript undisclosed buildings.

45:07 Speaker 11: Yeah, it looks like yeah, from the outside, you would

45:10 Speaker 11: not expect what's on the inside. I love that.

45:13 Speaker 12: Okay, Yeah, what a cool spot.

45:15 Speaker 10: Wow.

45:15 Speaker 12: Yeah, the good guy is amazing.

45:19 Speaker 10: And how did you come to work with him? How

45:20 Speaker 10: did that come about? Because because he's obviously a big.

45:23 Speaker 14: You know, yeah, it bled over from from my previous

45:25 Speaker 14: bands that I would I would call it there. Yeah, okay,

45:28 Speaker 14: oh cool, And I just knew that I'm not going

45:31 Speaker 14: to go anywhere else.

45:32 Speaker 12: That's the place to go.

45:33 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, actually, yeah, it's such a good ear for details.

45:38 Speaker 10: Does he does he kind of become like, you know,

45:41 Speaker 10: because obviously every producer has their own style, everyone's different,

45:44 Speaker 10: everyone kind of has their own approach. Does he become

45:46 Speaker 10: like like that, like a fifth member of the band.

45:49 Speaker 12: Or he did? Yeah, yeah, he was.

45:51 Speaker 9: He was.

45:53 Speaker 12: Talking about doing the harmonies for for Scars.

45:59 Speaker 11: He gets excited and then you know, are like, we're

46:01 Speaker 11: onto something. Likes it.

46:04 Speaker 14: Yeah, she's be't doing her vocal stuff. And after you

46:06 Speaker 14: take Ea spins around, he's like, did you guys hear that?

46:08 Speaker 10: Yeah?

46:08 Speaker 12: That was that was fantastic. And you let me bring

46:11 Speaker 12: out my little player and show you the fists.

46:14 Speaker 11: And no kidd Yeah, and he'll play something.

46:18 Speaker 12: Very creative, so he gets the juices flowing as well.

46:21 Speaker 3: Brilliant.

46:21 Speaker 15: Yeah, and he has the most incredible ear too, Like

46:24 Speaker 15: your guitar could be out of tune by one cent

46:28 Speaker 15: and they'll be like, oh, no, tune not And you're like,

46:30 Speaker 15: what do you mean, Like it's imperfect?

46:32 Speaker 12: You know it's not.

46:33 Speaker 14: We're playing the live track and he's like, Patrick, your

46:36 Speaker 14: d string is off, it's flat.

46:38 Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm like, okay, not according to the tuner, it's not,

46:42 Speaker 12: but you're.

46:44 Speaker 11: Easy on you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he gets the best

46:47 Speaker 11: out of you.

46:48 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's what it takes. It's but it's also good

46:51 Speaker 10: to you, good, good for you. It speaks you know,

46:55 Speaker 10: you're obviously mature as a band to be able to

46:57 Speaker 10: work with someone like because some people can't work with

46:59 Speaker 10: a producer like that, you know what I mean. Some

47:01 Speaker 10: people get resentful. They feel like, oh, this guy's trying

47:04 Speaker 10: to take over what I'm doing, you know what I mean.

47:07 Speaker 10: So for you to be able to go in and

47:08 Speaker 10: be open, you know, not everyone can go to him.

47:11 Speaker 11: We want that.

47:12 Speaker 14: Yeah, you've gotta be careful not to be too attached

47:14 Speaker 14: to your own ideas. It prevents growth and thought.

47:17 Speaker 12: You just have to go with that.

47:19 Speaker 11: But he lets us try too. That's another thing.

47:20 Speaker 4: I like.

47:21 Speaker 11: I'll be like, can I just try? I go be like,

47:22 Speaker 11: this is gonna sound really weird. Can I just try something?

47:25 Speaker 10: Yeah, And I'll be like.

47:26 Speaker 11: And then give me your feedback. If you don't like it,

47:28 Speaker 11: we'll cut it, take it. Lets me try stuff.

47:33 Speaker 10: I'm really glad I moved that filter. He sounds so

47:35 Speaker 10: much better.

47:36 Speaker 11: Let's start over.

47:37 Speaker 10: Yeah, but if you are just joining us. We have

47:40 Speaker 10: Pulsifier here with us alive in studio, and so what's

47:45 Speaker 10: kind of the do you know what the sort of

47:47 Speaker 10: the long term plan is? So the album will be

47:49 Speaker 10: out probably October, like what's kind.

47:53 Speaker 11: Of about October?

47:54 Speaker 10: And then you're gonna be hitting the road again or

47:56 Speaker 10: then we are hitting.

47:57 Speaker 11: The road again for another national tour. This one's called Rocktober.

48:01 Speaker 15: Okay, Scottie Austin from Saving Abel Oh.

48:05 Speaker 10: Okay, yeah, yeah, okay, So so tell us about this.

48:08 Speaker 10: Is this like a is it like a package tour,

48:10 Speaker 10: a festival or what like what?

48:12 Speaker 12: It's kind of a mixture? Yeah, he is.

48:13 Speaker 14: He is making a big push for one of one

48:17 Speaker 14: of his songs, so he has kind of like handpicked

48:20 Speaker 14: his favorite spots that he's played over the years. Oh

48:24 Speaker 14: and so this is gonna be like this ought to

48:26 Speaker 14: be a pretty interesting tour.

48:27 Speaker 10: Yeah.

48:28 Speaker 12: Yeah, you have a lot of support and he's wild.

48:32 Speaker 11: He's so fun to watch live. Yeah, a lot of fun,

48:35 Speaker 11: very entertaining.

48:36 Speaker 14: Yeah, we just did a show with him in Ohio

48:40 Speaker 14: and we were just standing out watching and he just

48:42 Speaker 14: looked at it. He's like, you guys are coming up

48:45 Speaker 14: with us.

48:46 Speaker 10: Oh that's very cool.

48:49 Speaker 11: Yeah, we had to run up, but we're in that

48:51 Speaker 11: half pipe. We're in there's a skate park. The stage

48:55 Speaker 11: was on the top of the half pipe, so he's like,

48:57 Speaker 11: come on up here, guys, and we like ran up

48:59 Speaker 11: the I jumped on stage.

49:01 Speaker 12: Yeah.

49:03 Speaker 10: He's quite character and great, great entertainer. Yeah, oh very cool.

49:07 Speaker 10: Are you on the full tour? Are you doing the

49:09 Speaker 10: whole run with him? Who on the whole way? Excellent?

49:12 Speaker 14: We actually have We actually have three more after that

49:16 Speaker 14: before April three one tours, so we're going to be

49:18 Speaker 14: busy through the yeah. Yeah, and after that we want

49:22 Speaker 14: to flip the script. We want to be on the

49:23 Speaker 14: other side of of the you know, instead of direct support.

49:26 Speaker 14: We want to see if we can, uh, what we

49:29 Speaker 14: can do as far as headlining a small club tour.

49:32 Speaker 12: Yeah, we're just kind of feeling it out, yeah, what

49:34 Speaker 12: we can do. Yeah.

49:36 Speaker 10: Yeah, so you're on the right path. Are you on

49:39 Speaker 10: a label by the way, as far as the album

49:40 Speaker 10: itself that's going to be coming out or is that

49:42 Speaker 10: all DI I Y or how are you doing that?

49:43 Speaker 10: Because there's so many Like we were talking about earlier,

49:45 Speaker 10: there's so many ways to release music. Now, there's so

49:47 Speaker 10: many ways to.

49:49 Speaker 12: Yeah, this this management, but there's no it's it would

49:52 Speaker 12: still technically independent. Yeah, it protects us the best.

49:55 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, it does, absolutely does.

49:59 Speaker 14: There's no you know a lot of time, you know,

50:01 Speaker 14: you hear it over and over, there's no reason to

50:03 Speaker 14: have a label. I'm sure labels will disagree, and I'm

50:05 Speaker 14: sure that they can get you out there. But there's

50:08 Speaker 14: a there's always a back and forth, there's always a

50:10 Speaker 14: you always pay for it one way or another.

50:12 Speaker 10: It's always a risk too, because you know a label,

50:15 Speaker 10: you know, they might come along and offer you a

50:17 Speaker 10: bunch of you know, big advance for your album or

50:19 Speaker 10: whatever and that kind of thing, and the cash infusion

50:21 Speaker 10: is great, it can be, and they might, you know,

50:25 Speaker 10: they might make you famous. They also might have you

50:28 Speaker 10: record an album and then say we've changed our mind

50:30 Speaker 10: and shelve your album that you've worked on and you

50:33 Speaker 10: can't be heartbreak and you can't do anything with it.

50:37 Speaker 14: Oh yeah, hey, there's a there's already a hard rock

50:40 Speaker 14: album out. We're going to hold yours off until that

50:42 Speaker 14: runs its course. And oh yeah, there's a lot to it.

50:45 Speaker 10: There's so much that can go wrong. Yeah, and I'm

50:49 Speaker 10: not saying, you know, I mean, obviously, if the right

50:51 Speaker 10: deal came along, you know, you'd consider it, right, but

50:54 Speaker 10: absolutely yeah, But but you're being smart about it, you know.

50:57 Speaker 10: And and we live in a time where you don't

50:58 Speaker 10: have to wait for the right deal. You can just

51:00 Speaker 10: go make your own you know, go make your own way.

51:03 Speaker 10: And and so I think you're on a great path.

51:05 Speaker 10: I think you're Yeah.

51:06 Speaker 14: I mean, it comes to a point where in order

51:08 Speaker 14: to do some of the bigger things you have to

51:10 Speaker 14: be on the label. We're not quite there yet, so

51:12 Speaker 14: we're not worried about it. Yeah, yeah, no, I think

51:14 Speaker 14: so until then, we're gonna drive our own ship a

51:16 Speaker 14: little bit longer.

51:16 Speaker 10: There you go, There you go. No, I think that's

51:18 Speaker 10: the right approach. Absolutely so. And then we should remind

51:23 Speaker 10: people too about Swarmy Fest coming out November fifteenth.

51:27 Speaker 11: Yeah, Yes, November fifteenth. Swarmy Fast sounds like it's going

51:31 Speaker 11: to be amazing. Has the band Sepsis, Yeah, and a

51:35 Speaker 11: bunch of other bands and acts and performers.

51:38 Speaker 10: Silent Season is now co headlining with Sepsis, which is cool.

51:41 Speaker 10: We had them on recently and uh, yeah, they're they're great.

51:45 Speaker 11: We're very excited to be part of it.

51:46 Speaker 10: Yeah yeah, yeah, right across the street a Jewel and

51:50 Speaker 10: this show Matt Conderton Unleashed. We're one of the sponsors.

51:53 Speaker 10: This will be our third year.

51:54 Speaker 12: Very cool.

51:55 Speaker 10: Yeah yeah, so we'll be there, Jenny and I will

51:57 Speaker 10: be there, so yeah, really looking forward to that. So yeah,

52:01 Speaker 10: that'll be a fun.

52:01 Speaker 11: Yeah, we can't wait.

52:02 Speaker 15: Yeah, we've been trying to play with Stepsis for a

52:04 Speaker 15: little while, but we've had opportunities, but there's always just

52:07 Speaker 15: been you know, a wrench in the plans with timing.

52:10 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, kind of coordinate. Yeah, who's free when? So yeah,

52:13 Speaker 11: we're very excited to team up with them and everyone

52:16 Speaker 11: who's part of it. Yeah yeah, everyone who comes out. Yeah,

52:19 Speaker 11: it's like, come on out and party with us.

52:20 Speaker 10: We're gonna have fun, absolutely absolutely, Well, the time goes quickly.

52:25 Speaker 10: We are approaching the top of the hour, and I

52:26 Speaker 10: want to make sure that we can get this last

52:28 Speaker 10: song and because we are going to play in a moment,

52:33 Speaker 10: we're gonna play Venomous Thing. Okay, So I need to

52:35 Speaker 10: know is there a story, like.

52:36 Speaker 11: What is a story behind everything?

52:38 Speaker 10: I need to know, especially this one, because like I said,

52:40 Speaker 10: this one's my favorite.

52:42 Speaker 11: Yes, there's a story behind every song that we do.

52:44 Speaker 11: So for this one for Venomous Thing, like we talked about,

52:47 Speaker 11: it was actually the first single that we released, and

52:51 Speaker 11: this song is really for anyone who's ever dealt with

52:57 Speaker 11: any type of toxic relationship, codependent relationship, and it's really

53:03 Speaker 11: about kind of looking at that whole relationship but also

53:07 Speaker 11: looking at yourself, like self reflection. And you know what

53:10 Speaker 11: part did I play? And like with most of our songs,

53:14 Speaker 11: it's you know, the the underlying element is also about

53:17 Speaker 11: becoming stronger and healing and just personal growth.

53:21 Speaker 10: Yeah, okay, okay, very good. I like the positive message

53:24 Speaker 10: and all of that, so, which seems to be a

53:26 Speaker 10: theme in your music. So I think that's amazing it is, yes,

53:29 Speaker 10: And also so before we play that, before we finish

53:32 Speaker 10: up one other thing, where's the best place for people

53:34 Speaker 10: to go online? Where should people go online? To keep

53:36 Speaker 10: up with everything Pulsifier is doing.
