A THINKING MAN'S POSE: Thanks to Guitar World and Bass Player Magazine for this interview from a couple of months back, when I was talking about the video for "A Quickening/Steiner In Ellipses" quite a bit. As you can see, I'm in deep contemplation about things. 🤘🤘
Don't forget (just because it's not a focus of the interview): The Aristocrats' new live album "FREEZE: Live In Europe 2020" is on pre-sale now as well, and drops on May 7. You know what to do. 🎸🎸🥁

True story. 🎸🎸🥁"Part of the rush of seeing a live show is, you walk in and wonder...what cool moments will only happen *here*, tonight? For us, what happened on these songs, on these three nights, was unique. Because, really, it always is. That live spirit is what we wanted to share on FREEZE." Bryan Beller
ST. VINCENT'S SECRET WEAPON: Justin Meldal-Johnsen doing Justin Meldal-Johnsen shit. It's like someone took his bass line on "Sexx Laws" and slowed it down to 30% speed, added twice as many chord changes, and made it groove even harder. Crazy.
