Aaaaand I'm back! Busy, busy, busy time of year and this episode will be a quick one...which was sort of the intention in the first place. I went and saw Brutus live last week, you should not miss them if they come to your town. I also dig into Renewer, Bandhood and Oslo Tapes. Ramble on way too long about how those core memories of yours meeting your favorite bands are not core memories of theirs...sorry, they just aren't, and urge you all to go watch the KEXP session with New Age Doom. Plus, I dig into an artist I have been fanboying over lately, Lola Young. Probably not what you'd be expecting on this show, but give her a listen and you too may fall hard for her music. Think Adele if she grew up a grimy punk.

In this second episode of Future Echoes, I dig into Vancouver, BC band, New Age Doom, their newest album, There is No End, featuring Tuvaband, as well as an album they did with Lee Scratch Perry, "...Guide to the Universe". I then take a look back at their drummer's other band, who I fell in love with while living in Vancouver, Limblifter. You should also check out Mounties, if you dig Limblifter.
Plus, we cover some news, tours, new album announcements and so much more!
I also dig into upcoming releases and announced tours. A bit longer than the last, but hope you enjoy the show.

Not really a "welcome back" but more of a "JD got bored and needed to ramble out loud to himself about music". The point of Future Echoes — surprisingly, not an homage to Slomatics, but I do love them — is to have fun remembering great music from the past and digging into the new what next! Showing us old folks that great music is certainly still being made, you just got too busy to search it out, and hopefully introducing you young'uns to bands that influenced who you listen to today. Will there still be heavier music? Yep, but not entirely. Prepare for a JD overdose with lots of lip smacking, heavy breathing (I really need to find that pop filter) and rambling galore

In this episode, JD remembers how much he loved Ministry, as they have announced that their next album will be their last. Al is 65!!
And then he urges you to check out Blues Funeral Records, then dig into the back catalog of Abrams, whose next album will be coming out on Blues Funeral soon.

We're back. Descriptions will be shorter. Maybe we won't have a new episode every week...maybe we will. Scott Evans from Kowloon Walled City and Antisleep Audio was a fantastic guess...kept us on track and off tangents, and has touched (teehee) so many past guests. Enjoy!
Oh...and bands...please put credits on your bandcamp. Production, art, whoever should be acknowledged, even if you did it all yourself. Carry on.

We had a lovely sit-down this week with Andy Gibbs, guitar player for Thou. Andy is a thoughtful chap and has been in the heavy game for a long time. We talked about how/why Thou has been so prolific, what it was like to record a Tiny Desk concert, working with friends on collaborations, playing festivals, and the true nature of Louisiana sludge (hint, it's not the swamp). Enjoy!
