Nick & Tim helm a relatively new project called Disfigure. So far, they have just one tape release though they are working on more. Nick worked on many of the songs in relative isolation while living in New Hampshire and then recorded them with Tim once back in CT.
We start as usual talking about what we’re listening to. We recorded in October which lent itself to some opening talk about horror movies and bake off. We quickly veer into how the band started and what inspired it to happen; how they were inspired by Godflesh, d-beat and black metal to create their sound.
Conversation continues down that path and veers off until we finally trail off talking about the first Redscroll release after becoming a store, Hostage Calm‘s Lens – a record Tim is on and a band Nick later joined and also a band that bares little other connection to this current project sound-wise other than the people who made it. Anyway!Fantasy battle metal madness!
We are joined by a man, Byron Coley, who has more stories than we could fit into every past episode of our podcast and we surely packed as much as we could into a single sit down. We start off with some talk about what we’re listening to as usual and we move on to record fair talk (don’t forget about our Record Fair at Counter Weight Brewing Co. on October 13th featuring Byron selling upstairs!).
Byron tells tales of driving John Fahey around looking for classical records, his process for listening to 10 new records everyday, writing for weekly publications and magazines like the Wire, Forced Exposure, Spin and on and on. We talk about the label and store he runs with his friend Ted in Florence, Western Massachusetts.
We go back to his start writing a tour diary with Devo, but this is yet a scratch on the surface and this podcast is our longest yet for good reason! Check it out!
They are ready for a crowd! If you’d like to plan ahead you can check their sites at the links below!
“These are two of the most professional ready to rip trucks we work with and we are confident they can handle a busier day as they’ve both done our biggest events and have performed extremely well.”
“Meˈstēzō Grill always has many vegan/vegetarian options and we’ve asked them to have a few extra options that day. ” (both quotes from Matt at Counter Weight)
Once again we’ll have some of our favorite selectors on the decks at the fair; some familiar faces and some new!
