037: "Puppets" feat. Matt McGuyer & Alex Wallwork (Faerie Ring, Amblare)

This week I’m talking with MATT MCGUYER & ALEX WALLWORK of the Evansville, Indiana bands FAERIE RING & AMBLARE.On August 21, Faerie Ring will release their self-titled third album on KING VOLUME RECORDS. It was produced, engineered, & mixed by Tyler Watkins, Alex Kercheval, & Morgan Satterfield @ Postal Recording in Indianapolis & mastered @ Sound Artillery in Miami by Jonathan Nuñez of Torche. Two singles are out already, & -- in my opinion -- this record is the band’s best work yet. Pre-order links below.Across the month of July, they’re passing through Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, & Indiana, with hopefully some more dates in more cities later this year. Not to be missed.In 2024, Amblare released their self-titled debut on Melodic Virtue, & if you haven’t heard it, pause this & play that. (Link below.) The album features the late Bryan St. Pere’s final recorded drum work, & it’s a beautiful testament to his craft & personality behind the kit. His playing is the first thing you hear on the record, as it should be.In this episode, we discuss amplifier worship, crawling deeper into love, & vibrational empathy at the micro-scale.****FAERIE RING****"NEW GODS" VIDEO****"FATTEST WITCH" VIDEO****AMBLARE****EPISODE 001: AFTERNOON WITH THE AXOLOTLS****TIMESTAMPS:02:37 // "New Gods" (Faerie Ring)03:56 // Faerie Ring News11:15 // Live Show Ethos15:50 // New Singles & Videos24:07 // "Fattest Witch" (F.R.)25:32 // Amblare to Faerie Ring Chemistry32:45 // Hearing HUM, Meeting Bryan36:25 // BSP's Drum Approach42:38 // "Puppets" Discussion01:15:49 // What's Next01:20:27 // "Mine'd" (Amblare)****Support the show!**** Hosted on Acast.
