Episode 328: Khemmis

Phil from Khemmis joins us for a podcast that will have you intrigued from beginning to end. Khemmis is hitting the road with Trivium and Between the Buried & Me in fall 2022, so we talk about how their style of doom metal fits in well with both bands. We also talk about winning the crowd over as an opening band, scary stories about The Rave in Milwaukee and The Masonic Temple in Detroit, and how some venues and entertainment companies see music as a commodity and show a lack of respect to the artists (think taking a percentage of merch sales). This is one that will have you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end.   Find Khemmis Online: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/khemmisdoom Twitter: https://twitter.com/khemmisdoom Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/khemmisdoom/ YouTube: https://youtu.be/ArXF9cAa2XA Bandcamp: https://khemmis.bandcamp.com Merch: https://www.nightshiftmerch.com/collections/khemmis Website: https://khemmisdoom.com Tour Tickets: https://khemmisdoom.com/live/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5Dejhd4zYKEUm6q1FLr1ik?si=hi1p3BduQr-1XJpy2p-dVg Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/khemmis/1004631193   Get 20% OFF @manscaped + Free Shipping with promo code CPP at https://www.manscaped.com #ad #manscapedpod   We Are Sponsoring WHEN WE WERE HUNGRY FESTIVAL: https://whenwewerehungryfestival.com GET YOUR TICKETS NOW!   Follow us on social media!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chordprogressionpodcast   Twitter: https://twitter.com/cppodofficial   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chordprogressionpodcast/   Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chordprogressionpodcast   YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCqRKZCDMcFHIYbJaLQMfDbQ   Chord Progression Podcast (Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/show/53XWPGrIUvgavKF5Fm6SLk   Chord Progression Podcast (Apple Podcast): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chord-progression/id1454876657   Chord Progression Podcast (Amazon): https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b8dad803-444c-4a73-8aa5-67b4fc43f4ba   Chord Progression Podcast (iHeart Radio): https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-chord-progression-70632531/   Podcast Webpage: https://mysongoftheday.com/my-song-of-the-day-rock-2000-today/chord-progression-podcast/   Intro: (0:00) Welcome Phil of Khemmis: (5:34) Discovering New Bands by Going to Shows: (7:45) Always Giving It Your All Live: (10:45) How Khemmis matches with Trivium: (16:30) Their Milwaukee Show at The Rave: (28:56) Playing the Masonic Temple in Detroit: (31:00) Talking Positively about Detroit: (34:00) Local Scene, Independent Venues, Corporate Venues, Merch Cuts, Understanding it All: (39:00) Seeing Value in Where You're Playing: (49:40) Bringing this Conversation Full Circle: (57:50) Closing It Out: (1:03:04)
