Episode 7 - Alabama Deathwalk
Crack a beer & Rock & Roll with us! TN meets TX. Ride along on our conversation with the brilliant structural/sick-sounds engineer, Eric Reed of the magnificent Alabama Deathwalk as he tunes in from his Central Texas back porch. A very open air episode, sound-scapy, outside reverberations soaking in from the tree’s & up through the grass, highlighted in a way only tape can boys. We talk post-pandemic life adjustments, we talk soundtracks & methods to surviving mind-numbing work commutes, & we talk about his incredible art! Eric Reed describes in awesome detail some recording tricks they experimented with while recording his newest songs. Shouts outs to Earthquaker Devices! Of course, no episode would be complete without some shop talk about Nickelodeon. We talk about the joys of collaborating with other talented people on album artwork. We even veer off the road a bit into Eric’s wife’s very pleasant music. Amber Shirah’s album “Dreamglow” is a fantastic way to spend 16 minutes & 2 seconds! Matt was on Dad-Patrol, so you’ll hear his son’s opinion of our interview. Float on, Friends.
