SI #33 This is Tanya Elizabeth & Eddie DeCesare | Monochromatic Black
Tanya Elizabeth and Eddie DeCesare are benevolent souls: Kind people who give of their time and opinions and whom I am immensely impressed with as musicians and people. <br /><br />Monochromatic Black isn't just another 'female fronted' metal band. To be honest, I really don't like that Monochromatic Black is oftentimes compared to Jinjer or Arch Enemy, simply because both bands have women as front persons. <br /><br />I know everyone wants to have a reference point ahead of time when discovering new bands, and I've been guilty of it too, but these are people with their own style, and the band has its own sound, which sounds nothing like the bands people compare them to. I guess we all need a starting point when it comes to art, but it's my hope you'll dive a little deeper with me.<br /><br />Originally, we had a much different show prepared, but limits on time and availability (this was recorded during the holidays) kept us tight and didn't allow us to dive as deep as we'd hoped. I hope you'll give this band the attention they deserve, even if I didn't, simply because.... again.... they are super interesting, talented, and absolutely worth your time. <br /><br />All I know is that I had to have them on the show because they are truly special people to me. I'm hosting them today, because I want you to discover the band before they head out on tour at the beginning of the year. Before their schedules no longer allow them to work with the smaller guys like me. I want you to know what you're in for and who you're going to meet and listen to. I want you to know them, so here's your chance. <br /><br />Let's welcome these extraordinary talents. It makes me truly happy to have them on the show today. What a great way to end the year!<br /><br />Ladies and gentlemen, Tanya and Eddie from Monochromatic Black!!!<br /><br />----<br /><br />Time Codes:<br /><br />1:00 When interviewers ask the same dumb questions over and over<br />1:45 Bands and video games<br />3:30 When the talent overrides your curiosity<br />6:30 Tiring of comparisons<br />8:50 The progressive element of metal<br />10:50 The music and feel comes first<br />13:00 When Jinjer was a groove metal band<br />15:30 When we release music before it's ready<br />18:45 How does Monochromatic Black overcome being classified as a 'female fronted' metal band?<br />22:00 Meeting your heroes in person<br />24:00 The hardest parts of touring life<br />27:00 When it comes to gear, drummers have it the worst<br />30:30 Having interests outside of the band<br />33:00 Being in the right place when it matters<br />35:00 Knowing what you want to do, no matter what<br /><br />----<br /><br />I'm a former professional drummer hosting challenging conversations with other artists/creatives about mental health, new music, weekly news, and spiritual truths.<br /><br />Please consider supporting the show.<br /><br />Watch every UNCENSORED show here: https://www.patreon.com/thisissentimentalillness Copyright 2024 Sentimental Illness - All Rights Reserved<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sentimental-illness--6163498/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sentimental-illness--6163498/support</a>.

SI #30 This is Michel Teyssier | Fields of Næcluda
Let's get to the man of the hour, Michel Teyssier of Fields of Naecluda!<br /><br />Today on the show, we are digging deeper into the music I love the most. Today's featured artist (and his band) is a French progressive rock band that brings some of the most incredible and delicate music I've heard in quite some time. Now, when I say delicate, I don't mean soft. I mean musical choices where the ideas are there and the band, through compression and dynamics, feeds you this musical data one morsel at a time. <br /><br />If you're a fan of Porcupine Tree, Haken, Temic, or Dream Theater, I am 100% positive this band is for you. Incredibly performed and written, this could be, and SHOULD BE, your favorite new thing. I love love love it. .... and you will too.<br /><br />So...<br /><br />Ladies and gentlemen... dialing in all the way from the middle of Europe, this is my guest Michel Teyssier!<br /><br />----<br /><br />Time Codes:<br /><br />2:00 Gratitude for the vocal booth<br />6:00 Introducing Fields of Næcluda<br />10:00 Becoming a professional musician<br />14:00 Raising children to be independent<br />17:00 The order of releases and intent<br />21:00 Michel is where he needs to be right now<br />25:00 Working with a singer from Senegal<br />29:00 We are all the same<br />32:00 Proving something to himself<br />35:00 Does Michel have a drive to be remembered?<br />38:00 Michel is NOT preaching anything in his music<br />42:00 Leaving a musical legacy isn't all he cares about<br /><br />----<br /><br />MONOLOGUE: <br /><br />I'm in the process of recording another book, which is a how to... it's a different experience because it's hard to create something evocative that's basically a business how to book. So, that's been interesting figuring it all out. <br /><br />Being home more and working on auditions feels great, but I admit it also makes me feel, at times, kind of pathetic (i get it that it's my own experience as I'm not actually pathetic) because it never fails that the moment I take a break to eat or relax my voice, my family comes home and sees me sitting on the couch. Which... is just great. <br /><br />----<br /><br />I'm a former professional drummer hosting challenging conversations with other artists/creatives about mental health, new music, weekly news, and spiritual truths.

SI #29 This is Michael Decker | BornBroken
This band, BornBroken, is kind of everything for me.<br /><br />They are heavy, brutal, tight, incredibly well recorded, and everything is well written. Let's be honest... they are all the things.<br /><br />Today, I'm fortunate enough to have on the original of originals: The man behind the legacy of the band, Michael Decker. <br /><br />If you like hard hitting, straight in the middle of the gut, right down the middle of the alley, heavy music, with no punches pulled, then BornBroken is for you. So, let's get ready to mosh, baby.<br /><br />Calling in from the magical world of Quebec Canada, this is BornBroken's Michael Decker. Welcome brother!<br /><br />----<br /><br />Time Codes:<br /><br />5:00 What is a normal show, anyway?<br />9:30 Michael was a super independent kid<br />14:00 Art and design<br />19:00 Getting into arguments with family members<br />23:30 Seeing oneself as an artist first and foremost<br />28:00 If being normal is actually normal<br />32:00 Managing every aspect of the band<br />37:30 Christian Donaldson did the production work<br />42:00 Does Michael get tired of comparisons to Corey Taylor?<br />46:00 Pantera and Exhorder sound a lot alike<br />51:00 Writing about things that we were denied of<br />56:00 Hurting people and moving on as a better person<br />1:00:00 Who is Mike Decker, really?<br /><br />THANKS, AS ALWAYS, to Jon Asher from Asher Media (PR) for putting this interview together. You're the best, brother. <br /><br />----<br /><br />I'm a former professional drummer hosting challenging conversations with other artists/creatives about mental health, new music, weekly news, and spiritual truths.<br /><br />Watch every UNCENSORED show here: https://www.patreon.com/thisissentimentalillness <br /><br />Copyright 2024 Sentimental Illness - All Rights Reserved<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sentimental-illness--6163498/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sentimental-illness--6163498/support</a>.
