Avoiding Perfectionism & Staying Hungry: Keeping the Drive & Motivation of a Small Band as You Grow


Listen Later

German modern metal/hardcore band Half Me comes to the podcast with their debut album Soma due out February 17th, 2023. In this episode you will discover:

  • Why maintaining the drive and tenacity of a small band as you grow is important to keep achieving your goals in music.
  • That avoiding perfectionism and working against that mindset will help you make necessary decisions as a band.
  • Why placing a feature in an unconventional place on a song might be the best way to make it stand out, as long as it makes sense in the song.
  • Answering our Limp Bizkit question at the end is a fun idea.
