Create and Destroy

Episode 16-Alex Jones and Joel Thompson of Druse


Listen Later

In July of this year, Rochester, NY's Druse released their powerfully, thoughtful, and intense LP, Honey from the Rock. Although the album, nor Druse, is a religious endeavor or project, Honey from the Rock sees vocalist Alex Jones grapple and come to terms with his own faith, culture, and heritage as a Jewish person, steeping the album in themes and concepts drawn from Lawrence Kushner's book of the same name. In this episode, nestled beyond the Wall, in the frozen tundra of Rochester, NY, Dan sat down with Druse's vocalist Alex Jones and drummer Joel Thompson to discuss their band, Honey from the Rock, Kabbalah, and the fine hot dog establishment of Dogtown.
