As I continue to recover (and prepare for a couple of procedures and impending surgery) from appendix issues, I’ve excitedly turned Car Con Carne over to guest hosts.

 

For this episode, Karen and Ivan from the Chicago bass duo Bellhead steal the keys to the car while I recover. Their guest is a post-punk legend, entrepreneur, author, and museum founder: the infamous Martin Atkins (Pigface, NIN, PiL). They recorded at Martin’s Museum of Post Punk and Industrial Music (natch) and discuss (among other things):

 

*Martin’s decision to perform Killing Joke’s “Extremities” in its entirety for the first time in 33 years at Reggies Rock Room on November 28th and 29th

*The cast of characters invited to take on this endeavor

*Martin’s early days with Killing Joke, including how some of the “Extremities” songs came to life.

*The creation of PPIM and updates, and why you should come visit.

 

Thanks for supporting Car Con Carne, especially during this weird period where I’m off the grid. Please support my guest hosts and their guests (go to Reggie’s or watch the live stream Thanksgiving weekend)! Thank you for listening and watching.
