Talking To Ghosts

Another entry in the Terminus Files! This time, we talked to 3Teeth! Discussed was the influence that Jennifer Lopez played on their highly acclaimed album, castle parties, and how not all guitar industrial is KMFDM. In the intro Michael and I reveal some of the things we almost called the podcast, and in the outro we set forth a mission for you, our dearest listeners.

Monday again! This week we bring to you fine folks one of our favorite projects - Chrysalide. We had the pleasure of talking to Chrysalide at Terminus Festival in Canada at 4am after their gig. It goes without saying that we were all very tired and in a hotel room where we had to be quiet!

We talk abou their new album, Personal Revolution , nice places to visit in France, and how industrial has taken over their lives.

Folks, there are a lotta people in this room. You got your Alter Der Ruines, you got your Hex-RXes, you got your Kevorkian Death Cycles, you got your Mr.Kitties, you got your Taurant Services and most of all you got your Negative Gain Productions.

We talked tape head cleaner, impossible names, name dropping and filling buckets full of puke. It is a nightmare of hilarity.

This week we bring you our second episode from the Terminus Files! 

To start you off, you have Wes's sleep-deprived brain comparing Canada to a break-in, followed by several quick talks with various Terminus attendees and bands, including W.A.S.T.E., Michael Jenny from Alter Der Ruine, Scott Fox from iVardensphere, and Daniel Myer. We also talk to the ladies who were working Terminus's merch booth and selling their art before moving into our sleep deprived outro!

Hopefully you have as much fun listening as we had recording it. We really wanted this episode to give a more rounded out view of what it was like to be at Terminus, and if we came even within a mile of that, we'll be happy.

Again, let us know what you think of the podcast; we're yet to receive any feedback! How we recorded the outro was unusual for this podcast, so we'd like to take this post as an opportunity to give shout outs to the people who shared us, including Jill from Take It For Granted and as always Bruce and Alex at I Die: You Die, who are constantly talking about us!

SO IT BEGINS.

This episode marks the first episode of the Terminus Files. In this episode, we talked to Bruce and Alex from I Die: You Die. THAT IS CORRECT! Podcast crossover has finally occured. We settled our wrestling beef, imitated the incomparible Daniel Myer, and discussed our pals favorite heel turns. This is not an episode you will want to miss.

If you want to help our podcast grow, one of the best ways you can do that is to subscribe on iTunes, rate on iTunes, and review on iTunes! Pretty much all of the big podcast aggregators just cop iTunes swag, so doing it there is about as good as doing it everywhere.

As always you can find us on Facebook, Twitter, and Patreon, and starting now you can also find our podcast on Tumblr, if you like to Tumbl.

For this special bonus episode we headed down to the Tonic Lounge to chat with some show goers, as well as James from Panic Lift and the Surgyn duo! It was a great time, and we got some good feedback from fans about how the show went.

Also in this episode: NO WRESTLING TALK. We had a great time feuding with Alex and Bruce at I Die: You Die, but we don't want to wear the bit into the ground. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, go back and listen to our earlier episodes, and the I Die: You Die podcast We Have A Technical!

Today we talked with Dan Weber, a local comedian here in Portland as well as a fellow podcaster. It was a long talk, so we were able to cover topics as varied as Jesus being a bottom, advanced math, obsessively training to kill people with your bare hands, Otherkin, religions founded by the 1% and Tom Cruise.

Oh, and comedy. I guess that got mentioned a bit.

Listen: we're sorry. Ross had a leather couch and it was squeakier than we expected. We talked to Wrahs about his new book Babette: The Many Lives, Two Deaths and Double Kidnapping of Dr. Ellsworth. We heard some hilarious stories, and a couple that were utterly terrifying. Also: we address the broiling feud between us and IDie:YouDie regarding their rassling talk. Who will win in this Podcast Tag Team Championship? Probably them. Almost certainly.

This week, on Talking To Ghosts we end our two week streak of bands who's names start with the word "Dead" by talking with Jon Horrid, owner of the Lovecraft Bar, a horror themed bar located in Portland, OR (NOT New York City, where only imposter Lovecraft Bars exist). Jon tells us about his collection of horror memorabilia, transitioning from punk and metal to industrial, and New York's industrial scene in the early 90's, and Michael and Wes discuss Kanye West's secret life as a zombie hunter.

Today we talk to Zach Wager from Dead Animal Assembly Plant. We discuss paranormal experiences, being weirdos in high school pre- and post-Columbine, and Wes inexplicabley defends Fred Phelps of God Hates Fags fame.
