39. 2018: DRUG CHURCH - 'CHEER' w/ ALEXEI TOLIOPOULOS

  • Summary

  • Okay, I do owe Alexei and you all an apology - I scanned through to find the sneezes so I could edit them out, but the episode was already late and I couldn't find them quickly so they stayed in. Sorry. But. Certified Movie Boy Alexei Toliopoulos gives us one of the best episodes yet, talking about Drug Church's amazing 2018 "sell out" record "Cheer." This is interesting in terms of looking at hardcore pre-COVID VS what we have now (the post-Glow On / Speed Supremacy era we're in). Some of the quotes, while totally correct for the time, have not played out to be true. "Selling Out" no longer seems to be an issue for punk and hardcore, and Drug Church are continuing to make exceedingly interesting music and getting paid to do so. I think Cheer was the turning point for these guys - their "JANE DOE" so to speak.


    Topics discussed: Birdeater, Dead Hands Dig Deep, The Decline Of Western Civilisation, bank jobs, culture delivered in pill form, stagediving.
