Chelsea: Also at your last show in Scotland you played the track ‘DESTROYA’ for the first time live, which was dedicated to Grant Morrison. How much of an influence is he on the new album?

Gerard: Huge. He is a huge influence personally to me, too. I guess more importantly he is just a really close friend, he and his wife. I look up to them; I ask them for a lot of advice. He was a big influence on taking a chance with this record and kinda saying “Fuck it!”, but in a really good way. We are playing ‘DESTROYA’ again tonight. It’s gotten, I think, much bigger sounding.

Mikey: ‘DESTROYA’ is actually my favourite lightshow set! Grant’s one of the great thinkers and philosophers of his generation, he is one of the greats and just such a warm hearted and caring person and a huge influence on me and Gee and one of our closest friends.

Chelsea: Why is it you have a song named solely after Gerard’s character, Party Poison? Gerard: It’s just a good title really. “Death Before Disco”, the original title of the song, just didn’t feel right anymore. It didn’t feel like it was current.

 Chelsea: We asked a fan for a question and they wanted to know is Party Poison’s jacket influenced by Akira?

Gerard: Definitely! The iconography as well, I try and make it my own but it is definitely inspired by Akira.

Los Angeles progressive-pop, art-rockers ANTENNA THE END are excited to share their current advance single "Blah Blah Blah (Chameleon Sentences)" ahead of their forthcoming debut EP, scheduled for release in Fall of 2025! Boasting a bombastic groove and energetic beat, "Blah Blah Blah (Chameleon Sentences)" juxtaposes the moody lyrics of the track. Weaving a story of being overwhelmed by the “Chameleon Sentences / Blah Blah Blah" we face in our current socio-political climate, where everyone's an expert and has a burning desire to "Blah Blah Blah" their opinion, choosing to stand out by fitting in.

Sorry ... what was that? (Part 3 - Thank you. Goodnight.)

(Fight Like Apes) (Continued from Part 1 , here.) (Continued from Part 2, here.) THANK YOU! GOODNIGHT! During the years I combined writing for Artrocker magazine with my own Loud Horizon blog, I received in excess of 1500 promo copies of CD albums, EPs and singles. Every one was listened to with a view of reviewing. I resolved however, it was sometimes better to say (write) nothing at all…
