Influences and New Music

[The Lurker]

What about Gomez? Abandoned Shopping Trolley Hotline has some cool stuff on it, and most of their other records are quite good too.

Yeah, Failure and my old band Medicine came up together, and Greg is a friend, and a monstrous player. We used to share a rehearsal studio. Ken (the singer/guitarist) is a very close friend, and I co-produced his latest solo record.

JMJ

Failure was such a great band. I really dig Magnified and Fantastic Planet, not to mention bootlegs with Troy Van Leeuwen on guitar - IMO, he added a great depth to their live sound.

 

[Malpractice]

Yeah I actually just noticed JMJ was thanked on the Fantastic Planet thank yous........

 

[thombo]

after doing some studio work for them, i was wondering what your take on Juan Alderete w/ the mars volta was? for the record, i dig both of your work w/ them.

also throwing fred smith out there...

Juan is sick. He took over for me in the LA band "Pet" that I was in for a minute. Great player, great person. We've also interacted when I remixed his band Big Sir. Inspiring to me.

While we're on the south of the border tip, I have to throw in Bomba Estereo, a new favorite of mine. Their new album makes me sweat while driving down the road!
