ENMY Talks New Radio Single "Incomplete" (Their Backstreet Boys Cover) | The Sound 228

Brady from ENMY joins Kevin, Lisa, and Matt to talk about the band's new radio single — a heavy, melodic rock reimagining of Backstreet Boys' "Incomplete" — how the cover came together on a whim during a tour drive, the pressure of taking on such a vocal-driven original, and what's ahead on their next album as they push toward catchier hooks while staying rooted in their heavier sound. Also this week: a new Grudge Match as We Are the Fire defends the win against Reign of Z's "The Wire," plus a look ahead to upcoming Sanctuary Biloxi shows including Rock the Halls for Mississippi Santa and the Rock the Bald childhood cancer benefit.

00:01:02 [Speaker 1]
And, now we'll let you two have the have the floor on what you've been listening to.

00:01:09 [Speaker 2]
Surely.
00:01:10 [Speaker 2]
I

00:01:10 [Speaker 3]
need to take it away.

00:01:11 [Speaker 2]
Do we even have to tell the people?
00:01:14 [Speaker 2]
In case you missed it, architects dropped a new single today called machine.
00:01:22 [Speaker 2]
Whatever you're doing right now after this podcast, go ahead.
00:01:27 [Speaker 2]
Go to Epitaph Records on YouTube and press play.
00:01:32 [Speaker 2]
Go to Spotify, whatever your streaming platform is.

00:01:35 [Speaker 2]
Go and listen to it.
00:01:36 [Speaker 2]
It is freaking phenomenal.
00:01:37 [Speaker 2]
They haven't released new music in about eighteen months, and they came back today with absolute filthy ass fire, and I am here for it.

00:01:46 [Speaker 4]
Oh, yeah.

00:01:47 [Speaker 3]
It's showing up properly now.

00:01:48 [Speaker 1]
It does show up the correct way on TikTok.
00:01:50 [Speaker 1]
I like it.
00:01:51 [Speaker 1]
But that

00:01:52 [Speaker 2]
Alright.
00:01:52 [Speaker 2]
That

00:01:53 [Speaker 3]
like, I I listened to I saw it dropped at 3PM my time, and I was like, bang, straight on Spotify.
00:01:58 [Speaker 3]
Please forgot about the music video.
00:01:59 [Speaker 3]
I was just too hyped.
00:02:01 [Speaker 3]
That that breakdown is absolutely disgusting.

00:02:05 [Speaker 1]
And I I will say right before the show, I said I hadn't listened to it yet.
00:02:09 [Speaker 1]
Lisa made me go watch it on YouTube.
00:02:11 [Speaker 1]
And, so I watched it, and I was not expecting that breakdown.
00:02:15 [Speaker 1]
And it it's so it's my type of song, and I have slowly become an Architects fan.
00:02:24 [Speaker 1]
I'm not a super fan like YouTube, but I have become a fan of Architects.

00:02:29 [Speaker 1]
Getting

00:02:29 [Speaker 3]
to see them at Rockville was really, really badass.
00:02:32 [Speaker 3]
But that type of song at the really, really love, but

00:02:38 [Speaker 1]
I was not expecting that breakdown in it.

00:02:40 [Speaker 2]
I felt like Sam Carter really just, you know, showed us his beautiful range on that

00:02:46 [Speaker 1]
song.
00:02:47 [Speaker 1]
I did not that voice, I did not

00:02:51 [Speaker 2]
Go listen

00:02:52 [Speaker 1]
to that.
00:02:52 [Speaker 1]
Not expect that.

00:02:53 [Speaker 2]
If you listen to Elegy, you will also hear a bit of that voice and, of course, Broken Mirror.
00:02:59 [Speaker 2]
But, yeah, he's he's got a beautiful voice, a gorgeous range, and, no one was expecting the breakdown with Nobla in it, but it

00:03:07 [Speaker 3]
was filthy.

00:03:09 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:03:09 [Speaker 1]
It was it

00:03:09 [Speaker 3]
was good.
00:03:10 [Speaker 3]
There's a very high pitched in it, but I think that this is gonna lead into something a lot heavier that we haven't heard from architects in a very long time.
00:03:25 [Speaker 3]
And I think listening to that, that's just a a little bit, like you say, like, Elegy with the with

00:03:31 [Speaker 2]
the Yeah.

00:03:32 [Speaker 3]
I think I think there may be one or two that go slightly heavier, and then I think we're gonna go back to proper heavy all our gods abandon us.
00:03:42 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.
00:03:43 [Speaker 3]
That's that's what I'm dealing.
00:03:45 [Speaker 3]
But the way they've done that breakdown in that, I was like, something big's come.

00:03:49 [Speaker 2]
Oh my god.
00:03:50 [Speaker 2]
It was just absolutely insane insane.
00:03:52 [Speaker 2]
So, Kevin, your turn.

00:03:56 [Speaker 1]
My turn.

00:03:57 [Speaker 3]
So

00:03:59 [Speaker 1]
I'm gonna go a one eighty on this, and I've been listening to the new album from Theory of a Dead Man.

00:04:07 [Speaker 2]
Oh.

00:04:07 [Speaker 1]
So No.
00:04:09 [Speaker 1]
Okay.
00:04:10 [Speaker 1]
Well, I mean, you'd I mean, you know, we we started playing prenup on the radio station, and that that's a song right up my alley.
00:04:17 [Speaker 1]
So it just, as a matter of fact, when I I was DJing a wedding Saturday, I asked Shelly, I said, should I play prenup?
00:04:24 [Speaker 1]
That'd be cool at the wedding.

00:04:26 [Speaker 1]
Should've signed a prenup.
00:04:28 [Speaker 1]
But now Yeah.
00:04:29 [Speaker 1]
She's like, don't cheat it.

00:04:31 [Speaker 3]
When we sent prenup for the chat, I think that was the week after it had released.

00:04:36 [Speaker 1]
Yes.

00:04:37 [Speaker 3]
And I actually almost added it the week before because it actually surprisingly, I actually really like that.

00:04:43 [Speaker 1]
It's it's it's actually I mean, you gotta I don't know how to how to say it.
00:04:51 [Speaker 1]
You you gotta you gotta when it comes to theory of a dead man, you gotta expect anything.

00:04:56 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.

00:04:56 [Speaker 1]
They've got songs that sound like country songs.
00:04:58 [Speaker 1]
They've got good really good rock songs and stuff like that.
00:05:02 [Speaker 1]
That one just kinda that I don't know.
00:05:05 [Speaker 1]
It goes right along with with Winnebago.
00:05:07 [Speaker 1]
So if that album's got prenup and Winnebago and monster truck and and and stuff like that.

00:05:13 [Speaker 1]
So, but the other one I'm looking forward to comes out on Friday, which is the new album from Plush.
00:05:21 [Speaker 1]
So getting to see them last last, last Wednesday and seeing them live and have an opportunity to chat with them a little bit.
00:05:30 [Speaker 1]
And it was the first time that I had seen Plush live where they did not do their cover of Barracuda.

00:05:37 [Speaker 2]
Oh.
00:05:37 [Speaker 2]
Which Oh, okay.

00:05:38 [Speaker 1]
Mariah just freaking nails Barracuda every single time.
00:05:42 [Speaker 1]
But they played it at Rocklahoma, but they said out on their own tour, they're not they're trying to get away from that.
00:05:48 [Speaker 1]
They want it to be geared towards their music.
00:05:51 [Speaker 1]
So Sure.
00:05:52 [Speaker 1]
But, you know, listening to Animalistic, and there were a couple other songs that they played off the album.

00:05:58 [Speaker 1]
And, Ashley, the bass player, actually sings, on one of the songs as the takes the lead on one of the songs on a new album, and it it was really shoot.
00:06:08 [Speaker 1]
They performed it live Wednesday night.
00:06:09 [Speaker 1]
It was, they said it was a surprise.
00:06:12 [Speaker 1]
I I don't think they were going to play it live, and they ended up playing it live.
00:06:16 [Speaker 1]
And it it went really well.

00:06:17 [Speaker 1]
So, it was very cool to, to see that.
00:06:21 [Speaker 1]
So I'm looking forward to the whole album just to just to hear that.
00:06:24 [Speaker 1]
But that's that's what I've been listening to.

00:06:25 [Speaker 2]
So, wait, so their album comes out on Friday?
00:06:28 [Speaker 2]
They've only released the one single?

00:06:30 [Speaker 3]
Yep.

00:06:31 [Speaker 2]
Okay.
00:06:32 [Speaker 2]
I wonder what they're thinking is

00:06:33 [Speaker 1]
behind that.
00:06:34 [Speaker 1]
I'm not arguing that point.
00:06:36 [Speaker 1]
I get it.
00:06:37 [Speaker 1]
It's it's it's weird for for the process of where music is these days to just release one single than an album.
00:06:47 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.

00:06:47 [Speaker 1]
But we'll we'll see how it goes.
00:06:48 [Speaker 1]
I think they're doing the old I think they're doing the old radio type thing where they're gonna release the album, but then they're gonna push singles to radio.
00:06:58 [Speaker 1]
So I

00:07:01 [Speaker 2]
I mean, they they they're basically doing, like, the opposite of what's happening now.

00:07:05 [Speaker 1]
Right.

00:07:05 [Speaker 2]
Which is you release single, single, single, single, single, and oh, here, by the way, here's a couple extra songs on our album.

00:07:10 [Speaker 4]
Yep.

00:07:10 [Speaker 2]
They're sort of doing the opposite, which is here's a song, here's the whole now, but now they have to go and sort of work in a different way.
00:07:18 [Speaker 2]
You know?
00:07:19 [Speaker 2]
Okay.
00:07:19 [Speaker 2]
For nine weeks, we're gonna do this song.
00:07:21 [Speaker 2]
For nine weeks, we're gonna do this song.

00:07:22 [Speaker 2]
So

00:07:23 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:07:23 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.

00:07:24 [Speaker 2]
We'll see what happens.
00:07:24 [Speaker 2]
I don't know what their strategy is, but I'm sure they have a team who does that.

00:07:28 [Speaker 1]
Yep.
00:07:28 [Speaker 1]
And it's called payment record.
00:07:30 [Speaker 1]
So

00:07:31 [Speaker 2]
It is.

00:07:31 [Speaker 1]
They'll they'll they'll handle that part of it.
00:07:34 [Speaker 1]

I will see them in a couple weeks too.

00:08:35 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.
00:08:35 [Speaker 2]
I you know, I saw them oh my gosh.
00:08:38 [Speaker 2]
When was, like, the next to last Blue Ridge Rock Festival that I went to

00:08:42 [Speaker 1]
Oh, wow.

00:08:43 [Speaker 2]
A long time ago.
00:08:44 [Speaker 2]
And before that, when I Prevail had come out with their cover of Blank Space, they went on a tour, and Star Set was their support.
00:08:55 [Speaker 2]
And so I saw them at Canal Club in Richmond a million years ago before anyone really knew who they were.
00:09:04 [Speaker 2]
So it was it was cool.

00:09:06 [Speaker 1]
About I I guess it was about four years ago, maybe three years ago, four years ago, they were ope they were opening up for Breaking Benjamin, and I saw them.
00:09:16 [Speaker 1]
And then, going on tour.
00:09:19 [Speaker 1]
And then going in October October 10, I'll be heading to Houston to see Breaking Benjamin and Chabelle and Star Set.
00:09:26 [Speaker 1]

00:09:55 [Speaker 1]
But I

00:09:56 [Speaker 2]
I think when you see them live, that will your mind will change.

00:09:59 [Speaker 1]
No.
00:09:59 [Speaker 1]
I've seen them live.
00:10:01 [Speaker 1]
And and still, there there's still a few songs that I'm just kinda like, okay.
00:10:05 [Speaker 1]
I mean, they're good.
00:10:06 [Speaker 1]
I mean, don't get me wrong.

00:10:09 [Speaker 1]
Any band that puts any effort into writing a song, they're good.
00:10:12 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:10:12 [Speaker 1]
I mean Whether it's my whether it's my cup of tea or not.
00:10:15 [Speaker 1]

anyways, that

00:15:57 [Speaker 1]
is a typical We Are the Fire.
00:15:59 [Speaker 1]
That is video number one in the grudge match.
00:16:02 [Speaker 1]
Such a good tune.
00:16:03 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:16:03 [Speaker 1]
Thank you.

00:16:04 [Speaker 1]
Good tune.

00:16:05 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.
00:16:05 [Speaker 2]
So Really good song.
00:16:06 [Speaker 2]
I've been playing that one a lot on my show.

00:16:08 [Speaker 1]
So the voting is now going to be open.
00:16:11 [Speaker 1]
So the voting on all the platforms, we we are able to see in our chat in our screen that we have here except for TikTok.
00:16:21 [Speaker 1]
TikTok.
00:16:22 [Speaker 1]
So I've got TikTok open up here.
00:16:24 [Speaker 1]
So if you comment in TikTok, I'll be able to see that as well.

00:16:27 [Speaker 1]
But it'll be video number one or video number two in the comments.
00:16:30 [Speaker 1]
Here is video number two.
00:16:32 [Speaker 1]
This is Rain of z, and it's the latest from them.
00:16:34 [Speaker 1]
It's called The Wire.
00:16:35 [Speaker 1]
It's the grudge match, and you're watching the sound.

00:17:01 [Speaker 5]
I never thought that I would fade into the sound.
00:17:05 [Speaker 5]
I've come to face a monster, which are still that far My hands are shaking, bottles breaking throat across the floor.
00:17:57 [Speaker 5]
So can I find my way out?
00:17:59 [Speaker 5]
Up?
00:17:59 [Speaker 5]
Was that

00:19:48 [Speaker 1]
Alright.
00:19:48 [Speaker 1]
You two give me a second because I wasn't paying attention totally and didn't unmute everybody but myself, so I'd made sure I didn't look like a freaking idiot when I came out of it.
00:19:57 [Speaker 1]
But, anyway, so you guys are muted now.
00:19:59 [Speaker 1]
So

00:20:00 [Speaker 3]
There we go.

00:20:02 [Speaker 1]
And I was doing some research, and I think next week or not next week, but the next episode, we will have a change.
00:20:10 [Speaker 1]
And because I just found out in our system that we use, we can put a poll on the screen and people can vote.

00:20:17 [Speaker 2]
Oh, that would be great.

00:20:19 [Speaker 1]
So we will be able to, do that starting the next episode.

00:20:25 [Speaker 4]
I

00:20:25 [Speaker 1]
gotta figure out how I gotta figure out how to build it, but it I just happened to glance over and I saw a a widgets, thing on the side.
00:20:32 [Speaker 1]
And I was like, oh, what are the what are the widgets?
00:20:35 [Speaker 1]
And you gotta create a widget, but and you gotta create the poll offside on a website or off-site and then insert it into the widget.
00:20:43 [Speaker 1]
But, yeah, we'll be able to do grudge match and all that kind of stuff, back back to the poll.
00:20:50 [Speaker 1]
Because we we for those that don't know, we used to do a poll, but it was strictly on Facebook.

00:20:56 [Speaker 1]
So it kind of alienated the the YouTube and the x viewers and Yeah.
00:21:02 [Speaker 1]
And Twitch viewers and stuff like that.
00:21:03 [Speaker 1]
But now we're gonna be able to do it where everybody can vote on screen in the chat, whatever.
00:21:08 [Speaker 1]
So we'll figure it out, but it's gonna be

00:21:09 [Speaker 3]
I just got one thing to say before we bring the guest in.
00:21:13 [Speaker 3]
Okay.
00:21:13 [Speaker 3]

That'd be fun.

00:21:50 [Speaker 1]
I I'll I like that that band.
00:21:53 [Speaker 1]
I I haven't the last time I saw him live was the night before, Rock on the Hill.
00:22:00 [Speaker 1]
Last year.
00:22:01 [Speaker 1]
I went and saw them in the Almas together.

00:22:05 [Speaker 3]
Well, I was I was supposed to be touring with them.

00:22:09 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.

00:22:10 [Speaker 3]
After that tour.

00:22:12 [Speaker 2]
During the monsoon at this year's Rock on the Hill, I was behind stage, and Zosia just happened to be right next to me.
00:22:19 [Speaker 2]
So me and her chatted for, like, the hour, while all of us, and I know enemy can say the same, we were all stuffed underneath the backstage waiting for the monsoon to clear.
00:22:30 [Speaker 2]
So we got a lot of good chat time in.
00:22:32 [Speaker 2]
She's an absolute doll.
00:22:33 [Speaker 2]
I really enjoyed my conversation with her.

00:22:36 [Speaker 1]
Nice.
00:22:36 [Speaker 1]
So we are going to, bring in enemy right now.
00:22:40 [Speaker 1]
Yes.
00:22:41 [Speaker 1]
Trevor and Brady are with us tonight.
00:22:44 [Speaker 1]
Let's see.

00:22:45 [Speaker 1]
There's Trevor, and here comes Brady.
00:22:47 [Speaker 1]
There we are.
00:22:49 [Speaker 1]
Gentlemen.

00:22:52 [Speaker 4]
Alright.
00:22:53 [Speaker 4]
I

00:22:54 [Speaker 1]
think can you both hear him?
00:22:55 [Speaker 1]
I can hear you.
00:22:58 [Speaker 1]
Okay.
00:22:58 [Speaker 1]
I think, Trevor, we might be having an issue on your end.
00:23:04 [Speaker 1]
Brady, can you hear me?

00:23:06 [Speaker 4]
Okay.

00:23:06 [Speaker 2]
Okay.
00:23:09 [Speaker 2]
Okay.
00:23:10 [Speaker 2]
K.

00:23:10 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:23:10 [Speaker 4]
You might

00:23:11 [Speaker 1]
I don't know where that's coming from.

00:23:13 [Speaker 2]
If he's on his phone, that's where it's coming from.

00:23:18 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.
00:23:19 [Speaker 3]
It's coming from Trevor.

00:23:21 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.
00:23:21 [Speaker 2]
Oh, I'm sorry, Trevor.

00:23:25 [Speaker 1]
So we'll we'll Trevor will hop back in.
00:23:27 [Speaker 1]
We'll do we'll try it again.
00:23:28 [Speaker 1]
But, Brady, I think this is, what, your third or fourth time being a a a guest on the sound?

00:23:34 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:23:35 [Speaker 4]
That and I I don't know.
00:23:36 [Speaker 4]
The, the times that I've seen you in person, I feel like they're all blending together.

00:23:40 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:23:40 [Speaker 1]
Right.
00:23:40 [Speaker 1]
Right.
00:23:40 [Speaker 1]
Right.

00:23:41 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.

00:23:41 [Speaker 1]
But I don't know if you saw it, but I did wear it tonight.

00:23:45 [Speaker 4]
Love it.

00:23:45 [Speaker 1]
Love it.

00:23:45 [Speaker 4]
Love it.
00:23:45 [Speaker 4]
Love it.
00:23:46 [Speaker 4]
Thank you.

00:23:49 [Speaker 1]
So let's let's chat for a minute, man.
00:23:52 [Speaker 1]
So we're getting the opportunity, and I saw you guys live.
00:23:56 [Speaker 1]
I don't know.
00:23:57 [Speaker 1]
God.
00:23:58 [Speaker 1]
When was that?

00:23:58 [Speaker 1]
Like, six months ago at the sanctuary in Biloxi?
00:24:02 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:24:02 [Speaker 1]
Maybe maybe even longer than that.
00:24:04 [Speaker 1]
But, and you guys played incomplete that night, and I absolutely love the version of incomplete that you guys have.
00:24:15 [Speaker 1]
But I wanna get into it a little bit of what made you guys choose incomplete?

00:24:25 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:24:26 [Speaker 4]
So we always kinda toss the idea around of of doing a cover song, and we never we're like, you know, what what would be the right one to do?
00:24:35 [Speaker 4]
Would it be something that already sounds like our band?
00:24:38 [Speaker 4]
Would it be something that lyrically makes sense for this type of stuff that we usually do?
00:24:45 [Speaker 4]
And we're actually coming back from playing with Josie Scott, in Arkansas.

00:24:51 [Speaker 4]
And, our guitarist had his his phone on shuffle, and that song comes up.
00:24:57 [Speaker 4]
And, I mean, I'm not gonna turn down, like, a boy band song.
00:25:01 [Speaker 4]
And, I was like, I I can I can turn it off if you want?
00:25:04 [Speaker 4]
And I'm like, no.
00:25:04 [Speaker 4]
Let it play.

00:25:05 [Speaker 4]
I've never heard it.
00:25:06 [Speaker 4]
So, the rest of us, it was our first time hearing it.
00:25:10 [Speaker 4]
And we were like, man, this could easily, like, be turned into a rock, like, version of this song.
00:25:17 [Speaker 4]
And we were thinking, like, something along the lines of, like, Nickelback or Avenged Sevenfold, just like a big anthemic, like, rock song.
00:25:25 [Speaker 4]
Right.

00:25:26 [Speaker 4]
So yeah.
00:25:27 [Speaker 4]
I mean, we we were like that was the first time that we've ever agreed on a cover song.

00:25:34 [Speaker 1]
I'm gonna ask this, and I'm a let Lisa and Matt have their have their say in everything.
00:25:39 [Speaker 1]
The original is so extremely vocal driven.
00:25:43 [Speaker 1]
When you were doing this song and when you do it live, do you feel any pressure taking on taking on that melody that a lot of people already knew?

00:25:54 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:25:54 [Speaker 4]
I don't know.
00:25:55 [Speaker 4]
It's it's kinda funny because I've made this comment multiple times before.
00:25:59 [Speaker 4]
Like, we played it on that tour.
00:26:02 [Speaker 4]
I feel like I'm gonna upset the females in the crowd by not doing it justice.

00:26:06 [Speaker 4]
But I feel like nine times out of 10, I look out into the crowd and it's guys singing it back to me.
00:26:12 [Speaker 4]
So it's like, I'm surprised that they know it or if they didn't know that it was a cover song or whatever.
00:26:17 [Speaker 4]
But, but, yeah, I don't know.
00:26:20 [Speaker 4]
I just kind of, like, go up there and and do my best.
00:26:22 [Speaker 4]
And if, you know, if I mess up some notes, so be it.

00:26:27 [Speaker 4]
You know, it's, you know, it's real.
00:26:30 [Speaker 4]
So, yeah, I don't know.
00:26:31 [Speaker 4]
I I enjoy the song, and I feel like the times that we have played it, people have enjoyed it.
00:26:35 [Speaker 4]
So, hopefully, I'm doing it justice.

00:26:38 [Speaker 1]
I will say this.
00:26:40 [Speaker 1]
You absolutely crush it.

00:26:42 [Speaker 4]
Thank you.

00:26:43 [Speaker 1]
And it vocally, you absolutely hit the nail on the head with it.
00:26:51 [Speaker 1]
So that's just my humble opinion on it.

00:26:55 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.
00:26:55 [Speaker 3]
I'll I'll have an opinion because everyone on this screen knows how I feel about cover songs.

00:26:59 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.

00:27:00 [Speaker 3]
Oh, shit.

00:27:01 [Speaker 2]
How are you?

00:27:02 [Speaker 3]
Let's have a

00:27:02 [Speaker 1]
chat.
00:27:02 [Speaker 1]
Brady.

00:27:04 [Speaker 3]
Now it's like you say, though, it's finding that what what's gonna fit?
00:27:08 [Speaker 3]
What can you do to like, because for me, a cover song, I'm not a fan of people covering it like rock covering rock.
00:27:14 [Speaker 3]
It's it just doesn't make sense.
00:27:16 [Speaker 3]
Why would you cover something that probably sounds like the same as you?
00:27:21 [Speaker 3]
But it's taking that song that's out of that genre and making it your own, and I can tell you with incomplete, it ticks all my boxes.

00:27:30 [Speaker 4]
Cool.
00:27:30 [Speaker 4]
Thank you.
00:27:31 [Speaker 4]
I appreciate it.

00:27:31 [Speaker 3]
I think you smashed it.
00:27:32 [Speaker 3]
I think you smashed it.
00:27:33 [Speaker 3]
I think it's you've you've you've turned you've taken that song.
00:27:36 [Speaker 3]
And like you say, you're going out there and whether you hit the notes or whatever you might learn about.
00:27:40 [Speaker 3]
But you've taken that song and you've made it envy song now.

00:27:45 [Speaker 3]
You know?
00:27:46 [Speaker 3]
Cool.
00:27:46 [Speaker 3]
And that's that's what you

00:27:47 [Speaker 4]
do with

00:27:47 [Speaker 3]
the other song is all about in my opinion.
00:27:49 [Speaker 3]
It's it's taking something from someone else who's, you know and and respecting that song and that artist, but turning it into something that's you.
00:27:58 [Speaker 3]
And I think you absolutely nailed that one.
00:28:01 [Speaker 3]
Cool.

00:28:01 [Speaker 4]
Thank you.
00:28:01 [Speaker 4]
I appreciate that.
00:28:02 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:28:02 [Speaker 4]
I mean, that was one of the things, you know, you you talked about checking boxes.
00:28:06 [Speaker 4]
That was one of the things for me is, like, would it be something that I would lyrically write?

00:28:11 [Speaker 4]
And, you know, listening to it, I was watching just, you know, like, verse to verse, chorus to chorus.
00:28:19 [Speaker 4]
I'm like, okay.
00:28:19 [Speaker 4]
This is along like, this is in our vein of what we would do.
00:28:23 [Speaker 4]
Because I don't wanna I don't wanna do something, like, and that's not to say that we wouldn't do another cover song, but I didn't want it to be, like, a party song.
00:28:31 [Speaker 4]
You know what I mean?

00:28:31 [Speaker 4]
Like, something worth that's just kind of, like, droning lyrics that you don't really pay attention to.
00:28:37 [Speaker 4]
So that's what I liked I enjoyed about that song.

00:28:40 [Speaker 3]
And it's There's some tough songs that have the lone back.
00:28:43 [Speaker 3]
Look at I prevailed.

00:28:45 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:28:45 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.

00:28:45 [Speaker 3]
It was blank space that rocketed them to where they are now.

00:28:49 [Speaker 4]
Mhmm.
00:28:49 [Speaker 4]
You know?

00:28:51 [Speaker 2]
Well, at least if you were in.

00:28:52 [Speaker 3]
Doing it right.
00:28:53 [Speaker 3]
It's doing it justice and doing it as you would as a band yourself.
00:28:58 [Speaker 3]
You know?
00:28:58 [Speaker 3]
If you wrote that song as and me, that's how it would sound.

00:29:02 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.

00:29:03 [Speaker 2]
I'm I'm curious.
00:29:04 [Speaker 2]
What do you think the that the Backstreet Boys would think of it?

00:29:08 [Speaker 4]
I mean, hopefully, they, at least get a a kick out of it.
00:29:12 [Speaker 4]
I don't know.
00:29:12 [Speaker 4]
I feel like it's hard to, kinda put yourself in that in their shoes and it's like, okay.
00:29:19 [Speaker 4]
What would, you know, what would they think somebody covering their song?
00:29:23 [Speaker 4]
I don't know.

00:29:24 [Speaker 4]
They probably see it all the time.
00:29:25 [Speaker 4]
But, yeah, if they have checked it out and I know that, like, on, TikTok, especially, people have been tagging them left and right.
00:29:35 [Speaker 4]
So at least somebody might have seen it.
00:29:38 [Speaker 4]
But yeah.
00:29:38 [Speaker 4]
No.

00:29:39 [Speaker 4]
I I saw that it was kind of, like, perfect timing as well because we released that.
00:29:43 [Speaker 4]
And then I started seeing some stuff about them playing at the Sphere, in Vegas.
00:29:48 [Speaker 4]
So I'm like, oh, maybe that'll but who knows?
00:29:51 [Speaker 4]
Drum up some, some interest.

00:29:54 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.
00:29:54 [Speaker 2]
That's really cool, though.
00:29:55 [Speaker 2]
It looks like though that maybe their fans are responding.
00:29:59 [Speaker 2]
Have you seen have you seen a lot of love from the fans?

00:30:03 [Speaker 4]
And, you know, it's it's a risk that you take when you, when you go and cover a song like that.
00:30:09 [Speaker 4]
It's like, you don't wanna, piss off the diehards.
00:30:13 [Speaker 4]
I actually have two two friends, two very close friends, that went and saw them in Vegas as well.
00:30:19 [Speaker 4]
And they're like, you guys, your your version kills it.
00:30:21 [Speaker 4]
So and that's overwhelmingly positive feedback from people that have commented on the on the cover song.

00:30:28 [Speaker 4]
And some that they're like, oh, I love this song, and they have no idea that it's a cover.
00:30:31 [Speaker 4]
So I think that's that's a good a good angle as well.

00:30:35 [Speaker 2]
Right.
00:30:35 [Speaker 2]
Because no one actually wants to go to listen to a band perform a cover song, and it sounds like karaoke.
00:30:40 [Speaker 2]
You know?
00:30:41 [Speaker 2]
No one wants that.
00:30:42 [Speaker 2]
So, Kevin, why don't we go ahead?

00:30:45 [Speaker 2]
We've got it.
00:30:46 [Speaker 2]
Right?

00:30:47 [Speaker 1]
We do.
00:30:47 [Speaker 1]
We do.

00:30:48 [Speaker 2]
Why don't we

00:30:50 [Speaker 1]
I've only been unprepared one time for you guys.
00:30:53 [Speaker 1]
I've only been unprepared one time.
00:30:56 [Speaker 1]
So, yes, we have the video.
00:30:57 [Speaker 1]
Let's roll into it, and then we'll talk a little bit more about other things that are going on, with NME as well.
00:31:04 [Speaker 1]
But here is incomplete.

00:31:05 [Speaker 1]
Check it out.
00:31:06 [Speaker 1]
Put it in the comments what you think.
00:31:08 [Speaker 1]
Let us know.
00:31:09 [Speaker 1]
And, if you have a question for Brady and, put them in the comments too.
00:31:14 [Speaker 1]
We'll we'll definitely let you guys be a part of the show as well.

00:31:17 [Speaker 1]
But here is enemy.
00:31:18 [Speaker 1]
It is incomplete, and you're watching the sound.
00:31:40 [Speaker 1]
Empty spaces fill me up with holes, distant faces with no place left to go.
00:31:53 [Speaker 1]
Without you within me, I can't find no rest where Alright.
00:35:13 [Speaker 1]
There you have it.

00:35:14 [Speaker 1]
That is incomplete from enemy while I unmute everybody.
00:35:17 [Speaker 1]
Sorry.
00:35:18 [Speaker 1]
There we go.
00:35:18 [Speaker 1]
Alright.
00:35:19 [Speaker 1]
Now now now everybody can chat and, like I said, a beautiful, beautiful version of that song.

00:35:26 [Speaker 1]
And, It is.

00:35:27 [Speaker 3]
It is.

00:35:28 [Speaker 1]
Great job.

00:35:29 [Speaker 2]
Well, it is.
00:35:30 [Speaker 2]
And not only that, but I think it's really important to understand that we're talking to a metal core artist who just covered the Backstreet Boys.
00:35:38 [Speaker 2]
I mean, music is transcendent.
00:35:40 [Speaker 2]
Right?
00:35:40 [Speaker 2]
We all were listening to different things when we were growing up.

00:35:43 [Speaker 2]
We've all have guilty pleasures or other bands that maybe people wouldn't expect.
00:35:48 [Speaker 2]
And I love when I hear a band as heavy as Enemy come out with a ballad and something literally so so gentle.
00:35:55 [Speaker 2]
You know, you get to really show off those melodic vocals, and I think it sounds great.
00:35:59 [Speaker 2]
I think you guys did a really nice job.

00:36:01 [Speaker 1]
Here here here come here comes a comment that I think so I love the Backstreet Boys, but I'd listen to this over theirs 100% of the time all the time.
00:36:10 [Speaker 1]
Well done and great vocals.

00:36:12 [Speaker 3]
Nice.
00:36:12 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.

00:36:13 [Speaker 4]
Thank you.

00:36:14 [Speaker 3]
There we go.

00:36:15 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.
00:36:15 [Speaker 2]
I mean I appreciate it.
00:36:17 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.
00:36:17 [Speaker 2]
I I love when a heavier artist comes and they still just slow it down for a second.
00:36:22 [Speaker 2]
You know, whether it's you know, and they can show off their range or their other capabilities.

00:36:26 [Speaker 2]
You know?
00:36:26 [Speaker 2]
That way you're not always you know, enemy has a lot of melodic vocals anyway, but still, I like to hear something slower from you.
00:36:33 [Speaker 2]
So I think it was a great choice.
00:36:35 [Speaker 2]
Really well done.
00:36:36 [Speaker 2]
Thank you.

00:36:37 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.
00:36:37 [Speaker 2]
Thank you.
00:36:37 [Speaker 2]
I like it.

00:36:39 [Speaker 4]
Thank you.
00:36:39 [Speaker 4]
Appreciate it.
00:36:40 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:36:41 [Speaker 4]
I no.
00:36:42 [Speaker 4]
I think with with it's a nice, segue into the stuff that we're working on now, because we are kind of, like, pivoting or kind of, bringing in more elements like that where it's, like, you know, leaning into, the compression of the microphone and hopefully, that works out just because we're doing, like, a lot more, softer stuff, just expanding, on the range of everything and, still staying heavy, but also just, like, getting more melodic and doing other cool stuff.

00:37:15 [Speaker 4]
Just kind of, like, getting mentally outside of the box.
00:37:17 [Speaker 4]
And, I feel like that's gonna show through on this on this new album that we're working on.

00:37:22 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:37:22 [Speaker 1]
That that actually I think you just answered my next question because I was gonna talk about, the mixes that you have with the heavy music, the huge hooks, the electronic elements, and how to how the sound evolved since the early days of Enemy, but I think you kinda kinda answered that already.

00:37:40 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:37:40 [Speaker 4]
I mean, to that point, I feel like this new album that we're working on, we, you know, I feel like we have that that foundation of, yeah, we like staying heavy.
00:37:51 [Speaker 4]
We like, you know, those elements.
00:37:54 [Speaker 4]
But we were like, you know, what would it sound like if we just made, like, the catchiest, like, poppiest hooks that we could and see what happens with that?
00:38:02 [Speaker 4]
I mean, we it's still, like, rock.

00:38:05 [Speaker 4]
But, yeah, there are parts where we're, like, experimenting more.
00:38:10 [Speaker 4]
So, yeah, I think it's I think some of this stuff is, like, the catchiest stuff that we've ever done.
00:38:15 [Speaker 4]
I think the sky's the limit for some of this new content.

00:38:18 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.
00:38:19 [Speaker 3]
And and it's all about evolution.
00:38:21 [Speaker 3]
You know?
00:38:22 [Speaker 3]
It's it's a lot of architects so much because none none of their past albums sound exactly like one another.
00:38:28 [Speaker 3]
You know?

00:38:28 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.
00:38:29 [Speaker 3]
It's evolving that sound and just, you know, writing what you wanna write, basically.

00:38:35 [Speaker 1]
So And where

00:38:36 [Speaker 3]
where the music comes from.
00:38:37 [Speaker 3]
I've got a I've got a question about incomplete.
00:38:40 [Speaker 3]
Now doing a cover song, is there a process that you have to go through before you can cover that with, like, copyright legalities or anything like that?
00:38:49 [Speaker 3]
Or is it just, yeah, we're gonna copy that and bam, we're done?

00:38:53 [Speaker 4]
We just said pull the trigger and to have really, it just, we just kind of I, you know, I think we asked our producers about some of that.
00:39:04 [Speaker 4]
And one of the guys that we work with is in Hyper Vail.
00:39:07 [Speaker 4]
So he was Right.
00:39:08 [Speaker 4]
He kind of had new had some of the the, inside baseball for us.
00:39:12 [Speaker 4]
So we're, you know, he's like, yeah.

00:39:14 [Speaker 4]
I think it's I think you're good.
00:39:15 [Speaker 4]
You just have to take these steps, and it was all good.

00:39:18 [Speaker 1]
I mean, you have to I'm I'm sure it's you have to make sure that the the proper writing credits and all of that are given and and all of that kind of stuff.
00:39:26 [Speaker 1]
So, I think they've made it easier, just seeing some of the stuff on the back end of some things.
00:39:34 [Speaker 1]
I think it's been made easier for bands to be able to cover songs, than it was in the past by getting permission from the artists and things like that.
00:39:43 [Speaker 1]
Now it's more of when you when you publish it, make sure all the writing credits are done correctly and all of that.
00:39:49 [Speaker 1]
So everybody who's gonna get paid and it's not it's not like the whole, Nine Inch Nails Limp Bizkit thing where they used a majority of one of Nine Inch Nails' songs, and and they had to you y'all know that story.

00:40:03 [Speaker 1]
Right?
00:40:04 [Speaker 1]
No.
00:40:04 [Speaker 1]
So I mean, I know.
00:40:05 [Speaker 1]
I I can't remember.
00:40:06 [Speaker 1]
It's one of Limp Bizkit songs.

00:40:09 [Speaker 4]
If Trevor was here, he would be on it right away.
00:40:11 [Speaker 4]
It's it's it's it's

00:40:13 [Speaker 1]
the one where they I mean, I can't remember the name of the damn song, but it's it's like the word fuck is like every other word in the song.
00:40:20 [Speaker 1]
But he's one of Reznor the entire time and uses enough nine inch nails lyrics that Trent Reznor sued him for the copyrights on it.
00:40:32 [Speaker 1]
So now Trent Reznor gets paid for a song that was dissing him the entire time.

00:40:39 [Speaker 2]
Good for Trent Reznor.

00:40:41 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.
00:40:41 [Speaker 3]
Too right.

00:40:42 [Speaker 2]
Damn right.
00:40:44 [Speaker 2]
So

00:40:45 [Speaker 1]
but, anyways, I mean, that but that's what I'm saying.
00:40:48 [Speaker 1]
I think I think with the with the way that they that the publishing is done now, it's just a whole lot easier, to give the people the proper credit.
00:40:57 [Speaker 1]
I think now, of course, if you release it and somebody goes on Spotify and looks at the writing credits and stuff like that and they're not they're not on it, then it becomes a problem.
00:41:05 [Speaker 1]
But if all the credits are there and I think most artists, they're like, sure.
00:41:10 [Speaker 1]
I'll take some more money.

00:41:12 [Speaker 1]
Right.
00:41:12 [Speaker 1]
So I mean not nothing nothing wrong with it.
00:41:16 [Speaker 1]
So, so you guys signed with fixed in 2023.
00:41:20 [Speaker 1]
Correct?

00:41:22 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:41:22 [Speaker 4]
I believe it was around 2023.

00:41:24 [Speaker 1]
Okay.
00:41:25 [Speaker 1]
So my question is is what has fixed made it easier to do than when you were an independent artist?

00:41:37 [Speaker 4]
I mean, they do take a lot they take care of a lot of the like you said, with the, with uploading songs to,

00:41:45 [Speaker 3]
The distribution?
00:41:46 [Speaker 3]
Getting.

00:41:47 [Speaker 4]
Do what?

00:41:48 [Speaker 2]
Distribution.

00:41:49 [Speaker 4]
Distribution, and then, like, make sure make sure making sure all of those credits go to who they need to go to.
00:41:57 [Speaker 4]
So a lot of the, like, clerical, type of stuff like that.
00:42:02 [Speaker 4]
And just kind of, like, you know, being a a big supporter of the group, making sure that we're staying on track with all of the upcoming interviews and, artwork and submissions for everything.
00:42:17 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:42:17 [Speaker 4]
They I mean, they just kind of, like they're supporters, but they're also, like, just as much a part of the band as as we are.

00:42:27 [Speaker 4]
So it's it's pretty cool just to see them, like like, answer the call and and, do what they need to do to get everything get the ball rolling and, keep the keep the machine going.
00:42:39 [Speaker 4]
So Is

00:42:39 [Speaker 3]
it is it opened a lot more doors for you?
00:42:42 [Speaker 3]
Because I think, like, being an independent artist, like, you can go and you can go and you can go so far, but there's there's a certain ceiling and, like,

00:42:49 [Speaker 1]
being Yes.
00:42:51 [Speaker 1]
It it just For sure.

00:42:52 [Speaker 3]
Opens up those doors for you.
00:42:54 [Speaker 3]
Is it is it opened up a hell of a lot more opportunities for and me?

00:42:57 [Speaker 4]
I mean, yeah.
00:42:58 [Speaker 4]
I mean, even stuff that I am probably not even aware of.
00:43:03 [Speaker 4]
Just and it's it's kind of, like, it's kinda interesting how that works as well, just being associated with that label.
00:43:10 [Speaker 4]
So if somebody checks out somebody on that label, they're like, oh, the Browning or CellDweller or, you know, Scandoid or whoever.
00:43:19 [Speaker 4]
They they're like, oh, what label are they on?

00:43:22 [Speaker 4]
They click on it.
00:43:22 [Speaker 4]
They go to their website.
00:43:23 [Speaker 4]
They look at the roster.
00:43:24 [Speaker 4]
They stumble upon us.
00:43:26 [Speaker 4]
So it's like, you know, it's kind of one of those things.

00:43:30 [Speaker 4]
But also it's like yeah.
00:43:32 [Speaker 4]
I mean, you you never really know where how how that stuff's gonna get mixed in and and, they discover a new band.
00:43:41 [Speaker 4]
So

00:43:42 [Speaker 3]
That's all.
00:43:42 [Speaker 3]
I think I think we use as as at at the sound need to email fixed, and we need to arrange somehow an NME and Daedric tour.
00:43:51 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.

00:43:52 [Speaker 2]
Only only if Izzy Raine is opening.

00:43:56 [Speaker 3]
Right.
00:43:56 [Speaker 3]
There we go.
00:43:57 [Speaker 3]
Just sign

00:43:58 [Speaker 4]
me up.
00:43:59 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:43:59 [Speaker 4]
I unfortunately, I missed Izzy Raine's set.
00:44:01 [Speaker 4]
We played upheaval.
00:44:03 [Speaker 4]
We played earlier on in the day.

00:44:05 [Speaker 4]
So, hopefully, I inhaled all a lot of that smoke for her her so she had a clearer, clearer day to play.

00:44:12 [Speaker 2]
But

00:44:13 [Speaker 4]
yeah.
00:44:13 [Speaker 4]
No.
00:44:13 [Speaker 4]
I I would have loved to have seen her.
00:44:16 [Speaker 4]
We played Upheaval, and then the next day we played Incarceration.
00:44:19 [Speaker 4]
But yeah.

00:44:20 [Speaker 4]
No.
00:44:20 [Speaker 4]
It's it's always, like, a big love fest because I go up to Grand Rapids all the time to record, with Nick.

00:44:27 [Speaker 2]
Right.

00:44:27 [Speaker 4]
And, yeah, they live in the same spot.
00:44:30 [Speaker 4]
So it's like Yes.
00:44:31 [Speaker 4]
I we have to we have to hang out.
00:44:32 [Speaker 4]
We have to get Dairy Queen.
00:44:33 [Speaker 4]
We have to I try to convince them to go to I don't even know how to say it, the restaurant anymore.

00:44:39 [Speaker 4]
I I call it Akiyakis.
00:44:41 [Speaker 4]
It's like use ucellos or ucellos.
00:44:43 [Speaker 4]
I don't know how to say it.

00:44:44 [Speaker 2]
I don't know.

00:44:46 [Speaker 4]
But yeah.
00:44:47 [Speaker 4]
No.
00:44:47 [Speaker 4]
I that's just a a little, a little nugget for them in case they watch this.

00:44:52 [Speaker 1]
And so and another thing that you guys have had, some luck with and through, I would assume, the label or or wherever it came from, but you've had some songs with the WWE.
00:45:03 [Speaker 1]
You've had some with the AEW.
00:45:05 [Speaker 1]
You've had some with the NHL and and things like that.
00:45:08 [Speaker 1]
What kind of what kind of, impact has that kinda had had with you guys as well?

00:45:14 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:45:15 [Speaker 4]
And that is something that that happened through FIX.
00:45:18 [Speaker 4]
FIX has a partnership with APM, and they do licensing.
00:45:22 [Speaker 4]
So Mhmm.
00:45:23 [Speaker 4]
That is a 100% them.

00:45:26 [Speaker 4]
You know, they essentially, what happens is our songs get put into a bank, and anybody that uses that service can use the songs.
00:45:34 [Speaker 4]
So yeah.
00:45:35 [Speaker 4]
I mean, we have friends that, we have made since, since, you know, it's been featured in the WWE.
00:45:44 [Speaker 4]
They came out to a show in Nashville.
00:45:46 [Speaker 4]
So we got to hang out with them and thank them for for all the the hard work that they've done and and including us into really cool, like, pieces.

00:45:57 [Speaker 4]
So yeah.
00:45:57 [Speaker 4]
I mean, just it's WWE, and and we don't know when that stuff is gonna happen.
00:46:02 [Speaker 4]
You know?
00:46:03 [Speaker 4]
Nobody says, like, hey.
00:46:04 [Speaker 4]
This is this just got picked up.

00:46:05 [Speaker 4]
It's gonna be used in this.
00:46:07 [Speaker 4]
It just We find out after the fact won't.
00:46:09 [Speaker 4]
We find out after the fact people message us on Facebook, and they're like, hey.
00:46:13 [Speaker 4]
You were just featured in, like, this matchup.
00:46:16 [Speaker 4]
I'm like, that's awesome.

00:46:19 [Speaker 1]
Right.

00:46:20 [Speaker 4]
And then

00:46:20 [Speaker 1]
you were spot?

00:46:22 [Speaker 4]
I, I actually went to one match, in Cincinnati, like, forever ago.
00:46:29 [Speaker 4]
And I, like, I'd only played video games of, like, I remember it was, like, WWF, on Super Nintendo.
00:46:37 [Speaker 4]
So, like, I only knew those characters, and I was, like, super young.
00:46:42 [Speaker 4]
But the whole time, I was screaming at the top of my lungs like, Undertaker, Undertaker.
00:46:46 [Speaker 4]
Where's the Undertaker?

00:46:47 [Speaker 4]
And, but, yeah, I actually got out to, like, the barricade for the runway.
00:46:54 [Speaker 4]
And, like, my my shining moment was, Shawn Michaels gave me a high five.
00:47:00 [Speaker 4]
So that was

00:47:01 [Speaker 1]
pretty cool.
00:47:01 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.

00:47:03 [Speaker 3]
Yeah.
00:47:03 [Speaker 3]
So so here's my question.
00:47:04 [Speaker 3]
And if you if you were to walk out into to the ring as a wrestler, what would what would be your song of choice?

00:47:15 [Speaker 4]
That's tough.
00:47:18 [Speaker 4]
Only because I used it in my, Facebook story the other day.
00:47:21 [Speaker 4]
It's like it's this droning guitar part, Stone by Alice in Chains.

00:47:27 [Speaker 3]
Oh, yeah?

00:47:28 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:47:29 [Speaker 4]
I like it.
00:47:30 [Speaker 4]
I don't know.
00:47:30 [Speaker 4]
It's a it's a fun one.
00:47:32 [Speaker 4]
It's something about it just gets stuck in my head all the time.

00:47:36 [Speaker 2]
Nice.
00:47:37 [Speaker 2]
I'm curious.
00:47:37 [Speaker 2]
You were talking about writing new music.
00:47:39 [Speaker 2]
You guys are gonna be recording, I guess.
00:47:41 [Speaker 2]
Have you already recorded the music or you you said you were in the studio?

00:47:45 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:47:45 [Speaker 4]
We have recorded the music.
00:47:47 [Speaker 4]
Just waiting on mixes and masters right now.
00:47:51 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:47:51 [Speaker 4]
We've got three songs back.

00:47:53 [Speaker 4]
And, yeah.
00:47:55 [Speaker 4]
I I I can't say enough about, like, how much that we've put into these songs and, you know, the time and effort that that Nick and John have put into recording and and songwriting with us.
00:48:08 [Speaker 4]
And it's like, I'm just I can't wait for that to come out because it's been like, I'm just sitting on these songs.
00:48:14 [Speaker 4]
I'm waiting.
00:48:15 [Speaker 4]
I'm like, I wanna show them to people, and I can't.

00:48:19 [Speaker 2]
So did you just did you go back to your same team then?
00:48:23 [Speaker 2]
Yeah.
00:48:24 [Speaker 2]
Okay.
00:48:25 [Speaker 2]
Okay.
00:48:26 [Speaker 2]
I'm just curious how that how like you said that you were trying to slow it, you know, maybe have things move in a little bit of a different direction.

00:48:34 [Speaker 2]
How critical Yeah.
00:48:36 [Speaker 2]
Was Nick in that process?

00:48:40 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:48:40 [Speaker 4]
I mean, one of the last trips I made, like, probably four or five trips up to the Grand Rapids from Cincinnati this year, just to, you know, complete stuff as we could, because I didn't wanna be backlogged and have, like, five songs to record still.
00:48:55 [Speaker 4]
So, yeah, I feel like the timeline that I was on really helped out.
00:49:00 [Speaker 4]
But, yeah, I mean, one of the one of the conversations that we had, it was me, Nick, and Izzy.
00:49:06 [Speaker 4]
And she was like, why do you why do you come up here to record?

00:49:08 [Speaker 4]
I was like, I've you know, I've been to so many different studios and work with so many producers that I just feel like he commands a level of of performance from me, that, you know, it's it all goes into the the best product possible.
00:49:26 [Speaker 4]
So, you know, I've I've been to studios before where they're like, okay.
00:49:29 [Speaker 4]
Now do, like, a a raspy one or a gritty one.
00:49:32 [Speaker 4]
And they'll do, like, two vocal tracks, two takes.
00:49:36 [Speaker 4]
I'm like, that's it?

00:49:37 [Speaker 4]
Like, don't you think you should add more to this?
00:49:40 [Speaker 4]
Like, there's always, like you know, if you're double or triple tracking vocals, it's like you do the main melody, you do harmonies, you do, like, texture layers.
00:49:49 [Speaker 4]
And if you know?
00:49:50 [Speaker 4]
I feel like that's the that's the level of, or that's, like, the the gold standard, I guess, where it's like, if they're not asking you to do other things, then it's like, okay.
00:50:02 [Speaker 4]
They don't know how to do it.

00:50:04 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.

00:50:05 [Speaker 2]
Or they're just phoning it in.

00:50:07 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.

00:50:09 [Speaker 3]
I always I

00:50:09 [Speaker 4]
mean, to be honest, so was I.
00:50:11 [Speaker 4]
At at, you know, at at one point, I was phoning it in.
00:50:13 [Speaker 4]
That was so I get it.

00:50:15 [Speaker 3]
I I always think that you've gotta find a producer that one, fits you, but two, a great producer is essentially one that you hate while you're in the studio because they're pushing you beyond your you know, they're pushing you to the limits.
00:50:34 [Speaker 3]
They're getting the best out of you because they care about

00:50:36 [Speaker 4]
the product.

00:50:37 [Speaker 3]
They want you to, you know, do well and stuff.
00:50:39 [Speaker 3]
And I think, you know, that's what you found with Nick.

00:50:42 [Speaker 4]
True.
00:50:42 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:50:43 [Speaker 4]
I mean, I I think that's definitely, definitely a big part of it.
00:50:46 [Speaker 4]
It's like, you know, I I hear all these stories about, like, Jonathan Davis being in the studio, and it's like, it's like the producer was making him cry in this in the booth and, like, just antagonizing the whole time.
00:50:58 [Speaker 4]
It's like, I don't think you know, I I feel like Nick, Nick and I are buddies, and he's, like, always I think it's the reward.

00:51:08 [Speaker 4]
He rewards me with, like, chili mac and Dairy Queen.
00:51:11 [Speaker 4]
He's like, after these after these are done, we're gonna get Dairy Queen.
00:51:14 [Speaker 4]
After this, we're gonna get pizza.
00:51:16 [Speaker 4]
I'm like, alright.
00:51:17 [Speaker 4]
Say less.

00:51:18 [Speaker 3]
I like that reward system.

00:51:21 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.

00:51:21 [Speaker 2]
It's like the Pavlov reward system.
00:51:24 [Speaker 2]
Right?

00:51:25 [Speaker 1]
Right.
00:51:25 [Speaker 1]
100%.
00:51:26 [Speaker 1]
Yes.
00:51:27 [Speaker 1]
100%, we do.
00:51:28 [Speaker 1]
We It works.

00:51:28 [Speaker 4]
And that's pretty accurate because we do have some some barks on the album.
00:51:33 [Speaker 4]
So

00:51:33 [Speaker 3]
Nice.
00:51:35 [Speaker 3]
I

00:51:35 [Speaker 4]
love it.
00:51:35 [Speaker 4]
I love it.

00:51:38 [Speaker 1]
So before we before we wrap up, everything, of course, we wanna touch base on where everybody can find you and everything, but we'd like to start a new thing a few weeks ago when I was on doing the show.
00:51:51 [Speaker 1]
So I like to do the whole rapid fire.
00:51:53 [Speaker 1]
Got got about eight to 10 questions for you, real quick answers.
00:51:57 [Speaker 1]
Stupid questions.
00:51:59 [Speaker 1]
Some some are fun.

00:52:00 [Speaker 1]
But, if you're if you're ready, Brady, I got you.
00:52:02 [Speaker 1]
You ready?

00:52:03 [Speaker 2]
I hope one of them is about Dairy

00:52:05 [Speaker 4]
Queen.
00:52:06 [Speaker 4]
As well as her name.

00:52:07 [Speaker 2]
I want I want his favorite Blizzard.

00:52:09 [Speaker 1]
Yeah.
00:52:09 [Speaker 1]
I was gonna say that I I was gonna throw that in.
00:52:11 [Speaker 1]
What is okay.
00:52:12 [Speaker 1]
So let's start it.
00:52:13 [Speaker 1]
What's your, favorite Blizzard?

00:52:15 [Speaker 4]
I'm a pretty plain kinda guy.
00:52:17 [Speaker 4]
Oreo.

00:52:18 [Speaker 1]
There you go.
00:52:19 [Speaker 1]
Song that made you wanna be in a band?

00:52:22 [Speaker 4]
Oh, man.
00:52:24 [Speaker 4]
Killswitch Engage, End of Party.

00:52:26 [Speaker 1]
Nice.
00:52:26 [Speaker 1]
First album you bought with your own money?

00:52:30 [Speaker 4]
Good Morning.
00:52:30 [Speaker 4]
I play a trio.

00:52:32 [Speaker 1]
Best band you've ever seen live.

00:52:37 [Speaker 4]
Oh, that's tough.
00:52:39 [Speaker 4]
There was one instance where I saw The Devil Wears Prada at Bogart's, and it was phenomenal.
00:52:45 [Speaker 4]
I love it.
00:52:46 [Speaker 4]
But I also I also enjoy the midnight.

00:52:49 [Speaker 1]
Dream band to tour with.

00:52:51 [Speaker 4]
Dream band to tour with.
00:52:55 [Speaker 4]
Breaking Benjamin.

00:52:59 [Speaker 2]
Fair.

00:53:00 [Speaker 1]
Most underrated enemy song.

00:53:05 [Speaker 4]
Oh, man.
00:53:07 [Speaker 4]
That's tough.
00:53:08 [Speaker 4]
I I really thought Broken Man was gonna be bigger than it is, but, you know, that's I don't know.

00:53:18 [Speaker 1]
Alright.
00:53:19 [Speaker 1]
Song song in the enemy catalog that's the most fun to play live.

00:53:26 [Speaker 4]
I think we've we've kind of, like, peaked at what we, at what our live set is.
00:53:33 [Speaker 4]
Am I the most fun for me is probably survive Okay.
00:53:37 [Speaker 4]
Or lost.
00:53:39 [Speaker 4]
And

00:53:39 [Speaker 1]
I was gonna ask this one, but I'm gonna skip over.
00:53:41 [Speaker 1]
It was Backstreet Boys Are In Sync, and I'm sure I know where you're probably gonna head with that.

00:53:45 [Speaker 4]
Well

00:53:47 [Speaker 1]
Exactly.
00:53:48 [Speaker 1]
But if you had to cover one more nineties or two thousands pop song tomorrow, what would you what are you picking?

00:53:56 [Speaker 4]
So I don't know if this is sacrilege or not, but I do enjoy like, my brother-in-law and I will go out and do, karaoke.
00:54:05 [Speaker 4]
Some there's actually one going on tonight.
00:54:08 [Speaker 4]
But I've been doing a lot of, like, nineties rock songs, like Goo Goo Dolls, Eve six.
00:54:15 [Speaker 4]
Yes.
00:54:18 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.

00:54:18 [Speaker 4]
Third Eye Blinds, like, all across the spectrum.
00:54:22 [Speaker 4]
Possum Kingdom.
00:54:25 [Speaker 4]
Yeah.
00:54:25 [Speaker 4]
It's like Yeah.
00:54:25 [Speaker 4]
I I don't even know what you asked.

00:54:28 [Speaker 4]
Well, I

00:54:28 [Speaker 2]
was I was gonna ask

00:54:29 [Speaker 1]
if you if you wanna if you could if you had to do another pop song, what would it be?

00:54:34 [Speaker 4]
Alright.
00:54:35 [Speaker 4]
Not pop song.
00:54:35 [Speaker 4]
This is one song that I've tried to convince the guys to do Alright.
00:54:39 [Speaker 4]
And we might not now because, you know, after finding out that you're a rock band is not supposed to cover another rock band.
00:54:46 [Speaker 4]
But I I mean, a big one for me was Paint It Black because I feel like it does check that box of

00:54:54 [Speaker 1]
Yes.

00:54:55 [Speaker 4]
Like, the lyrical, subject matter is cool, and I've done I identify with that.
00:55:03 [Speaker 4]
But, yeah, I mean, it's one of those things, like, I've mentioned before Super Nintendo and WWF and WWE.
00:55:11 [Speaker 4]
But, yeah, I remember that being on Twisted Metal Twisted Metal Black.
00:55:17 [Speaker 4]
And I was like, I remember playing that.
00:55:19 [Speaker 4]
I'm like, dude, this is so sick.

00:55:21 [Speaker 4]
Right.
00:55:21 [Speaker 4]
Just the just the pairing of, like, the montage video with that music.
00:55:26 [Speaker 4]
Feel like, dude, video games have gotten me into so many songs and bands over the years.
00:55:32 [Speaker 4]
But, yeah, that I would love to cover that

00:55:35 [Speaker 3]
as well.

00:55:35 [Speaker 1]
You you were talking about your karaoke list.
00:55:37 [Speaker 1]
I was like, man, one song that I wish somebody would bring back is Stroke Nine's Little Black Backpack.
00:55:44 [Speaker 1]
Absolutely love that tune.
00:55:47 [Speaker 1]
One more question.
00:55:48 [Speaker 1]
And what does Enemy want people to remember after seeing you live?

00:55:57 [Speaker 4]
That's a tough one.
00:55:58 [Speaker 4]
But I it's something that Trevor and I have talked about, that people, like, people will come up and say, you guys look like you're having so much fun up there.
00:56:09 [Speaker 4]
I'm like, yeah.
00:56:10 [Speaker 4]
100%.
00:56:11 [Speaker 4]
Like, it is it is so much fun for us to get up and play in front of people.

00:56:17 [Speaker 4]
And if it's not, you're not gonna give them the best show that you can.
00:56:22 [Speaker 4]
And that's that's the thing for us is, like, getting up and giving the best show that we possibly can.
00:56:27 [Speaker 4]
I'm doing warm ups before every show.
00:56:29 [Speaker 4]
I'm doing my regimen, and so is he.
00:56:33 [Speaker 4]
So, yeah, I mean, I feel like just knowing that people see that and that we have respect for the music, and we wanna give them the best show that we can.

00:56:43 [Speaker 1]
Awesome.

00:56:44 [Speaker 2]
Trevor's an animal on stage.

00:56:46 [Speaker 1]
Yes.

00:56:47 [Speaker 2]
Absolute animal.
00:56:49 [Speaker 2]
He's

00:56:49 [Speaker 1]
I'm really I'm really disappointed that it wasn't working out better with Trevor tonight to to to have him on the show.
00:56:56 [Speaker 1]
So when you talk to him again, please tell him we missed him and really wish he would've he would've been on here.
00:57:03 [Speaker 1]
So where can anybody find, Enemy?
00:57:06 [Speaker 1]
Social media or website?
00:57:08 [Speaker 1]

We will be living and going down memory lane with Russ and the guys, through the history of Etched and Embers, and we will be premiering the song The End, which was, according to Russ, written for this purpose, because it is the end of Etched in Numbers.

That's that's how we do things around here.

We make it tough.
01:07:59 [Speaker 1]
Being the asshole.
01:08:01 [Speaker 1]
To get into the grudger to get into the hall of fame, you literally you have to win three times, but I try to make it tough and tougher and tougher every single time.
