Previously on hard lore.
Tell me about touring with Zuma in 2025.
He's convinced that he can at least beat you in Nuggets.
There's no way, dude.
I fully agree.
Three weeks later.
No, f***ing Nuggets.
No, I'm not gonna puke.
Yeah, I didn't expect that much.
Like, welcome.
Okay.
Because if we play, what's going on?
What is going on with?
What is going on?
my body.
Dude, I'm scared.
Something is happening in my body, boy.
Hello, welcome.
It's Hardlord time.
My God.
How you doing, Bo?
I'm doing so great.
Who we have right here?
Hey, good.
How are you?
We've got our guest host today, Saina from Cruelty.
She's here to oversee a competition wildly put into the universe by her husband,
Cruelty vocalists.
Kohei Azuma, aka Azuma.
Hey, what's up?
And he is joined also insanely because he thought he needed some help by my brother, Taylor Young, who also happens to be Cruelties manager and his dad.
My dad, yeah.
And father, yes.
Daddy and son.
Volunteered for this task is what you were.
So he volunteered me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
How did you phrase it?
So how did this happen, by the way?
Why did you put into the universe that you think you could do this?
Why am I doing this?
Yeah.
I just want to beat Colin's record, you know?
It's pride.
As a man from Japan.
So honor, it's about honor.
It's honor.
Yeah, it's honor.
Okay.
Do you think he's honorable?
Does he have a lot of honor?
Yes, yes.
What about, does he have a lot of responsibility?
Of responsibility, yes.
Okay.
So you have a lot of honor and responsibility?
That's true.
To defeat.
So let's see how much.
Let's see if you're more honorable and responsible than me after you do this today.
So Sana's going to keep count of how many nuggets.
Both of them mean.
I'm just having lunch.
Taylor's just here for lunch.
Now, Colin had 88.
I had around 50.
And so Zuma's going for 89.
Yeah.
Sana's going to have like three or four.
So she's helping.
Because you're, yeah.
We can some nuggets.
We could add her nuggets to your score.
And I still don't think you'll get called.
close to 88.
Can we add
her score to my?
Yeah,
that's what I'm saying.
Not his, right?
Not his.
But Sanas, yes.
Yeah, you guys can compete
as a couple.
How about that?
Okay. But mostly she's our guest
hosts here to monitor you.
Just a backup plan.
Exactly.
If you get out of hand,
we have her to be like Zoom out.
Yeah, like if I ended up,
like, uh, giving up at like 85 or some shit.
Yeah.
If she got four,
I'm the winner.
Okay.
All right.
Whatever makes you happy.
Yeah, I mean, yeah.
I just want to have fun.
All right, well, let's get started.
Go ahead.
All right.
Dig in, boys.
He's got barbecue and mustard.
Plain yellow French's mustard.
Oh, he's going two at a time.
You're doubling up.
That's two.
That's two.
Oh, my God.
Zoom of ASMR.
You get right up on the mic with that.
Oh, I want to see you some crazy shit.
Oh, that's so bad.
So, Zuma, you've been on tour for like two months.
Yeah.
How's that going?
I mean, I'm ready to go home.
Yeah.
But this two months was amazing.
Oh, good.
Playing many shows in many states.
It started with our tour together in full hell.
Yeah.
And Click and Jarhead.
And then where did you go after that?
We went to Ohio, Cleveland.
Oh, no, wait.
Did you ever join?
Which tour was it?
Is Creeping Death?
With creeping death, yeah.
That's right.
So tell me.
crushing them right now
Talk to me about the Harm's Way tour
How was that?
That was awesome
Any highlights?
Trying to think
The audio is going to be insane
Trying to think
Well if anybody's tuning into this
They know exactly
Yeah, that's true
It's okay, you get it
What were good shows on that tour, Zuma?
I mean
Boston was best for me
Boston was fucking awesome
So I mean
Yes, I think so
Is that do you like the city?
You have Boston as well?
Yes.
Both sides are best.
All right.
It's very pretty.
There's a ramen spot called Yumeo Katare, which is funded by Japanese.
Oh.
It's like a big portion of ramen.
Is it in Cambridge?
It's in Cambridge.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's in the H-Mart?
No.
That one is really.
The H-Mart is unreal.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
H-Bart is sick, but yeah, it's a different place that they found.
Wow.
You loved it.
Yeah.
It's pretty much like what we can do.
It's a, like, specific style of ramen called Giro.
Giro is the sum of name, you know?
Yeah.
He dreams of sushi as well, I've heard.
Yeah.
You know that guy?
Yeah.
But the Giro is, like, a famous for big portion of ramen.
Oh, okay.
So it's like a fucking huge.
Oh, shit.
So perfect for America.
I mean, like, you guys are bad at eating ramen quick, you know?
Why?
Because, like, you guys, like, sipping soup.
I eat fast.
No.
No.
No.
And they're a tiny bit of noodles.
We enjoy the food.
You never see me eat it.
Yeah.
We eat it fast.
You gotta be like ramen in five minutes.
That's me.
And then I'm finishing everybody else's noodles.
You got to eat while it's hot.
That's the point.
You guys are a fucking, what is that?
Like breaking our culture, you know?
Yeah.
Raman is not a, like, restaurant, you know?
Not fancy.
I tried trying to make into like a boutique restaurant some shit.
It's actually just fast food like you say.
And you said fast and go kind of place.
And you told me a minute ago you're excited to go home.
The first thing you're going to eat is ramen.
Yeah.
My body is made of ramen, sushi and the Japanese barbecue.
Wow.
What about Santa?
What do you like the most?
I know sushi and the cucumber.
Cucumber?
Yeah.
Japanese cucumber is awesome.
It's the best, yeah.
Best.
dip in the miso sometimes.
Okay.
So good.
And you had amazing sushi
two and one.
The other day
and in the bay?
And then one more
for Taylor.
Talking and
I know she's
sounding mine.
No, she
I'm sorry.
No,
no,
this is
Sanis first time
on the show.
This is very exciting.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No,
no nervous here.
Not nervous to be here.
Not nervous to be here, right?
No.
It's a stupid show.
This one.
So,
creeping death tour.
That kind of
of that picked up immediately after our tour
and then saw you guys in Chicago
at Reggie's
Oh yeah
Was that good?
That's a cool show
That's a good venue yeah
That's good show
Shane booked that one
Oh come on legend
And then how long that tour was long right
Wasn't that longer than the Full of Hell tour?
Yeah I think it was four weeks I guess
Because when did we finish that tour with you
Boy,
10th.
June 10th?
Yeah, that sounds about right.
Ninth or 10th in Toronto.
Now,
it's the 11th.
So, yeah, four weeks, I guess.
But we had a couple days off, you know,
because some drivers are crazy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Toronto show was really good.
That last show.
That one was really good, too.
Canada of fucking rocks.
So you have 12 so far.
Yeah.
Just so you know.
That's it?
I feel like I've had 12.
So you got to do that about eight more times.
Mm-hmm.
He's doubling.
And then you're good.
So he's just taking longer to choose.
each one.
See, I don't know if it's a good strategy.
We'll see.
We don't really know what the good strategy is.
We really haven't figured out yet.
So he did one a minute.
That didn't really work.
After 40, it was like, this is the biggest mistake.
One a minute?
One a minute.
I thought it was smart.
I went for it.
Didn't really work.
Yeah.
You just got to be hung up.
So how long did you take to shoot you guys?
Hour and a half, I think.
Okay.
Yeah.
To get to 88.
I'm just starving.
We had, we had questions submitted by our Discord and Patreon.
join both if you haven't already.
We're just kind of winging this one.
Yeah, we'll get there.
We'll get there.
We got time.
Because I want to see you get to 89.
It's fucked up because I want a nugget.
They smell great.
They're mine.
Okay.
Well, Sane it, do you want?
You want a nugget?
You can't.
And you can add it to Zuma.
And that's one for Zuma.
Do you want mustard?
Mustard.
Mustard.
Mustard big in Japan?
Did you know
wasabi?
In Japan.
When you buy
Nagy's
at some places
you can only get
barbecue sauce and the mustard
that's it
that's it no ketchup
no Swedish sour
no maybe ketchup
yeah
I like ketchup on nuggets
that's good
me too
yeah never even thought about
ketchup you know
really it's amazing
is ketchup not big in Japan
I can't remember
maybe only for fries
french fries
I have
this is my most
I'm weird with food
it's well documented
I will have
ketchup with any like protein
like any meat, eggs, it's fine.
But not fries.
Oh, I love it with fries.
But I just like, I will have ketchup on anything.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
You see what you're saying?
Steak.
I guess, yeah, I'll do the bad steak.
So, God, I hope.
My mom doesn't really watch this, I don't think.
But she used to broil the hell out of steaks.
They'd be gray.
Ketchup was the only way.
That's all I could do.
Yeah.
Do people cook nuggets at home or no?
Not really.
No.
I mean, you do.
There's dining nuggets.
Fried chicken or, oh, yeah.
If there's that.
From scratch?
But not from scratch.
But fried chicken from scratch is like pretty common.
Grandma's recipe type shit, you know?
Oh, yeah.
What is what are you into?
What do you like to do outside of cruelty?
Good food and good coffee.
You have your jewelry?
Yes.
All the jewelry and stuff that she makes.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, cool.
Yeah.
And you love Labibou?
Yeah, I love boo-boo.
Love boo-boo.
She loves like horror stuff, too.
Oh, really?
All the time.
What's your favorite? Do you like Japanese horror?
Or do you like American horror stuff or all?
Both.
Both. But I like Crayon Shin-Chang, you know, in Japan.
My favorite character.
Okay. Okay. Which one's that?
I mean, out of Crens-Synchon?
Yeah. No, no, what, what is that?
Did that get remade here?
What I mean? You don't know Crens-Shin-C-C-Cin?

That's true.
Cruelty Amazon.com.
Wow.
Way cooler than Jeff Bezos.
That's true.
Isn't the worst part about this having to answer questions while you're trying to slam nuggets?
Yeah.
I'm not stuck in here.
That's good.
You feel good?
Yeah.
Okay.
You want to know what you're at?
No.

You're about to have 20.
There he is.
Oh, 21.
Are you double dipping?
20.
No.
There you go.
All right.
Your paces are not that different,
but zero.
Jimmy, you're doing great.
I'm smoking them, though.
This app is also unbelievable.
Yeah, why?
We don't know what we're doing.
We don't have honor and responsibility.
What's next for cruelty after you get home?
You have an agent to with Ram Rock.
Oh, really?
Oh, hell, yeah.
Cool.
When is that?
Like, later, I don't know.
Actually, first half of August.
Oh, so right away.
Pretty much, yeah.
You stay busy, man.
I don't want to, but...
Yeah.
Was your new record,
last time you were on the show?
No, I don't think so.
No, I don't think so.
How's it been going?
When was the last time I did?
The fast-faced cheerless?
Oh, yeah, that's right.
That was like a 2024, 23?
I think it was early 2024.
Okay, okay.
I think.
Although maybe not because we did the Sound and Fury thing.
I think it was close after that, and that was
2023.
So, yeah.
Almost two years ago.
Time prize.
How's the record, Ben?
How's the response?
I think it's been good.
People loving it?
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
You got new stuff?
No?
Only two songs down, bro.
That's a lot.
That's a lot when they're five minutes long.
Yeah, that's a start.
That's true.
But, yeah.
Simply, it's not easy for bands to write, like, third LP.
Oh, you know?
Third LP is tough.
This one would be third, you know?
That's the one where you kind of like...
Okay, who are we?
We got to do something different.
You know, we got to figure this out.
Yeah.
But he's new singer.
Yeah, true.
That's good.
That's a good way to think of it.
I might actually sing like you.
Me?
Yeah.
Like, I might sing on the new record.
What do you think?
I think that's crazy.
We're going to see about that.
Yeah.
I can see the wave form.
I'm just broke right there.
It's a creeping half.
The manager should maybe step in for that one.
We're going to have to auto tune that.
What are some of your favorite bands?
I'm gonna go.
Oh, okay, okay,
okay, that's okay.
Okay, okay.
We're gonna get the translations underneath for that,
some subtitles for that.
Yeah, just asked me.
Nice.
That question is hard.
Favorite band, just a few.
Three, four, ten.
Some bands you love.
And again?
And again?
And again?
Hell yeah.
Cool.
I have this middle band.
That's middle band.
This band.
Santa loves death metal.
Sanna, you do one of my favorite moves.
You want to know one of your moves
that you do on stage that I really like?
You do this thing that Trish Stratis did.
She does the point.
What's that?
Tristratis was a wrestler.
Okay.
And Sana does a yeah.
Yeah, that's cool.
I like that.
That's good.
Cool.
Stage move.
Your cool move.
It's good move.
I like that.
Some other bands that you love?
But I try pizza
Yeah
Yeah, we don't call it Circle Pit anymore
Sound of the beauty
Sound of purity
We'll let you know how it went
Here it is
These are starting to get nasty
Yeah
Yeah they cool off and then it's real bad
I did
I got messages after mine
That we should be
Door-dashing
Like every 10 minutes
It's just not practical
That's wow
It's just not gonna happen
We could put them in like one of them
Pizza delivery bags
The hot bags
Yeah
You get hot bag it
That was fucking nasty
There's no room in there
No honor
This is why you want me to do
I guess
Why
I don't know
You guys want me to be
Seedy
You
Yeah
You are
Suggesting doing this
You wanted this
This is why you wanted you to
This is my business
I like
I'd like just talking to you
Anytime anywhere
True
But you
We have honor
and you challenged.
So we're letting it happen.
You literally challenged my honor.
That's true.
I want to know more about Saina.
What's a day in the life of Sana like?
Like your full day at home in Japan.
Me?
Yeah.
Tell us she you can answer in Japanese.
I'm lazy.
You're lazy.
Me too.
Wow.
Here, here.
Being lazy is awesome.
Yeah, it's the best.
It's sure candy.
I'm lazy.
We're doing, we're walking hard on this already.
You know?
That's right.
So when we are home, chill.
Yeah.
Yeah, true.
Eight weeks of touring deserves eight weeks of chill.
Of just chilling.
Yeah.
Actually, more.
But yeah.
How is the response to your new record and cruelty in general in Japan?
I think it's been good.
Okay.
Yeah.
Like the hometown crowds have been getting better?
What's funny is people understanding differently depends on the country.
Mm.
Like, so this song has like big three mush parts, some of that.
Like we name A, B, C.
Yeah.
The A one does very well here.
Everyone's going to go crazy.
But it doesn't go good in Japan, you know.
Oh, interesting.
You know, when the C one does very well in Japan or about not doing good here.
This is good information.
This is actually very interesting.
But like the D-beat parts.
Yeah.
Do Japanese crowds go crazy for them?
Yeah, like a fucking, you know, like.
I mean, I'm more like kind of side to a side, but I could everywhere, you know?
Yeah, yeah.
This way.
Side to front, to back to side.
I think, uh, Zumi, you agreed with me once.
I think that the coolest looking thing from stage.
Oh, like pushpit?
Is a push pit.
It's like a really violent, active pushpit.
Yeah.
Is the coolest looking thing.
Because, uh, yeah.
He got 40.
Yeah.
Like violin push bits is harder than like weak windmill, you know?
100%.
Yeah, that's true.
1,000%.
Week windmill.
I'm not going to join push bits at all, but as a musician.
Yeah.
It looks fucking awesome.
Yeah.
I'm glad we agree on that.
Looks like water.
Yeah, it looks like boiling water.
Should I throw it to some patron questions?
Yeah, I think so.
What is each of your biggest, you know what a pet peeve is?
What's that?
Pet peeve is like a, like, no.
Okay.
all right we're getting we're getting i have to eat still so like a pen i'm eating we're eating
no honor he's always no honor he's always farting yeah oh no no honor no honor so zuma so zuma
what's fun is i don't like far like too often like this in japan but we're never here oh yeah
because the food is it's because you eat he's eating denny's steaks and stuff that's gross
dude salmon denny's the best one why we're
Would you, the best?
Yeah.
Stop with the bit.
The bit's over.
You got people out in America going and buying salmon from Denny's.
That's crazy.
It's sick.
Do not do Denny's slander.
It's awesome.
They're awesome.
So a pet peeve, Zuma.
Yeah.
What's that?
It's like something that annoys you, but it's relatively minor.
So it's not like, if I'm an asshole or I don't say please or thank you, that's like, oh, that's a bad guy.
It would be more like if I'm constantly like
And if I don't like that noise
Like Beau's noises are one of my pet peeves, you would say
Or like one of my biggest pet peeves is
People behind me on an airplane
Trying to get off before me
Yes
You know
Pet peeve is a specific small thing that really bothers
Like a small thing
Okay, okay
But maybe we wouldn't universally
Everyone go, oh yeah, I hate that
It's like unique to you
Something like that for you
Taylor. Do you have an example of one?
Not the moment
Okay.
That's crazy.
Come back to me.
Okay.
I have.
Yeah, we all have a belly.
Your life is pet peeves.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Wait.
All right.
Probably my biggest pet peeve is any public space for someone's watching something on their phone full volume.
Oh.
Drives me.
I was going to say people who, people who are like in public on speaker phone.
Yeah.
You're pointing it at me.
That's insane.
You're pointing it at me.
Just for it into the chair.
Why?
So it comes up into you, not at a vortex at me.
I don't like it either.
It's okay.
I don't care.
No honor.
Tell him he has no honor.
I think so.
No, I think so.
That's a good wife.
You think he has honor?
No damn honor.
So what's your pet peeves?
Do you like that, Zuma?
Farting.
So do you guys have like stuff like don't do like this?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I like, what do you go, what do you call in English?
Fidgeting.
Fidgeting.
Okay, okay.
So I hate that shit.
Okay.
James, I do it a lot.
James will do it in the van.
You're crazy.
James will do it in the van so much that the van shakes.
But we didn't like friends, I don't care, you know?
Yeah.
But when I'm in, like, restaurants, some stuff, and then the guy next to us doing that, some shit,
I'm not going to be happy, you know?
Mm-hmm.
I don't know.
Just bother me for some reason.
That's fair.
That's a common one.
I used to do it in school a lot on my desk and stuff.
Yeah.
Oh, dude.
People hated me.
I yelled at a kid yesterday at Disneyland.
For what?
When I said kid, he was like 11, 12.
He was a young.
Yeah, young.
No honor.
But just like a, you know.
Pirates has two, right?
It's got one real one and then like a little fake one.
Yeah.
The real one, him and his three girlfriends.
friends all like screamed and it was funny whatever but it was really loud and then we went down
the fake one and he just like ah for like five seconds straight into my and I just went hey you got
to stop and you're like and you apologize to me afterward wow but I told him I said I said
hey that's totally okay have fun just be mindful of other people that's that's what I said
that's nice and the mom the mom also made him apologize oh did she she was in the back
and saw it.
Oh, mom saw it all.
Yeah, she was not happy.
Can you explain pet peeves to Sanna and have her give one?
People who are doing it like, like,
like,
Oh, that's been boy-us-in-lawing, and...
What was yours?
Uh, somebody from behind me on an airplane trying to rush out.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't like that.
Oh, okay, that's, like that.
All airplanes, everything about an airplane.
Oh, dude, when somebody gets to go to that, oh, yeah, that's...
into the seat and they hold on to your
self and you're like
the worse.
So what would yours be?
Uh,
can't be.
Yeah, in general.
Yeah, in general.
Yeah.
So, people bring in umbrella in Japan.
Oh yeah.
Every time.
Yeah.
But when you're like,
walking stairs, some people are like,
grabbing like this way.
Like this way.
Oh, I don't get this.
Oh.
I don't hate you sometime.
Oh, yeah.
That's a pet peeve.
Yeah.
Okay.
I would hate that.
That is a good.
Yeah, that's a good one.
You've been thinking about that.
Don't do that.
How are you feeling?
I think I'm talking too much.
How about this, Zuma?
That's 45.
You're halfway.
You got 40 something more.
I did that twice.
Yeah.
What did I stop that?
And then I got creme brule and cheesecake.
I think I'm done.
I think any more and I will feel bad.
But you puked after.
I did puke after.
As did I.
And it felt incredible.
My tongue's starting to hurt from the barbecue sauce.
The barbecue is crazy.
The sugar is crazy.
I just didn't want to have a bad time.
He, like, the sodium soaked up all his spit.
Yeah, you got vas.
Zuma.
Do you have a favorite memory from a show you've played in Japan?
Like a show in Japan where you really felt like, wow, I did it in my hometown.
The one came up quick was like, so when we did the first US tour from Boston to down to FIA three years ago,
we once we got back to Japan, we played our solo show, just us, you know.
The showcase.
And then rumor, yeah, the rumors like so packed, you know.
people like great job you know to us you know because uh at that time and no bands touring
like international you know yeah because that that was like right after the pandemic you know yeah
oh sure i can't wait to see the clip of him challenging us if you don't even beat me that's no
honor no he'll meet you that's 47 right yeah yeah 47 yeah that was a good show no i was
pretty impressed, you know?
Yeah, it should be.
Because people were waiting for us
back, get back, getting back
to my country, you know?
What's your favorite venue in Tokyo
to play?
Because I've only played Antonach, right?
It's a good vendor.
It's the only one of played, yeah.
Is that true?
Don't you usually play two?
Tokyo shows when you go?
Both in the same place.
We play Garrett.
Garrett and Antio.
We pray too.
Okay, we did that then.
Garrett is 10 years ago.
Garrett has that loft.
That's where Garrett, I think is,
wait.
We saw the,
we saw the,
We saw the clown band there.
Yeah, the homie of the clown.
Yeah.
I don't remember what that was.
I think they were maybe...
I like the venue called Earthdom.
Earthdom?
Yeah.
It's like Earth and D-O-M.
I got you.
It's like a punk venue.
Like a...
Owned by one bastard.
Oh, cool.
This is a good question.
Yeah.
Is there a Japanese food that you've tried in America
where you've thought, you know what?
that's actually pretty good that might be they might do that better oh Japanese brand but
doing better here yeah ah the opposite I had yeah I'm sure yeah but come all of them all
of them like Yoshinoa you know oh Japanese Yoshinoa is unbelievable
Japanese three bucks yeah Yoshinoa here is like nobody bottom tier right right
it's bad subway Yoshinoa yeah mm mm barely probably not
I can't imagine in a Japanese thing.
Yeah.
I don't like the ramen.
You don't like the sushi.
He had good sushi the other day and in the day.
But that was not by Japanese, you know?
She was Vietnamese.
Oh, wow.
Very cool.
And then, you know, she's not American American, I guess.
That's why she did great job on sushi.
There you go.
Taylor, somebody wanted to know if you have a specific funny moment or cool moment from Anilmone.
tour.
Your fart is still in here
just so you know.
For sure it is.
You're lying.
No, it's right here.
It lingers.
You pointed at me.
You're lying.
I have a few.
Any that you can share.
Like a funny one with you and John
or something that you can share, you know?
You already told the
drink story.
That was unbelievable.
That was.
That was, we couldn't do it.
Everything that's coming to mind, I literally can't.
You can't say?
What did Todd, Todd ribbed me about something about dancing.
You remember what it was?
Nope.
I mean neither.
I've been perfect.
Oh, dancing?
Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
What was it?
I can't remember what it was.
No, I think it was, it might have been George, Hirsch.
Yeah.
That, uh, actually.
Yeah.
So it was at your apartment.
Todd picked up a guitar and started playing Twista Kane.
Uh-huh.
And then George said,
How many times do you think that's been played here?
on that guitar.
Because I have a huge
dancing, like, painting.
Couldn't remember how that went.
That sounds about right.
Not that much.
Good rib, harmless rib.
Harmless rib.
Okay.
Zuma.
What are your favorite things
about touring the U.S. now?
Meeting friends, I guess.
Eating nuggets with your friends?
Just realize
it's not normal
that I be able to meet friends
anywhere in the world.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Just so fun.
Them eating good food.
Other than this.
Other than nuggets, yeah.
Those are good answers.
What would you think, say, what would you say are your favorite things?
Oh.
No, you eat that nugget.
We'll come back to you later.
Don't be shy with that microphone, Zoom.
We need to talk right up into it.
Don't.
No.
No.
It's incubating in here.
Just wait.
There's no window.
No, I'm not funny.
Just changing position.
Yeah, just changing my position.
Move is my...
Because you're not going to be able to hear a thing.
What are...
Big Brian wants to know your favorite
death and doom metal bands from Japan.
That's a good question.
Put people on to some bands.
Graham from Zabba?
Yeah.
You say what?
What are your favorite death metal bands from Japan?
He's asking me?
Oh, okay.
Do you're metal bands from Japan?
Favorite doom is corrupted.
Classic.
As he says, probably.
Yeah.
Same thing.
He would go,
Oh, corruptor, baby.
It's awesome.
And here,
is grief from here?
Grief is from here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I like grief.
And then,
wait,
it's coming.
What's coming?
My fault.
Don't.
Come on, man.
We're dying over here.
I do like her.
She's suffering.
It's like more like epic, like stuff.
Like, uh, evoking.
Oh, I love it.
Yeah, yeah.
That's the shit.
Who else?
What's yours?
From here?
Yeah.
I don't think I like any.
Death or band?
Is it a hater?
Death plenty.
Yeah.
Uh, ripping corpse number one, death metal band.
You love Paul Bearer.
I like Paul Bearer.
I don't count it.
That's just.
slow rock.
Yeah, but that's what...
Yeah, but dude, it's like the next step of in warning.
Right.
You know?
Well, they're just one of the best bands, period.
Period.
Yeah.
You've officially beaten me, Zuma.
Is that true?
Holy shit.
And that was your alleged number.
Mm-hmm.
Wasn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
Who's your favorite Japanese?
Death metal band.
Transigester.
Oh, yeah.
There's an old band.
They are now, some of them now are in Anatolia.
Oh, cool.
Which is on a dark disc and records.
I saw them in Copenhagen.
Oh, in that thing?
Oh, the Kiltem.
Yeah.
It was good.
They're good.
What are some of your favorite Japanese death metal and doom metal bands?
Coffins.
Coffins.
And Anatomy.
Me too.
Very cool.
I told me it's more duney.
There's not many are like, you know, active now.
You want to know mine?
My favorite Japanese.
Yeah, I do.
Death, do you know a little bit.
They're called cruelty.
Oh.
Hell yeah.
Zuma, where's your favorite area in the country in America?
Like, where do you enjoy being?
Kind of maybe even regardless of the shows, what do you enjoy?
You're like, oh, this is nice.
Honestly, Boisey was amazing.
Boise is really nice.
Well, you had a good guy
You had a great job
In the other room
Some guy
A random guy from Idaho
It was driving us
So
We went to Boise
You saw the real thing
Not like
Tor Boise
Maybe yeah
You saw local Boise
Yeah like a
Good River
You know
Did you shoot a gun?
Yeah I was just gonna ask that
No
I wanted to shoot a gun
I wanted to so bad
I mean last time
I shot the gun was like in grammar
When I was like a 17 or some shit
Oh okay
So it's been
13 years already
Wow.
So do you have a guy out here?
Can I shoot?
You have to go to a range.
Can I shoot in here?
And you're the third person to ask me that.
Wow.
That's true.
Wow.
So it's a fair question.
Okay, can you rank these in order for me?
Burger, pasta, pizza, fried chicken.
Burger pasta, pizza, fried chicken.
What's the best?
Or what's the worst first?
Can I guess?
Wait.
Okay.
From top to bottom?
I think...
No bottom to top.
I think fried chicken.
That's number one.
Number one?
Yeah.
Okay.
For you?
Mm-hmm.
Burger.
Okay.
Pizza.
Yeah.
pasta.
That's what I think.
I think pizza might be over burger.
I think noodles, if it was noodles, noodles, noodles would win.
Pasta.
Yeah.
Like...
I just remember in the tierless, he was so sick of burgers.
Pasta in here?
yeah
because I
not it
not Asian
yeah it implies
Italian
I do like pasta
yeah
but like when I get pasta
here it's not
it's always not
Adente
you know
that's what I
he might be American
he's a young
dude
I can't believe
he just drops
El Dente
I think out of those
I think
I think about
hot a noodle you know
yeah
yeah
to the tooth
is what
Al Dente means
better
but
I think
burgers
is number one for me.
Really?
Yeah.
Fried chickens the last.
Burger is...
I like it.
It's the one that makes me feel the least bad.
I just...
I could have a burger every damn day.
I feel that way about pizza.
I believe it.
It's fair.
I would put pasta at the top.
I eat it the least.
Interesting.
But it's because it's...
Terrible for you.
It's just the fattest thing you can eat.
Yeah.
This is a great question, Zuma.
Are you still a big Celtic Frost fan,
even after he hated your shirt so much?
Wait, what's the story here?
They did a Kelsey Frost rip-off shirt and Tom, Tom flipped out.
Really?
You didn't like it?
We came to an understanding.
Okay.
Yeah.
Hey, I said, hey, it's not a rip-off.
It's a tribute.
Yeah.
Look at his arm.
No one's saying, this is cruelty.
What an astonishing way to show tribute.
Yeah.
But he just, he ended up messaging me like, you can keep setting the stuff and you don't have to pay me.
And I was like, yeah, of course.
Yeah.
I do have to pay.
Come and get it.
You want to grab a wrong.
I just can ship you one.
Yeah.
We had a similar problem that we've figured out with Bullthroar.
Oh.
Similar.
A lot from him, yeah.
Yeah.
Similar thing.
I think it's just different.
I told him that story when that happened.
Different generations just don't have the same mindset that we have.
Yeah, for sure.
They didn't, Tom G. Ward never saw the kids like us, Coca-Cola.
You don't know that it's all.
all just, it's fun.
Oh, good, clean, fun.
Did you revisit Waffle House on this tour?
No, we had a chance one time,
but it's kind of out of the way.
I'm not a big fun either, so.
I think it's the best of, you like Denny's steak,
and that's like, that's an actual garbage,
whereas, like, everything at Waffle House is good.
Be nice to Denny's, though.
What do you got, what is your thing with the Japanese Denny's was pretty good?
I went.
It was right next to my hotel in Asakas.
pretty good
but I'm not going here
they have ramen bro
that's crazy
you eat denny's in Japan often
maybe once a month
or maybe rest
once a month
you go with him to Denny's
once a month
oh my God
I have it once
every three years
and then I go
I'm never going
I never eating Denny's ever again
What about how often
because listen
Do not compare Japanese
Danish Denny's an American one
You were doing that
You're saying it's good.
You think it's better here?
Just different, like, wait.
Yeah, that makes sense.
You're not going to get stake in Japanese.
Right.
You might, weirdo.
Don't do it.
They don't even have a lot of.
Yeah.
Don't.
Stop.
Oh.
This is the fart episode?
Fart lore.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh, no.
Steven's dying.
Sorry.
Sorry, me.
sorry, both.
They're actually doing fine.
They don't have to smell it.
When I was in Japan, every single day, I started my day at 7-Eleven.
How often do you eat a meal at 7-Eleven?
A meal.
Like a nice little...
Like a better box or something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So good.
Like, yeah, like, maybe at least once a week.
Okay, yeah.
If we can count like those only games, you know?
Yeah.
Maybe more
Yeah, those are incredible
If I had that
I'd be at 7-11 every day
Dude, if I had access
To the Japanese
Chicken Katsu sandwich
From 7-Eleven
I would never wonder
What I'm gonna eat
Think about this one
The wiener
With the ketchup
Mustard
Comb of the wiener
But you know
They have the ketchup mustard
They get splits
And they get evenly spread it
That's genius
You know the pizza bun
We are genius
Yeah
You are a genius
Yeah
You know the pizza
bun at 7-11?
The hot bun near the road.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
God.
You get that?
You get that?
Yeah.
The pizza bun?
We call Nikuman.
Nikuman.
Yeah.
So, Nikuman.
Here.
Excuse me.
Actually, Pizza man for that one.
Okay.
Man is like a bum, you know?
Okay.
Here the perception is that Japan does everything better.
Yeah.
Like, whether it's food or like public transportation or the phone cleaner,
UV.
thing that you see or like the umbrella
shaker thing to get all the whatever
just like little public conveniences that make things better
is there anything
that you wish Japan
did like America
or anywhere else
I think
like roads in general
they're everywhere
super tiny in Japan you know
that's my least favorite thing
you know just tight
yeah like why you know
Tokyo might be too late to fix the issue
Yeah, pretty old.
Yeah, even in smaller, like, newer cities, like, they still do, like, just, you know, one way.
One way, yeah.
Well, the actual car, one, one, you know.
Aren't the actual cars in Japan a little smaller?
Like, they're more narrow?
Like, a little bit, like, maybe one foot.
You know, Toyota, Yaris.
Yeah.
That's something like that.
Okay.
It's the most popular thing in Japan, you know?
Okay.
So.
And it's made the same?
Well, I guess we don't know.
Yaris is the same, yeah.
Okay.
But we don't have Tacoma, you know?
Yeah.
We have a pickup, but it's smaller.
Yeah, the Tanderer is like way out of off, you know?
I want the truck.
The little one is awesome.
I love it.
Well, you've seen the thing that the truck bed is the same size?
Yeah, right.
So it's like you can haul the same amount of shit.
It's just a smaller vehicle.
Give me it.
Taylor, somebody said, I absolutely loved your future in the new Angel Dust single.
How did that first come about and what was it like working with them?
It was cool.
Me and Justice playing Fortnite.
He was like, yo, I got to get you scream on the song.
And I was like, sick.
And then I didn't know it was going to be the thing it became, which was, is cool.
A video?
I didn't know.
Like, at the time, I didn't know.
And then he was like, well, we're filming three videos back to back.
Oh, three?
They shut up.
Well, I mean, yeah.
There's new shit.
Yeah.
But yeah, it was fun.
Not helping?
Hungry?
Why if I puke?
You're going to be mad at me?
The challenge is over if you puke.
Oh, yeah.
Is it going to be funnier?
If you puke?
Yeah.
Funnier than a fart, for sure.
Puking is funny here or no?
It's gross, but I think in this context, it's like nothing better than that.
But if you're going to do it, do it in the bowl.
It's disgusting and I can't watch it, but it is funny.
I don't want to clean it up.
How do you feel about puking?
Bummit.
Hurl.
Spue.
Chum.
No light.
No light.
I think Zuma, how many more do you think you got?
20
You think you have 20 more
I think so
I have a headache already
Taylor
What did you think about
Colin kicking that guy
I thought it was dope
I didn't see it
When it happened
Hey
Neither did the guy
I had tunnel vision
To survive
You were so scared
And that's why I was doing it
Yeah
I was really just trying to help my brother
It helped
But then you were also
Like a beacon
And I just saw you
but then in that moment I didn't
and then it was
yeah
there you go
feel that
what if he has
no it's not good
the sodium
yeah
yeah
yeah
I thought it was dope
how was preparing
for that
disgrace set
and did you feel
like you still
were going to vomit
while seeing
yeah did you do the thing
I did the thing more than ever
it was crazy
oh wow
really
I did the thing more than ever
because I arrived there
early
got sick
day two
so like flu
like something
I had like a
drip. And it was just choking me. First song I had to fully turn around. I'm not looking
forward to this video because it's going to sound like obituary's playing. You could mix it.
The first song I'm like skipped lines and I had to turn around. It was awesome. I was going
really hard. But then I got I got a grip of it but usually it's like first song it happens,
second song maybe once and then I'm clear and then maybe once towards the end. This one was like
every song. One a song.
Yeah.
You, there's, there were some videos shared recently of new disgrace stuff being recorded.
Yes.
How do you feel about that?
Shit's dope.
Good. It's awesome. It's the best stuff. Yeah?
By far. Really?
Easily.
There's no vocals left and he's got shit stuck in his head.
Yeah, but that's because he's, I am the biggest fan.
Yeah, but you listen to it twice.
Twice.
I'm gonna

You said after that cruelty's done.
You said after that cruelty's done.
Yeah, I think so.
That's kind of the.
coolest thing.
Well, it keeps getting pushed back, so you've got to write another album.
Once the new Grand Theft Auto was out, Cruelty's on an indefinite.
I mean, I'm not going to, you know, holding over, but maybe.
You take a break.
I'm not going to tour.
You can do GTA6, GTA6 and write an album at the same time.
Because think about pause, riff idea, shak it, cich-a-d-l-l-up.
That's a good idea, yeah.
Back to the heist.
Yeah.
All right, here's a good question.
When cruelty first planned to tour the U.S., what did you expect?
And did it meet your expectations?
So first couple shows in the Northeast was, well, like, exactly what I kind of expected.
Oh.
But I actually, so first show was January 1st, you know, literally the New Year.
New Year.
Japan is big about New Year, if you know.
It's like a Christmas for you.
Everyone's...
But it's not the same day.
It's a different day, right?
It's the same, same.
It's the same day?
January 1st, yeah.
Oh, okay.
China does different day, but yeah, Japan does January 1st.
And then everybody stuck at home.
On January 1st in Japan.
So I didn't expect that time.
Mezaded.
Good?
Yeah, I didn't accept that.
Fuck!
No.
Fucking Noggies.
No, I'm not going to puke.
Yeah, I didn't expect that much.
Like, welcome.
Okay.
Because if we play, it's going on.
What is going on with my body?
Dude, I'm scared.
Something's happening in my body, boy.
Shit out, bro.
What's going on?
Okay.
Holy shit.
Get away.
Get away from the whispers
He's actually crying
Oh my god
My voice was
Fucking crazy
I was texting
So
Yeah
So if you're free page
Bam
January 1
There would be no one
You know
Oh okay good
So that's what I was saying
So I was like
Like an overwhelming
You know
Okay
But
Did we have 10
show some shit down to FIA
FIA
And then
the FIA
Our set was fucking amazing
Yeah
I almost cry
You know
Really?
It's just amazing you know
Trip
The longest trip
Across the ocean
The world yeah
Yeah yeah
And then we
We're driving ourselves
The SUV
SIV
SEPI was sitting in the fucking
In the back
You know
Wow
It was kind of tough.
And is this, was Taylor already your manager?
Kind of.
Soon after that.
Okay.
I think so, yeah.
He made sure you never did that again.
Sort of.
I think so.
They've done a few tours on the van, but that's, he's a shopper.
He likes to save money.
I've seen him booking hotels.
It takes him hours.
Yeah.
Taylor, you like being a manager?
No.
Yeah, it seems like one of the worst.
But I like to help.
You do.
Yeah.
I like to help all the bands
I work with it
He's not like a manager, manager
He's not like
Oh, I'm gonna take every single 15% income
Fuck you
I've probably been paid twice ever
True
Well
Because I didn't pay
This is on the last store
No this is something being taken from me
That is true
What Taylor
What was your initial reaction to cruelty
And when did you discover them?
I think it was when you hit
No you know what
it was actually Xavier coming home
from touring with them
in Japan
Oh, I just had a, yeah, same show
with Balmacara on there
Yeah, he was like, dude, you gotta check out this band
He's a string tour, I guess
And then he hit me up maybe six months after that
To mix some stuff
Yeah
And then I've been hooked
That's it
It's everything I like
Yeah, so did you record them immediately
And then manage them?
No, so I mixed
Yes
the first LP
it mixed a bunch of stuff
and then they came here
started managing after that record
sometime and then
after the FIA
we tracked the second
LP together yeah
oh I guess then I did manage
before FAA huh
I don't know I don't know
either way
okay fuck
do you know what fuck Mary Kill is
that game
You got a fuck one.
This is ridiculous.
Can you rank these Marshall, Mesa, Bugi, and Peevy?
So the idea is...
Like, which one do you hate?
Which one do you like?
Which one do you love?
Yeah.
Spend the rest of your life with half for one night, kill.
Yeah.
I used to...
I have been a Mesa guy for a long time.
Yeah, he's got a big Mesa stack at home.
Yeah.
I have a Mark 5 and then rectifier, like, old one.
Two channel, all the one.
That's the good one.
All the rectifier.
And then I'm like 5
But
I started liking martial
After
Yeah
Yeah
That thing right there
Because
I mean
All the motions
I can get in Japan
Like
J-CM 900
Or 2000
No
Didn't you?
No that was in
There was one in Germany or something
No it was in Poland
And they thought it was a bootleg
It was that one
Oh shit
And that's real?
Got it fixed up.
Yeah.
Nice.
And then 900 is not good, you know?
900 is thinner.
Yeah.
It's thinner, but it has more gain.
Yep.
I think it's good for like higher tuning bands.
Yep.
Yeah, it's brighter.
Yeah.
Definitely.
But when I use 900,
because 900 is almost always like backline that venue in Japan, you know?
Yeah.
So I had a many bunch of times to try.
But I always feel like kind of thing.
Okay.
I prefer like, like, it's something like,
like a wall you know the mesa is kind of that way it does that yeah so i was i have been a mesa
guy but uh now i like some specific match marshals too like 800 pv at the bottom
pv is kind of like two i don't know it's not it's kind of it's kind of it's dark and woofie yeah
it's dark yeah and then uh count get like unique tone yeah everybody uses one yeah like even like if it
some EQ work.
It sounds kind of same.
Yeah, totally.
So I'm just, I don't hate people like, yeah.
I'm not trying to use whatever in love.
Okay.
I got you.
How did you in Santa meet?
That's 61?
That was like a 10 years ago.
Okay.
Some shows.
Yeah.
You met at shows?
Yeah.
Cool.
She, were you good at you mosh?
Spin kick?
No.
No.
You just love the music.
Yes.
Oh yeah.
You got to eat about a
24 more.
Oh, I'm sorry, 27 more.
You do that?
Not so easy,
I'm trying.
Did you, do you think
when you met him,
was he
chasing after you
affectionately,
immediately?
Was he like,
Santa, please?
Was it love at first sight?
I think he just being a while.
Yeah.
First since the first, like, uh, meet.
It took some time.
Yeah, to actually talk, you know.
How did it happen?
Who, who, who initiated it?
We never have couples on, you know.
We just saw a, curious about love.
Uh, common friends, you know, at that show.
That was how we met.
And then, like, uh, maybe six months later or sometime.
We met again, different show.
and you asked her out on a date
yeah yeah yeah
do you remember your first date
yes I remember
what did you do
actually
actually
first time
he's scared
a little bit
yeah yeah
yeah look at him
farting
I've heard him fart
I'm just joking
and then after that
so silly
yes
yeah very silly
nice guy
nice guy
Okay
Honorable
But the first day
Did you go out to dinner?
So she
She used to live far from me
In Kyushu
Like Fukuoka

1,000 kilometers away
Oh wow
500 miles
Oh wow
Yeah
Santa how did you discover
heavy music
How did you discover
How did you discover heavy music
In general
First time
First time hearing heavy.
Maybe 30, 38, H, 30 old year.
When you were 30?
30 old year.
Okay.
So, not hardcore.
Yeah, yeah.
But metal?
No metal.
Punk.
No, Japanese.
You know, one o'clock?
One o'clock.
Oh, that's just general rock stuff.
Oh, rock.
Rock.
Yeah.
There's a band.
One rock rock.
One okay rock.
Okay.
It was a band name, yeah.
It's like a stadium band.
Okay, okay.
So you went from that and you found heavy music?
Yes.
She said 13 years old.
Yeah, okay, 13 years old.
Very young, she got into rock.
I think so.
She's been a rocker.
Like you, everyone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's see.
How did you do it?
How did you do it, 89?
Idiot.
It's crazy.
It is crazy.
Taylor, somebody asked if you're on good terms with Glenn Benton.
He don't know who the hell I am.
Glenn doesn't?
No.
There was a weird, did I tell the story I'm here?
I don't.
Like, he just, like, trashed a green room and blamed it on us one time.
Who?
Crematorium.
On crevatorium.
Yeah.
And, uh...
But he was just rib.
He was ribbing, but the venue didn't think so.
Right.
And, uh, there's a video.
of it online.
Yeah.
Yeah,
but he was just like
through all the shit
at us while we're playing.
Like he was playing around.
Yeah.
Grimbing,
but then right,
but then somehow
none of the venue
people saw that
and then
it just blamed it on us
when the show was over
or he tried to blame him.
Yeah.
Good.
Wasn't it that big of a good.
It was like bread.
Glenn.
Yeah.
Chill.
Cool.
Yeah, totally.
Taylor, what's the angriest you've ever been at me?
I'd yell at them once a week.
But I can tell you one that I still feel bad about.
It's probably the same one.
Was it at the KCDia factory on the first tour we ever did?
Oh, is it the van with the creatures?
Yes, that's what I was going.
That was a bad one.
I'll tell that story.
I don't remember the context.
This is, I've,
Gen 1 iPhone.
Yeah.
We both had it.
With the silver and the black.
And I think it was the first version that had a map on it.
3GG.
And we were trying to find something.
We're on torque.
So this is like, oh, like what do we?
Yeah.
And I'm trying to explain to him.
He's getting frustrated with the phone.
I'm trying to explain to something.
Or to him.
And then I show him my phone to say, look, you just do it like this.
And he smacks it out of my hand.
Oh, man.
That was a mistake.
Without even thinking about it, just went,
D-D-K.
But I have no memory of it.
But he,
he got mad,
even more mad,
jumped over the seat.
And it's like,
Kyle.
Yeah,
Kyle and.
Backwards?
Backwards?
That's what you could be facing?
It was not good.
I went to,
like,
I went to like,
like,
windmill him.
And he just went like,
no,
he literally dove,
dove into a headlock.
Yeah.
Is there anything?
And I was like, you got to stop.
You got to stop.
And the van's full.
And I barely know them.
Everybody's watching.
I barely know Kyle or like any or anybody.
And then we pull over and we go to Taco Bell and I'm bummed about it.
He's bummed about it.
And he's like, he goes, brother shouldn't eat each other, man.
And then I felt, I felt bad and took him to Taco Bell and the bottom Taco Bell.
There we go.
Yeah, you got me a two-d-bri-meal deal from Taco Bowl.
No, you ate.
You ate good.
rightfully so I didn't remember the context but I do remember that
but I there was another time where at the KCDia factory
I don't see I don't recall I think it was in Centralia Washington
is it was KCadia if you're watching if you're in
when we played in the Ksadia we played the Ksidiya
we played the Ksidiya factory you there was a bunch of cash
and you were giving me a bunch of grief about this merch money
you remember this no
I don't know why I did it
But you were pissing me off
For some reason
I think you were being mean
Is the same tour?
No this was different
This was a Soul Search Minus
Tour
Okay okay
Um
And there was all this cash
And I just threw it
It was like
Because he was like
I don't know why
But he was asking me for it
And we were frustrated with each other
About something else
And I just like
Wow
And he was so mad at me
52 pickup
It was 50 to pick up with like
100 of dollar of merch money.
Yeah, it was probably one.
It was probably legit like $806.
Yeah.
But that was the merch night.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I wasn't not been that max.
I don't remember that at all.
Yeah, that was, okay, that's because that one I was immediately like,
shouldn't have done that.
How you doing, Zuma?
I'm still eating.
You know that you remember when you said,
I'm still about eating.
You said once in a time that the Midwest has no honor.
Because they have no honor.
Do you
What are you referring to when you say the Midwest?
Do you still feel that way?
Thank you.
Like,
yeah, I think so.
Like middle of nowhere Midwest?
Yeah,
yeah, yeah, some...
Not Chicago.
But the people that are...
The people that are crazy,
like Ohio, small town.
But when you get to the show,
the people that go to your shows,
they have honor.
I mean, they do.
Yeah.
But they love what I said, you know?
Yeah.
So they often come up to me like,
yo, we have no honor.
How do you think?
I was like, yeah, you don't.
So they're living the bit.
Yeah.
That's good.
So you think Midwest has honor?
Midwest.
Chicago or that.
On the middle.
Kentucky.
Oh.
Good?
Yeah.
Louisville is beautiful.
Yeah.
That is certifiable Midwest.
Yeah.
Big time.
All right.
Let's get some other questions going.
here.
Who did it all of those?
That was Patreon.
That was all Patreon.

Fun site.
Some shit.
Yeah.

Just for us.
You can ask them stuff too.

Zooma,

That was tricked.
You're like,
you cheated.
I did.
I don't know.
Do you know what it was?
I actually figured this out.
So Brain Dead, very grateful for obviously having us and being a good venue and being so cool.
They have a 5G modem with an extender in the hallway.
How many connections are on that at once?
Because we had my iPad and there are three controllers, as was my phone, your phone, everyone's phones on this fucking Wi-Fi.
That was the delay.
Because I tested it again when I got back to the hotel, which also isn't great and it was instant.
Just got to do like a hotel buzz, like a...
No, I got a plane.
We got a...
True, just like raising hands kind of thing.
Careful with that one.
That was...
Yeah, you can't do that.
Yeah.
That's hands, bro.
True, true.
Hey.
They're fine, you know?
Did you have fun at Jeopardy?

They're going to see all of you when you puke into that bowl a little later.
Yeah.
What's, yeah, 63.

It's hilarious.
Your body, have you noticed that your body stops producing saliva?
Yeah, there's no spit.
64.
604.
25 more, dude.
And that's including the three or four of the same eight.
I feel bad, and I had 33.
33?
Yes.
I feel bad.
Yeah, it's bad.
This is not a good thing.
I wish I had some fries at least to, like, no, no, no.

Is that for us or for them?
I think it's for everybody.
That not a lot of people know about it.
I got put onto the Fontaine's D.C.
Yeah, it's good.
That's like the biggest band.
I know.
Oh, that not people don't know about it.
I thought it meant that people might not suspect.
Everyone knows.
I misunderstood.
They don't know that I like this.
They don't know the biggest band on the planet.
Again, I love the Firestarter record that's about to come out.
Finally.
They had a really good set last night.
They did.
They're the best.
I'm going to look at my phone.
You recently added.
Oh, I got, yeah.
I love to see bands like start today doing really long tours in America.
It's a good feeling.
What do I like?
I like the dynamite record a lot.
So I'll start today at the Turnstall show,
and they killed it in Alec Mosh really hard.
Yeah, see, that's what's all about.
Brand new bands that not a lot of people know about.
Brand new?
Is it brand?
No, it just says new bands.
That not a lot of people know about it.
That's the part I want to.
I got one that Dave Woody turned me on to,
which is they're called Aronzi Pizzou.
That sounds awesome.
It's like weird.
It's weird.
It's weird.
black metal from
Finland.
Pretty sick.
Oh, Cold Inside from Finland.
One of my favorite European hardcore bands of all time.
Nobody knows Cold Inside.
And there's like,
it's like blues scale.
He occasionally sings and he has an incredible voice.
But overall, it's just like really interesting
New York hardcore type of shit.
Amazing band.
I got into this ambient artist
that I had to look up because the name is 703, 8663, 4357.
867.
And the record is called Neo7.
It's just really nice, pleasant kind of soundscapey stuff.
Very cool.
I listen to it a lot.
Not unknown at all, but the suede self-titled has been...
You're obsessed, huh? Consuming.
He needs a shirt to me.
I need a suede shirt.
If you got a shirt from self-title, we're coming up.
If you got the animal nitrate torso, I need it.
Probably not going to hit the Mad Vintage shelf.
No, it won't.
He's aware.
I already text Lou Geh.
Yeah, he knows.
You get this.
It's mine.
Nice.
New bands that nobody knows about that.
You really like.
I'm trying to think,
but I'm not sure.
Do you listen to stuff other than heavy music, Zuma?
Not really.
I only like Japanese pop stuff.
Oh, you do?
I do.
But old one, you know?
Sure.
Class.
Not like new stuff, you know?
So I'm mostly I'm not good at keeping that with newer music.
Maybe happy music
I'm listening
What's like an old school Japanese pop artist
That you like?
Like Hikaru Tata
Do you know her?
I feel like I've absolutely heard that
It's automatically
So many

Something like that
Yeah
Thank you.
Everybody in the peanut gallery just went on that one.
Everybody went on.
Started Mosham.
Do you have any favorite new bands?
No.
Maybe a new Japanese band that you want to tell people about.
Oh, yeah.
There's a band from Osaka called T-I-V-E.
Okay.
Do you see that how do you spell?
How would you spell?
What would you pronounce?
Ty.
Ty.
T-I-R-T-R-T-V.
Yeah.
I thought Tyve, but like that.
Thief or whatever.
I guess if it's like motive, maybe.
Okay.
They are like kind of like new or town style stuff.
Oh, okay.
Cool.
But they have, you know, Japanese lyrics and then some cool scale, you know.
So I'm not, I'm more, normally I'm like heavy music.
Yeah.
But I do like them.
Okay.
They open for town style when they pray Japan.
Oh, cool.
That's awesome.
So I think they, one.

Yeah, I love it.
And you're funny.
You're funny.
Isn't it why you say it?
Yeah, but it's just the way you say it.
That is funny.
Yeah, you didn't say anything.
It's your delivery.
And your English is kind of British.
So you'll be like, this is shit.
Yeah.
I mean, because everyone in Japan learned British English.
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
But when I started talking, I started like learning conversation.
That was always like with American people.
So my English is like kind of mixed up, you know.
Do you have any favorite things that Zuma does?

Don't make...
Yeah.
You got to try next time, yeah.
That's so many calories.
That's more calories.
That's more calories.
That's more calories.
Because it's no protein.
Right.
It's all fat.
I could eat eight of those.
One sleeve.
You know, the waffle sandwich?
The waffle ice cream sandwich.
In here?
On Japan, the one that's like this big with the walk.
Monaca, yeah.
Oh, my God.
With the chocolate inside?
There's a neapolitan.
I saw their American thing until I started coming over here.
No, no.
I never seen.
Oh, we have his Snickers.
Yeah.
Well, the classic ice cream sandwich, the little shitty.
Oh, that's a goaded.
But it's like the best ever.
Fat boy?
What is it?
The Fat boy is unbelievable.
Classic.
You like Red Bean?
I made Fat Boy minis.
Red Bean?
Do you like Red Bean?
Oh, lead beans.
Sweet lead bean?
Yeah.
Yes.
So good.
One more.
He's at 66.
Oh, my God.
Pathetic
How loud is the fart in there?
What do you say?
He's allowed?
Do you have
Taylor, do you have a favorite
This is a crazy question
Favorite record you've ever produced
Worked on and why?
Can't be one of your own?
Most important.
Can't be one of your own?
Most important.
Like some, yeah, the one that you look back
and go like that, that changed things.
Can't be one of your own.
I'll do that.
And you've said this about rotting out
Street prowl.
that's that's that was a pivotal one i'm going to do the one after that which is going to be
surprising the second downpresser record the long goodbye is the long goodbye is that a black
on who i that's not the first one that's the first one that's the first one with the head it's no it's like
a guy walking away it's a shant tagger cover oh yeah that there was like it wasn't because of
anything other than like while i was doing the record i like it was one of the times where i felt
like I knew what I was doing for the first time.
Interesting.
10 years into doing it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But it was like, oh, like, I'm, I'm confident and I really, like, I listen to a record and I just love it.
Yeah, I agree.
Whoa.
I love the way it sounds.
And now it's like special because of KL being on and stuff.
So, yeah, like, I remember in the middle of that record being like, this thing is incredible.
Wow.
And then COVID kind of.
And then COVID, it came out right when COVID hit it and just kind of.
Beautiful.
Sat back a little bit.
Love that.
Yeah, isn't that the best?
That's good.
Can I ask something to you guys?
Please, please, please.
What's your
Colin Ball?
What's your favorite record
mixed by him?
Maybe, yeah, mixed
unrecorded or just mixed?
Mixed.
Yes, what is it?
Did you do the Skin Father, right?
Yeah.
That's my favorite.
Which one?
Oh, the one.
Skin Father, LP.
None will mourn.
Yeah.
That one's called.
Mixed by him.
Or like a complete
Taylor Young coach.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
At least he has to be mixed by him.
Like, my favorite are the one that I think is his best work.
Do you know?
Your favorite.
My favorite is in love, there isn't a law.
Okay.
Like, that and, and the Preacher Man single.
What do you think about the remix?
I love the remix.
I love the remix.
I think it sounds.
Maybe you haven't popped it on as much.
I haven't popped it on as much or since, you know, you first did it.
I tried to keep it pretty close.
Yeah, I would say it's pretty close.
nothing stands out, but I just remember to me that are like, oh, I fixed that.
Gotcha.
That makes sense.
Yeah.
When I heard the preacher man, I've said this a billion times, but when I, when the first single happened, I saw you guys play, this is hardcore, early in the day, 2012.
And I was like, I'm going to check that out.
And because I had heard sleep therapy, I had heard the other stuff, it didn't click.
The way it was presented, clicked.
And that was a pivotal thing for like our friendships.
as well because I was like, oh, I get these guys now.
I do remember being on tour in Europe the first time
and playing sleep therapy
and everybody in Hinesweig going on.
We didn't.
It really just didn't connect.
It just didn't.
It's happening to this day.
We got a lot better right after that.
We did.
Objectively.
This is a tough one.
It's a tough one.
It's not easy to understand.
I've heard them all.
No, I agree.
I heard them all at the worst and best thing.
and best they've ever sounded.
What's the like a remix of this harmony?
Like you put out after during pandemic.
Oh, the demo version.
The zero some shit.
Yeah.
That's good mix to me.
I agree.
Like a heavier, you know?
Yeah.
And that's what was really,
the original one is like clear, but.
Yeah.
That's why we, we felt that way too.
And that's why we put it out after, even though the vocals are new.
We've talked about that.
Yeah.
My favorite record he's ever.
producer makes it's hard for it's tough because like to say nice things because i in love there's a law
is probably my answer as well like i i i felt like that was the first time i listened to something
that i sang on was like okay this is good yeah you know um you can hear absolutely everything
like it's very the clarity is insane while still being hard i love the remix i love the remix i love the
I need a revisit.
I love the remix.
I want to know your thoughts later.
Yeah, I need to revisit.
I for sure listen to it when you put it out.
Yeah.
You know.
But something that I'm not in is a good, is it good.
I mean, songs of sufferings.
That's your favorite?
All time.
I mean, I love the music and that helps making my favorite.
It's 13 years old.
Just think about some stuff you've done recently.
Oh, dude.
The first RJC LP I really like.
Crime and Punishment.
Yeah, Crime and Punishment.
sounds fucking insane.
Hell yeah.
The Full of Hell record you mix
sounds insane.
I like that one a lot.
I also really like
Life Run of the Gun.
Didn't mix that.
You didn't?
Produced it.
You produced it.
Yeah.
Great.
Like it a lot.
Love it too.
That would be my most recent answer, I think.
New Age of Apocalypse sounds really good.
Oh, hell yeah.
Ruralty record sounds amazing.
I think that the newest EP is one of the
sounding things.
It is and it
befits the band
to the degree
where we fought about it
a little bit.
How so?
Where he was like
can you do this
to the mix
and I was like
no I cannot.
Just a little bit.
He's a producer guy.
Just a little bit
where it was like
listen
this sounds so good
don't touch it.
Okay let's see
what we got here.
Six and a half.
He was like
I'm gonna cry.
Do something
what I want
and he was like
trust me.
Trust me.
I was like, okay.
And then.
But later, I'll let you do wherever you want.
Did I tell you about someone hit me up for the mastering or no?
For that record?
Yeah.
Oh, really?
So some guy from, I'm not going to say name.
Oh, you did tell me that.
More like I don't remember the name, but some guy from like somewhere in Europe.
He sent a cold message about mastering.
He said, hey, I really liked this record.
the master's bad here's it kind of yeah i can do better blah blah blah yeah yeah
mick tons had mastered the personify royal soundtrack so he's a mastering god yeah yeah so and then he
provided me the sample master so it's like a master or master kind of thing yeah and listen to it
it's sounding big honestly loud it's loud but it's sounding like fucking like death go yeah the different
way of like loud you know just like a yitch yeah in uh the same thing
Even now it might be like just,
no, like,
dynamic.
Yeah.
So I said,
no.
Of course.
When we first started,
there was a dude who did like
Megadeth and Green Day records.
Who like sent us a mix.
Basically,
he like said,
let me try this.
And then I,
dude,
I look back at that and I think,
that thing sounded pretty sick.
Listening to it now unmastered,
it sounded pretty good.
But it was like,
so not what we wanted at the time.
At the time,
it was like,
Yeah.
Right.
Okay, loser.
We sent him a folder that had three songs in it, and we said, do either this song or this song.
And he did the one we didn't say.
He did the worst one.
He did like voluntary confinement, like the song that we didn't care about at all.
Yeah.
And it was like, okay, I didn't even want to hear that.
Why would you do that?
If we were in a zombie apocalypse and we have to pick one person to try and fight off the zombies and survive with, who would it be?
You have to pick Sanna.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
To fight off zombies?
Yes.
But that doesn't necessarily imply she's dead.
No, she doesn't.
I guess you guys can, you're both alive and you can both pick one person.
Who do you think in Japan is going to help you fight off zombie apocalypse?
Who's going to help me?
Yeah.
Manny is going to not help me for sure.
He's going to get away in five seconds.
Going to ramen shops?
before he dies
one more
just one more ball you know
yeah
I don't know
who would you pick
Saina
Zama
okay
yeah that's fair
good answer
A bunch of people
owe me
in Japan you know
not like a financial
you know
yeah
like things
you know
okay
so I think some
I hope
someone will help me
okay
maybe not
because at least they can do
I think I would pick
like
Bearer Grills or something
Oh no it says from hardcore world
Fuck yeah I saw him at a
Yeah
To try specifically to try and fight off zombies and survive with I would pick Alec Faber
For sure Jared Carmen
Oh Survivor did 101
I mean besides Kyla who's pretty good of Fortnite now
That's what I'm saying
If I get Lana I get I get access to
The family arsenal
Okay okay
Okay yeah that's good
So we're good.
I'm taking Lana and I'm taking it.
And Alec, because.
Well, I'm coming then.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're in there.
That's who I would go.
I would actually know, I would, if you have Alec, I'll meet you there with Mike.
Oh, dude.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah.
We're good to go.
We're reluctantly never.
And we know Mike would never eat us.
That's true.
He's vegan.
That's true.
You think there's vegans in the zombie apocalypse?
I think so.
Yeah.
I think at the very least, Brady would absolutely still be vegan.
I think they would.
would rather cook up a sunflower than
and you know damn well he could make it
it work. I didn't even think about
zombie can be vegan too.
Yeah. Yeah. Imagine a
zombie, a vegan zombie's first bite
of meat is a human. It would hit
crazy.
They're going to look for tofu
gross and stuff? Yeah, I don't think so.
I think you're right.
Tofu!
Yeah, just eating grass.
It's funny.
How, this is
a really good question. How is
hardcore culture perceived by the public in Japan?
How do we stay away from?
Do they think you're freaks?
Do regular salary man think you're freak?
Regular people in Japan, do they look at you and think like, oh, you are?
Yeah.
No honor.
How is it going?
So like, it's very, everything here with normal people is very like, oh, whatever.
You know, it's very, normal people want to be not normal.
bad.
Yes.
It depends where you are, though.
If you're in California, you can walk on your hands and you still be normal, but
like, if you're in middle of the country, you might run into some trouble.
You might stick out, but I still don't think, like, you'll still see, like, the server
at Chili's will have, like, a sleeve and stuff.
You know what I'm saying?
Especially the server.
You know what I mean?
So it's still, like, so common.
Yeah, but then I wasn't in a pink on the way home, you know?
Zero track.
Zero.
Zero.
Zero.
Yeah.
Yeah.
How about you?
I think, uh,
so people here always like, like, mind your business, you know?
Do not care about like strangers, you know?
They do their things.
We do our things.
But people in Japan in general, like, trying to cut in what someone's do so much, you know?
Like, uh.
So you have people bother?
you? I think so, yeah.
Really?
About your tattoos and stuff?
Not openly, but like they always do
say stuff online and shit, you know?
There's a lot show and it's so loud, fucking loud,
I'm going to call cops, kind of thing, you know?
People basically kind of impatient, you know?
Okay. Overall?
Over what people are doing, yeah?
Yeah.
Like something like, like, like, Santa, you have tattoos.
How is your experience in,
like regular society in Japan as a rocker tatted up woman?
I think so.
Okay.
I think so.
Because, uh,
nobody about her.
Okay.
So in public,
nothing would happen,
you know?
Just always online stuff,
I guess.
You'll look and you'll think like,
oh,
they're probably judging me.
But old ladies in the neighborhood.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Just like next door up here.
I'm, you know, like, open to talk with anyone kind of guy.
So my, our neighbor is like old, like a married couple, you know?
But we're cheating, you know?
They like you.
Not sure, like, what they think inside, but like, at least they do well to us, you know?
And then we try to be well to them.
Yeah.
Okay.
How are you feeling here, Zuma?
You've been holding that 68th nugget for about eight minutes.

One time I went during history, I farted on him.
He didn't even know until I.
I guess.
On him?
Like butt to skin?
It's like a...
Like here.
Oh, no.
That's a song.
Why are you so mean that people you're told with?

dude fuck
what's he saying
you're not giving up
no honor in Japanese
Oh, got a dress.
Wait a minute.
There has to be like a time limit at some point for this.
How long we've been going?
Because we could eat a hundred hours,
eight hour day.
Hour 45?
So that's already 15 minutes.
Hour 45?
Holy shit.
You take an hour and a half?
Hour and a half to eat 19 more than that.
I think I'm talking, we're talking too much.
No, I was talking.
I was like this.
Chewing his ear off.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're blowing it.
Oh, 70 and 71.
That's a big gap between 70 and 71.
That's slowing down.
How you doing?
Don't you shoot that?
Don't throw that thing to me.
Put it down.
Point that barrel away from me.
Dude, I'm just sitting on my chair.
You're shitting on his chair.
This is not delicious anymore.
No, no.
It was not delicious at 30.
That's true.
71 is pretty good, Zuma.
It's pretty good.
We'll keep going.
Get to 75.
Sure.
We should make more people try this.
Maybe Martin.
I would love that.
I think he would do pretty well.
The person I think would beat me as George from Dead Body.
Oh, he could eat the...
I think he would eat the 200.
Legit is the best eater I've ever met.
He might get sick of it.
He puts it down.
Yeah, he's insane.

When?
Why did you shave your head?
It just felt like it was time.
I was the only guy who praised his hairstyle.
Every time I got a haircut, no joke.
I wouldn't post about it.
He would respond and be like,
haircut looks good, bro.
Oh.
He really cares.
I feel as though I was supportive.
Yeah, I mean, you...
Yeah, 100%.
He's also asking when am I going to get a haircut.
He noticed when, like, my wife would not.
Oh, I see.

Down that time, I guess.

No, just the twin reverbs.
Clean.
Clean is has a lot more headroom.
How many watts is that?

And it'll,
this one's 80.
They sell it in almost every watt.
It'll be 20.
You can do up to 85.
I think they might have a 120.
Imagine a 300 watt twin reverb.
I mean, that will be like.
louder than any other amp in here.
That's crazy.
It's brutal.
It's crazy.
So fucking loud.
What's your favorite amp?
That's not a Marshall.
Because I know the JMP is the best amp ever.
I like the heavy metal.
I don't know if it's on camera.
I like the heavy metal warfare a lot, Chicago.
Dean Costello Amplification.
But I also like the Mesa DC-10, which is the Bradboat right special.
Is that 100-watt-1?
Yeah.
Yeah, they're dope.
What's your favorite ant?
100 watts, not 100 nuggets.
Yeah.
Because the DC5 is popular in Japan.
Yeah, it's easy to access.
You should get one because they sound good.
True.
But the 50 Cal is almost the same as the DC5.
You give up or what?
Can I have a box to go to the game?
No, no, no, no.
You can have them.
No, I'm joking.
I'm not going to eat nuggets for the next three months.
Yeah.

Respectable

When are you going back to the UK
I don't know
You should go

Why?
They like us
But they don't love us
They have their own cruelty
That's why
Who's that with the sea

The homie bolt for our son

Bigger bands.

Support in Europe is the best.
As long as it's not crazy, stupid bustle that like, the life, that we have to lose money
from the beginning, I'm going to be in.
I don't like those.
Yeah.
Do not like offer fucking like 300 euro every day, but 500 every day for the bus.
That's how they all do it.
I just had to say no to one of those.
That's scum.
I tried to explain.
that we've never done that.
Yeah, never.
You don't need to do that.
But in the metal world,
they think that's what you're supposed to do
to get started.
To get going, yeah.
To that, I say,
fuck you.
I disagree.
I believe you can go and just have your own shows
that are smaller and get one where you're worth that.
You don't need to pay to play anything anywhere in the world.
No.
