Matt Pike should have a podcast.
louderthangod PikeCast
I’d listen to it
He seems like such a genuine, awesome guy. Like, zero pretensions. Crazy ideas, total out of the box thinking, but no garbage.
That was my impression also. The world needs these kind of humble artists and deep thinkers. :)
If Matt Pike isn't the new Lemmy, then who the fuck is?
Real talk. :)
Definitely, hes Lemmys lost child
Yggdrasil Smog that would be wino
There’ll never be another Lemmy, but Matt clearly does wear some of his influences on his sleeve, Lemmy being an obvious choice. I am a huge fan of HOF’s no frills approach to playing metal. Keep it simple, loud and fast…
matt is slowly turning into lemmy hahaha
That's awesome you say that because I always thought he was the American version of Lemmy haha. RIP LEMMY
gabattaz1 they’re just they’re own guys. Both free spirited aging punks.
Great interview…it is nice hearing some just regular talk with a musician. Christina seemed to be able to make Matt comfortable enough to just kinda of talk without any pretensions, which personally I appreciate greatly.
Kyuss = Sativa
Sleep = Indica
You know I’m right
Kyuss=mescaline
Sleep=lsd and mushrooms
High on Fire= Crack Cocaine/Crystal Meth
So glad they're are real people like Matt pike out there making honest heavy music...🤘
So laid back, yet so fucking intelligent
I could watch this guy's interviews all day. The dude
These interviews with Matt, show how laid back and deep he really is. That's the same with his music deep and honest!
watched both parts & this is a great interview. Matt is just a real fascinating guy. thank you
thank you!
Thanx 4 the great interview!
Been a HOF/Sleep/M.Pike fan for a loooooooong time!

Matt Pike is such a cool dude! Awesome guitarist and I love the Reptilian themes.
+mondola Yeah I think it's rad he does that much research when writing a record ... lyrics are such a lost art. There are a few real poets around these days, but man it's a dying art, really thoughtful music.
+The Void AU Is it bad that I prefer instrumental more than lyrical music?
As my profile picture would suggest, I love Pelican, but they only have one song with vocals. Elder and Earthless are some of my favourite bands, and Elder uses vocals sparingly. Same with Sleep. I never really listen to lyrics myself. Each to their own though. I prefer to be taken away by the music; vocals can play a part in that as well, obviously haha.
+Arthur Henden Hey I feel you on this ... I love writing and reading so I love words ... but you have a very valid point. It's nice to have an intricate wall of noise wash over you sometimes hey.
Mad respect. 2.5 years off the sauce and shit can I relate. Keep on keeping on. I thoroughly enjoyed this interview as she had asked some very insightful questions and had a real connection. Well done
a really thoughtful and interesting interview. I never liked these "typical" hows the tour, when is the new album coming type of interviews where the artists themselves feel uncomfortable most of the time. So it was very good to see you two just talking about interesting stuff. Thank you :D
Thank you!!
Agreed. It seemed like people shooting the shit rather than a run of the mill interview.
this is so awesome--thank you Christina!!-
+metalby c no worries! Was a blast to film!
started watching matt pike interviews a few days ago , found out about him through loudwire and listened to some sleep stuff and some high on fire stuff , and started the interview search , the more interviews i see the more i love this guy :D great songwriter , great singer , awesome open minded personality ! that dude is going to be the next big legend in rock and metal :D
Damn I didnt know Matt was a Lovecraft fan too. This interview is getting better and better.
Fuck Facebook! I love this guy!
Some deep stuff! I like his descision to stay clear of social media..It's not worth anything for the most part, anyway. Oh man, I need to see HOF again..Last time was half a year ago but that's half a year too much!!
+Hanns Rhinesdale Yeah dude! They were so so good at the show after this interview!
Matt is honestly, of all musicians/artists that I am aware of, gives the most thoughtful and ruminating interviews. Every one I have ever watched is like philosophy, zen, politics, existentialism, and a level of emotional transparency without pretense that is quite cathartic. You know, like listening to a Sleep or High on Fire record. Great interview.
+Casey Christopher Yeah dude! As someone who has done them for a long time, have to say he is one of my all time favourites for thoughtful answers and straight honesty. Rad that he also makes such sick music. Thanks for watching! :)
Very nice nterview! You two should do a podcast great banter with substance!
+Fredrik L Hey thank you! I just started one! Here's the link, check it out, subscribe, review if you like it! itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/riffing-with-christina/id1076600690?mt=2 :)
Ahi thanks! Will check it out!
What are your aims with the podcast?
+Fredrik L share long conversations with interesting creative people. Just seems a great format for long chats, and I love a few interview podcasts dearly. Favourite interviewers are Joe Rogan, Howard Stern and Australian Andrew Denton (check out his show Enough Rope, also doing a project with Louis CK at the moment). Thanks again :)
I love this one!
+Ryan Hale thanks for watching! Matt is always a good chat!
@Christina is that a meow shirt you're wearing? Great band. Their newer band Experimental dental school was amazing
look like the Legends are true that Mr Pike owns a few T-shirts here and there
Not huge on Tattooing any Actor on my body but if i have to choose one
it could be either Viggo as ARAGORN or Oldman as DRACULA
Matt Pike!! The Man!!! great interview Christina.
awesome interview
+Mustachhe Thank you!
cool interview.. always had a lot of respect for Matt.. definitely one of the most down to earth people in the music industry. Never acts like he's superior like a good amount of them do, you can tell he's a fan just as much as anyone else is. Also seems more grateful for his fans than a lot of musicians do. Glad to see he's cleaned his act up, if anything just stick to weed, anything else just isn't worth it in the long run. Cool interview, just a suggestion that it'd be a lot better if you had a second mic haha.
This dude's ate the fuck up.
Kyuss reppin' \m/
+Arthur Henden Kyuss foreverrr
Matt is kinda Lemmy and Iommi in one person.Think there's a "new" Metal-legend in the make here.Absolutely cool guy btw, met him twice.Totally cool and humble person...
Pike fucking rules!
Stoked to hear there is new Sleep music on the horizon!
+Stephen J Me too! ARGH the show a couple years ago was so so sweet
+The Void AU Im going to try to see them in Philadelphia this year hopefully they play something new as an interlude or something rad like that.
+Kidbehinda invisibletoothbrush haha no doubt the right way to do it... I wish they'd tour australia with eyehategod and coc so so much
+Kidbehinda invisibletoothbrush Oh man that would have been amazing! Heaps jealous. Been thinking I have to get to the USA this year ... their massive tour at the moment is a big reason to go! But man, 1987 would have been killer!
Best interview so far with Pike...Christina so hot and great interviewer.
Thank you!
Great interview. Wish you could do a biopic on him :D
Me too :)
My idol 😭
very interesting interview! can anyone tell me the closing theme's name?
+JuanchoFsa haha thank you! Well, my co-producer/composer/friend Paul Dawkins wrote that riff for me, for the show. I can check it's name, but it's original music. Glad you like it! :)
A mic for each next, pls, thx.
still like the interview, though.
I did it on my own and couldn’t afford a 2nd mic or lapels. A second one of those would be too much of a risk on my own. Glad u like it, but if the set up is limited and it’s a one person thing ... it’s probably a resources issue
@@TheVoidwithChristina fuck lapels. And I totally get having a lack of resources as a starving drummer. Kudos to you for the engaging interview; you're good at it.
Matt Pike for president!
you really need two mics !
+Tim V Thanks mate, but when I've set up the camera on a tripod and can't physically monitor audio with headphones as I'm on camera, it's way safer that I control the microphone than he get off mic on his mic and then the audio is gone. I usually have someone else shoot it ... it's a different story if you have someone monitoring audio. But thanks for the feedback!
Dude knows he's stuff!
Illuminati sleep riffs
Matt is a wizard.....no doubt about it!
Bill Nye shreds \m/
damn if matt pike went on joe rogan...
Illuminati Italian tremolo speed metal
Matt is good podcast material :D
Yes indeed! This was available on the podcast too. Will have him back on the podcast soon for sure :) new HOF record slays! Subscribe if you feel so inclined: itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/the-void-with-christina-michele/id1076600690?mt=2
@@TheVoidwithChristina Thanks for answering. I enjoyed your style I feel Matt had time to totally express himself. He is really interesting and so real, love him
Fuck yeah Matt I am glad you know whats up with this world that's full of lies...Props to you to Christina...Keep them coming great interviews..
+Daveyboy Thanks mate! Appreciate the support!
Anybody else mixes his voice with Phil Anselmo's one?
holy shit the britney spears part is wild, lol.
Matt Pike should be on Joe Rogan Podcast
his in occult too, he talks about John Dee
I feel like the foil hat pic is people laughing with him not making fun of him
Tattoos thatsxwherexheis at
Pocket Jesus.
οταν λες παρανοιες για να εντυπωσιασεις το κομενακι
Throw away your pocket Jesus!!
+Ryan Hale Haha so much!! Fuck the staring at your screen era! Let's all hang in a cave and commune with dark spirits! :)
I know right?! Lets!
That actually sounds pretty interesting!
I have no idea about relationship stats of either of these two, but she should ask him for his hand in marriage. yeah i said it.
Matt pike is cool, but this chick is rad
This is the hottest you have looked Christina...Just my opinion...yooowhoooo...hahaha!!!!!
Wish weed would talk a little less from his mouth. Illuminati and that kind of bullshit. However, with the riffs he creates he's allowed to believe anything he wants.
Kinda looks like 80's James Hetfield
she needs to learn how not to interrupt
And get 2 mic's.
thanks for the feedback but I shot this solo and it is too much of a risk to rely on an interview subject's mic technique without someone to monitor audio. And yeah ... I occasionally interject too much but it didn't seem to bother him as we hung out for about an hour. Thanks for watching :)
The Void with Christina People want to critique you as they sit on thier ass doing mediocre things with thier lives while you are kicking ass! I enjoyed the interview and so have many before me. Don't change a thing, your decisions have gotten you to where you are. Trust yourself.
Whoa dude, thank you so much! What a wonderful thing to say. Really appreciate the support. Loved this interview. :)
You always respond with an adroit term or additional thought to the subject! Never give up.
Pretty sure the 4 heart transplants is a hoax.
The guy is a horrible person but he did not have 4 heart transplants.
No idea what you're talking about on either point. Dude is lovely, and the only person I've EVER heard of having multiple heart transplants is 99 year old billionaire David Rockefeller, one of the most obscenely wealthy people on the planet. Have ZERO idea how you could confuse the two, but hey.
The Void with Christina Was talking about rockerfeller on both comments, sorry if I was being unclear.
Haha oh man. I was like, what the fuck? Haha wouldn't we have seen the scars?! Sorry, I was just confused. But yeah... that shit is real. Dude is 99. He can have a zillion of those. He'll probably be a robot and live to be a million. The world is fucked up.
I'd rather believe the robot story :p, 4 heart transplants would do more harm than good
