We agreed to talk politics right before we sat down. Elections were in full swing at the time and Daron thought it would be a good idea. Great guy, fun interview.
Rick, if you have the time I was wondering, does your job seem like it's more work or fun? How hard is it to work with all the different artists you have worked with? how many of them come in with good ideas and you don't have to play the third ear and tell them what will work and what won't? From his solo work oh, it seems like he has a good grasp on the entire process and I was just wondering if that something that was naturally occurring or that he possibly learned along the way
@@Cognitively_m_paired_4_Kamala Hey Robert apologies for taking forever to get back to you. Every interview is fun. The idea that part of my gig is to talk to artists who have real influence is fun and interesting. I go into every interview with more questions than I know that I'll get to as I've found the best ones don't follow the track in your head going in. It's important to listen first, then ask questions. And if whoever you're interviewing feels like talking about something other than what they do, it can make things even more compelling. Personally I like to ask them what's "taboo" before we start talking. I interviewed Mike Ness of Social Distortion years ago and asked ahead of time. He didn't want to talk about recent personal issues but was down with talking about the passing of his best friend and Social D co-founder Dennis. I also go into interviews reminding myself that anyone can be having a bad day- rock star or not so if/when I get the vibe that whoever I'm talking with doesn't really want to be there, I keep things short and get the basics. Daron is wicked smart and was up for anything. He was also so easy to chat with. He caught up with me a few hours later and thanked me as well. Cheers Robert
@@sagesarabia5053 Hi Sage. He might not have liked how I phrased the question. I really don’t know. Daron was a great interview either way and we had a good time talking. Happy New Year!
"Religion can be a beautiful thing for an individual, but when it becomes organized, that's when religion starts taking an ugly turn, to me." Nicely worded. :)
the power cable of the rec equipment was only 3 feet long and the only power plug was on the other side of the room so they moved they sofa infront of the door ... I know because I was there hiding behind the book shelf
I'm a born again believer of Jesus Christ and a sailor in The United States Navy and I really love what Daron said here. And I don't want organized religion to destroy a personal relationship with God, I fight against that. Smart man. And I love Nascar too! Bonus points
Well, most musicians like him, who get censored or banned or looked down on for their lyrics and musical style are often the most rational and open minded ones. But the world sees what TV and radio tells them to, so i have no faith in this species anymore. If a reporter would've asked Rihanna what she thinks about Obama or Trump, you would've had a video with 1.000.000.000.000.000.000 views.
They only did a couple of songs that are political. Such as "Byob" "Pluck" "Holy mountains" They even said it their selfs. They don't see the band as a political band, even tho some songs do have to do with politics. but i get you dude. I know what you mean.

@@Rubin66 why did he seem unhappy with your first question?
@@sagesarabia5053 Hi Sage. He might not have liked how I phrased the question. I really don’t know. Daron was a great interview either way and we had a good time talking. Happy New Year!
"I ain't got no beef with Obama" a great quote right there

"Religion can be a beautiful thing for an individual, but when it becomes organized, that's when religion starts taking an ugly turn, to me." Nicely worded. :)
amazing words. Totally agree!
Indeed that was a brilliant line.Spoken like a true Armenian,some of the first people to follow Christianity.
Sky That's why I don't really like to use that word. But yeah, I agree.
Well, religion NEEDS to be organized, or else it's only spiritually.
Ignorant in the subject Daron is, I must say.
Religion is toxic IMO.
this guy is beyond intelligent.
tbtltltd agreed strongly
Daron Malakain for president
he speaks reasonably
I totally agree with everything he says period
Daron....Thank you. your music came out when I was about 3. But thank you for making these master pieces. Only if I could have seen them live :(
I was born when their first album came out but I'm a hardcore fan now. Hope they make a new album
You still can.
this guy is a great guitarist,furthermore, his music makes me very happy in this fucking life, I would have liked to be a great musician like him
oscar diaz same here
So thats how he sounds like
Yeah. I always wondered. It's pretty much the same as his singing voice.
Depressed Feral chicken
Sexy
Am I the only one wondering why the couch is blocking a door in the background?
Lav! So they won't have any inturuption
Aww damnit now that's the only thing I can focus on lol
the power cable of the rec equipment was only 3 feet long and the only power plug was on the other side of the room so they moved they sofa infront of the door ... I know because I was there hiding behind the book shelf
aww he's lovely. so agree with him💜
There are so many iconic quotes from this interview.
"I ain't got no beef with Obama"
I'm a born again believer of Jesus Christ and a sailor in The United States Navy and I really love what Daron said here. And I don't want organized religion to destroy a personal relationship with God, I fight against that. Smart man. And I love Nascar too! Bonus points
This guy and the camera man is so lucky, they met Daron 💔
love how daron went from looking like Maisie Williams to Ron Jeremy.
I love him soooooooooooooooooooo muchhhhhhhhh Daron
I wish the interviewer would stop interrupting him and let the guy talk
"WHY DO THEY ALWAYS SEND THE POOR!"
Why do they always send the poor?
The princes are busy doing coke
I prefer Daron with short hair like in the chop suey video
Yup
Me too but hes still cute af
I love you, Daron
i finally saw Daron blink
Daron looks like a skinny Ron Jeremy in this.
Well, most musicians like him, who get censored or banned or looked down on for their lyrics and musical style are often the most rational and open minded ones. But the world sees what TV and radio tells them to, so i have no faith in this species anymore.

Daron loves Nascar! OMG, that makes me feel so much better about watching it myself. Thanks Daron
Watch this video at .5 speed and laugh your ass off.
finally he blinks
Daron !! God bless you !!
"They're kinda my peeps"
does that word mean "people"?
@@apricottree. Yes.
This is very accurate.
I’m surprised he didn’t say fellatio at least once.
I believe in Darontology : {D
Daron eats a bottle of caffeine pills every morning!! I’d love to have a beer with him and try to get him to mellow out. Lol
It's weird not seeing him and see every question with "fellatio" or "prostitution"
I understand your frustration my friend. I can't wait for their new album to come sometime this year(:
he is a proud armenian :)
They only did a couple of songs that are political. Such as "Byob" "Pluck" "Holy mountains" They even said it their selfs. They don't see the band as a political band, even tho some songs do have to do with politics. but i get you dude. I know what you mean.
wow those were actually wise words from daron. i thought by this stage in his career he was strung out on drugs and incapable of lucid thought
Darons Like fuckkkk here we go again. So the music
He sounds like Chris Griffin
I love daron!!!
Are the deftones playing in the background
Love you Daron ❤
he's so right
He's left
I will marry him
cutie. :)
CAVE MAN SHOWED HIMSELF!!!! :OOO
Use the simple minds, Oh daron i love you!!
daron é muito foda
Genius..
Jesus said "trust God, Not WAR"
God said a man who lays with another man shall be stoned.
Eddie Johansson I thought that was a mistranslation tho
Bro his look could kill at 5 secs in haha
i like the way he answer
Daron reminds me of Bobcat Goldwaith
He sounds like Hayleys boyfriend on American Dad
The bubblegum is actually very annoying.
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU talking about?
You’re right. I stopped chewing gum during interviews after this one :)
I'd rather chew a light bulb than watch NASCAR. Seriously. But otherwise, Daron is a cool dude.
Darooooooon *_*
Smart guy
Hearing daron say peeps is fucking weird hahahaha
STEAL THIS ALBUM
I share his point of view
im surprised he likes Obama.
....Keep playing guitar your are very good.
Barbarisms by Barbaras. Now it's by Karens. DISORDER!
Jimmy from GTA V lmao
Love you daron you are cute
Butaine chinchilla is my band
My cousin came back and shot himself last year i miss him to this day
in "Radio Video" he say's Brainwashing. he should know the meaning -_-
He says that in Violent Pornography, not in Radio/Video.
It's on violent pornography.
lol
“I’m not political” (proceeds to spout tiresome Democrat Party dogma for 3 minutes and bash anyone who doesn’t think like they do).
Joinha quem é Brasileiro e não gosta de Funkeiro.
If he think's Obama is doing a good job Daron is deluded, jesus christ..
He's saying Obama's a good bullshit artist.
Soad4verr He did a great job. Considering that the other party dragged him down every time.
