Dude oh my god watching her struggle to get to the first question was like watching a car crash in slow motion
Exactly! I’m at 1:47 and she still hasn’t come around to the freaking question, it’s frustrating. Not a great interviewer
a minute and a half in I audibily said, "wtf is this?"
Painful. Also, I’m skeptical of her familiarity with hardcore.
@@TypicalKid100 she used to sing for a hardcore band
@@joshlee779 which
It took forever to just ask the question lmaoo
LA Times interviewer. It took 1:52 to ask a single question. She used the word "like" 19 times.
It's beyond painful. How she has made a career of this is crazy. Tries too hard to come off as "cool and approachable" and just comes off as not very bright (which likely is not the case). She's definitely not doing herself any favors.
@@44mccoya spot on! It even gives me ‘omg im talking to my crush rn’ vibes at times. It was cringey 😬
I would like to point out the Brendan also says, "like" a lot when he speaks. It's definitely an American thing 🤣 let's cut homegirl a little slack.
@@hlf3vil245 To be fair, Brendan isn't supposed to be the professional here. His role is to answer questions posed of him which he does. Her job is to ask those questions in a professional manner, which arguably she fails at.
I love that Brendan gave an explanation for why he would miss so many words from songs in earlier shows in their career, check out some of their older shows and he would literally sing only like 50%of each song. The rest would be missed cause he would be letting a fan sing or he would be stage diving. I personally don't see a problem with that cause I think it's more important to entertain your audience than give a 100% accurate performance. But I never suspected it was because of nervousness. That's very interesting.
That’s hardcore punk baby
Parker Cannon (The Story So Far and No Pressure) does this a lot as well, I always suspected it was to give him a break in between yelling vocals, his sound seems difficult to reproduce live consistently, doesn't take away from the music though, the shows are still amazing!!
@@matthewxmeehan7189 They aren't a hardcore punk band. They're barely even hardcore anymore.
@@greghauser742 they absolutely are still a hardcore band, I’m sorry they don’t fit your personal definition
@@matthewxmeehan7189 No they aren't, and it's not my personal definition. They're like a hipster version of RATM now.
The interviewer is visibly smitten. Lol.
has this woman ever given an interview before?
I'm sure he said at least 5 words: "Hi, our band's called Turnstile." 😊
That question was 1:55 minutes long
So painful. He’s not Henry Kissinger, he just has sick moves.
Thanks
Say like one more time and I'm turning in my application
😂😂
Its awesome to see Brendan repping a fiddlehead shirt. Their guitar player recently was their tour photographer. Awesome guys. Awesome show. Met so many people that are in the HC scene that are staples. Best show of all time Charlotte NC baby
He’s also the guitarist of basement!
Shout out Alex Henry!!! Fiddlehead + Basement forever
Love Brendan, but he's not really the first one to have this type of stage presence in hardcore. Guy Piccioto from Fugazi and Denis Lyxzen from Refused had similar dancing styles.
Guy and everyone else in DC
@@carpeimodiem Very true. I'm glad Brendan is bringing that vibe back to the scene because all the tough guy stuff is kinda boring, but he definitely didn't invent it.
Check out Anaiah from Zulu live at chain reaction. One of the best frontman and some of the best stage presence in hardcore right now
also Cedric Bixler-Zavala from At the Drive-In.
to be fair, I don’t think she ever said he was the first. it’s just different from the standard modern hardcore frontman
I feel brendan has this jive like Mj, prince, little Richard type vibe when he performs. It feels like he’s saying thank you to those type of lead musicians who dance with that funk. I
Dunno if it’s like “I’m doing this for that” or if that’s how he naturally moves when he performs if it’s on purpose or not- but it’s definitely a grooving jive dance when he does it. Super smooth
This question is taking forever....
Jesus, a quarter of this video was the interviewer asking the question lmao
HOW did this woman get a job as an interviewer. Look at her opening question. She goes off in like 29 different directions, says “like” 15 times in two sentences and never gets to any point or really asks him anything.
I hope youre feeling better now
BOOM BOOM BOOM
How long does it take to ask what influenced his movement on stage. Jeeesus
Hahhahaha. True!!!
Should be called "The envelope, with some shrooms inside: artists partake and then conversate."
Her performance Its like a combination of Brandon Boyd , Mick Jagger & The classic hardcore singer. And i love it. ❤️
*his?
@@AndrewDRoyappa á
I thought she was interviewing herself at first 😅
My 3 year old lovesTurnstile and tries to be like Brendan lol he’s in the mirror, flashlight for a mic in his hands just trashing around haha
Love Brendan so much. He's such a sweetheart... and just so happens to sing in a hardcore band. I mean, come on. Thats crazy cool.
She was flustered.
Ah yes, his singing. The Adele of post-punk I've always said.
They aren't post-punk
Brendan ♡
What’s your question, lady???
Why tf did she talk for 2 mins and not even ask a question
Social media could be a such a beautiful thing. But then you have people, that just have to spread hate. It is like,when they don't do it they will suffering from a terrible death.
Just because someone doing a interview differently and likes to dive deeper in a question, does not mean that it is bad at all. He got the question and gave her an answer. But whatever...
Keep shining you beautiful assholes ♥️
Are you her friend or something? Cause that’s the only reason why someone would defend her inferior interviewing skills. This is supposed to be LA Times, everyone expected better than this
What a terrible interviewer 😢
Were can i see the full interview?
Let’s send this interviewer to a Gulch show and see how she tries to describe dem movements
Lmfao
Articulate, thoughtful, and interesting answer to an awful question (if you can even call it that). Atrocious interview for someone that can have so much to say. LA Times wanted to release this?
cool interview, hate the people that comment the girl tho, have u thought she may loose her job etc?
best "metal performance" nominee...ok sure whatever you want
At least they’re getting recognized 🤷♂️
Great band to watch live !! The energy is on another level 💯
Glad they are earning monrey, but all their new fans are annoying.
Just heard Freaks by Surf Curse!AWRE#
Hipsters
Did we forget about Joy Division? I love Brendans style but he's not a pioneer.
Ugh. The product of the democratization of media.
He's Ian Curtis of Joy Division, just reincarnated.
Without the agonized seizure part, but yeah.
Nah not really. It's more every frontman in DC from the mid 80's. He does it great tho. They actually draw a lot of their sound from that era.
@@carpeimodiem I hear much more NYHC than DC.
@@carpeimodiem Yea! I mean they're great live , but he's pretty much doing what Guy Picciotto does.
Well…then Ian decided to flip the coin in this lifetime 😉
Isn't this the guy who makes the music for Death Battle?
what
Are you high?
