About this listen
On this episode of What Are You Jamming?, I sit down with Bryan Funck of Thou to talk New Orleans, punk ethics, and why he's never really thought of Thou as a "local band" to begin with. We dig into his approach to songwriting, his complicated feelings about performing live, the quiet anarchy baked into the band's decisions, and what it's like running his record store, Sisters in Christ.
The episode opens with "Emotional Terrorist" from their new album Umbilical subtly running under the intro, setting the tone in the most Thou way possible. And when it's all said and done, the outro rides out on "The Promise", also from Umbilical, as we wrap up the conversation.
Bryan's thoughtful, dry, and unexpectedly funny, and the talk ends up being equal parts music philosophy, community, burnout, belonging, and the very punk idea of one day just walking off the grid.
Stick around to the end when I ask him the only question that truly matters on this show: What are you jamming?
