Co-written by Tyler Burkett and Max Bryan
On Friday Mopsy boot-scooted on down to the KJHK station to answer a few questions about musical influences, whatevercore, and the meaning of life. Check out the highlights down below and remember to keep it locked!
Tyler: What kind of music do you make and who do you make it for?
Judge: We make loud angry rock music for people somewhere in between quirky and cool, something like that. If we had to give it a genre, we’d give it whatevercore.
Tyler: Like a broad stroke of whatever…core.
Huck: It’s for the kids.
Scout: What Judge said.
T: So how did y’all get formed? What drew you together?
Huck: We were introduced by our guitar player, Clark Russell, he knew us all.
Judge: We all have been in bands before and love making music and just started making music together.
Tyler: What is a weird inspiration for your music that’s not a music thing. What are you drawing from when you wanna make music? What are weird quirky things that you use in the back of your head?
Judge: Just some of the aesthetics of the alternative scene, but also not feeling like you’re fitting in growing up. Wearing it like a badge on your chest, a pride of honor.
Huck: I just drum.
Tyler; I feel like most drummers have that mindset, do you feel like you have other things going on?
Huck: Well sometimes I feel like I wanna play drums in the desert. I wanna make a film of that one day.
Scout: I just play bass.
Tyler: What’s the meaning of life?
Judge: To find meaning in life. Find your own purpose. Do something with it.
Huck: That’s my answer.
Scout: I don’t think about that ever.
