ZPP. 82 - Edward Barakauskas of TEEN MORTGAGE & TIRED ALL THE TIME
This week on the Zen Perry Project we welcome Edward Barakauskas, drummer of the Washington D.C. based bands TEEN MORTGAGE & TIRED ALL THE TIME. Besides talking the Teen Mortgage tour kicking off with a sold-out show at Union Pool in Brooklyn this Friday, Ed talks everything from how they squeezed 17 tracks onto the recently released self-titled vinyl to dropping pro-tips for taking cozy sh*ts on the road.

ZPP. 80 - Sally Gates of TITAN TO TACHYONS
This week on the Zen Perry Project we welcome Sally Gates, the talented composer and guitarist of the experimental jazz-metal group TITAN TO TACHYONS. In addition to pondering how the vast cosmos are gleams of insight into the inspiration she finds in the unknowable, Sally discusses the approach she takes here on the ground to composing complex instrumental songs that flow as a story.

ZPP. 79 - James Durbin of DURBIN
This week on the Zen Perry Project we enjoyed a chat with heavy metal vocalist James Durbin.

ZPP. 78 - Tristan Shone of AUTHOR & PUNISHER
This week on the Zen Perry Project we had the pleasure of sitting down with Tristan Shone, the tinkerer mastermind of Author & Punisher. Don’t let his San Diego surfer vibes mislead you, Author & Punisher is a juggernaut of the heavy industrial music scene, churning pounding beats and distorted vocals from an arsenal of personally-crafted metal MIDI monstrosities called Drone Machines. Appearing like relics salvaged from a futuristic cyberpunk dystopia, Tristan’s fusion of mechanical engineering experience and now 20 years of commitment culminate in his fantastic creation of cathartically heavy sonic landscapes.
Kicking off a Midwest & East Coast Tour later this week do NOT miss Author & Punisher live in a city near you; we cannot wait to catch him at Saint Vitus Bar here in NYC on March 3rd.

ZPP. 77 - Tom Polzine, Zach Wheeler, & Sebastian Baltes of HOWLING GIANT
This week on the Zen Perry Project, we’re joined by Tom, Zach, and Sebastian of the Nashville based stoner metal band HOWLING GIANT. From the rare liquid-filled vinyl release of Glass Future to being mindful of 5G towers on next month’s tour with Wino and the Obsessed, the band chats about everything from the weirdest place they’ve found themselves sleeping on the road to creating their own retro video game.
