Seems like a clear winner to me, hahaha.

I've been getting into being educated since junior kindergarten and history was what really piqued my interest like little else has until I've discovered math as a young adult.

they actually were involved tho so big brained move from isaac

RIP artist. Thank you for your gifts

Me too!

Long live SWANS as well!

don't you mean Sir Isaac Brock?😂

Serious question. Do you think if I emailed Isaac would he email me back? I wouldn't say anything stupid or put him on a pedestal or anything. I'd love to talk to him, even if it was just one response from him

@houseatreides6683 Honestly... I don't know. I think it would depend on two things: 1.) The mood he's in. He's one of my idols, both as a musician and a human being, but I've heard he's a precarious fella. And, 2.) The nature and content(s) of the email. I'm sure he'd be more than happy to answer anyone who reaches out, so long as they do so with the respect due any other person (I'm also pretty sure he wouldn't dig the gushing fanboy nonsense). But I also think you'd have to engage his curiosity and/or interests. He's been in a successful band for 29 years, 26 of them as major recording artists; he's done literally thousands of interviews. That being said, I'd also keep the questions to a minimum, and not the kind of questions he's answered countless times in those interviews. He's always come off as contemplative and very appreciative of his fans. So maybe include what his music means to you, why it's so important, or how it's affected your life. I suppose an anecdote about an experience you had seeing him perform might also be of interest to him. All in all, if you want to email him, you should. Just make the focus of the email express how his music and poetry has touched you, let him know how much it means to you. Be sincere and succinct, but say what you feel you need to express. And don't take it personally if he doesn't respond. He has a life of his own aside from music, and your email will be one of (likely) hundreds, if not thousands, he'll receive that week alone. Whatever you decide to do, do so in earnest and with respect.

100+ Radio interviews (like this one) are on Nard's official website. Worth searching for those rarities going back to 1989.

You know how nardwuar be, also that’s very lovely thank you for sharing

that's so sweet :)

Cool! When are you getting divorced?

He's been doing interviews since he was in high school back in 1987 for local cable access TV, University radio, Music networks & KZfaq.

@@SaintMartins True, I’m just extremely impressed by his track record of recognizing and seeking out interviews with legendary bands when they were nobodies, or one among many in a similar genre.

I mean, there were zines and an indie subculture that would all coalesce around certain bands, radio shows, and places, and he was very much plugged-in to all of that. Even if you didn't like certain types of music, you'd still at least be aware of these bands because you'd see their name around in zines or lists of shows.

@@mymusicaljesussince when is a magazine called a zine? Serious question. I’ve never heard it before a couple of months ago

@@concorde__ the term "ZINES" is nothing like your regular magazines seen in grocery stores or book stores. It specifically refers to the various DIY/self-made/photo copied booklets that were published in the punk/indie music scene. you would typically find them at smaller indie/punk record stores, music venues, vintage clothe stores, and small coffee shops. They were usually distributed locally at those places and would be free, although sometimes they could charge a couple of bucks. Topics would vary but they usually revolved around the local music scene, upcoming shows, interviews, art, activism, veganism, poetry, interesting stories from gutter punks riding the rails across the country, whatever they wanted, etc. These were done out of love and didn't have ads or any real revenue coming in. Some would release monthly, a lot of them were infrequent or only lasted a few releases at most. They were almost exclusively presented in black and white because they were mass produced using a photo copier at a Kinkos (now FedEx), staples, or library. Because the Xerox machines weren't that great back then, they wouldn't look too incredibly clear, but that did add character to the whole DIY vibe. Most of them were hand written or were typed up on an old typewriter, using a computer was seen as too corporate because these zines were basically the antithesis of regular magazines, so the format of the finished product was created by having a lot of things that were cut out and then pasted on paper before they were placed in the photo copier. Do a Google image search for, "Punk Zines" and you'll get a better idea. hope this helps!

Cobain's interview was January 4, 1994 & he died April 5, 1994 so about 3 month before his death. Also it WAS Kurt's last "TV" interview as it originally aired on a local show in Vancouver, Canada called Soundproof. Kurt did at least 1 "magazine" interview in Europe before his death.

Me too!

Yeah he has a very unique way of speaking, I love it haha

Lol who cares what jello Biafra likes?

It's all an act. Jello & Nardwuar are good friends. They've done 10 or 11 interviews over the years & acted in 2 indie films together.

I've had like two opportunities to see them but those new songs just don't do it for me lol

@@vekerz I got lucky and their setlist was basically a greatest hits compilation lol

@@vekerz you should next chance you get, saw them twice since golden casket and well over half the setlist was pre- STO both times.

@@vekerz I just seen them live this week for the first time they're touring for Lonesome's 25th anniversary and the setlist was literally Lonesome front to back. Absolutely an all time favorite album of mine I wouldn't go out of my way to see them play basically anything post-Moon and Antarctica but I wasn't gonna miss this tour for the world.

It's his job to keep an interview going, and he has limited time. It's what makes his interviews so good.

Jesus, I hit that section of the interview just as I was reading your comment. Tough listen.

@@timevison2928Same
