Need to get loathe on the pod 😍

This is objectively the best podcast ever. Sounds like sweet sweet caramel in my ears. Looks fit, there’s bright things to look at, dark things, metal things, pink things. I don’t skip the ad reads because you make some good haha’s, and for some reason Craig has become the best music podcast host out there. More please and thank you

I like it when he insults my shit walls that don't have metal posters on them... he's right

Props to Simon for that cut at 24:40, probably one of the funniest bits in this podcast and i cried laughing, thank you for that

I recently completed my life long goal that took me 7 years and now have a great job/etc and I still feel empty. Sometimes I feel like just quitting. I dont know why I feel this way but Holding Absence is the one band that keeps me going when I listen to them. Thanks for sharing this interview.

@chriswiens9706 some people enjoy the chase more than conquering something. Nothing wrong with that. Find your next life long goal and keep on grinding.

Start of the podcast I was one of the guys about the shirt and Craig and I squashed the beef in his twitch chat too! Was a funny interaction where we both donated the same amount to the charity but had beef and now it's chill! Lucas is lovely Ash is lovely and it was lovely to have a catch up with Lucas this weekend, lovely times all round!

100% about ash being a frontman live. Dude is BY FAR the best drummer I’ve seen live. Just off performance and energy. So good

That American Football song with Hayley Williams, Uncomfortably Numb, is such a gem. One of my all time favourite songs.

The vibes of this episode were ✨ immaculate ✨! Love how warm and genuine Lucas and Ash are and they were super fun to listen to. Found Holding Absence through the acoustic collab they did with Dayseeker and have been hooked since!! Also, manifesting a new Stray Southeast Asia tour for the new album! Hoping the band makes their way to Malaysia 🥹🥹🥹

Loving it so far (watch the pod semi-regularly and big HA fan so win-win) Hope Ash is doing okay just now he's taking a break from the latest tour. Monster of a drummer!

people in the crowds in germany might as well faint because they can't afford to buy water for 5€ and venues refuse to give out tap water for free

dream festy and truth or lie are both good bits

Funny they mentioned the drums on TGMOML. I always loved how simple the drums were on that album and how they serviced the songs perfectly. Created such an open space and made the album so much more beautiful. I LOVE that album. Top 15 of all time for me.

It's interesting to see European people instantly knowing where someone is from based solely from their accent. Same in the US but I just hadn't seen it elsewhere 😂

I don't listen to podcasts at all but Craig you are doing amazing. Love your voice, shits and giggles. Also love the stories that come out of the interviewed people. Very well done. I even got more respect for stray and the other bands that join in.

Hell yeah!!! TGMOML is one of my favorite albums of all time. And no they aren't metalcore lmao. Post hardcore.

@northernxdarkness Ай бұрын

I saw Green Day play Dookie & American Idiot in full and they were insanely good. Billie just sounds exactly the same like he sounds on record, Mike & Tre have the same energy i saw them have 20 years ago (in videos). One of the best and most special concerts of my live. BUT Ash replacing Tre would be soooo cool! And honestly he would do it insanely good

You missed the Funeral For A Friend question! :( Lucas has been singing for them, it came out of nowhere for some reason.

So I was supposed to go to that one show they cancelled. I was really bummed cause I've been trying to see them for a few years now and always seem to miss them. But I understood and didn't leave any asshole comments anywhere.

Can’t believe I heard love for Jesus of Suburbia (in specific that and Saint Jimmy are Fuckin amazing) AND Koi No Yokan (which was tie for my favorite with Around The Fur until Ohms dropped, so now it’s a 3 way 🤔 fitting for Deftones 💀)👏 🥳 Good on you man! These guys are really cool and now I’ll check out their music! Thank you for putting them on Craig!

At their show in Cardiff during the Dayseeker acoustic song some idiots started a row boat bit. God, so annoying. Really felt for Rory and Lucas when that went down.

people are fainting more at shows, they're also faking it more. It's crazy how varied a show can be. People are also buying into camping culture and camping out for shows and not taking care of themselves properly. I'm seeing it as a venue manager, and it's so weird.

It’s quite ironic I’m 11 days late as I’m on your Patreon, BUT CRAIG: @32:54 IF HANS ZIMMER, DARK KNIGHT QUINTUPLET INSPIRED DRUMS ARE ON THE NEW STRAY ALBUM I’LL F***IN FREAK 😝 Particularly after what you previewed us for us today (06/28/24, “update vlog: NEW company. NEW clothing. NEW Stray),” and you saying that this new album is what you want to be remembered for?? Craig do you know how ravenous I am right now?

@northernxdarkness Ай бұрын

I prefer the dream festival thing, thats cooler to me, because dreaming of things make me wanna do things and for me, thinking about a festival that could be just the way i want, is just something fun and make me wanna do things with those ideas, even tho 90% of that might never happen.
