Blynd Submyshynz Episode 79: Karl Larson from KOOK

Two years in the making...Jeff finally talked Karl from KOOK into recording...in person (a first). Jeff has been hesitant about self-promotion from the beginning...but here we are...he's in a band with Karl and they make music together and have thoughts about it. We talked about the writing process for the next KOOK record, dipping back into roots rock but making it weird, loving Michael Shenker and Alex Lifeson, recording with Jack Endino...his long-time relationship with Mitch French from Dear Deceased, Operator Generator, Burn Thee Insects, and Lazer Beam. We reminisced about the stoner scene in San Jose, and also other stuff. This one speaks for itself. If you've been listening since the beginning you'll hear some familiar stuff from the source. Operator Generator. Sleep. Fireface. High on Fire. Stoner Steve. We went to all of those places.
