Drunk Dial #3 - ESCARE
Post-recording interview with Papi Fimbres of ESCARE
[DD] Drunk Dial prohibits writing or rehearsing the cover before going into the studio, but did you prepare for the day of recording in any other way?
[PF] We only attempted the cover song once before going into the studio. the only actual preparation we had was to open that third eye & capture a killer performance.
[DD] Did you have any specific fears going into the studio? What ended up being the most difficult part?
[PF] Zero fears. in fact, it was going so well, we kept on recording & made up 12 songs on the spot!
[DD] Why did you choose to cover 'Mushroom' by CAN
[PF] Charlie & I have always been inspired by kraut-y music, ie, Faust, NEU!, Kraftwerk... so CAN was just another amazing band that we felt a connection to.
[DD] Do you prefer playing music sober or buzzed?
[PF] I much prefer playing music BUZZZED & high as fuck
[DD] What is the best cover song of all time?
[PF] The Happy Birthday song.
[DD] It's closing time at a bar full of your friends, there's only time to play one more song on the jukebox. What do you play?
[PF] Al Green’s Love & Happiness.
