Crustgirls took some time out of his day
of watching professional wrestling to chat with Kitsch Magik about a few
Things. Without Crustgirls there would be no MOYO and then no Kitsch Magik so I
really hold this project up to the highest!!
Check out his bandcamp and facebook!
Kitsch Magik: first what made you want to start wanting to make
noise music and how was crustgirls born.
Crustgirls: Wrestling shows rule
Crustgirls: I used to
listen to some noise in high school but didn't really get into it that much
until later. I've always liked the freedom that noise can have, no rights or
wrongs just whatever you feel. I started crustgirls after being frustrated that
my current hardcore band wasn't doing anything and I wanted to create
something, anything! It was also a low key joke at the time too because I'd see
all these stuck up noise people that thought they were the best things ever and
I made my debut demo as crustgirls in a single day from modified field
recordings at my job and then just yelled over it and then got some lathe
records of it pressed haha. I grew Into really enjoying what I was doing
Crustgirls though it quickly became far more serious
Kitsch Magik: That's
so funny on the concept of poking fun at noise bros. Something that I feel I do
also. Do you feel that there is a lot of stuck up noise guys out there that
take themselves to seriously? We should do this because we love it right? I
feel like it shows if you are that egotistical!!
Crustgirls: of course, I'm sure you've seen it as well.
Those guys that are just so "man I'm so much better at what I do than
you" or "geez that guys set sucked" etc They worship merzbow or
have jammed full of hell once, but for the most part I've met and played with
so many nice people. I feel like with any music style you have to love doing it
instead of looking cool to others, who cares if your any good at it just do
what you love.
Kitsch Magik: I love that about you and I totally agree that
who cares as long as your having fun!! We are in this really weird culture that
most people don't understand. But how is noise down in Florida? What are some
of the venues you love? How does the noise community treat each other in your
state?
Crustgirls: Florida has some cool noise, but I'm honestly
not connected very well with many people here, I don'y play live often and I'm
not normally invited to play the bigger noise shows. I feel I have way more
friends and fans far above Florida it seems when it comes to my stuff. My
favorite venue to play is Uncle Lou's in Orlando, bless Lou for letting all the
random kinds of bands and projects play there. The times I do play shows though
I've noticed most people in FL noise are pretty chill and fun to be around.
Shout out to Hell Garbage aka Dhouser for booking me for events the most out
here xoxo
Kitsch Magik: It's great that we have a small community that
supports each other even thought all of us can be so far away. I can't stand
when people say noise artist only make music for other noise artist. That's kind
of a no brainer of course we think of that!!! Because most likely they are the
ones that are also buying our tapes, t-shirts, and cds!!! Do you have any pros
and cons for our weird community and culture? Have any ideas on making it
better? Or worse!!! Lok
Crustgirls: Most def honestly most most noise is for noise
haha, but that's not saying anyone can't get into it though! My buddy Robbie of
Human Fluid Rot is a shinning example of this. He is a fucking master of noise
and I have see people just watch his sets in awe and then comment how they
don't even enjoy noise but thought that was an amazing set. That to me is a big
Pro in noise, because if you can put on a show and show people something
different they might over look their first opinions of it check out other noise
acts. The biggest Con of noise are shitty people. There's always those few bad
seeds in the community that promote noise and other extreme or weird
experimental stuff that a lot of us are tied too that are into white power
(which fuck that) or they just are incredibly smug entitled people that think
everyone Else's offerings are trash and they just make this image that all of
us are just dicks. Less comps from Adult Swim, more comps from Adult Swim haha.
Encourage each other I suppose. Fellow noise musicians people will send me
stuff sometimes to check out and I love to just tell them to keep at it and
make more stuff.
Kitsch Magik: If noise was wrestling who would enter the
ring to crustgirls? And what song? Also if noise artist were wrestlers who would
be the hardcore champ?
Crustgirls: most likely that wild motherfucker jun kasai
would come out to crustgirls, the song "empty graves open homes" from
my dead love EP. sean beard of waves crashing piano chords would hands down be
the hardcore champion
Kitsch Magik: where do you think noise will go in the
future? do you think there will be the same people involved as old heads and
there will be fresh new faces? what do you think it will sound like?
Crustgirls: it's getting more and more accessible it seems
these days. Hopefully it will be more accepted in a sense that maybe I can
freakin play a show in my own home town haha. The people that love noise will
always be around I think but there will most def be new faces around with it
popping up more I feel like kids will find it and be like oh man this is fun to
make and who knows. probably sound like crap ha too many laptops but who cares
Ill hopefully still be kicking around making garbage no one cares about
Kitsch Magik: HAHAHAHA! ok who are some of the people that
you would love to work with that you haven't already kinda like secret noise
artist crush thing. its it almost valentines day or something!!!
Crustgirls: I'd love to have a crustgirls split with waves
crashing piano chords(we've had one with my other project Parasyte* and he was
on my crustgirls lp), contraktor, methlab explosion. I would love do more stuff
with non noise people too honestly I really want to do stuff with burnt hair,
virgin flower and dream of doing something with grimes
Kitsch Magik: last words!
Crustgirls: steal from Walmart
Kitsch Magik: hahahaha ok thanks again man it was a pleasure
!!
Crustgirls: xoxo
