We discuss how the lack of touring likely was a direct contributor to Starkweather remaining one of the best (and most important/influential) bands you've *NEVER* heard of, the importance of evolving as a band and as musicians, and so much more. We talk about Rennie's love of hockey, his interest in noir films, and what he brings to the table lyrically, taken from his own experiences and his passion for weird fiction. This is a great conversation you won't want to miss. All songs used with permission - "Bustuari" taken from "This Sheltering Night" on Deathwish, Inc and "Hushabye : Goodnight" taken from "Croatoan" on Hypertension Records (vinyl) and Candlelight Records (CD).

We discuss Chuck's early days playing in ska bands, his versatility as a musician playing bass, guitar, drums, and vocals, the origins of his record label, the secret for the endurance for SPELLS, and a ton more.
