This Was The Scene Podcast Mike Doyle

The Locust was an American hardcore punk band from San Diego, known for their mix of grindcore speed and aggression, and new wave experimentation complexity. Vocalist/bassist Justin Pearson said, "I wanted to change the way people perceive music, or maybe just destroy it in general." The Locust's music is complex, dynamic and fast-paced, often featuring abrupt and inconsistent time-signature changes. These erratic elements are, according to vocalist/guitarist Bobby Bray, "a reflection of perhaps how our brains have to function in order to be able to do anything in the Western societies we live in."
I got Justin on the Skype and this is what we chat about:
How the uniforms came about Getting kicked out of the house at 16 What it was like recording Touring with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs Getting shit for signing to Epitaph The Extreme Elvis interview Being on the Jerry Springer Show Head Wound City And a ton more Check out his podcast Cult and Culture which is his podcast along with producer and musician Luke Henshaw. The show explores the DIY-driven, subversive world of art and culture, featuring a diverse array of guests from various subcultures. The podcast, recorded at PengOne Studios in San Diego, offers frank, informal, and well-informed conversations with guests ranging from Grammy-winning musicians, to actors like John Waters, and to Black Panther Party members. The aim is to blur traditional guest-host lines and foster casual openness. "Cult and Culture" is available wherever you podcast.
Check out Justin’s other projects including Deaf Club and the Mike Patton fronted Dead Cross.

He’s still performing to this day and you’ll hear all about that in this interview.
