DBWS - 2-33 - PYLON REENACTMENT SOCIETY

We’re reaching back into the vault for another classic episode of Don’t Bother Wearing Seatbelts — and this one is an absolute blast.

We’re joined by the entire Pylon Reenactment Society for a conversation about carrying forward the legacy of Pylon, one of the most incredible, influential, and downright singular bands to ever emerge from the legendary Athens, Georgia music scene.

We talk about what it means to honor that music while creating something that stands on its own, the formation and evolution of Pylon Reenactment Society, their extensive touring, the records they’ve released, and what it’s been like bringing these songs to audiences around the world. https://patreon.com/dontbotherwearingseatbelts?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_fan&utm_content=copyLink

DBWS - 2-30 Fear Of Fear with Ben Crum of Great Lakes
On this episode, we sit down with Ben Crum of Great Lakes to talk about the band’s beautiful and deeply personal new record, Fear of the Fear.
A semi-concept album inspired by the loss of a close friend, Fear of the Fear explores grief, memory, friendship, and all the complicated emotions that come with losing someone important. Interestingly, the album was actually recorded before Great Lakes’ last record Don't Swim To Close, making its long-awaited arrival feel even more special.
This episode has some really amazing E6 stories including some fun ones about the great Belle and Sebastian and Alex Chilton of Big Star.
