Emzy Enzy 3QS063

Caleb Straus of Emzy Enzy  First Angel Media joins the show to take his shot at 3 Questions (or so) and a song! Being from Austin Texas, how did you come to find First Angel Media? I see that you release music as both Emzy Enzy (as Leej, Legion) and also as Caleb Straus, how to you determine what song gets released as whom? If an apocalyptic event happened and only one of your songs survives to help re-populate the Earth, which song would it be and why? If Emzy Enzy could open for any band in the history of time, who would you open for, at what location, and why that band? What made you choose that heavy direction with your music? What made you stick with it over the years instead of picking a different direction? asked by Doug Carnahan on episode 62 About Emzy Enzy Genre: Experimental Metal Location: Austin, TX, USA Emzy Enzy is an experimental industrial metal band currently based in Austin TX, led by vocalist Caleb Straus (LEEJUN), and featuring Christopher Burch (KNUMERIC) on guitar and synth, and William Douglas (SPLATTERBRAIN) on bass. The band also incorporates elements of lounge, trip hop, trap metal, and black and death metal into their expansive and experimental sound. About the Song, Narcissistic Cyborg Narcissistic Cyborg is track one of the upcoming album, “KREM”, based on a fictional planet of the band’s making, “KREM” marks a departure from Emzy Enzy’s early experimental/industrial sound (which are still present but in the background), to make way for a far more present death metal and hardcore influence. Narcissistic Cyborg is track one on KREM, and the recent single “My Kindness” feat. Seethe is Track 2. We are drip releasing two albums simultaneously, “KREM” and “Beelzebourbon” which is a huge detour. Will discuss more details on the show. 🙂 Every month, you’ll get a new song from each album.

Doug Carnahan 3QS062

Doug Carnahan returns to 3 Questions and a Song. This time Doug is here to talk about his solo EP, The Lighter Side of Dark. Let’s start out with the most important thing first, what can you tell us about your upcoming Ep Release show? What is your favorite thing about doing solo shows? With something that sounds so very well put together as After the Fall, what made you want to do a solo project? asked by MadClock on Episode 61. About Doug Carnahan Doug Carnahan is an American vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He’s no stranger to the stage, having been performing for over a decade, both all over his native Pennsylvania and across the U.S. Doug has been the front man for quite a few hard rock bands over the years, starting with his first band, Devils Under the Influence, which he formed back in 2008. From his next band, A Guilty Revelation, to joining his current, award-winning band, After the Fall, Doug has continued his passion for writing, recording, and performing music. Now, Doug is stretching his musical legs with his solo acoustic project, releasing his first ever solo acoustic record, The Lighter Side of Dark. Started back in 2017, as a way to help gain exposure (and make a little extra golfing money), Doug’s solo acoustic act consisted of him playing his favorite covers to local bars. Over the years, the concept of just a guy, his guitar, and the music grew on Doug, and he began to extend his acoustic repertoire with original material and a more extensive collection of cover songs. As it continued to expand and grow, and with his desire to explore new musical horizons, a solo acoustic record was the next logical step. Drawing on a few older songs from his years of songwriting as a starting point for the record, Doug also wanted to expand beyond his native rock music. With the inclusion of a couple brand new songs, this record showcases Doug’s songwriting sensibilities and puts on display the many different styles and genres that he himself is a fan of. The Lighter Side of Dark is just the first step in what Doug hopes will be a new turn in his musical journey. Doug currently resides near his hometown, outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, but would rather be living near a beach somewhere. When he’s not writing or performing, he enjoys spending time with his wife and six children, golfing, traveling, and dreaming about living near the beach. About the song, Can’t Believe “Can’t Believe” is the first single from Doug Carnahan’s upcoming solo acoustic debut. Doug, the vocalist for the popular Pittsburgh hard rock outfit, After the Fall, stays in the vein of rock with “Can’t Believe”, yet allows the haunting, bittersweet song to take on a life all it’s own by stripping down the usual distortion and studio production, leaving only the bare minimum, making for a listening experience that will truly resonate with listeners of all genres and walks of life.
