Episode #86 - Are You Out There - Part 1

In this week's episode, we begin studying "Are You Out There," one of the featured tracks on the forthcoming Night of the Demon compilation album. The band describes how and why this song came to be the third single in their 2020 7" vinyl release series. You will hear the original press release for the single, and learn Night Demon's trepidation about "Are You Out There" as a laidback departure from their signature sound. Then the boys go into great detail about the origins and evolutions of the song, beginning with a 2015 demo recorded on a cellphone in Geneva, Switzerland in 2015, and morphing over the course of three subsequent demos reaching early 2019.  The guys explain what changed and why over the course of these demos, and you'll hear the evolution through those incremental recordings.  We leave off with Night Demon heading to Chicago to record the song under the tutelage of legendary producer Steve Albini.
