184. PETE KEMBER (A.K.A. SONIC BOOM) RATES SPACEMEN 3 (PART TWO)
With Dave’s Mom undergoing home hospice and then passing away during the taping of this series, this 6 1/2 hour interview literalizes the ego-death slant of this classic psych band's lyrics. Whether or not you’re on drugs, Spacemen 3 has the absolute best music to keep you grounded during life’s rollercoaster freakouts. Here’s just a few of the many things Pete and I discuss in this podcast: The secret behind Jason Pierce’s early lyric-writing technique (a Director’s Cut exclusive); The friend of theirs about whom the song “O.D. Catastrophe” was written; Plus, incendiary discussions about their demo tapes and first two studio albums, Sound Of Confusion and The Perfect Prescription!
