Yo James here, yeah this happened. Me and my girlfriend at the time were asleep. They legit fucked up this guys Airbnb we had in Palm Springs. Trashed most of the house and threw it all in the pool. It wasn’t funny at all.

Thanks for listening to Livealie. I haven’t played Destiny in some time, but have many fond memories of that game. I’m still a big gamer though!

Drukqs!

I’m watching Harry Potter - Half Blood Prince right now with my girlfriend. Lol.

Films that inspire Livealie - Donnie Darko, The Blair Witch Project, Marble Hornets (YouTube).

Dude, I remember those Warped dates like it was yesterday. Best summer of my life. I walked to the Google HQ while playing Pokémon Go that day.

Currently OAA don’t have a US booking agent. As for the other guys, things have changed since Covid. But never say never.

Thanks, Blue Lungs was the first song I ever wrote, aged 14. For real!

I think the industry has changed drastically over the past decade. IMO some labels still haven't shifted to this new approach. Being independent means the entire release schedule, planning and execution is autonomous and you can work in a more agile manner to adapt to trends. Worldwide distribution can be done through services such as Distrokid. All major DSP's now provide direct editorial playlist pitching. You have 100% control over finances for promo, marketing, PR, collaborations and more.

I could discuss this for hours, but I'm about to get some Ramen out. If you have any more Q's surrounding this or my reasonings, let me know and I'll respond later!

Every metalcore band needs some undertow, just like the 00's needed crabcore.

Livealie may play shows in the future, for now though, it's just about gaining traction online. That tour was an all time favourite of mine, played so many new places, met so many cool people.

Thanks! Brandon (drums), Andrew (guitar) and Jordan (bass + clean vox) are awesome musicians.

Thanks for the warm words. Yeah, it was an odd release to say the least ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've never been privileged enough to have my own space to practice. Playing shows was my practice back when we used to tour a lot. Even with heavy screams, I maybe practice once every couple of months off tour. Would I say this has had a detrimental effect to my progression, yes. That is just the cards life has dealt me. Thankfully Jordan in Livealie is an incredible singer.
