  You used to me, only now I can never find you in tell the
• 0:28
  ells of things you never Hey, this is Dale from Revoid. You are
• 0:35
  listening to hopefully our new single blood Pedals that's just come out recently. Thanks
• 0:39
  for joining us today, Bray, thanks for having me pleasure say as you
• 0:44
  say. Avoid only last week released your latest single, Blood Pedals, So
• 0:48
  I know it hasn't been that long, bro, but how's the early response
• 0:50
  made? Honestly, it's been really good. It's been really positive considering it's
• 0:54
  so like we've always been a pretty emotional, pretty serious sort of band,
• 0:58
  but this is a little bit further out of a wheelhouse the normal, and
• 1:00
  everyone just loving it, thank God. Like like you say, it's a
• 1:07
  lot mellower and fans it used to from you guys. So tell us a
• 1:10
  bit about this song musically, what you're going for and why you decided to
• 1:14
  release something like this. Yeah, definitely. Well, we've always been about
• 1:19
  the versatility and stuff and like we like everything. So we've all come from
• 1:23
  from background, different taste and we sort of want to, I guess,
• 1:26
  build that into what we write. So this is just I guess something that
• 1:30
  we all relate to, something that we've all gone through once upon a time,
• 1:33
  whether it be you know, a loss of a friend, you know,
• 1:36
  partner, family, anything like that. So I guess we just wanted
• 1:40
  to get something that really conveyed our feelings and to put everyone else in a
• 1:44
  bit of a feely mood. And yeah, see see how it goes.
• 1:46
  I guess. This song also featured Julian Latouche from Inertias guests vocalists. How
• 1:53
  did that collaboration come about? Well, we we notoriously only go with one
• 1:57
  producer. That's Mark Williamson from Inertia. Also, he picked us up when
• 2:02
  we did Cut Me Down way back in twenty nineteen for the twenty twenty release,
• 2:07
  so we've just been on their on their payroll ever since basically. But
• 2:12
  Julian pops in every now and again, and we truthfully we always leave a
• 2:16
  little bit room for his features because he's such a fantastic vocalist and he liked
• 2:21
  this song enough. Yeah, he just he loved it enough and he believed
• 2:25
  it enough that he wanted to lay something down on it. And when we
• 2:29
  heard it, we're like, yeah, this is the this is it.
• 2:31
  Yeah. The press release mentions the delicately constructed arrangement that allows the dual vocals
• 2:39
  to shine. Now you elaborate or that means, I'm sure there's a lot
• 2:42
  of people out there that don't really understand how or what that arrangement could be
• 2:46
  or how you could construct it. Yeah, no, definitely. So I
• 2:51
  guess when looking at especially taking on a feature, you're always going to work
• 2:53
  out how to compliment not only the vocalist voice, but also how to position
• 2:59
  them in the side vocally, because sometimes when you get a feature, you
• 3:02
  can either write the song, you can write the part, you can write
• 3:06
  the lyrics for them, or you can do none of the above. So
• 3:09
  yeah, just creating an arrange on that suits everyone's best characteristics, and I
• 3:14
  think, like considering Julian's massive range and his such strong vocal ability, Yeah,
• 3:20
  we wanted to get him on a part that really let him shine a
• 3:23
  little bit, more so between when he pops it in and the bridge and
• 3:27
  then to how he compliments the utro of the song. We just felt like
• 3:30
  it's short, but it's so so sweet for us, and yeah, that's
• 3:34
  obviously my favorite part of the song. Yeah. Blood Pedals follows the track
• 3:39
  Burn with Me, which released back in June Mate. So are they stand
• 3:43
  alone singles? Were part of a bigger album repeopictures, They are stand alone
• 3:46
  singles, so we wanted to keep the hype up. We were were brand
• 3:51
  new the sort of edge year, so we're getting the groundwork for that.
• 3:55
  At least two were meant stand individually recorded together, so there's a little bit
• 4:02
  of a duelity. We wanted to hit it heavy and we wanted to hit
• 4:04
  it soft, just for a bit of a bit of a vibe change and
• 4:09
  see how we go. But yeah, it is they are just standalone singles
• 4:11
  at this stage, alright, So it sounds to me like they're a bit
• 4:15
  of a bridge between the last album Sleeples Still then and then the next EP
• 4:18
  So how is how is that going to reflect the way you're right for the
• 4:23
  next one? Is that a lot like sort of setting things up for a
• 4:25
  slight different path? Definitely, yes. So this EP I guess sleep was
• 4:30
  Still was what put us on the map a little bit more, especially in
• 4:32
  the Brisbane scene, and we wanted to basically push push something that made us
• 4:40
  feel like we fit, we fit in the genre we fit in as a
• 4:43
  you know, maybe as like a staple of Brisbane metal and stuff like that.
• 4:46
  So this next EP, this what we're pushing for, even with the
• 4:50
  singles, is us branching out into what we really wanted to do and I
• 4:55
  guess a little bit more extreme at both ends. So there's you know,
• 4:59
  a softer very to some songs on the EP, but also some heavier songs,
• 5:03
  which is what we wanted to convey with both Burn with Me and Blood
• 5:06
  Pedals to have a bit of bones. And you guys also recently have supported
• 5:12
  Daybreaker for their Brisbane show mate Like, it's pretty pretty good efforts. Yeah,
• 5:15
  that was That was a fantastic show. Yeah, tell us about it,
• 5:20
  well we are. Honestly, it was so surreal. It was the
• 5:26
  quickest yes we've ever said to a support show, not only because obviously Dave
• 5:30
  Zeka like we're huge fans of them, but also finally getting the chance to
• 5:33
  play alongside our boys in the inert show. It was the ultimate lineup and
• 5:39
  honestly one of the biggest weekends of our life just hanging out with them and
• 5:43
  yeah, networking and just meeting meeting your favorites. It's they always say,
• 5:46
  don't meet your hearers, but it's pretty good sometimes it's speaking of shows made
• 5:54
  avoid head out with the Motion below and Ghost Complex for dates in Melbourne,
• 5:58
  Sydney and Brisbane starting on October seventh. Mate, So tell us a bit
• 6:00
  about that run of shows. Yeah, yeah, absolutely we are. So
• 6:03
  we're doing a little bit of a show considering these latest two singles combine them
• 6:09
  together. Called it the Misery Blooms Tour in reference to both songs. So
• 6:13
  yeah, putting on a little bit of a show. Proven we can get
• 6:15
  ourselves around the country as much as well as much as the East Coast counts
• 6:19
  as most of them come true. And yeah, just putting on some shows,
• 6:24
  gathering some more support before we drop this EP and so we can hopefully
• 6:28
  take it to the next level. Watch these Emotion below and Ghost Complex to
• 6:31
  take with you. Honestly, so Motion below. We're huge sweats. We
• 6:36
  love those guys ever since we played with them at the Future Static show in
• 6:41
  Melbourne December last year. We were just like, these guys are fantastic not
• 6:45
  only as people but also as musicians, and like, considering I'm you know,
• 6:49
  friends with them. I've been hearing a lot of their new material and
• 6:53
  I can't wait to be a part of it. With them Ghost Complex.
• 6:56
  We saw them when we played alongside them at in peril Fest twenty twenty two
• 7:01
  in October, and that was they were just so so tight for one of
• 7:06
  the earlier bands, and like these bands that you should definitely be higher in
• 7:10
  the lineup and we absolutely want to do something with you. And the hardest
• 7:13
  part of this whole tool was, like we like, we like both bands
• 7:15
  so much, who do we put at the top? Who who put at
• 7:17
  the bottom? So I left it to them and I'm like, listen,
• 7:21
  you know, what do you guys want to do because you're both fantastic to
• 7:25
  us so and yeah, we ended up being with Motion at the top.
• 7:28
  But by knowings, you know, says the last fantastic bands and really happened
• 7:33
  on too with them. Right, Good, What do you got planned after
• 7:36
  that? Maybe you gotta think squared away for recording and stuff. By it,
• 7:40
  not not much recording, definitely getting some assets sorted for the next project
• 7:45
  EP that I mentioned. So yeah, we're gonna go a little bit quiet.
• 7:47
  If any shows pop up, We'll be definitely seeing everybody out there getting
• 7:51
  around as much as we can, but yeah, a little bit of downtime
• 7:54
  so we can get out our assets together again every before we let you go.
• 7:59
  But we've started up three news Spotify playlists based on band as we speak
• 8:03
  to so using only revoid songs, giving a song for a playlist to get
• 8:07
  the party started, one for a playlist to save your marriage, and one
• 8:11
  for a playlist to potentially end your marriage. Gosh, okay, all right,
• 8:18
  get the party started. Definitely burn with me. Yep. Something to
• 8:22
  save your marriage would probably be oh god, that's hard actually, because all
• 8:28
  of our songs they're either existential or just like just yeah, out of that.
• 8:33
  But one to ruin your marriage quite easily. Blood Pedals for sure,
• 8:39
  or Poison Saint. That one usually is a good kick in the teeth.
• 8:43
  If anyone ever gets a shout out about that song, I'd look to the
• 8:48
  next DP for something to save your marriage, but maybe just noise in my
• 8:54
  head, just for the vibes that they convey. Beautiful for dale. All
• 8:58
