Like Kiss- they did like crazy over-the-top like pyrone stuff that isn’t allowed now and is really expensive.

I guess like how a lot of those older rock bands would do it. It's like your kind of escaping normal life for a night and just like-I want it to be a cool experience.

LF: How much do live performances add to your whole thing? Does it add to the whole Starcrawler experience?ĪD: From the start I always thought I'd be cool to treat shows almost like like you're stepping into this bands world. I kinda want to, I don't know, grow as a stage performer and not just stay in the same exact place cuz there’s only so long that can last. LF: So, are you gonna change up the character?ĪD: I mean not too drastically, but definitely like- I guess “change”is a bad word. I think if you stick with the same character you just kind of end up like fat Marilyn Manson that’s just not impactful. There’s only so long you can- you know Bowie had his different phases of his character, you know. I'm just trying to start phasing it out a little bit. I don't really like it being like- someone would be like, “Are going to do blood tonight?” and it would make me not want to do it… But then for me it got a little boring, a little routine. I just got a little bored because people were expecting it and it kind of took the fun out of it for me. I haven't actually been spitting blood in a while even since pre-covid like the last couple tours. And then they changed them and they look more like magenta, I don't know. So like when I first started spitting them they looked really real and like dark red like it looked like how blood looks, like kinda clotty and stuff. And then the blood capsules I used, the people that make them or the company like changed the formula. People would call up a medic and stuff and I love that. It would look real at first because it looked like I was coughing up blood, and I would just play into it. That's why it was fun for me because it wasn't just like Gwar where it was obviously just fake. But I didn’t wanna directly copy that, so like, at first I really wanted people to be scared, and think it was real. He would spit blood, but it would be like an endless fountain of blood, and I thought it looked really cool. There’s a very artistic and wacky side to it.ĪD: It was something I had really wanted to do, because I saw Gene Simmons. LF: I was wondering about the way that you perform. She just looked so cool, so we made up like like a scary story about it… Our songs either have a real life story, like something that happened to us, or we find inspiration from something and make up an entire story about it.

Like, shopping cart full of chickens, and all-black clothing. I assume she either would take them to a slaughterhouse, or like a restaurant or something but she looked so goth. She would walk down to Chinatown to- I don't know where she was going, but she had a shopping cart filled with chickens. Me and Henry went to school downtown like near Chinatown. as an inspiration for a song?ĪD: I mean obviously “I Love LA”, but “Chicken Woman” is another one. Like Los Angeles is very inspiring to me just seeing like weirdos on the street and making up stories about them and stuff like that. For individual songs, they kind of get inspired by like-real things that happen in our lives, or people on the street. Those were the first bands that really made me want to start a band, and then from there my inspiration kind of grew. LF: What if your inspiration behind the music you create, because it's very specific? what kind of impacted you to start making music?ĪD: I don't know! I know every song is different, but like what inspired me to first start making music was definitely like- I don't know just discovering records that inspire me like, Ozzy, and The Runaways, and Kiss.
