Teen Suicide Band Interview Free Via Mediafire

Emotive and incredibly intricate, Ray teases soundscapes to evoke vivid imagery and memories his work functions almost like classical music or a film score where the accompanying scenes are left to the listener to construct. She died from a combination of the fall and the lava itself, which ranged in temperature from 1,450☏ to 2,200☏ (800☌ to 1,200☌).Metacritic TV Episode Reviews, Teen Suicide Sadness Van Halen Tribute Band Fail, A father plagued by the death of his 16-year-old son tries to spare his family more heartache by reclaiming and keeping safe the guns use.As someone who is constantly creating, often finishing entire albums in the time it takes for one to be released, it’s difficult to talk about Ray’s body of work without generalizing, but what ties it all together is the unique stamp he places on everything—a signature that alters slightly with time, but is unmistakably his. On February 11, 1933, student Kiyoko Matsumoto took her life by jumping into the Mount Mihara crater, Japan, from the platform that allowed viewing of the molten lava below. Oh, and he’s also sitting on a follow-up to Three Love Songs, his break-out album with Ricky Eat Acid.10 Suicide by Volcano. Last year, his unconventional indie-pop outfit Julia Brown gave away their first “proper” album for free via Mediafire (before Joy Void released it physically much later) this month his even less conventional band Teen Suicide delivered their seventh and final album he’s released a single through Ryan Hemsworth’s Secret Songs label, and assembled more mixes and mixtapes for fun than I did for all my crushes in high school combined. A restless polymath, Ray has done more in the last two years than many artists manage across an entire career.

I keep referring to it as a ‘fluffer’ and they hate that.”Three Love Songs can be loosely pointed to as the moment Ray began to knit his interests together most seamlessly. Either get me pumped up about it, because I’m not half the time, or like a hype man. I keep trying to get to hire someone to do that all for me. “It’s a weird thing, definitely,” he tells me, “You have to, not pretend, but get a lot more excited about everything than you might be, because so much time has passed. By the time it all reaches the public, it feels old.

“I start by hearing something that I really like, and I think man, I need to fucking do that," he says of his writing process, "I need to do it better somehow—and I don’t, but in trying and failing spectacularly it becomes its own thing. Each release feels like another step on a linear journey to a sound that coalesces his interests, which is tricky when the spectrum ranges from Red House Painters to Hudson Mohawke. There are house tracks on Teen Suicide albums, melodies in Ricky Eat Acid songs that were intended for Teen Suicide, and a similar use of found sound samples can be found in all his endeavours.

A good amount of people I know ended up in rehab or whatever at some point. But that’s not always the case, I guess. I was in Boston one time catching up with an old friend and we were talking about high school and someone overheard us and she said ‘I’m sorry to interrupt, but did you grow up in Baltimore or nearby?’ And I said ‘Yeah, we grew up there,’ and she said ‘I grew up in Towson and everything you’re talking about is the exact same way I would describe it,’ and so we laughed about it for a little bit. “I would black out back then for long periods of time and wake up with these songs written and recorded on tape players,” he says.“Everyone I know and have ever met here has done heroin at least once,” he tells me, “It’s funny, I’ll go on tour and realize that’s not the case with a lot of people I meet. It’s there overtly in Teen Suicide lyrics like “ I wanna get high with you in my room,” more subtly in Julia Brown’s bleak “ how I spent my summer”—which opens with a clip of Ray murmuring “I was doing heroin in my car and listening to ‘Genius of Love,’” with the word “heroin” slightly scrambled—and it’s there in the Ambien-driven recording processes of early Ricky Eat Acid albums like seeing little ghosts everywhere, which Ray doesn’t remember recording most of. Perhaps as a result, he addresses drug use with the matter-of-factness most people would use to talk about underage drinking.

There are songs about struggling with depression and self-medication, others about the highs and lows of life written from the perspective of someone who’s already dead, musings on what daily life in purgatory would be like—get dressed, get a haircut, go to the bank—and a factual list of all the things a friend suffering from addiction stole from Ray and his mom while he was living at their house, followed by a message of forgiveness. That said, while their new album It’s the Big Joyous Celebration, Let’s Stir the Honeypot is intended as a corrective to the past, it's also building on everything that made Teen Suicide so captivating in the first place.A mouthful both by name and nature, Joyous Celebration ricochets between punk, noise, country, house, and everything in between, challenging conceptions of what a record could or should be. Their formative recklessness is something Teen Suicide has since made an effort to atone for during their hiatus and beyond, owning up to the consequences of growing up, in Ray’s words, “privileged and publicly on social media”. Ray, embarrassed, tried to distance himself from it. When it did, the tempestuousness and negativity that informed it in the first place saw them lash out at fans online and at shows, making careless comments about LGBT issues, and each other, that eventually destroyed the band. Originally an outlet for Ray's unhappiness and tendencies towards self-destructive behavior, Teen Suicide was a deeply personal project never intended to reach an audience.

For example, the layered, country-leaning “Neighborhood Drug Dealer” is about a group of people Ray used to know who bought Dilaudid from their friend in high-school. It’s grounded more by the hard-learned lesson that addiction will usually result in either prison or death, but as has always been the case with Teen Suicide, dark tales are spun with dark humor. As if to state that from the offset this time, a sticker on the front of the record advertises it as ‘a 26-song metanarrative about heroin addiction, death, and grocery shopping’.Unlike some of Teen Suicide’s earlier stuff, there’s no real nostalgia or depressive romanticism to be found on Joyous Celebration. When coupled with the fact that Ray writes in minimal poetry, the name Teen Suicide means their music is sometimes taken as a grand, confessional statement, which skips over the fact that it often has its tongue firmly in its cheek.
