Season 4 Ep.# 9 - Larry Schemel - Death Valley Girls

A legend and all around wonderful person, Larry Schemel has been on the scene for over 30 years and has no intention of ever stopping. Brother of Patty Schemel, drummer of Hole, the Schemel's became of age during the mid to late 70s and saw the crucial punk/hardcore scene come out of the intensity of the Reagan era chaos of the early/mid 80s. It was completely mind boggling to travel through Schemel's outstanding memory of the late 70s rock god phenomenon, the 1980s righteousness and hardcore energy and into the 90s where he saw bands like Nirvana, Bratmobile and Earth come out from under the mist and into the stratosphere of finance and fantasy. History and cosmic hemisphere. Schemel has survived and thrived and his insight into music, culture, film (specifally horror) are nothing but inspiring and modivating. It was a pure joy speaking to the legend and really getting to know him through this in-depth interview and conversation between two people. Enjoy!
