Bobby Hussy (The Hussy)
SPB: Would you ever crowdfund a record?
Hussy: I would never crowdfund a record. There are plenty of labels existing and getting music out to the people...and if they can't help you then do what Black Flag did and start a label yourself. Do you think Black Flag ever asked fans to fund their records for them prior to them being released? I highly doubt it.
Bobby Hussy (The Hussy, Fire Heads, Cave Curse) SPB: Are you partial to a specific model of guitar? Bobby: I am partial to a few guitars depending on the project. In The Hussy I almost exclusively used offset Fender guitars like jaguars and jazzmasters, until rather recently when MPLS Guitars … Read more
It’s been fun watching The Hussy grow. All those scuzzy, dirty licks and rough-and-tumble beats of their early work is still present, but on Looming the now-trio lets the once understated melodies take the lead.

This metaphor fell apart before it even hit the page.What didn’t fall apart are Wisconsin duo The Hussy, a guitar and drum two-piece that falls … Read more
Constantin (General Chaos) SPB: What is a lesson you learned from the making-of your first album that directly influenced how you approached album #2? Constantin: I think when we came into studio the second time, we already had an idea of what to expect since we knew the studio and … Read more
Cory (Bat Leather) SPB: What is your favorite music-related film or documentary? Cory: It’s a tie between The Color of Noise and Some Kind of Monster. TCON is possibly the greatest snapshot of the ‘90s noise rock scene. Great interviews and amazing footage. SKOM….Love ‘em or hate ‘em, but watching … Read more
Maria (Sacrosanta Decadencia Occidental – vocals/artist) SPB: The artwork of your album took over a year to make. What was this long experience like for you? Maria: If I were to put it shortly, the first thing that comes to mind is a long and winding road: exhausting but exciting … Read more
