Tony, Louie and Jim of Vortis
return to Car Con Carne to talk about their excellent new
garage/punk record (in mono!), “The Miasmic Years.”
Covered in this
episode:
*The accuracy of the new album
title.
*The mind-blowing inspiration for
their song “COVID Blues.”
*Being a politically-charged band
in the 20s: How do you reach beyond the ‘converted?’
*Challenges of being a DIY band
today, as opposed to when Vortis started many years
ago.
*Where do the lyrics come
from?
*Why “The Miasmic Years” is the
best music deal for consumers, by far (seriously).
The men of Vortis are smart,
funny and have a lot to say. I hope you enjoy the chat, and check
out “The Miasmic Years!”
