In this Emo Kids Anonymous interview, host Robb Laffoon welcomes Ben and Luke from the Cincinnati-based band Scarlet Street to discuss their upcoming album 'No Alternative.' The conversation jumps all over but we cover the band's musical influences, origins, and everything inbetween. They share insights on their unique sampling choices (shoutout Jimmy Carter), the evolution of the band, and the importance of cohesive albums in today's landscape of slop. The episode also touches on their recording experiences, including a memorable session at a gas station, and their collaboration with producer Gary Cioni. Robb Laffoon and Ben Seitz bond over their shared emo upbringing, exploring how it resonates with listeners beyond their teenage years. They discuss the challenges artists face today, particularly with the rise of streaming and social media, and the pressure to constantly produce new content. It gets a little bleak at times, but so does our world. As they reflect on the future of live music and the evolving industry, they share their thoughts on the significance of making music that resonates with both the artists and their audience.
