BOBBLE TIKI: WIDE EYE PANIC >>>
Bobble Tiki loves him some Wide Eye Panic. The Lacey-based band is loud, heavy and moody, but when someone calls ‘em hardcore, it makes Bobble Tiki feel sorta dirty. They’re no more a hardcore band than Styx is a black metal act. Bobble Tiki digs their smart structures, freakin’ melodies, a brutal sense of dynamics and a complete willingness to tear your neck off makes Bobble Tiki sweet on them.
Wide Eye Panic celebrates the release of their new CD, The Process, tonight at Maggie O’Toole’s. Bobble Tiki caught up with WEP drummer Andrew Kuhn to discuss The Process.
BOBBLE TIKI: How is The Process different from your first album?
ANDREW KUHN: It differs due to the evolution of all of us as musicians and friends. We all took the time to further explore our instruments. Writing was a huge difference as well. The whole band took part in the writing this time around. The quality and length of the recording process was quite different, too. We spent more time and money understanding our gear. The Process is more what we set out to create. The Process had a great mindset. We all were in a great mood and had some failed relationships and other life events that helped us create a masterpiece.
TIKI: Why the title The Process?
KUHN: The Process was initially the title of the current song "Clarity." Our producer, Dave Filburn, had a vision of the title of the record so we changed it. It was a process as well.
TIKI: Does the crowd at Maggie O'Toole's rock?
KUHN: The crowds we play to are quite amazing in the fact that they have grown in numbers. Our philosophy is â€" you pay $5 to see us, we give you a $50 show. As for Maggie O' Toole's, a lot of our Tacoma based fan show up there. It's always a good party.
