"This isn't a trial run". That's such a great statement, in the context of this interview. Fans say YOB is love, and that's a good way to describe the "music as medicine" aspect.
god Mike is the absolute MAN. i hope Yob is put on as high a pedestal as Sabbath in number of decades, they truly deserve it. nobody writes riffs like this guy.
I was just watching your YOB vids on his hometown life and early influences, I love hearing what inspires artists as a musician myself and finding similarities, epic band, awesome dude, who takes influences from so many artists and musical genres and I really respect that as I enjoy and am inspired by many different musical circles....
5 Songs that changed my life: Marrow (Acoustic) - YOB (thank you, Mike) Tuna in the Brine - Silverchair Everything in Its Right Place - Radiohead Les Voyages de l'Âme - Alcest Swordsman - Këkht Aräkh
Excellent interview as always. I can't express how helpful Yob was in getting me through the last 2 years. A calm when I needed it. Our Raw Heart is warmth. Big fan for many years, and meeting Mike in San Diego not long before he fell ill was very cool. Marrow is closing in on my favorite song ever.
I had the Cathedral In Memoriam demo when it first came out, as well as the Dark Passages comp Lee put out on his Rise Above Records label, loved that demo, and that comp from start to finish. I had mixed feelings about the Equilibrium debut and seeing them live on that Grindcrusher tour was very off-putting though lol
Pretty woman, walkin' down the street Pretty woman the kind I like to meet Pretty woman I don't believe you, you're not the truth No one could look as good as you, mercy…
Mike is the Schiedt

Bowie's Black Star was the greatest exit from this life a person could ever have.

Can't wait for the next YOB album!
Mike is one of the most talented songwriters and vocalists that ever will be.

Delighted to hear Revelation getting a mention. Revelation are just about the greatest doom band there's ever been

Mike is great. Love Christina’s interviews.
YOB is LOVE
What a great interview. Could totally hang out in the kitchen late at night talking music with Mike.
Phenomenal so grateful for this
💜YOB is Love🕉
I admire Mike so much.
Christina does the best interviews! So conversational and easy going. Been a fan since the early Void days!
Mike's pretty good too I suppose.
Has the playlist of everyone's 5 songs been released? I'd love to listen to that.
YOB is love. God is love. YOB is God.
Great interview! Thank you.
