Conrad Keely has been a hero of mine for a long time. Since being shocked and beguiled by the lyrics to the title track from …And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead’s 4th studio album, ‘Worlds Apart’ I’ve been a fan ever since. Their 5th record, ‘So Divided’ is one of my favourites of all time and their 3rd record, ‘Source Tags & Codes’ received a 10 out of 10 review from Pitchfork (Pitchfork can get f#@ked but that’s still pretty bad ass). The band has currently just completed the recording of their 11th studio album and are getting ready to release and get back out and tour around the globe again.
Hear Conrad and I discuss hitting a guy in the head with a guitar, practical rider requests, hungover twitter posts, inventing a game called Frisball and a bunch more.
