Episode 177: Sculpture Club
You can also listen to this episode on your streaming platform of choice via Wavve.
Episode 177 of Look At My Records! features an interview with Chaz Costello of Salt Lake City goth-punk outfit Sculpture Club. The band just released their long-awaited sophomore full-length, Worth, last month on Funeral Party Records. The songs of the album largely came together last year, when like many of us, Costello found himself with a lot of extra time on his hands. He began revisiting demos that he put to the side and started recording new ones, eventually entering the studio with Wes Johnson at Archive Studios in Salt Lake City. Tune in to our interview to hear all about the recording experience behind Worth, which Costello describes as a bit more free-form when compared with their debut, the inspiration behind the band’s more guitar-driven sound, what the music scene is like in Salt Lake City, and more. Costello also shared some insights on his lyric writing process and hand-selected some awesome records from my collection, including choice cuts from The Cranberries, Saves The Day, The Exploding Hearts, and more! You can follow along with Chaz’s picks via the official playlist for Episode 177.
You can purchase Worth on vinyl via Bandcamp or Funeral Party Records. The album is also available on all streaming platforms, including Spotify. Keep up with the band by following them on Instagram.
