We, the collective at 3:33 AM Productions, welcome you back to our flagship Podcast. It has been a wild and tumultuous few months, and we would like to humbly thank you all for your patience. This week we have Kenny Elkin of Cult Lecture/Vali S.C. He is not here pushing a new record (though he has one on the horizon with some incredible people), he stopped by to reconnect a standing bond that we've shared since we had first met. This episode is an ode to friendship. Kenny's film and music works are available on YouTube @cultlecture, all streaming platforms, and "To Set The Sea In Wolves Teeth" cassette as well as longsleeve tees available at https://summerdarlingtapes.bigcartel.com, https://cultlectureatx.bigcartel.com

Today, while you attempt to ignore the overdraft fees and oncoming credit statements from another Black Friday of big ticket purchases and wine hangovers, I present the solace via my conversation with Matt from Now After Nothing. The new E.P. "Artificial Ambivalence" (available on streaming and physical media, including vinyl) is now available at https://nowafternothing.bandcamp.com. They have been featured on ION Indie Magazine, Post-Punk.com, OffShelf.net, and Idioteq.com, and their trajectory is undeniable. NAN are poised to break their brand of S&M Discotheque anthems to a much broader listenership.

Samhain is upon us, an what better soundtrack (aside from the Ramones, The Misfits, and The Cramps) than a duo that harnesses Electro, New Wave, Vetch House, Post Punk, and Darkwave into the Punk spectrum like Vempire? It serves as the most saccharine of treats for you Halloween trickery as the undead are given agency over the living and the veil thins! https://vempiretheband.bandcamp.com
