ANALOG CAVE

INTERVIEW WITH GUITARIST / SINGER SEAN WOOD BY JOHN SILVA

The cover of the highly anticipated sixth record from The Spits, feels almost prophetic. It depicts a world in chaos, with skyscrapers tilting, a Cephalopoda monster creeping out a window, and a person, or some type of humanoid creature, in apocalypse gear including, yes, gloves and a gas mask, clutching a skateboard. While skyscrapers might not be falling over and most cephalopods are in the ocean where they belong, the image of a person in a mask and gloves is an eerily accurate portrait of the world we find ourselves in. Yet somehow, this is entirely coincidental.

“This was months before the whole Coronavirus thing,” says guitarist and vocalist Sean Wood. “The creature with the gas mask, and the skateboard, and the weird monster sneaking into the building, and kind of gloomy shit - it fits the times, that’s for sure.”

“IT’S NOT REALLY A JOB OR A BAND, IT’S MORE A WAY OF LIFE.”
