Last week, right before MASTODON ripped Brooklyn a new one, Metal Injection had a chance to sit down and chat with vocalist/bassist Troy Sanders and drummer Brann Dailor for a brand new 15 minute interview. If you enjoy random conversations with a plethora of jokes, this interview is for you.
One of the topics discussed during the interview were the rumors of a Crack the Skye movie. The band elaborated more on what they want to go for:
Metal Injection: What kind of vibe are you going for with [the Crack the Skye movie]? Is it like "The Wall" or the KISS movie?
Brann Dailor: No, not the KISS movie, although that's a great movie.
Metal Injection: Would there be dialog in the movie or is just the music with visuals?
Brann Dailor: I don't know yet. The first thought that we had for it was just the music and a movie to go along with it. That's what the treatment is for. But we talked to some directors and they're kind of into possibly introducing some dialogue so it's a little more cohesive and makes more sense and making it like "The Wall" or something like that. But, it's kind of at a stand still right now. We don't know if it's going to happen, but we want it to happen. I guess we'll see.
Troy Sanders: We're definitely trying everything we can to make this Crack the Skye film, but it's quite involved. You need financial backing, a director on board…but we're working as hard we possibly can and we would like for it to be born.
Brann Dailor: You need assistant directors standing around being like 'Hey, hey, hey, move back. Step back five feet, we're filming a movie here!'
Metal Injection: That guy needs to get paid!
Brann Dailor: Yep.
Troy Sanders: We're eternally searching for the proper catering too.
The entire interview can be seen at this location. Other topics discussed include the vocals on the new album, beards, movies and more randomness.
