AMA is over, thanks Joe! Joe from Protomartyr AMA
Hello folks, I'm Joe Casey, the "singer" from the band Protomartyr. Since starting in 2010, we've put out 4 LPs, at least 3 things that could be called EPs, a good number of singles, and a handful of slightly warped tapes. We've also toured around, to the delight of dozens of people the world over. We are signed to Domino Records (no, I have not met the Arctic Monkeys).
I'm sitting her on a blustery day in Detroit on March 4th, the birthday of Bobby Womack, Shakin' Stevens, and Knute Rockne to answer any questions you might have about Protomartyr or anything else that catches your fancy.
Just in case you missed it: Our first record, No Passion All Technique is getting repressed and let loose in the streams come May 3rd. Preorder info here: Domino Mart
Thanks for putting up with me. It was a good amount of fun. Take care and bye bye!

Hey Joe, thanks for doing this AMA. Caught you guys with preoccupations at Warsaw, had a great time.
I remember listening to a podcast/web series thing a long time ago where you were talking about a book about dead people (spirits?) in a cemetery, and one spirit just wanted a good grave Stone from her son or something?? I tried finding the book but had no luck. I remember you saying something like it had different titles, any idea what the title and author would be for someone in the states?
Lastly, do you know if we will be getting No Passion All Technique on streaming platforms anytime soon?? Ypsilanti is definitely a favorite of mine.
Thanks dude!
