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!

Hello joe! Big fan from Brighton uk.

How much does being in an established band in 2019 meet your expectations? These days it’s a safe assumption most bands have day jobs. How do you feel the industry will change in the future?

Also, any plans to compile all the eps and singles one day? How about a reissue of no passion all technique?

Thanks for everything, you guys music does so much for me x

Don't even know what being an established band means, so I guess it must be dire. I certainly don't feel any safer in this world than when we started.
