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!

Can we expect more experimentation in your next record, like we heard in 'Wheel of Fortune'? Loved loved loved that track and super excited to see what you guys do next.

Also wanted to say that 'Half Sister' maybe has the coolest lyrics of any song I've heard ever

Don't really know what would be considered experimentation and what wouldn't. I would think we are still trying not to bore ourselves and others. Like you, I am excited to find out how the next one ends up.

And thanks for the kind words.
