Steve died suddenly on May 7. This chat was about the new <a href=\"https://store.touchandgorecords.com/collections/shellac\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Shellac</a> album, <a href=\"https://store.touchandgorecords.com/products/shellac-to-all-trains-cd-lp\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em>To All Trains</em></a>, and Steve told me about every song, though I hadn't yet heard the album. Preparing this episode was sad and surreal; it felt like Steve was still here. The interview itself appears at roughly the 45:00 mark, after my own remembrance and tribute. I love you Steve and will miss you forever. Thank you for everything.</p><p><br></p><p>Support vish on&nbsp;<a href=\"https://www.patreon.com/kreativekontrol\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Patreon</a>!
