Interviews: Anthony Green talks his new solo album 'Doom. Spun.' https://www.punknews.org/article/83113/interviews-anthony-green-talks-his-new-solo-album-doom-spun https://www.punknews.org/article/83113/interviews-anthony-green-talks-his-new-solo-album-doom-spun Whether you’re familiar with Anthony Green from Circa Survive, Saosin, L.S. Dunes, The Sound of Animals Fighting, or his solo music there is no question that he pours his entire being into every single thing he creates and that is especially true on his upcoming solo record Doom. Spun. The 13 tracks find him at some of his most experimental as he dives into noise rock, brings intimacy to electronic music, delivers a poignant recitation of a poem by French Surrealist poet Robert Desnos, and reimagines three tracks from 2022’s Boom. Done. A sense of connection also permeates the album and serves to drive home the fact that it is impossible to create without it. Whether Anthony is working with collaborators, involving the audience, telling a story, or exploring how certain songs make him feel, you feel like you are along for the ride with him. Doom. Spun. will be out everywhere on June 26 via Born Losers Records. Anthony Green will be hosting two listening parties (one in-person and one virtual) next week and will be playing solo shows around the US starting in September. Punknews editor Em Moore caught up with Anthony to talk about the new album, what goes into reimagining songs, his creative process, finding connection through music, frogs, and so much more.
