Saturday. 7 p m Contact the Diversions Editor at dive@uncedu Diversions Tooth plays heavy metal. No ! bones about that. But what does the Durham band the combined efforts ofJ- Me Guptill (vocals). Rich James (guitar), Ben Wilson (guitar), Ryland Fishel (bass) and Noah | Kessler (drums) love? Diversions Editor Bryan Reed caught up with the band, and the ansu'er. apparently, is metal. Dive: Metal being a niche genre, maybe its a little ironic maybe fitting that you're plating the day after Valentines Day. Beil Wilson: It never even occurred to me. Metal has absolutely nothing to do with Valentines Day. Dive: Has there ever been a good metal love song? Ben: Yeah. Didn't Winger have I some shit? (laughs) Ryland Fishel: Didn’t | Firehouse have that song that was I like, (sings) “I finally found the | love of a lifetime"? Ben: “This Lou*." by Pan tern. J-Me Guptill: There you go. That is a legitimate answer. “This Love" by Pantera is a good metal song. Ben: Shit makes me angry. Ryland: And in love! Angry in love. Ben: .ovc usually results in 1 anger. Dive: Well, if metal has noth ing to do with Valentines Day. what does it haw something to do with? FOUR CORNERS 175 E.

CAROLINA PERFORMH NRITYAGRAM DANCE ENSEMBLE OF INDIA f 3H||r TOOTH: ANGRY IN LOVE Ryland: i think it's simply about rocking. Dive: Is there a certain joy that comes with being told to turn it down? Ben: Yeah. man. I had a prob lem in one of my last bands, I was always being told to turn down —and 1 enjoyed that shit. Rich James: It's kinda hard to reconcile good sound with power. We want to be really, really loud, but it’s hard when you’re so loud you can't hear the drums. It's all about. “Exactly how loud can we tweak it before nobody can hear the snare drum?" J-Mei It helps to haw really tall amps, too. Ryland: Even if you're not the loudest band ... they still get the impression that you’re louder because they see those huge speak ers all around. It smells like cookies, man. Dive: it does ... Ryland: Oh, I want some cookies. Noah: And people say we re stoner-metal. Ben: I don’t think so. Dive: Well that's like, with all the subgenres, what does it even mean, you know? Noah: Slow and heavy. Ben: But Skeletonwitch said, “Were mid-paced’ (laughs). Rich: We’ve been called spas tic because our songs kind of skip around a lot. } m jLgj COURTESY OF SAM ROBERTS Tooth will bring straight-ahead metal to Jack Sprat Cafe's stage Friday, flanked by black metal from Edward Teach and Legion of the Fallen. Ben: It’s just one of many influ ences. Metal has all kinds of sub genres, and we pull from it all. Rich: It’s a hodge-podge, but it’s a lot more fun to play that S way. Ryland: There’s stoner-rock riffage, just getting a good, heavy riff and just going with it. I hate bands that have that one awesome part, and it’s just gone. It’s like. “Man, I wish that part would come back." Rich: A lot of stoner-metal. on the other hand, overdoes that. It’s just kind of a drone after a while, and I mean. I low it. I love it when I’m driving or just, like, laving | around staring at the ceiling. Dive: I guess that explains it right there. Contact the Diversions Editor at dive@unc.edu.
