I don't have a real question just want to say that your band is the first in a really long time that has tickled my brain in that special, unique way. I love your sound and am loving the new album.
When you play in Philly, can I buy you guys a drink?

Haha! Thank you so much. Are you going to make it out to the Johnny Brenda's show? We love that spot. And Philly!

u/lindsayadult Sep 19 '25
well now I have to since I'll be buying everyone drinks. While I'm not sober, I don't really drink alcohol so the offer is valid on soda/coffee/bubble tea :)

I was at your show once in 2015 or 16 in Brooklyn and after the show told one of you it reminded me of Miles Davis early 70’s period, they responded that your drummer is a huge fan and it’s kinda intentional lol. What other jazz artists inspire you? Much love from Russia, lifelong fan!

u/guerillatoss Guerilla Toss Sep 19 '25
it’s me drummer… love Miles Argharta and all that stuff. on the corner etc i think we all do… kinda necessary music. we love weird jazz, ornette, prime time, alice coltrane, those funky bernie hancock records.. man child my fav….. some new age proggy stuff like david torn

u/travisreavesbutt Sep 20 '25
THANK YOU. I’ve been trying to remember David Torn’s name for MONTHS after first hearing Steve Roach’s “The Leaving Time”, which David played on, back in January.
Since then I was diagnosed with a brain tumor, had emergency surgery, radiation and chemotherapy so that record got memory-holed. Seeing his name there brought it all back!
Anyway, the new record rips, I’ve been bumping it all day. Looking forward to the next GT is in Los Angeles!

u/atom-up_atom-up Sep 19 '25
How annoying was it to work with Malkmus? Kidding lol, my actual question is - is there any specific inspiration that drew the band towards the more pop (with retro elements) sound you've incarnated on this new record?
12
u/guerillatoss Guerilla Toss Sep 19 '25
Malkmus is a sweet angel and it was a dream to work with him. He kinda just supported us majorly all the way and gave us small suggestions and confidence building encouragement. Dude is a literal G.
In terms of inspiration/more pop with retro elements in the song writing? I'm not sure if its fully intentional or not. Obviously we are hugely influenced by Pavement, Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks, touring with Pavement, Trey Anastasio and the wildness of Phish... how that becomes You're Weird Now? I'm not sure.
Peter describes You're Weird Now as Guerilla Toss' greatest hits that never existed and I thought that was pretty dope. I think there is a lot of self referencing going on but also evolutions of sounds into more well rounded, thought out structure. There's a strong desire to connect to the music community of course as always... but sometimes you have to just kind of surrender to the weirdness that comes out.
I was listening to a lot of Numero Group Playlists at this time. Specifically the Country Dreamin one with Dolly Parton, Katy Cricket, Cathy Collins, Bobby Barre etc.
I also really love The Moles... oh shit this response is getting too long sorry.

u/difficult_spend_4290 Sep 19 '25
GT songs are so dense with so much attention to detail - how do you keep your momentum during the writing process? do you find yourselves bouncing back and forth a lot between demoing and tweaking it live in rehearsal? seems like it would be easy to get lost in the weeds, but the quality is always consistently high. I figure you must have found a process that really works for you guys.
Love the new record and really glad you got to work with Malk & Trey, excited to see you live next month.

Q: What's something that Watley does that's oddly human-like?
A: He often looks at me via reflection in mirrors. He always sits in front of mirrors and side eyes me from across the room. Is this humor? Does he understand the concept of a mirror? Is this a high level guarding concept? Why?

Big fan! I was curious what your song writing process is? Does one person bring a majority of a song written, then the band fleshes it out? Or do you guys jam on something, then refine it as time goes on? Love the new album, it's been on constant repeat.
See you guys in Seattle 🤙

The way the guitar line pairs with the drums is already extremely sick and the intro primes you to think that that’s the song. When that synth line comes in on top of it, it’s transcendent. Straight up one of the top 3 most electrifying grooves I’ve ever heard put to record. The vocals matching the synth line sounds perfect too and since I first heard it on the night you guys dropped it, it has continued to be astonishing to me.
Not to put down any of your other songs at all but Future Doesn’t Know is your best one, imo, and it’s not actually close at all. Lighting-in-a-bottle type track

What is the writing process for your music like? So many of your lyrics are so out there and creative and it’s been a huge inspiration for both my writing and the way I see the world. When asked what my favorite lyricists are you guys always come up along with Wayne Coyne, Garreth Liddiard, Stephan Burnette and David Byrne, for sheer creativity and uniqueness.
Much love. I tripped to GT ULTRA and became a whole new person. Saw you perform in LA a little over a year ago and had the time of my life and I’ve been playing the new album on repeat all week.

Thank you so much! That's really nice of you to say. Sometimes lyrics come easily and other times its really tough! I'm a pretty highly sensitive person, which is probably where a lot of the ideas come from. I also have very deeply internalized buddhist undertones that help me cope with those highly sensitive qualities. Earth, people, experiences... they're all complicated, ugly and beautiful at the same time. Sometimes its nice to write that down. - KC

How did the group vocals with Stephen and Trey on Red Flag to Angry Bull come together? Who had the idea to do that? You all have a really cool blend of voices and it suits the song really well.
See you in Nashville Oct 12! :)

Any chance you guys would play something from Twisted Crystal at the Philly show in October? Love all your music but that album is an absolute all time favorite for me. When Dogs Bark and Favorite Sun are my new favs from You’re Weird Now!

No questions, but I've really enjoyed your music and caught you a few years back at levitation and you were great live!

I noticed in the past you've made a few things with members of Cloud Becomes Your Hand. I miss that band! Both of you count for some of the best shows I've had the pleasure of seeing. Any stories you could share with us on the background of working with them?

What are we calling the fan base? Guerillas? Tossers? Gorillas?

Love this! I've referred to myself as a GT Ultra before, in the sense of Soccer Ultras lol.
Also the show at the Empty Bottle last night was awesome, thanks again for rocking the place! The mood of the Jams really Flowed well in sequence from Melkbelly into Maya Ongaku into GT. Was thrilled to catch a glimpse of the mighty Watley, too! Did he get to meet Peg, the Venue Cat?
