On this episode of the Adventures of Pipeman, Pipeman speaks to HIM from Sermon, to talk about their new album and the state of the world today. The conversation starts with Pipeman telling HIM that he is excited to have them on the show because they have some killer new music. HIM thanks Pipeman for the introduction and Pipeman responds by saying that he is from the New York, New Jersey area and he is brutally honest. HIM jokingly says that Pipeman should have told them if their music was crap. This sparks an idea in Pipeman’s mind to start off all interviews in the same manner. Pipeman talks about how HIM’s new album is all about what the world is going through today and how hateful people are, which really burns him all the time. This is why Pipeman loves HIM’s new music. HIM agrees with Pipeman, saying that the subject of the album is interchangeable with most of human history, but it feels more potent now because of the internet. Pipeman responds, saying that sometimes he thinks they were better off without the internet and social media and not knowing how hateful people were. HIM agrees and adds that it is nice to be able to shut off from the noise if you want to, but it is difficult to have a day where you can escape that kind of information. The conversation takes a lighter turn when Pipeman shares that he was in Bali for a couple of months and how he was able to escape all the noise from social media and the internet. HIM expresses interest in Bali and asks what religion is predominant in Bali. Pipeman says that most of it is Hindu, but they also have Buddhism. He adds that it is cool to see two different philosophies sharing a temple. HIM agrees and shares about multi-faith prayer rooms in museums, where Catholics and Muslims pray together, and says it's a beautiful thing to witness. The conversation ends on a positive note, with both Pipeman and HIM enjoying the exchange of ideas. You can check the band out on social media, via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter @Sermonsound if you want to keep up to date with them, and you can be sure to find their music available to purchase from must good music outlets.

On March 31st, melodic-melancholic-doom outfit Sermon will release their sophomore album, Of Golden Verse, via Prosthetic Records. Departure is song that was sent “Golden is what I want Sermon to be,” he notes. “It’s got the intricate, indulgent prog thing going on, it’s got a big old chorus and the structure is a bit weird. It keeps going up and up and up. It’s not just verse and chorus. It just keeps climbing. It’s all about the idea of people weighing each other down to get them to think the way they’re thinking. It’s like conversion - you’re constantly weighed down by other people and in the end you give up, and you say, ‘Okay, I agree with you…’ just to end it. That constant weighing down is an abuse of power. So with Golden, the idea is that you’re just raining down gold on this person until they’re completely cast in it.”
