LARS ULRICH Says His Sons' Band TAIPEI HOUSTON Is 'Very Unique': 'There's Some Crazy S**t On There'

Prior to METALLICA's headlining performance Thursday (July 28) at this year's Lollapalooza festival in Chicago's Grant Park, drummer Lars Ulrich spoke to local radio station Rock 95.5 about TAIPEI HOUSTON, the new band featuring his sons Myles and Layne Ulrich. Earlier in the week, TAIPEI HOUSTON released its debut single, "As The Sun Sets", along with a music video directed by Victor Grossling.

"Well, obviously, I'm proud," Lars said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET). "I'm happy that they're doing well. What they're creating is cool. At the same time, we have a very, I think, open and transparent relationship, and certainly a couple of times along the way I've expressed that maybe things could be better; I don't know if that's the right word. So it's not just, 'Oh my God! You guys are great.' And so [I've given them constructive criticism] maybe even to a fault — maybe too much constructive criticism. So I don't know exactly where you land on that.

"I can tell you everything that that project is came together, I'd say, the second half of the pandemic," he explained. "And when they came home from New York in March of '20, I guess, it was not quite as focused. And it took a while — I think it took about a year — for it to kind of take shape. There was lots of time spent and they really worked hard, but eventually they sort of zeroed in on the sound and their whole thing. And I think they've got something that's very unique.

"Their record is coming, I guess, in a couple of months, the full album, and it's a barnburner," Ulrich added. "There are songs on there that make [the first single] sound like SIMON & GARFUNKEL. So there's some crazy shit on there. And it's a very, very, very intense record. When you listen to it from beginning to end, it'll definitely give you a bit of a pummeling, which is good."

Formed in the Bay Area in Northern California, TAIPEI HOUSTON was born out of both brothers coming back to their childhood home during the pandemic. They then moved down to Los Angeles, and once able to perform live again, started playing shows throughout Southern California.

TAIPEI HOUSTON viscerally taps into all of the best parts of the last 30 years of rock 'n' roll, layering garage rock's frenetic sparsity with grunge's fuzzy overdrive, and psych rock's effortless instrumental sprawl. The band's megawatt, slinky songs instantly conjure other iconic duos, such as THE KILLS, DEATH FROM ABOVE 1979 and, of course, THE WHITE STRIPES.

TAIPEI HOUSTON is set to play Reading and Leeds festivals this summer, in addition to their own headlining shows throughout the U.S. before the year is out.

Upcoming tour dates:

Aug 24 - London, UK @ Camden Assembly
Aug. 27-28 - Reading & Leeds Festival
Sep. 05 - San Francisco, CA @ Great American Music Hall*
Sep. 06 - San Jose, CA @ The Ritz*
Sep. 07 - Bakersfield, CA @ Temblor Brewing Company*
Sep. 08 - Petaluma, CA @ Mystic Theatre*
Sep. 09 - Felton, CA @ Felton Music Hall*
Sep. 10 - Fresno, CA @ Strummers*
Sep. 22 - Louisville, KY @ Louder Than Life
Oct. 08 - Sacramento, CA @ Aftershock 2022
Oct. 09 - Austin, TX @ Austin City Limits
Oct. 16 - Austin, TX @ Austin City Limits

* Supporting THE MELVINS

23-year-old Myles, who plays drums, has spent time at Berklee College Of Music, while 21-year-old Layne, who plays bass and sings, studied at NYU.

Asked what got him into singing, Layne told Concert Pipeline: "I was always really interested in singing. I mean, my main thing [was] literally just singing along to the radio as a kid and just listening to stuff. And I always felt very into that but I'd never been a singer or anything like that. And then when we were first starting out with our project, we were always anticipating getting a singer, and then when we realized it was just gonna be the two of us, it was, like, 'All right. Now we've gotta get this going, get some singing going.' So through kind of a long process, finding that, it was really cool."

Regarding the decision to make TAIPEI HOUSTON a two-piece, Myles said: "We wrote the majority of an album which we've now finished. And we're kind of figuring out how to play it all live because we just recorded all of it. And because we both play so much guitar and all the instruments, it was, like, 'Why don't we just scale it back and make it a crazy two-piece thing instead of trying to find more people that you jell with and that the vibe is right? Why don't we just keep it simple and weird?'"

Added Layne: "'Cause also that way we can hit the ground running. You've gotta find people you like, you've gotta get them into the stuff, you've gotta teach them it. That way, literally, just coming straight from us having written all of it together, we can just hit the ground running like that."

TAIPEI HOUSTON played its first show last September at Alex's Bar in Long Beach, California.

Since joining Instagram in August, TAIPEI HOUSTON has already amassed more than 15,000 followers.

Back in April 2020, Lars posted a video of Myles and Layne's blistering take on THE BEATLES classic "Eleanor Rigby". At the time, he described their rendition to Rolling Stone as "this insane, three-minute BLUE CHEER, crazy, garage-rock version of 'Eleanor Rigby'.

"Obviously, there's been some incredible versions of 'Eleanor Rigby' along the way, but I'm pretty sure there’s never been one that had this kind of sound, this kind of feel, this kind of energy and madness to it," he said. "I was, like, 'You know what, boys? You done me proud.'"

Lars had Myles and Layne with former wife Skylar Satenstein. He also has another son, 15-year-old Bryce, with "Gladiator" actress Connie Nielsen.

Lars and model Jessica Miller got engaged in July 2013 and married two years later. It is the third marriage for Lars, who was previously married to Debbie Jones and Satenstein.

Lars isn't the only member of METALLICA whose offspring have followed in their footsteps. Castor Hetfield, the son of METALLICA frontman James Hetfield, plays drums for BASTARDANE, while Tye Trujillo, the son of METALLICA bassist Robert Trujillo, plays bass in OTTTO.

панк от тоже бывает разный . бывает жёсткий и крутой как Мисфутс и Рамонез а бывает прилизанный мтвишный поп-панк . Это второй случай . к тому совершенно не интересный так как их на 30 лет опередили Грин дэй и Блинк 182

olly71, Извини, но нет. Это скорее нео-гараж в духе The Hives. То есть это гараж/Прото-панк ревайвл. Истоки - Rolling Stones, the Kinks, New York Dolls и,конечно же the Stooges

На счет того, что поп-панк - это мимо в их случае, слышно же, что им ближе инди сцена, чем укорененный, пусть и попсовый панк.
Ну и даже если так, как ты написал, не забывай, что все эти MTV-панк команды типа the Offspring, Green Day и Blink 182 - это смазливые и фотогеничные клоны Bad Religion и Nofx

Ну и Mistfist… ты их слушал вообще? Это же тот же поп-панк по музыке, но только с шок-рок имиджем и текстами, но по мелодиями это довольно мягкая музыка, хотя в ней (в раннем материале) есть влияние 60-х, но опять же поп-серфа типа the Beach Boys. Да и Ramones чуть ли не первая поп-панк группа, просто рок эн ролла побольше, чем в музыке тех же Green Day и Offspring.

WahrandPhain

gravitgroove, оба правы, тут остается лишь добавить что панк, сыгранный чтобы остаться в традиции - это провал и противоречит самому понятию панка. Очень люблю the Clash, Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, потому что они взяли и перевернули нахуй игру, не говоря уже о гениальных Amebix, у которых проскакивал блэковый рифф раньше, чем собственно этот самый блэк появился.

WahrandPhain, Да по хуй что играют главное как . Их папа в их возрасте уже записал гениальный Райт зе Лайт а они делают это что бы понравится папе . Всё таки есть устойчивое мнение что талант на детях великих отдыхает и на 99% это потом доказывается . Папа их наверно будет продвигать со своими связями и деньгами но ничем хорошим это не закончится. Да бывают исключения у известного музыканта Дона Мензы родился гениальный сын музыкант Ник но дети Харриса Хетфилда Ульриха Цоя так истануться для всех детьми известных родителей.

WahrandPhain, Да ну какие Amebix и блэковые риффы.

Это однозначно только 1985 - Bathory - трэк «Rite of Darness” (альбом the Return…Darkness and Evil). Это от корки до корки в первозданном и примитивном виде первый образец скандинавского блэк риффа.

Но, может, ты какие-то свои ассоциации имеешь на счет Amebix. У меня есть схожие, но от упомянутых тобой Dead Kennedys в трэке с Frankenchrist “ This Could Be Anywhere”. Такой злой серф-псайходелие, и еще Christian Death на “…only Theatre of Pain” ярко выражено в «Figurative theater” и «Spiritual Cramp” (тут вообще звук как на дебюте Burzum)

WahrandPhain

gravitgroove, могу доказать - сингл Winter, вещь Beginning of the end. Начальный риффак 100% блэковый, это я как истовый фанат и ценитель тебе говорю. 1983, Куортон еще занимается околотрэшевой хуйней. Иди чекай, потом расскажешь. Я не говорил про всю песню, понятно там ритм секция и вокал вообще мимо черноты, но риффак именно блэкушный, абсолютно никаких сомнений нет. Скидывал 4м разным знакомым, все однозначно подтвердили.
