"We became mermaids at the parade."
In this conversation Pepe does his best to get The Looms to open up about some rumors surrounding the band. They share their unique journey, touching on themes of rituals, personal loss, and the collaborative nature of songwriting. The band members reflect on their diverse backgrounds, from metal influences, philosophical studies & working in the medical field. The discussion culminates in a deep dive into the meaning behind their song 'Mourning Star'. The band members share their experiences with live performances, stepping out of their comfort zones, and the impact of digital communication. We close out playing the song 'Mourning Star.'
