258: Brian Chippendale (Lightning Bolt, Black Pus)

Brian Chippendale is perhaps best known as the drummer and
vocalist for the Providence duo, Lightning Bolt. A band perfectly
suited to Chippendale's singular gift for conjuring colorful and
frenetic noisescapes. He is also a prolific visual artist and
graphic novelist. Brian tells Joe about: his childhood in New
York state and Pennsylvania; his long-lasting aversion to
becoming a grown up; attending art school at RISD; the genesis
and evolving dynamic of Lightning Bolt; Fort Thunder--the
legendary 6000 sq. ft. art loft in which he lived in the 90s; and
how parenthood has changed his life, especially in the times of
sheltering in place.
