195: Bryan St. Pere (Hum)

Illinois band Hum created an expansive sound world, and Bryan St.
Pere’s drumming is the beacon that guides the listener through
thick fields of distortion. Bryan tells Joe about: his
fascination with Bugs; loving Neil Peart so much that he used
Pert Plus shampoo as a child; coming from a “family of struggle”;
having a tightly wound temperament; why recording Hum’s landmark
albums was excruciatingly painful; and how the band dynamic has
evolved, now that Hum is back in the studio.
