After years of waiting, noise rock supergroup HUMAN IMPACT is excited to announce that their lineup for the upcoming European tour will include Jon Syverson (Daughters) on drums and Cooper (Made Out of Babies) on bass. “We will miss Phil Puleo and Chris Pravdica, but our evolution as a band continues and Jon and Coop will join us in making these live shows truly unforgettable.” – says the band.
In addition to this great news, the band have hinted at new music so we can hopefully expect some songs to emerge before the tour, and we’ll be excited to share them with you as soon as we are able.
“We’ve been spending the better part of this year working on new music. Maybe we’ll get to share some before we head over to Europe…”
HUMAN IMPACT released their debut album “Human Impact” in March 2020, followed up by a collection of singles and B-sides recorded around the band’s self-titled album.
To celebrate the upcoming tour, we have teamed up with the band’s Jim Coleman for his Top 10 list of things he likes! Check it out below and GO HERE to get your tickets.
Creating and playing music
Rather obvious but needed to start the list with this.
Haruki Murakami books
My favorite is 1Q84.
Swimming in the ocean
The current go-to spot is Tybee Beach in Savannah.
Breaking Bad
That series was near perfect.
John Cassavetes
My favorite film he directed was Love Streams.
Well-conceived organizational production tools and apps.
Check out Airtable.
DAWs.
Specifically Ableton Live and Logic, with a little bit of Bitwig and Reason thrown in.
Driving
This is one activity that demands you stay in the here and now.
Being
As I am getting older I am totally enjoying being a Human Being as opposed to a Human Doing, which dominated much of my earlier life.
Music Hardware
Current faves: Soma Lyra 8, Teenage Engineering OP-1, an Omnichord modified by Folktek, Hologram Microcosm, Red Panda Tensor, Gamechanger Plasma Pedal, Blooper Pedal, Gurus Echosex 3.
