Pizza Pie Do or Die with Sail's Kynan Scott

Normally, when I'm writing these things, it's round about lunch time...and today is no different.

Who remembers the last time we checked in with Sail...who live across the pond? Slumbersong seems to stick in my mind....

As they've got a new single out, let's talk pizza.

1. Pizza is the world's most perfect food. This is not up for debate. 

Please define pizza as based on your geographical location.

Pizza has really seen a massive surge in popularity locally. There are tons of sourdough pizza places popping up everywhere locally so I guess that’s what’s available mostly. 

LP Review: "Slumbersong" by Sail

Slumbersong

Have you noticed the speeches and stories about my cooking for myself and my family?

It's my one avocation that really helps out my family as my wife isn't much on the cooking side. That is is why it's particularly annoying that our daughter prefers her simple dishes to my complex ones.....but anyway.

The only dish that I have personally created is my Tater-Tachos and it's a pretty easy thing. Deep fry frozen tater tots in vegetable oil and then pour on nacho trimmings, cheese, jalapenos, etc.

Mostly, what I have done is taken recipes given to me by others or stolen from bigger chefs and added my particular spin to them. Like consider Philly Cheese Steaks. Put some provel cheese in lieu of the provolone. Baste the inside of the hoagie roll with garlic butter. Bake your cheese steaks to crispy up the joint and bam.

Just try that stuff. You'll be Iron Cook in no time.

Artist Playlist: Sail

We are Sail, and we listen to a whole bunch of different music.

We've got a lot of love for sludge and post-rock - this shows in the music we create - but our individual tastes spread far and wide.

The four of us come from different musical backgrounds and we've all got different favourites; here's a quick selection.

 Deep Purple - Burn


[Charlie] The song that made me want to pick up a guitar all those years ago.

The riff is fantastically simple and to-the-point, a real earworm and powerful as all hell. Deep Purple have such a cool progressive vibe whilst still writing grade A songs and I was instantly hooked.

I still remember when I first heard the track and listening to it now gives me exactly the same feeling as it did back then - a very important song indeed.

Interview: Sail Shares The Twinkly Bits

Sail is on the verge of releasing their "first" album next month.

Originally called Husk, this year they chose to make the always confusing change of their nom de plume. With their new direction, they felt it was time to set fire to the old building and then rise from the ashes.

Thankfully, we were given a bit of time and here's what happened.

Glacially Musical: Thank you for taking sometime for me today.

 Sail: No worries. Thanks for letting me blither in your general direction!

 GM: Let's just get it out of the way and tell me about the name change from Husk to Sail.
