Titus Andronicus' Patrick Stickles discusses grief, faith, Bob Dylan's Christian phase, and the making of the punk outfit's mighty seventh album. Read our convo.
“That’s the punchline of most of my records,” Stickles quips. “I kind of make the same record over and over. The stories are not that different. But hopefully the way you avoid redundancy is you refine it, and make your message more focused and coherent with the perspective that comes with age.” The Airing of Grievances
“I’m in a much different place, for the better, in almost every respect,” Stickles says. “You would hope that in any job — this isn’t always true in rock music — that you would get better as you get older. That’s my hope. But, musically speaking, we’re still going for a thrilling, high stakes, action-packed kind of thing, and I want the emotional content of the lyrics to be substantial.
Stickles’ was so devoted to Ultimate Rock that when he learned Def Leppard used a Rockman x100 amplifier on— and that Boston’s Tom Scholz had created the device — he bought one and used it liberally on. Rock & roll grandeur isn’t new for Titus Andronicus, but where many of their albums contain the scrappy aura of theis stuffed with hi-fi ear candy. There were so many overdubs, the album folder grew to half a terabyte.
You grew up Catholic, and there’s a lot of religious imagery on this album. Is that something you turned to during these difficult moments? The titular anomaly is that the natural world is quite a violent place. If these dogs didn’t have guardians providing them food, what would they do? They would go kill a rabbit or something. They don’t mean any harm, it’s not evil. That’s just the way it is. In the same way that, dare I say, the Covid-19 virus is not an evil thing. That’s not to say I’m a fan of it, we shouldn’t try to protect it.
