Everything Went Black PodcastEWB 367 DANA SCHECHTERDana Schechter or Insect Ark and Swans joins us this week. We spend a lot of time talking about “Raw Blood Singing” the new Insect Ark album, a record that I can say right now, will figure prominently on my year end list. Since Dana plays in one of my favorite bands, Swans, the conversation naturally meanders into working with Michael Gira, Brooklyn in the early part of the century and the subtle passage of time.
Intro: “All the Dark Things” – Mike Hill
Outro: “Youth Body Swayed” – Insect Ark

Veil of Sound InterviewsVeil of Sound - Interview #14 - Dana Schechter [Insect Ark] (Consouling Sounds Special)Today we are giving you the last video of our early Consouling Sounds-series (don't worry - season 2 is soon to start) by presenting the amazing Dana Schechter!
We have already featured an interview with Dana a few months ago, but don't think that we are giving you the same thing twice, because we are not.

The Dark Side Of Music With Derek Hanjora#308: Dana Schechter, the woman behind the band "Insect Ark"INSECT ARK, the long-running exploratory endeavor led by Dana Schechter, recently released its Future Fossils EP, an alluring collection of solo archived outtakes, excerpts, and live improv tracks born between 2016 and 2018, via Belgium’s Consouling Sounds.When Dana Schechter started INSECT ARK as her “true” solo project in 2012, she set out to build desolate and hallucinogenic galaxies of sound entirely on her own. Writing and playing solo offered an escape into the deepest realms of self-reflection, dredging and birthing a hitherto sonic beast that was, it turns out, utterly unhinged and totally liberating. Focusing on experimental, drone, noise...

Performance AnxietyDana Schechter (Insect Ark, Angels Of Light)This show features bassist & lap steel guitarist, Dana Schechter. When we recorded this, she was staying in Berlin after cutting a tour short for her band Insect Ark. She talks about how wild it was for the band and the crew. Someone may have had to sneak back into their home country, but that’s all I’m saying about that right now. Dana talks about growing up in the early 80’s Bay Area metal scene, driving around and hanging out with Cliff Burton; and how his death really made her focus on bass. She also talks about some incred...
