Here’s the full interview Amazing Heroes did with Steve Purcell, creator of Sam and Max. This is from April 1990, three years after some successful issues and two years before Bad Day on the Moon, which Purcell mentions here on “hoping to finish.” Featured here are Steve Purcell's experiences revolving his authorship of a Gumby and Pokey story, a cancelled Batman comic, meeting Sergio Aragones at then named CCAC, and, most importantly, the convoluted origins of fizzball.

Wild Horses | JUICE April 2016

'British wit' has been a much-desired cultural commodity for a long time — Arctic Monkeys' frontman, Alex Turner, and former-Rascals-leader-turned-solo-star Miles Kane, have that in spades. Their charm converged when they revealed themselves to the world as The Last Shadow Puppets in 2008 via their debut full-length, The Age Of Understatement. After a period of dormancy, they're ready to bring the stomp again on their latest, Everything You've Come To Expect. That it's inspired by soul singer Isaac Hayes is only part of the reason to get excited. Here, in an exclusive with us, Turner and Kane furnish details, and yes, British wit.

Eight years is a long time between albums. Has a lot changed in your lives since your first?

Alex: A lot about our lives stayed the same during that time, but certain things really changed. It's not like there's one theme running through it or that it's about one thing. But what springs to mind when I first think about the record is the recording of it, which was one of the most pleasant experiences l've ever had. We were by the ocean and a lot of friends were there all the time. So as far as the feeling that surrounds it — be it positive or negative — it's certainly the former.

Can we then expect a few love songs from Everything You've Come To Expect?

A: Not exclusively. Though, there are moments in the record that are certainly in the sphere of the love song. But there are some other moments on there that are kind of opposed to that as well. The first time we did a Shadow Puppets record was perhaps the first time we explored the abstract lyrically and thought about words more as just another component, along with the melody and the chords, and how that contributes to the overall feeling rather than always trying to tell a story.

Miles, was there something that happened during the recording process that you remember fondly?

Miles: I was singing “Gangster's Paradise” by Coolio. And then I sang: “As I walk through the chalet of the shadow of death”. And then we put it in the song “Everything You've Come To Expect”. I don't know where we were, but that was spitting something, yeah.

The record also features string arrangements by Owen Pallett. What was it like working with him?

M: He was with us the whole time — recording and writing his string parts. He definitely gets in a zone and then he'd come back and you'd know, if he wasn't happy about it, you could see. He is a true artiste.

A: He can be very serious at times, but we welcome what he's doing. But Miles is definitely like….

M: I've seen him melt. I made him melt. He's fun, you know.

Besides Owen's input, another interesting change-up in your sound is your newfound appreciation for Isaac Hayes.

M: There probably are lots of different artistes or songs. There was the Isaac Hayes thing; there was a bit of Style Council; there was a bit of Dr. Hook — all those songs that have a certain mood. They may not sound like this record, but there's a certain feeling you get from the tunes. We were definitely very concentrated on the Scott Walker thing on the first one.

As much-scrutinised musicians yourselves, are you ever apprehensive about how you channel an influence?

A: We are still finding new things and getting excited about them. It's not as direct. The reference material on the first Puppets record was really the focus. Whereas that's shifted slightly now. We don't have the innocence we had then, I suppose. And back then, it seemed crazy to us to try and make a record that sounded like Scott Walker, whereas now it's not as mad. But when you talk about some records sometimes, I think you'd have a hard time trying to draw a parallel between this and that. Well, or maybe not.

Do yourself a favour and take a look at this really cute interview

[nanimonasho]

Look closely at the edge of this image.

This is a Japanese magazine, and actually, this didn't even exist yet in the early 1950s lol.

And I did my best to identify it!

According to my research, this was probably released on May 24, 1979.

(I found this image on the internet, so I don't own it)

It's interesting to notice the props story!
