THE GANG'S ALL HERE...

Post-hardcore DILF supergroup L.S. Dunes are having a whale of a time playing away from their main bands. As Frank lero, Anthony Green and co. hit London, we got in the van with them to see first-hand how they're just a bunch of mates kicking out the jams...

WORDS: EMILY CARTER PHOTOS: PAUL HARRIES

Tucker Rule has an unusual bodily comparison to make when asked to describe an L.S. Dunes show. It is, says the drummer, "like a yawn".

We're not gonna lie: that doesn't sound especially exciting, given we're sat in front of the best new supergroup on the planet right now...

"It's very infectious, you know what I mean?" Tucker elaborates. "When I yawn, you're gonna yawn. The energy is infectious, and we're all having the best time onstage – and it shows! And people catch that vibe. When you're up there just having a good time and you don't even know why, there's no way that someone in the audience won't also be having a good time. You're gonna see a bunch of dudes up there that are literally having a ball."

Reclining next to him in a dressing room at Camden's Electric Ballroom, two of Tucker's bandmates – guitarist Frank Iero and bassist Tim Payne – burst out laughing at the initially-alarming description. But they don't even need to outwardly agree, because the joy that radiates from L.S. Dunes (completed by Anthony Green and guitarist Travis Stever) is indeed contagious. They smile, and you naturally do the same.

"Any time we're together, it's just the best," agrees Frank. "Honestly, my favourite thing to do is just hang out with these fools! People have to knock on the door and tell us to stop laughing so loud, that's really how it goes.

It's the second night of the band's first-ever UK headline tour in support of excellent 2022 debut album Past Lives, and having "been around the block" a few times before, grins Frank, this stint on the road already feels unique for these five emo and post-hardcore superstars.

"These experiences are like a one-in-a-lifetime thing," he enthuses while tucking into a pre-show sandwich. "As people, we can take that kind of stuff for granted, and that's something that we really shouldn't do. Because every second is brand new. So with these shows, it does feel different. It's really fun, and it's invigorating, and it bolsters that creative spirit. And I think it also adds to the camaraderie in the band."

And a real, proper band is exactly how the five members of L.S. Dunes are treating this.

"I think people just assumed that this was a side-project, a one-off thing," Frank shrugs of Dunes' surprise formation in lockdown. "And we never said that. It's very much a priority when we can do it. And we've got other projects that are also priorities, but I have three kids and l don't love one more than the other. Sometimes one has soccer practice, and this one has dance recital, you know? You just make time, and you love them all."

As well as their on and offstage enthusiasm, this is completely evident in L.S. Dunes' busy tour schedule. While the band could take things easy and simply ride on the coattails of their other massive groups (My Chemical Romance, Circa Survive, Thursday, Coheed And Cambria), they're out there doing signings, meeting fans and generally putting all the necessary work in to promote this music that has quickly become so special to its creators.

"We all come from other bands and we've been doing this for a long time, but we also know that we do have to treat this like a new band," Tucker stresses. "You don't want to rely on our other bands or our past at all. We treat this like a new band, and we're grateful for every experience that we have. And if people want to come and see us and take a photo, then we have to do it because this is brand-new for us, too."

"Absolutely," nods Tim. "We're lucky enough to be making music that's resonating and having an impact with people in a way that, when you see it happening, you're really taken aback by it. Seeing what music has done for us, and what it's doing for us now, and what it's doing for other people… any time you can have a way to interact with people on a deeper level – when you can really personalise it – that really cements, 'This is why we do this.'

"Even today when we were meeting a bunch of people, there's no pretence," he continues, referencing a sold-out signing session at Rough Trade Soho. "People aren't coming in with any expectation of what's cool or what I'm supposed to do. We're lucky enough to have made a record where it was really just making music for the sake of making music, and everyone that we've met so far seems to be in it for the same reason. There's just a connection there that's really amazing.

"I feel like this record deserves that work," adds Frank. "I love the record so much, and I feel very fortunate that multiple times in my career I've felt: 'This might be the best thing I've ever done. And I feel very fortunate to be in another band where people have a very strong personal connection to it. That's not something you can manufacture or prepare for. It just either happens or it doesn't, and it seems like it's happening. And that's fantastic."

Shortly before they flew out for this UK tour, L.S. Dunes were in rehearsals. The band were supposed to be practicing their 11-song setlist (which features everything from Past Lives – all the recorded material they have so far), but they couldn't resist getting started on more new stuff.

"Right before we flew out, immediately it was like, 'Let's not practice, let's write a song!'" chuckles Frank.

"We wrote a new song in a four-hour span when we should have been rehearsing," Tucker adds.

"It was like, 'Well, I guess these shows are gonna be what they are because we had to write this fuckin' song…'" continues Tim.

"It's really good, though!" winks Frank.

This is all part of the fun of L.S. Dunes. When inspiration strikes, they eagerly go along for the ride. But what if another member is busy on one of their other projects? No bother, they'll keep chipping away anyway, and no egos will be hurt. Simply: they just love working on this band in whatever form they can.

"We chase everything, which is really, really fun," grins Frank. "And I feel like that's how you find the great stuff – even if you're chasing a riff that's like, 'Eh, that's not that great of a riff...' you'll get there, because it's not going to stay the same from inception to fruition. This is really just about the craft of songwriting and musicianship, and that's what intrigues and inspires me."

"We never really stopped writing music," adds Tim. "We recorded and then we got ready for shows, but it's always just been, 'Oh hey, I've got this idea!' We're always working on things and talking about music and art. Once we can really dedicate our time and focus to that and get in the studio, we'll do it."

And while their tantalising live show is on the shorter end of things for now – given the limited material they have released – the band emphasise that fans are absolutely still getting their money's worth.

"When you sit back and think, 'This is every single finished song that we have,' then it doesn't feel like we're short-changing anyone," Tucker says. "This is literally all of the material that we have, that we can present at the moment. And it's a rollercoaster – last night I came offstage with tears in my eyes, no lie. It's a ride, whether you're in the band or not."

"You definitely feel spent after that," nods Frank. "It's an emotional ride, and some of these songs are really heavy – not so much in the music, although yes there are some heavy riffs, but I mean the subject matter. It's a lot to take in."

Even so, for Frank it's not enough.

"I wish we had more songs!" he groans. "There's things that we have in our back pockets, but as we all know, in this day and age, as soon as you play a song in front of anybody then it's released. That's just the way it is. So I get really leery about doing that when we're not finalised on a song.

"I always think about how, for better or for worse, there's old Radiohead songs that I remember me and Mikey [Way] freaking out about when they would come out – they'd play these songs and never release them, and we'd be like, 'Oh my God, I love that song.' And then they'd finally release this song after a while, and it was different. And I was kinda like, '(Sigh) I like the old one.' You know what I mean? So that feeling of not showing somebody your work until you're done with it has always stayed true with me. I don't mind a couple of things surviving out there, but I want to know that I'm done with it before I show it to people."

So more new music is unquestionably on the way, then. But what about shows? If they could do what they wanted, what would a dream L.S. Dunes gig look like?

"Oh man... jeez! I would like to fill the stage with flowers," says Frank. "That would be awesome."

"That would be better than having live scorpions!" jokes Tucker, referencing the logo on the back cover of Past Lives.

"For me, it would really just be more," Frank adds, a touch more seriously. "If schedules weren't an issue, we would just be on tour for a month, two months, whatever, just going to every city."

For now, of course, they're doing what they can. As they start to prepare themselves for their 8pm stage time (for the guitarist that means actual stretching and warming up, whereas everyone else continues to keep things relatively relaxed, as is the Dunes way), Frank, Tim and Tucker look around at each other and seemingly can't believe their luck.

"There's an energy about this band that's just different than anything else I've done," Frank says. "And it's not better or worse, it's just different. There doesn't seem to be a lot of pressure on us when we play. Somehow, some way, it's just genuinely more fun than anything else! I don't know why. My Chem is really fun too, but it's a different kind of fun, and there is a pressure when My Chem takes the stage. Any pressure with this is just internal, and wanting to play really well."

"This is a full-time gig, but we definitely call it 'Low Stress Dunes'," Tucker grins. "And we try to keep it that way. This is a place where it's safe and fun.

"We're in the honeymoon phase," he adds, "and I think that the honeymoon phase will stay."

Leverage Redemption Log: The Walk In the Woods Job

Army guy is with his doctor (shoulder/arm injury is healing). Doctor is trying to convince Armydude to go to a support group for people who have been through similar.

Come to Therapy, We Have Cookies! Army guy left, other doctor has bills and a message from a Kurt Lander (frumples note). We're really going out of our way to make the Boss Doctor seem likeable with how much he cares about other peoples mental health.

Camera follows second doctor on way out, lingers on picture of elliot on the wall. Throw a hand-egg, bomb. PAUL!!! --- Panama, 4 years ago (so during the timeskip) Elliot and Dr. Paul are having a drink. Austin Kurt Lander (why does this guy get three names? Im gonna stick to Kurt) is footing the bill for the clinic. I think the "He" that Austin wants Elliot to make peace with is his father? But im shit at context clues and also sick of getting faked out there. --- Dr Guy recognises Elliot at the funeral. "highly decorated veteran", Translation: Warcriminal.

Ok lets not double-book our acronyms please? I get there are only so many 3-letter combinations (17.576) so there is bound to be overlap but lets not open our communications up to potential future confusion. I'll refer to the Bomb type as "Thermite bomb" (TB) and the other oen as "Warcrimes Incorporated". (WI) if this becomes a running gag for the episode. getting to the stuff that even US Propagandists think is "bad stuff", corruption scandals, friendly fire in Kabul, and bodyguarding for Saudi Princes.

Something definitly happened on that bridge (and Elliot was definitly there to see it happen) --- Parker Breanna and Sophie are trying to get into Silverguard HQ, Elliot and Harry are looking at Doctor's stuff.

They bombed Elliots Picture. (which opens a secret room, he was preparing to killl Kurt) --- Target is on the move, to a place called "Orpheus Grove" (ominous name)

And Breanna just hit Sophie with the truck. Which... well it's certainly a good distraction.

Well we knew he was a warcriminal, now we know he's an asshole. --- He killed some miners, (not a shock) Orpheus grove is apparently a secret conspiracy located on a confederate generals old plantation. Its a fratclub for racists and wealthy clansmen basically.

there are no satelites images at the plantation, no cell reception and presumeably no wifi. (we're going in blind, But Kurt will be blind as well) little heart-to-heart between Elliot and Harry. (he's stealing the shuriken) --- Meanwhile in Millwater (or whatever the place is called) Breanna sees a sign about endangered frogs. (protected species, shut down the plantation by making it a wildlife preserve.) Local historian is about to give us a history lesson on the frogs and their habitats (presumably including the plantation)

Coms are live for people in the grove but cant reach Breanna until the cloak is down.

Ok when i said it was a "fratclub for racists and Klansmen" i meant it as a joke. Turns out its an actual fratclub for racists and Klansmen. Oh they're peeing in the river. But thats where the frogs live! (the piss is Fricking up the PH of the water, its why they're dying).

Little contest: Who can steal the phone! Guy is spinning his two things lie again.

Guy-with-a-harp-round-his-neck is "in charge". I find the goat-horn to be a bit cult-y. Parker has the Phone. (or at least the Walky Talky) Ok so the "un-pickable safe" is just a ban on phones. Three keys. Phone is in the vault and Parker just spotted a sniper. (Kurt is "doing an audition", he's staging an assasination so he can rescue Frick from the assasin and be welcomed into the Cult) --- Back from commercial: Doctor was the sniper HE ISNT DEAD. Thought that lying about what happened on the bridge would be a lesser evil to justify his office. "im Harry, im with him. Glad you're not dead, what do we do now" 9/10.

Huh, the frogs might have legitimate national security value. ("the secret to curing bacterial infections") A potential cure for a biowarfare threat. The woman wasnt even entirely exagerating.

Also Breanna has put the flyers on the internet. Make a niche topic, post on a few specific forums. They're taking soil and water samples. They'll find beer-urine is messing with the PH and they'll shut the grove down. I just unpaused and the local historian just said the PH levels are rising form unknown reasons? Am I actually right?

Imagine a powerfull mystic cult of senators and private armies getting shut down by a local historian and her pet frog.

Breanna wants to have a froggy hat. (its a good hat.) --- Parker snips the wire on a keychain while the drunken wearer is pissing against a tree. Sophie distracts Kurt by getting him to brag about his 2 things line some more. Harry falls from a tree, Parker elbow-drops a guy getting a massage. Harry vanishes with the ghilly, Parker steals the final key dressed as a dancer. Sophie has been spotted. --- Sophie is going for "venezualan government agent" here for the mine collapse, begins priming Kurt for Elliot. Meanwhile Harry pretends to be Elliot as a distraction. Parker suffers a minor complication in needing to turn 3 keys simultaniously. Harry steals some of Elliots lines so Elliot can call this guy out by proxy. A bad Rocky monologue stalls for enough time for Paul and Elliot to show up. --- Paul is here to confess to the lies on a wire. Harry here to unionise the guards and tell them of their legal rights. Ok good use of the bridge.

The frogs. I was right about the Piss and the frogs. I wrote that so i had an excuse to make a joke about Frick's name. And i was right.

call-back to the MIC joke (thank frick that wasnt a running gag) Final toast between Elliot and Paul

Faites le choix de l’optimisme ! (2)

“Portez votre attention sur tout ce qui est honorable… sur tout ce qui est vrai… tout ce qui est juste et pur, tout ce qu’on peut apprécier et estimer.” Ph 4. 8

Souffrez-vous d’une tendance au pessimisme ? Les difficultés que vous avez traversées, les déceptions que vous avez essuyées jusqu’à aujourd’hui vous ont-elles convaincu que rien de bon ne peut vous arriver. Vous vous êtes forgé une attitude de défiance et de pessimisme. Voulez-vous combattre cette attitude négative qui sape votre vie ? Le psychiatre Paul Meier a écrit : “Les attitudes ne sont que l’expression de pensées auxquelles vous vous êtes habitué. Or les habitudes peuvent être changées. De nouvelles habitudes peuvent être acquises. Il suffit de répéter une action pour qu’elle devienne une habitude.” Pour vaincre le pessimisme, vous devez modifier vos pensées et ensuite changer votre comportement. Concentrez votre esprit sur ce que Dieu peut faire, au lieu de tout voir sous un jour négatif. Evitez la compagnie de ceux qui sont susceptibles de vous décourager. La Parole de Dieu nous conseille de fixer notre regard sur des choses honorables, pures et vraies, dignes de notre estime et de notre appréciation. Soyez franc avec les autres et dites-leur que vous souhaitez combattre votre attitude pessimiste. Acceptez leurs conseils lorsqu’ils exposent vos pensées au grand jour et vous font toucher du doigt combien elles sont négatives. Etre optimiste veut dire placer votre espérance en Celui qui ne peut jamais vous décevoir. Dieu nous a créés pour vivre d’espoir. Mais se montrer optimiste est un choix. David a écrit : “Pourquoi te replier, mon âme, pourquoi gémir ? Espère en Dieu ! Oui, je Le célébrerai encore…” Devenir optimiste est possible à condition d’adopter la bonne attitude. Le président Harry Truman a dit un jour : “Le pessimiste crée des difficultés à partir de ses opportunités. L’optimiste crée des opportunités à partir de ses difficultés !” Oui, vous pouvez “tout, en Celui qui [vous] rend puissant” (Ph 4. 13).

Thanks, @the-best-soap-opera-ever !

Now we need to look at that clip and see if anything was said. I've still got mine and just looked at it. I'll do some screencaptures and repost. But PH's face is not warm and fuzzy. This was not a funeral. So why the death stare?

This clip doesn't show much but was taken by a guest. Hmnn.

And this clip at 13 minutes doesn't show much.

I wonder if anything was said when they arrived? I wouldn't have asked if I hadn't seen the weird pishing aside of the chairs to get in front of the Wessexes at a previous event.
