Show Notes

TW's Creative Director John Vogel interviews Philadelphia punk trio Northern Liberties. The band consists of brothers Justin and Marc Duerr on vocals and drums and Kevin Riley on bass and occasional vocals. The band’s most recent album, Self-Dissolving Abandoned Universe, was recorded in March 2022 with the legendary engineer and producer Steve Albini, who passed away in May of this year. The album provides the soundtrack to this episode. In this interview they dive into their background growing up in a small town and then squatting in Philadelphia, the role that art plays in their lives, and deep experiences with music and art.
