SLUG Mag Soundwaves Episode #304 – Scary Uncle Steve Play Episode Pause Episode Mute/Unmute Episode Rewind 10 Seconds 1x Fast Forward 30 seconds 00:00 / 21:10 Share Share Link EmbedFor this episode of Soundwaves, lead guitarist and vocalist Skunk comes in to talk about his band Scary Uncle Steve. With a missing frontman, Scary Uncle Steve’s sound didn’t feel as full, so they reached out to Wicked Bears’ Nick Fleming and, without any previous experience with the instrument, he began as their keyboardist. Previously in the band Desolate, Skunk, Nate and Dave played thrashy punk, a sound that often drove away the unfamiliar listener. Taking inspiration from the “Uncle Steve” that everyone has, the band’s name started as a joke during an old Localized interview for the band they were in at the time, Dubbed. Scary Uncle Steve also isn’t tied to playing only original music, and they’re certainly not tied to only playing punk.
