Bobble Tiki isn't above sloppy seconds. He never has been.

While you take a moment to digest all the implications of that statement (and Bobble Tiki means ALL the implications, even the really icky ones from Bobble Tiki's frat days), Bobble Tiki would like to clear his throat, shift uncomfortably in his office chair, awkwardly shrug his shoulders, and then point out that what he means - in this instance - relates to the band Death By Steamship, who will play the New Frontier in Tacoma next Tuesday.

You see, Bobble Tiki isn't the first Volcano scribe to spill ink over Death By Steamship. Far from it. In fact, a wet-behind-the-ears Rev. Adam McKinney first introduced the band way back in late 2009, saying the new group was, "bursting with messy exuberance." Death By Steamship had formed in June of that year.

Fast forward to the present, and Death By Steamship preparing for the "official" release of its debut full length. Some things have changed. Some have stayed the same.

Frontman Jason Simplot was kind enough to sit down with Bobble Tiki this week for three question. Read the interview here.
