Extra on Die Spitz
The members of Die Spitz are Austin natives, with Schrobilgen and Livingston having met in preschool, befriending Halter in center college, and instantly bringing De St. Aubin into their interior circle once they shaped the band in 2022.

At their first reside exhibits, they paired originals with covers from a few of their inspirations: Black Sabbath, Pixies, Mudhoney, PJ Harvey, and Nirvana. The beguiling “Pop Punk Anthem” by some means encapsulates components all through that enormous musical swath, constructing from roiling verses to a growled refrain. “It could sound like a love music at first, however when the beat kicks in it’s the obsession that takes over”, Schrobilgen says. “The phrases ‘you’re part of me’ sound loving however it may be an insane emotion and privilege over another person’s life.”
Throughout 11 tracks, One thing to Eat incorporates multitudes and but feels of a singular piece, an expansive and expressive set unified in its camaraderie and freedom. “We rely on our freedom—freedom to do what we would like, current the concepts we would like, make the music we would like”, Livingston says. “Whether or not it’s primarily based in metallic or one thing smooth, regardless of which of us wrote the music, all of us contribute and work collectively. As an individual, I don’t have a powerful ego or voice, however inside this band every one among us is able to a lot extra.”
