Entrevista con Leah Shapiro de Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club: what happened to our rock and roll?
In an industry where the rising pressure of commercialisation looms large, sticking to your guns can often be tricky and bands can often surrender their roots in pursuit of mainstream popularity. But there’s no denying that Black Rebel Motorcycle Club are still carrying the flame for authentic rockers around the world. Formed 20 years ago by high school friends Peter Hayes and Robert Levon Been, BRMC have shown little sign of stopping: they continue to tour relentlessly and release flawless albums, all the while keeping the spirit of rock’n’roll truly alive.
With their upcoming eighth studio album out in early 2018, I was patched through to Leah Shapiro’s Berlin hotel room to talk about the new record, Wrong Creatures, and picking her drumsticks back up after undergoing brain surgery.

Leah Shapiro’s bombastic energy and spacious sense of time helped launch Black Rebel Motorcycle Club to new creative galaxies, but her early years with the band were plagued with misfortune. She tells Joe about growing up with free spirited parents in Denmark; studying music business; losing her friend and mentor, Michael Been of The Call; and recovering from a debilitating brain condition.
#29. XS Noize Music Podcast Interview: Peter Hayes of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Welcome to episode #29 of the XS Noize Music Podcast. On This weeks show Cortney Armitage is joined by Peter Hayes from Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.
“Peter Hayes came into the dressing room at Terminal 5. There we were at back stage before “The last rock ‘n’ roll show before the end of the world”. It was election night and while the elephant in the room was large, we managed to keep the interview about the music. Covering topics in his song writing to the epic struggle between good and evil, to the emotions felt playing songs, Peter Hayes is honest and heartfelt as they wound down their latest – and much overdue tour”.

AT THE MERCY OF WHAT’S TO COME: AN INTERVIEW WITH BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club is currently on a co-headlining with Death from Above 1979 on what vocalist and bass player Robert Levon Been calls the band’s first proper tour in awhile. Even though it has been three years since BRMC released a studio album, they’re ready to put on a good show showcasing their entire catalog, including a few new songs off of their highly anticipated follow up to 2013’s Specter at the Feast.

Interview: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club’s Leah Shapiro on getting healthy and keeping the beat
- NOVEMBER 11, 2016 BY CANDACE MCDUFFIE
The music that Black Rebel Motorcycle Club have been churning out since 2001 debut B.R.M.C. is as multifaceted as it is timeless. Songs often teeter on the brink of provocative ambiguity as the California natives masterfully layer on both melodic and rhythmic bait. Drummer Leah Shapiro is a steadfast component of the band’s creative process; the Denmark-raised musician joined Black Rebel Motorcycle Club in 2008, after former drummer Nick Jago left to pursue solo endeavors.

By: Lindsey Borders Nov 5, 2016 3 hours ago
For nearly two decades Black Rebel Motorcycle Club has belted out solid rock hits, and have performed several sold-out venues on their tours. Their fall tour includes a Nov. 5 (7p.m.) performance at The Masquerade with opening band, Death from Above 1979. The band has released seven studio albums, along with several EP’s and live albums. Their tour is currently supporting their most recent album, Specter at the Feast, including selections from their previous albums. We chatted with Leah about their upcoming album, tour, and love of playing the drums:

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28, 2016 AT 4 A.M.
Many fans and critics alike felt Black Rebel Motorcycle Club had gone soft, given the tone and sound of their most recent album, 2013’s Specter at the Feast. Album opener “Fire Walker” meanders in with Pink Floyd “Echoes”-like wanderings, and even with the fuzzed-out guitars, sullen harmonies and dark basslines, rarely rises above a whisper. Well, what else to think?

MUSIC Wednesday, October 26 1:24pm
Rock ‘n’ roll band Black Rebel Motorcycle Club sounds like something you would listen to if you were a member of a black rebel motorcycle club. The psychedelic gospel vocals backed by resonating bass and catchy guitar riffs hypnotizes listeners, motivating them to replace their brick-size, pineapple-flavor-filled vape pens for a pack of old-fashioned Marlboros, put on a leather jacket and ride off on a Triumph Thunderbird under the moonlight. Braaaaaaaapp!
Q&A: Robert Been Of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

BY JAMES M. DAVIS We had a chance to talk with Black Rebel Motorcycle Club bassist/vocalist Robert Been ahead of BRMC’s upcoming show Death From Above 1979 at the Fillmore on Nov. 7. BRMC was formed in the late 90’s when guitarist Peter Hayes, fresh off being fired from Brian Jonestown Massacre (as documented in Dig!) joined forces with Robert Been [pictured, above right], son of The Call frontman Michael Been. They unleashed a formidable aural assault with their first album B.R.M.C., following muscular/mystical 70’s acts like Zeppelin, while also drawing surreptitiously from the well of more contemporary groups like Oasis or The Verve. Since then they’ve been waving the banner of Rock and Roll as the less well-tempered acts from that time have fallen into the dust. Recently they have been featured in T. Bone Burnett’s True Detective soundtrack alongside stately Americana songwriters like Bob Dylan and Townes Van Zandt. Although BRMC’s last few albums have not been as well received as their first few, as a live act they still have a lot of gas in the tank. Hail, hail rock n’ roll.

Especial para PuertoRicoIndie.com
Peter Hayes prolonga cada pausa antes de ofrecer una respuesta. Su tono de voz es tenue y lánguido, como si contemplara el pasar del tiempo mientras hablamos. Hayes es una de las voces y mentes creativas detrás de la banda americana Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (BRMC), y más importante aún para nosotros hoy –su guitarrista. Tras un largo respiro, nos ofrece otra respuesta algo vaga, y a la vez completamente sincera: “Es una conversación larga para tratar de explicar por teléfono. Tendríamos que tenerla con un trago…”
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Rolls In With “Simple But Megalomaniac” Goals
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 2016 AT 7:18 A.M.
BY BRETT CALLWOOD
It’s strange to think that it’s been fifteen years since San Francisco’s Black Rebel Motorcycle Club released its B.R.M.C. debut album. Back then, rock and roll was wallowing in a garage-rock revival led by Detroit bands like the White Stripes, Scandinavians like the Hellacopters, and Australasians like the Datsuns. The downside of this movement is that a whole lot of bands got unnecessarily lumped in, the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club among them.
Interview: Leah Shapiro of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club + Live in Chicago
By: Christopher David / Photo: James Currie
Interview with Leah Shapiro (Black Rebel Motorcycle Club) -Interview conducted August 2016
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club will be live in Chicago at the House of Blues Thursday, October 13, 2016.
In the three years since their last studio album, 2013’s Specter at the Feast, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club has celebrated their share of highs and lows. In 2014, drummer Leah Shapiro successfully underwent brain surgery for a rare and frightening neurological condition, which saw the band’s fan community come together, along with musician’s charity organization Sweet Relief to help Shapiro deal with the financial burden of such an experience. Last year, the band released a live package documenting their Paris stop on that tour that included a documentary. We talked to Leah as the band readies for a fall tour with Death From Above 1979.

Recibimos a Robert Heem y Peter Hayes, integrantes de Black Rebel Motorcycle Club que en estos días están en España presentando su álbum ‘Spectre at the feast’. Un disco muy influido por la muerte de Michael Heem, antiguo íder de The Call, padre de Robert y mentor de la banda. Una circunstancia que ha añadido si cabe más carga emocional al rock oscuro y poderoso de BRMC. Este fue el principal contenido de un programa en el que también recordamos a Ian Curtis (Joy Division) en el día en que habría cumplido 58 años y escuchamos canciones de grupos y artistas como Talk Talk, St. Vincent, Jack White, Caribou, Klaxons o Berri Txarrak, entre muchos otros.

BLACK REBELS RIDE INTO TOWN
Wednesday 13th November / posted by Sarah Tout
It’s been a long hard road for US West-Coast rock outfit Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. They emerged out of the ashes of tragedy after the death of their producer Michael Been, returning with one of their strongest albums to date; Specter at the Feast. Yet more havoc reigned as the Harvest festival that the band were booked to play at was cancelled, but they have stuck to their guns and are in town to give us a dose of their heady fuzzed-out rock’n’roll. Sarah Tout spoke with Pete and Rob from the band, and they even brought their guitars along to play a couple of tracks live in the studio.
