Yautja plays lurching, uncomfortable music, so it is fitting that their new album is called “The Lurch.” I first met Kayhan back in approximately 2010 when I was on tour with Weekend Nachos and we stayed at Kayhan’s place in Birmingham, Alabama. At the time, Kayhan was in a band called Legion (funny enough), and since then has gone on to play in several excellent hardcore and metal projects like Coliseum, Die Young, and — of course — Yautja.

Yautja’s most recent record is fantastic, so I wanted to get Kayhan on the podcast to discuss how they write such weird but catchy songs. The conversation also took a detour into some of Kayhan’s wild experiences working at his family’s convenience store during a pandemic, so stick around for that as well.

Show Notes:
  • [01:29] The power of naming things “Legion”
  • [06:50] Being viewed as an off-the-rails weirdo due to an interest in extreme music — and the differences between music, sci-fi, and fantasy fandoms
  • [15:04] Getting into hardcore and punk, and the benefits of a mid-sized scene on creativity in Birmingham, Alabama
  • [20:28] Straddling genre lines with Yautja and being the misfit band on most concert bills
  • [29:17] The impacts of the country music industry on the Nashville underground music scene
  • [35:07] Yautja’s songwriting process — and the importance of rhythm, variations, and other subtleties in their compositions
  • [47:17] Yautja plays difficult and weird riffs, but is not really a “technical” band
  • [57:55] Yautja’s plans as the US emerges from the pandemic
  • [01:03:29] Kayhan’s comical and frustrating experiences working in his family’s convenience store during a pandemic
  • [01:14:14] How to purchase “The Lurch” and support Yautja
