  • WATCH PT 2: • YOB "Hometown" Pt 2: M...
    YOB's Mike Scheidt has lived his whole life in Oregon, and nearly lost it there, too. From growing up as a bullied outsider to finding his place as a respected doom-metal innovator - as heard on the band's epic new album Our Raw Heart - the experiences have shaped him into the man he is today: a rebel with open arms. We joined him at home, visited with his mom and filmed YOB playing the local venue where Scheidt first started to see shows at age 16, to understand how the towns of Eugene and Springfield have shaped him as a man and musician. Watch episode one of our three-part documentary.

    Mike sold me my first Gibson bass when I 13 years old. I’ll never forget it. He made it seem like it had already been sold, and I was so bummed about it because I had my eye on that particular bass for a really long time... So I went to go look at the other options on the wall, and Mike all of a sudden sneaks up behind me holding a case that said “Gibson” on the side of it. I cried. Such a cool moment.

    As a teacher going into my 19th year it’s hard hearing these stories about kids not feeling accepted because they look different. I’d like to think in general we’ve made some progress at least in certain places. That being said I have a pentagram tattooed on the back of my hand and I’ll regularly wear YOB or Neurosis shirts to work while teaching all AP classes.

    One of the best metal interviews I've seen. Mike seems like a down-to-earth guy whose personality has been shaped by authentic struggle. As someone who didn't have a mother or father who supported his style of learning or interests, and consequently has spent life unsure of himself and searching for an identity, it's heartening to see what can happen with the undying support of a good mother. Thanks for your music and inspiration.

    Hey Mike, Funny how similar your story is to me. I was down here in medford, and music was the only way i got through it. Fortunately, ashland had a pretty good scene, and there were lots of good places to play. We opened for Nomeansno in an orchard cold storage unit and saw Green river play in a basement over in ashland in 87. It was a moment that changed me forever. Keep on keeping on. Good health to you.

I got into them when Unreal came out. Saw then 3 times at Roadburn here in Holland. So good. Almost cried. Looking forward to pt 2.

    Fucking love YOB,great video. I always thought Mike would be a cool dude to just hang out with and shoot the shit with for awhile. I’ll also add that he’s entirely right about how the scene is today. Growing up in the late eighties and early nineties you could have your ass kicked just for having long hair or wearing a metal band shirt. It’s sad that a lot of folks in the scene today hate on other metalheads and bands too. It’s a much different time now than it was then that’s for sure.

      I caught YOB and Bell Witch in Little Rock in June. It was supposed to be in a tiny bar but moved to a bigger club. It would have been cooler to see them both in a tiny box where you can feel every hit of the drums, but they were both great.
