Wicca is definitely a Legend. GBC just needs to do more as a group.

[@yevoidstar]

Exactly. I think peep brought them somewhat more together backstage but they still don't really do collab music which is a huge bummer.

[@bnwberto8888]

I would love to see more togetherness in the future

[@arminiuscherusci4410]

Yea wicca has lowkey gai vibes

[@screamingdaisies]

I can appreciate Adams empathy for what Peep was going thru & dealing with. You can tell he really cared about him as a person not a commodity. It had to be hard to watch and not be able to do anything about it. I wish he could say exactly what he wanted to say but it’s understandable why he is cautious. Look forward to new Wicca Phase music & great interview Rodger.

[@nokiamobileusofficial]

Doves Cry Springs Eternal is my favorite Wicca Phase release.. I can’t describe how that album made me feel so hearing that part 2 is almost done is so great

[@goodleshoes]

I love doves and wicca so much!!!!

[@THESLOWDEATHHOOKS]

LEGENDARY! Wicca is doing something really awesome with his music, and I love Tigers Jaw.

Wow dude not only do you spend time during the interview but after you even make timestamps for conversation topics. I'm definitely subscribing.

wicca phase is a legend. thank you for this!

[@walterrising7154]

Suffer on was his best project yet.
He really put his heart and soul into that album.

[@1021Marcy]

Hell yea! I love how cohesive it is. Can play it all the way through.

[@illcommunicvtion]

That was more than just his best work yet. It was the best album of the fucking year. GBC2X21

Wicca is so dope man I hope get to go to his show one day

that and doves cry springs eterrnal

[@tsoppo]

Well since I've been seeing him everywhere lately I can safely say at this point that he is the one I can't avoid

[@Frozenyyy]

Watched the entire thing and still want more i hope Adam does more interviews

[@aganica]

also very interesting interview on Not Most People from December 2018

[@TheSkilledSnowman]

Wicca Phase looks like Tony Hawk.

[@killerhippieodoom9599]

he looks like the guy from tigers jaw

[@LavenderOrc]

outofdresscode damn that’s crazy

[@12gauge_shawtyy]

I love that he's a totally normal dude with a totally chill childhood and everything, but he makes fucking incredible music. It really just shows that you don't need a fucked up past and to be a crazy-ass unique person to make good shit. I'm not saying wicca isn't special, he's a legend. But he's a legend because of what he has done, not because what happened to him.

[@chocolateshake8506]

24:55 finally he drinks water

[@WYATTCORPSE]

never watched masked gorilla, in fact for whatever reason, actively avoided masked gorillas until i watched the sematary interview and now im going back through, so fucking good

[@jakegetscake4672]

Wicca is so humble Awesome podcast always loved tigers jaw and still do, when he left I was all sad but Wicca is the man and so are you roger. Plus Wiccas music is awesome. Most people don’t realize most these underground artist need 9-5s to support themselves

[@jerryrose9472]

Some people might cringe at this, but I really wish Ghoste and Wicca would do another song together. They've both changed and developed so much since the last time they collaborated.

[@ItsLandoRoadto100subs]

i know theyre still friends they just had a pic on insta not too long ago

[@aubreeforeman2425]

I really hope they do another collab

[@ethangriffin1371]

I agree bro. Both are fr musicians

[@hqxacuzb]

damn, hearing wicca mention gold slugz made me realize how long it's really been. can barely find that dudes remixes of old shit anymore, i remember back in 2012 one of the first bones' songs i heard was remixed by goldslugz, and his chopped up remix of ostermontag by dylan ross. so much love for wicca, he's definitely a legend just for his beautiful personality alone. glad he's doing well. and masked gorilla you're really cementing yourself as a legend with these amazing interviews. so refreshing & good to see something so organic and good coming out of this scene considering , i personally feel, it's been 'clogged up' with fake shit ever since certain stars blowin up in popularity. not trying to sound like a gatekeeper; it's just how it goes.
maskegorilla's website always been the best for me personally to find really good, genuine, organic content and beautiful photography too, covering this scene, glad it's now come to youtube

The fact that there's an entire generation of people who only know Adam for Wicca Phase but my old emo self still remembers him as the guy from Tiger's Jaw.

[@THESLOWDEATHHOOKS]

Yup, same. I started listening to Tiger's Jaw quite a few years before the soundcloud wave happened. It's still hard to believe that Adam is 30 fking years old now lol, time flies...

Yeah I was listening to the pizza self titled when I was in high school, I was aware of wicca around charmer, idk when he started it, but I thought he was trolling honestly and Now when I come to it at the age of 24, been out of college and shit for a couple years even, I am enjoying it a lot more.
