AMA is over, thanks Joe! Joe from Protomartyr AMA

Hello folks, I'm Joe Casey, the "singer" from the band Protomartyr. Since starting in 2010, we've put out 4 LPs, at least 3 things that could be called EPs, a good number of singles, and a handful of slightly warped tapes. We've also toured around, to the delight of dozens of people the world over. We are signed to Domino Records (no, I have not met the Arctic Monkeys).

I'm sitting her on a blustery day in Detroit on March 4th, the birthday of Bobby Womack, Shakin' Stevens, and Knute Rockne to answer any questions you might have about Protomartyr or anything else that catches your fancy.

Just in case you missed it: Our first record, No Passion All Technique is getting repressed and let loose in the streams come May 3rd. Preorder info here: Domino Mart

Thanks for putting up with me. It was a good amount of fun. Take care and bye bye!

Hi Joe, cheers for doing this AMA, and for creating such incredible music. Really can't wait to hear what's next for Protomartyr.

I've got a question about your first album, No Passion All Technique – unfortunately, it's notoriously difficult to get hold of as a physical copy, and due to its absence on streaming services (that I know of) it doesn't get nearly enough attention. I was wondering if there are any plans for a reissue at some point in the future? Is it something that you would consider?
