Episode 47: Survival Guide's Emily Whitehurst Talks New Album 'Deathdreams'

  • Summary

  • Emily Whitehurst first rose to prominence under the alias Agent M, lead vocalist for late 90's/early 00's punk act Tsunami Bomb.

    After leaving the group in 2005, Whitehurst would go on to form indie-electronic project Survival Guide alongside guitarist Jaycen McKissick, but she's been the sole creative force behind the project since McKissick's departure in 2015.

    Whitehurst/Survival Guide is gearing to release her new album Death Dreams (due October 19 on Double Helix Records), and it continues her unique miasma of 80’s New Wave and contemporary indie rock.

    On today's podcast, Whitehurst discusses how the creative process behind her new album got her out of her comfort zone, what it’s like working as a solo project vs a group dynamic, how mortality played a crucial role to the lyrical process, what makes a great Bond theme, and much more.

    So take a listen and stick around afterwards, where I’ll be playing Lady Neptune, a single off of the new album.
