After creating a pilot for a now-defunct media company, Olds and his co-creator/best friend Drew Kaufman successfully crowdfunded an entire series, with performers from across the metal and punk spectrum, as well as the odd outlier such as comedian Janeane Garofalo and rapper El-P, and subculture-specific comedy sketches live on stage.
At the start of 2020, the duo started to remotely produce web videos in which all-star guests – including gothic singer-songwriter Chelsea Wolfe and Gina Gleeson of spirited doom-metallers Baroness – collaborate on covers of metal classics and reimagine pop tracks. They started it, Olds says, “so we could finally play with our musician friends that hadn’t been able to make it to the live show”.
