John from Hempire discussed the band's new album "The Weight," which features in-your-face rock and roll. The band formed in 2016 in Boone, North Carolina, with John transitioning from guitar to drums. They face challenges in retaining drummers and have been promoting their album since its release. John emphasized the importance of owning their music and merchandise. Upcoming shows are planned for June and summer, with a focus on booking more dates. The band aims to expand their reach and is considering vinyl production. They admire bands like Mastodon and Melvins for their DIY approach and long-term success.
