To Kill A Petty Bourgeoisie: Destroy Yourself

During the Brainwaves festival in 2008, Mark McGee, one half of Minneapolis' To Kill A Petty Bourgeoisie, agreed to do an interview with me. Their performance that year consisted entirely of new music, so I waited patiently to hear their next album before sending any questions to Mark.

In the process we managed to touch on topics like hip hop, Akira Kurosawa, Herman Hesse, and how sexy a little grit can be.
