The Crystal Method on maniaTV's AllAccess

Scott Kirkland and Ken Jordan….known as The Crystal Method to their fans but to me, they were “Scott and Ken” after our shoot yesterday. Not only did I get to hear some of their new material (very top secret!) but I also got to see the creative process in effect, with Sam drumming live over their track. They couldn’t be more cool and laid back. My first conversation with Ken was about how his girlfriend’s cat attacked a lizard and left it’s tail on the ground by his pool – he actually showed me the tail. Awesome. My first interaction with Scott began by him telling me how he and Ken used to record all their material from a homemade converted garage studio. They only recently moved into the beautiful studio that we visited and it’s amazing to think how many platinum albums were created in a garage! I can’t talk about the music I heard too much but all I can say is that this next album is going to be KILLER.
