Title: Destination Time Today

Label: Level Plane

Producer: Graf Orlock

Release: Jan/Feb

Perfect!” Jason Smith (a pseudonym, BTW) exclaims after asking about our February issue’s street date. “The magazine and the album will come out at pretty much exactly the same time.” Speaking by phone from his home in Studio City, CA, Graf Orlock’s guitarist doesn’t even sound like he’s gloating, even though doing so wouldn’t be out of line. Destination Time Today, the burgeoning cinematic grindcore movement’s standard-bearers’ third album and the final part of a trilogy that began with 2006’s Destination Time Yesterday and continued through 2007’s Destination Time Tomorrow has been in the can since mid-summer. The band’s timing couldn’t be more impeccable if they’d worked everything out with us in advance.

“Our first album dealt with the past,” he says, “our second with the future. In both cases we drew heavily from action-adventure movies, as we do on Destination Time Tomorrow. This one dwells more in the present, though it’s also a tribute to the classics, and to Ronald Reagan’s failed policies and the Cold War in general—which is kind of a thread running through everything we do. It’s also kind of a salute to Mark Wahlberg, who’s really been capturing our imaginations lately, especially for, like, Shooter.”
