Today we're spending Seven Questions In Heaven with Unicycle Loves You lead singer/guitarist Jim Carroll:
Describe your music for our readers who may not be familiar with you.
I've found that "Noise Pop" is probably the most accurate description when asked this question by somebody. If that seems to perplex them, then I just tell them we like Sonic Youth and Dinosaur Jr.
Who are your musical influences and idols?
I don't really idolize my major influences because they always end up doing or saying something stupid to fuck up my admiration for them. I guess the stuff that really influences my own music is the stuff that moves me in the same way that it did when I was a teenager. I can throw an old record on by The Swirlies or Eric's Trip and it still sounds like the best thing in the world to me.
What was the first album, cassette, or CD you bought with your own money?
The first cassette I bought with my own money was, in fact, Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet. I was eight with no older siblings, so cut me some slack.
