I'm the kind of person I think that when I see suffering, I want to know why, and I want to know if there are things that can be done to alleviate it.

I think it's made me realize that music was always just a thing that I did, but it doesn't have to be the kind of be-all-end-all. be all and all.

This is Joe Wong. Welcome to the Trappset, where each week we explore the lives of drummers.

I want to play something for you.

... You're hearing Cut Self Not by Farrakhet featuring my guest Chad Multer on drums.

Formed in Washington, D.C. in 1997, Farrakit filtered prague musical sophistication through the prism of punk rock.

Originally a bassist, Moulter became proficient on drums in a matter of months,

his DIY approach leading to a uniquely melodic style.

After Farrakhet broke up, Chad played bass for medications, another band featuring Farraket bandmate

Devon Ocampo on guitar. Chad currently resides in Boulder, Colorado, where he works as a director

of a homeless shelter and plays drums with the band Grass.

And now my conversation with Chad Malter. Come, so not just forget about what's been said I would fail.

So what if I walked away?

The backseat of my father's Like 60s Chevy

Crying because he was going to take me to get my hair cut

I remember the back seat was all

Dug out

It was like the upholstery was coming out of it. The car was in poor shape.

So I don't know. I must have been like four or five. I don't know why that memory sticks with me.

Do you still hate haircuts? You can tell. I kind of do still hate haircuts? You can tell.

I kind of do still hate

haircuts. The only person I'll let give me a haircut is Liz
