Nick DiSalvo of Elder on Through Zero, 20 Years of Stoner Rock & Life in Germany | Ep. 34

Nick DiSalvo — vocalist, guitarist, and founding member of Elder — returns to The Sonic Road Podcast for a full conversation ahead of the band's seventh studio album Through Zero, out May 29th via Blues Funeral Recordings in North America and Stickman Records in Europe.

Topics covered: twenty years of Elder and what it actually feels like from the inside, life in Germany while working for a European record label and playing in two active bands, the heavy music renaissance of 2026, All Them Witches, playing smaller venues by choice, scaling back activity to avoid burnout, being a maximalist and learning to pull back, barely finding time to play guitar, why COVID proved stopping isn't an option, creating from passion vs. making a product, the most important advice for young bands, medieval imagery and modern technocracy, fans and musicians building a community ecosystem within a broken system, the making of Through Zero at Big Snuff Studio with engineer Richard Behrens, Mellotron and the sonic palette of the new record, Ron Nevison and Led Zeppelin, the three-label global distribution setup with Blues Funeral, Stickman Records and Bird's Robe, whether Elder will ever play Through Zero in its entirety live, The Black Crowes and Clutch playing full albums, ticket prices, and what's coming next on tour.
