Ep. #1109: Converge

Jacob Bannon from Converge is here to discuss the band’s 2026 albums released to date, Love Is Not Enough and Hum of Hurt, the penchant for DIY workers to multi-task and take on various kinds of projects every day, the increasing demand for artists to execute all manner of album release-related and promotional tasks, his thoughts on the impact of artificial intelligence on visual art and design as a practice, releasing two Converge albums in the same calendar year but suggesting the second isn’t a sequel, how the band determined which songs belonged on which of the two new albums, whether the song sequences are connected by lyrical themes, a mysterious hum that has impacted people around the world, creating compassionate work, how his dynamic singing approach impacts the emotional tenor and tone of a song and citing bands who’ve inspired him as a vocalist, whether or not Converge will release a third album in 2026, excitement about curating this December’s Saddest Day festival, upcoming Converge tour dates, other future plans, and much more.
