Entertainment, Death
In a way, we can thank an ‘80s hair metal biopic for partially inspiring Spirit Of The Beehive’s Entertainment, Death, the Philly experimental collage-rock band’s fourth and best album. Over Zoom, Spirit’s Zack Schwartz recalls a scene in The Dirt where Motley Crue’s manager gets a tattoo of the phrase “Entertainment or Death.” “I just thought it was a cool title,” Schwartz says, shrugging across a laggy Zoom call from his apartment in Philly — Corey Wichlin, a multi-hyphenate and recent addition to Spirit, sits next to Schwartz, with founding member and bassist Rivka Ravede joining the conversation remotely from her job at a vinyl plant.
