If you missed the Gavin Rossdale Interview with MJ and Patrick on Las Vegas’s 107.9 The Alternative it is now up on their website!
Helmet’s Page Hamilton comments on his work with Institute back in 2005. It’s the first I’ve heard him really remark on the whole situation.
Jim (CWGmagazine): You worked with Gavin Rossdale on the Institute record. I dug it! It sounded like Helmet with Gavin singing. How did you get into producing?
Page: Gavin wrote some Helmet-like riffs, actually, Chris Traynor and Gavin wrote together. Chris has a Helmet influence from being a teenager when Helmet started. I didn’t push [the Institute record] into that direction. Gavin and Chris came to me with those songs. Gavin’s “ Come On Over” was like a lot like “ I Know” off of Betty. I told Gavin that! I said, “Umm… Yeah… Can we not start the song with the same riff as ‘I Know?’”
Gavin kind of laughed and said (Page doing a very bad faux English accent), ‘It was a homage to you, Page,’ and I said, “That’s cool.” It was a great experience. I didn’t want to produce. With rock bands, not including Gavin, sometimes their motives aren’t pure. They want to be stars, and that’s not interesting. Being a musician is. Being a star is boring- it’s the same shit.
Jimmy Iovine had called me and asked me to come in and do a Helmet record and produce other bands. I’m into doing an album, but I don’t want to produce rock idiots. He said that Interscope had 300 artists and that he would find someone for me to work with. A week later, he called me and said that Gavin Rossdale was interested in working with me. Turns out Gavin is a huge Jesus Lizard fan. We like a lot of the same bands, and we completely hit it off. Jimmy said at the end, “I told you that you’re a great producer.” I worked with other bands that are not well known- friends. I realize that producing can be a great process.

“I spoke to Dave. I was surprised because I thought he’d do it. He thought about it for the weekend and then said he couldn’t. He didn’t want to commit and then back out — he didn’t know how long he could tour.”
