00:00:00Watch The Vampire Lestat after dark on AMC Plus or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:00:30The Vampire of Akasha are in me.
00:00:31Sorry, what the fuck is Akasha?
00:00:33Is there an evil older than you?
00:00:35Your maker, Marius.
00:00:37My maker is dead. I've told you that already.
00:00:39Was Dubai bullshit?
00:00:41Me breaking you down.
00:00:42You knew everything the whole time.
00:00:44Loving Louis doesn't shut it off.
00:00:46It wasn't my love for Louis.
00:00:48Best, best.
00:00:49But it was love.
00:00:51You've been reaching them.
00:00:53Yes.
00:00:53They are lost and tired of enduring.
00:00:57Your music speaks to them.
00:00:59When's he going to make an album?
00:01:02When we are ready!
00:01:05You are listening to The Failures, album 41, side B.
00:01:20My first coffin had the likeness of my maker carved into its lid.
00:01:25Indecipherable Latin etched around the rim.
00:01:27And as I was an orphan vampire, my sleep within troubled.
00:01:32Again.
00:01:34I spent half of two decades in the silken embrace of a chestnut casket purchased for my French Quarter townhome.
00:01:41Before it was hurled off a balcony during one of Mr. Dulac's redirected moves.
00:01:48Again?
00:01:49What exactly are we going for here on take 17?
00:01:54We are going for...
00:01:56Again.
00:01:58Okay.
00:01:59I have slumbered in a variety of sarcophagi over the centuries, but if I had to choose a favorite, it
00:02:05would be the 7,000 square foot model I endured in the fall of 2025, while I recorded my posthumously
00:02:13produced album that Pitchfork would trash and for which the world shouts in feeble attempts to explain away clearly attributable
00:02:20devastation.
00:02:23But I, Amel, digress.
00:02:26Again.
00:02:28Take 28.
00:02:43Again.
00:02:45Take 28.
00:02:47Take 28.
00:02:47An amnesia fund was created, and annual payments in perpetuity were issued to Jarda Klapik, a coroner, an obituary writer
00:02:56for the Czech Broadsheet Pravo, Di, Daniel, Farid, and two dozen other collaborators, including Christine Clare, who bought a retirement
00:03:04villa and wallpapered her basement sex dungeon with billable hour invoices.
00:03:15Again.
00:03:17Take 61.
00:03:19Four!
00:03:19I would leave this coffin only once in four months.
00:03:23I would butcher the band for bloom and marbling, fleece the muses of their animus, and stop at nothing until
00:03:30an album worthy of the long, lurid life of Les Daudeliencourt burned into elegiac audio formats.
00:03:37And when that was achieved, I would perform it once live in that now infamous concert.
00:03:42And, well, I will come to that later.
00:03:47But like Elvis or Andy Kaufman, rumors swirled of my survival, so Sophia Gabriela de Leoncourt de Vecchia took over
00:03:55for Christine and whittled down my entourage to the essentials, which was her and the vampire Sam Barclay, whom she
00:04:02hired as a producer for three reasons.
00:04:04One, he had faked his death once before so he could be trusted to maintain the right.
00:04:09Two, he knew the board well enough from his own recordings.
00:04:12Big Bad Wolf, vocals, take one.
00:04:15And three, she knew I hated him for his part in Paris.
00:04:19And that would keep me lively.
00:04:20Whoo!
00:04:24I'm the Big Bad Wolf!
00:04:30Nice.
00:04:31I must take one.
00:04:33Fabulous.
00:04:34Moving on.
00:04:36So, straighten your tie, inflate your lips, be it facial or labial.
00:04:40We are going to trace my self-taught musicianship back to its weird and haunting origin.
00:04:45That's right.
00:04:47I'm finally going to talk about the Queen.
00:04:58I'm a little killer.
00:05:00I'm a lonely one.
00:05:02I'm a sugar gun up your spine, telling you to run.
00:05:06I'm a little killer.
00:05:08I'm a lost lover.
00:05:10I'm a lost lover.
00:05:11I'm a past and the future, the lies of the sutures, the cool and dumb.
00:05:14Where the rock and roll is.
00:05:16Where the good take.
00:05:18Where the heart of me love and the face of them love.
00:05:21Where the stupid rhyme.
00:05:24Bang bang.
00:05:25Bang bang.
00:05:26Bang bang.
00:05:28Bang bang.
00:05:28Bang bang.
00:05:51Again...
00:05:52Again.
00:06:17A drum sounds like a drum.
00:06:19That's because it's a drum?
00:06:22Hmm.
00:06:25The drums can't sound like a drum.
00:06:27Okay.
00:06:29What do you want it to sound like then?
00:06:33It has to sound like death approaching.
00:06:36Oh, my God.
00:06:37Like life emerging.
00:06:39Like, yeah, cool. Like life and death.
00:06:41Death, then life.
00:06:42Okay.
00:06:43A mewing babe extracted from a mother's womb.
00:06:45Okay.
00:06:46I, uh...
00:06:48I don't play metaphorical drums.
00:06:51Try.
00:06:51I can do faster or harder or shuffle, fill, flam, buzz roll.
00:06:56Like a drum is a drum. A stick is a stick.
00:06:58I don't know what to tell you.
00:07:00It's because she's not a vampire.
00:07:02It's because her deepest wound is a man walking away mid-ceremony.
00:07:07Wow, cool. Thank you.
00:07:10Yoko Mirren.
00:07:13Guests at my death bed.
00:07:16We are making an album about my life, which has been a three century train wreck.
00:07:22Your drums are my heart.
00:07:25Ow.
00:07:26Your guitar is my hunger.
00:07:29Your bass, the night terrors that follow me to coffin.
00:07:35What's my guitar?
00:07:37Yes, please interrupt my flow, Larry.
00:07:40Your guitar is my frailty.
00:07:45Keep coloring inside the lines as you play and I'll nod a tempo mark to your life jacket.
00:07:51Blair, Blair, come on, it's...
00:07:54We are here to pull the plug.
00:07:58Hmm?
00:07:58Have some reverence.
00:08:01Kill me savagely.
00:08:04Yup, sure.
00:08:06Sam, let's jump to something else. TC's not ready.
00:08:08I'm fine, I...
00:08:09Can I hear when I call out your name? Vocal 12.
00:08:11Copy that.
00:08:18What?
00:08:25Blue is the sea.
00:08:27Dictures of the iron and bloodhead
00:08:31Blue is the sea.
00:08:36You've got to see fish-table from the wilds around the world.
00:08:44Popper's grey.
00:08:46What was his mother?
00:08:48Loves.
00:08:51Loves her.
00:08:54He wanted to take care of her, as you say.
00:08:57No, he was there.
00:08:59She was not.
00:09:02Where am I?
00:09:03Thank you for pulling me from the earth.
00:09:07Thank you for saving me from starvation.
00:09:10Thank you for the warm blood shared.
00:09:11Yes, you're welcome.
00:09:13She told me where you were, and there you were, and there I was.
00:09:15I brought you back, and...
00:09:18Here we are.
00:09:22Who are you?
00:09:24I am Marios de Romanos.
00:09:27I am the keeper.
00:09:29Was the keeper.
00:09:30Now you are the keeper.
00:09:33Marios.
00:09:34Oh, an echo.
00:09:37Armand said that you were destroyed.
00:09:40He was wrong.
00:09:42Rotten boy.
00:09:46She likes music.
00:09:50Come.
00:09:59Don't you?
00:10:02They are the mother and father to all of us.
00:10:04And they must be kept.
00:10:07This one?
00:10:10Akasha.
00:10:12This stone?
00:10:14It's alive.
00:10:15Very alive.
00:10:18Very.
00:10:20Much alive.
00:10:27That's a very flattering offer.
00:10:31Sadly, we were only planning to do one in-memorial concert.
00:10:37Okay.
00:10:39Nice to talk.
00:10:42Laurence Welsh wants the Vampire Lestat to open for her.
00:10:45But he is two meters deep in Australia.
00:10:47No, she wants them after the album comes out.
00:10:50Sorry, sorry.
00:10:52Can we do that again?
00:10:53Can I get a little bit more vocal in my ears, please?
00:10:55In the ear, down the throat, past the colon.
00:10:58Play it from your groin.
00:11:01Larry, please stop thinking about Alex eating burgers and enjoying Glenlivet again.
00:11:10More singer, Sam. Hold the head shrinking.
00:11:12From the top.
00:11:14So, you're gonna re-record his parts, then?
00:11:18Bury the rest behind the other three.
00:11:26That's a deep grave.
00:11:32Pretend I'm Armand with the telemasker.
00:11:37Be the spineless mole once more.
00:11:43You dig a hole in the burrow for Larry's guitar.
00:11:51This is the job, Sam.
00:11:54Fill the space with worldly things.
00:11:58Go into the noise and dust of the city.
00:12:01Bring back presents of the present.
00:12:05This is the job.
00:12:06I want a job.
00:12:07I want to die.
00:12:08But you didn't die.
00:12:09Eighty years faced down with a seaman you killed.
00:12:13Long enough to learn the depths of despair.
00:12:16Do the job.
00:12:17Learn to endure the depths of living.
00:12:20Find yourself, Luzdata.
00:12:23I have lost myself.
00:12:26Bring me Luzdata, son of Marcus.
00:12:32From a tree of us, she chose you.
00:12:37A great honor.
00:12:38She likes music.
00:12:40She loves music.
00:12:42I don't know how to play.
00:12:43Recall your fledgling.
00:12:46Start with mimicry.
00:12:47Don't interrupt.
00:12:49Keep your hunts short.
00:12:51A quick sip of blood,
00:12:53a fast-fading warmth of the kill,
00:12:55then back to them.
00:12:57Here!
00:12:57What happened to him?
00:12:58Interruption!
00:12:59If you must bring one back,
00:13:01burn them here.
00:13:03Use the ashes to keep her thriving.
00:13:09And no blood.
00:13:12Our blood overwhelms.
00:13:14Just the ashes.
00:13:16Play her music.
00:13:20His name was Ein Kjell.
00:13:23How did?
00:13:24We burned in the sun, yes?
00:13:26Do you remember a night when your body burned under the moon?
00:13:30Yes.
00:13:33Yes, in Denmark, 18...
00:13:36December, 19, 1802.
00:13:37Finished the job transporting them from one crypt to another.
00:13:42Two bottles of ginger flower gin in the veins of a celebratory meal.
00:13:46I woke up next to her and my body afired.
00:13:50Hadn't finished the job.
00:13:53Left him above in the sun.
00:13:56My mother and I were countryside.
00:13:59We ran ourselves into a bog.
00:14:01Oh.
00:14:02Took us months to recover.
00:14:04Bogs. Bogs are rare.
00:14:09And now you know...
00:14:12why there are so few of us.
00:14:16Eyes at us back ages.
00:14:21We were all connected then.
00:14:24Through her.
00:14:25She is...
00:14:27She is the seed.
00:14:34And if she burns...
00:14:37We will burn.
00:14:39And you are her keeper.
00:14:42I don't like being alone.
00:14:43Ice trip, stumble, fumble...
00:14:47I am not worthy of this job.
00:14:48If I do not...
00:14:49Leave now.
00:14:50You know that small becomes big and big becomes the end.
00:14:55The end will burn the tree of us.
00:14:57You are...
00:15:02Worthy.
00:15:08Let her tell you that herself.
00:15:16It will take time, Lestat.
00:15:19She is not on our o'clock.
00:15:21To me, not a word for 22 years when I first took the job.
00:15:36You are listening to The Failures.
00:15:39Album 46.
00:15:41Side A.
00:15:42It's called Rev Par.
00:15:44Short for Revenue Per Available Room.
00:15:46It's been trending down, especially in high-end luxury property.
00:15:50Probably expanded too fast, but...
00:15:52There is panic now.
00:15:53So, I jumped on it.
00:15:55I got two more.
00:15:56One in Montreal.
00:15:57One in Boston.
00:15:59What's the matter?
00:16:00A place for us.
00:16:02Yeah, and them.
00:16:03There's not enough of us to make it profitable, but they can come watch if they want.
00:16:10If you don't want to be watched, then there's a private room in the back.
00:16:14Different menu in the back room.
00:16:16Little drinks.
00:16:16Little drinks.
00:16:18I missed you, brother.
00:16:22I missed you too, sis.
00:16:26Both of you.
00:16:27I wish we could stay longer, but you know Claudia always go, go, go.
00:16:34Got into something deep last night and it didn't clean good.
00:16:39Oh?
00:16:40What happened last night?
00:16:41We went to the Russian vodka room for karaoke when the understudies from Hooran Rouge walked in.
00:16:48Something about theatre kids makes me moody.
00:16:52We pickled sateen, took it downtown to the cubby hall, sucked it dry in the gans of water, and shoved
00:16:57it down the laundry chute.
00:16:58She's good.
00:16:59I actually played sateen on tour two years ago.
00:17:03No way.
00:17:03Yeah.
00:17:04This is really fun.
00:17:08So, we are here for two nights.
00:17:15And then...
00:17:29I think the whole thing's a fake.
00:17:31Total Milli Vanilli situation.
00:17:33It's Larry wrote all their songs.
00:17:34I was a yardophile.
00:17:36We knew that was his real name.
00:17:37When I heard him sing, it just hit me hard.
00:17:41I'm not saying it's a good thing the guy got shot, but I don't think he was even legally allowed
00:17:44to be here anyway.
00:17:45I got to go to dinner with him once at a white castle after the Hartford show.
00:17:50He was...
00:17:52It was so fucking hot.
00:17:54State your name for the camera.
00:17:56No names.
00:17:59Okay, random Manhattanite. What do you make of Lestat's exit?
00:18:02He faked us.
00:18:04High and dry when we needed him most.
00:18:07All cheap and easy non-fiction ends in death.
00:18:09Revolutions do not require a soundtrack.
00:18:12They only need numbers.
00:18:14And are you making more?
00:18:16Just one.
00:18:17I had a fang in his neck, but I was interrupted.
00:18:21Had to let him go.
00:18:22Sure, happens.
00:18:24I tracked him down, planned to finish the work, but as I followed him, I found him... fascinating.
00:18:32I'd sit at the foot of his bed in derelict motel rooms as he slept off a fix.
00:18:38Gradually, over the next 52 years, I was interceding on his behalf.
00:18:45And when he blacked out under an overpass...
00:18:49Okay, Jesus.
00:18:49...a donkey about to roll over him in an RV.
00:18:52Her wife Alice at home, pregnant at the time.
00:18:55Where the fuck are you, Dad? 52 years?
00:18:58I wanted to tell you in Philadelphia, but I felt you were not in a space to receive it.
00:19:02That was my gag reflex. I'm in love with you. Prove it.
00:19:09February 11, 1990. A reading at Amherst, Massachusetts. Four students attend. Three are there for extra credit. One is there
00:19:17for you to use.
00:19:19But you do, aggressively, in your rental car, in the garage of your Northampton hotel.
00:19:25I make sure the boy makes it home and forgets the event.
00:19:29May 15, 2002.
00:19:30You sneak away from your book research to attend your daughter's graduation at Rice University.
00:19:37She didn't ask you to come and mouth the words, fuck off, when she sees you approach.
00:19:43You respect her wishes and drive away in a daze, but I guide you to the Roscoe Chapel where, inside,
00:19:51you unburden yourself and weep.
00:19:56Uncontrollably.
00:19:56The attending guard asks you to step outside, but I...
00:20:00But he started coughing.
00:20:01A coughing fit, and you mourn your daughter's hatred for the next 30 minutes.
00:20:08In peace.
00:20:14August 5, 2025. I don't plan to say, love, until I make profound amends for the harm I've caused you.
00:20:24Yeah, sure. It's a timing issue.
00:20:2652 years. I've watched you. Where you went, what you did. Watching your sorrow, your modulating sexuality.
00:20:36And where was Louis at that time?
00:20:38At home, waiting to hear the minute details when I got back.
00:20:42Yes, you sainted him grey in your book, but he's calculating to the call. Methodically cruel.
00:20:48And here you are again, wearing the same set of horse blinders with Lestat.
00:20:54I signed a contract. I'm finishing a job.
00:20:57He cast you out, and still you carry his water. Let me help you finish that job.
00:21:02Yeah.
00:21:05Love between vampires can be one thing, or it can be countless things.
00:21:08I will never love...
00:21:10Like Lestat and Sophia.
00:21:14I want to be your maker.
00:21:16Finish the thought, Armand.
00:21:17I want to give you half your life back.
00:21:19Lestat and Sophia.
00:21:20Help you walk in the sun.
00:21:24I knew her as...
00:21:27Gabriella.
00:21:29She's Lestat's mother.
00:21:31What?
00:21:33Lestat lays with his mother.
00:21:39Did you say walk in the sun?
00:21:41This ain't no good.
00:21:45I'm gonna miss you.
00:21:50Make more.
00:21:51Make more.
00:21:53Why did you leave me?
00:21:56Two months ago.
00:21:57No.
00:21:58In New Orleans.
00:22:01Both times.
00:22:03I was happy you left, both times.
00:22:09By the river when you were three.
00:22:12And you...
00:22:15Picked up the 9,000th stick that day, and I kept having to say...
00:22:21What does that stick do?
00:22:28You were a terrible mother.
00:22:30I was.
00:22:36In Spain.
00:22:40I didn't need you anymore.
00:22:43You don't need around you what does not need you anymore.
00:22:48Breaks the circle.
00:22:53Okay, let's do another.
00:23:08You need me now.
00:23:10I do.
00:23:12Make more!
00:23:14Make more!
00:23:16Make more!
00:23:17Make more!
00:23:20Make more!
00:23:21Make more!
00:23:30Does this satisfy the request?
00:23:33What does it mean, make more?
00:23:37Like, make more what?
00:23:38I don't recall.
00:23:40Sounded cool.
00:23:45Elbow my way along the Minostraki.
00:23:47There's a new shop.
00:23:49Jewelry and the style of the Byzantine
00:23:51and plates embossed with the head of Zeus.
00:23:54It's all in very poor taste.
00:23:55But then the colonialists all have very poor taste,
00:23:58so why not feed it back to them?
00:24:00The city has modernized him in such velocity.
00:24:03It's crude houses, narrow streets, dead monuments,
00:24:07and then electric trams.
00:24:10And this, I found this.
00:24:16A liver action ice cream disher.
00:24:19For ice cream.
00:24:22The merchant called it a scoop.
00:24:26A scoop.
00:24:30Scoop.
00:24:31Scoop.
00:24:33Tickles the back of the throat when you say it.
00:24:36It's like an owl daydreaming he's a kingfisher.
00:24:40One final treasure.
00:24:43The young man with the bazooki out again.
00:24:46A new one added to his usual repertoire.
00:24:50And...
00:24:53And the G.
00:24:56Scoop.
00:24:57Something like that.
00:25:04Scoop.
00:25:09You have to put the puh, puh.
00:25:12Scoop.
00:25:15So is this what time works on us?
00:25:17Will I bloodlessly bloom into a husk?
00:25:19Come on.
00:25:19Hmm.
00:25:24If you were the first,
00:25:27then who made you?
00:25:28Why do we exist?
00:25:31Why do we endure at all?
00:25:34And why did she leave me?
00:25:42Am I evil?
00:25:48Is my evil sanctioned by nature?
00:25:53Or divine error?
00:25:57Where is God?
00:26:07Who dies and who stays alive?
00:26:22Again, same place.
00:26:231, 2, 3, 4!
00:26:26Big boss gets to have fun.
00:26:28If you're a boo-boo then he doesn't want you.
00:26:32Oh don't you dare write down this history!
00:26:35If you know him then you won on the score!
00:26:38Only the big boss gets to have fun!
00:26:42And who stays alive?
00:26:53That's a great idea, that's a good idea.
00:26:55Are we ready?
00:26:56Are we ready?
00:26:57Bad idea.
00:26:59Ready.
00:27:01Who stays alive?
00:27:12Again.
00:27:14Who dies and who stays alive?
00:27:19No.
00:27:20Who stays alive?
00:27:21No!
00:27:33Like bull!
00:27:35Moving on.
00:27:36You are listening to The Failures, album 49, side B.
00:27:41So how's it worked, you and him?
00:27:44How's it work?
00:27:46Where you at with Lemuel?
00:27:48Ah, taking it slow.
00:27:50Mmm, holding hands for now.
00:27:54Yeah, keeping it loose.
00:27:57Um, sorry, you don't, you don't have to do the accent.
00:28:03Oh.
00:28:04Yeah, it's, it's, it's hard.
00:28:06The, yeah, so maybe just...
00:28:09Use my own voice?
00:28:10Yeah.
00:28:11Safe.
00:28:12Start again?
00:28:14Yeah.
00:28:16What's it like with Lemuel?
00:28:20Simple things.
00:28:22Like, he asked me how I'm doing, and I say I'm good.
00:28:26And I ask him how he's doing, and he says, I'm hungry.
00:28:32Or, put down that iPad and give me some attention.
00:28:35Um, he doesn't count time like it's a badge.
00:28:41I go nice, I don't know where he is, but I like it that way.
00:28:45Yeah, taking it slow.
00:28:49Mmm.
00:28:58What you, what you writing in there?
00:29:00Uh, yeah, just this and this.
00:29:06All right, you two.
00:29:08Don't make me call the police.
00:29:10Take the boat back to the dock.
00:29:12We're gonna pretend this never.
00:29:17You're doing that to him.
00:29:19Yeah.
00:29:23Do it to me.
00:29:26Nah, let's just get out of nowhere.
00:29:28Come on, make me a stone.
00:29:58I'm gonna...
00:30:04what did you get out of here I can't hold him for too long
00:30:26here they come Nikki
00:30:28herbo, the clarinet, the announcement, the reprise, the harmonic shift
00:30:40oh foreshadowing, yes I can guess, move to the subdominant but not yet, not yet, not yet
00:30:48madame, if I see you would have loved it, competing strings for their legs, the counterpoint
00:30:56is like trembling waterfalls, it's like hungry peasants itching for a fight
00:31:07what do you think Marius, oh you're still on holiday, I blame you Armand's rotten guest
00:31:30perhaps if you finish the goddamn symphony it might have brought the choir in the final movement
00:31:34but it's a signature blend of Ottoman bicycle enthusiast and a Swedish barrel maker from Malmo
00:31:44who thought the Acropolis looked drab
00:31:52then it became that kind of party, Ankel, you like to watch?
00:32:00oh don't look now, but Magnus, his hand is wandering down my older brother's pants
00:32:07are you affronted by these intimacies, Ankel?
00:32:11my hand on your eve, on the eve of a great century
00:32:28splash of red for the new year, you have been exquisite in your years
00:32:47they split number eight on the middle, practical limitations cutting through his romantic gestures
00:32:53you're supposed to watch the music Armand, I don't know why I invite you worthless
00:33:03oh no no no yes i scratched it

00:34:08Oh, my God.
00:34:13Oh, my God.
00:34:32How is it that they live with such harmony?
00:34:45The billions of stars, how is it that they live in such harmony, the billions of stars,
00:34:54when most men can barely go a minute without declaring war in their own minds?
00:35:02Something wrong with that?
00:35:06No.
00:35:12Yes.
00:35:16Thomas Aquinas.
00:35:24Why did you take me to the witch's place?
00:35:28What?

00:51:48i'm so sorry about what happened to him
00:51:51oh
00:51:51yeah
00:51:52Yeah, I play those videos all the time, the concert stuff, not the shooting, I mean, uh, so, what are
00:52:00you doing in New York with your guitar?
00:52:04I can't really say.
00:52:06Oh my fucking God, it's true, isn't it? You guys are making the album. I saw it online. You got
00:52:12his vocals and I'm just kidding.
00:52:26I think it's wonderful because the world really needs to hear how beautiful he was, you know what I mean?
00:52:31Actually, I'm not in the band anymore. I don't even know if there is a band anymore. They're, like, laying
00:52:36down a record. I'm just, like, fucking tired, so.
00:52:41Oh. Oh my God, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. You do look tired. I'll, uh, leave you alone.
00:52:48A terrible goalie. With a total shredder with an axe.
00:52:54I'm sorry, what?
00:52:57She's right. You do look tired. You should probably get some rest.
00:53:04Do I know you?
00:53:12Rest?
00:53:14Rest.
00:53:19Rest.
00:53:25Rest.
00:53:30Rest.
00:53:32I can jump! Oh my God!
00:53:34I can jump!
00:53:37Oh my God!
00:53:37Oh my God!
00:53:38Oh no!
00:53:41Oh no!
00:54:04Taylor and Travis.
00:54:06Have you set the date yet?
00:54:08Be damaged, be cabbage.
00:54:12When the curtains are here, go out and eat.
00:54:15You reached out to the worst kind of witch.
00:54:17She is not like the rest of them.
00:54:21Armand's in town.
00:54:22He's going to try to disrupt things.
00:54:2550,000 of us out in the woods together.
00:54:28What could go on?
00:54:34Guests at my deathbed.
00:54:36We are making an album about my life,
00:54:39which has been a three century train wreck.
00:54:42We are here to pull the plug.
00:54:45Have some reverence.
00:54:46Kill me savagely.
00:54:55I would leave this coffin only once in four months.
00:54:58I would butcher the band for bloom and marbling.
00:55:01and stop at nothing until an album worthy of the long lurid life
00:55:06of Lestat de Liencourt burned into elegiac audio formats.
00:55:10So episode five, they're recording the album.
00:55:12Big Bad Wolf, vocals, take one.
00:55:15His mother comes back to him and says,
00:55:17hey, why don't you be this other thing?
00:55:19She needs him to create a song that will speak to all the vampires lurking in all the shadows of
00:55:27the world.
00:55:28And so he makes the album to be this thing for her.
00:55:31But of course, he's really fastidious and obsessive artist.
00:55:35So he can't really help but take complete control over it and get lost in the creative process.
00:55:40But throughout that process, he's niggled by these memories that he can't quite reconcile with.
00:55:46Why did she take me to the burning of these teenage girls when I was a child?
00:55:51Why did she touch me in those inappropriate places when I was, you know, wounded?
00:55:57You were a terrible mother.
00:56:00I was.
00:56:01In the moment, they definitely do find it hard to stop their complicated relationship.
00:56:09You need me now.
00:56:11I do.
00:56:18I missed you, brother.
00:56:20I missed you too, sis.
00:56:24Both of you.
00:56:25This show is really funny, intentionally so.
00:56:28I wish we could stay longer, but you know Claudia always go, go, go.
00:56:34There's lots of very dark humor, but also kind of, like, silly, fun humor.
00:56:40And then Off Off Broadway, Madeleine is definitely very funny.
00:56:43Took her downtown to the cubby hall, sucked her dry in a gans of water, and shoved her down to
00:56:47the laundry chute.
00:56:48She's good.
00:56:49Beautifully played, but it's also very twisted.
00:56:52It was so weird, but like, so comedically written that it was hard to not have fun with it.
00:56:58Something about theatre kids makes me moody.
00:57:00And I think Louis being on the other side of the table just made it that bit weird.
00:57:07I think at one point I was literally sitting in my chair, like, and I was off camera.
00:57:11And I was, like, sitting there, like, make it stop.
00:57:17I know Jacob.
00:57:18It was very, I think it was uncomfortable for everybody, because obviously we know the circumstance behind it.
00:57:24But for Regina, it's just another day on the job.
00:57:27Holding hands for now.
00:57:29Um, sorry, you don't, you don't have to do the accent.
00:57:34Oh, did you?
00:57:35Let's just, uh, let's get out of here.
00:57:45Can you go in there and tell me if it's her?
00:57:52I was shut in the streets when you didn't call.
00:57:56Selfish bastard, huh?
00:57:57There's a lot of things that keep haunting Lestat and then he meets Regina.
00:58:03I look like her.
00:58:05I look just like her, don't I?
00:58:06And that instigates a change in his music.
00:58:10The day you were born, I was shaking like a leaf on an old oak tree.
00:58:22That means he comes back and he writes a song about her that is more poppy and more truthful and
00:58:31more paid back and more honest than he's ever done before.
00:58:35And he presents that to the band and says, I think this is the sound, I think this is what
00:58:38we're doing now.
00:58:39So follow Larry to a better life.
00:58:42We're finishing the album.
00:58:45He no longer is trying to present himself and he's just being himself with his music.
00:59:26I think if he wrote stained glass eyes at the very start of the tour and he played it to
00:59:31himself, I don't think he would have taken it seriously.
00:59:33But I think he's had to get to this point where he could write something very emotional and very raw
00:59:39to realize that his music is a personal conduit of his expression as an individual.
00:59:46And you're just going to, what, re-record?
00:59:48The entire album, instruments play like metaphors.
00:59:56We're about to shoot Akasha and in fact our very last day.
01:00:00And so a high anticipation of just looking at her as Akasha and how she's going to play it.
01:00:07We're rolling whenever you're ready, Jared.
01:00:11God.
01:00:13It's a wonderful set.
01:00:14It's kind of like this underground storage unit with all of these pieces of history that Marius has collected to
01:00:22try and keep her entertained.
01:00:24It's been very fun to film in as a set.
01:00:27And it's been a remarkable setting for the introduction of Akasha to the series.
01:00:32It's alive.
01:00:33Very alive.
01:00:34This season played by Sheila Thiem, who is an extraordinary actor.
01:00:40She is the seed and you are her keeper.
01:00:43Marius is there trying to keep her controlled.
01:00:46And Lestat being Lestat is much more about like, let's, let's push and see what happens.
01:00:51He's also very lonely.
01:00:53A liver action ice cream disher.
01:00:57Anne Rice has Akasha awoken by Lestat, but we actually have Lestat stay within her crypt for, you know, ten
01:01:04years.
01:01:05In the book, he's there for a couple of days.
01:01:07He's cool.
01:01:10He puts on concerts for her.
01:01:12Where is God?
01:01:15And she wakes up.
01:01:23And then he's got the blood of Akasha in him.
01:01:25And then the way that that manifests in him is obviously he's like flying.
01:01:28And I was up on that rig.
01:01:31Hold on there.
01:01:32I'm going to give you some articulation.
01:01:35Yeah, great.
01:01:35Okay.
01:01:36It was a really fun thing to do, actually.
01:01:39That's so real.
01:01:40Oh, my God.
01:01:40I told you, man.
01:01:41Because I was upside down, you know, I was talking to Ron.
01:01:44He was like, what does it feel like to have the blood of Akashic cursing through you?
01:01:47So we were kind of like doing these jolting movements.
01:01:49And then they dropped me, which was like a proper ten-foot freefall.
01:01:53Wow.
01:01:54That's so much fun.
01:01:55What is this for?
01:01:57And what should the men do with it if not to answer?
01:02:03Sheila is phenomenal and extraordinary as Akasha.
01:02:07And I, I, I, I am the answer!
01:02:37I, I am the answer!
01:02:45The first time I was from, is my faith.
01:02:45I will have to find my own faith and experience on how it is.
01:02:45Finally, I was asking your client to help me get the big shootout.
01:02:46Because I was a small.
01:02:46But I was a small.
01:02:48I was thinking about getting back.
01:02:50I can't do it.
01:02:51I can do it.
