Sometimes Magazine

Sometimes Issue 10 starts with a killer 10-page interview with Chad Ubovich of Meatbodies, conducted in early 2024 in his home, with his dog, on the 1-year anniversary of his survival. It is probably the most epic interview of all time. We talk FUZZ, Meatbodies’ album Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom, Roy Wood, Zeppelin, and we go deep on some crucial rock ‘n roll obsessions and near-death hallucinations. Art and illustrations by Angela Rio. Photos by Bowie de la Peña, Lauren Krohn, and Sheldon Omar-Abba. RIP Ozzy.

Amyl and the Sniffers is EASILY one of the most important bands of our time. They grace the cover of Sometimes Issue 10 after two interviews with Amy Taylor — 2022 and 2023 — about the world, staying fit, reading, touring Comfort to Me, Dolly Parton, activism, serving people, and starting to write their latest album Cartoon Darkness as a fast-growing community gathered around them. Now they’re as big as planets!!

Incredible illustrations for this 12-page print-only piece were done by Austin Lotz. Interviews by Brooklyn Fellner and Sometimes.
