S1E15: An Embodiment of Sound/City of Lies and Misfortune - Zachary Ilya Ezrin (Imperial Triumphant)
We often overlook various issues that occur within inhabiting this planet we call earth. Don't we all? Even though there are so many problems to discuss, in 15 minutes you'll be a bit more educated on something that is growing to make a statement if you don't know them already.
In this episode, we shoot the shit with frontman Zachary Ilya Ezrin (Imperial Triumphant) about getting lost in his avant-garde black metal/jazz fusion project, producing the new experimental album "Alphaville" with Trey Spruance (Mr.Bungle), Barbershop Quartet and knowing and believing in what you're singing about.

S1E14: Devil the for Prays Who - Chris Natalini (BLOOD FEAST)
I've always been told that Japan's tight-knit underground metal scene thrives on supporting bands staggeringly when they come through their borough. Is this 100% accurate? It's about time we settle this.
In this episode, we chat it up with frontman Chris Natalini (BLOOD FEAST) about touring a home away from home in Germany, Japan, and Peru, obliviously attending one of the greatest show's I've ever attended at The Bug Jar, scoring a monumental record deal with Hell's Headbangers and the funniest moment ever performing with a tipsy bandmate.

S1E13: This Land Speaks to Us - Mike Marlinski (Aspired Infliction/The Metal Webzine)
Over the last decade, endless un-paid hours have been consumed into writing attention-grabbing building blocks that provide promotion for the Rochester/Buffalo/Syracuse underground metal scene. Now it's a castle, who is behind this madness?
In this episode, we talk to Mike Marlinski (Aspired Infliction/The Metal Webzine) about the very beginnings of The Metal Webzine, cluttered information about Aspired Infliction's future after Covid-19, the writing process of the new album "Artfully Imprisoned" and abruptly branching out to California.

S1E12: My Mail-Lady Hates Me - Trevor William Church (Haunt)
I've always thought throughout my narrow childhood that California has and/or had a surplus amount of underground metal songwriters/musicians making moves to join various bands. Welp, I was wrong?
In this episode, we talk to Trevor William Church (Haunt) about being a full-time father figure with the massive amount of musical obligations he forges through on a daily basis, releasing the newest Haunt record without Shadow Kingdom Records, growing up in the middle of nowhere let alone not having a taste of alcohol in 10 years.

In this episode, we converse with Rob Wharton (Cognitive) about how their victimized George Forman grill is a life-savior on tour, Cognitive's repetitive actions to stay clean and healthy on tour, performing with Cattle Decapitation under the most bizarre circumstances and being apart of Season of Mist (Record Label).

S1E10: Massive Peaks and Bottomless Caves - Unreqvited (鬼)
Have you ever felt so enlightened after listening to an album, it makes you feel like you can literally accomplish anything? Unreqvited is both depressing and overwhelmingly uplifting.
In this episode, we explain all things Unreqvited (鬼). We cover everything from his fledgling beginnings on the debut release "Disquiet", how the "Atmospheric Black Metal" Youtube Channel has helped this project gain traction on social media and quitting his day-job to fulfill his dream career as a full-time musician.
Several years ago, I was experienced one of the worst tragedy's in my life. You were there for me when no-one else was.
Thank you - Unreqvited (鬼)

S1E9: Unveiling the Future of Thrash (Hammerhedd)
Have you ever wondered who's going to be taking Metallica's place when they vanish into amnesia? Stop guessing, we've got an answer for you.
In this episode, we got a chance to rattle off some unanswered questions to Henry (Lead guitar/Vocals), Eli (Drums), and Abe (Bass) about their growing thrash metal band entitled Hammerhedd out of Kansas City. Within the last year or so, this band has been blowing up on social media extensively all around the world (You'll know exactly why at first glance/listen). With their youngest member in the band (Abe/Bassist) only being 13 years old, us "musicians" might need to consider some lessons to get on their level.
Additionally, some topics we discuss is how being brothers (bonded by blood) has solidified the amount of time they put into the music, writing obnoxiously heavy music in (E) standard and their love for Mastadon, Havok, Gojira, and Rush. Most importantly we got some information on the upcoming album they've been teasing us about.

S1E8: Fifty Ton War Machine's - Chris Andrews (Devourment)

Devourment has been proclaimed one of the gnarliest bands on the planet for almost a decade now. How do they keep moving along? Well, let us tell you. Consistency
In this episode, we got a chance to chat on a personal level with Chris Andrews/Guitar (Devourment) about the deep-rooted project that remains to have possession of the heavy-weight title as one of the heaviest bands in the underground slamming death metal scene to this day. Some highlighted topics we talk about in episode are having issues traveling with explicit content on their merch, how "Obscene Majesty" differentiates from the rest of their discography, flashbacks on tour with Corpsegrinder (Cannibal Corpse/Vocalist), and how Dallas Texas has played a huge role in their dark "sound".
Special thanks to Sean O'Donnell and my Aunt Christine for my first introduction with "Unleash the Carnivore" back when I was pondering through their CD collection at age 15.

Kris Xenopoulos (Vulvodynia/Technopath)
We've all had that one national tour get cancelled that we've waited attentively for the last 6 months due to visa issues. As a performer, was it even avoidable?
In this episode, we dissect this on-going issue with Kris Xenopoulos
(Vulvodynia/Technopath/XavlegbmaofffassssitimiwoamndutroabcwapwaeiippohfffX) as he is an avid touring guitarist from South Africa with plenty of knowledge on these types of things. Beyond that, we cover being endorsed by Ormsby guitars, being locked up in quarantine, and most importantly what it's in the works within all of his projects.

S1E6: "Buffalo's Worst Chicken Wings" - Zack Smith/Mike Dreher (Lich King)
Have you ever thought of starting a band but you're broke? Well, luckily Zack has your back with a step-by-step guide on how to make your band hit the ground running for only a measly 25$.
In this episode we talk to Zack Smith (Vocals) and Mike Dreher (Bass) about their experience with perhaps the worst chicken wings of all time, playing a tour unrecognized with Anvil, who'd they replace from the big 4, the same thrash formula from the 80's and most importantly their state-of-the-art album entitled "The Omniclasm".
