Just a heads up Evil Jay fucked up his audio by not having his Mic plugged in so he sounds like shit for the episode up until the interview. Sorry! If your a new listener its not usually this bad! Well the content probably is this bad but we at least usually sound sexier. Hopefully you can ignore it and still hear about some good ass metal. If nothing else tune in to the interview with Alex Joseph of Undeath which starts 54 mins into the episode - No audio issues there!Find more bonus content over at our Patreon:PatreonMusic Played on this Episode:Kommand "Gulag Orphanage"Necrophobic "Let Darkness be my Guide" & "Mirror Black"Faceless Burial "Spuming Catarrhal Gruel"Napalm Death "Backlash Just Because"MyGraine "Summoned Duality"Undeath "Acidic Twiglight Visions" & Suitably Hacked to Gore"Anaal Nathrakh "Endarkment"Inferi "Eldritch Evolution"  Gamma Sector "Engine of Decay"Cannibal Corpse "Five Nails Through the Neck"Kyriios "The Utterance of Foul Truths"Other links to listen:iTunesGoogle PlaySpotifyStitcher

Like everyone else I am completely blown away and absolutely crushed about the news of Riley from Power Trip. Its not hard to see from everyone's comments and from anyone that knew him that he was not only an amazing front man but he was also a passionate guy that stood for what he believed in no matter what. He always spoke out against the things he felt were unjust with no care as to what his fan base would think. That's a rare quality to find in metal and I think he left a huge void behind in that respect. I wanted to post this interview I did with him back in 2018 while they were on tour with Gatecreeper and Cannibal Corpse as a tribute to Riley, for those that might want to hear it, and really because its pretty special to me at this point. This interview almost didn't happen since Riley fell asleep before the show when we were originally scheduled to talk. He had apologized and said we could do it after there set even though Im pretty sure he didn't realllllly want to do it since he looked exhausted and ready to chill but did it anyway. Im super thankful to have been at that show and to have that memory. Rest in Power man.

Episode Recorded on April 22 Derrick Vella of Tomb Mold is back and for the first half of the episode we kept it casual and talked about quarantine life, Tomb Mold, his new doom project, what metal we've been listening to including new stuff and a lot of older stuff, joining Outerheaven, favorite hardcore bands/albums, and a whole lot more.  The 2nd half of the podcast is were things get weird and is all about our love for the band The Drive by Truckers. For those unfamiliar, they are basically an alternative country/southern rock type band but really pretty hard to classify. There's no metal to be found here. We realized we are both obsessed with this band a while back and Derrick through out the idea of ranking our top 20 songs from them. I loved it. You probably wont. Thats ok. It just gave us something to break up the quarantine boredom and have some fun with. Even if your not into it there was a lot of interesting side conversations throughout so its worth giving a chance to.
