We dive into his early metalcore years, aesthetics of the band and responsibility. Not to mention we discuss why the band chooses not to commit their lives to the road and how that helps them be creative.

The man, Mr. Jonah Matranga is on the podcast today. He's the frontman of Far and his solo project OneLineDrawing, but now known as just his namesake.

I tend not to do repeat guests, but I will grant exceptions for certain circumstances and frankly this was one of them. Considering it's been 6 years since I checked in with my friend Brendan Murphy from Counterparts, it was about dang time. We discussed mental focus, expectations and aesthetics behind the band. It was a insightful and reflective chat on how he has changed and where things stand now.

A huge band for me fresh into the metalcore scene, was Focal Point. Their blend of everything I love lyrically and musically about the genere was all there and today I have the pleasure of bringing you a discussion I had with Ryan Clark, the guitarist of that band plus Demon Hunter and Training For Utopia. We dive in to discuss the proper etiquette of X'ing up at school, early band life and rabid fandom.
