Season 1 Episode 5 - CJ Yacoub - CJ is the drummer of Canis Dirus, Vulning, and others. I met them last summer at Cascadian Midsummer festival and had a chance to sit down (literally, in the forest) to hear the story about how they discovered metal music. 

If you're a black metal fan in Chicago on May 31, you can catch CJ playing with Vulning at Beat Kitchen - info and tickets here: https://www.seetickets.us/event/sadness/592126

Reminder -- Metal Gateway is a proud sponsor of Northwest Terror Fest 2024 - May 9-11 in Seattle (https://northwestterrorfest.com) and please come say hello if you’re at the fest!
