We don't often go to the Netherlands when coming up with show topics (although we should more often), but we thought it was high time that Pestilence got a little attention. Coming out of the mid-80s, they brought with them a thrash sensibility, but soon incorporated brutal/technical death metal elements, culminating in their Testimony of the Ancients album. This episode we're joined by frequent guest Chris Dick, as we navigate through their Consuming Impulse and Testimony of the Ancients records.
