One of the positives of the pandemic has been live music, and no band has rocked a front porch harder than teen East Bay death metal quintet Iron Front. Band members Topey Plourde (vocals, senior in high school) and Max Mahmood (drums, 7th grade) join host Peter Hartlaub to talk about making music while going to school during the pandemic, how crowds have responded to their music and some of their own favorite bands. We also play parts of three Iron Front songs off their EP Demonic Possession.

Produced by Peter Hartlaub. Music is "The Tide Will Rise" by the Sunset Shipwrecks, with cable car bell-ringing by 8-time champion Byron Cobb.
