On Episode 53 of the Distorted Dialogue Podcast, Indianapolis Blackened Thrashers Graveripper stops by and their frontman and founder Corey, discusses their new album From Welkin To Tundra. We also discuss, their writing process, their influences, their discography and so much more. Graveripper is a Blackened Thrash band, that is straightforward face melting metal, and in my opinion, one of the top albums of 2025. Another stellar release coming from the Morbid and Miserable label and Wiseblood Records, which are having phenomenal years. I couldn't thank Corey enough for the riffs, and the conversation was cool too. But those riffs....too damn good. Find out more about the album, the band, and more importantly, go check their album out!

Episode 52 Valkyrie’s Jake Adams stops by, fresh off of their killer set at the Descendents of Crom Festival, this past September. After seeing their performance, I just had too many questions about their sound, I just had to interview them. Here we talk about what makes Valkyrie's sound, what has been keeping motivated, how the band kept going, when his brother Pete left for an extended period to help out their friends in Baroness, and so much more. I had a blast talking to Jake, but not quite as much fun as seeing them live. I was a fan of their 2020 album Fear, but after watching them perform, I was sold. It actually looked like they were having a blast, while churning out some rock and roll, which clearly transitioned to the crowd. Jake seems like such a cool dude, and after meeting the band at the show, they are just as rad! so go check out their music and let me know who else you guys want me to chat with

Pittsburgh metal masters in band  @edhochulitheband  took time out of their busy schedules to sit down and talk with me, on Episode 50 of the Distorted Dialogue Podcast. We discussed their 2024 album, Highlander and what went into making it. With members spread between both Nashville and Pittsburgh, I wanted to find out how they got such a tight sound, being so spread out, to which they credit their honesty between members. I only met with Ben Jones and Dave Varney, but I am catching Edhochuli live in 3 days, at The Descendents of Crom festival, held annually in Pittsburgh, showing off the best of the regions talent, and as you can see, Edhochuli is part of those greats. Maybe, I can get the whole crew this time? A mix of punk and hardcore, mixed with metal and a whole bunch of passion, Ben mentions that seeing this live is even better than their albums, which I find phenomenal. An eclectic sound, with 2 drummers driving this machine forward, that just shows the amount of sound they have!

Several weeks ago, I was talking with a few different bands, when I noticed I really had no idea how many dynamics really involve the music scene, wether it's the manger's duties, the royalties, marketing and promotion, and a million more. I read about the issues that trouble bands, royalties, contracts, streaming, and I realized after talking to  @realrandyojeda  how little I really knew. I also didn't understand, as only a creator exactly all the different aspects and possibilities of what all goes into getting a band a steady and successful foundation to hopefully begin a long and successful careers. As someone who over analyzes everything, talking to Randy really helped begin my curiosities. I am not sponsored, paid, affiliated with Randy, other than talking to him here, as I generally am just curious about the industry. I would like to hang out with him at Disney or a show if I can ever get back to Florida where he is based out of. Thanks to  @CSquaredMm2  for setting this up!
