The Distorted Dialogue Podcast

Connor Valentin from the Death Metal, Thrash Metal band Dissentience swings by the Distorted Dialogue Podcast to talk about the latest Extended Player they just dropped, Kaiju. Kaiju is written as a concept album infusing a Japanese style story of mass destruction by monsters, all being soundtracked by a punishing metal soundtrack. Connor tells how Dissentience settled on this concept, and how they went about incorporating into their writing. Dissentience has a distinct and unique blend of metal and having the drama in the music doubling down on this imagery, really helps drive these themes home, making for an even better listening experience.

We spent as much time talking about the music we love, more so than their own album, but it really helped provide context on how they came up with some of the ideas, and how they approached this album.

Check out Kaiju, and Dissentience's previous album Empire Anatomy, which is another killer album.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if a classical composer created an extreme metal album? Well, that’s exactly what happened on the latest album, Cathexis, by the Mexican extreme metal band, Phendrana. The multi-instrumentalist in classical composer, also has an affinity in love for some of the most extreme and heavy of metal music, so it would only make sense to combine the two in his sophomore effort, Cathexis. A truly textured and dynamic album, the man behind the project, Anuar Salum Incorporated, some classical and symphonic elements to create one grandiose sound. Whether it’s the sheer brutality, the contrasting drama, or meticulously written, progressive metal elements I had to find out what went into this album.

We talk about how he balances his love for both, and his ability to incorporate elements of both while separating the two sounds. We also talk about the Mexican metal scene. We talk about how he writes such intricate yet marathon songs and so much more.

On Episode 70 of The Distorted Dialogue Podcast, Frank D'Erasmo, the man behind the Thrash Metal band Legionary, swings by to talk about the upcoming album, The Never Ending Quest For Purpose, the growth and sound changes that make this album more epic than previous releases and so much more. We discuss how Fran approaches the writing process, as it is just him, how he arranged the tracks, how he discovered the few musicians who also contributed to the record, being Condition Critical's guitarist Tony Barhoum on leads and As I Lay Dying vocalist Chris Clancey. A truly captivating thrash metal record, full of riffs, but having a larger more grandiose sound, and positivity packed lyrics made this an easy album to keep smashing the play button on.

I thought the record was so good, I reached out to Tony to find more out about it, and I figured I would share it with you. A Never Ending Quest For Purpose drops on March 6th, and this is an album you just have to hear, as is this interview, as it tells you how much Frank put into this album. Frank is no stranger to Thrash beginning tin the 2000's, he has worked tirelessly delivering quality thrash metal to the masses and this new album, The Never Ending Quest For Purpose is coming in hot and heavy.

I want to thank Frank for taking time out of his busy schedule to chat with me about the album, and on such short notice.
