We got a quick interview in with guitar legend Marc Rizzo from Soulfly and Cavallera Conspiracy at the Chameleon Club in Lancaster, PA. Marc was doing a short solo run with dead By Wednesday, and the night we seen him Opus and Mike from DBW were his backing band. It was a great, if not too brief conversation with one of the great metal shredders today . 

Chris and Steve from The World Without Us ventured up to the basement studio to talk about their upcoming Ep, Incarnate. We had a great time shooting the shit about all manor of nonsense, and finding out Juan spits.  We play the single off the Ep, I Am The Mist. The Ep drops October 25 so be sure to look for it on Spotify and hit them up to get physical copies when they become available, Great artists, great dudes, and great friends of the show. Be sure to support these guys. 

Great phone in interview with the talented metal master, Conan of Exmortus. Conan talks about the upcoming Ep, Legions of the Undead, scheduled for release on October 25 of this year, the upcoming tour with thrash veterans Death Angel, past tours, and band line up through the years.

In this our first show in this new series within the show, we interview Howling Giant whose new release , The Space Between Worlds , was released September 27th, and is a phenomenal ride from beginning to end! These guys were a little different for in that we tend to focus more on death and thrash metal on the show. Their stoner, doom, progressive style of music appeals to a wide audience and I found almost everything they put out had me engrossed in the music from beginning to end. Twist one up and enjoy the ride! The Space Between Worlds is out on Blues Funeral Recordings and you can find Howling Giant on social media on Facebook and Instagram. Check out all their music on Bandcamp.

Juan and I went to Quebec Deathfest and had the amazing honor to interview Samy from Patent, Dan Lilker from Blurring and Cam Schwarz from The Growl, an in the works comprehensive documentary about death metal. Unfortunately I found out the limits of our lavalier mics and the interviews sound like shit. our wrap up sound pretty good despite the fridge in the room doing its best to put the kibosh on it. I was going to scrap it , but ultimately I think it;s stiil great if you can bear the sound quality. 

Welcome to episode 20! in this milestone for us episode we shoot the shit about our up coming vinyl thrash/ metal trivia night at The Nitro Bar in West Reading, PA,  Quebec Deathfest, the upcoming Shocktoberfest concert, and the Kennet Brewfest in Kennet Square, PA. We drink a few beers and review and/ or bitch about them. I wont spoil the surprise. The music on this episode is a band from Portland called Vintersea. Extremely talented and pretty badass! 

Another great episode hanging with Darrell Creel from Alexandria, Virginia  based thrash band Unu-T-45  recorded  in the MBBS Studio in my basement.  Darrell talks about his time in bands in Virginia, then moving to Florida and hanging with Chuck Schuldner, and the Obituary boys, and finally making his way back up to this neck of the woods and joining Unu-T-45.  . This is a great episode with music from Baltimore based Unendlich, PA's own The Hopewell Furnace, and the show plays out with Unu-T-45. We drink beers from Main Brewing Company, Clown Shoes, and Lancaster Brewing Company. 

This was my favorite remote interview so far. Rich was an amazing guest who was gracious enough to invite us into his house and shoot the shit about his life in music and to talk about Total Fucking Destruction, his current band, and all the other bands and projects he's been in, including grindcore masters Brutal Truth. Total Fucking Destruction has a new album out on Give Praise Record called #USA4TFD so check it out after the interview!

Shawn and Bignose headed up to Allentown, PA to hang out at Soulgrinder Zines Metal Assault XI at The Alternative Gallery and got to talk with Gary from Chicago legends Wrath, Ross from New Jersey crossover kings, The Donner Party, and last but not at all least we talked to Alex and Caleb from Pennsylvania thrash beasts Fatal Agent. It was another killer show put on by Paul at Soulgrinder Zine.
