The Metal Mama Podcast

Mama is solo again this episode and we begin by talking about music! There's been some great new singles popping out in the last couple of weeks and Candace tells you what she thinks. Moves on to a mini review of Dance with the Dead and Beast in Black playing live in Denver, and then we go into some questions asked along with a rambling answer. Candace ends the show by revealing what metal band finally caught her mom's ear and that's the episode.

On this episode, Candace is joined by one of the most inspiring people she's had the chance to talk to. Shred Rogers, a multi-talented metal musician comes on the show to talk about his projects. We touch on horror elements and comics and how they inspire musicians/artists, then he explains why he's started a family friendly metal project. This was such a cool episode to record. Not just because of two metal heads sharing their love of music, but hearing such an inspiring story or five.

In this episode, Candace is joined by Charlotte, lead singer of Terminal Dusk. Charlotte gives us a behind the scenes tale of their newest music video, and then we move into talking about the amazing power of female metal singers. Then, we move into a serious discussion. Candace gives her own take on being a woman who is into metal, and Charlotte lays down her experience from the side of a performer. It is an eye-opening discussion where Candace just shuts up and lets the woman share her story. After that, it's a whole lot of talking about metal and why we feel bad when we don't like a band we love.

Today, Candace is joined by Pete Rawcliffe from Crown Solace. We discuss the band's new EP, and take a dive into the technical side of vocals. After that, Pete talks a little about his inspirations and what pushed a sopranist into the metal side of things. As usual, there's never a topic and everything goes back to metal.  

Apologies for the audio issues. We use a pretty piece of software, but Pete's internet didn't like it and we had to resort to Pete using his phone.
