Dan Gates of Cleveland’s Vicar Blood joins The Zach Moonshine Show to break down the fury behind their debut single “When War Comes”, the story of the band’s formation, and their rise from underground Cleveland shows to festival stages like Inkcarceration 2026.

“I always seems like I always have something going on… and Veda heard some riffs I posted online, and she said, ‘Let’s start a band.’ And that’s how Vicar Blood began.”

Hear about writing, recording, DIY mixing/mastering, killer guitar tones, and Dan’s journey from skateboards and thrash to modern death metal. Plus, get the scoop on their upcoming full-length album and why the band is all about keeping it heavy, real, and uncompromising.

Crank it loud, embrace the chaos, and catch the next level of brutal metal.
