When you account for all the bands and artists that have ever made music and tried to succeed in their endeavors for life, a select few do. And amongst those select few, only a small handful are able to succeed in this for 25 years or more. But what causes that success?

A heavy band that has been around since "metalcore" was a term knows this and with their latest album coming out more than 25 years after their first release, they know the reasons behind why their music succeeds, and why people still connect with it for all this time.

Brandan from the metalcore band Bleeding Through joins the Chord Progression Podcast with their 9th album "Nine" due out on February 14th. On this episode join us as we discuss:

• Why "Nine" is Bleeding Through's favorite record and their pride behind the record, having an additional take on their continued sound.
• The "Negatively Positive" emotions at the core of Nine, and why heavy music as a whole encapsulates turning negative emotions into positive results.
• Brandan's cockiness on the release of "Nine" as an album released later in a band's career that is not just a run-of-the- mill and exhausted sound.

A fantastic conversation with a great band that has been there, done that, and is still ready to deliver. Hit the subscribe button and never miss out on any new, old, or great artist again.
