We are 3 metal heads bringing you an elitist-free podcast of all things metal and hardcore.

016B0FFC-5EF5-4546-9DA4-4269527A0FFC.png Hey guys episode 66 is kind of a sneak peak into our Patreon bonus content. We paired half of our first bonus episode with a huge interview with James Murphy, previously of Death, Obituary, & Testament. He talked about his Disincarnate project, becoming a member of Death for the “Spiritual Healing” period, writing on Obituary’s “Cause of Death”, joining Testament, and a whole lot more. If you want to hear the remaining 45 mins of the original Patreon bonus episode head over to our Patreon site at the link below. Stan was unable to join us for this episode due to his ongoing black metal mold problem so we had two special guest listeners that joined us and really brought their A game. We talked about our favorite concerts and an overlooked death metal classic Disincarnate “Dreams of the Carrion Kind” which was James Murphy’s project after his time with Obituary.
