Note: this episode starts off with some really bad audio quality for Tom. It does get better eventually, though. I tried everything I could to fix it but it's just what it is. Waiting until after all the eye-popping and rapturing of souls from the North American Eclipse has settled down, we're finally releasing our bonus episode on the discussion of Korn's experimental dub-step album, The Path of Totality. Tom and Jeremy just have a short discussion on the album and why it ever happened.

Today we have a very special episode. Tom and Jeremy interview Kyle and Anthony from Scars of Life. They talk about the history of the band, the unexpected love for their song "Bullet With Your Name", the decision to reunite and work on new music. This is also our first full video interview for the podcast. The video is up on our YouTube channel which you can by searching for Breathing Nu Life Podcast. Direct link to the interview is below.
