Show notes
This band, BornBroken, is kind of everything for me.They are heavy, brutal, tight, incredibly well recorded, and everything is well written. Let's be honest... they are all the things.Today, I'm fortunate enough to have on the original of originals: The man behind the legacy of the band, Michael Decker. If you like hard hitting, straight in the middle of the gut, right down the middle of the alley, heavy music, with no punches pulled, then BornBroken is for you. So, let's get ready to mosh, baby.Calling in from the magical world of Quebec Canada, this is BornBroken's Michael Decker.
