My guests on the podcast this week are Alex Taylor of Malevolence and Jay Valentine of Guilt Trip. We didn’t have enough time to do both bands, so given their history together as UK’s metal and hardcore siblings, I thought I’d grab them both at once. We talked about both bands’ efforts to bring their unique sounds to the USA and the culture shocks that come with it, as well as their similarities, differences, and respect (or lack thereof) for each other.

My guests on the podcast this week are Chris Davis and Andrew Tkaczyk of THE GHOST INSIDE. In 2015 The Ghost Inside suffered through a life changing bus crash which claimed lives, limbs and nearly the future of the band. 10 years later TGI is stronger than ever - thanks to the mental fortitude of the members and an ingenious device created by Andrew’s father ‘THE HAMMER’ that allows him to play the drums perfectly while missing most of his leg. A truly harrowing and inspirational story, this is a podcast that shouldn’t have as many laughs as it does.
