<p>My guest on the podcast this week is Devin Swank, vocalist of Ohio Death Metal band Sanguisugabogg. We talked about his approach to lyrics and songwriting, the early days of the band, taking inspiration from horror…and we talk a LOT about death metal.</p><p></p>

Thank you Bo. Thank you Hardlore. RIP
