    The Cali Death Podcast is an exceptional podcast dedicated to the exploration of a highly underrated genre of music - death metal and technical death metal. The hosts and guests on this show delve into the minutiae of this genre with incredible passion, making for an enthralling listening experience. The death metal/tech death community is truly one of the greatest things in the world, and it is wonderful to see it culminate in a podcast like this.

    One of the best aspects of The Cali Death Podcast is the in-depth discussions it offers with heavy hitters in the death metal genre. Listeners are treated to fascinating conversations about career paths, sources of inspiration, recording techniques, touring experiences, and more. The hosts are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the subject matter, creating a laid-back vibe that makes you feel like you're hanging out with your buddies discussing your favorite bands. Additionally, certain interviews stand out as particularly enlightening, such as the interview with Paul Masvidal where he imparts supreme knowledge like a wise sage.

    However, there are some drawbacks to be addressed. While this podcast offers great content for death metal enthusiasts regardless of their location, there is a slight focus on California brutal death metal. While this may be exciting for Californian listeners or those interested specifically in that scene, it may not appeal as much to listeners from other regions or those seeking a broader perspective on death metal.

    In conclusion, The Cali Death Podcast is an absolute must-listen for anyone interested in death metal. It provides valuable insights into the genre's history and stories through interviews with influential figures in the scene. Despite some minor audio issues that need improvement, this podcast delivers fantastic content that resonates deeply with fans of death metal. Give it a listen if you want to dive deep into the world of death metal or simply enjoy a solid podcast experience.
