Chuck Schuldiner was never one to follow the herd. Dissatisfied with the limitations many extreme metal bands had placed on themselves, Schuldiner always strived to set Death apart lyrically and musically. Each era of the band contains a distinct sonic quality, and with the technical proficiency and introspective themes of their fourth album Human it was clear they had matured. Much of this progress can be attested to the inclusion of Cynic members Paul Masvidal and Sean Reinert along with metal bass pioneer Steve Di Giorgio. Schuldiner always surrounded himself with musicians capable of elevating his music and their next album would be no different. With Di Giorgio returning on bass, Schuldiner also enlisted the skills of Dark Angel drummer Gene Hoglan as well as King Diamond guitarist Andy LaRocque to create an undeniably tight unit. Death entered the world famous Morrisound Recording in Tampa, Florida and emerged in mid-1993 with a record packed full of intricate rhythms, blistering leads, and scathing lyrics. This week on Riff Worship, join Austin & Dylan as they discuss Death's landmark album ⁠Individual Thought Patterns Recommendations: Woe - Legacies of Frailty Carnifex - Necromanteum Unearth - The Oncoming Storm Unearth - III: In The Eyes Of Fire Svalbard - The Weight Of The Mask Noctule - Wretched Abyss Year of the Knife - Wish/Last Laugh For all updates on the show, follow us here: @distortion891 on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, & ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Tune in LIVE to Vocal Distortion, Mondays at 6PM CST on FM89, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WONC.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, & the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠iHeart Radio app⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ RIFFS ON REPEAT PLAYLIST: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37W4wEyb5ELf2y0YYlhRy2?si=8529ae1e880d442c⁠⁠

De retour d'une longue retraite spirituelle en Indonésie, c'est sur ses bases californiennes que Paul Masvidal s'attelle à la prochaine tournée de Cynic, groupe de métal prog atypique à la destinée pour le moins tragique. 2020 est ainsi à marquer d'une pierre noire pour le guitariste virtuose puisqu'en quelques mois d'intervalle, Sean Reinert et Sean Malone, respectivement batteur et bassiste du combo, disparaissent tragiquement. Après une période de deuil, de doutes, de dépression, le phœnix Masvidal renaît de ses cendres et offre avec « Ascension Codes » un divin voyage intérieur mêlant beauté et émotion. Puisque comme l'écrivait Baudelaire, « la musique creuse le ciel », celle de Paul Masvidal va puiser son inspiration au-delà des étoiles et se veut, entre-autres par l'utilisation de tonalités isochrones, une introspection aux divines vertus méditatives voire curatives dont chaque écoute transporte, transcende même. Why so Cynic ?

This is a recording of a live podcast panel discussion that was held in front of an audience about Art and Magick recorded at the Bali Art Magick Retreat on December 19th, 2022. This was the first retreat organized by Jake and held in Tabanan in Bali and was the impetus for the formation of The Temple of the Eternal Muse. It is a conversation between visionary artist Jake Kobrin, musician and sound priestess Kristen Kreatress, musician and legendary prog metal guitarist Paul Masvidal, and somatic therapist and creativity coach Marina Kurikhina. It marks the first official episode of the TOTEM podcast. I hope you enjoy, and happy New Years! Some of the volume levels are inconsistent, and I appreciate your patience in listening to this imperfectly edited podcast. 

We can't say goodbye to the spooky season just yet. This week the boys are beyond excited to welcome the progressive metal icon and pioneer Paul Masvidal of the formative band Cynic. Paul has brought to the podcast a story of seeing the 1973 supernatural horror film, The Exorcist. This movie, directed by William Friedkin, is a horror staple and a modern masterpiece. Paul and the boys get into the cursed history of this film before getting into the details of Paul's trauma inflicted by The Exorcist. Listen now for a conversation on the powers of the mind, the different layers of reality, and a cool history lesson on the intersection of metal and horror movies. This episode takes it to another level. Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, YouTube & TikTok: @WhoLetYouPod

It was really an honor meeting and chatting with Paul in this episode. I've been a long time Cynic and Death fan so this was a real treat for me. We get into all sorts of stuff: playing live, managing emotions, approaches to practice and writing, our love for Ben Monder, where we got started with music.... all sorts of stuff! Follow!

What is it exactly to be an evolutionary sleeper? Is it tapping into the force, dreaming up your reality? For those with sleep issues and a mental illness, sleep can be a stairway to baseline. Lack of it blurs the line, between your illness or disorder and your day to day.   "If letting go means letting be, and the truth beyond the mind is what I need", belts out Paul Masvidal of Cynic on the track for which this title is aptly named. Sleep helps us repair, recharge and reset. Alex Korb, author of The Upward Spiral, says one of the best insomnia fighters is gratitude. He also credits a regular sleep schedule, getting light during the day, exercising, but not before before bed.  We discuss depression and sleep. Check out the Harvard study about sleep and mental health, that we mention.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Death fue una influyente banda estadounidense de death metal, género al cual habrían dado el nombre junto a Possessed y su primer demo Death Metal. Considerada como de las principales pioneras del género, fue fundada en 1983 por su vocalista, guitarrista y principal compositor Chuck Schuldiner. La banda se disolvió tras la muerte de éste, a finales del 2001 a causa de una neumonía asociada al cáncer.El grupo fue formado en 1983 por Chuck Schuldiner, un muchacho de Florida de 15 años, junto a dos amigos, Kam Lee (batería) y Rick Rozz (guitarra), bajo el nombre Mantas (como tributo al guitarrista de Venom). Grabaron una demo de cuatro temas llamado Death by Metal, al mismo tiempo que se formaban otras bandas precursoras del género musical, como Possessed y Celtic Frost. Más tarde, en 1984 la banda cambia su nombre a Death y editan otro demo titulado Reign of Terror. En marzo de 1985 se registra su tercer demo, Infernal Death. Chuck se traslada a San Francisco y deja a Rick y a Kam que fundaron más tarde la banda Massacre. Ya en San Francisco, Chuck conoce al baterista Chris Reifert de Autopsy y al guitarrista John Hand. El grupo tuvo la colaboración en los ensayos del bajista Steve Digiorgio (Sadus), y, en 1986, graban la demo que les conseguiría su primer contrato discográfico serio: Mutilation. El grupo firma con la compañía Combat Records y un año más tarde queda registrado Scream Bloody Gore, su primer disco de larga duración. En 1988 Chuck se separa de John y Chris, y Rick Rozz (guitarra) se incorpora nuevamente a la banda, junto a él se unen Terry Butler en el bajo y Bill Andrews en la batería. Death continuó componiendo temas y lanzó Leprosy, su segundo disco. Tras esto, Rozz deja la banda y lo reemplaza James Murphy. La banda lanzó el álbum Spiritual Healing en 1990, el cual presentaba un sonido más técnico que las anteriores grabaciones. Durante la gira hubo diferencias en la banda y Chuck fue expulsado y reemplazado por otro vocalista. La formación no duró mucho ya que Rozz (anterior guitarra de la banda) reclutó a Butler y Andrews para relanzar el proyecto de Massacre y James formó parte de otras bandas como Obituary y Testament. Chuck volvió al grupo en 1991, reclutando a Paul Masvidal, Sean Reinert y a Steve Digiorgio. El lanzamiento del cuarto álbum, Human, estuvo a cargo de la discográfica Relativity Records. El disco significó un giro hacia el death metal técnico. El grupo grabó además su primer video musical, Lack of Comprehension, dirigido por David Bellino. Al año siguiente lanzaron el álbum recopilatorio Fate - The Best of Death. El siguiente álbum de Death fue lanzado en 1993 bajo el título Individual Thought Patterns. Gene Hoglan (batería) de Dark Angel, Andy LaRoque (King Diamond) y Steve Digiorgio se encargaron de crearlo. Poco después grabaron el segundo vídeo musical, The Philosopher. En 1995, Death firmó con la compañía discográfica Roadrunner Records y lanzó Symbolic, cambiando nuevamente los miembros del grupo, con excepción de Hoglan; los puestos fueron ocupados por Kelly Conlon en el bajo y Bobby Koelble en la guitarra. Chuck Schuldiner dejó el grupo durante algún tiempo para dedicarse a un nuevo proyecto, Control Denied. Poco después de haber grabado el primer álbum de Control Denied, a Chuck Schuldiner se le diagnosticó un tumor cerebral. El vocalista continuó con Death y se unieron a la banda los músicos Shannon Hamm (guitarra), Scott Clendinin (bajo) y Richard Christy (batería). En 1998, bajo la discográfica Nuclear Blast, lanzaron su último disco: The Sound of Perseverance. Entre sus canciones se encuentra un cover del tema Painkiller de Judas Priest. La enfermedad de Schuldiner empeoró, y varios músicos, revistas y compañías discográficas subastaron instrumentos con el objetivo de financiar su tratamiento. Después de que se diagnosticara la enfermedad de Chuck, Nuclear Blast lanzó en 2001 dos trabajos en vivo: Live in L.A. (Death & Raw) y Live in Eindhoven, grabado en el Dynamo Festival de 1998. El jueves 13 de diciembre de 2001 Chuck Schuldiner, de treinta y cuatro años de edad, falleció de una neumonía producto del cáncer.En 2013 los integrantes de la era del disco Human volvieron a juntarse, rindiendo tributo a su difunto lider Chuck Schuldiner, para la realización de una serie de conciertos a favor de la Fundación Sweet Relief en América y Europa.

Here is the 103rd episode of the Dreams of Consciousness podcast, featuring an interview with Paul Masvidal of Cynic, Onward With Love, and Aeon Spoke. It's hard to overstate Paul Masvidal's influence on metal's development. Alongside Chuck Schuldiner, he planted the seeds of technical and progressive death metal with Death's Human album; seeds he cultivated with his own band Cynic, whose influence can be heard to this day. I spoke to Paul about his new solo project, its use of isochronic tones, and his work with sound engineer Stéphane Pigeon. And since I couldn't let the conversation go by without discussing Cynic, I asked Paul' to share his thoughts on the band's legacy and influence, its current status, and how he feels about Cynic being referred to as "yoga metal". My thanks again to Paul for speaking to me, and to you for listening.

We had the chance to talk to Sean Reinert right on the heels of the announcement that his seminal band, Cynic, would be calling it quits before their next tour -- which was not only a surprise to fans, but, according to Facebook, a surprise to other members of the band, too. We asked him about the recent Facebook posts he wrote about their break up, what issues lead to the current situation, the back and forth between he and Paul Masvidal, and why two people who have worked together for so long can no longer bear to be around each other.

Getting you the news before it gets stale! The crew discusses Paul Masvidal's new website http://masvidalien.com/ and also talk about current events outside of the metal community. Tune in this Wednesday for an episode featuring reviews of the new Between the Buried and Me, Amiensus, and Cradle of Filth albums. The episode will also feature music from the Amiensus offering!

On March 20, 2014 Christina Tobin interviewed Paul Masvidal, guitarist and vocalist with progressive metal band Cynic, who will be performing at Free & Equal's United We Stand Festival May 10th at UCLA. Masvidal formed Cynic as a young teen in the late '80s in Florida; was recruited by the late Chuck Schuldiner to play guitar with Death in 1991; released the first Cynic record in 1993, and broke up after several years; Masvidal went on to attend UCLA, Musicians Institute; he studied jazz, worked in television and film, released an album with a folkgroup, Æon Spoke. He regrouped with Cynic in 2008, releasing four albums in five years. He talks about how important it is to have integrity and follow your heart in your work, how Frank Zappa went up against the government on music censorship, how big Pharma is keeping people sick instead of searching for cures, and how he worked with Jim Carrey on a children’s book, How Roland Rolls. Discussing the spiritual path of Cynic’s music (Paul is a Buddhist), he observes that “Everything that we think is working against us is actually a tool to help us grow.” Masvidal discusses his volunteer work with terminally ill people, helping them cope, how rewarding it is to “be of service to the planet and to your fellow humans.” Christina Tobin urges listeners to visit CynicOnline.com. “The more we support his music the more he can give back to the community.”

Paul Masvidal of Cynic is our guest this week. We have a long chat about his childhood, anger issues, his career as a writer for television and movies, the new Cynic album and why Focus broke up the band nearly 20 years ago. Chuck and Godless also talk about the importance of bands getting an accountant and deciding up front how to divide up the workload in light of the current situation Machine Head find themselves in, with former bassist Adam Duce suing the band. We also get stoked for the upcoming 70K Tons of Metal cruise this week. Song:Cynic – "Kindly Bent to Free Us"

We finally got on the line with Paul Masvidal of Cynic, who talked about the band's new album, Kindly Bent to Free Us, and about his love of metal, whether he considers Cynic metal and Sid got to fire off a round of questions at Paul as well. We also discussed Rob going to Anaheim and participating in the Metal Masters show, streaming on Gear Gods, Noa's brunch date with Sid & Darren's significant others and we talked about new music from Slayer and Metallica.
