Give me money on my Patreon …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead formed in Austin, Texas in the mid-'90s, led by longtime creative partners Conrad Keely and Jason Reece. The band quickly became known for explosive live shows, smashed gear, instrument swapping, and a sound that blended post-hardcore, noise rock, punk, and indie rock. Their early albums built a strong underground following before they signed with Interscope Records and released Source Tags & Codes in 2002. That album became the band's breakthrough, featuring songs like "Another Morning Stoner," "Relative Ways," and "How Near, How Far." Over the years, Trail of Dead continued experimenting with everything from sprawling concept albums to progressive and orchestral rock while keeping their raw energy intact. More than 25 years into their career, they remain one of the most unpredictable and ambitious bands to come out of the late-'90s indie and post-hardcore scene. I got Conrad and Jason on the Zoom and this is what we chat about: Growing up in Seattle scene Sneaking into a studio to record their first album Merge Records Interscope Records Recording Source Tags & Codes Trashing their equipment during their sets Will You Smile Again The Jesus Lizard story Their thoughts on Spotify and streaming The Slipknot story (you don't want to miss this one) And a ton more Go give Conrad's Patreon a follow Catch Jason's band on tour and give their instagram a follow.

On this episode, Jake is stuck in Boston so guest host Dr. Lundy is talking about extreme music being blamed for extremely bad things, from Slipknot to Ozzy to Judas Priest.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Slipknot was the most extreme thing to come out of Iowa since taco pizza was invented there in 1974. Their sound was massive: nine masked members played with brutal force, propelling their fans, affectionally known as "maggots," to a cathartic release of destructive energy at every show. But when two teenage fans claimed that the band's songs inspired them to commit murder, the destructive energy Slipknot had so far controlled began to tear the band apart.

Having grown up in Nashville most of his life, John is classically trained in theater/music and the Performing Arts, in addition to a background in communications, radio, and television. When he came back to the Music City after some time away, a Tears for Fears cover show that he attended helped plant the seed for John to create a sense of community within the Nashville music scene and give back. With his E.Y.E. Productions imprint (Everything You Ever Productions), John helps put on themed shows in Nashville which also give back to various charitable and non-profit organizations. Featuring an array of artists and talent within the local music scene performing cover songs, E.Y.E. Productions events over the years have included New Wave Prom Night (80s hits), The Halloween Ball (Halloween classics), and THE VOID (industrial, alternative, and nü-metal). Additionally, John fronts the Nashville-based Nine Inch Nails tribute band Not Your Nails, the Korn tribute band Karrot, performs as The Nashville Krampus, and is part of the East Nashville Clowns. On Saturday, August 1st, E.Y.E. Productions is putting on another addition of THE VOID at Eastside Bowl in Nashville. Featuring Not Your Nails performing "Broken" in its entirety, this addition of THE VOID will also feature other Nashville talent performing covers from the likes of Slipknot, Tool, Poppy, Type O Negative, and Depeche Mode, among others. The event will raise money for MusiCares, a non-profit which helps musicians. In this episode, John talks with Mike about how he got into music and the performing arts, having a supportive family that fostered creativity and giving back, creating E.Y.E. Productions, building a sense of community in the local Nashville music scene, some of his favorite vinyl albums, 80s TV and movies, and more.

This week on Deadpod we're back at the Orpheum Theatre in San Francisco for the second set from 7/12/76, a show that has that special midsummer 1976 feel I've always loved: relaxed, open, and full of musical space, but with plenty of spark still in the band's step. The set gets underway with a very nice "Sugaree," followed by a spirited "Samson And Delilah," and then we move into one of the great touchstones of the era — "Help On The Way" > "Slipknot!" > "Franklin's Tower," played here with real assurance and flow. From there the band keeps the momentum going with a lively "Dancing In The Street," and then settles into the deep emotional current of "Wharf Rat." After that comes "Drums," and then a wonderfully expansive "The Wheel" that helps push the set into its final stretch. "Around And Around" closes things out with some good old-fashioned punch, and "U.S. Blues" brings us home in the encore with just the right amount of swagger. It's a set that really shows what was happening with the Dead in 1976: the band had found a new balance, and they were making music with patience, depth, and a real sense of possibility. I hope you enjoy it. Grateful Dead Orpheum Theatre San Francisco, CA 7/12/1976 - Monday Two Sugaree [10:53] % Samson And Delilah [6:46] % Help On The Way [4:32] > Slipknot!

En esta transmisión especial de la Galería Nocturna, JC de Goth Prods y Cobarru de Metal Memes se reúnen para conmemorar el primer aniversario luctuoso de Ozzy Osbourne, celebrando la vida y el legado eterno del "Príncipe de las Tinieblas". A lo largo de la charla, los anfitriones exploran cómo John Michael Osbourne, tras superar una juventud complicada en Birmingham que incluyó bullying, dislexia y un paso por la cárcel, encontró su verdadera vocación en la música hasta convertirse en el abuelo y padrino indiscutible del heavy metal junto a Black Sabbath. La conversación profundiza en la explosiva carrera solista de Ozzy tras ser despedido de su primera banda debido a sus adicciones, destacando cómo su trayectoria fue salvada y moldeada gracias al talento del guitarrista Randy Rhoads y a la inigualable visión de Sharon Osbourne, quien asumió el complejo doble rol de esposa y mánager. Además, JC y Cobarru analizan su impacto cultural al crear su propio imperio, el Ozzfest, como respuesta al rechazo del festival Lollapalooza en los años noventa. Este festival no solo consolidó su estatus, sino que le permitió apadrinar a toda una nueva generación de bandas del Nu-Metal, como Korn, Slipknot y Limp Bizkit, manteniéndolo vigente entre las audiencias más jóvenes. El episodio también recuerda su salto definitivo al mainstream global gracias al carisma natural y sin filtros que demostró en el exitoso reality show de MTV, "The Osbournes". Finalmente, los anfitriones reflexionan sobre los últimos años del cantante, quien a pesar del Parkinson y los estragos físicos de sus excesos, continuó grabando música desde la sala de su casa. El live cierra rindiendo tributo a su última e innovadora presentación virtual, "Back to the Beginning", realizada apenas 17 días antes de su repentina muerte, un evento que no solo cerró con broche de oro su carrera, sino que dejó un inmenso vacío en la industria y abrió el debate sobre el futuro del metal ante la inevitable partida de sus grandes leyendas.

What happens when a band gets kicked off a tour for being too satanic? You'd think that would be the end of the road, but in rock and in metal, it's often just the beginning. That's exactly what happened when Twin Temple was dropped from Charley Crockett's tour over concerns about their overt Satanic image. But almost immediately, Jack White, former frontman of The White Stripes, stepped up, inviting them out to open for him while telling them, quote, "Get in front of me, Satan." It's a story we've seen over and over again. Fred Durst was initially repulsed by Staind's shocking, blasphemous imagery, only to later become the man who gave them their big break. Time and time again, artists who openly flirt with or profess allegiance to Satan don't disappear after the backlash. They often find influential voices eager to elevate them to even bigger platforms. And the story doesn't stop there. We'll look at some of the most openly satanic bands in modern music, examine how the industry's biggest names have responded to them, and even trace how Slipknot's Corey Taylor has dramatically evolved in the way he talks about spirituality, God, and Satan over the years. Is this just rebellion? Is it simply marketing, or does it reveal something much deeper about the spiritual battle behind music?

Yeah, it's like, "Where do you live?" "Uh, well, it used to be Modell's." -Dan Dissinger This is a special Nostalgic Reflections with all three longtime friends digging into the vanishing malls in the U.S., their memories of hanging out at The Roosevelt Field Mall, some of their favorite stores and some of the most ridiculous ones, how the food court free samples could be gathered into a meal, and how abandoned malls are being turned into apartments.

Interview by Kris PetersWhen American metal titans Motionless In White announce a new record, the heavy music community stands up and takes notice. Celebrating two decades of sonic devastation, Chris Motionless and his gothic-metalcore troupe are poised to unleash their highly anticipated seventh studio album, Decades, on July 17. It is a monstrous, career-defining release that effortlessly honours their dark history while forcefully kicking down the doors to the future. From the industrial venom of the lead singles to the monumental collaborations featuring massive names like Slipknot's Corey Taylor plus Skylar Grey, Decades is a masterclass in survival, raw passion, and artistic evolution.HEAVY sat down with frontman Chris Motionless to find out more."It's an exciting time," he enthused when asked how he is feeling about the new album. "We have been working for what feels like literally forever on the record, (laughs) so it's still very weird for me to think that we even have singles out… It's just a very different shift in life, but it's really cool because finally the music gets to see the light of day."We ask Chris to tell us more about Decades musically."This one was definitely - as every band's gonna tell you (smiles) - trying to go above everything we've ever done," he replied. "Catchier. Heavier, blah blah blah, but it's true. We definitely wanted to make sure that everything that we do, that I think the fans love the most, was considered heavily on this one. We really wanted to try and make sure that their feedback was listened to and that we were integrating what fans love the most and then what we love most about the band, and I think that's maybe the reason why things feel pretty positive so far."We bring up the heavier aspect alluded to on Decades, asking what he means specifically by heavier."I would say it's a mixture of everything," he measured. "I think the music may not be so much heavier all around, but there's definitely much more energy. There's so much more fast-paced, or more… just much more energy in every way. There's only one sad, emotional song, per se. Usually, we have three or four, but this one's only got the main one, and the rest is constant rolling energy that I think really helps the album feel different from any other Motionless record. The lyrical content, yeah. Some of it's heavy, some of it's fun. It's a good mixture of everything. I wouldn't say that there's too much, like, you're gonna hear and go (exhales deeply) I need a break from that. It's more meant to be an exciting and uplifting experience."In the full interview, Chris dives deeper into the musicality of Decades, including the well-documented writer's block he had early in the process, what snapped that and how it impacted the rest of the album. He talked us through the opening track, Decades, and why it was chosen to introduce the album, as well as the momentum shift between songs on the album and how Motionless In White allow for a smooth transition.We talked about the different genres expressed in Motionless In White's music, and how they find the balance in the creative process, the first time he heard one of their songs on the radio and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
What are the best FIFA World Cup 2026 kits, and why do so many modern football shirts look worse than their vintage predecessors? What is the difference between a bootleg and a knockoff? When does a garment become vintage, true vintage, or archive fashion? Why does fashion feel like it is in a down cycle—and why are Leviticus, Obsession, Backrooms, and Longlegs part of the same cultural conversation?Sol and Michael return for an episode about sports fandom, fanaticism, horror movies, and “integrated fashion”: the idea that clothing increasingly absorbs the hobbies, communities, media, politics, and rituals people build their lives around. Starting with food influencers, perfume storytelling, and a fit check featuring Keep Earth jeans, vintage U.S. Open golf tees, a 1999 Slipknot shirt, Iron Heart denim chaps, raw denim, Grailed, and Self Edge, they examine how collector knowledge, age, scarcity, and internet language reshape what counts as vintage menswear or archive fashion.The pair then break down bootleg versus knockoff culture through New York Knicks victory shirts, anime football jerseys from Mexico, Goku and Neon Genesis Evangelion kits, Grateful Dead lot tees, rare Daft Punk bootlegs, vintage movie T-shirts, Liquid Blue blanks, and Lithuania's legendary 1992 Olympic basketball uniforms. They ask why fan-made merchandise can carry more cultural meaning than officially licensed sportswear, how Fanatics and heat-pressed jerseys changed sports merch, and why vintage football shirts now function as streetwear, collectibles, and fashion history.Then comes a full World Cup kit review. Sol and Michael debate the best 2026 FIFA World Cup jerseys, praise DR Congo and Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), criticize the USMNT flag-based kit, and revisit iconic soccer shirts including the USA 1994 denim kit, Japan's 1998 flame goalkeeper jersey, Mexico 1998, England 1990, Chile 1998, Croatia 1998, Germany 1994, Jamaica 1998, and Nigeria 2018. They also discuss collars, national identity, heritage design, team arrival fits, tournament dress codes, Wimbledon whites, and Andre Agassi's acid-wash Nike tennis style.From there, the conversation moves into Paris Men's Fashion Week and fashion's current down cycle: Balenciaga after Demna, Pierpaolo Piccioli, Pharrell Williams at Louis Vuitton, Rick Owens x adidas SS27 inflatable air-conditioned sportswear, latex and fetish aesthetics, Meta smart glasses, privacy, AI surveillance, and influencer culture. The hosts examine 424 casting Clavicular, Woah Vicky, online lolcow culture, fashion-media ragebait, and the widening gap between viral runway moments and serious editorial fashion writing and research. They also connect World Cup politics to Iran and the United States, debate fashion's political silence, and review Zohran Mamdani's soccer style.Finally, Sol reviews the new era of horror movies, including Leviticus, Obsession, Backrooms, Longlegs, Cuckoo, Talk to Me, It Follows, Hereditary, Midsommar, The Lighthouse, Paranormal Activity, Insidious, Cloverfield, and The Blair Witch Project. Why are low-budget, internet-native, character-driven horror films connecting now? Is Longlegs a great supernatural crime procedural with a weak ending? Is Leviticus one of the best horror movies of 2026?

The Podcast That Rocked for 7/8/26. Who is on the Mt. Rushmore of Metal, Corey Taylor's Last Meal interview that shared a lot about the singer, more.Discussion Topics: Corey Taylor's Last Meal Was Great (and we're hungry) What are our personal Mt. Rushmores for Metal, Grunge, NuMetal, etc Evanescence worreid about being a 1 hit wonder Mastodon make short video for Brent HindsDave Mustaine still really wants to go to space Five Finger Death Punch to #1 because BILLBOARD AND RADIO CAN'T LEARN! (that was Luke yelling) Is Lindsey Stirling more metal than given credit? Upcoming albums/tours/moreSONG OF THE WEEK: Jay Weinberg (ft. Softcult) “Drown Fountain” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJjQeSYdt1QOn the latest episode of Last Meals, Corey Taylor is invited to talk about the birth of Slipknot, personal struggles, getting through addictions, and his Mt. Rushmore of heavy music. That lead us to think about who we think some Mt. Rushmores in heavy music are (such as heavy metal, grunge, nu metal, etc). The video is worth watching and subscribing to. Also, subscribe to our channel if you haven't. We can't offer chicken fried steak, but we can offer bad dad jokes.
On today's episode of The Metal Breakdown Daily, host Scott Penfold discusses an incredibly raw, unfiltered look into the personal life of one of metal's biggest frontmen. Slipknot vocalist Corey Taylor has opened up about his intense mental health journey, revealing it took the coordinated efforts of three therapists working simultaneously to help him look at past mistakes and rebuild his life. Appearing on a recent podcast, Taylor shared that three years ago, deep-seated insecurities left him hating who he was and hurting those closest to him. He credits his wife, Alicia, for standing by him and inspiring him to re-evaluate what true success means outside of music. Plus, New York death metal pioneers Suffocation have officially locked in a massive European tour run for this coming October. The band will be bringing an absolute powerhouse of a package across the Atlantic, featuring support from Ingested, Undeath, and Eternal. We break down the full list of dates, venues, and routing. Finally, black metal outfit Abigail Williams announces they have officially commenced tracking for their highly anticipated seventh studio album. The band confirms that drum tracks are fully wrapped up with Mike Heller, and recording has resumed in earnest at Ken's home studio following a highly successful run on the European festival circuit, aiming for an early 2027 release window.

Australia, get ready to have your faces completely melted because some spectacular savagery is heading down under this winter. Floridian metalcore titans Wage War are returning to our shores for their first-ever nationwide headline tour, and if you think they're coming alone to play nice, you are dead wrong. They are bringing one of the most vicious live acts on the planet today to help them tear down venues across the country: Nashville's very own heavy-hitters, Orthodox.Led by the chaotic energy of frontman Adam Easterling, Orthodox are a unique but undeniable powerhouse that absolutely refuses to compromise. These guys have made nu-metal feel genuinely new and dangerous again. They take the absolute best elements of Converge's start-and-stop metallic hardcore, throw it in a blender with the unhinged fury of early Slipknot and Korn, and channel it through their own signature, modern style. It is a molten alloy of sonic violence that hits you like a freight train, reminiscent of Knocked Loose or Harm's Way but with an entirely different breed of aggression.Having just dropped their massive fifth studio album, A Door Left Open, Orthodox are returning to Australia with a massive point to prove. Aussie fans got a small taste of their visceral live show last year when they supported Stray From The Path on their final run down under, but this time around, the gloves are completely off. This isn't just music; it's a therapeutic, audio beatdown.This epic winter tour is shaping up to be an absolute ripper. Melbourne demand has already forced a massive venue upgrade to the iconic Forum, while Brisbane's Tivoli and Sydney's Metro Theatre are selling out faster than a bad decision at 2:00 AM. Alongside local legends Heavensgate, Orthodox are primed to deliver a masterclass in pure, unadulterated hardcore violence. If your neck isn't broken by the end of their set, you simply weren't doing it right. Get your tickets now via Destroy All Lines before you're left with major FOMO.

Great to get Chris back on the podcast. He's been out of Slipknot since 2019, but he's got a lot to keep him busy. On this episode, we discuss his relationship with Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward. "He's like another father to me. That guy's amazing." He said they talk just about every day. He tells me about his friendship with the late Phil Campbell of Motorhead, golfing with Alice Cooper, and his massive baseball card collection. What was it like playing those earlier Ozzfest gigs as Slipknot was climbing the mountain of metal success? He talks about his favorite SK album and why it's that one. My fave as well! He shares some funny Ozzy stories, drumming with the late Joey Jordison, meeting fans at comic-cons, working with the legendary Rick Rubin, and lots more. As I said, it's great to have Chris back on the pod. Enjoy!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Jake Luhrs of August Burns Red comes on to talk advice from last words, finding purpose and their new album!
In part two of Madi and Lor's conversation with James Coffman, the three dive even deeper into what it actually takes to build a career in the music industry as a creative and life on the road. James shares how genuine relationships opened doors for him to learn video, the story behind creating content for Slipknot and having his work turned into merch, and why saying “yes” to opportunities while preparing financially helped him finally make the leap into full time touring. The conversation unpacks everything from creative burnout and finding your visual style to why social media should be more about the artist than the person behind the camera. James also opens up about the realities of touring, the creatives currently inspiring him, and the mindset that has helped him go from local concert photographer to touring the world with some of the biggest names in alternative music. Packed with honest advice, behind the scenes stories, and the same no gatekeeping honesty from part one, this episode is a must listen for anyone dreaming of breaking into the touring world as a creative.----------------------Follow All Things Backing The Barricade:https://www.backingthebarricade.com/https://www.instagram.com/backingthebarricade/https://www.tiktok.com/@backingthebarricade----------------------Follow Madi:https://www.instagram.com/earthtomadison/Follow Lor:https://www.instagram.com/lorealmichele/----------------------Follow James Coffman:https://www.instagram.com/jamescoffmanmedia/ https://www.jamescoffmanmedia.com/

Le voyage débute avec le rock de PJ Harvey et le virage électronique de Radiohead, avant d'explorer le phénomène Nu Metal à travers Deftones, Linkin Park, Slipknot et System of a Down. L'animatrice célèbre ensuite le renouveau du rock indé, des bouillonnantes scènes new-yorkaise (The White Stripes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Strokes) et britannique (Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, The Libertines). L'émission s'attarde sur les croisements entre rock et électro qui ont révolutionné la décennie : Daft Punk, Peaches, The Chemical Brothers, Le Tigre ou encore Gossip. On redécouvre la soul d'Amy Winehouse et l'ascension fulgurante d'artistes révélés par MySpace comme Lily Allen ou Arctic Monkeys. L'animatrice souligne aussi l'émergence des futurs géants des stades Muse et Arcade Fire, et la nouvelle vague de la French Touch incarnée par Phoenix et Justice. Pour terminer en beauté, l'émission fait un clin d'œil à la vague émo-rock avec My Chemical Romance, avant un détour par le stoner des Queens of the Stone Age pour refermer cette belle rétrospective des années 2000.

Who was Stanley DeSantis? Why is a 2004 Slipknot tee selling for $2,000? And what does a Daft Punk Roulette residency shirt have to do with how fashion brands sell you a lifestyle in 2026?Sol Thompson and Michael Smith return from their Neuehouse live recording for Episode 3 of Pair of Kings Season 14, continuing the season's deep dive into integrated fashion — the symbiotic loop where brands, hobbies, and ephemera matter more than the clothes. This week the boys go solo on the post-COVID explosion of the vintage band tee resale market and the story of Stanley DeSantis, the late character actor turned licensing impresario whose 90s company Passing For Sane made some of the most collectible all-over print T-shirts ever: X-Files, Aeon Flux, Spawn, Wizard of Oz, Speed Racer, Beavis and Butt-Head, Gone With the Wind, Pink Panther, Independence Day. The man licensed everything.Sol and Michael unpack why vintage T-shirts became fashion's most contested asset class: NYC's 8x vintage multiplier, why Slipknot Iowa-era merch and Daft Punk Vegas Roulette tees command four-figure resale on eBay and Whatnot, single stitch vs. double stitch hems, and the rodent-brain instinct of saving a Dub Tribe Sound System eBay search for years. They revisit the Miu Miu Literary Club through intellectual signaling (Simone de Beauvoir, Fumiko Enchi), the Aimé Leon Dore x Porsche 993 Turbo collab, defend RRL as American integrated fashion's original blueprint, and confront the imposter syndrome of wearing someone else's faded jeans.Other topics: Hedi Slimane Dior Homme resale gatekeeping, Charlie XCX Pop 2 merch as a future grail, the $3,700 Lady Gaga Schott Perfecto, why Akira and Ghost in the Shell tees became NFTs from first principles, scenecore and metalcore history (Suicide Silence, Dance Gavin Dance, The Used, Odd Future), Graceland Ridgewood, Rick Birkenstocks, and a moment for the goat — Stanley DeSantis, 1953–2005.Brought to you by ScentSplit.
