Chapter 92: "Let The Song Write Itself" ...as read by Carley Coma of Candiria (Recorded on Monday January 23, 2017) Carley Coma, lead vocalist of Candiria has done a lot of podcasts lately. We tried something a little different. Candirias' new album "While They Were Sleeping" is an outrageous concept album that had been birthed from Carleys' perspective of 9/11, people on their phones at the train station, Ferguson, a vision of the Empire State Building and inspiration from Brooklyns' largest library. I wanted to go track for track and have him walk me through it. So here it is, the podcast companion to the new Candiria album straight from the man who dreamed it up. Thank you Carley for dragging your weary behind to task and having this conversation. This podcast makes me want to do more of these. Enjoy...and BUY THIS AMAZING ALBUM!

John LaMacchia, guitarist of the reactivated Candiria, guests this week on your favorite metal podcast and we dive deep into the band's new record While They Were Sleeping. In our interview we talk about the many projects he's spearheaded, how 9/11 took its toll on him and led to addiction, the dark nature of the music he creates, going back out on tour and what that means for his lifestyle, and what the future might bring. We also talk about the disappointing sales figures for Avenged Sevenfold's new album, The Stage, which sold less than half the number of first week copies as their last record did. The stunt of announcing the record one day before its release may have backfired. Do stunts and tricks work in a band's favor? Or is it counterintuitive to fake out their hardcore audience by not telling them that you're working on new material? Will this benefit or hurt the band's upcoming lawsuit with their old label? Was the label change a good idea after all? Does anyone really care? Songs: Candiria – "While They Were Sleeping"Dark Tranquillity – "Encircled"
