Interview with the amazing Greg Bennick (Trial, Bystander and so much more!!). Greg Bennick is an individual of so many talents. Incredible singer of multiple great hardcore bands-Trial, Between Earth and Sky and Bystander. He produces amazing films, he is an outstanding public speaker, a humanitarian as well as a comedian. He is articulate, funny and is passionate about things that really matter. We were privileged to speak to Greg when he recently toured Australia for his spoken word tour here.  Take the time to not only read this great interview (each answer has gems of wisdom that you should ponder IMHO) but more so; feel free to contact him if you would like to go deeper on some of the topics mentioned here and definitely look at the fantastic work he does through One Hundred for Haiti. Links at the conclusion of this interview. Greg through all his work is so inspiring and thought-provoking. Greetings Greg, It’s Mark from Devil’s Horns Zine. Thanks so mu...

Obituary interview with Donald.

Obituary interview with Donald. Obituary is absolute Death Metal royalty and their catalog is simply unbeatable. Their early stuff set the tone and changed the genre forever, but also their more recent albums are sensational as well. If you don't know their works, take a deep listen and you will be blown away. Great albums and incredible live.  We are so lucky to have this Death metal institution tour on our shores in January 2020. Get ready to be crushed, plus the amazing Wormrot are supporting....pure aggro!!!. Earlier this month, we were thrilled to chat with the insightful/warm and all-round great guy, Donald from the band. We chatted about the band's history, his own musical journey and many side tangents. Excellent chat with a chilled and informative legend. Enjoy!!!. Most importantly, the Aussie tour is close to sold out in most venues, so hit Santa up for a ticket...TODAY!!!! THEY ARE PLAYING CAUSE OF DEATH AND OTHER CLASSICS....EPIC GIG!!! ...

 Despised Icon-Purgatory album review and interview. Neither despised but without a doubt an absolute icon in the field of Deathcore. Cheesy puns aside, this is a breathtaking release of unrivaled and belligerent weight. It is extremely fierce and to create such a colossal album this far into their distinguished career is pretty damn amazing. Two albums after reforming and the world is at this band's feet. Purgatory is impeccable and magnificent. Their bio states:  Despised Icon is a Canadian deathcore band from Montreal, Quebec. Formed in 2002, the band is noted for the talent of its drummer, Alex Pelletier, whom makes frequent use of the blasting technique, as well as for its dual lead vocalists; Alex Erian and Steve Marois. Erian makes use of a mid-range growl technique while Marois performs high-pitched shrieks, deeper growled vocals and pig squeals. In April 2010, the band disbanded, but officially reformed four years later in February 2014. Beast was released ...
