Fellow Morgan Rose (and Chad Kent) fanatic here. Check out: Eye Empire Ignite album, Call Me No One song Whatever Happened, Clint Lowery Choices album, and as he said, Kill The Flaw album especially the song Silly Beast.

May have missed it but a discography discussion about The last ten seconds of life or faith no more would be awesome!

Loved the podcast about this band. One of my favorites. I remember finding them on MySpace back in the day lol id listen to this stuff on an AOL speaker I got from my dad 😂 Anyway, Danza II is gold. The skits and everything. Maybe it’s nostalgia but that whole album is a vibe. By the time the other records came out; I felt like it was almost a standard to be as wanky and insane as you could in the scene. This band was really pushing the boundaries as well as other early bands in this genre before a lot of artists and a lot of standards started to cement. Thanks. Have a great one.

Thoroughly engaging, have been running through a lot of your uploads.

Wow I’m the second view? That’s crazy

This was very ballsy and enjoyable 👏🏻✊🏻.

Great interview Roy! Thanks for the shout-out!

Chad Kent is so good. 🤟🏽 Saw them a couple of times in Baton Rouge @ The Varsity and Nola @ HOB back in the day. Believe they were touring with Flaw. Great record! RIP Joey.

Filter Stole a stabbing westward song. I dont think anyone really sounds like stabbing so this discussion sucks right away LOL

Fantastic - so happy I found you! Subbed Please consider doing the very fun and woefully underrated 2006 films Severance or Behind The Mask The Rise Of Leslie Vernon

So your main issue with the movie is your own incorrect assumption that Laugier with Ghostland tried to make an "extreme horror" movie like the stupid, shallow, Terrifier-like dumpster fire that is High Tension, because you incorrectly think Martyrs is part of that genre as well just because it's very graphically violent and French. That's like calling any food that is spicy 'Indian' because you don't think for a second there can be any other type of spicy food. Laugier never labelled Martyrs as part of the French extremity movement. His movies are about emotions and trauma, not violence. The violence and brutality are a narrative means to an end, not the purpose of his movies itself. Watch his third movie, The Tall Man, for example. There's barely any violence in it (comparatively), but the same intense kind of emotional rollercoaster shines through anyway. You also apparently think Ghostland was an intellectual exercise in trying to be clever, but IMO the purpose was to create an intense emotional experience. And then later on you called it "too unintelligent to be able to say anything", because, again, you're trying to shoehorn it into your idea that it wants to be an intellectual movie, but that's just your incorrect assumption. A lot of Laugier's work has to do with points of views (he says so himself in interviews, criticizing modern movie for their omniscient, God-like cameras and narratives that don't make you emotionally engaged). You complained that the two villains had no extensive backstory, but that's because we see the whole movie through the eyes of Beth. I don't think she wondered for a second how the two psychos got together or what their underlying motivations were (if there were any, other than being sadistic sociopaths). The movie actively rejects the idea of telling a story from a fourth wall/omniscient point of view. It's about Beth's story, and if you didn't connect with that, if you were more interested in the villains and sad that there wasn't as much mindless vulgar gratuitous violence as in High Tension, I think all in all you've just completely missed the point of the movie. I think at some point you asked for whom that movie was made. I'll personally say, probably not you. The stars of the show were the two main characters and their emotional journey, but you barely mentioned them in-between describing your expectations for a Laugier/French extreme movie and how the movie falls short because it's not another slasher where the villains are the true protagonists of the movie, and it's not meta enough to be a good intellectual movie. You clearly spent so much time during your two watches of the movie waiting for something that was never meant to happen, that you didn't even pay attention to what was actually in it. And the line that sent you over the edge? "Incident in a Ghostland is her best novel yet"? Not even for a second did I take that to be Laugier talking about his own movie. Once again it feels like you didn't even try to engage with the story, constantly looking for third-person points of views or even fourth-wall-breaking Easter eggs, when all it really was about, was Beth once again trying to run away from a terrifying reality and seeking refuge into a self-indulging fantasy. You took that to be Laugier's point of view because you didn't get into Beth's story emotionally and expected just another Texas Chainsaw grindhouse or some intellectual exercise in meta discourse. The whole movie is about dealing with fear and trauma, and you completely missed it. The movie is titled like the book because that's her coping mechanism to survive. The movie was never about being 'transgressive' or 'gross' either. Again, you just got let down by your own expectations. Can't believe you ended your review recommending people to not even giving Ghostland a try and advising them to go watch the vulgar piece of crap that is High Tension. You said, "I don't know that High Tension is some work of genius or anything, but I just think that is a more palatable fun movie." Couldn't be more obvious once more that you completely missed the point of Ghostland if you expected it to be 'fun'.

Trash takes on Fear , cool video other than that tho.

Absolutes was my favorite record for something like 15 years.

Whaaat No comment ? 😂 For 6 yearsssss

Man, I remember when Derek finally came out of the house. There was a chain of people calling each other "Holy shit! I just saw Derek driving down Hwy 90!!!" Really hoping these dudes make music together again.

Awesome! Shared the stage with these dudes around Biloxi and Gulfport. Good times

My favorite song that Derek ever wrote is a song called The Well. It was released, I think, under a different name. But that whole album was fire, and I miss listening to it. I lost the cd Derek gave me. Derek & Chad, love you guys! - Lisa

Eighteen Visions were pioneers the whole way and they changed pretty much every album. Their earliest stuff is proto-deathcore and they perfected metallic hardcore by Until The Ink Runs Out. Even the lame stuff that preceded the hiatus (Obsession and the Self Titled*), those records were among the first where metalcore bands went in a more hard rock direction to chase the bag. What they've done since coming back, including both EPs, is generally a synthesis of everything up to and including Vanity, which is the pocket where they're best. *I don't think it's fair to say that it was people who wanted things to stay heavy disliked this album. I didn't know anyone at the time who didn't listen to at least some emo and pop-punk, but we all hated the self-titled. There's a reason the band broke up not long after releasing it, it's not what anyone who goes to shows wanted. Album sales only get you so far, you need to be able to tour.

Keep kicking ass Bro. Tony Misko

I’ve met spider and have the green album AFD unopened.

You guys are back!

Very glad to see some classic discussion uploads coming to this channel. ^^

I missed you guys podcast discussions. Hasn’t been the same in 2023 without you guys covering band’s discography. Will you guys be returning with new episodes going into 2024? I’ve been a fan of your podcasts since 2020 so I look forward to listening in on Apple Podcasts and here on UA-cam.

I enjoyed your discussion, guys. It was funny at times. I totally agree on your takes, especially about Gallery of Suicide (a masterpiece) and Pat O'Brien being one of the best death metal guitarists ever. Finally, someone who sees the light 😂 thanks 🤘

Maaan that was so fun!!!

I wonder how Derek feels about not singing on the only album they ever released, I can't imagine writing material...singing it and then when it comes to recording it having another person fill in. You have to dig and dig to try to find a version with Derek singing it. Imagine everyone loving the record you helped put your heart and soul into and you aren't even singing on it.

The hate on swim to the moon is crazy

man i remember seeing watership down at CPRfest way back in the early 2000s late 90s in gulfport Ms they played a show with 12 stones ...Watership was the ones that got me into drumming Withered and Whitfield got me through some really dark times in my life and saved me from suicide

Curious to hear what you all thought about Fluid Existential Inversions

I find it odd to be elitist about what one consumes. I could see it for something that requires more talent like actually playing music. I'm not totally against gatekeeping or elitism but i notice the J-Dawg like people who are metal fans and gatekeepers don't play an instrument. Too much time on their hands and all their pride and sense of identity is derived, again, from what they consume. Not what they create.

The argument in the beginning always makes me laugh! Dan: "You can't play the first Korn album in standard" Joe: "but Korn is not Thrash Metal" Dan: *abruptly gets triggered beyond belief* I agree that Joe wasnt making any sense, how does Nu Metal's tuning distinguish it's genre, but the same logic doesnt apply to thrash and death metal lol But now that you mention it, thrash and death metal are pretty similar, the main difference being harsh vocals vs clean. Slayer is brutal as hell but the only reason its not considered death metal is because he doesnt do harsh vocals. But his shouting is just as heavy as traditional harsh vox, the song Warzone from the God Hates Us All album to me is heavier than a TON of death metal songs.

Great analysis! Passage is an absolute masterpiece. 🤘

Omg please do an episode on Story Of The Year! They can get super heavy, so they can definitely count as Metal. Songs such as Won Threw Ate and Choose Your Fate are BRUTAL for Story Of The Year songs. Story Of The Year are easily in my top 3 bands of all time, and I've listened to a LOT of music. I'm a geek like you guys lol They also just dropped an album this year, so might be a good way to promote this channel while they're relevant

When Tim Lambesis was in jail, Shane Blay from Oh Sleeper joined As I Lay Dying, and became their lead singer for 2 albums, under the band name Wovenwar. It would be awesome to see you guys do an episode on Wovenwar, it's only 2 albums but it's always fun to hear y'all geek out about music

Finally I know what these dudes look like lol this episode was hilarious! "This album was shit on a stick!!" That was one of my favorite rants yall have ever recorded

Maynard actually said the only songs he helped write structurally on 10,000 Days are Jambi & The Pot, but I'd be surprised if he wasn't around for Rosetta Stoned as well as the Wings suite

Yo Derek my man....glad to hear you're good...i found an old email a few years ago with Y00n mp3's you had sent me way back....still listen to it - Jaz

Huge thank you to all of you for putting this together. Atomship was my first live show and it's awesome to get this kind of history from a band I cannot say enough good things about. And yes, Chad is the best drummer. Ever.

Are you not doing new episodes on Spotify

Ask Derek to put “a song called girl” and “the murderer” back on UA-cam I love those songs

I periodically check back in on Chad and Derek's videos to see if by chance they've reunited to recapture the magic of Water Ship Down. Please for the love of GOD, make more music! Please.... Damnit. "Down Here" & "Silhouette" both need to be revisited and released. What can we do as fans to help make this happen?

Is Dan back or just for the live? Keep up the good work

Theater Of Pain is Underrated

The first album is a masterpiece. I don’t understand the amount of hate the first album gets and why it’s o frowned upon to feel that way. I’m sure at some point we’ve all felt that way, idk maybe it’s just me.

Awesomeness!! Thanks for uploading!!

When are we going to get an updated Hopesfall episode?

Great Interview guys . I always wanted to know more for these guys , since I am from Europe and I have no idea what has happened. I would like to see more of these interviews and of course another interview with updates from Chad and Derek would be great. It is already more than a year I think. Love from Greece

Is discography discussion podcast done

Great discussion. I'm right around Joel's age, in the 90s we used the terms old school hardcore and new school hc to differentiate between the fast punk hc like Floorpunch or War zone and the metallic sounding stuff like Earth Crisis. Good times.

An interesting episide would be discussing Virgin Black. They're absolutely amazing!
