#DyingFetus #GarzaPodcast #Metal #Band #interview
The Heaviest Podcast of All Time
Members of dying fetus seldom do podcasts, let alone having all 3 of them at once for an hour. I cannot explain how much I learned about my favorite band from this. Despite their popularity and longevity there is shockingly little information about them in the internet. Specifically regarding lineup changes earlier in the bands life. This is incredible for us Dying Fetus fans
Right?! Getting all 3 on here is SUCH a blessing to us fans! Also crazy to hear from John that he was doubting Dying Fetus when Necrophagist and The Faceless got traction. Then he fucking put out Descend Into Depravity (their most technical release) and followed up with Reign Supreme (their best album and a GOAT'ed modern death metal classic). Maybe the real sound of perseverance were the 3-piece records they made along the way? ;)
@@bcbitchkkvIs it? Purification Through Violence all day for me. Pretty sure I saw Necrophagist open for DF when I was a kid 🤔 Blew my balls off
I also was stunned to see all three. They come on my birthday in Minneapolis MN!! 11/11!! Hell Yes!
I was smiling like a jackass scrubbing through the video timeline to see what they talked about. STOKED! So excited that they did this.
True that!! A lot of history packed in this podcast
Sean Beasley is one of the most underrated bassists out there. Not only is he playing some of the most technical bass riffs, but he's pairing that with a killer tone and some awesome growls.
facts!
Seriously! The fact that he follows John's sweeps, especially songs like Your Treachery, Invert the Idols or Devout Atrocity, and it just goes completely unnoticed... that's blasphemous!
@@bcbitchkkv Induce Terror is another great example. There’s a section in that song in which he repeatedly sweeps into a tapping lick and sweeps back down all while doing vocals. The man is insane
One of my favorite bassists of all time.
NO JOKE!!!!! A lot of bands are doing drum cams these days but I wanna see a Dying Fetus BASS CAM!!!!! He is wayyyyyy too good to go unnoticed!!
The harder the band, the softer spoken the members. Love it!
4 professors in this room, so much to learn from listening to true OGs like y’all
No doubt dude.
Correction: x3
What lol Napalm Death wouldn't be Napalm Death without Genocide(Repulsion) and SIEGE (USA) .. Come on, and Mitch from Napalm Death I think named it the blast beat, read Choosing Death.
@@audiowhatsapp1919seriously I was facepalming during the Repulsion talk
Fr tho dude
Is anyone not gonna mention john’s soothing speaking voice? He sounds like a chill uncle
Gallagher wearing Dokken shirt and his appreciation for the early Stryper is phenomenal. Didn't expect that to be honest. And I'm listening to Fetus for over 20 plus years. Hair Metal from the 80's rules btw!
hell yeah. Was pleasantly suprised to see the Dokken shirt myself
Yeah dude. Stryper is sick. Sweet is probablynthe most underrated musician from that period. He could play AND sing with the best
I concur
If you ain’t Rockin With Dokken, you ain’t living!
DF and Nile shaped my death metal ear, for better and for worse. Absolute legends here all around.
for worse?
@@ch0king_victtim I understood it as if he's saying that is difficult liking other stuff after listening to these guys.
@@ch0king_victtimNile can make you jaded especially if you listen to them early in your metal life. Nothing compares.
@MoreBuffMoreMuff Holy shit, you nailed it. I got into Nile WAY too early and got really jaded without realizing it. Had to deliberately take the time to appreciate other things instead of basing them off Nile. They're stupid heavy and atmospheric and really not much else compares, minus a handful of other bands.
Noone can compare to Nile. Greatest band of all time.
John sounds like the chillest dude ever. What a contrast with his vocals. I love that
AN ABOMINATION, THE LAST OF FAMILY FILTH
It doesn't get much better than Dying Fucking Fetus! I wish you would have asked John about why he suddenly decided to grow out his hair and beard though! 😂
I was hoping for this too. All these years we thought he was bald. 😂
I imagine covid happened and he just said screw it
Haha. Yeah. Probably needed a change.
exactly and why someone would go bald all his career when he has glorious Robert Plant hair.
I was confused at first because I am used to seeing a bald head lol.
"Be humble all the time" I say this any bands or other DIY folks because you should always be grateful that people come see your music live or show interest in what you're involved in. There are a million other things people can be doing with their time and they chose to spend time at your event. Always be humble.
Truth
Stateofmind...well said!
Listening to Dying Fetus discuss tuning guitars down way too low is truly wonderful.
DF always had the most brutal pits during the early 2000's. So powerful.
My cousin lost 2 teeth in their pits , I had suffered a minor knee fracture too. Dying fetus pits were unbeatable back then
@@raregrimebeats1352 I was legit scared especially when most of the moshers were 6 foot plus 200 pound savages. As soon as Praise the Lord or Killing on Adrenaline kicked in, those guys sprinted into the pit.
The pits are still brutal - in Long Island you’re bound to get punched in the face!
@@logancrusan6336 I mean, loose elbows and arms swinging in the chaos happens in the pit. But deliberate punches to the face? That just sucks.
@@bcbitchkkv haha yeah I suppose it’s more swinging arms, but the shots land nonetheless
The fact that Reign Supreme was the only album that was written while John was completely sober 100% puts to rest the idea that all the best music is made by people who are high as a kite. Not only is Reign Supreme the best Dying Fetus album, it is also one of the best death metal albums of all time.
I'll take it a step further and say, AT LEAST, in the conversation for best record ever recorded across all of heavy music, period. I certainly can't think of one with an immediately obvious edge over it.
@@earlyandoften It’s easily in my all-time top 15
100%
nah bro. Killing on Adrenaline of Destroy the Opposition. That's the best era of Fetus w Kevin Talley on drums and then having 2 guitarists.
i agree ...
I love John Gallagher even more now that he listens to Stryper. Solid interview
This band deserves their own documentary.
I just got into Dying Fetus a few weeks ago. Reign Supreme is a flawless metal record.
hell yea!! ALL of their albums are brutal
Their old albums might need a acquired ear but they’re way too good. Killing on adrenaline, purification through violence, stop at nothing..
Destroy the opposition too dang sorry lol
Fuck yes dude. That’s the album that got me into them. Can’t go wrong with any of their albums, I just came across their Infatuation With Malevolence album, and I love how it’s an album that came out within the last 15 years but a few of the songs sound like 90s thrash metal songs
Love that album so much. It’s incredible for any heavy metal fan.
for how aggressive Dying Fetus' sound is, they are so chill and humble. amazing podcast episode
Dying Fetus sourcing Yes as an Influence. This why they the GOATS
Doesnt get heavier than dying fetus, tightest 3 piece in heavy music, period.
Facts!!! So damn true. They are super technical and progressive! Amazing to see them do that for an hour on stage!
Forget 3 piece, one of the tightest bands in DM, period.
Never seen a more tight live band. It was nuts.
Obviously you don't listen to metal
@@pathologist..23 please enlighten us with your infinite pearls of wisdom
What a pleasure watching this while preparing SUMMER BREEZE in our headquarter. Great to have DYING FETUS at our fest!
Trey Williams still one of my favorite drummer. I'm so glad I met him.
Trey is one of my favourite drummer in metal...the precision, the groove, the blast
This band is perfect since their beginning
Yep, Dying Fetus are gods.
Kevin Talley era was the best fetus, like 97-04 years.
I think Trey is great, and the perfect drummer for DF now. But Kevin Talley is my all time favorite drummer, and "Destroy the Opposition" is in my Top 5 All Time Albums.🤘
Trey style is the best !!! Best DF drummer.
Thank you for your opinion, Art.
Dying Fetus had a huge impact on me in the early days and still 20+ years later. Metallica made me want to play guitar but Dying Fetus made me want to play sick riffs. Still inspires me today.
They are the best live heavy three piece band in the world right now and have been for years.
Their music might not be to everyone's taste, but nobody can deny how talented they all are.
People...
We have a new Dying Fetus album coming! Fucking REJOICE in the brutality!!!
Dude and it's soooooo good
Dying Fetus concerts are always lit. Both times I saw them in Seattle it was packed shows. Especially the 2nd time I saw them.
This was awesome! Had no idea John was dealing with substance abuse recovery. Glad he's doing well!
he was BAD with just booze 4 a long time dude.
Fan for life. Had the honor of meeting Sean Beasley his first tour with dying fetus when I was a teen. He was super humble then and still to this day. Also I’ll never forget I saw John sparking up a joint just before they took the stage at the culture room in Fort Lauderdale. Also I remember the other fetus singer was trying to sell me boot leg dvds just to make a buck while on the road. Mike kimball was cool as fuck too taking time to talk about his rig and influences. Truly a game changer for me musically. I felt alive for the first time in my life and inspired.
that the 2003/04 tour with Hate Eternal right after Stop at Nothing came out? I got a hoodie at that show that said ONE SHOT ONE KILL and it had Bin Laden in the cross hairs huge AF on the back.
a ton of military type dudes and veterans always complemented it, til they saw the front said DYING FETUS on it😅 in like "Fuck you army boy" as like a 21 yr old with the heart of a punk rock kid😅 I was core as fuck, spitting towards the ROTC dudes at the mall tryjng to recruit kids yellig at em to go die for oil money. , I was such a little fuck head bro
This is the most in depth Fetus interview. I could listen to so much more lol
Glad to hear Internal Bleeding get a shoutout. Love them so much. Going to see Pyrexia next month!
Hell yeah!
Enjoy that show. Two of my fav bands there. NYDM for life.
One of the best shows I've been to , suffocation/ skinless/ pyrexia/ internal bleeding LINYDM.
Loveeee iB
@@PaulHanson-sh9nz suffo started in my high school and I witnessed it… terry is my bro since 84. Doug bohn from pyrexia also from suffo same school on Long Island.
Crazy to hear them mention Necrophagist (RIP) and The Faceless (basically RIP) as the next big thing back then and to see that Dying Fetus is still going strong
I got the limited akeldama vinyl. their first two albums are so good. now that the faceless went on to either be boring (albums 3 and 4) or just inactive cuz they can't get their sh\t together, it's hard to believe those first two faceless albums were as amazing as they were
@@Rob_Cary I thought Autotheism was great and In Becoming a Ghost had a bunch of really good songs on it but yeah those 2 albums were my favorite
So just in case you guys aren't aware, three of the OGs from The Faceless are now in a band called The Zenith Passage, and last month they released a new album that is album of the year for me and it ain't even fucking close. Y'all check them out and support so they can keep going, they're fucking fantastic.
trey is a super genius. every time he speaks, it’s insightful and interesting
I remember when I saw Dying Fetus live they were playing Tomorrow from the Annie movie in the PA right before they came out and then they got on stage and started playing Opium of the Masses 😂😂
Lol they did boys are back in town when I saw them
I saw em about a year ago in Nashville and before the set they played clips of babies crying and chainsaws revving. Fucking awesome band.
Nice Dokken shirt. And the shoutout to "Stryper" was crazy to hear from a band as heavy as these guys. Fucking awesome \m/
Dying fetus at Webster hall, summer slaughter tour. Stood at the bar, had a perfect view of the stage. Was still one of my favorite metal experiences of all time.
The drummer has so much knowlege about every band. Thats so impressive.
Probably the most BRUTAL band on the planet!! This is a dope episode...Thanks for killing it Garza!! 🤘🏻
Maybe the best heavy band period. They do everything you could possibly want from a band like them and they do it flawlessly.
Hell yeah! Glad you got to have them on!
When I first saw that South Park episode and heard they were actually playing DF...my head nearly exploded! Never would've expected to hear them on a platform like that. Props to Matt and Trey.
BRO PLZ TELL ME WHICH EPISODE NUMBER IT WAS😢 I HAVE TO SEE THIS😮plz.
John Gallagher is a beast
John and the dudes are so humble and laid back. That's not an act. Met them all multiple times. This is the real deal.
They were my first intro to real Frankenstein vocals and technical death with Destroy the Opposition. God bless Dying Fetus
Make them beg for death has some of the BEST mixing I've ever heard in death metal
Killing on Adrenaline is one of the best albums I’ve ever heard. Love you guys!
John Gallagher, especially as he ages, gets calmer and calmer and reminds me of someone... maybe a Seinfeld character, or Steven Wright the standup genius.
Man, I’ve been waiting for this one!!! Thank you!
What awesome guests to have. It was such a treat to see you guys all perform at Ridglea Theater in Texas. It was my 5th time seeing Dying Fetus and 1st seeing Suicide Silence. One of the most badass lineups I've seen.
Stryper definitely has some decent songs. Mortification was sick too.
This was awesome to watch! Thanks for interviewing DF! 🔥🤘
Thanks for all the interviews with these legendary death metal bands, appreciate it !
I discovered these dudes my sophomore year of high school. It was a meme of bear in the big blue house playing “kill your mother/ rape your dog”. Thought it was funny af and then I bought destroy the opposition. Blew my mind. Love these guys and been supporting them ever since. Brutal groovy and crisp. Especially for 3 piece god damn.
Proof Maryland has some of the coolest people and musicians to make music. Laid back and humble.
Yes we do with the exception of the hip hop community. Baltimore has a major issue with murders and shit making us look bad. Turnstile have very cool and laid back members. They're very humble as well.
I just wanna name drop Soils of Fate here, because why not!
Awesome video, nothing but respect for DF!
Death metal legends with a vocalist wearing a Dokken shirt. Love it. Can't wait for the new album.
So much respect for these guys
Waoo great podcast, it's awesome that you can bring in all these fantastic artists.
Brilliant, really enjoyed that!
they bring all the moshers together and their shows are guaranteed to start spin kick vs. push mosh beef. it's amazing
It's all metal at the end of the day, so let's fuck it up together.
brutality!!!
That mix of death metal and hardcore brings all the clashes together at their shows xD
im 40 but I side with the HC kids, cuz push moshing is for weak asses😅 been in punk, metal n HC scenes since the 90s ive always had the most fun at skate punk shows as a youth amd at more "core" shows as an adult
Can't wait for the new album! 🤘🏽
New drinking game. Do a shot everytime John says "You know"
These dudes are awesome. Great chat. Dying Fetus for life.
Gallagher wearing Dokkens Tooth and Nail?! Fuck yeah !
Never thought I would see Stryper in a Dying Fetus interview haha
Trey Williams one of the best
That's an ep for the ages, can't wait to watch!
Hell yes, how did I miss this one!? Feast Of Ashes is definitely one of my favorite songs of the year so far, DF absolutely killed it on the new album! 🤘
This is awesome man I’ve been wanting an interview like this from df forever
holy shit it’s been 22 years since that bust up w jason netherton around the time of the 2001 new england hardcore and metal festival - i was a freshman in high school, feels like yesterday but now i am old 😪
On the blast beat topic, I'm pretty sure S.O.D. was first as Speak English or Die came out in 1985, Nuclear Assault "Hang the Pope" was 1986 and Napalm Death "Scum" was 1987.
Also the guitar tone on MTBFD is goddamn perfect!
So glad I got to talk to these guys!!!!
I'm so glad I saw them at Anaheim (along with Aborted and Suicide Silence)
. I thought I was going to die during Subjected to a Beating 😆
i was there too shit was brutal
One of the OGs of Death Metal and one of my absolute favorite bands: I can't wait for the new album! All three singles thus far have been outstanding!
Thanks for the interview!
Saw Dying Fetus live for first time this last year in St Pete, absolute great show and some super humble and appreciative dudes for sure. Am a fan for sure!
I saw these guys at MMF and they absolutely crushed. Amazing band.
Thanks Garza for signing my vest.
dudes are so humble for being some of the best i can think of
Absolute legends. 💯 wearing your shirt as we speak. Long time fan here! Thank you!!
ive noticed johns always been humble throughout the years in his interviews. he just wants to keep focused on making music he love's to write and if anyone else loves it thats great type deal. but we all know johns a beast on the guitar and vocals.
John is wearing a Dokken shirt. That is straight 🔥🔥🔥
Another great episode! LOVE Dying Fetus. Gotta get you on The Game Junction Podcast sometime Garza and talk music!
Grotesque Impalement is still one of my favorite metal tracks, love it when it shows up on my rotation. It has aged VERY well.
What a great gift this podcast.
Keep supporting metal y'all 🤘🏾
This is as brutal as ever. 🤘
sick episode, love Dying Fetus!
Trey Williams. My biggest influence in my drumming. John, Sean and Trey, greatest trio of all time.
Awesome interview! Tightest 3 piece ever!
18:53 i was obsessed with this exact riff for years
The latest album is such an amazing record! I chose it as my favorite music album (of everything) for 2023 and I am never disappointed. I do feel that the reviews (while most have been quite positive) miss how good it is. Not only should it be seen as a highwater mark (up to now) for the band, but I think it did some stuff I really never hear in Death Metal, and I appreciate that. Also, I liked when the guys talked about being humble on this interview and again, I appreciate that sentiment! Whenever we, as humans, let our ego dominate our every action, that is recipe to fall on our faces in shame eventually. You guys fucking rock! 2023 was a great year for heavy metal and yet, I find myself listening to Make Them Beg For Death all the time, months on end. Frozen Soul and Suffocation and Cattle Decapitation and Cannibal Corpse had tremendous records last year and yet, Dying Fetus is right up there with Bloodbath and Carcass and Nile, vying for my favorite Death Metal act. Please continue in this vein gentlemen because it is so damn interesting, and I love variety in my music. \m/ \m/
Such a good episode of South Park to.
Been to a festival when a friends band got that same reaction.
thanks for that, good talk to listen too
One of the Greatest to EVER do IT. Nothing but respect and gratitude Garza.
Thanks for posting! First song I heard from them was Forced Elimination. I was blown the f*ck away. Truly, a very special band. 🤘💀
I saw dying fetus at Milwaukee metal fest in May, they were fucking awesome. I think i saw you there too Chris lol
Dying Fetus and Pantera and Deftones . Any time these bands are near me it’s a must .
This video is like a rare gem
this was awesome!!!!
I was so happy to come across this. Fetus one of my favorites. They brought up Sepultura. It's awesome to just see them. I'll see them 11/11 in Minneapolis!! Can't wait.
I helped build the fire sprinkler system at sweetwater back in 2007. That was my only contribution to society.
I met Chris at the Agora in Cleveland Ohio in April 2023.. such a cool guy.. so sweet.... All the guys in the band are so down to earth..can't wait to see them again on tour🤘🏻🖤🤘🏻
CLEVO REPRESENT 216, 440, 330!
I been going to punk n metal n HC shows at the Agora since the mid 90s.... Euclid Tavern, The Odeon, Peabodys, Phantasy Theater, Grog Shop, so many legendary shows dude😢 now im 40 and moshing hurts but I still do it 4 the right bands 😅
Great interview
