Thursday Mar 25, 2021
Jon of Domestikwom is back for part two of our interview with him. In this chapter, he talks about bringing on friends and family on to sing and shred, finding the threads between his original work and his current music, sampling in The Princess Bride, why his artistic life doesn't meet up with what people expect and why that's perfectly fine, how his band name is a pun on his last name, appreciating listeners' observations of his art, and then a whole lot of poutine and Calgary Flames chatter.

Tipped off to us by previous podcast guest, Jeremy Hunt, Jon Michael is better known by his moniker, Domestikwom, his experimental doomy black metal project and part of the Philip K. Discs family. In the first of two parts, we dive into his Canadian upbringing, particularly his ancestors migration from Russia and how that impacted his music, as well as having friends who aren't into metal, when to step back in the metal debates, a mess of Devin Townsend talk, keeping line ups fresh and unique, that self-awareness is important, and how a tape from his grandfather helped birth an album.

Northern neighbors Seum (specifically, Montreal) are calling into this chapter of the diary. Piotr, Fred, and Gaspar talk about what it is like to be the most North American European band, the history of the French metal scene, catacomb shows, why they went bass only, that Slipknot might owe Acid Bath a little cred, doing a sludgy Prince cover, putting together their split with Fatima, and their pop-up album cover.

Chapter 67 - deathCAVE

Thursday Mar 04, 2021
Joining us for this week's chapter is a band definitely NOT from Portland, the mighty deathCAVE! Fronted by the fearless Freiburger along with guitarist Tony and drummer Benny, they talk about how punk ethos has worked its way into metal, not being afraid to take risks, have fun, and express their emotions, their extremely varied history of past bands (including a Hollywood butt rock band), how the Seattle scene challenges you as a musician, digital film, the Helm's Alee/Botch connection, their resident yeti, playing with every genre ever, southwestern metal, and the possibility of a deathCAVE trap metal album.

Track featured is "Last Breath" off Smoking Mountain, which was one of our favorite records of 2020
