Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Metal on Metal - The Great Sabatini "Matterhorn"
Q: How did the relationship with Nolist Records come about and how important has that been for you?
Sean explains that meeting Lee from Nolist started with a delayed shipment incident, which led to a genuine friendship and a collaborative relationship. Lee eventually offered to put out a record, and the Winnipeg/Montreal scene connections helped shape the collaboration and choice of a local mixer, contributing to a supportive, community-focused distribution path for Sabatini.
Metal on Metal - See You Next Tuesday + Chop X7 "Brothers"
Q: What advice would you give your younger self about playing in bands and writing songs?
Drew reflects on learning from past mistakes, emphasizing the importance of financial responsibility within bands, while ChopX7 emphasizes not worrying about listener reception too much and focusing on making music that feels fun and authentic rather than driven by career pressures.
Metal on Metal - See You Next Tuesday + Chop X7 "Brothers"
Q: Is there a type of music growing up that you didn't like but can appreciate now?
Chop explains his later appreciation for ska, citing bands that bridged ska with metalcore and punk influences, and how those genres opened him up to new rhythmic and melodic concepts that inform his current music.
Metal on Metal - Pallbearer "Foundations of Burden"
Q: When did Wake come into your life, and if you were to pick a Wake record to recommend, what would it be?
Rowland describes Wake as foundational to Pallbearer's identity and recommends 'If you walk before you crawl, you crawl before you die' as a pivotal Wake record that influenced their approach to heavy, melodic doom.
Metal on Metal - Cell Press "Tabula Rasa"
Q: What inspired Tabula Rasa and its quick turnaround?
Mark McGee describes the EP as a natural evolution, noting the songs were recorded earlier but the mixing and writing process took time, with the band feeling overdue for new material and welcoming Tristan into the lineup to help shape it.
