Speaker 1 (00:04):
It was one on.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Guys, it's Kevin from the Kevin Bell Podcast. I'm here
with Devin Brom. Let's see if I go to Zenguis,
who's already mess it up? Sanguis, who's a bob?
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Plus you got you gotta pronounce the chi all right,
skip do give it to me? Uh Sangui suga bob.
You're singua suga bar.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Okay, that's how you said. He did it right. I didn't.
That's okay. You guys can do it right at home.
What's going on today? You're in louder in life. But
you guys have the new album, The Hideous and Aftermath
coming out.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Tell me about this.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
You guys had consistent albums twenty twenty one, twenty twenty three,
now twenty twenty five. What's been the biggest difference each time?
Do you guys do different approaches with albums, different writing styles,
ending at all?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Yeah, I mean we approached every album differently, of course,
Like you know, the first point in twenty twenty one,
it was a pretty different lineup.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
You know, we had our original guitar player.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
It's a part of the band, like thirty of it,
and then you know, now it's been like the most
consistent lineup we've had four friends, and it's cool because
we like known each other for so long. You know,
the first record with that lineup in twenty twenty three,
it was it was more so like not trying to
rewrite anything, but show people that he even with a
(01:21):
new group of members, like you can handle, you can
still deliver music that's like just as brutal, just sick,
really stoked on that record. With this one, I think,
I think the last record, you know, like try to
like kind of push the envelope and show people like
the little taste of like bands that influences us and music.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
That influences us, like our own spin on it.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
And then like this record you can want to take
that envelope and just throw it. Try to just show
like music that actually just comes from us and not
you know or so like hey, this sounds like this.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
You know this sounds like that. And so it's been cool.
You know, we were self produced, like everything help leading
to this point.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
To have like an engineer and like an extra year
to tell us like, you know, your ideas are cool.
It was awesome because otherwise we would have just like
you know, rehashed a bunch of stuff, rewrite a bunch
of stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
It would have it wouldn't have gotten done.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
And who was this producer Kurt Bolt Love Converge.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Yeah, yeah, we're all huge purchase. Now.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
You guys played at Sonic Temple earlier this year, correct, Yeah,
and we watched you and it sounded amazing and man,
you guys have a kill or sound live. So with that,
how do you approach festivals like this? How do you
get in the headspace? What's different from like a club
show to a festival.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Cool coolest thing about the festivals is like it's people
from all walks of life. Yeah, so like you have
you have your people that strictly only listen to bands
that they hear on the radio or that they hear
like on some like online app it's like mostly like
you know, commercialized like music, and like that's that's fine.
(03:09):
But if you can if you can win them, if
you can get them in the pit and stuff, that's
really cool.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Nic.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Also, another cool thing about festivals, it's just so many people.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Yeah, and it's just like it's really hard to.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Get staged right when you just you just have one
mode you have to do it.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
You can't back out.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
So it's like you might as well just like goat
balls to the wall and like take your personality up
like another century set.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Okay, show out for them.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So there are fans who watch and listen to this,
but there's also musicians who watch and listen to this,
So put me put us in your shoes of Okay,
this is our first festival and this isn't but let's
just say it is. How do you approach that differently?
Anything at all? What was your experience hitting a festival?
The size of in cars on a temple, lower in life?
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Anything.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
I would just you know, try to take what you
would normally do, like if you were playing on the
floor or just playing like a two hundred cap room,
and just take it up like some more notches. But
you know, you also got to be afraid of that
in some kind of way because like our shows do
get pretty rowdy, and if you don't want someone to
(04:25):
like crack their head on on pavement, right, all kinds
of stuff. So it's like, man, I talk a lot
of you know, it can be cursed. Yeah, we talk
a lot of shit, like on stage and stuff. So
it's like I could say that and you know, most
people would get it, but there's probably a bunch of
people who are like, hey, that's not nice, you know, right,
(04:46):
or you're a douche and it's like it's like whatever,
it's all it's all in good fun. So it's different.
It's different waters that you have to approach. But I
think once you get the nerves shook out of you
and you're a song or.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Too deep in the set, and it just it comes
like it its fluid. It's just all natural.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Now, how about working with staff at festivals such as this,
You guys are gonna be on a tight deadline. Yeah,
this amount of time you set up aforehand, what's going
on backstage?
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Oh man, this shit's easy because like yeah, yeah, Luckily,
like we're in a country that has stage in US,
you know, and like cool people that like load stuff
and set up stuff for you, and they're there to
help and they're.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Like so stoked to help you. And it's like we
really don't have to lift much of a finger in
like okay, like catering's just over there. You know.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
They feed us and we get to hang out, kick it,
kick it with bands that we look up to, kicking
with all these that's like the that's like.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
One of the birds, you know. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Yeah, and it's like it's cool because like it's most
of the stage, you know, everyone that's like in that
kind of realm of work. They're music fings, So run
into a lot of fans like that are there for work, take.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Pictures with them the head.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Yeah, maybe smoke a joint, that's fine, but yeah, it
was awesome.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Well, I'm glad that Danny Women Presents helps make you
guys feel at home. I talked to a lot of
different bands across the festivals and they always say like
it's one of the best, if not the best. So
I'm glad I could just continue as the trend there. Now,
you guys don't really get a break after this because
you've got the Spies Icons work coming up, right, correct,
So tell me about that. I'm guessing Spies Icon. You
(06:24):
looked up to them a little bit going into you know,
two thousands, and they got a new record coming out too,
when yeah, fuck, there's two singles they put out are fantastic.
What are you most excited to do touring with those
guys and the others on the on the bill?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yeah, man, it's it's really cool to be you know,
like taking out a van that.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I was obsessing over as a you.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Know when I was first getting into heavy music, and
you know, seeing them a bunch never would have thought
like back then, I used to just think, like many
be cool one day.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Right to play a show with it. Now we're like.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Gonna be road dogs together and it's cool, dude. Like
I actually got to shoot the ship with them when
they were on their tour with Diane Fetus and The
Acacia Strain, and they're all really chill and they know
their stuff. Because I mean, I'm like one of those
like I'm I'm the death metal doork man, Like I
listened literally to the same bands out all the time,
(07:22):
and it's like I'm really so picky about new bands
and they are too. Like a lot of these people
that have been in bands for so long, especially when
it's heavy music, they're purest of the genre and those
guys stand at that as well. And then another you know,
torn with Defeated Sanity's like it's a really big deal
for me personally because you know, like my old band,
(07:44):
our first show that we ever played is opening up
for them, and they're so kick ass and I want
I want to like bring them around crowds that have
never been exposed to them before and like give them.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Like their their spotlight and then uh, quart smile.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Man.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
They're they're a young group, but they're uh, they're really
killing it and like we got a bunch of cool
support bands. Actually it was able to talk to guys
and end to playing our Chicago Yeah, I mean like
I got I got their logo Attacho, Like yeah, so
it's it's a really big deal for me, and you know,
and it's cool like to do that and push it
(08:23):
and pushing the new record at the same time and
open up.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
You know.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Next year it's gonna be uh another like really crazy
busy year for.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
This busy but busy good. Yeah. Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
It kind of gets boring when you're on doing anything
and you're like, shit, I gotta get back to the
real world.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
And yeah, I mean this year was like our most
chill year in like, you know, four years.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Yeah, and I mean we kind of needed it.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Like I got I got married back in April and
Congress Pace man like you know, said wants to hang
out with his daughter and you know, Cody's like moving
and all all kinds of stuff. So it's been definitely
like you know, growing up and doing this for so
long enough until this point it's like you do appreciate.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
The time homemore, but if I am home more than
a week just doing the home stuff, I'm like, what
am I doing? Going crazy?
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah, so it'll be there's leaves on the ground, but
I was like, I better most some lawns or get
off my ass.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I feel as a vocalist, what do you do to
warm up pre show?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
No, really, I like to go to the I like
to go to the gym before you play, and then
I'll listen like I you know, I put our set
list together on my phone, have it in my ears,
you know, like a couple of minutes before we go on,
I'll just like go over a couple of bars and
just see if my voice is like warmed up. But okay,
you know, because it's crazy because like rehearsals, it'll be like, man,
(09:46):
am I sounding like this?
Speaker 1 (09:47):
And then I'm like, I'm like, shit, I haven't done
vocals in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
And then it somehow, dude, like I think it's the
you know, just anticipation and you're just out there that
you're just able to push yourself even further and further.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
It's it's it's like the adrenaline.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Yeah yeah, so yeah, man, Like I'll just go over
a couple of bars, get a good like you know,
work out, get the dwarf and swarmed up and do
some cardio and then uh yeah, I belt it out
and if if I sound like shit, then I'll just
like beat myself up about it for a week.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
So we talked about working out. I like lifting. People
that watch us like lifting. What's a split?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
The split right now is it's like it's usually like
a primary antagonist. So it's like if I if I'm
gonna hit chest, I'm gonna hit back. But it's weird.
It's yeah, right now, it's actually a chest and buys.
And then it's I do a quad day, quad heavy
day for legs and then I'll hit full legs like
(10:48):
later in the league, I'll do shoulders, and then I'll
do four arms and shoulders, I'll do tries them back.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
And then a full leg day.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And then like every day, I like brinkle in like
you know, twelve percent incline on the treadmill. You go
to at least it's like four point six miles per hour.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
See he's ready for LOWERD in life twelve incline.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Damn yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Man, Dad, I've been trying to hit it heavy, like
especially now I'm like I'm on my macros are like
anywhere between four to forty four hundred calories a day.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Whoa, yeah if I'm doing cardio.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
If I'm doing cardio, I'll push it the three hundred
and sixty carbs and then yeah protein anywhere between two twenty.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Five and two fifty. Wow, Yeah, amazing.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I gotta step it up.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
You too.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Everyone has a step off trying to get up to
two fifty.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
So well, my man.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
So with twenty twenty six on the rise of You
Got the new album, You Got the.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Tour coming up?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Any plans for twenty twenty six that you can talk about, guess?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
And no, okay, uh, definitely doing a really cool support
tour that I can't I can't wait to tell people.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Oka.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
But it is with the band that not only is
like huge in my eyes, but they it's also a band.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Like you don't really expect but I have. I saw
Cannibal Corpse years ago, so it makes sense.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
And then it's like a seven week run and up
doing a lot of overseas shows again going back to
Australia in the summer. Yeah, in the summer this time,
So I think that's like they're like fall or winter,
but perfect time.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Yeah, either way, you don't want to die full over there.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Yeah, and then yeah, I think like another headliner at
the end of the year, doing Europe twice. So yeah,
I mean one of the European sources confirmed Fulk Cheap
you know who just played on the main stage. They up,
they're on the tour with us, and that band's great.
From the moment I heard them, I was like, we
got to do something with them. So finally coming together
(12:51):
on that it's gonna be sick awesome.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Is there any kind of advice you would share to
any newer band, whether they want a tour or be
on a fast forwar or anything at all.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Yeah, and definitely, you know, don't give up, take a
look at the waters, like honestly a don't don't be
a clone of like everything that's popular, because we came
up at a time that, like death metal was still
extremely underground, and so we we never really had any
expectations for you.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
So for us.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Be where we're at now, even being where we were
at just a few years ago, it's it's nothing short
of a blessing. You know, stay humble and remember when
you're doing this, like as much as it is work,
you have to prioritize, like if you're on tour, prioritize
being a tourist. Go see some cool stuff, like around
(13:40):
the citys that you're in, take it all in and
definitely stay bros with your people like you look at
I'm not talking like you look at a band like
you look at a band like Mega Death. Okay, how
many members have Mega Death had?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Like so many and.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
They are maybe I'm wrong, And if they come at me,
I'm sorry. They get hired, hit their jobs and perform
those parts in those songs those exactly, you know, whereas
the bros hang out stuff together, exactly. I see it
a lot. I'm not gonna say who, but I've seen
it a lot. Yeah, especially at the big festivals like this.
But Pros and Collins both said sure, money, family, friends
(14:24):
or whatever. Any final words you want to say to fans, Yeah, man, no, thank.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
You, you know, like, uh, you've definitely your undying support
is uh led me to do like really cool ship
and it's only because of you guys. You know the
biggest part of like making it. You know, his luck
and we're extremely lucky to have like such diehard fans off.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
So thank you, Devin. Appreciate a little bit of your
time today. Make sure you have going to be as well.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Make sure you check these guys out your protein, hit
the gym.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
I'm kidding, but.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
For real, checking guys that yes, off the carbs. Drink
water if you're at the festival, drink water. Can't express
that enough.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
It's gonna be really hot if you go.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Check out Kentucky Xpo.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
And you can check.
Speaker 2 (15:08):

Speaker 1 (00:14):
Plus you got you gotta pronounce the chi all right,
skip do give it to me? Uh Sangui suga bob.
You're singua suga bar.
Speaker 2 (00:21):

What's going on today? You're in louder in life. But
you guys have the new album, The Hideous and Aftermath
coming out.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Tell me about this.
Speaker 2 (00:32):

Yeah, and it's just like it's really hard to.

Get staged right when you just you just have one

Speaker 1 (03:28):
You can't back out.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
So it's like you might as well just like goat
balls to the wall and like take your personality up
like another century set.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Okay, show out for them.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So there are fans who watch and listen to this,
but there's also musicians who watch and listen to this,
So put me put us in your shoes of Okay,
this is our first festival and this isn't but let's

One of the birds, you know. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Yeah, and it's like it's cool because like it's most
of the stage, you know, everyone that's like in that
kind of realm of work. They're music fings, So run
into a lot of fans like that are there for work, take.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Pictures with them the head.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Yeah, maybe smoke a joint, that's fine, but yeah, it
was awesome.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Well, I'm glad that Danny Women Presents helps make you
guys feel at home. I talked to a lot of
different bands across the festivals and they always say like
it's one of the best, if not the best. So
I'm glad I could just continue as the trend there. Now,
you guys don't really get a break after this because
you've got the Spies Icons work coming up, right, correct,
So tell me about that. I'm guessing Spies Icon. You
(06:24):
looked up to them a little bit going into you know,
two thousands, and they got a new record coming out too,
when yeah, fuck, there's two singles they put out are fantastic.
What are you most excited to do touring with those
guys and the others on the on the bill?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yeah, man, it's it's really cool to be you know,
like taking out a van that.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I was obsessing over as a you.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Know when I was first getting into heavy music, and
you know, seeing them a bunch never would have thought
like back then, I used to just think, like many
be cool one day.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Right to play a show with it. Now we're like.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Gonna be road dogs together and it's cool, dude. Like
I actually got to shoot the ship with them when
they were on their tour with Diane Fetus and The
Acacia Strain, and they're all really chill and they know
their stuff. Because I mean, I'm like one of those
like I'm I'm the death metal doork man, Like I
listened literally to the same bands out all the time,
(07:22):
and it's like I'm really so picky about new bands
and they are too. Like a lot of these people
that have been in bands for so long, especially when
it's heavy music, they're purest of the genre and those
guys stand at that as well. And then another you know,
torn with Defeated Sanity's like it's a really big deal
for me personally because you know, like my old band,
(07:44):
our first show that we ever played is opening up
for them, and they're so kick ass and I want
I want to like bring them around crowds that have
never been exposed to them before and like give them.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Like their their spotlight and then uh, quart smile.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Man.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
They're they're a young group, but they're uh, they're really
killing it and like we got a bunch of cool
support bands. Actually it was able to talk to guys
and end to playing our Chicago Yeah, I mean like
I got I got their logo Attacho, Like yeah, so
it's it's a really big deal for me, and you know,
and it's cool like to do that and push it
(08:23):
and pushing the new record at the same time and
open up.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
You know.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Next year it's gonna be uh another like really crazy
busy year for.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
This busy but busy good. Yeah. Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
It kind of gets boring when you're on doing anything
and you're like, shit, I gotta get back to the
real world.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
And yeah, I mean this year was like our most
chill year in like, you know, four years.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Yeah, and I mean we kind of needed it.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Like I got I got married back in April and
Congress Pace man like you know, said wants to hang
out with his daughter and you know, Cody's like moving
and all all kinds of stuff. So it's been definitely
like you know, growing up and doing this for so
long enough until this point it's like you do appreciate.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
The time homemore, but if I am home more than
a week just doing the home stuff, I'm like, what
am I doing? Going crazy?
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Yeah, so it'll be there's leaves on the ground, but
I was like, I better most some lawns or get
off my ass.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I feel as a vocalist, what do you do to
warm up pre show?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
No, really, I like to go to the I like
to go to the gym before you play, and then
I'll listen like I you know, I put our set
list together on my phone, have it in my ears,
you know, like a couple of minutes before we go on,
I'll just like go over a couple of bars and
just see if my voice is like warmed up. But okay,
you know, because it's crazy because like rehearsals, it'll be like, man,
(09:46):
am I sounding like this?
Speaker 1 (09:47):
And then I'm like, I'm like, shit, I haven't done
vocals in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
And then it somehow, dude, like I think it's the
you know, just anticipation and you're just out there that
you're just able to push yourself even further and further.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
It's it's it's like the adrenaline.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Yeah yeah, so yeah, man, Like I'll just go over
a couple of bars, get a good like you know,
work out, get the dwarf and swarmed up and do
some cardio and then uh yeah, I belt it out
and if if I sound like shit, then I'll just
like beat myself up about it for a week.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
So we talked about working out. I like lifting. People
that watch us like lifting. What's a split?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
The split right now is it's like it's usually like
a primary antagonist. So it's like if I if I'm
gonna hit chest, I'm gonna hit back. But it's weird.
It's yeah, right now, it's actually a chest and buys.
And then it's I do a quad day, quad heavy
day for legs and then I'll hit full legs like
(10:48):
later in the league, I'll do shoulders, and then I'll
do four arms and shoulders, I'll do tries them back.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
And then a full leg day.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And then like every day, I like brinkle in like
you know, twelve percent incline on the treadmill. You go
to at least it's like four point six miles per hour.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
See he's ready for LOWERD in life twelve incline.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Damn yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Man, Dad, I've been trying to hit it heavy, like
especially now I'm like I'm on my macros are like
anywhere between four to forty four hundred calories a day.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Whoa, yeah if I'm doing cardio.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
If I'm doing cardio, I'll push it the three hundred
and sixty carbs and then yeah protein anywhere between two twenty.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Five and two fifty. Wow, Yeah, amazing.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I gotta step it up.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
You too.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Everyone has a step off trying to get up to
two fifty.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
So well, my man.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
So with twenty twenty six on the rise of You
Got the new album, You Got the.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Tour coming up?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Any plans for twenty twenty six that you can talk about, guess?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
And no, okay, uh, definitely doing a really cool support
tour that I can't I can't wait to tell people.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Oka.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
But it is with the band that not only is
like huge in my eyes, but they it's also a band.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Like you don't really expect but I have. I saw
Cannibal Corpse years ago, so it makes sense.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
And then it's like a seven week run and up
doing a lot of overseas shows again going back to
Australia in the summer. Yeah, in the summer this time,
So I think that's like they're like fall or winter,
but perfect time.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Yeah, either way, you don't want to die full over there.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Yeah, and then yeah, I think like another headliner at
the end of the year, doing Europe twice. So yeah,
I mean one of the European sources confirmed Fulk Cheap
you know who just played on the main stage. They up,
they're on the tour with us, and that band's great.
From the moment I heard them, I was like, we
got to do something with them. So finally coming together
(12:51):
on that it's gonna be sick awesome.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Is there any kind of advice you would share to
any newer band, whether they want a tour or be
on a fast forwar or anything at all.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Yeah, and definitely, you know, don't give up, take a
look at the waters, like honestly a don't don't be
a clone of like everything that's popular, because we came
up at a time that, like death metal was still
extremely underground, and so we we never really had any
expectations for you.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
So for us.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Be where we're at now, even being where we were
at just a few years ago, it's it's nothing short
of a blessing. You know, stay humble and remember when
you're doing this, like as much as it is work,
you have to prioritize, like if you're on tour, prioritize
being a tourist. Go see some cool stuff, like around
(13:40):
the citys that you're in, take it all in and
definitely stay bros with your people like you look at
I'm not talking like you look at a band like
you look at a band like Mega Death. Okay, how
many members have Mega Death had?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Like so many and.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
They are maybe I'm wrong, And if they come at me,
I'm sorry. They get hired, hit their jobs and perform
those parts in those songs those exactly, you know, whereas
the bros hang out stuff together, exactly. I see it
a lot. I'm not gonna say who, but I've seen
it a lot. Yeah, especially at the big festivals like this.
But Pros and Collins both said sure, money, family, friends
(14:24):
or whatever. Any final words you want to say to fans, Yeah, man, no, thank.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
You, you know, like, uh, you've definitely your undying support
is uh led me to do like really cool ship
and it's only because of you guys. You know the
biggest part of like making it. You know, his luck
and we're extremely lucky to have like such diehard fans off.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
So thank you, Devin. Appreciate a little bit of your
time today. Make sure you have going to be as well.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Make sure you check these guys out your protein, hit
the gym.
Speaker 1 (14:58):

water if you're at the festival, drink water. Can't express
that enough.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
It's gonna be really hot if you go.

Check out Kentucky Xpo.
