Welcome to Episode 5 of the Face Ripper Records Podcast! This episode is a reaction to a band I have a long history with and a massive amount of respect for: the incredible Where The Children Play. After a long hiatus (for both of us!), frontman Alex and the band are back with a new lineup, a new sound, and a new level of intensity. In this episode, I'm reacting to their blistering July 4th single, "Manufactured Regicide."
Referencing my past interview with Alex, I touch on the difficult journey that has led to this powerful return. Join me for a deep dive into a track that is technically brilliant, brutally aggressive, and a testament to the band's perseverance.
