Welcome to Season 18! We’re excited to welcome back two of the most fearless voices in UK heavy music—vocalist Justine Jones and guitarist Sammy Urwin of Employed to Serve—for their second appearance on IUF. Over the last 14 years, the band has built a fierce reputation through relentless touring, standout performances at major festivals, and a discography that keeps pushing heavy music forward.
In this episode, we dive into the making of their latest album, Fallen Star—a bold and emotionally charged record that captures the band's evolution while staying rooted in the intensity they’re known for. Justine and Sammy open up about the writing and recording process, and how the themes behind the album reflect both personal and creative growth.
What’s always clear is the chemistry the two share—not just as bandmates, but as collaborators with a unified vision. That connection continues to be at the core of what makes Employed to Serve such a compelling presence in today’s metal landscape.
Fallen Star is available now worldwide via Spinefarm Records.
