In the latest episode of the You Make The Scene podcast, I had a great conversation with Salem Vex, the creative mind behind the band CRUCIFICTION. We covered a wide range of topics, starting with his transition from his previous band/project, Bloodbather, to this fresh and exciting venture with CRUCIFICTION. Salem shared the challenges and the excitement of stepping into a new chapter and how that has influenced the writing and sound for CRUCIFICTION’s upcoming album, "Will To Power", which is set to release on October 11th via Rise Records.
A key highlight of our conversation was Salem’s unique approach to crafting conceptual albums. He discussed how he begins writing in the middle of the story, allowing the natural progression to lead him toward both the beginning and the end. This unconventional method not only brings a dynamic structure to the album but also adds a cinematic, non-linear arc to the overall narrative. Salem gave us a deeper look into the themes and emotional depth of "Will To Power", offering insight into the album's powerful message and what fans can expect from this new chapter of his artistic journey.
We also explored the intricacies of songwriting, the importance of authenticity in his music, and the transition into this new project after Bloodbather. There’s so much more packed into this episode, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in the creative process, conceptual music, and the evolution of an artist. Don’t miss this fascinating episode filled with passion, creativity, and the stories behind CRUCIFICTION!

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
