I watched your interview with Sophia and Jason and I loved it. You're a better interviewer than a lot of hired music journalists for places like vice and revolver. Anyone skimming these comments i absolutely recommend a viewing. I'm going to the screening tonight in Palm Springs with my wife and am hoping I get the chance to ask them about it during the Q&A – particularly Jason.

Saor sound groovy. Will definitely check them out.
Well, speaking for myself; glad you are doing your channel. This little bit each weekend is something I look forward to. 🤘🤘

Cult of Luna shoutout awesome. But that Annihilus Mundi album is nuts man. Need a seatbelt for all those turns and twists. That’s some solid music. Can’t wait to dig into Saor. Sounds like it’s an album I need right now. And just so you know, that thank you you threw out seemed really heartfelt and I for one am glad to be in this community you’ve got going on. Always good stuff! Keep it up man! You’re doing the lords work. Not sure which lord but it’s definitely their work! Haha

@heavymetalphilosophy thanks for another great video. I had no idea Hatebreed had a new album. Thanks for letting me know.

Trivium + In Flames tour in my area when?😢

Listened to that Carnifex last night, and it is HEAVY. Good times. Glad to see Hatebreed still kicking ass. They were my first intro to Hardcore a good 20+ years ago.
I bought the Annihilus Mundi record on Bandcamp yesterday, and I need to get the Hyperion, Midnight, and Underdark records. In fact, buying them right now while finishing the video. Thank you for costing me more money, bro. 🤘

As long as you didn't wake up naked in a field, ass up, and being used as a bike rack. This week, Mawiza 🇨🇱, We Came as Romans 🇺🇸, Hypno5e 🇫🇷, Future Static 🇦🇺 & Konvent 🇩🇰.

I just heard a new indie release that dropped yesterday which i think you may like: Penny Coffin – Transitory Fragmentation
Personally Im really digging it. It starts sounding just regular brutal death..
But quickly expands into soooooo much more

No. You're Breathtaking! Don't sleep on that new Hypno5e album. That last two songs of that album are an experience.

Saor is really good! One of the gems I found out through you! 🤘

Not even a mention of Hannes Grossmann's new album? I'm disappointed, Jon.
