The Endseeker EP was good. I also liked the album from Arrogant Destruktor and Red Vinter. Happy Father’s Day Jon

Happy Father's Day Jon. And to all the fathers that view the channel. No pressure… I'm working on a book on how we build a relationship to sound based on the visual aesthetics of an electric guitar. I'd like to talk with you more about this. Don't know if this will reach you, but I'm not social media connected. I'm a University Professor of Economics that focuses on culture and philosophy. Lifelong metal lover and I appreciate all you do. If you are interested reach out. Here's hoping…

Thank you. And take care of that voice, even with your usually gravel, it sounds hoarse as Hell. Plenty of lemon and ginger tea with honey.

I look forward to this video dropping every Saturday morning, man. I really dig your thoughts on music and you have introduced me to so many bands that wouldn't ordinarily come across my radar. So I appreciate your work, man. Thank you
