On this episode I'm joined by Hunter Young of Moodring.

We talk about their second album 'death fetish', how it bluntly confronts and opens up about his health complications, opting for a more nu-metal and industrial sound and look, plans for a covers album, his other projects (Psycho-Frame, Drowned Under Concrete), and more.

A new episode will be released every Thursday.
