Welcome to this weeks episode of The Heavy Metal History Podcast. Joining Dustin and Matt is an aussie Comic Book writer Mike Speakman. Mike is the creator of a couple indie comic books such as "Carmen" and "Spacecopz."
Dustin and Matt wanted to have a creator on the show to really delve into how heavy metal has roots in other forms of art as a form of inspiration and comic books are just that thing! Mike talks about his roots of metal, growing up in the era of illegally downloading music and filesharing and all the aussie festivals and shows he went to. We share our undying mutual love for The Dillinger Escape Plan and the rest is history!

Welcome to this weeks episode of Heavy Metal History. My guest is lead vocalist Mike Paparo of the band Inter Arma. Mike came on the podcast to discuss the new album “Sulphur English” to be released this April the 12th through Relapse records. Mike and I discussed the new direction of the album and how the band manages to defy what critics and fans alike expect from them, and with “Sulphur English” it is no different, its a genuine juxtaposition to the band previous album “Paradise Gallows” and yet the two albums seem equally as cohesive. Mike takes us through his writing process and what authors inspire him as well as what he reads to get inspired. Thanks for listening!
