We were lucky enough to grab some backstage time with Claudio Sanchez–guitarist, lyricist, author, and principal songwriter for Coheed and Cambria and The Prize Fighter Inferno–while he was in Naarm/Melbourne to headline the inaugural run of the recent Monolith Festival.
Claudio chats to us about returning Down Under, the narrative tension between his overarching Amory Wars sci-fi concept storyline and real-life events, capturing the spark of inspiration while fighting against imposter syndrome, and answering questions from an unofficial (and on-the-spot) Reddit AMA thanks to the eager fans of r/TheFence.

With their return Down Under just weeks away, as part of 2024’s incredibly stacked Good Things lineup (Dec 6th-8th), Mastodon guitarist Bill Kelliher joins the show from the comfort of his basement studio to catch us up to date on the band’s busy schedule.
We discuss their recent Ashes of the Leviathan tour run with Lamb of God, celebrating seminal records in their respective catalogues, while also collaborating on a new single. Bill reflects on the release of 2021’s Hushed and Grim double LP, dissects his creative process, and reveals his not-so-secret vault of dormant riffs.

For Perth metalcore juggernaut Make The Suffer, their self-titled fifth album (out November 8th through Greyscale & SharpTone Records) represents a clear reaffirmation of their sonic intent through unrelenting, genre-bending heaviness.
Frontman Sean Harmanis joins the show to chat about touring outside the Western comfort zone, the group’s continued evolution, his creative dynamism with new member, keyboardist, and vocalist Alex Reade, and how the pressure of expectation yielded a daring new chapter in the band’s journey.

For the remaining members of post-hardcore powerhouse Planes Mistaken For Stars, their long-awaited fifth studio album will forever be an open wound. Completed in the wake of not one but two founding members passing away—guitarist/vocalist Matt Bellinger (2017) and frontman/guitarist Gared O’Donnell (2021)— ‘Do You Still Love Me?’ (out November 1st through Deathwish Inc.) is a howling cry of catharsis pitched into the great beyond.
And yet, despite the palpable sense of grief and loss that hangs tenuously over the record’s diverse tracklist, glimmers of hope and communion peak through the darkness with the promise of a brighter tomorrow. We’re joined by Chuck French (guitar) and Mike Ricketts (drums) to talk about the enormous task of shaping these songs into not just a tribute to their dear friends, but also a record worthy of the band’s formidable legacy. "We ride to fight. Thunder in the night forever."

🔥Here’s our brief chat with Fit For An Autopsy frontman and ecstatic dog dad Joe Badolato 🔥
The New Jersey metaller’s seventh studio album, ‘The Nothing That Is’ (out on October 25th through Nuclear Blast/Human Warfare), is an existential battering ram that takes aim at geopolitics, social decay, environmental collapse, and the crushing despair at the heart of human existence.
Joe chats with us about his good boy Bruce, finding joy in the recording process, authenticity in performance, filling in for Lamb of God (!), and much more.

This week we’re joined by Monica Strut, music journalist and frontwoman for “cyber-pop metalcore” outfit The Last Martyr. The group are gearing up to release their new EP, ‘Requiem’ (out independently on October 23rd), which follows a period of creative renewal for the Naarm/Melbourne quartet and a reaffirmation of their dark sonic intent. Monica chats about reflecting on rejection, finding collective solidarity and strength in her bandmates, and using narrative metaphors to emphasise dystopian lyricism.

🔥Here’s our brief chat with fellow podcaster, label head, frontman, record store guy, and all-round legend Jeremy Bolm of post-hardcore staples Touché Amoré🔥
The Cali group are gearing up to release their sixth full-length album, ‘Spiral In A Straight Line’ (out on October 11th via Rise Records/BMG), which is also their second collaboration with famed producer Ross Robinson (Korn, Limp Bizkit, Sepultura) following 2020’s critically acclaimed ‘Lament’.
Jeremy pulls zero punches in our chat, as he delves into the universality of grief, anxiety, the idea of legacy, and growing older.

⚒️ It’s another busy week on the tools, so we get stuck right into the business at hand. Owen briefly forgets how time works, and Paige sacrifices the pod at the altar of Beyoncé. We cover post-hardcore from Sheffield, moshy death metal from Tokyo, and indie-punk storytelling from Naarm/Melbourne. Plus much, much more. Let’s go! 🔀

After landing some backstage time during their recent show at The Forum in Naarm/Melbourne, we’re joined by Jesse Barnett of Stick To Your Guns and Ways Away to chat about the upcoming eighth full-length album from the Cali hardcore powerhouse, ‘Keep Planting Flowers’ (out January 10th through SharpTone Records).
Proving that he’s one of the most insightful and passionate frontmen in hardcore today, Jesse gives us the lowdown on the need for collective solidarity, using music to speak to revolutionary struggle, his work and community outreach with All Power Books, the inherent dangers of tribalism, and how to stay hopeful in the face of seemingly endless nihilism.

This week we’re joined by fellow podcaster and Balance And Composure vocalist/guitarist Jon Simmons, who returns to the show to discuss the group’s highly anticipated comeback LP, ‘with you in spirit’. On their fourth studio album and first in eight years, B&C offer up a spectral synthesis of all that came before, presenting ten self-assured songs that are both haunted by their collective past and eerily fixated on the allure of the group’s newfound potential. Jon opens up about his journey of self-reflection, holding himself to account, and using vulnerability to shape the band’s most direct and urgent material to date.

Owen and Paige are strictly business this week for another cracking lineup of alternative tunes. We keep things Down Under with pop essentialism, experimental death metal, flexing hardcore, and bright horn-filled indie rock. Then on the global front, we’ve got football breakdowns, noise rock meltdowns, and the existential folk horror of interdimensional cosmic messages. It’s all here, folks. So dive right in.
