It’s our final episode for 2024, and what better way to go out than with a Good Things Festival supercut featuring artist interviews and backstage shenanigans with Frank Turner, Northlane, Belle Haven, and Alpha Wolf.
We chat about their year highlights, the realities of touring, pushing the creative envelope, and how to best channel that all-important chaos energy.
Shout out to Frank, Marcus, David, Lochie and Mitch for coming on the show; to Janine, Tiana, Amy, Court, Sose and the Good Things crew for all their help on festival day.

For our final guest episode of 2024, we’re joined by Mitch Alexander, media personality, political activist, and vocalist for Naarm/Melbourne metallers Eye of the Enemy.
Mitch gives us the lowdown on the quintet’s new four-track concept EP, ‘Only Equals Negotiate,’ and how his fiery lyrics articulate the historical contingency and material dimensions of power, revolution, and collective action. We also chat about band indignities, the tension between performance and authenticity, his creative process, and why George R.R. Martin should just write the goddamn books already.

Returning Down Under for the first time in nearly a decade as part of 2024’s incredibly stacked Good Things lineup (Dec 6th-8th), Benny Horowitz, drummer for The Gaslight Anthem and co-host of the Going Off Track podcast, joins the show to chat about the band's comeback.
We discuss their recent international tour run for their seminal record, ‘The ‘59 Sound,’ hitting anniversary milestones for 2012’s ‘Handwritten’ and 2014’s ‘Get Hurt,’ reforming post-hiatus, consciously avoiding the nostalgia trap, and the creative potential for new music.

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.

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.
