#547 - Gaerea

Gaerea are gearing up to make a major announcement and we are
excited to be a part of it! On this week's episode of The
MetalSucks Podcast, we have an interview with Gaerea to discuss the
band's next chapter, the release of their latest single “World
Ablaze,” and how it was liberating to put that song out into the
world. We also chat about the process that went into finding an
identity in the heavy metal world and fighting to make sure it's
not a toxic environment. Gaerea is nearing its 10th anniversary as
a band, so the conversation took a bit of an introspective turn as
we discuss how they want to continue making art, how they wish they
can have the artistic talent of drawing, and how they're being more
comfortable with the idea of letting some of the mystique of Gaerea
slide so they can connect with fans at live shows. Petar and Sylvia
discuss Serj Tankian’s indifference if System Of A Down continues
without him, Armored Saint vocalist John Bush giving Metallica
praise for taking chances in their career, Nikki Sixx responding to
criticism over Motlëy Crüe’s single “Dogs of War”, and Oxbow
breaking up in a way that just plain sucks. Song: Gaerea “World
Ablaze” Song: Wretched Blessing “Spurious Ovation” Song: Sugar
