#470 - Donald Tardy (Obituary)

appy New Year, everyone! We're back with a bang and starting off
2023 with none other than Obituary’s Donald Tardy! He joins us at
the perfect time, as the band is set to release its first record in
six years, The Dying of Everything. With that in mind, we discussed
how having their own studio since 2007 has changed how the create
music, what sport always gets in the way of progress in the studio,
as well as the emotions he felt after playing his first show
post-pandemic. We also get around to chatting abOut his experience
recently touring North America with Amon Amarth, why the album's
release window is perfect for the band, and why the new album's
lead single, “The Wrong Time,” was a perfect track in so many ways.
Petar, Jozalyn, and Sylvia discuss Dee Snider’s debate about great
frontman versus great performers, Rolling Stones misguided attempt
at naming the 200 greatest singers, and John Dolmayan’s comments
about SOAD in hindsight should have considered getting rid of Serj
Tankian in 2006. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
