#420: Shadow of Intent's Chris Wiseman

Shadow of Intent guitarist Chris Wiseman is our guest this week! We
discuss their brand new album, Elegy, his lyrical approach to the
record, and how he got Chuck Billy and Phil Bozeman as guests. We
also talk about postponing their European tour due to rising Covid
cases, what they learned on their recent U.S. tour with Born Of
Osiris, the big spectrum of how headlining bands set rules for
modern touring, the pros and cons of self-releasing the band's
music, why signing to a label feels like “giving up," and his plans
to release different versions of Elegy. Petar and Brandon tackle
Avenged Sevenfold singer M. Shadows' comments that the band's new
album was “very influenced by Kanye West”, their thoughts on the
latest reboot of Beavis and Butt-Head, and the viral video
featuring children who don't know any songs by the bands on the
shirts they're wearing. Thank you to our sponsor, Metal Blade
Records, for their continued support! Songs: Shadow Of Intent -
“Where Millions have Come to Die” (featuring Phil Bozeman of
Whitechapel) and “From Ruin… We Rise” Learn more about your ad
