#398: Make Them Suffer's Booka Nile

Booka Nile from Make Them Suffer is our guest this week! We discuss
their latest single, "Contraband," how the collaboration with
Spiritbox's Courtney LaPlante came together; the current state of
COVID in her native Australia, and the mental health issues that
come with the pandemic; our strong sense of community across the
heavy metal scene; not being able to perform any of the songs off
their latest album live yet; her participation in the reality TV
show Married at First Sight, and the difficulty of having a
relationship as a touring musician; and the current plans for the
next album from Make Them Suffer. Petar, Brandon, and Jozalyn also
tackle the tragic news that Slipknot's Joey Jordison, ZZ Top's
Dusty Hill, and Metal Church's Mike Howe have all passed
away.  Thank you to our sponsor, Metal Blade Records, for
their continued support! Songs: Make Them Suffer - "Contraband"
