#393: Hannes Grossmann (Alkaloid, ex-Obscura)

Prolific death metal drummer and multi-instrumentalist Hannes
Grossmann is our guest! We discuss the recruitment process for his
latest solo album, To Where The Light Retreats, the role he takes
on as composer for his own material, how Tori Amos inspired a song
on the new record, the story behind the hand-drawn cover artwork,
how the songs on his first solo album were originally intended for
Obscura, the less experimental nature of his solo project compared
to Alkaloid, and the elitist mentality he takes towards his own
music. Hannes also says he hopes there will never be another
Necrophagist record and explains why. Petar, Brandon, and Jozalyn
discuss Wes Borland’s statement on Fred Durst’s high standards for
the next Limp Bizkit record, the official reunion of Shadows Fall,
and our thoughts on the next NWOAHM bands to reunite. Thank you to
our sponsor, Metal Blade Records, for their continued support!
Songs: Hannes Grossmann - “The Great Designer" and “In The
