#352: Kataklysm's Maurizio Iacono

Kataklysm frontman Maurizio Iacono is our guest this week. We
discuss the band's latest album, Unconquered, how anxiety has
driven his career and having to readjust during this time, how
delaying releasing a record right now is not “metal," and whether
he plans to start writing a new album right away because the band
can't tour. Iacono also discusses how his job as a booking agent
has been reinvented because of Covid-19, living in the middle of
the road politically and the backlash that occurs because of it,
why cancel culture might be necessary for us to understand each
other, and how we can’t educate each other anymore because of
misinformation from the media. Petar, Brandon, and Sylvia break
down how the Chris Cornell statue and the entire year of 2020 are
like oil and water in light of the recent vandalization, Fred Durst
stating that he and the boys of Limp Bizkit were never friends, and
Corey Taylor almost joining Anthrax. Songs: Kataklysm - “The
Killshot," Hinayana - “Cold Conception" (Featuring the late Nature
Ganganbaigal of Tengger Cavalry) Learn more about your ad choices.
