#292: Cynic's Paul Masvidal

Paul Masvidal is our guest this week. We discuss his journey to the
solo project simply titled Masvidal, how he needed to rediscover
his identify for presenting music to the world after the recent
chaos in the Cynic camp, the visual collaborations that are part of
the new project, and his obligation to bring something true to the
table when creating art. We also talk about the status of the next
Cynic record, how the business side can affect the art of making
music, his experience doing the Death to All tours, and how the
songs he created with Death and Cynic eventually come to belong to
the fans to keep the music alive. Petar and Brandon tackle some of
the more political stories of the week including YouTube’s decision
to shut down Varg Vikernes's hate-filled channel and David
Draiman’s opinions on bands refusing to perform in Israel. Songs:
Masvidal - “Into The War," Masvidal - “Parasite," Cynic -
“Humanoid” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
