#286: Amy Sciarretto (Atom Splitter PR, ex-Roadrunner Records)

This week we talk to Amy Sciarretto of Atom Spiltter PR. Amy tells
us about how she got into the music industry and her time at
Roadrunner Records, if click bait media helps or hurts her artists,
the difficulty of doing damage control, the importance of bands
having a mystique, if gimmicks are necessary for modern bands to
reach a certain stage, how working in the industry has affected her
love for music, the difficulty of working an eight hour day, and
what her dog Higgins taught her that no human ever has. Petar,
Brandon, and Jozalyn discuss ex-Slipknot percussionist Chris Fehn's
claim that he was a hired hand. Next we address a Canadian
listener's concern that The MetalSucks Podcast doesn't give his
country any love, and we shine a spotlight on some of our favorite
Canadian bands.  Songs: Neil Merryweather-  “Star Rider”
Woods of Ypres - “Everything I Touch Turns to Gold (And Then To
Coal)” Dead Quiet - “Spiritual Abuse” Beyond Creation - “Algorythm”
