#281: Allegaeon Guitarist Greg Burgess and Vocalist Riley McShane

Greg Burgess and Riley McShane of Allegaeon are our guests this
week. We discuss the making of the band's new album Apoptosis,
how the addition of bass player BooBoo Money (Brandon Michael)
changed the dynamic of the record, how Greg almost went the
classical guitar route before becoming a metal lifer, the lyrical
topic Riley wishes he could tackle for the band, which band member
put the kibosh on covering Armored Saint, the curse of Applebee’s
that has long haunted Allegaeon, and Riley's hot take on season
three of True Detective. Petar and Brandon hash through our
listeners' reactions to last week's discussion about EPs, Chris
Fehn's lawsuit against Slipknot, and Slayer and Primus potentially
making magic happen together on tour. Songs: Allegaeon - “Stellar
Tidal Disruption” Allegaeon - “Extremophiles (B)” Learn more about
