#256: Aborted vocalist Sven de Caluwé

This week we speak with Aborted vocalist Sven de Caluwé about the
band's new album TerrorVision, including how the decision came
about to name it after the '80s thriller, how awful that film was,
how the title isn’t a direct reference to the movie but to the
state of the world today and the cheap scare tactics modern-day
horror films utilize. We also discuss how people often forget that
metal is supposed to be fun, how modern technology can cover up
mistakes and the negatives that brings, how Sven has always been a
big sucker for artwork, which recent band Aborted toured with whose
audience did not receive them well, his feelings about returning to
perform at the Bataclan in Paris after the tragedy at the Eagles of
Death Metal concert, and which children’s film would make a great
concept for a death metal album. Petar, Brandon, and Jozalyn
introduce a new school for air musicians, discuss Glen Benton vs.
Mormons, the "bad vibes" Ozzy Osbourne got from Black Sabbath, how
we would like to see Ozzy go out, and the Rebel Wizard shirt
Jozalyn must own. Songs: Aborted - “Terrorvision” Aborted -
