Jerry LewandowskiHOST
Oh, I didn't really like them, but I know who they are.
Jake LuhrsGUEST
So, yeah, I don't think, I don't think at that time we were playing a bunch of shows, but the scene is that was definitely exploding.
Jake LuhrsGUEST
I mean, I, I think that, I think that we kind of caught the wave of, the rise, the beginning rise of the metalcore scene because, you know, bands like Hope's Fall, Norma Jean, Killswitch Engage, right? Like they were dropping these amazing albums that we hadn't heard before.
Jake LuhrsGUEST
you know um and and i think that you know and then under oath was out there and then we're out there and so we kind of yeah i kind of took part in this movement delaware's prada um and so we just wanted to tour as much as we possibly could because we wanted to we wanted to elevate ourselves to a point where we could have a career, you know?

Oh, um, Hymns of a Broken Man was the title.
PrestonHOST
What was the name of the...
Adam SpiessHOST
But I, uh, wanted to emphasize heavy metal, and so I think we are gonna go for a walk, and we're gonna go with Pantera as the winner of this one for me.
Adam SpiessHOST
Uh, I probably would've gone with Killswitch Engage.
Adam SpiessHOST
They're one of my absolute favorites right now.
Sekou BensonGUEST
Okay.
MutluHOST
It's not, uh...
MutluHOST
You know, there's a big difference between, I don't know, what Black Sabbath was doing and then Killswitch Engage, so those are-
Spike EskinHOST
Sure, yeah
MutluHOST
... and there's so much in between.
CadeGUEST
Oh, yeah, for sure.
CadeGUEST
So the very first one that really like pushed me into like, oh, I love screaming and like this chuggy stuff was Killswitch Engage.
CadeGUEST
That was the first band.
CadeGUEST
And then it got into like Asking Alexandria, Attack Attack of Mice and Men, Ocean's 8 Alaska, Miss May I was a huge influence on my earlier band.
Scott PenfoldHOST
Sleep When I'm Dead went to 16, Hellbound hit 18, and Gone Gone Gone went all the way to number six.
Scott PenfoldHOST
They've also got Howard Jones on the record, formerly of Killswitch Engage.

Scott PenfoldHOST

Chris AkinHOST
Sure.
Chris AkinHOST
Now, Eddie, will the show be featuring primarily the quote-unquote classics, or will you go into, like, your Killswitch Engage and newer type stuff, or what are you looking to do?
Eddie TrunkGUEST
No, it's definitely the classic core artist for a channel like VH1 Classic.
Eddie TrunkGUEST
It's predominantly 70s and 80s hard rock and metal artists, so it's very much suited and tailored to the demographic that is VH1 Classic.
Rob KarhukangasGUEST
I like the dynamic or juxtaposition between like the clean vocals and then the death growls.
Rob KarhukangasGUEST
You know, I love that stuff like Opeth and Kill Switch Engage.
Rob KarhukangasGUEST
You know, the clean vocals really get the death vocals going.
Rob KarhukangasGUEST
a lot more effect, makes it more effective.
