Ross Robinson

And you just deal with it.

And it wasn't... much different than any other record, you know, even, you know, when Sean would tell stories, you know, back, even when Ross Robinson produced them that, you know, they, they would seal off all the windows in the studio and him and Ross and Joe would be in there redoing shit and doing whatever they want to do, you know, to kicking everybody out of the studio, you know, so whatever, whatever they thought about how they were more separate on my album than Doesn't really add up a whole lot when you look at what they were telling me about the early records, you know.

But they still came in and had a blast.

I mean, I had a blast doing percussion with Sean.

City of Bois.

Produced by the godfather of nu metal himself, Ross Robinson, Iowa, named after the band's home state, has to be one of the darkest, heaviest albums ever to hit number three on the Billboard pop charts.

Note.

It hit number one in the UK, Scotland, and Canada.

I don't care It's

lacking a lot of power isn't it But there you go New Architects There's also Suicide Silence have announced their new album It's going to be called Graceless It's out November the 20th And they've released I think the title track from this Which is like under 2 minutes long It's like 1 minute 56 or something But I put it on and the mix sounded like an attack helicopter Yes that is worse than what Ross Robinson did to them And I just thought ah i'm out of here i'll check back in when it's out but right now that's about all i can summon about it new tour uh announcement just one here here in uh europe and the uk from frozen soul who are going to be coming around in 2027 bringing along darkest hour as a support act um in the uk here they're going to be playing bristol glasgow manchester birmingham leeds and london so a pretty decent night out for big metal riffs um if that is your bag with frozen salt coming around Really sad news, considering...

I mean, this on its own would be sad news, but considering the camp that it comes from, it just feels like another blow, where it's not fair for there to be another blow.

But this sphere, the fantastic...

Mike was Civ's A&R guy at Atlantic, and basically was at Roadrunner.

And Ross Robinson, the producer-

Yeah

... had an imprint label called IAM Records.

I do wanna say something.

Yeah.

Um, Ross Robinson, there's a connection here.

We talked about Jeremy Bolm-

I think it was through Kerrang!, yeah.

But they, they won, uh, the chance to record their album with Ross Robinson.

Mm-hmm.

And I think the album got released on V2.

and yeah it's amazing and he makes everything come alive when he does stuff it's great yeah I love that Speaking of like knowing each other so long and it seems that... you know, through the reunion and doing this record, you settled into a, uh, uh, an adult and, and solid style of communication and friendship and on working through things and having an open, um, discussion about what's good and what's bad.

Even, uh, apparently allowing like Ross Robinson, you know, more anonymity being like, we hired this guy, so let's listen to him.

Like, um, Where do you think that's all at, like at this point? And do you feel that you've had significant growth from the past in that arena?

Oh, yeah.

Guys, welcome to the Fully Vented Podcast.

This week's guest is making some serious waves at only 15 years old with his band XCOM, which recorded their album with producer Ross Robinson.

If you're not familiar with him, he's with Slipknot, Stunland Biscuit, Deftones, Korn.

We'll hear about how that was, his drum journey, and his thoughts on the Vented Snares, of course.

And I've been in like, three, two bands playing drums.

And then I started XCOM and then it's just been like great from there.

I mean, I made a record with Ross Robinson, who's definitely a big part of the Orange County history.

I mean, yes.

That's the groove Of all grooves Right there Yeah And then they start throwing in some weirder stuff.

So, for example, at our date, we got an alternate ending from the 2004 Ross Robinson-produced self-titled, which is not a song I'm going to imagine the majority of people at this setlist immediately might know.

Managed to still get a few more more hits thrown in kind of early on the fact that the cure for example are the level of band that they are where in a 27 song set list they can do a run of push in between days just like heaven kind of just in the middle and

like 10 or so songs in.
