Show Notes
Metal Blade Records CEO Brian Slagel is joined by Cannibal Corpse bassist and songwriter Alex Webster. They discuss the song "Scourge of Iron" from the band's 2012 album "Torture", Alex's musical background and influence, the extreme vocals of death metal and the evolution of the band's sound throughout their career.
There's also focus on the production of the song, which Mark Lewis provides some unique insight, as he produced the follow-up album.
As always, author Martin Popoff puts the song into historical context.
