Welcome to this weeks episode of Heavy Metal History. My guest is Zak Vargas from the now defunct band Elysia. Zak came on the podcat to talk the 18 year history of the bands debut album "Masochist" which is currently getting a remaster\reissue treatment on May the 10th. Zak took me through the entire history of the record track by track discussing each song as well as their timeline with demos and other songs and how the reissue came to be over the past few years. We also discuss a lot of the lyrical themes and even breifly touch on "Lion of Judas" and the bands break up. Masochist, is an album that needs little introduction within the global Deathcore scene, as it's become one of the most sought-after 2000s era collectibles. Original copies will cost you upwards of $500, if you can even find one to purchase! This deluxe edition CD features all-new artwork by Alexandre Goulet (All Out War, Ion Dissonance, Despised Icon); a fresh new remaster by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege; plus a 24-page booklet with lyrics, photos, flyers, and retrospective insights from vocalist Zak Vargas.

Welcome to this weeks episode of Heavy Metal History. My guest were Pete Lloyd and Mike Goncalves of the New Jersey based band Replicant. Pete and Mike came onto the podcast to talk about their crushing new album "Infinite Mortality" which will release soon on @TranscendingObscurity records. Replicant Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/replicantnj Replicant Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/replicantnj Info - After having smashed prevailing standards for the style with their unique approach on their highly lauded previous release, Replicant take things further still with their new full length, finding ways to make their music even more convoluted and impactful while retaining their trademark dissonant and catchy sound. They've found ways to add new aspects to it without hampering the momentum, constantly changing things up with the listener's body still lashing uncontrollably. The songs veer off in their own unexpected, thrilling directions while upholding the inherent semblance of groove, only to reconnect later with greater force. Things seem to add up and make sense as the album progresses, an ostensibly innocuous mechanical contraption getting constant upgrades to become potentially world-ending. There's fire in the songwriting, the members refusing to succumb to the lull of complacency and working furiously, constantly on the songs to elevate them to a rarefied category. It sees the stature of the band rising, the sound evolving methodically and convincingly, the album giving more than what could be expected from them having already established their identity, and in turn setting new standards for others yet again.
