Channel 1: Vice Radio www.scion.com/channel1
Host: Christopher Roberts
Guest: Goregast, Final Prayer, and Mugshot
Germans love their Death Metal. They've been hiding away for years doing nothing but perfecting a very specific growl of medical terminology over dark and extremely pummeling electric reverberations. Nice work, lads! Vice decided to go to Germany to witness the carnage first hand. That’s where Vice met up with Goregast and Final Prayer. You can tell they're the real deal because you can barely make out the letters in their logos. But Vice didn't stop there! Vice took off to Copenhagen to talk with Mugshot who've been playing sludge metal Denmark style for about 10 years. www.vicerecords.com
