    Ep. 18 - Anders Colsefni (Ex-Slipknot/ Painface)

    This episode of the Cacophony Music Podcast features a very special guest - Mr Anders Colsefni, founder/original vocalist and percussionist for one of the most prolific bands in Nu Metal, Slipknot.  This is also his debut to the podcast world so I'm really hyped that he took his time out to be on the show!

    Back in 1996, Slipknot released Mate Feed Kill Repeat, an eclectic collection of death/grind/hardcore/funk/jazz and soul (yes you read that right!). I'd heavily suggest checking it out after hearing the show, there are definitely some choice cuts worth listening to! Over the 1 hour long episode, we discuss Anders' musical journey and MFKR in general. I hope you will enjoy this as much as I enjoyed the interview.
