Moros: We're Pushing Air at You No Matter What
Moros, a Philly-based doomy, sludgy death metal band, invites me to a rehearsal and shares their thoughts on crafting a big sound with just three people, developing gory, nightmarish lyrics, and assembling the right band for the job. The "E" for explicit on this episode is well-earned, so listener discretion is advised.
Check out Moros live at Underground Arts (https://www.tixr.com/groups/undergroundarts/events/underground-arts-worm-179806) with Worm and Cape of Bats on June 16th, and pick up Cemetery Hallucinations on vinyl, cassette, or CD.
