Episode 312: Obsidian Mind

The boys from the metalcore band Obsidian Mind are on the podcast today. Coming from the Cincinnati area, you fist get to know what bands inspired Obsidian Mind, and how they take a lot of inspiration from The Ghost Inside. From there, we dive into their latest single, Sapphire, discussing its themes about emotional and mental abuse cutting deeper than the physical, the more mature sound of the song, and the outro breakdown that will throw you out of your chair. You like metalcore?
