Episode 6: Black Sites' Mark Sugar (Progressive Metal)

On Episode 6 of the Distorted Dialogue Podcast, I sit down with Mark Sugar of Modern Progressive metal band Black Sites, to talk about recording their newest metal release, THE PROMISED LAND? It’s a diverse progressive metal album where you can find hints of thrash, traditional and even moments of doom metal! Mark and I talk about his influences, sounds that shaped The Promised Land?, and other parts of the music industry. Thanks to Mark for taking time out, out of his schedule, such a relatable, down to earth, guest on this Podcast, If you haven't heard The Promised Land? yet, it is great! Featuring guitarist Tom Draper, from bands Spirit Adrift, Carcass and more, this album is a total package. It's heavy enough to please metal heads and rhythmic enough for rockers. 🎙️ Distorted Dialogue | A Podcast from The Metal Institute of Thrashology 🤘Welcome to Distorted Dialogue, the official podcast of The Metal Institute of Thrashology — where riffs meet ridiculousness and academia bows before the almighty arpeggio.Each episode dives deep, headfirst into the chaotic realms of metal, punk, hardcore, and beyond with band members, scene lifers, and other unholy scholars of sound.
