Welcome to the very first episode of the Face Ripper Records Podcast! Host Ben Sebastian is kicking things off with an incredibly diverse and powerful line-up of music. In this episode, we're championing artists big and small, starting with the blackened crust punk of Canada's Wormwitch and the modern metal of Sweden's rising star Mindistry. We then dive into some punishing death metal from Italian veterans Sudden Death before experiencing something totally unique: a massive, collaborative gothic metal opera from the LovAnaverse music universe. To top it all off, we revisit a classic as hip-hop legends Cypress Hill team up with the London Symphony Orchestra for a mind-blowing performance of "Rock Superstar." Join the community, discover some killer new music, and find out why it's more important than ever to support the artists you love.
