E295 Matt Flood of Caskets on Artistic Evolution and Keeping Writing Fun While Being Emotionally Honest
This week, we're scratching The Itch to get buried... by the weight of good music. (That works, right?) Caskets frontman Matt Flood joins us ahead of the release The Only Heaven You'll Know, an album Matt has described as "the sound of me falling apart in real time." The new record finds him broadening his skills as a vocalist while the band explores heavier sounds and the lyrical themes somehow become more raw than ever. Plus, we discuss Matt's love for Fightstar and the importance of keeping the writing process fun... even when you're falling apart. Enjoy.
And if you like Caskets, check out our previous conversation with Benji and James as well!
