Howard Jones, ex-Killswitch Engage and current Devil You Know vocalist, is our guest this week. We talk about his bout with depression, his reasons for leaving KSE, his new project and we generally try and psychoanalyze a way too humble man.

Chuck and Godless also talk about the cuttlefish in the room, the death of Dave Brockie; what his death means to them and what it might mean for the band — Godless already thinking about their future and Chuck is stuck in the past. They also let you hear the new supergroup Killer Be Killed and can’t help but like the song, and they discuss the reasons why bands try to make something new when they already have a good thing going (or if that is even the point of the exercise?).
