SPINNING THE WAX #15: IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT listens to POWERWOLF - "Wake Up the Wicked"
Zachary Ezrin (vocals/guitar) and Steve Blanco (bass) of Imperial Triumphant join Spinning the Wax to listen to German power metal band Powerwolf's 2024 album "Wake Up the Wicked" for the very first time.
They marvel at the variety, the consistency, and the infectiousness of the record's 11 songs across 37 minutes, while bowing down to their touring schedule and merch game.
We also dive into Imperial Triumphant's brand new album "Goldstar," how touring relentlessly and wanting to play shorter songs led to its creation, and how 45 minutes is the perfect length for an album.
If you've ever wanted to watch two extreme/jazz musicians lose their minds to cheesy and pristine power metal, you've come to the right place. Goldstar is now available everywhere now via Century Media Records.
Spinning the Wax is a heavy music interview series where guests spin a record of their choice and have a candid discussion while listening.
