On this episode of Spinning the Wax, guitarist Sammy Urwin of UK metalcore band Employed to Serve (and founder of the amazing Church Road Records) listens to "Close to the Edge" by Yes.

A self-described musical magpie, Sammy holds my hand while I listen to a Yes album for the very first time. He talks about how the band were an acquired taste (like a lot of 70s prog) and explains his journey constantly looking for new and interesting sounds.

We also chat about how artists balance fans' expectations with what fulfills their soul, the story behind Church Roads Records, and a hint at new Employed to Serve music down the road.

Spinning the Wax is a heavy music interview series where guests spin a record of their choice and have a candid discussion while listening.
