About this episode
Happy New Year! For our first episode of the year, we are joined by GRAMMY-WINNING producer/recording engineer Will Putney.
Aside from being the master of the modern metalcore sound for other bands, he is well known for playing guitar in genre-staple Fit For An Autopsy, multi-regional supergroup END, and the spiritual successor to Every Time I Die, Better Lovers.
We discuss getting his start as a recording engineer, his early, lesser known bands that spawned into FFAA, winning a Grammy with Body Count, re-discovering his love of touring, his studio Graphic Nature being haunted, early collaborations with Knocked Loose and MUCH more.
