We brought along Sean, vocalist of Portland, ME funk metal band Trawl to share his thoughts. We dig into our early memories of the record/band, the massive influence and legacy this record has, Poison The Well being a Mount Rushmore metalcore band, the importance of Trustkill Records, and much more. This is a special one, from a time when the genre was still taking shape.
