ATX Metal Podcast

In this episode (recorded on Aug 9, 2020), Ryan has a chat with long time friend Ven Scott, front man for the Texas based metal outfit Runescarred.

Show Notes

Rising out of the ashes of Austin legends Dead Earth Politics and joining forces with regional heroes Southern Front, Runescarred are hurtling towards success. Veterans of a thousand nights on the road and countless packed clubs, they have worked hard to polish their distinct prog metal assault and confidently stand beside some of the biggest names in the genre as talented musicians and songwriters.

Ven and Ryan go down the road of where the band came from, COIVD-19 and its impact on the band.  They also take a dabble into some politics in which they go off on for some time.  We all know politics is one of those subjects that is not for everyone but they express thier views and how its affecting current times.  Ven is Founder/Producer/Director at Indignant Dog Films.  This episode is full of fun and little nuggets of his journey over the last year.
