Namely the introduction of clean melodies and complex guitar work to a medium that was mainly derided as aggressive and simplistic metal riffing in a bro-heavy outgrowth of hardcore punk. If you weren't there, it's hard to fully realize the impact of this.Eager to do artwork for a band I respected, I learned the hard way that indecisive young kids would make life for a working artist a nightmare!To them, it was a labor of love, and they were unaware of the expenses accrued. Three oil paintings, two watercolor paintings, and several drawings later I was left holding the bag as they struggled with finances and a scene that loved their work but grew reticent to pay for anything.All that aside, me and Matt remained friends, and hindsight being 20/20, it became more of a learning experience. In this episode, we talk about how things progressed and what Matt is working on now.If you want to support me and help give light to indie authors, go tohttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2058263/supportand give what you can!All my social media links-https://linktr.ee/DanHenkk Support the show
