We Wreck Records

Rifflord Kirk Windstein of Crowbar redefined sonic gravity with his heavyweight riffs and serrated vocals, creating a unique sound that has now connected with a whole new generation of heavy music fans.
Kirk's band Down is a collision of huge personalities: Philip Anselmo (Pantera), Pepper Keenan (Corrosion of Conformity), Jimmy Bower (Eyehategod, Crowbar) and Pat Bruders (Crowbar). Since their landmark debut NOLA, the band has created savage blues and straight-up filth. As they approach their first new album in years, Down V, Christina explores the personal stories behind the music: the alchemy that made everything possible.

Emma Ruth Rundle is a musician and artist who has just released These Killing Times, an exquisite new record with a cast of characters that is large-sounding, intricate, provocative and emotional. Emma redefined heaviness for her longtime pal Becky Laverty, co-booker of the iconic Roadburn Festival, way back in 2017 when her solo show at the festival brought the house down. Nine years later, Becky has been an intimate part of the making of These Killing Times, and has recently launched a new zine called Slowpoke, sharing untold stories from exceptional visual artists and musicians. 
In this expansive conversation, we discuss the pair's close friendship, the birth of the record, the role of feminine rage, what makes Roadburn Festival so special, the role of community in the flourishing of heavy music, the creative process, and lots more.

Robin Staps of The Ocean alongside Tim Charles of Ne Obliviscaris join us to discuss The Ocean's epic new album Solaris, how the early days in underground Berlin shaped the band, and what's happening behind the scenes as Ne Obliviscaris prepare their first record with new co-vocalist James Dorton.
Over two decades, both bands have built undeniably devout followings across the globe. Here they compare notes on band survival, what happens when fans show material support, and share their takes on divisive vocals, the cutting room floor and major lineup changes. It made sense to bring them together and see the parallels between two bands that have never painted inside the lines.

Mighty rifflord Pepper Keenan (Down, Corrosion of Conformity) talks about classic records like Down's peerless debut NOLA and Deliverance, Corrosion of Conformity's maiden voyage with Pepper as a vocalist, which were both recorded during the same period three decades ago.
Now, with the first Down LP in 19 years on the way and an epic new double record from COC, we delve into how the guitar helped Pepper get his point across, how vocals became another weapon, and the blues that runs through his veins with punk rock in his heart.
We also get into Black Sabbath, King Diamond, writing riffs until he couldn't see straight, his memories of Dimebag Darrell, what getting older has done to his relationship with the guitar, and his forthcoming solo album.

Misha Mansoor is the founding member of progressive metal band Periphery, a band he formed in 2005 who are known for violently infectious melody and deceptively complex music. A devout revhead and gear head - the man has had a hand in designing everything from drum libraries to pedals - Misha reflects on the songwriting techniques Periphery stole from Nirvana, and why the collision of art and engineering sits at the heart of almost everything he loves. We also dig into A Pale White Dot, Periphery's deeply personal exploration of loneliness, solitude, grief and our tiny place in the universe; why the band scrapped an album when COVID forced them to work remotely; the weird history of djent; and why, after more than two decades of making music, his best advice is still remarkably simple: do it for the love.
