IF TODAY WE MEET OUR END, THEN IT'S A GOOD DAY TO DIE! The metal scene in Chicago is vibrant and thriving and my guest today and his band members in Bloodletter are no exception. Pete Carparelli is a man of many talents. Guitar, drums, vocals, writing lyrics, etc. What can't this man do other than play piano?! Nothing! That's what. He and his band are nearing 8 years together and they couldn't be more busy. They've put out multiple EP's and full length albums in that time and are looking to release more in 2022. There brand of thrash is just what you need to make your day better. Speed, aggression, melody, thoughtful lyrics, and much more. If you haven't heard their 2021 release Funeral Hymns, do yourself a favor and go listen to it now. Along with the rest of their discography! Because it's worth it and you're missing out. Pete and I have a thoughtful and honest conversation about the importance of thrash metal, the support of the local scene in Chi Town, and even the therapeutic quality of metal music. There's a lot to digest here, but it's a joy of a conversation. And now I'm craving deep dish pizza.
