The Upgrade Podcast - 009 - "Pull the Boat Back In" - Part 2 with Phil Vibez (ex Irate / The Judas Syndrome)
Description
Episode 009 - Part 2 of the big conversation with Phil Vibez (ex-Irate/The Judas Syndrome) gets deep into music! Phil, Len & Gary kick it off with a long discussion about Phil’s favorite band of all time: Metallica. From there the conversation weaves around The Big 4, Guns n Roses, Death & the death metal scene. The discussion then turns to Phil’s new music project with his son Jason (#KOTB…. Full band name cannot be disclosed yet), how Phil’s love of horror movies ties into the lyrical content for his new project, and the challenge of writing lyrics around more technical music. From there the guys explore Phil’s roots, from his first hardcore show to the beginning of Irate, becoming friends with the other bands from the Castle Heights scene and how that eventually led to the legendary Puerto Rico Invasion Tour in 2004 (featuring Sworn Enemy, Irate, Everybody Gets Hurt & Billy Club Sandwich). From discussing Irate’s infamous booze cruise appearance and the continued relevance of the song CPR in today’s world, the conversation then changes focus to Phil’s post-Irate project The Judas Syndrome, more shared musical history, and bringing his son Jason up around the metal and hardcore scene and how that upbringing led to the two working together on their new project.
