Psychic Warfare

Where Philosophy and Heavy Music Collide

About the show

Do you love rock and metal, but are tired of podcasts and interviews asking artists the same old questions? Are you looking for a podcast that dives deeper into the rock and metal artists you love than anything or anyone else out there? Then welcome to PSYCHIC WARFARE, the only rock and metal show where your favorite rock and metal artists discuss the philosophy, spirituality, and internal discoveries that have shaped their outlook on their music, their relationships, and their lives. In these interviews, no stone is unturned, no question is too big, and all are welcome to the battlefield. You'll get to know your favorite rock and metal artists on a level you never have before, and hear the lessons and teachings they have learned that have guided them as songwriters and as human beings. It's Joseph Campbell in the circle pit. Buddha meets black metal. Aristotle at an Anthrax show. This is PSYCHIC WARFARE.
