Suffocation Interview!

We welcome guitarist Terrance Hobbs from one of death metal’s finest outfits, Suffocation. After 3 decades of trekking the world while playing pure classic death metal riffs for millions of fans, we give Terrance the chance to sit and reflect on these countless memories. A lot of hard work during these years yet a rewarding experience. Everything came together as he and his bandmates unleashed the newest live album ”Live In North America”, which covers the entirety of their North American tour in 2018. While everything did come together, it also served as the final page in the band’s most recent chapter – and that is the departure of their long time friend, bandmate, and frontman, Frank Mullen. It was time Frank left the band to pursue a new chapter of his own, but on a high note (literally). We ask Terrance about the positive impact that Frank has left on him and many others within the metal community. At the same time, these are quite the big shoes to fill as they have now found a new frontman who will lead Suffocation to the newest chapter, and that is seasoned vocalist Ricky Myers. Terrance mentions that even though there will never be anyone like Frank, Ricky was the perfect choice for the band’s new frontman. Whether it be Frank, or Ricky – one thing is certain, Suffocation will forge ahead with some of the most exciting new music set to drop in the near future. They are 8 albums into their renowned career, and Terrance is more than eager to get the new tunes to the forefront. Tune in now and be sure to buy and stream the latest live album from Suffocation, featuring the final appearance from Frank Mullen, titled “Live In North America”, out now worldwide via Nuclear Blast Records.
