About this episode

The hosts discuss the evolution of their music tastes, focusing on Christian metal and hardcore music while sharing nostalgic stories and new music highlights.

In this lively and deeply nostalgic episode of All Consuming Podcast, the hosts catch up on long-overdue shoutouts, swap hilarious stories (including one about a cat-poop-eating dog), and dive deep into the evolving landscape of Christian metal and hardcore music. The discussion weaves through classic pop-punk nostalgia with bands like Hawk Nelson to heavier sounds from bands like We Came As Romans, 6 feet deep, and Big Boy. The hosts reflect on how their tastes have changed—moving away from overproduced metalcore toward raw, emotional hardcore—and share a strong appreciation for the authenticity and grit in bands like The Wounds That Speak, a newer Christian metalcore band from Colorado with a powerfully gospel-centered message. Also highlighted are newer releases from Wolves at the Gate and Confessions of a Traitor, along with a nostalgic mention of Phinehas’ album The Fire Itself as a standout example of true modern metalcore. Expect laughs, laments, and lots of genre talk—plus a passionate encore shoutout to Six Feet Deep. If you’re a fan of raw, honest Christian heavy music, this episode is for you!
