About this episode
Gary and Tyler discuss Dead Poetic's album New Medicines, exploring its significance and impact on music and culture.
Gary gives Tyler homework: listen to three songs from Dead Poetic’s New Medicines and come ready to talk. In this episode of All Consuming Podcast , we dig into one of Gary’s favorite albums, why New Medicines stood out in the Tooth & Nail and Solid State era, and whether Dead Poetic fits the “Christian band” label or something more like Christians making music. We also get into the bigger conversation around what we consume , how music shapes us, parenting kids through music choices, Warped Tour -era sing/scream bands, comparisons to Underoath , Emery , Saosin , Chiodos , and why Taste the Red Hands is such a killer album opener. Tyler may not be a full Dead Poetic convert yet, but he walks away with a new respect for the album. Songs discussed: “New Medicines,” “Taste the Red Hands,” and “Vanus Empty.”
