All Shall Perish – The Interview

28 March, 2009 (12:52) | Interviews, death metal, deathcore, melodic death metal | 1 comment

All Shall Perish, perhaps one of the most prolific death metal bands coming out of the underground to this day. Back when Hate.Malice.Revenge came out (the band’s debut record), I knew I had stumbled upon something incredibly significant.
