In episode 18, Slug covers the French film, Martyrs. Just a warning for all who decide to watch this film…it’s brutal. In keeping with the brutality of the film, this weeks featured band in The Dillinger Escape Plan. Slug plays a few of the bands more mellow tracks, but also plays a sampling of their more heavy stuff. Oh, and new promos, a new phone, and a new recording setup!
