All Consuming Podcast

Matt from Remedial joins us to talk about his time fronting Exiting the Fall, returning to heavy music after nearly a decade, and the concept behind Remedial’s new EP.
We get into faith, philosophy, MySpace-era metalcore, the trolley problem, and what it looks like to make heavy music with something deeper to say.

Gary and Tyler recap their weekend in Pomona, California for the Sleeping Giant reunion shows at The Glass House. From traveling with their wives and meeting online friends in real life, to merch line chaos, pit injuries, guest vocalists, and powerful moments of worship, this episode covers the full experience of two unforgettable nights.
They talk through the bands, the crowd, the Christian heavy music community, the return of Sleeping Giant, and what made the weekend feel less like just another concert and more like a reunion, a pilgrimage, and a reminder of why this music matters.

On this episode of All Consuming Podcast, we hang out with Justin from Propositions to talk about his new song “Death Plan” featuring Unworthy.
Justin breaks down what it looks like to be the one-man force behind Propositions, writing the riffs, vocals, bass, drums, and bringing songs as far as he can before handing them off for that final production push. We also get into the origin of Propositions, how grief and loss helped push him toward creating heavy music, and how bands like Pipebomb helped him realize he could build something powerful on his own.
The main focus of the episode is “Death Plan”, a heavy, deathcore-leaning track centered on the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. Justin talks about the song’s meaning, how the title came from his son, and how the feature grew from a vocal spot into having most of Unworthy involved in the track.
We also talk about Christian heavy music, bold gospel-centered lyrics, the difference between being a Christian band and Christians in a band, the Heavy Collective, group shouts, dream tours, Bloodlines, Sleeping Giant, Holy Name, and why this scene still feels like a place where worship and heavy music can collide in a real way.
Stream “Death Plan” by Propositions featuring Unworthy, and then come hang out with us for the conversation behind it.

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.”

Most bands start faltering after a decade + in the game—unless they're on this episode! Lets jump into the latest metalcore heaters from August Burns Red, Haste the Day, Impending Doom, and Idle Threat!
We also explore the world of AI-generated bands and overly graphic and violent art in Christian metal. Revealing how technology might reshape the scene—good or bad.
