Thanks to Dave, we dig into the start of the recent nu-metal resurgence back in 2016, as we review Darke Complex's "Point Oblivion" alongside the former lead singer of the group, Vincente Void. It's a fantastic chat as we get into just how a 21 year-old kid would be so into nu-metal him and his friends make a nu-metal record well past the genre's peak, and how the genre itself would become a nurturing space for him as a mixed-race musician. We also get into how that album was covered at the time (very negatively) and how it might be received were it to come out now. And of course, John and Bryan review the album as only they can.

Great ep guys! Listened to the album after and it really makes that stereogum article sound even more unhinged because of how inoffensive it is. It’s definitely of a type of sound/genre but from their article I was expecting like Brokencyde levels of bad or something.
