ORPHAN | JACOB MATHES: Deathcore, Grief & Authenticity In Heavy Music | Brutality Podcast EP 120

This week we’re joined by Jacob Mathes, co-vocalist / writer for Orphan, for an in-depth conversation on deathcore vocals, emotion and authenticity in heavy music, and the creative process behind Porcelain and Manifesto 1.0: Stages Of Grief. We talk writing with his brother, mindset while recording, mental health, visual identity and graphic design, what’s next for Orphan & so much more.
