Why Chris Barnes Stopped Screaming High: Jack Owen Reveals the Studio Secret

Jack Owen has been the backbone of the most legendary death metal on the planet, but his latest work with Six Feet Under on Next to Die is sparking a massive debate among the purists. Is the “legend of death metal” getting soft, or is he finally exposing the exhaustion of the 1,000-mile-an-hour arms race? Owen pulls back the curtain on why he’s trading the archive of riffs for a “Stoner” vibe and what really happens when the high-pitched chaos of the past meets the reality of aging in the extreme scene. You won’t believe what he says about the “censored” art that almost broke the industry.
