In this lively and deeply nostalgic episode of All Consuming Podcast, the hosts catch up on long-overdue shoutouts, swap hilarious stories (including one about a cat-poop-eating dog), and dive deep into the evolving landscape of Christian metal and hardcore music.

The discussion weaves through classic pop-punk nostalgia with bands like Hawk Nelson to heavier sounds from bands like We Came As Romans, 6 feet deep, and Big Boy. The hosts reflect on how their tastes have changed—moving away from overproduced metalcore toward raw, emotional hardcore—and share a strong appreciation for the authenticity and grit in bands like The Wounds That Speak, a newer Christian metalcore band from Colorado with a powerfully gospel-centered message.

Also highlighted are newer releases from Wolves at the Gate and Confessions of a Traitor, along with a nostalgic mention of Phinehas’ album The Fire Itself as a standout example of true modern metalcore.

Expect laughs, laments, and lots of genre talk—plus a passionate encore shoutout to Six Feet Deep. If you’re a fan of raw, honest Christian heavy music, this episode is for you!
