This week we are joined by Josh Goddard, the legendary masked drummer from the early days of Suicide Silence. We're talking the 2004 demos, the Family Guy Demo and of course the iconic Self-Titled EP. We end up chatting about his whole backstory / lore with the band, getting into drums, stories behind the mask, his exit from Suicide Silence, Mitch Lucker's memorial show & reconnecting with the band, personal growth, dealing with anxiety & so much more.
