SPIRITWORLD | Stu Folsom on New Album, Country Influences & Life on the Road | Louder Than Life 2025
Stu Folsom of SpiritWorld joins Kevin Powell backstage at Louder Than Life 2025 to talk about the band’s nonstop momentum, writing the follow-up to Deathwestern, and blending hardcore, thrash, and classic country influences into their evolving sound. They dig into everything from the band’s growth since Helldorado, touring with Obituary and Nails, to how SpiritWorld’s live show is designed to hit just as hard in clubs as it does on festival stages.
Stu also opens up about the early records that shaped him — from Master of Puppets to Reign in Blood — and what fans can expect from the next SpiritWorld era.
🎸 Topics covered: • New album and writing process • Country meets metal influences (Dwight Yoakam, Marty Stuart, Slayer, Hatebreed) • Touring with Obituary, Nails, and festival growth • Advice for young bands • SpiritWorld’s live energy and evolution
