SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL | Garza Podcast 104

Damn you took that literal hahah

[@steverobertson1729]

Exactly. I like when we get an up and coming big talent in Metal , and he/ she isnt some drugged out arrogant jerk, but instead is super nice and respectable. That better represents us Metalheads. People like Alex and Will Ramos i mean.

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

It’s an honor to have such grounded and Humble talent living here in America. Welcome, and glad you’re here appreciating the freedoms of America. These guys got a good meal and place to crash if needed when they come to Houston texas.

[@chiefbrownfart]

Wow, Alex has really leveled up his english speaking skills over the past year or so!!

[@Armageddons_son]

Out of all the interviews and podcasts ive seen with Alex hes never talked this much. Iove this. You can tell hes extremely comfortable and Chris is just his homie, and they're chilling, bullshitting as bros. The vibe and energy of this episode is absolutely amazing!!

[@iandavis69]

Couldn't agree more my G!

[@dangacore]

Alex and Jack are cool dudes. Good to see real people talking about real things.

[@alejandropennerphotos]

Slaughter to prevail has become one of my favorite bands, and I think this interview made me love them even more!

[@johnc.hammersticks]

I love seeing them offstage and just chilling. Alex has serious drive and ambition and that is lacking nowadays. And Jack's riffs are insane, every time they drop teasers I can't wait for the new album.

[@oddtick]

As someone who is gay as fuck, and who has been a fan of Alex since he was recording covers in his bedroom before STP - I know that many people are apart of the scene are homophobic or transphobic. Yea, sure it does piss me off but at the end of the day, I'm going to forget that guy saying slurs to me even exists and that there is nothing I can do to change their outlook to be less hateful. Like Alex said, in a starving Russian village, their problems are far more worse and life is a lot more harder and must be laser focused on survival. On another hand, everyone's problems and situations throughout the world are different. Someone always has it better and someone always has it worse. There's just no need to invalidate someone's day to day struggles because someone across the planet has it worse. Cancel culture is definitely not helping, and it's gotten to a point where it's counterintuitive and is doing nothing but making things worse and pining more hate crimes on those who are apart of LGBTQ+ in any aspect. We just need to chill the fuck out and see each other as human beings who are different than each other and learn to just accept that reality.

[@Rob_Cary]

Associating homophobia and transphobia with the metal scene is just as false as when people associate groomers with the pop punk genre. Promoting equality has been a big part of the metal scene for at least two decades now.

[@MidnightBootySnatchr]

I got groped by a gay guy at Thy Art easier this year and I feel violated.🤢🤮

[@justme_jessm]

Big respect and much love for Slaughter To Prevail! They are such humble, down to earth dudes and they keep it real. It's great to see their success, they deserve all of the love and everything they have worked so hard for, they earned it 💯 STP is my favorite band and KOSTOLOM is my favorite album! 🙌🔥🙌 🤘🖤🤘

[@moshpitrob305]

i’m adopted from rostov and this is my fav podcast ever learning about the russian life is amazing some of it i knew especially talking about the government prison

[@smittyabbott9999]

Best interview with Alex and Jack! For sure. I Feel like I've learned alot about them in this podcast.

[@thatguy_5240]

I will say about the "freedom of speech" thing. That term only means that the government won't arrest you for saying something. You can say whatever you want, and another person can say whatever they want in response. "Freedom of speech" is freedom from legal consequences, not the opinions of other individuals, because they also have that same freedom. Your rights end where someone else's begin. Stupid people are incredibly frustrating, but they do in fact have the right to be stupid

[@ssfamous2.0]

Garza is the man! Bro you paved the way for bands today. I don't think you lost focus. Bands just come and go. I know when Mitch passed, it affected all of us!

[@t0fuwaffles]

Holy shit Alex English is incredible. The ability to have a deep conversation in your second language is unbelievable.

[@vegripperfan]

he seriously lacks the vocabulary to speak on such serious topics as he has proposed for discussion

[@alexeypolevoybass]

@@vegripperfan this, and grammar too, to be honest. But that's not the worst part, since the dude also lacks intelligence required to dive into such topics. Saying both “I hate Putin” and “I love Balabanov's movies” is like saying “I hate Hitler for his actions, but Mein Kampf is hell of a masterpiece, this book shows you the best of German culture”. Now that I've explained the problem, I hope Alex gets a second round of canceling for being THAT dumb of an asshole.

[@mastersafari5349]

@@alexeypolevoybass Your examples logic is flawed here. "Mein Kampf" was Hitler's book whilst Balabanov was just a film director in Putin's Russia. And you definitely can despise Hitler whilst for example admire Leni Riefenstahl as a German director of that era. However even that comparison isn't fair cause Balabanov didn't get involved in actual propaganda film production unlike Riefenstahl.

[@alexeypolevoybass]

@@mastersafari5349 as someone who've spent 30 years in Russia and whose friend knew Balabanov in person, I can only say you know literally nothing on the topic, so you must shut up and listen. Balabanov's ideology is downright nationalistic and even chauvinist. It's not only his movies are like this, but the fucker himself was a Nazi openly bragging about how he hates everyone “unrussian”. Putin admires Balabanov much more than anyone else, and that's FOR‌ A‌ REASON. Balabanov had power only Mikhalkov has as of now, if we speak about film directors living under Putin's personal protection. You have NO idea who Balabanov is, stop lecturing me on topic you never knew in the first place.

[@elena79rus]

While his English has improved over the years it's still not very good.

I’m American and right there with you on the tips. Why tf do I have to pay $12 for a 12 oz beer at a show and then tip you on top of that? Why do I have to tip the cashier at the burger restaurant for putting the order in and turning the iPad around? Fuck tip culture

[@TrealFOET]

I mean tbh the only restaurants that i tip at are the ones with waiters.. im not paying a tip to a damn cashier when all they do is stand at the register lol

[@Rob_Cary]

It's because employers can use tips as a way to pay employees well below minimum wage. I love this band but now that they're here, they definitely have a lot to learn about the cancer that is right wing economic policy in this country.

[@bigred6137]

@@Rob_Cary I know the reasoning, I’m just in agreement with how lame tip culture is. Pay your employees!

I've got tickets to see Slaughter to Prevail in April for the first time since 2018 when they opened for Whitechapel, Chelsea Grin, and Oceano and I had no idea who they even were at that time, but dude... when I say I was F'ing floored and they stole the entire show to include outperforming Whitechapel and Chelsea Grin I mean that shit! I only have 47 days left to hear Baba Yaga, Demolisher, Hell, Viking, Agony, Bratva and I hope like hell "Your Only" in person. I swear I'm gonna blow a grand on merch from the show. Slaughter to Prevail and Paleface are the apex of the evolution of metal as I see it. I pay good money to meet the band just so I can get a photo and have the band sign my favorite guitar. Damn I can't wait for this show. The best part is my sister is a bartender at the club they're playing and I convinced her husband to come to the show with me. He listens to super chill peace and happiness hippy music and he will be baptised in the pit. Last but not least thank you Garza for not only being one of my musical inspirations as a founding member of one of the top 5 metal bands to have ever existed (RIP Mitch) but also for hosting this podcast with ALL the best F'n metal bands of today as a member of one of the greatest metal bands of ALL TIME 🤘

What Alex says about the music/movie industry is true. What he says about saying what's on you're mind, is what America needs to be again. Our country has become soft. And Alex nailed it on the head when it comes to being a tough, strong, and masculine man. He's also right on people being kind to one another.

[@EzScrumptious]

The most holy Alex you can see in front of the mic.

[@thedayidied]

Hi there - native Floridian here. Can confirm: gators do not give a fuck about you. I used to live in a house in south FL that had a canal right behind it. Every so often, a gator or two would come through the canal (it ran to another canal which connected to the Everglades), and my house was right at the canal's end. So sometimes, they'd climb out of the canal to bask. I've come within a few feet of them, but they just don't bother moving. The theory is that they don't waste energy unless an almost guaranteed meal walks by them.

As an American (who had also worked in food and appreciated generous tips) tipping sucks. I hate that they get paid shittier and then people who go are expected to front half of someone’s paycheck. I appreciate places like Japan where they don’t expect a tip. (Just before 1:18:08) . . . .

[@leoleopantsonfire2660]

I don’t know Russian, but I’ve heard it’s a very profound language. I heard there’s simple words you can say in Russian that can explain a complex feeling or a thought process that in English could take sentences to convey. I felt this with this interview. Was awesome to see this and that fact that you gave this band a platform. Great interview.

[@alexeypolevoybass]

Same for English. There's no exact equivalent of “cringe” in Russian, for instance. Languages aren't black and white, one can't be “more profound” than another. Besides, Alex is terrible at Russian for a native speaker (pun intended), he's definitely the last person I'd want to learn Russian from if I was a foreign learner.
