Guy from The Red Chord sits down with Rob from Metal Injection for a very honest and candid interview at Mayhem Fest, discussing the fans, his fellow tour mates, deathcore as a genre and other topics. Guy doesn't hold back in this awesome MI video

[@joshjones6536]

The last time that I saw The Red Chord tour with Under Oath, Guy comes out right after Under Oaths’ set. He opens the show with “How many of you guys are wearing your sisters’ pants?!!” as they start the first song. Me and my friend just about died laughing🤣

They are back in the studio

[@mattragan483]

I got to crowdsurf up to the stage and guy gave me mic to scream "it's not gonna be alright, it's not gonna be okay" a couple times. Best night of my life. Wish I died the next day, it's all been downhill from there. This happened in 2007.

[@cwidd1929]

It's amazing how relevant some of Guy's comments are, even 8 yrs later

[@Cheeseburger.Launch.Sequence]

Back in the 03 to 04 era I was in a band that didn't sound like the Red Chord but we were in the same orbit with association with Andy Low. Despite actually growing up and living near each other, still to this day I've only met him a handful of times. He was actually always such a nice person.... but a legit enigma. I swear this dude became a cop JUST to fuck with people's minds. He never seemed to have any hard beliefs in ANYTHING other than maybe kind of stirring shit up. Not a bad dude... but someone I would consider a lifelong contrarian... borderline nihilist.

[@Cheeseburger.Launch.Sequence]

He was dead right on the eventual creation of deathcore. The missing element people forget were the nu-metal bands. Not just Korn and shit...... but moreso the 2nd wave of bands like American Head Charge, Nothingmore, etc.

[@drumterror]

"We appreciate the wigger support' LMFAO, new hero on my list of heroes, Guy Kozowyk lmfao :D

[@jmetalskinz]

These guys were such a unique and hilarious band! I love the honesty even though I don't agree with everything he says. This dude just gets things other people don't and has the most hilarious perspective toward other people and their stupidity! The "Panteradactyl" had me rolling! \m/

[@jmetalskinz]

J MetalSkinz .....actually, I jumped to conclusions. I pretty much agree with everything he said.

[@brutality707]

Guy is hilarious. One of the reasons I love the red chord is that they don't take themselves too seriously. Cant wait for the next record.

[@blakemoore1905]

We needed more of this in the metal scene

[@OM210]

"They wanna worship Jesus and hear Underoath." LOL

[@SaturnineXTS]

The Red Chord are really one band in a thousand, amazing stuff

[@Emac13]

dude I was the same way...I went from limp bizkit, linkin park to way heavier stuff, now I'm a big fan of lots of death metal and other various forms of extreme metal

[@philavise6607]

Rob is great and this video never gets old!

[@ForkCelebration]

At least Guy recognizes bands like Converge are the real Metalcore.

[@young_dieg0301]

well,now they fall into the "mathcore" category(converge)....but anyways it doesn't matter...i listen to deathcore metalcore and mathcore but i dont care...because always there's going to be a elitist/genre war

[@SinnedNogara]

ByMaatdraG Converge really isn't that math-y (Dark Horse and AWLWLB especially). I consider them just artsy hardcore

[@TheBeefPudding]

[@DrumBum561]

Guy is the coolest fucking dude ever.

[@manifestdestiny6505]

I saw him in a parking lot in Andover once. Also black Santa was a great song

[@lemonlimelukey]

love his humor

[@TheseBitchesWantNikes]

Awesome that Guy recognizes the greatness of Converge.

Wonderful perspective, still relevant. This band influenced so much good to debut too. Big influence of mine

[@TimmyTurner421]

He's hilarious!

[@coryleblanc]

this must be the only red chord interview that can be taken seriously? ok.

[@MyEggIsBoiled]

He seems like an upstanding fellow, and actually pleasant to talk to.

[@user-zu8nu4jm9y]

Its Beautiful To See The Spark in his eyes

[@Crobbins2103]

have never heard of this band yet still enjoyed this interview haha

[@coryleblanc]

aw man start with their first 2 albums

[@crazyfaceperson]

He wasn't joking. He invented Pantera and pterodactyls.

[@fatefatefate]

All of The Red Chord are pretty nice guys. Suicide Silence fucking rocks, btw! =D

[@xburninxthexremainsx]

omfg, i remember the birdman shit at Mayhem when they played lmfao. That was awesome

[@Swoopert]

He didn't say he invented it, just said that he likes to pretend that they did.

[@zrayburton]

Love you guy

[@saragoodwin7855]

YESSSS I remember that Clifton Park show!! I thought it was hysterical that y'all were playing with underOATH and I was hype. Diversity at its finest. Thank you \m/

[@michaelnerio8279]

Awesomeness!

[@SirChocolateHobo]

What an awesome dude.

red chord interviews are always funny

[@Utomneian]

this guy was pretty fair and subjective about deathcore, i personally have no qualms with metalcore and deathcore specifically, though the scenes are becoming saturated in general.

[@mike390g]

TRC is my favorite band!

[@WOOKIESareREAL]

this tour was tight

[@RemmyRiffs]

For everyone that want's to know who REALLY invented the wall of death...Sick Of It All invented the wall of death...NY hardcore scene, it was actually originally named "the braveheart" before band's started calling it the wall of death. It's DEFINITELY a hardcore thing, that scene has alway's been big on fucking eachother up and being ultra violent. Lamb Of God was the band that made it popular because Randy started adopting it into their set with Black Label. By the way, Guy was only joking...he isn't serious when he say's they invented it.

[@defthopeswell]

Great interview when he's talking about deathcore influences of Suicide Silence. I'm there age and It's funny how non-metal or hardcore bands like RAGE, Korn, Deftones, even Limp Bizkit can influence new metal bands arising. So much mixture involved when I was in hs 99'. I even heard the singer from Emmure was influenced by Limp Bizkit...

[@Mazter0fMuppetz]

Guy is a totally approved dude.

[@demonofthefall2454]

We appreciate the wigger support

[@midihc]

18:36 when he imitates the wigger scene kid i fucking lost it!

I was at the Clifton Park show he is talking about.

[@slayerkicksass96]

Lamb of god has done the wall of death at every show they've ever done

[@physicalremoval24]

HAHAHA, pause at 18:50 :), his face is priceless, and the wigger statement was sooooo true :D, HAIL THE RED CHORD!!!

[@drayne3750]

trust me they did invent the wall of death they've been doing it since 2000 in revere ma and at the palladium in Worcester ma where lamb of god picked up on it after doing a couple of shows with them

[@krich451]

yeah imagine getting into a red chord show for free because you go to school with guys girlfriends sister. dude was fucking intimidating as shit the first time i met him i think i was only like 15. it was a cool experience though, getting into a show for free with the headlining band. but yeah guy is a fucking tank.

[@skadogg22]

Rob used Suicide Silence and The Red Chord in the same sentence and Guy gave him the fucking stare of death

[@iizanthonybuck]

Nice shirt Rob, The Red Chord fucking own!

[@yesthingshavechanged]

it is definitely a musical genre. it's been taken over by scene kids, part of a trend, have taken it over. i predict that within the next couple years there will be a mass exodus from deathcore to crunkcore (stuff like brokenCYDE)

[@pickymcgee]

Does anyone see a comparison between this guy and greg from dillinger escape plan?

[@danielsnelen]

red chord an acacia strain are a perfect fit

[@lionofapollo4636]

Milwaukee at the Rave, 2010. They put a pop punk band in the main room, and the To Catch A Preda-Tour with TAS and Red Chord in the tiny bar. Such a great f ckin time

ha ha, I was at that Clifton park show and I TOTALLY missed that shit xD first time I've ever heard an interview about a show I was at... But yeah, guy seemed pretty startled at that show... I think he might have said hail Satan to the crowd once or twice.

[@TehEndOfAllFlesh]

Word up 94' RATM! Fuck yeah. Guy is the shit

[@oblivion31]

I agree with everything he said about deathcore; I feel a lot older than some of the people my own age just because I look at them, and they all have these skinny jeans and dyed hair, and are apart of this apparent 'scene' culture, but I myself have become increasingly disassociated with that. And I listen to pretty much every kind of metal.

[@Harryjay6]

Koko B. Ware!!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm dead

[@applepie338]

@lucadepu Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be spelled, since he's talking about the band. Unless you're saying the band name in English, which in that case is completely fine.

[@Qodesh7]

why would these guys have been playing with under oath or whoever...? oh well. seems like they enjoyed it. only seen them once, but it was super heavy. sounds of the underground in dallas. not sure what year. maybe the first tour of that short lived touring festival.

[@peroslowned]

i think rob is cool. great interview too :D

[@jessemidel]

@anyrock22 thats because they started the whole deathcore thing

[@holyguachamole]

i live near clifton park, and i know the security guard he was talking about. he has been working a couple of shows i went to

[@MyEggIsBoiled]

"We appreciate the wigger support.." Haha. That shit was comedy.

[@UnholySatyr]

@theonlybandever1000 agreed whole heatedly. We listen to interviews for the artist, not the interviewer trying to be witty like most others fail to do.

[@happymonkeyfish]

lol the underoath reference

[@lionofapollo4636]

Anyone remember that he dated Juliya from Uranium? Lol does anyone here even remember Uranium?

[@seaofglass123]

same here dude i nearly started crying i was laughing so hard

[@foxman123456789]

he is talking about northern lights in Clifton park and my god the security there blows

[@ojpimpson3343]

6 Years later and it still does...

[@dylanvalorfall]

Honestly, there is nothing wrong with subgenres. This is silly. Although it is old, and the other deathcore he seems to reference is SS.

[@MyScaryScrotum]

@KindaKevin Oh, so Randy from Lamb of God (Burn The Priest) invented the words "Last Chance To Dance". It all makes sense.
