EP 234: Eugen & Max of Throatcut – From Hardcore Roots to Global Stages

On this episode of And Now The Band, Tom sits down with Eugen and Max of Throatcut, one of Germany’s most exciting new names in metalcore and hardcore. The band dives deep into their emotionally intense and musically aggressive debut full-length album “Resilience,” dropping July 18 via Arising Empire Records.

🔥 From their early days in metalcore and punk scenes to the creation of Throatcut’s dynamic dual-vocal lineup, Eugen and Max reflect on the power of trust, collaboration, and pushing creative limits. They open up about the deeply personal track “Creep”, the evolution of their sound, and the vulnerable but vital role of emotional honesty in heavy music.

🎸 Highlights include:

• Their upcoming performance at Summer Breeze Festival, Germany's second-biggest metal fest

• Details on their limited red and black vinyl variant

• Dream tours with UnityTX, Knocked Loose, and Comeback Kid

• Insights on building community, branding, and running creative content in-house

• A conversation on Taylor Swift’s food bank donations and philanthropy in music

• Reflections on favorite bands like Thrown, Papa Roach, Every Time I Die, and Lifesick

🤘 If you're a fan of authentic, emotionally raw metalcore, European heavy music, or the DIY ethics of passionate bands pushing boundaries, this episode is for you.
