In this episode, Tom welcomes Mike Sugars, frontman of Psycho-Frame, to talk about their upcoming debut album, “Salvation Laughs in the Face of a Grieving Mother,” out July 25 on SharpTone Records.
🔥 With vinyl, CD, and tape preorders already SOLD OUT, Psycho-Frame is a force in the new wave of authentic, emotionally intense deathcore. Mike and Tom talk through the band’s rapid rise, the philosophy behind their music, and what it means to build a community instead of chasing streams.
