Drummer Matt Bowles is the rhythm anchor of W. Virginia's groove-thrash merchants Byzantine! We get into how he got the Byzantine gig, and being a fan of them for years prior to landing said gig, the bizarre life cycle of Cicada’s, acid/shroom trips/general stories of getting weird in the woods, UFO’s and bull mastiffs, huffing gas, playing in jam bands, recording their most recent record “The Cicada Tree”, opening for Sacred Reich, West Virginia life, and all sorts of good shit and bizarro rants!!!https://www.facebook.com/Byzantinewv/https://byzantine.bandcamp.com/#CBBP Sponsor: http://www.neworleansrecordpress.com/
