@@pleasuretokill It's hard for me to remember if that was indeed my first metal show or not. I really think it was. But I also remember seeing Static-X a handful of times back in the early 2000s so it's a bit skewed. The Freddy vs Jason Soundtrack was my introduction to just about every band on that bill strangely enough and SO many of my favorite bands still to this day. Killswitch Engage with Howard's first contribution with the band "When Darkness Falls". In Flames' "Trigger" was the first song by them I'd ever heard. Chimaira's "Army of Me".

@@YungGrandson in actuality, I was shocked and disappointed in Tim when the news of that broke out. He was one of my musical heroes in high school. Yeah, his ex wife was a nasty, scheming bitch but having her taken out isn't the way at all. He should have played the long game and exposed her for who she truly is instead of essentially making a martyr out of her, which only helps her own agenda further. But he was also roided the fuck out and being an overaggressive idiot who clearly wasn't thinking rationally

Loved that they got into trauma and the debate of therapy cost & accessibility. I appreciate their vulnerability and want to echo the encouragement to go balls deep into your healing.

This interview answered all of my unanswered questions about AILD and what happened and why with the band. Good job. 👍

Absolutely LOVED this interview. Very interesting. Thank you a thousand times. Liked and subscribed.

This was a 10/10 podcast man. I understand people may not like Tim and probably never will. However I think it also shows what kind of people we are if we aren't willing to give someone else a second chance. The man has done his time, has made an effort to help others not go down the same path. You don't have to like the man Tim was, but hopefully one day you can like the man he became. I just don't see the point in constantly bringing up someone's lowest moment over and over again as if these fans were victims themselves. Why not appreciate that someone who's done prison time and is striving to make amendments and help others, instead of constantly shitting on them? I hope people like Tim can help inspire other inmates to do the same and find a cause after prison. Cause our system won't.

​@@anthonyfrombelowYou are posting a ton of reply comments on this video to everyone who shows even the smallest amount of support for Tim. Don't you have a life to live? Why not just ignore Tim, and pretend he doesn't exist if it offends you so much that people are willing to give him a second chance? Just because people support Tim doesn't mean they don't condone his heinous crime of solicitation to murder his ex-wife. You can be judged for past mistakes, learn, and try to become a better person. Not everyone who does wrong will, but I have witnessed said positive change in my own family as I had someone go through something similar. It took me a long time to accept what my family member did, but eventually I was able to learn acceptance, and spread love. It just takes maturity to understand that everyone makes mistakes some of them more serious than other's. Some of them unforgivable. I personally don't forgive Tim's prior actions, but I do believe that he has made a consistent attempt to change for the better. I hope that you never do anything that hurts another person physically, mentally, or spiritually because you obviously lack compassion or any ounce of forgiveness regardless of context, reason, or logic. So it wouldn't be paid forward on your end.

Wow, that was a great interview! Thanks for sharing!

Definitely hit a spot when talking about insurance not covering therapy. That is needed now more than ever in society, and it should not be limited to just “10 visits, then it is on you until next year.” A lot of people really need it. These aren’t bad people, they just need some help from therapists to find out why they do things and how to be able to function properly. I am grateful for therapy, and not ashamed to admit I go. Also, first episode I came upon, you got a new fan! Thanks to you and Tim for taking the time and putting this out🤘🏻😈🤘🏻

My favourite live performance by far is still when Tim did wake up with you guys at the memorial show 🙏🤘❤️🖤

AILD are gods to me. Their sound, riffs, breakdowns, vocals are downright filthy! I stand behind you Tim and can’t wait to see you at the intersection july 19th in Grand Rapids Michigan! Wish you could get the originals members back together for that show!

This is a real bold interview - respect to Chris Garza

Great Interview. I think it's time for Tim to finally bury the bad times and memory hole all that stuff. I got to catch AILD in Tucson a while back when this latest tour began and they were great.

As I lay dying were a huge part of my growth when it comes to metal, their earliest material were some of the heaviest at the time and bands like them opened my eyes along with misery signals of how incredible metal was becoming musically.

As a fan this has been a healing interview for myself as well. I didn't know about the video the guys uploaded talking about how they felt and what they've been through and I looked it up because of this interview. When I first saw Tim's name on this episode I was like WTF!? Why are people giving this MF a platform? I was legit never going to forgive Tim and never listen to his music again...but I've found myself listening to their new material and connecting with it. Thank you for this.
