🎧 Whitechapel’s Brandon Zackey joins The Kevin Powell Podcast at Louder Than Life to talk about joining the band, his metal drumming background, Hymns of Dissonance, and what it’s really like playing festivals this big.
Brandon opens up about going from marching band to deathcore, teaching percussion, and his path from Enterprise Earth to Whitechapel. He shares insight into his setup with Mapex and Zildjian, his pre-show routine, and the advice every aspiring musician needs to hear: “Be cool, play tight, and keep the gig.”
We also dive into his gaming habits on tour (including his portable Xbox rig) and what video game he crowns as the greatest of all time.
