This week, Remfry and Simon sit down with Helen Tytherleigh, bass player for Hundred Year Old Man. Helen's shirt pick takes us to a monstrous five band tour from 2010, topped by Veil Of Maya, but the shirt in question was sold by the opening band, Volumes.
As well as talking about the things that are happening in the HYOM camp, we talk about the birth of the UK tech-metal scene out of tours like this, Helen's involvement in core team organising Tech Fest, and switching from playing technical prog in her previous band to post-metal with HYOM.
Remfry wasn't as deeply involved in the Tech Fest community, so Simon and Helen bring him up to speed, and the wide-ranging conversation also dips into onstage confidence, the experiences of being a woman in a (still) male-dominated scene and plenty more besides.
