It Came From The Basement

Hi! It sure has been a while since I’ve done one of these, and I’m thrilled to be back with my good friend Eric Palermo to talk about his recent debut album For Vanity Purposes available now wherever you get your music. Eric has been a prominent member of the scene for many years, throwing crazy basement shows at his childhood home and road warrioring with his gothic melodic hardcore band Dumpweed. For the last few years though, Eric has delved even deeper into the goth scene rebranding as Eric Raven and putting out a slew of pummeling club tracks that blend dark gothic synth textures with catastrophic metalcore catharsis. On this episode we discussed his new album For Vanity Purposes, the north eastern tour he just returned from promoting the album, and some philosophical queries that come with being a musician in a music community. Thank you for taking the time to check out this episode of It Came From The Basement, even if it was just for vanity purposes.
