TPD #160 - Bec Thorwesten (Terminal Sleep)

Publicado 2024-07-11
Our guest this week is resident bad bitch and meme queen Bec Thorwesten from Naarm/Melbourne heavy hardcore bruisers Terminal Sleep, who just dropped a brand new two-track single, “Spineless / Shadows,” along with some moody remixes.

Bec joins the show to chat about the band’s formation, channeling her inner rage on stage, the anxiety of becoming a role model, looking after her voice, and finding purpose through artistic expression.

    Dude, she screams with her whole body. Every live recording I’ve seen (I’m in the States, lol I haven’t seen them live yet) you can almost hear her without mic. Such a monster vocalist
  • @china1013
    I hate the fact that they're getting more and more popular. I wanted their music all to myself. LoL. They deserve the recognition. I've been a fan since day 1.
  • @nabrute
    Just discovered them last week, best band I’ve heard in a while! Got chills watching the Spineless video Please come to the states one of these days! Also I had a big grin when she mentioned liking ETID, one of my favorite bands RIP
  • SO drawn to Bec’s vocal style and presence. Terminal Sleep is my medicine right now! This Philly metalhead will be ready for TS indoctrination when they come here! 🤘

    2 weeks ago I saw Cece’s (crawling, algor mortis) interview and now this. Lots of badass bands from Australia. Hope they’d tour the US soon.
  • @AhMrJIPresume
    Looking forward to hearing more from them - she seems like a great personality with a solid attitude. Best of luck to the band and hopefully a UK tour in the near future
  • @Hellseeker1
    Band makes only bangers, thanks YouTube recommendations
  • Hoping, hoping they are touring overseas in Europe or the USA in the near future - I heard nothing but good news as a fan. Definitely could do a flight to Europe from the USA if they tour there.
  • @pcgamingguru9611
    man she is so freaking cute..great vocalist, underrated band,..Bec this old retired 53 yo combat Vet wants you guys to tour the States..a show with Cannibal Corpse, Lamb of God, Kittie or others would be a hell of a lineup

    Great interview. I've been watching and listening (and moshing) to TS since their second show onwards. You were bang on about the representation to many young women, as well as Bec's somesort of mix up with her vocals on these two new tracks. They're always been great but these new ones feel a little more pronounced per lyric. I feel like with these two new tracks, I heard them for the first time and I pretty much heard every lyric, as opposed to a couple of listen throughs for other tracks before I really heard was the band was trying to say. To see Melbourne HC so healthy with bands like TS releasing stuff left and right, shows healthy as fuck attendance, I feel like we're watching something super special. I am here for it, and I'll be having a boogie at Skorn 👏 👏
