Welcome to this weeks episode of Heavy Metal History. My guest is Zak Vargas from the now defunct band Elysia. Zak came on the podcat to talk the 18 year history of the bands debut album "Masochist" which is currently getting a remaster\reissue treatment on May the 10th.

Zak took me through the entire history of the record track by track discussing each song as well as their timeline with demos and other songs and how the reissue came to be over the past few years. We also discuss a lot of the lyrical themes and even breifly touch on "Lion of Judas" and the bands break up.

Masochist, is an album that needs little introduction within the global Deathcore scene, as it's become one of the most sought-after 2000s era collectibles. Original copies will cost you upwards of $500, if you can even find one to purchase!

This deluxe edition CD features all-new artwork by Alexandre Goulet (All Out War, Ion Dissonance, Despised Icon); a fresh new remaster by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege; plus a 24-page booklet with lyrics, photos, flyers, and retrospective insights from vocalist Zak Vargas.

"Masochist" will be streaming everywhere on May the 10th and if you want a physical copy you can follow the link below and order it!
