YOB's Mike Scheidt on How His Near-Death Experience Changed His Life As Well As The Band

Life after near death and heavier than ever!

Frank sits down with Yob frontman, Mike Scheidt, to get deep about his life and how it's changed after his near death experience, writing music for Our Raw Heart while not expecting to make it, how his condition got secretly worse than we originally reported, how his perspective of the band has changed, how they go about picking a set list with long epic songs, and so much more!

Get Yob's new album, Our Raw Heart, available via Relapse Records now.
