Ahead of Napalm Death‘s second tour of Australia in support of Apex Predator – Easy Meat, Metal Wani’s Jake Patton had the opportunity to catch up with Frontman Barney Greenway to discuss the tour, what it is that makes Napalm Death keep returning to Australia, and why there seems to have been an increase in appetite for the band to extensively tour over the last few years.
They also discuss the current status of new music from the band, and what involvement guitarist Mitch Harris will play in the new material.
They also cover the bands performance opening Glastonbury Festival, and the now highly-publicized attempt by Barney to teach British MP Ed Miliband how to growl.
They finally close off by discussing the bands 2015 plea to Indonesian President Joko Widodo to bestow clemency upon the then condemned Bali Nine drug smugglers that leads into an interesting dialogue on the importance of life and humanity itself.
