The podcast captures unguarded, human conversations with artists at every stage of their journey. From extreme metal and hardcore to experimental and genre-defying projects, Music Is My Life documents the culture, struggles, and passion that keep heavy music alive.
Hi, I'm Lochlan
I host Music Is My Life, and I come to these conversations with years spent inside heavy music culture, both behind the scenes and behind the microphone. Iām less interested in press-cycle answers and more interested in the real story, how someone got here, what it cost them, and what keeps them going.
