Episode 253: Botch

I listened to every album by mathcore band Botch. Made up of musicians who would go on to form Minus the Bear, Russian Circles, and Sumac, Botch was a brutal and excitingly technical band. A must listen for fans of Dillinger Escape Plan, Coalesce, or just rad heavy music in general.
