[Archive] ISC Podcast Ep. 14 (Interview) James 'Human Furnace' Bulloch, Vocalist of RINGWORM Talks New Album, Touring, Creative Process
See here for our interview with vocalist James ‘Human Furnace’ Bulloch from 2023, from our sadly now-defunct website (RIP). On the rarest of occasions, there comes along a band that latches on and annihilates your ears with such a unique combination of sounds, you find yourself dislodged from the monotony of every-day music, and rooted firmly in the terrain of admiration. Cleveland Ohio’s Ringworm are no strangers to this concept and have been fascinating metalheads with their unorthodox melodies for over 30 years.
