This week on the Zen Perry Project we welcome Brandon Gallagher, the Bushwick-based mastermind best known for his blisteringly brutal one-man experimental industrial project TRACE AMOUNT . Recorded shortly before a run of December NYC shows (sorry this is dropping after the fact!) and in the thick of recording his second full length, Brandon weighs in on balancing freelance work to support artistic pursuits, reflects on striking rhythm with everything from his equipment to whom he collaborates with, and ponders the place for harsh charged music in a harsh charged world.

This week on the Zen Perry Project we get the chance to talk to Barrett (Guitar/Vox), Nacho (Bass), and Cole (Drums) of SLEEPWELL , a supremely badass genre-defying act ascending out of Brooklyn. The band has been secretive to the point that despite not knowing any of the members names before they joined the zoom call, we had a blast talking about their well composed rage that simmers into a twisted carnage of relentlessly punishing breakdowns, Barrett's writing & sobriety, and a harrowing story about how a boat fire almost led to being "disappeared" by Russian authorities. HIGHLY recommend checking out their recently released EP "Buried Young" and to buckle up for a great conversation.
