With the aim of making the heaviest, most aggressive record they could, from listening to ‘Disorder of Mind,’ Southampton’s Desolated have succeeded by producing a chaotic record full of chugging riffs and raw emotion.
We caught up with guitarist Rich Unsworth as we asked him to take part in our “If I…” questionnaire. Rich showed his love for Megadeath and told us which former London venue he would of liked to of played, and which bands (and rappers) would be his ideal festival lineup. Read on to find out more.
