Saw the In Human tour at the Whiskey, Sean gave me a pair of Vic Firth 5A wood tips. Saw the Focus tour at a 21 and over venue and I wasn’t old enough to get in, so Paul handed me his Steinberger guitar to carry in to see the show. Cannibal Corpse was headlining. Amazing memories, thank you Paul and thank you Sean RIP! 🤘🏼
My drummer Mike got Human the Tuesday it dropped. By the time he got home he had heard half of it. He called me as sooon as he got home and sais come over you have to hear this. At the time it was just him and me jamming in his basement. We called ourselves the Kinetic Bro. We could turn on a dime we were se attuned to each other. He put it on and for the entire CD I sat there slack jawed. When it was over we talked about certain parts and things we were doing that were similar. It reiforced the direction we were on. That would change of course once we got another guitarist and I had to slow down. We met Chuck on the Carnivore/Carcass tour when they came throygh Mass. Mike gave Chuck a demo tape I think. Not sure if he ever listened to it. He never got in touch with Mike about it. Big influence on how we wrote in some ways. I already had an established style and so did Mike. We were a little older than Chuck and Sean and the upcoming bands so they only influenced us in perhaps pacing and technical areas. I stiil listen to Death plenty when Im in the car. Usually alone.
Sean’s drumming was completely insane. At 19 no less. He was at a level of musicianship that very few attain. And such a humble guy. As is Paul. Thank you for this interview.
It's hard for me to get this across without sounding like I'm blowing smoke up your thing, but this interview was perfect, it showed others how it should be done, incredibly knowledgeable without feeling the need constantly prove background credentials every 5 minutes. (as I've witnessed others do) You deliver a question then sit back and listen, never interrupting or taking over your guest. Thank you very much for doing these, very insightful.
Absolute class this, thank you for doing this. I’ve got Human signed by Chuck, Sean and Paul on my wall in a glass frame, pride of place. I met Chuck once and he was such a good guy. All power to Cynic/Portal.
Paul is so eloquent. So sad that with all cynic accomplished that Malone and reinhardt weren't happy in their own skin. I'm man enough to admit I've cried 3 times over the profoundly 2 most influential bands that shaped me are gone. I loved portal, Aeon Spoke kept me from committing suicide in my late 20s , early 30s.
Brother, I know the feeling. I have cried many times over, and still tear up nearly every other time I listen to their Music. Maestro Sean Reinert and Maestro Sean Malone were Master Musicians. They were also both Human, so that can make everything seem like too much, sometimes. It still hurts, and I have never had this experience before of feeling so deeply affected emotionally by the music shared and the passing of 2 fellow Souls that I never met in Physical Life, and never saw them perform live, etc. but there's a very strong connection there, for sure. They were Advanced Beings, for sure. Intelligent Light Beings🙏
@CorinMio oh. Sorry man. Wow. I feel like crap. I could swear i read it. I'm not the type to say something like that without proper respect and doing research. Once again, so sorry.
Man, this interviewer is amazing. I love when interviewers makes it feel more like a conversation and less than just a series of questions because he keeps adding more question to the initial question. He sometimes reads my mind "oh shit ask him about this and that" and next thing you know he's asking that very question. Good shit man. Subscribed!
It's very cool to hear these interviews. I remember back in the early ninetees, when I started listening to Death, the whole Tampa Bay band scene and of course Cynic, the interviews with the bands always kinda disappointed me. To put the focus (ho hum) on the musicianship and personal relations looking back all those years, it really scratches an itch
Just discovered this channel with this video, I like your style of having a conversation rather than dryly asking questions. Flows really well. Cool to hear him talk about this stuff Out of curiousity what is the intro/outro song?
I feel the same about Murphy’s time with death, if given another album with any lineup up my choices always jump back and forth between the spiritual healing/human line ups both were amazing
"BE HERE NOW". Cool book. My old man was taking care of a rental property on a small lake in New Hampshire. Webster Lake. I went over there a few times to rake leaves with him. Turns out Richard Alpert had grown up right there on Webster lake. Crazy small world. And about 20 minutes away is another beautiful lake in the middle of nowhere, on the west side of the lake is a little village/ town called Hebron. Where...Alister Crowley had a little summer home. Strange aeons. What this has to do with anything, or remotely relative to the band DEATH? I dont know. Ram Dass is awesome. Crowley got some rockers juiced up as well.
so 2 guys happened to be gay so what? The music was fucking amazing! "Hid the sausage" sounds a little homophobic or at least juvenile. Maybe you're gen Z or something lol

Met Paul and Sean on their focus tour. Such warm loving souls. Still have their autographs. Will always be a fan!
I love the irony of attributing warm & loving souls to death metal musicians. In the end we're all just human & need love right? Awesome you met them.
@@jason_108 Humans who played on the Human :)
Same here, in Chicago with Cannibal Corpse. I think it was at the Oak Theater.
I regret not getting Dana's autograph.
That's awesome! Same here! Newport Music Hall (Columbus Ohio) in the 1990s. Didn't even stay for Cannibal Corpse.

Bad move. 1 in 5 people who learn their stuff becomes a brown hatter. Be careful.

As is Maestro Sean Malone🙏
Awesome interview found human when it came out it blew my mind
Took me to cynic and my brain died
Love these guys and this time

Man thanks that means a lot to hear since I really don’t know what I’m doing haha. All credit to Paul for bring so great to talk to

Reinert's death was due to a heart attack. Not suicide like Sean. Just wanted to clarify that.
@CorinMio oh. Sorry man. Wow. I feel like crap. I could swear i read it. I'm not the type to say something like that without proper respect and doing research. Once again, so sorry.
Great interview. Paul is so approachable and generous towards his fans. You just have to like the guy.
Man, this interviewer is amazing.

Appreciate that man 🙏🤘
Once again so damn good, thank you for these.
Appreciate it man! Were fun as hell to do
thank you theCombine Human truly is a masterpiece so different from everything else at that time revolutionary one of kind 🤘😉
Sean’s drumming on human is still on another level. I can’t think of 1 entire album that can compare to it! RIP SEAN & CHUCK
Another brilliant interview. Focus is such a wonderful album.
It's very cool to hear these interviews.

Amazing interview! Very insightful. Love paul and cynic.
Omg So excited for the cynic stuff coming out. Great chat also 🔥
Great interview, Paul seems like such a nice guy to chat with
Oh he is very sweet I assure you….a lot of sugar in the gas tank
What’s the song at the very beginning???
My favorite Death album.
The lick during the flattening chorus Paul plays still gives me trouble after 30 years of playing.
I love the intro song so much, I have been playing it on guitar. Who knows the name of the song, and the band playing it please!!???
My favorite Death album!!!! 💯🔥😎🤘
Focus was already reissued. They're doing a new one? I already bought 4 so far between the original and the remasters 😂
Just discovered this channel with this video, I like your style of having a conversation rather than dryly asking questions. Flows really well. Cool to hear him talk about this stuff
Out of curiousity what is the intro/outro song?
Thanks appreciate it! The intro is actually just something we wrote a long time ago and used for the show
Who else has gone back to listening to Human?
Hah had to check there is video of Death performing on Mexican TV in 1988 and sure Paul is playing guitar
It's a shame that they only did the one album, but Death always made incredible albums so maybe it's just as well
I feel the same about Murphy’s time with death, if given another album with any lineup up my choices always jump back and forth between the spiritual healing/human line ups both were amazing
🔥💚🔥
Paul is the Ram Dass of metal. Love him!
yeah, he liked to get his ass rammed alright.
@@Chloe-cv6wm Very clever. Take you long to think of that?
@@marchanson169 its not exactly a secret. he was a well known butt burglar
I think you mean the ram'd ass
"BE HERE NOW".
Cool book. My old man was taking care of a rental property on a small lake in New Hampshire. Webster Lake. I went over there a few times to rake leaves with him. Turns out Richard Alpert had grown up right there on Webster lake.

And about 20 minutes away is another beautiful lake in the middle of nowhere, on the west side of the lake is a little village/ town called Hebron. Where...Alister Crowley had a little summer home. Strange aeons.
What this has to do with anything, or remotely relative to the band DEATH? I dont know. Ram Dass is awesome. Crowley got some rockers juiced up as well.
What's on Sean's shirt?
Watchtower shirt
@@t.yamamoto2306 The one with the cross and the hammer and sickle? it's from an album or something?
Yeah, the shirt is "Control and Resistance" by Watchtower. Superb album.
Paul is correct; it all imploded after Spiritual Healing. I stopped listening after the first 3 records.
The Human period of Death is widely known as the "brown hatter" era. Lots of hide the sausage going on then.
Been a fan since 1988 & never heard of this era.
so 2 guys happened to be gay so what? The music was fucking amazing! "Hid the sausage" sounds a little homophobic or at least juvenile. Maybe you're gen Z or something lol
Never heard of the 'brown hatter' era...lol. Who gave you that information?
@@stavio12 It certainly was the brown hatter era. At least 2 of them were packing fudge.
@@davidshurterfoundermembero2885 Not that there's anything wrong with that.
