Trip To The Morgue Crash The Zach Moonshine Show: Thrash, Chaos, and a Whole Lot of Grave Digging

Southern California crossover thrash crew Trip To The Morgue stormed into The Zach Moonshine Show for one of the wildest episodes we’ve had in a while. With their new album Toe Tagged and Body Bagged dropping via Wormholedeath, the timing couldn’t have been better. These guys came ready to swing, joke, riff, and tear through the whole history of this new record like they were ripping open a body bag.

I kicked the show off blasting their track Digging Your Grave , featuring none other than Mitch Harris (Napalm Death, Righteous Pigs) . And like I said live, those chugs and that breakdown… man, that’s the kind of riff work that reminds you why this genre refuses to die. The band got into the whole backstory too. They even talked about leaning into their Righteous Pigs influence on purpose to craft something Mitch could step into naturally. And yeah, it worked.

The guys also talked about leveling up from a three-piece to a four-piece, which really opened the door for bigger hooks, bigger riffs, and a whole lot more power on stage. We dug into influences, old school thrash roots, crossover energy, writing processes, gear, and all the insanity they carry with them on the road. And if you’ve been spinning the record, you already know it’s nasty from front to back.

Below you can check out the full interview as it premiered on YouTube.

And as always, the full podcast version of The Zach Moonshine Show is up on Mixcloud with ALL the new music releases, listener requests, underground discoveries, and the usual madness that happens when the chat goes off the rails.
