In this episode, we speak with Jason Peppiatt of Australian technical thrash and death metal band, Psycroptic. Looking back over the lyrics he has composed for the band since 2012, Jason discusses how he departed from the prosaic narrative-driven sci-fi fantasy lyrics written by drummer Dave Haley and former vocalist Chalky, instead developing a lyrical style that more directly comments on the current state of our world. Jason’s lyrics have a strongly environmentalist bent, reflective of his reverence for the natural beauty of rural Tasmania. Contrary to suggestions posited in research on Australian extreme metal that environmentalism in metal lyricism encourages further neglect of the natural world, Jason’s lyrics strive to draw attention to the dire consequences of humans shirking our responsibilities as stewards of the land.
