    “This is the First ever! “Being Metal while…” episode that we released but took it down because this channel wasn’t created yet. The footage was taken when we were on a trip in Mexico. And I decided to metal it up \m/. The song we used was from a band we interviewed here on this channel, the bands name is Rotting Decay and the song used is “Slaves to Stagnation”.”
