After watching Freaked! and deciding it had the greatest theme song of all time, Dylan invited Jeremy Hunt from experimental noise rock band, Qoheleth, back on to discuss one of the coolest bands on the planet, Blind Idiot God. They're not exactly doom metal, but they fit very comfortably into the lexicon of heavy, underground music. From their collaborations with John Zorn to getting down with the dub, they delve into why this band rules as well as a possible Undertow conspiracy theory and if anyone actually refers to them as BIG.
They close out by seeing if Jeremy really is "The One" that Skillet is singing about in their song... "The One."
You can check out Qoheleth's music over at their Bandcamp page.
