This week's HardLore features special guest and co-founder of the greatest hardcore band in modern history: Sam Trapkin of Trapped Under Ice.
We discuss Sam finding hardcore music AFTER joining TUI, growing up in and around Baltimore, moshing hard, his lifelong connection with Hatebreed, TUI's stretch of world domination as a tour band, tidbits throughout writing and recording their mythical discography, their decision to temporarily call it a day and much, much more.
