In this episode of Ampocalypse, Damian FitzGerald is joined by Myke Terry of Volumes to celebrate the band’s 15-year journey and the release of their powerful new album Mirror’s Touch. The conversation explores how Volumes have evolved across the years, the creative direction behind the new record, and how the band continue to push their sound forward while staying true to the heavy, melodic identity that has defined them.

Myke shares insight into the writing and recording process behind Mirror’s Touch, discussing the diverse sounds across the album, the collaborations that helped shape the record, and the excitement of bringing these songs to life on stage. The conversation also touches on how music consumption has evolved in the streaming era, the continued importance of physical media for fans and collectors, and how bands like Volumes navigate the changing landscape of the modern music industry.

Then the big red button is pushed and the Ampocalypse arrives. In the second half of the episode, Myke faces a hypothetical end-of-the-world survival scenario, putting his creativity, instincts, and sense of humour to the test as he figures out how he would survive when civilisation begins to collapse.
