Matty Connolly (guitar in Euclid, drums in Shapethrower, bass in Edict & producer at Mind's Mirror Audio) returns to the show to chat about managing creative burnout, balancing all the projects he's involved with, what he's learned from producing other bands, why he would've been described as the "bad kid", and so much more - enjoy!
