Burning Minds With BRETT CAMPBELL From PALLBEARER

Interview by Kris Peters
Renowned doom metal merchants PALLBEARER make their return to Australia in March 2025 for an electrifying tour, promising to deliver their signature blend of haunting melodies and crushing riffs. Joining them on all dates will be special guests UK doom metal titans CONAN.
The 2024 release of Mind Burns Alive finds Pallbearer navigating the space between disquiet and serenity with a singular intensity. At times poetic and blistering, their fifth full length is a heartfelt meditation on isolation, trauma and mental breakdown, framed by the possibility of redemption and the quiet aching beauty of escape.
Known for their colossal riffs and unrelenting heaviness, Conan has carved a unique niche in the metal scene, drawing fans with their atmospheric yet punishing sound. This tour comes on the heels of their critically acclaimed album, Evidence of Immortality, which showcases their evolution while staying true to their doom-laden roots.
HEAVY spoke with Pallbearer frontman Brett Campbell before he boarded the flight to find out what we can expect..
In the interview Brett told us what has changed with the band since their last visit eight years ago, what to expect from their live show, choosing Conan as touring partners and why, their recent album Mind Burns Alive and how much of that they will be p[laying, the reaction to that album, gauging an albums' success in the modern era, the early days of the band, future plans and more.
