A near-decade journey led to this point. After three seminal albums with Mushroomhead, Waylon retreated from music, only for it to draw him back in 2016. He resurfaced at the helm of A Killer’s Confession, delivering three cult favorite albums—Unbroken [2017], The Indifference of Good Men [2019], and Remember [2021]. Along the way, the band tallied tens of millions of streams in addition to collaborating with everyone from Brian “Head” Welch of Korn and Love And Death to Chad Gray of Mudvayne and HELLYEAH. Joined by bassist JP Cross, guitarist James Skritch, and duo drums Will Spodnik and Kegan King, they also captivated crowds on tour.  During 2022, Waylon experienced an epiphany. “I had never thought about following a concept like this before,” he goes on. “However, I decided to focus, live up to the name, and be A Killer’s Confession.”  He hit the studio with collaborators and producers Dusty Boles [Make Me Famous] and Evan Mckeever [Nine Shrines]. Shocking this vision to life, he emerged with the ten-track equivalent of “falling down a YouTube rabbit hole of unsolved mysteries.” The single “Greed” revolves around a menacing keyboard loop and a head-nodding guitar stomp. This whirlwind bleeds into a melodically magnetic chorus, “You take and you take but it’s never enough to satisfy all your greed.” “‘Greed’ is one of the Seven deadly sins,” he notes. “I’m not talking to any victim. It’s more of a warning. Social media is all-encompassing. People get greedy and flex for attention. Other than the band, I try to stay off social media as much as I can. Everyone flaunts what they have, and followers or ‘friends’ base their lives on this rat race. Don’t let it get a hold of you. You can’t take any of these material things with you. Personally, I won’t let it be the death of me.” “A Killer’s Confession is all of us,” he leaves off. “It’s not just the band. It’s the people who listen, dive in, and learn from it. It’s each and every one of us deep inside. We all have killed off something in our lives. I hope you find some solace in the record. We don’t have to be so divided. We’re more alike than we think we are.”
