On this episode of the Vulgar Display of Podcast, we’re joined by Zac Mayfield, drummer for dayseeker and Texas metalcore mainstays Oh, Sleeper. Zac dives deep into his journey with Dayseeker, the creative process behind their latest and heaviest era yet, upcoming tours, gaming, and what it truly means to connect with fans on stage.

Zac, who joined Dayseeker during the Dark Sun era, talks about stepping into the band while that album was nearly complete and how he was encouraged to fully “do his thing” on their newest release, Creature In The Black Night. 

The conversation also turns to Oh, Sleeper, who have officially wrapped recording their upcoming album with longtime collaborator Andreas Magnusson. Zac describes Andreas as an “unofficial fifth member” of the band, highlighting how his background as a drummer strengthens their creative communication. The new Oh, Sleeper album is currently in mixing and mastering, with a single expected in the coming months and a full release slated for later this year.

We also break down Dayseeker’s massive touring plans, including:

May 15 – St. Louis, MO – The Pageant with Northlane, Wind Walkers, and sace6

An upcoming European tour with Motionless In White
