CANNIBAL CORPSE Drummer PAUL MAZURKIEWICZ On His Passion For Ice Hockey - "My Dad Skated Until He Was 70, So I'm Hoping To Follow In His Footsteps"; Audio

Cannibal Corpse drummer, Paul Mazurkiewicz, is featured in a new interview with the And Now The Band podcast, in which he talks about the band's ongoing touring plans and reflects on their 36-year history, highlighting memorable tours, such as the Mayhem Festival with Slayer and their first European shows.

Mazurkiewicz also shared his personal journey, including his 22-year vegetarianism and his passion for ice hockey, which he has played since childhood. He mentioned the band's influence on younger musicians and the evolving popularity of death metal. The conversation also touched on the band's coffee collaboration with Beheading and Brewing.

In regards to ice hockey, Paul shares: "I'm an ice hockey player, I've done my whole life playing ice hockey, and I still play to this day, and I'm sure I'll play until I can't move anymore, you know. That's what probably most hockey players do, you know. My dad skated until he was 70, so I'm hoping to follow his footsteps and just, you know, play as long as you can. I mean it's a great sport, I'm able to do it, so it's part of me."
