The podcast, which is separate from their already popular Bad Christian Podcast, focuses on the behind the scenes aspect of the songs. Guitarist/Producer Matt Carter, and vocalist Toby Morrell, get together and talk about the songwriting process and the techniques used to record some of the tracks. The real highlight of the podcast is Carter isolating vocals or instrumental parts, and explaining why things sound the way they do.

This week's episode is about track 9, "Go Wrong Young Man," which Carter says is among the more unique Emery songs. "This is one fun tune. Built off of a a 2 measure guitar loop, this track uses alternate harmonizations and time signatures to make the different sections of the song be distinct. This one also has a rather experimental approach to vocal arranging and production, making this one of the weirdest Emery songs ever."

BREATHEcast reviewed You Were Never Alone last week. Read the entire piece here and check out an excerpt below:

"Overall You Were Never Alone is just what Emery fans were waiting for since the release of their last album We Do What We Want. The previous album did not have Shelton on it, and with him back on this record, they really take advantage of the vocal possibilities. All the harmonies are perfect, and their back and forth is just as good as ever. The guitars are crisp and creative, the bass lines are memorable, and the drums are powerful. Lyrically, the album is moving and packs a punch that can only be delivered through its menacing screams. This album is also put together so well by Carter, who did all the production work. The Emery boys of Morrell, Shelton, Carter, Josh Head, and Dave Powell sound just as good as ever together."
