ABOUT THIS EPISODE
We’re joined by John Dillon and Max Codoceo of CODE:WORDS to Interview Under Fire to talk about the band’s rapid rise, signing with The Artery Foundation, and the emotional weight behind tracks like “Limerence” and “All Consuming.” For a band that’s only been around since 2023, CODE:WORDS already feels like something much bigger — blending melody, electronics, and heaviness into a sound that feels both modern and deeply personal.
We also get into the themes driving the music — obsession, burnout, emotional exhaustion, and self-preservation — along with the creative process behind building a band that wants people to feel something. Beyond the atmosphere and massive hooks, there’s a real sense of honesty at the core of what they’re creating, and it genuinely feels like they’re only beginning to scratch the surface of where this band can go.
