April Rose Gabrielli’s journey is nothing short of shocking! In this explosive interview, she opens up about a near-death experience that nearly ended everything—her life, her career, and her dreams. But instead of breaking her, it made her unstoppable. Now, with her new band Maiasaura, she’s ready to bring nu-metal roaring back.

But is the world ready for a new nu-metal revival? Gabrielli thinks so, and she’s betting everything on it. She also dives deep into the brutal realities of modern touring, how the music industry has changed, and how her husband and bandmate Jacob Kulick became her rock during the toughest times. This is raw, unfiltered, and absolutely must-watch for any metal fan.

Is Maiasaura the future of nu-metal, or is the genre just a relic of the past?
