This year marked its tenth anniversary, with over 80,000 people attending across the weekend.We teamed up with our friends at Atlantic Records to bring our sister brand, Bad World, to ComplexCon for the first time, along with our very own physical Vault.

It’s caused a fair bit of chaos online, with reactions ranging from fascination to outright horror. Which, to be fair, we can understand.But there’s more to the interview than bathwater. We also got onto how Blood Records started, why we launched our sister brand Bad World, and our o
