Send us a Text Message.On this episode I talk all things werewolves and horror with my friend Matt Wilcock of the bands Werewolves, Abramelin,The Antichrist Imperium and Shotgun Mistress. Matt is one hell of a musician and a huge horror fan. I had a killer time talking with Matt and it definitely won't be the last time. (Ending song) Werewolves: The Company Of Wolves https://werewolvesdeathmetal.bandcamp.com/album/die-for-ushttps://abramelin1.bandcamp.com/https://akercocke.bandcamp.com/album/antichristhttps://shotgunmistress.com/https://apocalypticwitchcraft.bandcamp.com/album/the-antichrist-imperiumSynth Outro by Abraxas HornMy email and social links:Brandonlegion666@yahoo.comTwitter: Horrorwolf666Instagram: Brandonlegion666 Facebook: Horrorwolf666Website: www.horrorwolf666.com(Merchandise)https://www.teepublic.com/user/the-horrorwolf666-podcasthttps://the-horrorwolf666-podcast.creator-spring.com/

Interview by Kris PetersIf you used only the sheer brutality of their music as a guide, it would be easy and highly probable to imagine Werewolves to be a serious metal band. Their music is soul-destroying and intense, pummelling your senses from every angle before regrouping to smash you in places you didn't even know existed.No shit.But when you listen to or read an interview with any of the three members - or even read the quotes in their press releases - then it becomes blatantly obvious that there is a plethora of riches simmering just below the surface that generally manifest themselves by way of humour or self-depreciation.Because Werewolves are not a by-the-numbers, regulated behemoth, They are a formidable force of nature with a laconic, Australian sense of humour who actually give little fucks to what is happening around them as long as they get to immortalise the problem in verse.Ten years ago a fresh and ambitious death metal outfit featuring three well-known musicians of the Australian heavy scene - Sam Bean (The Berzerker), Matt Wilcock (The Berzerker, Akercocke) and Dave Haley (Psycroptic, Ruins, Blood Duster) - boldly declared their intent to release one each year for the next decade.Fast-forward to today and Werewolves are about to successfully hit the halfway point with their fifth entry Die For Us, which will be released over several platforms starting with Bandcamp on July 12 then everywhere else from July 19.HEAVY caught up with vocalist/bass player Sam Bean last night to find out just how brutal album number five is going to be."This one's a little bit different," he measured when we asked how he was feeling about Die For Us. "It's a self-release this one, so there's been a lot of moving parts. Whereas with the other ones, we'd just roll up to each album release basically in a carriage with horses and the red carpet treatment (smiles), this time around there was a lot of moving, spinning plates that we were having to keep spinning. Normally, we'd already be on our victory lap even before the album is released. Now we're very much just staring at that date and crossing the fingers that all goes well. We're quite a bit more nervous this time around that everything happens as it should. As for the response for the album, we don't worry about that. We never worry about that. We've got a pretty heinous slab of death metal that we know is absolutely stupendous, and that the title track - the very first thing that anyone will hear when listening to the album - is just gonna knock both their socks off and then some. We're not worried about that. We're worried about the boring bullshit out back of house (laughs)."In the full interview, Sam talks more about the musical side of Die For Us, the brutality of their music and how the band gets that tough exterior, having Rok from Sadistik Exekution guest on one of the tracks, keeping up with their promise of one album a year for ten years, the pros and cons of releasing an album yourself, the term Caveman Death Metal that has been thrust upon them, maintaining the rage and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

There's no better way to end a year than by catching up with my friend Sam Loynes. Sam is a member of Akercocke, The Antichrist Imperium, Voices, Anaal Nathrakh and he's recently launched a new project called Samuel Joseph & The Guiding Hand. On this episode, he updates us on all of those projects, we discuss his personal evolution as a musician and vocalist and we also reflect on his memories of Killing Joke.Then it's on to my news rant, where I round up the latest singles for judgment including tracks by Chelsea Wolfe, Praise The Plague, Koldbrann… AND one of the most shocking “top notch” moments in the history of the show.PLUS - Icelandic black metallers, Helfro, shifts multiple gears for their sophomore record, “Tálgröf”, and I showcase another cut by UK sludge / doom newcomers, Grief Prison.▶️SUPPORT THE BANDS FEATURED ON THIS EPISODEGrief Prisonhttps://tristofviscosity.bandcamp.com/ The Antichrist Imperiumhttps://apocalypticwitchcraft.bandcamp.com/ Akercockehttps://akercocke.bandcamp.com/ Anaal Nathrakhhttps://anaalnathrakh.bandcamp.com/ Voiceshttps://voiceslondon.bandcamp.com/ Helfrohttps://helfroofficial.bandcamp.com/ ▶️SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST https://youtube.com/c/IntoTheNecrosphere ▶️STREAM & DOWNLOADAmazon Musichttps://amzn.to/3epNJ4KSpotifyhttps://spoti.fi/3iKqbIPApple Podcastshttps://apple.co/38wDYhi ▶️SOCIAL MEDIAFacebookhttps://www.facebook.com/intothenecrosphere Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/intothenecrosphere Twitterhttps://twitter.com/inecrosphere ▶️INTO THE NECROSPHERE MERCHhttps://into-the-necrosphere.creator-spring.com▶️THE HORSEMEN OF THE PODCASTING APOCALYPSE Horrorwolf666https://thehorrorwolf666podcast.buzzsprout.com/ Everything Went Blackhttps://everythingwentblack.podbean.com/ Necromaniacshttps://necromaniacs.podbean.com/ Sol Noxhttps://www.solnoxpodcast.podbean.com/ Iblis Manifestationshttps://linktr.ee/iblismanifestationspodcast

The intro to the show is "In The Temple of the Serpent" by Lowen.

Werewolves are launching their cracking album for 2022 on June 24 titled, From The Cave To The Grave, which is a great opportunity to catch up with Matt and discuss the album, his stellar guitar performance and other interesting topics.

Melbourne rock outfit Shotgun Mistress have been making waves since the release of their self titled debut album mid last year.They burst onto the scene with a swagger and assuredness that could almost have been mistaken for arrogance had they not delivered everything they promised and more.Originally formed by Matt Wilcock - better known for his work in death metal outfits The Bezerker, Akercocke and Abramelin - Shotgun Mistress are Australia's answer to the Sunset Strip bands of LA, but with twice the purpose.On the eve of their massive Australian tour with fellow Melbourne rockers Electric Mary, drummer David Lee joined HEAVY for a light hearted chat about the past, present and future of Shotgun Mistress.With the recent state of cancelled or postponed shows, we start by asking if he has allowed himself to get excited for the tour yet?"I don't know man," he laughed. "I'm waking up pretty early tomorrow morning! It will be like, is this real or is it going to fuck me again? Let's wait and see what happens tomorrow morning! We're leaving early so we'll hopefully be at the airport around 7 am and then we'll be down at Tassie by about 10 and fingers crossed we can keep moving around and let's get this done this time. It's been two years in the making for us all so we just really want to get out and party now, and rock and roll."It seems only natural that playing live - like anything that takes practice - is something that could quickly desert you with a prolongued absence, and Dave honestly affirms that theory."You do lose a little bit of the feel once you haven't done it for such a long time," he measured, "but I tell you what, it only takes one or two songs and then you're straight back in. You get the energy running with all the crowds and everything again and create some mayhem and have as much fun with the crowd as possible. That's what it's all about. We play the music, they bang their heads and enjoy themselves and scream and shout and drink plenty of alcohol and we all have a good time together!"In the full interview Dave runs us through the tour and what to expect, speaks about touring with Electric Mary and why the two bands make a good fit, getting back out there and playing to your fans, progress on album number two and more.

The great and powerful Brock Van Dijk of Panzerfaust returns to the podcast this week to discuss the war on free speech, the fall of Western democracy and other similarly uplifting topics, along with giving an update on the next installment in the stellar “Suns of Perdition” quadrilogy. I also give you my honest thoughts on the new Immolation record, “Acts Of God”, trawl through the latest metal news and react to new singles by Kampfar, Nite, Amon Amarth and more.Support the bands featured on this episode:PANZERFAUST:https://panzerfaust.bandcamp.com/ IMMOLATION: https://immolation.bandcamp.com/ AKERCOCKE:https://akercocke.bandcamp.com/ SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST ▶️ https://youtube.com/c/IntoTheNecrosphere LISTEN ON: AMAZON MUSIC: https://amzn.to/3epNJ4KSPOTIFY: https://spoti.fi/3iKqbIPAPPLE PODCASTS: https://apple.co/38wDYhiFOLLOW THE SHOW ON:FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/intothenecrosphere INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/intothenecrosphere TWITTER: https://twitter.com/inecrosphere MERCH:https://into-the-necrosphere.creator-spring.com/

It's time for another review from Steve and Remfry on Riot Act Reviews, where we collect our thoughts regarding a significant or interesting recent album that our hosts have heard. On this episode we are diving deeper into the underground than we have previously done so on this portion of the show by looking at Breaking the Trauma Bond, the 4th studio album from London goth-black metal band Voices. Featuring members of cult UK extreme metal band Akercocke, Voices received a little bit of attention and critical love for 2014's London album but it is here on their fourth record where Voices have really found their… er… voice. This is a sixteen track, 68 minute meld of Danzig, Killing Joke, Satyricon, Bauhaus and Type O Negative, and we wanted to bring it to your attention. https://youtu.be/akywKvHcx_g (An Audience of Mannequins (Official Lyric Video)) https://churchroadrecords.limitedrun.com/products/709987-voices-breaking-the-trauma-bond-pre-order (Like the sound of the record?

Matt is one of Australia most gifted and productive extreme metal and rock guitarists. His new outfit is the full-on rock of Shotgun Mistress and he's on hand to tell us all about the group's debut. We touch on a heap of topics and cover his many other bands as well.

The LGBT+ heavy metal podcast this week looks at how Akercocke's signature anthem is both incredibly evil and camper than a row of tents at Christmas, and what connects it to Liza Minelli and musical theatre. Naturally.We also dive deep into the tricky issue of being fully and visibly out at metal shows and festivals, and our experiences of this.Plus there's our usual music natterings, which might even see us agree occasionally.[EDIT - this episode is from the early days of the podcast. Sound quality may not be as good as later episodes.]

This week I’m joined by one of my favourite guitarists on the planet, Matt Wilcock (Werewolves, Abramelin, The Antichrist Imperium, Shotgun Mistress) for the second installment in the countdown of my fifty favourite death metal bands. We weigh the merits of classic and newer bands, whilst getting an update on some of Matt’s own musical projects along with the way.

Join host Holly “F’n” Fox for another Diabolus Templum! Dark and brooding tunes from Lifeless, Blaze Of Perdition, Akercocke, Merrimack, Uruk-Hai, Craft, Funeral Mist, Wisdom...

Making his long overdue debut on Into The Necrosphere this week is the mighty Matt Wilcock, formerly of Akercocke, now shredding for Satan in The Antichrist Imperium and Werewolves (amongst other projects). We discuss his music career, growing up in Australia, death metal vocals and (gasp) Guns 'n Roses. Plus - I review the new Blaze of Perdition record, "The Harrowing of Hearts".Follow the show on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook (@intothenecrosphere).This podcast is also available on YouTube

Finally making his Into The Necrosphere debut, my guest on this episode is Jason Mendonca of the peerless Akercocke. We chat about the band reforming and the response to their most recent record, Renaissance In Extremis, as well as - inevitably - the cinematic magnificence of The Exorcist. Then on 'What I'm Cranking This Week', I sing the praises of Cavusum, Sanctvs and The Great Ones.

On this episode of Into The Necrosphere, I talk to the prodigiously talented Sam Loynes of Voices, Akercocke, The Antichrist Imperium and Shrines about joining one of his favourite bands, the genius of 'There Will Be Blood' and a whole lot more. Then on 'What I'm Cranking This Week', I review the new Gatecreeper, Panzerfaust and Tronos records.

Robert Cooper takes over as we review one of his picks, Akercocke - Renaissance in Extremis! Akercocke are an English extreme metal band from London, formed in 1997 by Jason Mendonca and David Gray. The band also features Paul Scanlan and Nathanael Underwood. A new album, Renaissance in Extremis, was released on 25 August 2017, Which was their first full length album in a decade since 2007's 'Antichrist'.

Innovative, brutal and wholly unique, Akercocke have continually flouted musical convention to create an undefinable and unmistakable sound, one that defies classification by being undeniably idiosyncratic. Returning to the scene after a decade long hiatus, Sue chats to frontman Jason Mendonca and drummer David Gray, about touring their newest album, the writing process, and the demise of individualism in apathetic times. The key to their success? Well, it may just come surrounded by a layer of sausage meat and tasty breadcrumbs...

Now is the time. This is the hour. Ours is the magic. Ours is the power. Still bewitching and beguiling two decades after it’s release, The Craft has invoked a cult appeal that speaks to generations of creepy kids, inspired and empowered by its counterculture characters and flair for fashion. Sue chats wicked Wiccans, the influence on popular culture, and an enduring legacy brought about by relatability within a fantastical situation. We’ll also be checking out the latest single, One Chapter Closing for Another one to Begin, from legendary progressive metal wizards Akercocke. So hail to the Guardians of the Watchtower, take into yourself the power and relax...it’s only magic... Blessed be.     

Our 10th episode and our first "WildCard" where everyone picks their own topic. We we're joined by close friend and musician Max Shoop (Horde of The Eclipse, The Beyond, Storm of Damnation). Iain and Max give us a glimpse into the complex worlds of perrenial podcast favorites Akercocke, and The Axis of Peridition respectively, Don shares some of his personal favorites recomended by a mysterious CD Warehouse employee, and Zach explores the skeezy world of Cobra Records, and the underappreciated masterpieces they created. Plus the horrible effects of mold on the human esophegus, two anti-natalists laugh about pro-creation and Bob Dylan sings metal.   *Note. There are a few misspoken words and abbreviated segments in the Cobra segmant. I highly recomend reading our notes for clarification and additional info, plus full transcripts of my talks w/ Gord and Conrad.

This week, Eden is gone! I swear this isn't some Fast and Furious 8 situation where Eden and I hate each other and don't appear on screen at the same time (see Vin Diesel and The Rock), but just real life getting in the way. But Tidal is still alive, so we must go on. This week we have Simon Handmaker, fellow Heavy Blog editor and meme master. We discuss some news/new music, like The Faceless facing troubles, Spotify needing to change their business model, and new music from: Myrkur, Contrarian, Wolves in the Throne Room, Celeste, Humanity's Last Breath, Cytotoxin, Rings of Saturn, Ne Obliviscaris, Tera Melos, Converge, Akercocke and August Burns Red. Then we do some cool people stuff talking about The Room and The Disaster Artist, some movies by A24 productions including The Lobster, then Pyre and PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS. Enjoy!

Ever felt like your sibling was transforming into a monster? Sam Emerson does, and when his brother Michael starts hanging out with the local in-crowd, he quickly realises, that it's first come, first staked. It's been 30 years since Joel Schumacher's cult classic was released, and the film is still as relevant and revered today, an immortal classic that helped to redefine vampires for a new generation, thanks to iconic characters to imminently quotable dialogue. Sue looks at the legacy of the film, from it's influence on style, to it's commercial appeal and undeniable longevity.  We'll also be checking out the new single from extreme metal legends Akercocke. So grab a garlic t-shirt, splash on some Windex, and head on down to the murder capital of the world, where you'll never grow old, and you'll never die. It's fun to be a vampire.

We talk about new music, including Myrkur, The Arusha Accord, Akercocke, Leprous, Igorrr, Fractal Universe, ZETA, The Contortionist, The Faceless, and Queens of the Stone Age. Also, Gene Simmons of KISS trying to trademark the metal horns. We have an extended discussion on bands appropriating spiritualism and eastern philosophy and then do the first part of a deep segment on Devin Townsend. Specifically Strapping Young Lad and Devin Townsend Band. This one's a wild ride, so enjoy!
