Uitgekeken op het aanbod van metalfestivals in de directe omgeving stapt Osmium - de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands - in het vliegtuig naar Roemenië voor Rockstadt Extreme Fest. Het zes dagen durende evenement in de bergen van Transsylvanië herbergt ruim honderd bands en ontvangt voor haar tiende editie internationale blikvangers als Behemoth, Amon Amarth en Kreator. Persoonlijke favorieten als The Dillinger Escape Plan, Converge, Saxon en Baroness passeren ook nog eens de revue. Ondanks haar boetiekformaat blijkt Rockstadt Extreme Fest een totale uitputtingsslag en eenmaal weer thuisgekomen praten babbelaars Niels en Pim je bij over deze onvergetelijke reis. Wat begint als een schijnbaar eindeloze klaagzang over logistiek, publiek en overige randzaken, krijgt uiteindelijk een heilzame conclusie. Rockstadt Extreme Fest is - zodra de cultuurschok eenmaal verwerkt is - een ruwe diamant in een onderbediende metalregio van Europa. Niels en Pim keren daarom terug met een herboren dankbaarheid voor het brede aanbod thuis en vinden het stiekem toch wel heel erg leuk om een vakantie met obscure bestemming te verrijken met dit opkomende muziekfestival. De diepgravende onderzoeksjournalistiek van deze aflevering wordt meteen beloond door het Nederlands Instituut voor Beeld & Geluid, dat de Osmium podcast als belangrijk onderdeel van het Nederlandse culturele erfgoed beschouwt en het derhalve gaat archiveren. Wie durft nu nog te zeggen dat Osmium niets meer is dan een verzameling onzin-stories op Instagram? Met muziek van The Dillinger Escape Plan. Onderwerpen: The Dillinger Escape Plan - 43% Burnt (00:00) Introductie over dingen in je foodhole stoppen en Frankenstein-gedrochten der liefde (00:16) De litheid van de Osmium Instagram-stories (02:14) Osmium voor eeuwig gepreserveerd in het archief van Beeld & Geluid (04:03) Wat is Rockstadt Extreme Fest?

De winterdip. Naarmate de dagen korter worden, daalt het energiepeil en de motivatie om productief te zijn. Niets is minder waar voor Pim en Niels. De presentatoren van de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands zijn namelijk geboren in de duisternis, en dus ervaren zij juist een zomerdip. In voorgaande jaren werden er absurd lange pauzes in het opnameschema genomen wanneer de zon zijn gezicht liet zien, en ook dit jaar leken de creatieve sappen verdampt te zijn door de hoge temperaturen. Maar als het volk dorstig is, dan schenkt het podcastduo. En dus tappen de heren hun meest verkoelende aflevering tot dusver: bijna 90 minuten aan auditieve ijsklonten. Met daarin een verslag van het meest duale weekend dat het duo tot nu toe beleefde: de ene helft rees af naar Outbreak Fest in Manchester, de andere naar de Formule 1 Grand Prix van Oostenrijk. Wat kunnen het hardcorewalhalla, en de plek waar een heel ander soort metalen geweld plaatsvindt van elkaar leren, en wat vooral niet? Daarnaast deden de heren een poging om een concert van Wormrot te bezoeken in een Utrechtse bouwput. En, omdat het journalistieke bloed toch kruipt waar het niet gaan kan, recenseren de heren op het middelpunt van het jaar dat wat er in muzikale zin geweest is, en wat er nog komen gaat. Met beeldmateriaal van Nat Wood en muziek van Have Heart en Judas Priest. Onderwerpen: Have Heart - Bostons (00:00) Introductie over toilettenbürstenbenutzungsanweisung en zomeraflevering (00:18) Buurtbarbecues en het concert van Wormrot in dB's dat niet doorging (03:46) Verslag van Outbreak Fest, het Britse hardcorewalhalla (17:19) Verslag van Oostenrijkse Grand Prix, gelijkenissen met metalfestivals (31:30) Verslag van Oostenrijkse Grand Prix, verschillen met metalfestivals (44:12) Verslag van Oostenrijkse Grand Prix, excessen van de camping (49:46) Verslag van Oostenrijkse Grand Prix, wat overgenomen moet worden door metalfestivals (59:16) Het jaar 2024 doormidden zagen (01:06:58) Mid-year review: terugblik van Niels (01:09:31) Mid-year review: terugblik van Pim (01:12:50) Mid-year preview: vooruitblik van Niels (01:16:18) Mid-year preview: vooruitblik van Pim (01:21:07) Mid-year preview: geanticipeerde concerten (01:24:34) Shout-outs (01:29:30) Links: Osmium #43: Damnation Festival in Manchester, een viering van aftandsheid TPD TV op Outbreak Fest 2024 Nat Wood (Wonder Girl) Instagram

It was a pleasure to welcome Jim Hodge (Vocalist) of sludge, grind and hardcore band Mastiff. I witnessed Jim and his band Mastiff put on a face melting performance at Damnation Festival in 2022. Mastiff have had the music press across the UK bestowing praise on them for the 2021 release, 'Leave Me The Ashes Of The Earth'. It's a crushing mixture of raging doom/hardcore/sludge that builds upon all their previous releases since they formed in 2013. I happened to met Jim after the gig and ended up having a great chat with him. When he said he had visited Cork before, the invitation was immediately handed out to come on the show to talk about his band, his life and that infamous visit to Cork. Hope you enjoy the episode and hit 'SUBSCRIBE' to the Metal Cell YouTube channel, if you haven't already!

Osmium, de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands, gaat internationaal. Onlangs vond Damnation Festival in Manchester plaats, dat met een affiche pronkte dat op zijn minst watertandend appetijtelijk genoemd mocht worden. Het pièce de résistance daarvan? Converge dat zijn meest iconische album Jane Doe integraal speelde. Het mag geen geheim zijn dat dit één van de redenen is dat deze podcast ooit is ontstaan, en dus was de keuze voor presentatoren Pim en Niels snel gemaakt: zwarte band shirts werden ingepakt, wekkers werden op ongoddelijke tijdstippen gezet en eeuwig lange wachttijden wegens te vroege aankomst werden getrotseerd. Wat volgt is een verslag van deze drie dagen durende trip in dagboek vorm, waarbij er stil wordt gestaan bij zaken als erbarmelijke optredens van headliners, vermakelijke en evenzo trieste afterparties, batsende stelletjes in aangrenzende hotelkamers, Indiase Uber chauffeurs met esoterische muzieksmaak, geweigerde toegang tot ondergrondse metal clubs en goedkope chicken shops met paraderende drag queens voor de deur. Met muziek van, hoe kan het ook anders, Converge. Onderwerpen: Converge - Concubine (00:00) Welkomstwoord over de aftandsheid van Engeland en het einde van Osmium (00:10) Advertentie voor de nu al legendarische Instatorries van Damnation Festival (03:29) Hang-outs met luisteraars van Osmium tijdens Soulcrusher (04:44) Een chronologische verhandeling in hoofdstukken van de reis naar Manchester (06:32) Britse cultuur in vogelvlucht: Wetherspoons (07:12) Bestolen door hotel met puinhooplocatie en dunne muren (12:35) Eerste indruk van de BEC Arena tijdens A Night Of Salvation (15:06) Hoogsensitieve Niels kiest een ontbijtje uit (21:58) Openen met Irist, Bruit's lichtshow, Oceano, Insanity Alert, So Hideous, gefrituurde bloemkool tijdens Full Of Hell en We Lost The Sea (24:32) Van hoogtepunten (Pig Destroyer met Prowler In The Yard) naar dieptepunten (Godflesh met Streetcleaner) (32:15) Meningen die niet door de beugel kunnen: Despised Icon goed, At The Gates slecht (40:03) Jane Doe is religie (44:11) Nachtelijke escapades met drag queens, geweigerde club-entree en gefrituurde kip (53:42) Terugreizen met darter Vincent "Dutch Destroyer" van der Voort (01:05:30) Eindoordeel over Damnation Festival (01:07:41) Concerttip van Niels: A.A.

Damnation festival should need no introduction to anyone interested in heavy music festivals in the UK. From it's humble beginnings it has blossomed (through a lot of hard work, it must be said) to become Europe's largest indoor metal festival catering to 6000 music fans. The engagement to the festival goers from it's creator Gavin McInally is legendary. And we were beyond happy to sit down with Gavin to talk all things Damnation festival.
With Damnation Festival just around the corner it's time for The Razor's Edge annual chat with festival director Gavin McInally. Over an hour long catch up we look back at the final Damnation in Leeds, what the future holds at the BEC Arena in Manchester. We raise the important question of whether there will be pasties at this years event and go on to discuss the wider festival scene in the UK that has witnessed multiple events cancel or postpone this year. ===================== Follow The Razor's Edge online: Web: https://therazorsedge.rocks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/therazorsedgerocks Twitter: https://twitter.com/_therazorsedge_ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therazorsedgerocks
The Metal Cell Forums. Join myself, Danielle, Evan and Joe as we talk about bands and discuss topics related to our favourite music....METAL! In this episode we are joined by one half of the organisers of Damnation Festival, Gavin McInally. Damnation Festival is a one-day heavy metal music festival that was annually at the University of Leeds in England, and is organised by Gavin and Paul Farrington. The festival was originally held at Jilly's Rockworld in Manchester in 2005 and this November, it is moving back to the BEC Arena Manchester, which can hold over 4,500 people. We talk to Gavin about this years line-up, the ups and downs of organising such an impressive festival over the years and we get an insight into how bands make the line-up of Damnation. We reviewed five quality releases from Eternal Helcaraxe, Foraoisí gan Iniúchadh, Koma, Cyanide Gems & Survivalist. Please 'SUBSCRIBE' to The Metal Cell YouTube channel if you enjoyed the show!

Losing Ministry at the start of the week and ending it with Jane Doe, Prowler In The Yard and Streetcleaner, was not the plan.But a few frantic calls, bags full of cash and some accommodating bands later and Damnation ended up with the greatest bill in the festival's history.Gav joins co-conspirator Paul Farrington to discuss the week that was, alongside the excitement for A Night of Salvation featuring Celeste, We Lost The Sea, Ithaca, Pupil Slicer and Mastiff.

Gavin McInally chats to Matt from MMH Radio about relocating Damnation Festival to Manchester for 2022, the impressive ticket sales and where the festival is headed.
On this episode of the Adventures of Pipeman, Pipeman speaks to Gavin from Damnation Festival live at Bloodstock Festival in Derbyshire, UK. The festival has been around since 2005 in Manchester and this year they're making a big move to the arena, meaning if they sell 6,000 tickets, they will be the biggest indoor music festival in Europe, similar to Psycho Las Vegas. What makes Damnation Festival unique is that it is one of the biggest one day festivals out there. The demographic is for people who have a mortgage and three kids and who need to go back to work on Monday morning. You get a lot of energy and a great lineup for 12 hours, before you can return to your normal life. The guys share stories of people going to festivals and crashing, not being able to pace themselves for a three day festival.You can find the tickets and all the information for the festival over at damnationfestival.co.uk.

How did some of the UK's best emerging sludge, stoner and doom bands get signed, and in an age of Spotify, YouTube and TikTok, why is that still important?What impact does landing slots on festivals like Damnation, Desertfest and Bloodstock have on a band's rise to be Mastiff (!), beyond the back patting and Facebook likes?And where the hell is all the vinyl we've been ordering over the past year?APF Records boss Andrew Field is the man with all the answers... just don't mention Tuskar!#damnationvs #apfrecordsFor further info on Damnation Vs, or Damnation Festival visit:damnationversus.buzzsprout.comdamnationfestival.co.ukfacebook.com/damnationfestivalinstagram.com/damnationfestivaltwitter.com/damnationfest

The Razor's Edge - Interview! https://therazorsedge.rocks Leaders of the party-slam global movement, Party Cannon released their latest opus 'Volumes of Vomit' last week following a storming 2021 that saw them blow the roof off Damnation Festival. We catch up with bassist Chris Ryan to talk the new album, US tours and more...
Ever wondered how difficult it would be for a slam death band from Dunfermline to tour America and Asia without showing up at a venue in Idaho where the promoter forgot you were playing, having your headline act held hostage in Indonesia or almost drowning in a tunnel in the Philippines?Well wonder no more, because Party Cannon's Chris Ryan and his band of merry slammers have done it all for you. Jarring accents, camera phone calamities and a guitarist with a black foot... absolutely everything you'd expect from a party slam podcast.#damnationvs #partycannonFor further info on Damnation Vs, or Damnation Festival visit:damnationversus.buzzsprout.comdamnationfestival.co.ukfacebook.com/damnationfestivalinstagram.com/damnationfestivaltwitter.com/damnationfest
