Podcasts about Extreme metal

In this episode, we definately talk about Coroner's 1988 album Punishment for Decadence, and definately don't spend most of the episode talking about anything but due to a total lack of attention span. 

From addiction to Czech prison: Lamb of God vocalist Randy Blythe shares his journey of sobriety and accountability in extreme metal's unforgiving world.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1150What We Discuss with Randy Blythe:In hindsight, Randy Blythe is grateful his metal band, Lamb of God, grew a gradual following over 30 years instead of catching instant fame and fortune. He credits this slow growth from humble beginnings for his survival, maintaining perspective and gratitude for the band's success.After battling alcoholism for 22 years, Randy made a life-saving choice in 2010 that he's maintained ever since: sobriety over ennui.In 2012, Randy was arrested in the Czech Republic on manslaughter charges after a fan died following a concert two years prior. Despite advice not to return, he chose to face trial to give the family answers and was eventually acquitted.Randy emphasizes the importance of regularly examining and questioning your own beliefs — despite how scary the answers you find might be.If you feel powerless and you're looking for a small way to have a big, positive impact on the world, Randy suggests joining the National Bone Marrow Registry (formerly Be The Match). It's free, only requires a simple cheek swab, and you could potentially save someone's life. Contributions are especially needed from underrepresented minority donors.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Présentée par Jeff  Nouvelle émission metal extrême qui revient sur cinq sorties parmi les (très) nombreuses sorties de la fin avril 2025, de COFFIN FEEDER à KARDASHEV en passant par HATE FOREST.

Présentée par Jeff - Partie Glorior Belli à 0:33:19   Dans un contexte de guerre en Europe, GLORIOR BELLI est de retour. Sept ans après The Apostates, l'album qui affirmait le plus clairement l'étiquette de Southern Black Metal, le projet de Billy Bayou ouvre une nouvelle page. Le huitième disque porte sobrement le nom du groupe, avec un virage musical qui résonne comme un retour aux sources. Glorior Belli propose un black metal sombre et froid, qui illustre aussi le contexte actuel. Dédiée aux forces ukrainiennes, la guerre est au centre de ce nouvel opus. Nous parlons cauchemar rouge sur fond de metal extrême avec le musicien dans l'entretien du lundi soir. Pour la première demi-heure d'émission, l'ambiance n'est pas plus à la fête. Mais la musique est bonne, avec le black metal vampirique du projet allemand SUMERIAN TOMBS. Nous faisons également une petite escale en Pologne avec un disque qui sera, à coup sûr, remarqué par les amateurs de metal underground. DORMANT ORDEAL, groupe de death metal, sort Tooth and Nail, un album qui s'inscrit dans la lignée d'un Ulcerate. Enfin, le maître à penser d'HARAKIRI FOR THE SKY expose à nouveau ses névroses avec son side-projet KARG. Marodeur marque le huitième album pour le projet de post-black autrichien.

Présentée par Jeff  Nouvelle salve de sorties avec cinq nouveautés pour une procession des plus versatile... PUTRID OFFAL explore la vie de Dominique-Jean Larrey, CYTOTOXIN revient sur les racines de la catastrophe nucléaire de Tchernobyl, IN THE WOODS... nous conte les légendes de l'Otra, KORSAKOV nous parle des pertes de mémoires et BLOOD ABSCISSION nous amène dans les abysses...  Concours Rituel Noir à 00:43:00

It has truly been a while since we have listened to an album that has provoked this type of reaction from the boys, what exactly that reaction is, you'll have to listen to the album for.  This week is Matando Gueros by LA's own Brujeria

Présentée par Jeff - Partie FRACTAL UNIVERSE à 00:33:34   La machine Fractal Universe a été lancée il y a dix ans maintenant aux alentours de Nancy. Le groupe de death metal progressif et technique a rapidement forgé son nom sur la scène. Au point que les deux précédents disques, Rhizomes Of Insanity et The Impassable Horizon, sont sortis dans la prestigieuse écurie Metal Blade Records. Avec ce quatrième album, Fractal Universe veut poursuivre son univers conceptuel. Les riffs de death tech solides se mêlent aux réflexions philosophiques et au chatoyant saxophone. Fractal Universe n'a pas fini de porter le savoir-faire hexagonal hors de nos frontières. Le guitariste Yohan Dully sera dans notre entretien du lundi soir pour évoquer tout cela avec nous ! Pour lancer cette grande partie d'émission réservée à Fractal Universe, pourquoi ne pas commencer dans la même veine ? Le groupe américain ALLEGAEON présente son septième disque The Ossuary Lens, qui voit le retour d'Ezra Haynes au chant. Ce disque a deux faces, technico-brutal et plus progressif, confire que le groupe est toujours debout. La première demi-heure est aussi l'occasion de revenir sur le nouvel album d'une légende du death metal britannique, avec BENEDICTION. Ravage of Empires est sorti vendredi dernier, prouvant l'efficacité du groupe. Nous ferons aussi une petite escapade vers le black metal, avec un groupe grenoblois cette fois-ci. ALDAARON nous emmène par-delà les cimes avec son nouveau méfait.

Présentée par Jeff Podcast et émission metal extrême avec une heure consacrée aux sorties du 28 mars 2025. Une émission qui est donc riche en post-black avec DEAFHEAVEN et le disque posthume de HEIR, les expérimentations entre bouddhisme et black metal de CULT OF FIRE, le premier méfait des français de PATHS TO DELIVERANCE et la déflagration grecque de LUCIFER'S CHILD.

### English below ###In dieser Episode von Leise War Gestern spricht Flo W. mit Sean, Gitarrist und Songwriter von Worga, über einen ganz besonderen Aspekt der Musik: den perfekten Refrain. Direkt vom Hellfire over Ilsenburg Festival tauchen sie in die Welt des Extreme Metal ein und wählen ihre Favoriten – von Mgła bis Hypocrisy. Was macht einen Refrain unvergesslich? Welche Songs lösen Euphorie aus? Hört rein und findet es heraus!

Présentée par Jeff - Partie HEXECUTOR à 00:30:00 Formé en 2011, le quatuor rennais Hexecutor a démarré avec une inspiration speed/thrash metal old-school. La formation a par la suite évoluée dans d'autres directions, aussi bien plus heavy que vers une tendance extrême et un son brut. Très rapidement, Hexecutor s'est fait une solide réputation sur scène. Sa force est de parler aussi bien aux nostalgiques du thrash old school qu'aux amateurs de metal plus contemporain. Le troisième album continue d'explorer les sombres légendes et des figures de l'histoire celtique bretonne. Nous en discutons avec le chanteur guitariste Jey Deflagratör et le batteur Putrid Vön Rötten dans l'entretien du lundi soir ! Lors de la première demi-heure, nous évoquons trois sorties de la semaine passée. Focus d'abord sur les new-yorkais d'IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT. La formation de metal extrême avant-gardiste va marquer les esprits avec son nouveau méfait très urbain Goldstar. Ensuite, nous quitterons la ville pour la forêt avec le nouveau disque Shadow Play du groupe de black metal atmosphérique ukrainien DRUDKH. Enfin, nous découvrirons les atmosphères méditerranéennes et éléments folkloriques nordiques infusés dans le metal extrême d'ARAN ANGMAR.

Dani Filth dive into Cradle of Filth's brand-new album, reflects on his band's legacy and shares a hilarious story about Ed Sheeran's first connection to the band.

The boys continue a decidedly metallic non-metal March with the titanically gnarly new album from Tennessee deathcore legends Whitechapel, the fantastic Hymns In Dissonance!

Interview by Angela CroudaceCradle of Filth's frontman, Dani Filth, sat down with HEAVY to discuss the band's 14th studio album, The Screaming of the Valkyries, their evolution over the years, and the provocative themes they've explored in their music.Dani shared that the new album brings a modern sound while still nodding to Cradle of Filth's roots, with a blend of fresh ideas and older influences. "It's a modern sound record, one step forward, but it also has a passing nod back to previous incarnations," he explained. This new direction is, in part, thanks to new members Donnie and Zoe, and the band's increased playtime during the pandemic, which helped refine their sound.Although the album doesn't have a central concept, Dani describes it as a celebration of escapism, rituals, and vampirism. He elaborated on the inspiration behind the album's title, revealing that it stems from the final track, When Misery Was a Stranger. The title The Screaming of the Valkyries was inspired by the impending doom of the Doomsday Clock, likening the sound of Valkyries' screams during Ragnarok to the existential realisation of impending disaster.On the subject of religion, Dani was candid about his views, stating that while he respects others' beliefs, he finds the notion of religion's validity in the modern age absurd. “I think time has just worn out the message,” he said, pointing to the age of science and the contradictions he sees within religious teachings. However, he emphasised that it's the belief itself, not the dogma, that holds value.Over the years, the band's dynamic has evolved significantly, with Dani noting that the band and crew have become a tight-knit family. He shared a personal moment, reflecting on a recent wedding within the band, symbolising the strong bond they now share. The influence of the band's longevity and experience shows through in the new album, which recalls elements of their older works.When asked about his favourite track from the new album, Dani pointed to Ex Sanguine Draculae, a song that takes him back to the band's earlier work in the ‘90s. “It just reminds me of the era that we did the Dusk and Her Embrace record,” he said. He also revealed the band's collaboration with renowned producer Scott Atkins, praising his approach to refining the band's sound and ensuring the production was sharp and true to their vision.Dani also shared that, if given the chance, he'd love to collaborate with Lana Del Rey, citing her gothic sensibilities and haunting voice as a perfect fit for Cradle of Filth's style. Fans of both artists may just get lucky one day.As for the fan experience, Dani recalled a bizarre moment in Australia when a fan gave the band a prosthetic leg as a gift, only for it to later be tossed onto the stage during a performance. "I don't know whether it was a gift or whether we should have given it back," he mused, "We did give it back though" he confirmed.With The Screaming of the Valkyries out this week, Cradle of Filth continues to push boundaries while honoring their legacy in the metal world. Fans can expect a thrilling mix of old and new, with Dani and his bandmates at the forefront, creating music that's as unpredictable and darkly captivating as ever.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Présentée par Jeff - Partie AKIAVEL à partir de 0:30:33 Akiavel dessine une esthétique remarquable depuis sa création en 2018. Le quatrième album InVictus est l'occasion pour le groupe d'explorer davantage ce qu'il a su créer. Son death metal puissant va toujours chercher plus loin en mélodie et en efficacité. InVictus propose des riffs mémorables qui sont taillés pour faire sensation sur scène. Naturellement, la charismatique chanteuse Auré franchit aussi un cap sur ce nouvel opus. InVictus va manier des émotions contradictoires et complexes. Puisant à la fois dans la douleur profonde, il va aussi être tiré par un brin de lumière avec l'espoir et le courage. Avec ce nouvel album, Akiavel semble donc invincible… Auré est avec nous pour parler de tout cela dans l'entretien du lundi soir. Pour la première partie d'émission, trois disques seront à l'honneur. Autre projet avec une frontwoman, DAWN OF OUROBOROS présente son troisième disque. Un album surprenant où le black et death metal progressif rencontrent des atmosphères bien plus éthérées. Nous parlons aussi blackened sludge à la sauce hardcore avec THIS GIFT IS A CURSE. L'album Heir peaufine l'esthétique singulière de ce projet suédois. Autre groupe suédois, ISTAPP revient après six ans d'absence pour présenter Sól Tér Sortna. Le groupe de black metal mélodique est en grande forme pour ce quatrième opus.  

Présentée par Jeff Le mois de février 2025 a été riche d'excellentes sorties black metal ! Les bons albums sont tellement nombreux que ce nouvel épisode se prive des réminiscences pour se consacrer aux nouveautés. Nous parlons ainsi metal extrême percutant avec SCOUR et SEPULCHRAL CURSE, mais aussi black metal atmosphérique avec GRIMA, OFNUS ou encore GRÀB, riffs épiques et endiablés avec HAVUKRUUNU et scène française avec DECLINE OF THE I et ARKAIST !

In episode 207 of Heavy Metal Philosophy, Jon Barbas inquires into the world of Pantera and Phil Anselmo with his unexpected venture into black metal with his band Scour.

Présentée par Jeff - Partie CRUSH THE RATS - Convulsound Studio à 00:30:00   Gérer le son live pour des Benighted, Celeste ou Destinity, a dû donner l'envie à Thibault Bernard de rebrancher la guitare. L'ingénieur son, à qui l'on doit des productions d'albums de Kamizol-K ou Deathawaits, pour ne citer qu'eux, présente désormais son propre projet. CRUSH THE RATS est un condensé de violence qui puise principalement dans le grindcore, mais aussi le brutal death, la noise et le black metal. Ce premier EP Don't montre la couleur, en seulement seize minutes et très peu de secondes de respiration. Nous profitons de ce premier méfait pour discuter avec le musicien et l'ingé son sur l'ensemble de ses activités ! En première partie d'émission, nous évoquerons le deuxième album de CROSS BRINGER, formation avec des membres de PREDATORY VOID, REKA et HOARI. Nous allons aussi du côté de la Belgique avec RÄUM qui présente Emperor of the Sun paru chez Les Acteurs De L'Ombre Productions. Les britanniques d'ABDUCTION viennent aussi de sortir leur cinquième méfait, Existentialismus. Ils sont également au programme de notre macabre cérémonie…

Présentée par Jeff - Partie USQUAM à 0:32:39 USQUAM est une formation qui sévit depuis 2018. Ses influences variées tirent vers le black, death, doom et post-metal. Usquam peut rappeler, par ses influences, les belles heures de formations légendaires comme Behemoth, Naglar, Dark Funeral ou encore Anorexia Nervosa. En français, latin et anglais, les textes s'appuient sur le concept de tradition primordiale, plaçant ainsi les différentes croyances dans un noyau commun, dont la forme varie bien plus que le fond. Le premier disque d'Usquam, Ex Nihilo, aborde également le concept de l'Ego, remettant l'Homme à sa place « d'infime et éphémère particule »… Nous parlons de tout ça avec le groupe en direct dans l'entretien du lundi soir ! Au cours de la première partie, nous revenons sur A Sonication, le nouvel album du groupe de death metal progressif et technique allemand OBSCURA. Nous allons aussi du côté de la Suède, pour nous ouvrir au viking metal épique d'EREB ALTOR qui présente nouvel opus Hälsingemörker. Enfin, pour une touche plus atmosphérique, la formation canadienne UNREQVITED viendra apporter un peu de douceur et de lumière à notre programmation.

Interview by Kris PetersForming in Melbourne, Florida, BODYSNATCHER deal in all things dark, furious and sonically threatening extreme music. Combining crushing breakdowns with eerie ambience, scathing riffs and grisly grooves, the band have become synonymous with “heavy,” invoking violence in every city they happen to visit, spawning mosh pits that leave nothing but craters in their wake. Proudly and loudly putting the "core" back in deathcore, BODYSNATCHER have graced stages supporting the likes of Chelsea Grin and Slaughter To Prevail, with the band also in command of multiple albums and EPs, including 2017's Death of Me, 2020's This Heavy Void, 2022's Bleed-Abide and Vile Conduct released in September 2024.And now, for the first time, Bodysnatcher are making their way to Australia, supporting good mates Lorna Shore on a run of shows that has already sold out. Which would be catastrophic for Bodysnatcher fans except for the fact the band has just announced three select headlining sideshows which will undoubtedly follow suit and sell out in quick time.HEAVY sat down for a chat with drummer Christopher Whiten to chat more."Very excited to see the sun," he laughed when we bring up the tour. "We've been in Europe for the last three weeks and it's been cloudy. Except for Spain. Spain was nice and sunny."Being their first time to Australia, we ask Chris if the band have done their homework on what to expect."I heard the crowds are awesome," he smiled. "I haven't heard any negative things, I guess, so we're stoked." HEAVY brings up the fact that the one thing we do know about Bodysnatcher is the propensity for action and insanity in their mosh pit, and ask if it's true."Yeah," he said quickly and decisively. "We definitely instigate it. We like that high energy. We like the aggressiveness in fans. We definitely ask for it quite a bit. The shows are just very, very intense with high energy. Constant telling people to get on stage and get off stage. At some of the Lorna dates, I'm sure there's gonna be barricaded venues so no-ones getting on stage (laughs)."In the full interview, Chris talks more about his expectations of Australia and what we should expect from them, their history with Lorna Shore, the excitement of already selling out every show, their headline shows and what different to expect, the early days of the band and where they fit in, recent album Vile Conduct and how it was received, future plans and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Death Metal December 2024 continues with a look at the second and final album from Germany's Necrophagist, 2004's Epitaph. 

Send us a textValletta's fusion of blackened arena rock and melancholic grunge n' roll creates a sound that defies easy classification. Their upcoming debut album Summer promises to dismantle metal conventions with its raw, electrifying energy, pushing the genre into new, uncharted territories.Comprised of seasoned musicians, Valletta's lineup includes drummer Justin Valletta and bassist/backing vocalist Donald Boyd (both from Mo'ynoq), guitarist/lead vocalist Keenan Carroll (Lord Almighty, ex-Barishi), and guitarist/backing vocalist Will Goodyear (Hopesfall, Prayer for Cleansing, ex-Between The Buried and Me). With their diverse musical backgrounds, each member brings something unique to the table, culminating in a sound that's fresh, innovative, and unrelentingly powerful.The band's debut full-length Summer promises to take their musicianship to the next level. Featuring 12 tracks, the album is built on the foundation of heavy riffs, soaring melodies, and a dynamic exploration of contrasts—elements that make Valletta's sound so distinctive.In discussing the creative process behind Summer, the band offered insight into the album's thematic exploration of contrasts:“The new album has been a real exploration in tearing down walls that we had previously built up over the years. Each of us comes from different musical backgrounds, and there's been a strong sense of letting go and allowing the music to unfold, regardless of how uncomfortable it may be. That's been the beauty of this journey we've started together, and it's been a great ride so far!During the writing process, a constant theme that emerged was the idea of duality. From heavier, grimier riffs to beautiful, stoic melodies. From slower, muddy depths to faster, anthemic leads. From frozen wastelands to summer nights, we've been on a journey to explore our limitations musically and emotionally. Spin that shit up!”Summer will be available on October 4 via Forcefield Records in CD, vinyl, and digital formats, delivering a sonic experience that's sure to leave a lasting impact.www.BetterHelp.com/TheBarnhttp://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn http://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarnThis episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and brought to you as always by The Barn Media Group.
