Interview by Ali WilliamsIf you call yourself a true-blue supporter of the Australian heavy music landscape, then the name Segression shouldn't just ring a bell—it should trigger absolute, unadulterated audio warfare in your eardrums. For three decades, these Wollongong legends have stood as one of the country's most relentless and enduring metal forces, a band forged in fire and built on pure, unfiltered groove and aggression. They've shared massive stages with the likes of Slipknot, Pantera, and Ozzy Osbourne, cementing their reputation as a premier live assault unit that never compromises. After scoring a stellar No. 2 spot on the iTunes metal charts with their recently dropped retrospective, The Best of Segression, the boys proved that their focused brand of sonic artillery is sharper and heavier than ever before.Now, the cosmic alignments of the heavy underground have summoned these titans back from the void for something truly monumental. This Saturday, August 22, the legendary Mansfield Tavern in Brisbane is set to transform into a sacred ground of absolute chaos for the third annual Necrosonic Festival. The line-up is an absolute monster, featuring international tech-death visionaries Rivers of Nihil alongside homegrown elite like Psycroptic, Gravemind, and a resurrected The Berzerker. But right at the absolute heart of this 12-hour, 30-band auditory bloodbath is an exclusive, highly anticipated 30-year milestone reunion set from Segression. The altar has spoken, and the message is clear: if you aren't in the pit for this rare, fleeting return to the stage, you're missing out on a certified piece of Australian heavy music history.Ahead of what promises to be an unhinged, sweat-soaked day of brutal riffage and flying bodies, HEAVY caught up with the band to see how the camp is holding up before descending upon Brisbane. We threw down the ultimate festival challenge, dug into their blueprint for surviving a massive marathon day of metal, and got the lowdown on which classic tracks are going to absolutely level the main room. Grab a cold one, lace up your most reliable pit shoes, and find out exactly what happens when one of Australia's hardest-hitting bands prepares to reclaim the throne.NECROSONIC tix: tickets.oztix.com.au/outlet/event/571c76f6-8314-43fd-a6ee-cc7c67a199cfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
Brisbane's Mansfield Tavern is locking its doors and bracing for total structural failure. The third annual Necrosonic Festival is descending on Saturday, August 22, 2026, delivering 12-plus hours of unrelenting extremity across three stages. While international powerhouses Rivers of Nihil and homegrown technical death metal legends Psycroptic are set to co-headline, the middle tier of this massive bill holds some of the most devastating weapons in the Australian heavy music arsenal. If you want a band that will completely tear the skin from your face with clinical, heavy precision, look no further than Melbourne deathcore juggernauts Gravemind.These guys have spent years mastering a sound that functions like a well-oiled killing machine. They don't just write breakdowns; they engineer sonic earthquakes that blend punishing, technical riffs with vast, cinematic atmosphere. Following the massive success of their critically acclaimed sophomore album Introsphere, released via Greyscale Records, Gravemind have proven they are not content with sitting safely inside the boundaries of traditional deathcore. They weaponise melody, injecting dark progressive layers and experimental dynamics that keep listeners totally off-balance before delivering a swift, blunt-force trauma to the jaw.HEAVY sat down with vocalist Bailey to find out more about what to expect at Necrosonic.Tickets to Necrosonic and more information https://necrosonicfestival.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
Interview by Kris PetersPerth based melodic death metal outfit VANTA returned with their debut full length album Perpetual Selection on March 13, a cinematic andconcept driven record that explores humanity's darker instincts through the lens of cosmic horror, mythology and dystopian sci-fi.Perpetual Selection is a sonic and visual journey inspired by Indonesian dark folklore and survival horror games to the brutal sci-fi landscapes of Dune and Warhammer 40K, transforming real world anxieties into symbolic narratives of monsters, collapse and rebirth. At its core, the album honours melodeath roots by fusing the aggression and heaviness of modern american death metal with the folkiness and melodic sway of early euro death metal.The band literally ‘breaks down' trauma, inner collapse and humanity's obsession with forces it barely understands in songs like Stillwater and Sacred Light. VANTA's creativity and experimentation in different extreme sub-genres can be heard throughout this album and is a bold statement that the pack are not afraid to push the boundaries and even make some of you...uncomfortable. As well as their sound, their art, lyrics and their symbolic music videos such as Kuyang, Empty Shells and Alchemy mirror the reality that is currently unfolding before us.HEAVY spoke with drummer Ferdi to find out more, asking him to dive deeper into the musical side of the album."We want to explore the darker side of humanity and just where we're heading in general," he began. "Like you see all the things unfolding before our eyes and just around us. Compared to our Gravemind era, we sort of like touched on that more traditional Euro mellodeath sound. Like the Gothenburg riffs, the kind of early Children Of Bodum sound, and a mix with Dahlia nuance.But with this album - because we wanted to explore more into the whole narrative about collapse and rebirth and just where the society is heading in general, we wanted something more extreme, more aggressive. And the three of us all love black metal very much. We love the early Dimmu Borgir gear, the Belphegor sort of sound, and the early Behemoth riffs. But all in all, the core sound is still MelloDeath and just blending it in more with modern influences, I would say."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
