Roestig. Dat is wellicht de beste term om het muzikale jaar te omschrijven van Osmium-babbelaars Pim en Niels. Hoewel het een enorm goed muziekjaar was, en de heren fysiek fitter zijn dan ooit, lijken de rimpels in het luistergedrag van het duo alsmaar dieper en dieper te worden. Volgens traditie behandelen de heren aan het einde van het jaar hun persoonlijke jaarlijstjes en daarover zijn beide heren niet bijster positief. Waar zijn de verrassingen? Waar is de experimentatiedrang? Waar is de wil om de luistersleur te doorbreken? Als zelfs een twaalf maanden durende, honderd albums tellende luisterchallenge en een sloot aftandse festivals in allerlei uithoeken van het land én daarbuiten geen uitkomst kunnen bieden om de jaarlijsten in florissante staat te brengen, is er dan nog hoop voor de presentatoren van de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands? Gelukkig is er altijd nog de stem van de rede. En die is in handen van jullie. Juist, jij, beste luisteraar en lezer. De stembussen voor de Zware Metalen publieksjaarlijst zijn inmiddels geopend, en de presentatoren vertrouwen op jullie input om hun muzikale jaar te redden. Dus spreek de heren toe middels jullie eigen jaarlijstjes! Maar dat is niet het enige huiswerk dat jullie meekrijgen. Een jaarafsluiting betekent natuurlijk ook een prijsuitreiking. De vijfde editie van de fameuze en omstreden Osmium Awards staat op de rol, en ook daarvoor rekent het duo op jullie input. Volg de podcast op de socials en stuur de meest (of minst) urgente categorieën in waarin een award uitgereikt moet worden. Hoe debieler hoe beter!

Tijdens de avond waarop oorspronkelijk de blackmetalavond van de Zware Metalen jubileumconcertreeks in P60 plaats zou vinden, nemen een chagrijnige Pim en een dekking zoekende Niels uit pure ellende maar een nieuwe aflevering van Osmium - de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands - op. Thuis opgesloten gaan ze op een nostalgische tour. De uitslag van de Zware Metalen Millenniumlijst is namelijk bekend en dus zijn er een hoop nuances uit te diepen. Tevens zit Pim tien jaar in de redactie van Zware Metalen en viert Osmium haar eerste verjaring. Redenen tot feesten dus, maar we houden het noodzakelijkerwijs bij twee debatterende nerds. Onderwerpen: Amon Amarth - Twilight Of The Thunder God (00:00) Introductie over het trimmen van fades (00:10) Van hoge hoogten naar diepe diepten: de versobering van de Zware Metalen jubileumconcerten in P60 (02:25) Het IQ van het virus met onderscheid tussen high-brow en low-brow cultuur (04:26) De segway der segways en de vakantie van Niels naar Zweden (07:44) Nog een segway van hoge kwaliteit: de millenniumlijst van Zware Metalen (12:21) The Satanist op #1, het magnum opus van Behemoth (14:47) Met Amon Amarth op #2 de laatste twee hoofdacts van FortaRock aan de top (17:16) Gojira overspoelt de top 20 met drie albums (20:18) Comebackplaat van Iron Maiden op #8 (22:01) Amenra met Mass VI als hoogst genoteerde band van eigen bodem (24:25) Waarom staan er zoveel platen uit 2001 aan de top? (26:22) SpreadsheetPim komt terug met zijn spreadsheetporno (29:01) Tegenvallers aan de onderkant: de droogte van 2009 tot en met 2012 (33:25) Cross-correlaties van de notering in de millenniumlijst en de jaarlijst destijds (38:35) Opvallendheden, zoals geen Death Magnetic in de top 50 (40:28) Waarom de millenniumlijst minder belangrijk voelde dan de gewone jaarlijsten (45:30) Pim's betrokkenheid bij Zware Metalen door de afgelopen 10 jaar heen (47:29) Terugkijken op de eerste twintig afleveringen van Osmium, en waar de podcast heen kan gaan in de toekomst (53:00) Luistertip van Niels: Greg Puciato - Child Soldier: Creator Of God, ex-frontman van The Dillinger Escape Plan doet lekker z'n eigen ding (01:00:00) Luistertip van Pim: HEALTH - DISCO4 :: PART I, het summum van industrieel eclecticisme met hyperpop, transgenderelektro, trapmetal en grindcore (01:04:35) Te gast tijdens de volgende aflevering: Inge Janse van de radioshow Dood & Verderf (01:01:00) Shout-outs (01:11:19)
We konden niet slapen van enthousiasme, dus namen we een nieuwe aflevering van Osmium op in de vroege ochtend na het eerste jubileumconcert van Zware Metalen. Met het slaapzand in de ogen volgt een lyrisch verslag van de wijze waarop Graceless, Disquiet en Mouflon een uitverkochte avond in P60 - met recordomzet aan de bar - verzorgden. En terwijl het ijzer heet is, klappen we er meteen op met de line-up voor het tweede jubileumconcert: Terzij de Horde, Doodswens en Ggu:ll. Maar het leven van een succesvolle concertboeker gaat niet alleen over rozen, dus in bredere zin bespreken we wat er achter de schermen zoal plaatsvindt. We ronden af met een discussie over het plotsklapse instorten van Holy Roar Records. Met muziek van Graceless en foto van Rob van Dalen. Onderwerpen: Graceless - Warpath (00:00) Introductie en geneuzel (00:14) Vakantieperikelen (03:07) Onderwerpen van de aflevering (07:51) Jubileumconcerten van Zware Metalen (08:30) Sidetrack 1: Mord'A'Stigmata steelt onze banen (12:10) Sidetrack 2: LGBTQ+ kleurcodes (12:37) ZM deathmetalavond: lofzang over de fans, de bands en de aanpak van P60 (13:13) Zuurpruimerij en schuldbetuiging over het boekingsproces (22:34) Line-up ZM blackmetalavond en data toekomstige jubileumconcerten (32:23) Luisteren naar Osmium in 2023 (36:15) Pim’s luistertip: Glorious - Unashamed, punky hardcore met vele gezichten (37:41) Shockerend nieuws uit het kamp van Holy Roar Records (40:16) Shitstorm discussie: contracten, nasleep, geloof in slachtoffers (46:51) Niels’ luistertip: The Ocean - Phanerozoic II: Mesozoic | Cenozoic, een geschiedenislesje verpakt in consistente, progressieve post-metal (59:49) Shout-outs (01:08:19)

Steve and Remfry are joined by Employed to Serve mic-abuser and Holy Roar Records impresario Justine Jones this week to review new albums by Five Finger Death Punch, Nova Twins, Sightless Pit, Toundra and Intronaut. Steve waxes lyrical about one of the best new bands he's seen live in a long long time and there's discussion around a topic raised last week of musicians who had better careers solo than in bands See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Car Bomb is, in many ways, an anomaly in extreme metal. They've done things on their own terms for nearly twenty years now and with each new album they continue to push not only their own boundaries but the boundaries of extreme metal. The recently released Mordial is yet another shining example of pushing forward and even toppling their fantastic Meta from 2016. Progressive, mathy, grind, bombastic, are all tags that fit the band's sound but still barely touch the totality of their capabilities and they showcase all of this and so much more on this new album. On the heels of Mordial's release, guitarist and co-founder Greg Kubacki took some time to chat with Josh about the album's development and how important being DIY has been for them over the years. They also spend some time on Metallica and Gojira, a recent trip to Germany's Euroblast, a venture with Holy Roar Records, and a whole mess of other topics. This is their conversation -- jump in and take listen! Mordial is available now on the band's Bandcamp page and on Holy Roar Records. To keep up with all things Car Bomb, visit their official website. 9C LINKS: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram

Katy Weaver is a professional photographer who created a career for herself out of sheer drive and passion for photography. Katy is also one of Craig’s eldest friends from college at Oregon State - the two met at the college newspaper and wound up working together off and on for many years. So they’re pretty familiar and use this episode to catch up a bit while exploring how Katy went from taking photos of Craig’s metal band in college to taking them of hundreds of people and couples from literally all over the world.Katy is a prolific wedding photographer and provides a great deal of backstory and advice for doing great wedding photography, as well as what it looks like for her to give up the lens as she is currently planning her own wedding. The conversation also veers into some emotional spaces as Katy recently lost one of her best friends - but the memories, much like the photos, are what keep her going even through tragedy. This is one of the most heartfelt and loving conversations featured on this podcast and we hope that truly comes through.And if you want to check out more from Katy and to see her work, go to KatyWeaver.com or find her on Instagram!MUSIC NOTE:- This week you got to hear tunes from the ridiculous new Holy Fawn LP, “Death Spells,” which was released last year through Holy Roar Records and Deathwish Inc in the states.

Two in a row! And not nearly as late as usual! Like an out of control freight train in a late 90s action film, the Album of the Month series continues its perilous journey, this time picking Ithaca and their debut full-length The Language of Injury -- our Album of the Month selection for February 2019! It's a full crew as Chris, Hera, Dan, Jon, Vincent and New Guy Charles dive into the brutal and beautiful hardcore of UK-based Ithaca's debut full length, out February 1st through Holt Roar Records. We celebrate Hera's birthday, put Charles through our ritualistic hazing, and talk a lot about the expectations of a hardcore album and how over the course of 30 minutes Ithaca subverts them. Technical difficulties are surmounted, and we dive into what else ticked our collective fancies in February. All that plus a special end guest (not really - its just Josh)! So jump on in and enjoy the hijinks. Better yet, head on over to Bandcamp and give Ithaca a listen, too! 9C LINKS: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram

Lucy then gets into 'Return of the Obra Dinn' basically telling Ben and Aadil that they would love it. Talk turns to Assassin's Creed Odyssey and the revelation that none of us have played it which leads into Lucy's initial impressions and general chat around Red Dead Redemption 2. Lucy has another week off the beers as she went to an Amundsen tap take over the night before recording so recounts some of the beers she enjoyed. Ben and Aadil do drink whilst recording. Ben starts with a 'Ransack the Universe' IPA from Canadian based Collective Arts Brewing whilst Aadil drinks, from our Bristol friends Good Chemistry with Holy Roar Records, 'Roar Power' Pale Ale. Aadil sticks with the collabs for his second beer having the Fierce and left Handed Giant 'Nervous Laughter' Sour IPA. Ben ends with the 'Marshmallow Stout' from New Bristol Brewery.

TRACKLIST: 1. Bix Sixes - The Devil Makes Work For Idle Hands To Do “I’m devoted to being hopeless but you barely noticed/You hands are like knives and your eyes are like locusts” twitches Big Sixes’ singer over a frenetic tropical beat, that bursts forth into an addictive chorus. It brings to mind everyone from Vampire Weekend to the early work of the Libertines whilst retaining a introspective edge of authenticity. This FREE DOWNLOAD ‘The Devi Makes Work For Idle Tongues’(below) is a cracking introduction to this mysterious Bedfordshire three piece. Read more:http://s.tt/12S7W 2. The Love Language - Pedals Following recent shows supporting Arcade Fire in the US, The Love The Language just played their debut European shows. The one taster they’ve allowed to seap out to the public is the free download ‘Pedals’ below, a sweepingly tune that bares swooning choral hallmarks are brave and tender. Swelling through delicately arranged orchestration and collapsing into gloriously melodic cresendos not too dissimilar to the the early work of Arcade Fire or The Decemberists! Read more: http://s.tt/12QZT 3. And And And - Buy You And And And makes driving, gritty, energetic indie rock songs infused with a classic DIY punk ethos and a penchant for experimental instrumentation. These recordings embody the emotional mess that is an And And And live show. http://soundcloud.com/fanaticpro/and-and-and-buy-you 4. Kindest Lines - Destructive Paths To Live Happily Initially it appears obvious Louisiana’s Kindest Lines delicious reverb heavy lo-fi sound is inhabited with the ghosts of early Joy Division and The Cure. But somewhere on their debut long player Covered in Dust they settle on a feminine draped sound that’s somewhat more individual. Somehow reassembling the dark post punk era and flecks it with hints at disco sound of the next decade. Read More: http://s.tt/12RRP 5. Brontide - Matador Sprawlingly magnificent post rock instrumentalists from Brighton Brontide released their debut album ‘Sans Souci’ on the 30th of May on Holy Roar Records.

An Axe - Love, My Evil One minute and twenty six seconds. I can barely make a cup of tea in that time. That in that space of time Bristolian dramatists An Axehave produced a mini melodrama is testament to the quality of their work. “Love, My Evil” – and its instrumental counterpart “Let Law Be Upheld” – is a stellar single. Read More: http://s.tt/12UxS 8. Little Arrow - Aeroplane West Wales outfit Little Arrow are that rare thing, a genuinely heartwarming group informed by an ancient folk tradition but not consumed by it. An act seemingly completely oblivious to the prevailing trends, making music for the sake of expression and in an attempt to affect the listener.Their fine album ‘Music, Masks & Poems’released earlier this year on the quality Cardiff inprint Bubblewrap is the product of a genuinely communal effort(made up of friends and family members, including Margret Hughes his mother who provides a comforting female tone in the ether throughout). Read More: http://s.tt/130w5 9. Plant Plants - Hands That Sleep New duo, Plant Plants release their new self titled debut EP on the 20th of June.

Prolific beyond his years, Milwaukee native Andy Petr recently signed with Brooklyn-based Mixpak records and released his debut album Rapper Turned Singer EP on May 10th. Andy’s profuse output of intricate chops doesn’t stop there. He is also delivering a spate of free EPs which APD004 being the first. The trilogy of EPs will feature original material as well as heavy reworkings of some of his favorite rap songs. Sample one of his innovative tracks below. Read More: http://s.tt/12UQ9 14. Oax - Love And Crashing After four years of heavy touring schedules with Bishop Allen and The Rosebuds, it was time to leave New York and head back South to his home of Houston, TX. Not the hippest city in the country, but that was sort of the point. What started as a open-ended hiatus from music and a venture into graduate school in architecture at Rice University, it didn’t take too long before Giorgio Angelini started writing music again. Oh, and there was a break-up, of course. What record worth it’s weight in wax hasn’t been seeded by a good ol’ fashioned heart ripping? Distance is, indeed, a killer.Oax is the result. The name coming from the seemingly endless canopy of live oak trees that covers Houston like a carpet. Not native to Houston, the trees were planted by early settlers as a way to provide shelter from the punishing Texas sun. And lucky enough, they managed to thrive like weeds in the swampy bayou soup of Houston soil. Read More: http://s.tt/12XSw 15. Laura Stevenson & The Cans - Master Of Art As some of the finest musicians Brooklyn has to offer, it’s hard to believe Laura Stevenson & The Canshaven’t achieved the epic fame their music demands. They can jump from subtle folk, to bluegrass, to rock, to punk and back again within the bat of an eyelid. Stevenson can manipulate her voice to sound kitsch and rabid at any one time; she can put out stars and light them back up again. I’d be unsurprised if she spends most of her time walking on her hands. One minute you’re listening to a leftfield take on acoustic music; the next you’re basked in a fervour that borders shouty, punchy hysteria. And it always works; there are never any flaws. Read More: http://s.tt/12RGS 16. Jonnie Common - Hand- Hand Red Deer Club present their first album on vinyl “Master Of None’ from Glasgwegian Jonnie Common it gets a release on the 1st of August. Jonnie previously worked under the monniker Tiny Steps releasing records through the Fence Collective. A summerous collection of wondrously understated pop oddities, coming in at just over thirty minutes, at moments it understated charm reminds one of the quieter more modest moments of the National’s work.At others his twinkling instrumentals and quick fire, playful vocal ticks are wonderfully redolant of The Beta Band. Stream the entire album below. Read More: http://s.tt/12RGc 17. Inca Gold - Dark Moves After a well received debut EP, Inca Gold I in February, London four piece Inca Gold released the second in a triptych for 2011, Inca Gold II on 8th June on Color and Vision Records. Ethereal vocals? Check? Keyboard bleeps? Swirling Psychedelia? Yep Cinematic atmosphere!? Yes sirrreee…. The equation for Inca Gold‘s wide screen soundscapes could appear in a book about ‘how to surf the zeitgeist in 2011′s all too cluttered music scene.’ But wait their formula doesn’t contain pretension of MGMT, the blandness of the xx, or the sheer annoyance of The Naked or the Famous! Inca’s modest lilting, dreamy refrains ghost their way into your brain like half remembered dreams of the past. Read More: http://s.tt/12Qv4 18. Grant K Fennell -Three O'Clock Starting out on the live circuit aged just 13, Grant K. Fennell has meticulously climbed his way up the musical ladder, fusing with psych, ska, garage and folk troupes along his way. This isn’t because Fennell doesn’t want to shackle himself down to the restrictions of a singular genre – it is simply because he can’t. With tastes and influences as extensive as his (Flaming Lips, Nick Drake, Mastodon, Frank Zappa, Animal Collective, Van Morrison, Coheed and Cambria, Kate Bush, Queens of the Stone Age), Grant’s music is a sedimentary of sounds, with layers of prog, folk rock, hardcore, desert rock, country, even blaxploitation, forming the musical force that he is.
