Metalhead Journeys returns with a recap of 2025. What we listened to; the good, the bad, and some upcoming. 

Alles hat ein Ende nur die Wurst hat zwei! Unter diesem Motto lassen Simon und Hanno das Jahr Revue passieren und suhlen sich noch mal so richtig schön in all den Ereignissen, die 2025 zu dem gemacht haben, was es ist bzw. war. Gutn Rutsch!

Interview by Ali WilliamsIf you think the wildest part of touring is the fans, you've clearly never tried to drive a truck through an American winter. HEAVY caught up with Matty Mullins—frontman, ice-road survivor, and Memphis May Fire's resident optimist—while he was holed up in Salt Lake City after some “eventful” /white-knuckle drives that would've had most people praying to whatever rock gods they believe in. Turns out, touring with Memphis May Fire is less “luxury tour bus” and more ‘Frostpunk on wheels'. Memphis May Fire will be returning Down Under with BLESSTHEFALL in April 2026. Matty's racking up more frequent flyer miles than your average travel vlogger, but in his words, “we owed our Australian fans a proper return after too long away". As a regular coming to Australia so often, he might as well apply for citizenship and start calling Vegemite “delicious” with a straight face. Whilst he assured me there will be no pyrotechnic awesomeness or indoor fireworks this time—(insurance companies everywhere just collectively sighed in relief), the band's packing a new setlist, bigger production, and some mates from Blessthefall. The only thing going up in flames will be the crowd's energy and maybe a box of your possessions you left at an unhinged ex's place. Matty laughs off the chaos, proving he's either a genuinely chill dude or just totally numb to tour madness at this point. “I never, ever know what day it is,” he laughs. Touring sounds glamorous, right up until you're living out of a suitcase and arguing with the GPS about which patch of ice to die on next. For Matty, it's been night after night of long, snowy drives and just enough adrenaline to keep things interesting. What keeps Memphis May Fire alive after years of this chaos? Stubbornness, a refusal to quit, and the knowledge that some maniac on the internet will have a hot take on whatever you do anyway. Matty's refreshingly honest about the ups, the downs, and the sheer weirdness that comes with being in a band in 2025. There's no pretending it's all sunshine and sold-out shows—but there's a hell of a lot of laughter along the way. Every touring band has wild stories, but Matty's “unhinged moment” takes the cake (and probably an earlobe). He tells of a band trip to a South African wildlife preserve, one overly friendly baby leopard, and a bass player who learns the hard way what “bite force” means. The aftermath? Paper towels, disinfectant spray, and a new story to explain at airport security. Scar stories: not just for mosh pits. He gives a few hints about what's in the pipeline for Memphis May Fire—new music, surprise setlists. He doesn't spill everything, but has promised that they're bringing something new and exciting the second time around, and those who saw them recently won't be disappointed because it's not going to be just a repeat of their last shows, so watch this space! Memphis May Fire are still out there, still grinding, still finding new ways to laugh at the madness. Get to a show, bring the good vibes, and maybe offer to drive the van if it snows. Tickets for Memphis May Fire's next Australian tour are going fast—for all the details and your backstage pass, head to https://thephoenix.au/memphis-may-fire-2026/, and maybe, just maybe, send Matty a warm pair of socks. Catch you in the pit, or over at the bar.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Here come Metalheads, here come Metalheads, right down Metalheads LaneWe got a bag that's filled with toys for boys and girls againHear those slay bells jingle jangle, oh what a beautiful sightSo jump in bed and cover your head, cause Metalheads come tonight!

Interview by Simon Russell-WhiteThough Australia is familiar territory for the members of Better Lovers - Jordan Buckley (guitarist/ex Every Time I Die) and Will Putney (guitarist/producer/Fit For An Autopsy) - there is an air of honesty and humility about the debut Australian tour for the five piece, also featuring Greg Puciato (vocals/ex Dillinger Escape Plan/Killer be Killed & The Black Queen), Steve Micciche (bass/ex Every Time I Die) and Clayton "Goose" Holyoak (drums/ex Every Time I Die).For Jordan, it's been 6 years since he travelled to this Great Southern Land, and when asked the obvious question about how excited the band is about finally coming out to Australia, his reply was in the form of a question: “Be honest, is it gonna be good?!"Between Jordan, Will, Greg, Steve & Clayton, the discographies, tours and (dead set) legacies these guys possess is something to be in awe of and has earned each member much respect in the industry, especially in the genre, a genre that is tackled by many and has become saturated.To give an answer on how the tour will go, made for an easy reply, one in which I hope offered reassurance of how excited the Better Lovers punters of Australia truly are!To mix things up, joining Better Lovers on the tour is the Gold Coast's own Blind Girls and English nu metallers Split Chain. “It's a cool, mixed bill, always love a good mixed bill,” says Putney as the conversation leans into what to expect from the tour. “Reminds me of being a kid, when I first started going to shows,” he adds, as he reminisces and reels off some absolute classic gig line ups he attended many moons ago.The band's debut album, Highly Irresponsible, came into this world just over a year ago, and more recently as a deluxe edition with some extra absolute slammers of tracks. “So grateful and doesn't get any better,” says Buckley when discussing the reception the album has received worldwide. Be sure to check out those extra tracks, sitting at the end of such an album makes for a huge ending to it!Before you settle in and enjoy this conversation, as a collective, be it organisers, fans, even the sometimes unsung door people, can we please guarantee two things for the band?!Make sure the AC is in working order at all venues.Adelaide fans, make sure the last show of the tour, the best show of the tour. Amongst the insanity that will be Better Lovers' debut Australian tour, kicking off in Brisbane, there will no doubt be appreciation, sweet relief and a love for music that will be palpable for all involved, let's get hot, Australia!Tickets from destroyalllines.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Ja, der Subtext dieses außergewöhnlichen Finales lässt so einiges vermuten. Seid wie immer gewiss: auch in Season 4 passieren Dinge, die plötzlich und unerwartet so einiges über den Haufen werden. Fakt jedoch ist: Die 5 Teams kämpfen im großen Schlussbattle um die GOLDENE POMMESGABEL - und das wird wie immer spannend und unterhaltsam!

As with any musical experience, drumming can be either the most frustrating thing on the planet or one of the most beautiful things on Earth. It is, by very definition, the loudest part of any band, but there is far more to mastering the craft than simply being able to smash things. It takes a special kind of person to be a drummer, but still, it is nigh on impossible to outwardly say what qualities a person needs to master the craft.Which is just one of the reasons that the newly released book from The Babes' drummer Moni Lashes, THE ART OF HARD ROCK DRUMMING - A COMPREHENSIVE TOOLKIT FOR THE MODERN HARD ROCK DRUMMER, is not only a brilliant idea, but also one which may just clear some of the mystery surrounding the person who sits at the rear of the band and makes all the noise.By stripping the craft back before slowly reassembling it with an easy-to-digest handbook, Lashes has poured every ounce of her 30 years of experience into the publication, aiming to provide a complete and rounded insight into both the teachings and the pleasures of drumming. It is a book written through blood, sweat and tears, from the good times through the bad, and, most importantly, from the perspective of someone who has fought in the trenches and loves her art just as much as her passion.Featuring tutorials, play-throughs, video demonstrations and more, The Art Of Hard Rock Drumming provides an invaluable insight into the mechanics of drumming, providing tips and exercises to help everyone from beginners to seasoned veterans to help gain more understanding of what it takes to be the best and stay at the top of your game, all the while enjoying every moment of the journey.To take us deeper into the book and explain the methodology behind the words, HEAVY sat down for an engaging chat with drumming legend and author of the book, Moni Lashes."It's been really positive, and I'm very fortunate to have such support," Lashes enthused when we asked how the early reception has been. "I've had some great testimonials from drummers that I actually look up to myself, so it gives me the boost and the confidence to just keep pushing with this. I basically wrote this book as a drum educator, because when I'm not on tour with a band, I teach drums. And I grew up learning from drum books and picking and choosing things I liked. And for the authors of those books to actually give me testimonials has blown my mind."With a plethora of influences surrounding her on a daily basis, Lashes admits finding subject matter was only as difficult as she allowed it to be."The book is a combination of what I learned, my learnings and style from my teachers as well as what I find is beneficial for my students," she offered. "And a couple of my students have actually gone on to get scholarships at the conservatorium and international music colleges, so I think I've got some success stories from my method of teaching. I really believe that we need to have more kids playing instruments. I don't think we need to be so rigid and make it as boring as maybe history did. You've got to give and take and make it fun and still get the fundamentals down, which is what I hope my book does."In the full interview, Lashes emphasized the importance of structured practice, innovative teaching methods that are essential when learning to be a drummer. She outlined some of the teaching methods she has applied to the book, including the use of QR codes for video demonstrations and the role of silence over volume in enhancing performances.She highlighted certain sections of the book, running through four essential elements of learning that she has focused on. Moni explained her teaching methods and how they have been shaped through experience, offering tips and advice for beginners through to professionals, detailing how different stages or chapters of the book can be used for maximum effect.The levels of commitment required to master the drums was also discussed, with Lashes giving some valuable insights into different methods and processes which have guided her through her own personal journey. She covered more ground in select chapters, explaining the whys and hows of her teachings, and used her own experiences to relate to different levels of the learning process.Her band, The Babes, was discussed along with upcoming new music from the band, her love of performing and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

...zugegeben, dieses Goodie war nicht wirklich vergessen, sondern für genau solche Anlässe wie den Adventskalender vorgesehen. Beim Talk vor zwei Jahren mit Alea von Saltatio Mortis und Andy von Vanden Plas kam seeeeehr viel Material zusammen. Einen schönen Moment habe ich damals schweren Herzens rausgeschnitten - dafür aber jetzt für euch hinter Türchen Nummer 19 gepackt! Viel Spaß mit einer kleinen Zeitreise in die Jugendtage der beiden Protagonisten

Ob da der kleine Sadist im Metal-Ott erwacht ist? Es ist die einzige logische Erklärung für das, was hinter diesem Türchen auf euch wartet. Der XXL Zusammenschnitt aller Scooter-Songs aus dem entsprechenden Spiel. Ja, das braucht starke Nerven. Aber seid Gewiss, wer es knallhart durchzieht wird (vielleicht) belohnt!

For 35 years, Poland's unholy giants Behemoth have flown the flag for blackened death metal not only in their home country, but in all corners of the world. Along with Vader and Hate, Behemoth have played an important role in establishing the Polish extreme metal underground with an uncompromisingly brutal attitude that burns brighter with each passing year.Fresh from releasing their most recent album – The Shit Ov God - in May this year on Nuclear Blast, Behemoth have set their sights on Australia in February 2026 to perform tracks from their storied discography alongside new material. Straddling the line between the sacred and profane, Behemoth has risen to become extreme metal's most revered and provocative band, steeped in anti-authoritarian fire. Renowned for their elaborate live performances, the band continues to push boundaries with their fearless artistry and vision, and have vowed to bring their menacing glory to Australian fans on the upcoming tour.To celebrate the momentous occasion, HEAVY recently sat down with guitarist/vocalist Nergal to journey through the sordid world of Behemoth. We ask if his excitement levels remain as high despite touring most countries multiple times."Yes," he smiled warmly. "I don't want to sound arrogant here, because the fact is that from the first tour that we did in Australia to the next one, it just grew by a few per cent. But every time it was bigger and bigger crowds. We even did some like big festival appearances, so we played in front of really big crowds there as well. Mostly, it's club tours, but still, I don't want to be like, oh, Behemoth is coming back, everyone is just fucking bowing. No, no, you always have to earn that. You have to work hard. We have a new record called The Shit Ov God, and I don't know how it's going over there in Australia. So it's always a test.It's always a question of how many people would like to go and check it out again if they've seen us before? And I hope they will. And how many of the newcomers are going to show up? So it's always a question mark, you know. I don't want to sound too full of myself, like it's a royal return of Behemoth. No, no. We do work hard; we do care about it, and we would love to have the biggest run yet in Australia."In the full interview, Nergal discussed Behemoth's upcoming tour in Australia in greater detail, highlighting the band's strong connections and positive experiences in the country. Nergal expressed enthusiasm for returning to Australia, noting the growth of their audience and the importance of continually earning their place in the music scene. He shared personal reflections on his career, emphasizing the gradual success of Behemoth over 34 years and the evolution of their live performances into elaborate spectacles.He also mentioned the financial challenges of live show production, drawing inspiration from other bands like Rammstein while remaining committed to enhancing their stage presence. The conversation further explored Nergal's creative process, which he described as organic and akin to piecing together a puzzle. He emphasized the need to capture fleeting ideas through notes to avoid losing creative opportunities and the challenges that come with longevity in the music scene. Nergal also discussed Behemoth's latest album, The Shit Ov God, acknowledging its potential for mixed reactions while highlighting its philosophical significance. He talked about the themes of the album and the title, expressing his thoughts going into an album cycle and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Ja Ok... vielleicht klingt diese Folge auch ein bisschen wie eine verfrühte Neujahrsansprache. Am Ende aber ist es ein ehrliches Statement zu dem was in diesem Jahr war und was daraus resultierend im Jubiläumsjahr 2026 (5. Staffel DER METALKELLER) passieren wird.

Zwei Tickets für ein Hammer King Konzert eurer Wahl bei der anstehenden Tour mit den Burning Witches! Viel Glück allen die mitmachen!

Zu geil! Seit Anfang des Jahres habe ich ja eine kleine aber umso fleißigere Metalkeller-Redaktion (hier ein Herz einfügen)! Ein junge Mann hat im kreativen Überflug spontan das folgende Hörstück gezaubert. Ich hoffe, ihr habt so viel Spaß beim Hören wie ich. Vielen Dank Carsten :-)

Trari-Trara, der Commander ist mit Geschenken da. Viel Glück allen die mitmachen :-)

Mit "With the old breed" haben Warfield DIE Thrash Überraschung des Jahres rausgehauen. Ähnlich überraschend der Überfall im Metalkeller. Aber Spontanbesuch ist immer schön - vor allem gibt es viel zu quatschen - zum Beispiel darüber, weshalb Wiener Schnitzel in Wies nicht immer zu empfehlen ist ;-)

Interview by Ali WilliamsIf you thought progressive metal was all serious faces and minor chords, think again. Mitch from Dyssidia joined HEAVY's own Ali Williams for a wild, winding, and refreshingly unfiltered chat—spanning everything from vinyl snobbery to deadly Frisbees and Adelaide's criminally underrated music scene.Dyssidia just dropped their sophomore album Deeper Wells of Meaning—only five years after their debut, because, you know, global pandemics and musicians' creative “pauses.” Mitch spills on the pain of planning an album launch, only to have COVID crash the party two weeks later. The silver lining? More time to marinate, mature, and, presumably, stare at the ceiling thinking about vinyl colour options. Forget digital downloads; Mitch's passion for vinyl is a religion. The band doesn't just release albums—they curate tactile experiences. The latest artwork, painted by Adam Burke (with an actual brush—no AI here, people), is so gorgeous that Mitch reckons at least 20% of positive feedback is just fans drooling over the cover. Want a double LP with wild colours? Dyssidia's got you. Want a band-branded stubby cooler? Even better—just watch out for Mitch's plans to weaponize plastic frisbees at shows. Rock and roll, but with dental insurance. The band's gearing up for their album launch in Adelaide, with Adriatic, Wings of Thanatos, and Kuiper joining the chaos. Touring across Australia is like prepping for the Olympics—distances are brutal, costs are bonkers, and sometimes even the koalas get confused by daylight savings. Perth fans: you're loved, you're loyal, but unless someone donates a private jet, don't hold your breath for monthly Dyssidia visits.Dyssidia have re-joined forces with Wild Thing Records—mainly because the contracts are so chill they're basically handshakes, and the friendships are the real glue. According to Mitch, it's not about the business as much as it is about the hang. “Most of the time, you're just trying to survive and connect with other bands, so your mini-tour isn't just you in a van talking to yourself.”There's no road map for being a modern prog-metal band. Dyssidia is all about that flexible, DIY, make-it-work spirit—embracing the weirdness of the times, working from home, and enjoying the freedom to create on your own terms. New music is brewing (eventually), Adelaide is still underrated, and at least Ali and Mitch are now Facebook friends. In the words of the great philosopher: Thanks babe.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Interview by Angela CroudaceAfter years of anticipation, Born of Osiris are finally set to return to Australia this coming March and for drummer Cameron Losch, the excitement is doubled. While the band last toured the country six years ago, Cameron himself hasn't performed on Australian soil for roughly a decade due to an injury during their previous run. “I am just so excited. It's been way too long,” he says, reflecting on how much he loved every visit in the past.Some of his clearest memories include being pranked about “drop bears” moments after landing, and wandering through bushland stunned by wild kangaroos an experience far removed from his Midwest home. This time, he's hoping for more of those uniquely Australian moments, plus a chance to reconnect with fans face-to-face, something he's grown to treasure deeply on recent tours.Australia will also be among the first to witness a major milestone: the 15-year anniversary celebration of The Discovery. The band is performing eight tracks from the beloved album, reworked with fresh flair. Cameron promises surprises, intensity, and some of the most challenging drumming of his career.Sharing the bill with the crushing Signs of the Swarm, Born of Osiris' March run is shaping up to be an unmissable blend of nostalgia, evolution, and explosive energy. Australia, get ready, they're coming back stronger than ever.BORN OF OSIRIS and SIGNS OF THE SWARM 2026 Australian Tour DatesWednesday 18th March ADELAIDE, Lion Arts FactoryThursday 19th March MELBOURNE, Max WattsFriday 20th March BRISBANE, Brightside OutdoorsSaturday 21st March SYDNEY, Manning BarTickets From: https://thephoenix.au/born-of-osiris-2026/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Traditiegetrouw staat de laatste aflevering van het jaar bij Osmium - de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands - in het teken van de persoonlijke jaarlijstjes. Ook 2025 vormt daarop geen uitzondering, maar eerst moet een veel urgenter voorval besproken worden. De Noorse blackmetalband Slagmaur kondigde onlangs een nieuw album aan met een promotiestunt die heel de metalwereld in zijn greep hield. De bandleider General Gribbsphiiser zou namelijk met zijn boezemvriend Snorre Ruch (bekend van Thorns) spoorloos verdwenen zijn in de bossen. Zware Metalen werd als enige metalwebsite vooraf ingeseind over dit "ritueel" en raakte verwikkeld in een koortsdroom van verontwaardiging, fake news en zelfoverschatting. Luister mee voor een kijkje achter de schermen! In de jaarlijstjes van Osmium gelukkig geen toneel, al zou je de muzieksmaak van beide babbelaars wél een sociaal experiment kunnen noemen. De één struint vergeefs alle sludge- en post-metalreleases af in de hoop de nieuwe Cult Of Luna te ontdekken, en de ander ziet zichzelf als een eclectische extremist die geen genres volgt maar energie, intensiteit en eigenheid. Mocht je niet willen dat die wansmaak doorsijpelt in de Zware Metalen publieksjaarlijst, dan is dit het moment om in actie te komen. Op maandag 15 december openen namelijk de stembussen van de ZM Jaarlijst 2025! Maar dat is niet het enige huiswerk dat je meekrijgt. Een jaarafsluiting zonder uitreiking van Osmium Awards is niets meer dan het verstrijken van een dag. En dat gebeurt elke dag al. Laat dus van je horen en stuur de meest (of minst) urgente categorieën in waar een prijs aan gekoppeld moet worden. Des te slechter het idee, des te groter de eer!

Sind Alben mit Millionenbudgets ihr Geld wert? Hört man solchen Platten die teils absurden Unsummen die sie verschlungen haben auch an? Und was hat der Hörer eigentlich davon? Wir lassen es uns natürlich auch nicht nehmen darüber zu phantasieren, was wir mit (mehr oder weniger) endlosen Budgets denn bei unseren eigenen Studio Sessions anders machen würden.

In this episode, I sit down with Dan Cinotto, a veteran of the Midwest rock and Nu Metal scene. From his early days in the Omaha-based Downshift to his current work with Narcotic Self, Dan has lived the evolution of heavy music firsthand. He's also the co-host of the podcast We Were Loud Once ‪@WeWereLoudOncePod‬ alongside Jeff Geaghan — where the two dig deep into the Nu Metal movement from the perspective of musicians who were actually part of it. Together, Dan and I talk about that era's energy, its impact on the Midwest scene, and why the genre is seeing a massive resurgence in 2025. Raw, reflective, and full of insight from someone who lived it.

HAIR METAL Podcast EP.28. Part 2: Black Sabbath 'Back To The Beginning' Concert w/ Kaotica Studios Film Director: Johnny K. NOTE: This podcast was recorded 3 days before we learned of the passing of Ozzy Osbourne. Your Hair Metal Podcast hosts and guest are sadden and are mourning the death of Ozzy, our 'Prince of Darkness', who helped lead the way for all metal fans, and the next generation of metal fans to come. RIP Ozzy, thank you for contribution to our Metal fandom. Fandom Podcast Network YouTube Channel Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/@FandomPodcastNetwork Fandom Podcast Network Hair Metal Audio Podcast Link: https://fpnet.podbean.com/category/hair-metal/ The Hair Metal Podcast looks back at the Thrash, Glam & Rock Pop Metal bands, music, events and everything else that heavily influenced the 80's & early 90's Hair Metal era music.  On this special episode of the Hair Metal Podcast we discuss 'Black Sabbath: Back To The Beginning' Benefit Concert. Back to the Beginning was a benefit concert by the English rock band Black Sabbath, with a number of supporting artists. It took place on July 5th, 2025 at Villa Park in Aston, Birmingham, England, very near where the band was formed in 1968. The event concluded with the final live performances of both the band and lead singer Ozzy Osbourne; it also marked the first time since 2005 that the original line-up of the band (Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward) had performed together live. Osbourne, no longer able to walk due to advanced Parkinson's disease, sang while seated on a throne. The widely-lauded concert was streamed worldwide via pay per view with a broadcast delay. It featured an all-star lineup of supporting acts, including two supergroups of musicians serving as the house band. Proceeds from the event totaled £140 million, and will be donated to Acorns Children's Hospice, Birmingham Children's Hospital, and Cure Parkinson's. Black Sabbath is widely regarded as a foundational band for heavy metal, with their influence extending to various subgenres. Their impact is undeniable, shaping the sound and lyrical themes of countless bands across generations, from the 70s through to current day modern acts.  For the full 68 song set and band & artist list, click here: https://www.loudersound.com/bands-artists/black-sabbath-back-to-the-beginning-setlist Thank you for watching and listening to the Hair Metal Podcast on the Fandom Podcast Network!
