Top METAL Albums of the Year 2025! | Best Deathcore, Black Metal, Metalcore & Underground PicksWelcome back to **Episode 129 of The Metal Maniacs Podcast with your hosts Jay Ingersoll and Modd**, bringing you the **heaviest breakdown of the year – our *official Albums of the Year List!

In dieser spannenden und wichtigen Folge begrüßen Flo und Kai die Band Saviourself, um über modernen Metalcore, kreative Prozesse und Themen zu sprechen, die in der Szene oft noch zu wenig Platz bekommen. Zwischen harten Riffs und klaren Statements geht es um Musik als Sprachrohr, Haltung im Metal und die Frage, wie offen eine Szene wirklich ist.Save Yourself beschreiben ihren Sound als zeitgemäßen Metalcore mit vielfältigen Einflüssen – und genau so vielfältig sind auch die Themen, die sie in ihren Texten aufgreifen. Feminismus, Genderfragen und gesellschaftliche Verantwortung stehen dabei bewusst im Fokus und sorgen nicht nur für Diskussionen, sondern auch für frischen Wind.Neben inhaltlicher Tiefe sprechen die Hosts mit der Band über ihren neuen Deal bei Corrupted Blood Records, die Herausforderungen rund um Bandnamen, kreative Phasen im Songwriting und Inspirationen aus Gaming, Film und persönlichen Erfahrungen. Eine Folge, die zeigt: Metal darf unbequem sein – und sollte es manchmal auch.

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.

Metalcore Band Breathe In Release New Single  "Misfortune's Hand" + Official Music Video.The rising force in metalcore, Breathe In, released their electrifying new single “Misfortune's Hand”. Bridging the ferocity of American metalcore with the cinematic precision of Japanese metal and visual kei, the track delivers an immersive and sonically devastating experience that defines the band's signature Visual Metalcore sound.      With “Misfortune's Hand,” Breathe In channels the intensity of Bad Omens and Orbit Culture, the visual grandeur of Black Veil Brides, and the artistic flair of Japanese legends The GazettE and Hyde. The result is a track that's both crushing and theatrical.      Brian Kang shares, "For me, 'Misfortune's Hand' represents the continuation and confidence of our new/current lineup. Our last single was a reintroduction of our band (we went through a lineup change prior). This one is about carrying the baton forward. We wanted something instrumentally and lyrically intense to showcase our accelerating momentum."      The music video, available on YouTube, was directed by the band's drummer, Paul Illge Jr. His in-house production crew, who have collectively worked across the film industry with various professional credits, serve as the creative backbone behind all of Breathe In's visual projects. The video was shot in Brooklyn, NY, bringing the band's artistic vision to life.       “Misfortune's Hand” is now available on all major streaming platforms.   Hailing from the heart of the tri-state, Breathe In brings together raw talents from New Jersey, Brooklyn, and Philly. Fusing the aggressive edge of American metal with the precision and artistry of Japanese metal, their sound is as cinematic as it is intense, built to leave a mark both visually and sonically. Formed by five seasoned musicians who have weathered the ever-shifting tides of the music industry, Breathe In is united by a shared mission to bring an intense, sonic experience like no other. The band is made up of vocalist Shola Aurora, guitarists Brian Kang & Topeng, bassist Rob Gnarly, and drummer Paul Illge Jr.  Subscribe to The Adventures of Pipeman for PERKS, BONUS Content & FREE GIVEWAYS!   Take some zany and serious journeys with The Pipeman aka Dean K.

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.

On this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam and Tera Lisicky sit down with Jake from In Hearts Wake for a raw, insightful look at his unusual journey from the creative beaches of Byron Bay to the international heavy music scene. Jake opens up about growing up surrounded by artists—his mom, a tarot card reader; his “bonus dad,” a hardcore punk frontman—and how the wild energy of side-stage moments at legendary shows set him on the path to forming In Hearts Wake, his first and only band. From recording DIY demos for school art projects to traveling across the globe to capture their signature sound, Jake shares how In Hearts Wake found early recognition, carved out a unique identity around powerful themes like environmentalism, and pushed boundaries with cryptic album concepts inspired by tarot cards. He explains how their newest release completes a 12-year journey, finishing what they started as teenagers by turning the remaining tarot archetypes into thunderous new songs. Jake also talks candidly about the band's evolution, the heartbreak and hope of longtime bassist Kyle's upcoming departure, and what it really takes to keep a creative partnership together for over a decade.
