The BreakdownMost bands try to look cool on stage; Release The Captive just proves that behind-the-scenes chaos is where the real magic happens—and how they still crush it despite juggling life and moving into a new place.Imagine a bunch of Texas musicians navigating tech nightmares, Craigslist hunts, and still managing to deliver a raw, authentic metal experience that keeps fans moshing and the scene alive. Ryan Rayle hosts this hilarious and honest conversation with the band that's been tearing up Austin for six years with new ,music on the menu.You'll discover: how to make tech issues disappear faster than Ryan's wife's mirror, the surprising power of local shows for testing new material and why being “Craigslist certified” might just be the new badge of honor in the underground scene. We also break down the band's unique blend of old-school influences with a fresh, nu metal revival—plus, their plans to dominate Texas stages and eventually, the world.This episode is for musicians tired of overproduced nonsense, for fans who want to hear what real guys sound like when the mics are on, and for anyone who loves a good story about resilience, friendship, and loud guitars. If you're longing for a peek behind the curtain of a truly genuine band, this one's for you.Episode InfoBand IG:  @ / releasethecaptiveband  Band Website: https://linktr.ee/releasethecaptiveATXMP Website: https://atxmp.transistor.fm/Subscribe to ATX Metal Podcast on YouTube:  / @atxmetalpodcast  Sponsors / AffiliatesCome and Take It Productions: https://www.comeandtakeitproductions.comCome and Take It Live: https://www.comeandtakeitlive.com/No Control Radio: https://www.klbjfm.com/show/no-control/

"Apparently he left the house after I went to bed so I couldn't stop him and bring him back inside."On the afternoon of 16 October 2018, Elizabeth Herbert called the Connecticut State Police and reported her husband, 44-year-old Oli, missing. Officers responded to the property on Hydeville Pond in Stafford Springs, where they searched the grounds. Eventually, they found the body of Elizabeth's husband at the edge of the pond, laying face down in just a few inches of water.In the weeks and months to come, a bizarre story would begin to play out in the press. You see, Oli was the lead guitarist in a very successful metal band (All That Remains) and his death happened under extremely suspicious circumstances. It turns out that he had amended his will just days before his death, and had been reportedly self-medicating his undiagnosed manic depression at the time he'd died...If you have any information about this story that you'd like to share, please reach through the following methods:Connecticut State Police, Troop C: (860) 685-8230Learn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meCheck out the podcast store at unresolved.dashery.comIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved-a-true-crime-mystery-podcast--3266604/support.

Get ready to snap your necks, Australia, because New Zealand black-thrash titans Bulletbelt are crossing the ditch this June to tear you all a new one.The Wellington metal veterans are locked and loaded for the highly anticipated resurrection of Dead of Winter Festival. Taking place on Saturday, June 27, 2026, at its brand-new stomping ground the Mansfield Tavern, this iconic alternative counter-culture gathering is officially back after a multi-year hiatus. While Aussie heavyweights like DZ Deathrays and Mammal are ready to hold down the home front, Bulletbelt represents the absolute pinnacle of relentless, sonic savagery coming from across the Tasman.If you have ever witnessed Bulletbelt live, you know they do not just play music; they deliver a sonic assault that leaves your ears ringing and your feet bruised. Their signature blend of old-school thrash velocity and cold, uncompromising black metal atmospheric filth creates a hellish wall of sound. It is the kind of measured aggression that instantly gets your head snapping. For years, these guys have carved out a reputation as one of the hardest-working, most road-hardened extreme metal forces in the Southern Hemisphere.Dead of Winter has always been a sanctuary for the outsiders, the riff-lords, and the beautiful weirdos of the heavy music community. Moving the madness to the legendary Mansfield Tavern means 34 acts will split your skull across multiple stages. It offers the perfect, high-intensity indoor environment for Bulletbelt to do what they do best: decimate crowds. Expect sweat-soaked leather, full-throttle blast beats, and a wave of pure, unadulterated energy that hits with the subtle force of a flying brick.HEAVY caught up with drummer Steve Francis to find out more. With Dead Of Winter returning after a number of years, we ask Steve just how important festivals that nurture homegrown talent are to the continued growth of Australian and New Zealand music."They're huge," he replied instantly. "And look at Australia. Look at how many amazing heavy bands there are at the moment, and a little bit of a parallel to back here in Wellington. I think the local scene at the moment here in Wellington and the bigger New Zealand is probably better than it's ever been. There's so many bands that are getting overseas and getting signed to international labels and coming over to play Brisbane with such a really cool, diverse lineup as well.We came two years ago and played Necrosonic Festival, and that was catered a little bit more to the heavier side of the rock genre. But this one is really exciting because we're going to be presenting ourselves in front of a bunch of people who aren't just into heavy music, they're into all sorts of rock-oriented music. So, yeah, really excited."In the full interview, Steve reported that Bulletbelt has been off the road since a November 2024 15th‑anniversary show while recording a new album, which is finished and produced by U.S. producer Damien Reynard to achieve a “world‑class” sound. The record emphasizes more melody, higher tempos (including songs near 200 BPM) and power‑metal influences, and is planned for release around October; release timing is partly delayed by the postponed film Deathgasm 2, for which Bulletbelt wrote the theme.Steve characterized the band's festival approach as high‑energy, crowd‑engaging “party band” sets and said festivals are crucial for reaching broader rock audiences beyond heavy‑music niches. He confirmed the band will perform two new songs during the Australian shows and named local bands he's anticipating at Dead of Winter and more.Dead Of Winter will be held at the Mansfield Tavern in Brisbane on June 27, featuring Mammal, DZ Deathrays, Jay and Lindsay, Beanflipper, Toe to Toe, Slim Krusty and many more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

The BreakdownMost band stories sound like Hollywood scripts — but this one might just beat them all. Andy Alderson from San Antonio's Foreward spills a wild ride from band chaos, political degrees, to signing with Seek and Strike, all while reminiscing about high school hairdos and the glory days of MySpace. Think your band struggles are epic? Wait until you hear how ego, ego trips, and a little bit of ego management slowed this band down—and then fired them back up.You'll discover:How a band formed in 2016 turned hiatus into a comeback with three hit singles, landing a deal with Seek and Strike.The surprising link between politics, heavy metal, and partying your way through a music career.The real truth about the grind of social media, from the horror show of MySpace trains to today's never-ending content treadmill.How a label with roots in Sumerian and New Century Media is helping Foreward hit the next level—and why major labels are both a blessing and a curse.The daily battles of balancing music, business, and ticking boxes like “ear protection” at shows, all with a wink and a nod.This episode is perfect for fans curious about how a local band navigates the tech hustle, the heartbreaks, the hilarious mishaps, and chasing a dream even when the road is paved with debt and questionable hair choices. If you've ever wondered what it takes to keep the metal alive and thriving in the digital age, Andy's story proves: hustle, humor, and a bit of chaos are the true secret weapons.Episode InfoBand IG:   / @forewordband  Band Website: https://www.seekandstrike.com/ATXMP Website: https://atxmp.transistor.fm/Subscribe to ATX Metal Podcast on YouTube:    / @atxmetalpodcast  Sponsors / AffiliatesCome and Take It Productions: https://www.comeandtakeitproductions.comCome and Take It Live: https://www.comeandtakeitlive.com/No Control Radio: https://www.klbjfm.com/show/no-control/

In Episode 154 of the Metal Maniacs Podcast, host Jay Ingersoll sits down with Michigan metal veterans Withhold The Blood to break down over 16 years of grinding through the underground scene. From their early inception around 2010 to their latest 2026 single Nation of Fallacy, this episode dives deep into evolution, persistence, and crushing riffs.We talk about the current lineup featuring Jesse (vocals), Eli (drums), and Brandon (guitar), and how the band has stayed alive through lineup changes, limited online presence, and years between releases. Despite the chaos, the passion for heavy music never left.We revisit their early work including the 2014 EP Detached From Reality, featuring long-form songwriting, massive riffs, and vocal highs reminiscent of Randy Blythe. Tracks like “The Chosen” and “Eye For Misery” showcase their early blend of groove, melody, and raw aggression.Then we dig into 2018's Aberration, where the band leveled up—introducing heavier tones, tighter production, double bass intensity, and stronger deathcore influences. Songs like “Impulse to Kill,” “Broken Dreams,” and “Empty Confessions” highlight their growth in songwriting, rhythm, and technicality.Their newest release, “Nation of Fallacy” (2026), pushes even further—leaning harder into deathcore with relentless vocals, sharp melodic experimentation, and standout guitar work. This track feels like a natural evolution of Aberration while carving a heavier, more refined identity.We also cover:The band's origin and what kept them going for over a decadeLineup changes including past drummers like Levi Smith, Gary Swaggerty, and Mike MillerTheir writing process, riff development, and solo decisionsProduction approach, tone, gear, and tuning choicesLive shows, touring history (including 2019 runs), and recent gigs with VestigialPractice routines and collaboration dynamicsLife outside music, gaming, and influences they're listening to nowWhat's next for Withhold The BloodThis is a must-listen for fans of metalcore, deathcore, groove metal, and underground heavy music culture.

"I would argue that Sempiternal is their re-debut album. It pivoted to something that's a little bit more poppy for the mainstream general audience... it very much was a rebranding of them in a way." This week, Brian and Lizzie dissect Bring Me The Horizon's pivotal 2013 album, Sempiternal. They discuss the addition of Jordan Fish, Oli Sykes' shift to clean vocals, and how the band laid the blueprint for modern metalcore.   A decade after its release, Bring Me The Horizon's Sempiternal remains a monumental record in emo history and modern metalcore. Brian and Lizzie sit down to review the album that transformed BMTH from a raw deathcore act into global rock superstars. They analyze the massive impact of Jordan Fish joining the band, bringing cinematic synths and EDM influences that completely reshaped their sonic landscape. The hosts break down Oli Sykes' evolution into clean, Linkin Park-inspired vocals and review standout tracks like 'Can You Feel My Heart', 'Shadow Moses', and 'Sleepwalking'. From the pop punk level of catchy hooks embedded in their heavy breakdowns to the nuanced electronic soundscapes that paved the way for the current 'baddiecore' movement, this episode covers it all.

Imagine walking into a garage and being told “Hey, you're the vocalist now” — without asking. Or the time their van was attacked by skinwalkers on a Texas highway. If you think “crazy band stories” are just a cliché, think again.

We break down their wildest road trip stories, from a fog so thick it felt like a horror movie, to a mechanic who fixed their fuel pump with a sparepart — in 40 minutes flat. Jay and Toast spill the tea on what it's like to be the “big fish” in El Paso's scene, their secret to longevity, and how they thrive amidst Texas's massive, sprawling tour circuits.We delve into their latest album “The Curse of Care,” exploring the songwriting process, lyrical depth, and how they stay true to their roots—metalcore, death metal, and everything in between. Plus, get the scoop on their future plans — a Texas takeover, a legendary Texas BBQ recipe, and why “the more you suffer, the more you know.” Whether you're a hardcore fan or just love stories about bands risking it all on the road, this episode is packed with heart, humor, and some seriously good riffs.Ready for stories that are just as heavy as the music? Perfect for fans of wild tour tales, underground scenes, and the honest grit behind the riffs.
