This week, another show celebrating the shredded, gravelly, gritty, raspy pipes and throats of rock n' roll. We are focusing on lead singers who crafted truly special tones with their sandpapered delivery. Join us in celebrating these unique pipes that set them apart from the rest. Anyone can scream, but only a few deliver gravel, grit & glory!What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. Our appreciation this week of rough and textured singing extends to all of the genres that we love. Kevin never realized how much this style of vocalizing actually had an impact on him until putting this series together. As always, we hope we turn you onto something new!Songs this week include:1. Plasmatics – “Put Your Love In Me” from Coup De Grace (2002)2. U.D.O. – “Holy” from Metallized (2000)3. The Cruel Intentions – “Bad Addiction” from All Hail Hypocrisy (2026)4. Valient Thorr – “I Hope The Ghosts Of The Dead Haunt Your Soul Forever” from Immortalizer (2008)5. Warrior Soul – “Burning Bridges” from Destroy The War Machine (2008)6. Planes Mistaken For Stars – “Dancing On The Face Of The Panther” from Up In Them Guts (2004)7.

Metal ist tot. Schon wieder. Oder vielleicht war er einfach nie lebendiger.Im dritten Teil unserer Metal-Reihe versuchen wir deshalb gar nicht erst, die vergangenen 25 Jahre brav in Subgenres zu sortieren. Gemeinsam mit Gitarrist und Produzent Axel Ritt sowie Marcus Görner vom Metal Marcus Metal Podcast geraten Markus und Lars stattdessen mitten hinein in die große Identitätskrise des modernen Metal:Was bedeutet eigentlich „authentisch“ – ehrlich zu sein oder lediglich genau so zu klingen, wie andere es bereits kennen?Von Manowars grauenhaftem True-Metal-Pathos über Ghost, Sleep Token und Electric Callboy bis zu Black Metal mit Banjo geht es um die Frage, wer heute noch festlegen darf, was Metal ist. Reicht das richtige Riff? Braucht es eine Szene, eine Kutte oder wenigstens eine glaubwürdige Fellunterhose? Und warum akzeptieren wir Masken, Kunstfiguren und aufwendige Bühnenshows – regen uns aber über Backingtracks auf?Wir sprechen über Wacken als gigantisches Treffen zahlreicher Szenen, über Genrepolizei und Generationenkonflikte, über Retro-Rock zwischen liebevoller Traditionspflege und nahezu perfekter Kopie. Wann ist ein musikalisches Vorbild eine Inspiration – und wann lebt eine Band nur noch als gut gekleideter Parasit auf dem Rücken der Vergangenheit?Axel nimmt uns außerdem mit hinter die Studiotür: in eine Welt aus DAWs, Drum-Samples, Amp-Simulationen und Presets, in der technisch perfekte Produktionen paradoxerweise immer ähnlicher klingen können. Wenn Tausende Gitarristen dasselbe Plugin und dieselbe Signalkette verwenden, wie viel Persönlichkeit bleibt dann noch im Ton? Und wäre ein nicht ganz perfekter, aber unverwechselbarer Sound möglicherweise das modernere Statement?Schließlich landen wir bei künstlicher Intelligenz und einem Gedankenexperiment: Wenn eine Maschine morgen einen vollkommen überzeugenden neuen Neil-Young-Song erschafft – berührt uns dann die Musik oder fühlen wir uns lediglich besonders kunstvoll belogen?Eine Folge über Originale und Kopien, echte Gefühle und kalkulierte Wirkung, schwarze Löcher der Euphorie und die beruhigende Erkenntnis, dass Metal offenbar sogar seine eigenen Todesanzeigen überlebt.Und Lars fällt am Ende ein abschließendes Urteil:Electric Callboy ist kein Metal.

Interview by Ali WilliamsFor over a decade, Swedish melodic power metal outfit Metalite has stood at the absolute cutting edge of heavy music, carving out a distinct identity by fusing futuristic science fiction narratives with high-octane energy. Founded in 2015 by guitarist and main songwriter Edwin Premberg, the band quickly garnered a massive international following with their stellar debut, Heroes in Time. They further cemented their reputation as modern electronic metal pioneers across subsequent records like Biomechanicals and A Virtual World. By successfully wedding cinematic synthesizers, heavy guitar riffs, and soaring hooks, they built a highly distinct sonic universe. Now, they are prepared to unleash their most conceptually expansive and musically punishing statement yet. On 25 September 2026, Metalite will officially release their highly anticipated studio album, Discovery, via Perception / Reigning Phoenix Music.Discovery serves as a direct, sweeping sci-fi sequel to their previous narrative arcs, continuing an epic storyline that explores human evolution, advanced technology, and space survival in an increasingly unstable digital age. Musically, the album introduces a massive step forward in overall production and performance. Mixed and mastered by the legendary Danish producer Jacob Hansen, who is famed for his work with Volbeat, Evergrey, and Amaranthe, the record delivers a crushing, heavier low-end. It masterfully showcases an aggressive wall of sound that doesn't compromise the band's signature melodic shine. This brand new record also marks the studio debut of new drummer Erik Junttila, who infuses the technical compositions with a blistering, fresh rhythmic precision.Ahead of the full release, fans have already been treated to a diverse spread of singles that showcase the sheer breadth of Discovery. High-energy tracks like Our Time Has Come and Starchild set a fast, triumphant pace, while the heavy rhythms of In Case of Emergency offer a powerful commentary on loyalty and mutual support amidst modern chaos. More recently, the deeply evocative single Echoes of You revealed a darker, highly emotional side to the album, emphasizing the haunting nature of persistent memories and demonstrating the profound vocal range of frontwoman Erica Ohlsson. From complex synth arrangements to bone-shattering guitar work, Discovery stands as a bold declaration of innovation in modern power metal.We had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Metalite mastermind Edwin Premberg to talk all things Discovery. In this insightful conversation, we pull back the curtain on the creative process behind writing songs around an overarching science fiction narrative and dive into the band's deliberate evolution toward a heavier, more low-end-driven mix. Furthermore, Edwin reflects on the sheer technological leap of producing complex modern music—vividly charting his own journey from writing primitive early tracks on a vintage Amiga 500 computer to commanding a limitless digital recording studio. Grab your headphones, step into the cyberspace matrix, and join us as we dive into the bold new era of Metalite.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

¡Celebramos los tres años de Mexapedia con un Live histórico de aniversario! En este reencuentro lleno de anécdotas, debates crudos y anuncios clave para el metal nacional, el fundador Ángel se reúne con grandes creadores de la escena mexicana como Yusel (Heavy Mextal), Johnny Metal, JC (Goth Productions / Ghost Productions), Coba (Metalmemes) y Tony (Rockardiaco). A lo largo de la transmisión, la plática rememora los inicios de Mexapedia como una enciclopedia que nació con el respaldo de Aztec Metal y que ha ido evolucionando constantemente. La conversación escala rápidamente a un debate sin filtros sobre el estado actual del metal en México, cuestionando si realmente existe una escena o una industria organizada. Los invitados proponen dejar atrás los egos y transformar el concepto de "escena" por el de "Unión Metalera" para avanzar en conjunto y consolidar un verdadero mercado nacional. Uno de los momentos más intensos del Live gira en torno a la cultura de la gratuidad, la falta de profesionalización y el polémico debate sobre el pago nulo a las bandas. Los panelistas coinciden en que gran parte de la escena se ve afectada por una mentalidad arraigada que busca obtener todo de forma gratuita, lo que desincentiva la inversión en equipos, profesionalización y producción de calidad. También se discute con dureza la realidad de las bandas que aceptan tocar sin cobrar o que incluso pagan por tocar en busca de exposición. La conclusión del panel es contundente: para exigir una retribución, las agrupaciones deben comportarse como verdaderos profesionales, contar con herramientas básicas como un presskit y comprometerse activamente con la promoción de su propio material. Para hacer frente a estas dificultades operativas del metal nacional, Ángel presenta la evolución de Mexapedia mediante un ecosistema de herramientas tecnológicas gratuitas diseñadas para facilitar el trabajo de las bandas. Entre ellas destaca Mexatickets, un sistema de boletera digital donde todo el dinero de las entradas llega de manera directa a la cuenta de transferencia de las bandas, cobrando una comisión mínima de solo diez pesos por boleto destinada únicamente al mantenimiento de la plataforma.

Interview by Angela CroudaceGerman power metal veterans StormHammer are embracing a heavier, more aggressive direction on their upcoming album Wrath of the Hammer, due for release on July 17, while still staying true to their melodic foundations.Bassist Horst Tessmann revealed the album marks a deliberate shift back towards the sound of Welcome to the End after the more melodic approach of Seven Seals. Following years of lineup changes and delays, he said the band is finally where they want to be creatively."The title track represents the new album and the style of the band quite well," Horst explained, describing it as the perfect introduction to StormHammer's evolved sound.Rather than drawing from any single influence, Horst credited guitarists Phil and Christos for naturally blending classic heavy metal, thrash, progressive and punk elements into the songwriting. He also praised producer Alexander Krull, whose experience as a vocalist helped push singer Manuel into delivering more emotionally charged performances.Although Australian fans may have to wait for a live appearance due to touring costs, Horst said StormHammer hopes strong support for Wrath of the Hammer could eventually make it happen, but the band are already looking ahead, with work on their next album underway and a planned release targeted for autumn 2027.Check out the full interview for more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

“I wonder if we'll get a cease and desist on this episode…” Generally speaking, whenever someone says “Slayer” or “Metallica”, you think of two veteran thrash bands which both formed in 1981 and both released their debut albums in 1983. This is common knowledge among most fans of both of these bands. Ironically, there's another band who follows this exact same timeline of forming in 1981 and releasing their debut album in 1983, yet at the time, they were NOT at all thrashy…not even close. Most of us know of PANTERA as the brutally heavy, groove metal masters from Arlington, Texas who lit a proverbial fire under the ass of the thrash and heavy music scene in 1990 with their “major label” debut album (with the emphasis, in this case, on the words “major label”) as CFH was actually their FIFTH studio album. Fifth? Wait a minute…what about THE FIRST FOUR studio albums!? And why are those albums not talked about and celebrated just like all things PANTERA!? Well, there's a reason that THE FIRST FOUR aren't really talked about or acknowledged. Actually, there are probably a multitude of reasons, but the most glaring one is the stylistic difference between their early glam and power metal days and the heavier, grittier era when they truly became the “Cowboys From Hell”. Remember those awkward Olan Mills pictures you used to take with the family, or better yet, the pictures of you in high school with that absurd, dorky hairstyle that people always like to bring up in conversation? That's kinda what THE FIRST FOUR ALBUMS by PANTERA were like. Always remember that “Dokken is better than KISS” and you absolutely have to “pill up before PT”. Find out why “concubine” is a much cooler term than girlfriend, why the stress of having multiple families can be fatal, and realize that most doctors' definition of “prescription pain medication” is painfully incorrect and a complete waste of a prescription pad. Get ready to find out which Pantera album came out on Rex's 20th birthday, which song features Dime on lead vocals, and understand that while we absolutely did not plan for this to be episode 333, it just so happened to turn out that way. Brace yourselves and get your relaxers ready before you JOIN US as we go back to the 80's to get a better idea of why one of the greatest metal bands of all time tried to bury their earliest work (and original “not as metal” logo) with THE FIRST FOUR from the mighty PANTERA.

Jack and Erin read horror stories from a NYC dog walker with some very wealthy clients. Then they take yet another bespoke quiz, but this time they must decide if the passage is a bible verse or a power metal lyric! What is "power metal" as opposed to the other metals? Who can say? Finally, they close the show with a riddling horoscope that will leave you (and them) puzzled. Happy December!!
