Send us a textEpica returns in full force with their 9th studio album, Aspiral — a testament to their evolution as symphonic metal mainstays. We recently caught up with powerhouse vocalist Simone Simons to discuss the journey behind the record, shaped by over two decades of experience and artistic growth. Drawing from the joys and challenges of motherhood and the rhythm of everyday life, Simone shares how these personal layers have fueled her creative fire. The album's title, "Aspiral," was inspired by a 1965 sculpture by Polish artist Stanisław Szukalski — representing the intricate, winding paths carved by the band's collective vision.Known for their grandiose sound and commanding live shows, Epica shows no signs of slowing down. With Aspiral in their arsenal, they continue to push boundaries while honoring the symphonic metal tradition they helped define. Simone also speaks on the thriving creative community she's cultivated through Patreon, a space that's inspired new artistic outlets beyond music, including photography. Aspiral is out now via Nuclear Blast Records — stream it, buy it, and experience it. Stay connected with Epica, visit: https://www.epica.nl/, https://www.instagram.com/epicaofficial/, and https://www.facebook.com/epica/SIMONE'S PATREON! - https://www.patreon.com/simonesimonsStay connected with IUF, visit: https://interviewunderfire.com/

As a musician, finding a band to join can become very difficult. There are not always friends around who share the same vision as you. To start a band, different things have to fit: characters, skill levels, music style choices, availabilities, and ambitions. In this episode, Pia asks Kiki about her journey as a musician and Joko comes back to tell us about her experiences, which include several collaborations and sharing the stage with CALIBAN, while she looks for her next band. Together, we also discuss whether searching for a band is even more difficult for women, gender double standards in the matter, and we try to find a male vocalist who “does it all”.

Women in Metal are awesome. We touch on a few bands in this but highly encourage people to check out all the female fronted and full female bands that are emerging in the metal industry.

We all miss festivals, but have you ever thought about how we experience them as women? Should all festivals have women-only camping areas? And are there even enough female musicians good enough to be on festival billings? In this episode, Kiki, Pia, and Steffi discuss their experiences at festivals, how important it is to have more and more women on festival stages, and how we can make female musicians more visible. This is our last episode before our first-ever summer break. We will be back in September but, until then, you can give our other episodes a listen.

Leoni is Head of Media Relations and Tiffany is Head of Marketing in one of the biggest record labels in heavy music, Nuclear Blast. We had the pleasure of talking to them about their work, sexism in Metal, and marketing strategies for newcomer bands. The fact that women have always been a part of the heavy music scene and belong in Metal is apparently still not anchored in the brain of many metalheads. Leo and Tiff are doing a great job standing up to sexist comments in the social media posts of Nuclear Blast. Jingle by MERCY ISLE. www.metal-and-highheels.com Metal, Lifestyle & Entertainment

It had been too long since the last time we had Marcela Bovio on the podcast, so there was A LOT to catch up on.

Apple Music pissed me off this month. They put together their little pop celebration of Women in Music but completely overlooked updating the Heavy Metal & Alternative Rock section for Women’s History Month! I made this podcast episode as a remedy for myself.

It is the night of the Deceased and KING FOWLEY calls into the show giving us a surreal overdose of information on the band. Have you observed the convoluted mess that black metal has seemingly become? Heard what our metal media call "Women In Metal"?...

Este é um dos temas que o Wikimetal queria fazer desde sua fundação e agora finalmente saiu do papel: Women In Metal, as mulheres do Metal. A história das mulheres no Metal é tão rica que é impossível abordar tudo. Ainda assim, o episódio traz vários sons históricos, entrevista com as Iron Maidens, Flash Concert, abertura com IDs de verdadeiras ícones do Metal feminino e muitas histórias da valiosa presença das mulheres no Heavy Metal. No "Orgulho Nacional" deste episódio, como não podia deixar de ser, temos o Shadowside, banda que traz a vocalista Dani Nolden representando as mulheres do Metal Nacional.
