German metallers Lord Vigo should be on your radar for a number of reasons. #1. We recently played them. #2. Their unique monicker really stands out. As does their unique epic doom meets NWOBHM sensibilities sound. #3, and most importantly, they’ve got an awesome new album “Danse De Noir” on the racks courtesy of the good folks at High Roller Records. So now’s the time to get vox/(studio) drummer Vinz…

Slasher Dave is probably most familiar to our listeners as the mainman behind the amazing Acid Witch. But every great artist has a strong versatility to their art. So when Dave’s not killing it with his main gig, his alter ego Slasher Dave creeps out. Dave’s love of all things Horror is never more evident than with the cool sounds this project conjures up. SD’s music is his own instrumental…

Once we sat down with grindcore/powerviolence trailblazer Chris Dodge (Spazz, Depise you, Infest), we knew this was going to be a unique episode. Apart from all these amazing projects he’s plied his trade with, Mr. Dodge has left his mark on a variety of other aspects in the aggressive music community. So we sat down and had one helluva chat with the man. We discussed all his musical output, hailing…

You have to strike while the Irons are hot. As this episode first goes to air, US death metalllers Unmerciful’s latest platter “Wrath Encompassed” will only be a week to the day on the racks. So we had to get bassist Jeremy Turner on the horn. We discussed the band’s switch to Willowtip, his live work with Cannibal Corpse, and quizzed him about any potential King Diamond jokes. But I…

This week we have another veteran we should’ve had on a long time ago. Ash Thomas is a multi instrumentalist who’s been tearing it up in the underground since ’93. Most notable (past?) projects include Crucified Mortals and Archeron. Today Mr. Thomas is killing it with killer outfits like Hell’s Headbangers Faith Xtractor and Shed The Skin. As well as Surgikill featuring Steve O from the legendary Impetigo! With his…

Whats in a name? With their chosen monicker, no doubt young death metal guns Creeping Death have received more than their share of detractors. But to write this outfit off as mere clones would definitely be wrong. In a short period of these Texas bashers are really starting to come into their own. Creeping Death made waves last year with their debut full lengther “Wretched Illusions”. On eOne, no less!…

“Heavy Metal finds a way”. We’re paraphrasing here a bit but the sentiment remains true. With all this crazy covd stuff going on, our beloved genre is still finding ways to entertain us. At the forefront are our good buddies with Reaper Metal Productions. RMP mainman Reaper (d’uh) is no stranger to the show having graced us in the past discussing his various musical projects. Now RMP has a myriad…

Welcome to our Big 6-0-0!! Normally we make a hububaloo about these milestone episodes. But with everything going on in this crazy world we’re pretty much just focused to maintaining our due course. Besides it’s episode 666 thats going to be be the Big One!! That’s not to say that we’re half assing it though. The members of Ritual Dictates are no strangers to Metaldom boasting current and ex members…

For veteran Metallers, Thrust should have a special place in your Metal heart. During the early/mid 80s underground Metal explosion, Thrust’s Metal Blade debut “Fists Held High” was part of that first wave of wicked records that paved the way. The mainman behind the outfit is axeman Ronnie Cooke. Mr. Cooke is an Iron Man of the Metal world and after all these decades he continues to kill it. In…

This week we stare the elephant in the living room right in the eye. The threat and fear of the coronavirus (didn’t they support Anthrax in ’87?) has brought the music scene (and the pop culture world) to a grinding halt. Tours are being postponed or cancelled. Venues are being being shut down. This is affecting your favourite radio show directly. Inactivity on the live front greatly hinders our ability…

Something a little different this week. Metallica axeman Kirk Hammett makes no secret of this other passion…horror flicks. Over the years, Mr. Hammett has amassed quite a collection of vintage horror film posters and memorabilia. Almost a museum’s worth. Or at least a fair amount to warrant its own exhibit. Thus, “It’s Alive! Classic Horror and Sci Fi from the Kirk Hammett Collection” is born. This traveling exhibition made a…
