Evisceradio - E21: Crucifix (Satanic Tea Co)

Drink that tea and blast them death metals! Alberta's heaviest example of what's good in the west sits down with yours truly to discuss tea (of course), the grind of social media presence, what it means to be a practicing Satanist, and more! It never ceases to amaze me that even in an overly saturated extreme metal market, there are those who think wildly outside the box, and stand out. Not just in music, but in marketing as well! This chat was a great one that you must check out! Get your tea and quality metal straight from the source! www.satanicteaco.com

A meeting of the empaths!! Be sure to check out this special interview - I expand my mind and lighten the soul through the channelings of good-viber Sean Sirianni, of The Creative Imbalance. In efforts to broaden my spectrum of interviewees, I start new exploration off on the right foot by conversing with one of Toronto's finest podcast hosts. Lots of ground covered here, and definitely a chat you don't want to miss!The Creative Imbalance:https://www.thecreativeimbalance.com/https://www.youtube.com/@CreativeImbalancehttps://www.instagram.com/thecreativeimbalance/

Another amazing interview for your viewing pleasure! Come sit down with Martin Leth Anderson of the massive Strychnos, where we talk of life/band balance, the writing process for their debut album "A Mothers Curse", what's coming up in 2024, and more!!

Kicking off season two with a bang! In my second chat with Sam Dufour, we discuss the mighty Phobocosm dropping an amazing album later this year called "Foreordained". Stick around and find out what he has to say about the new LP, secret studio tricks, the supporting tour, and more!

Easily one of the most creative collection of minds in the death metal biz, Horrendous have outdone themselves with every release they have put out. Each album is so distinct from the other, all the while making absolutely sure that it is most definitely Horrendous. So many entertaining versions of themselves to discover across their entire discography.. I normally have a quick something-to-say in these few words, but I am at a loss. Horrendous releases are always going to be top-shelf in my collection, and I consider myself a better person for having experienced them. If that doesn't make you want to take a listen, i don't know what will. I've been waiting for this sit-down to happen since I started this little project of mine, and it's finally here!

It's a dead giveaway that I'm into a band when I have the honor of a second round interview! I said it when Death Unchained was out: Nexorum are THE band to keep an eye on. Excellent death metal, with all the right blackened edges, set to smash you flat! Such a blast to listen to, and still gets repeat spins to this day. The new drop, Tongue Of Thorns, is just about to be unleashed, and I again have the pleasure to sit down with Roger and chat about what is happening with this release. Disclaimer: This album is fucking amazing.. And I say that more than a few times in our conversation!

The search for the best melodic metal is never-ending.. So many bands, so many melodies, but when nothing seems to break through and take you away, here is one band that you must be turned on to.. An Abstract Illusion sets the bar high. VERY high. The way they build their soundscape is not only unique in craft, but also in quality. I guarantee that you won't find anything out there quite like this little outfit from Sweden. Pushing the envelop amongst a metaphorical sea of washed-out sounds and half-hearted melodies, they excel in doing what they do best: combining intelligent and modern-leaning compositions with a beautiful and effortless balance of melody and aggression. Very hard to pull off, but An Abstract Illusion don't even break a sweat. Its plainly obvious that the crew here love what they do, and it shows in every second of every song they write. A very recent and extremely pleasant discovery for me! If you haven't heard yet, then most definitely for you too! Do yourself a favor and check these guys out, and enjoy the interview!

Music at 4am. No sleep, the brain is wired. Nothing makes sense. Finding a way to try to sink back into much needed REM, one may turn to music as a way to slip back into slumber. If this sounds like a familiar tactic, then it's likely you have a go-to list of bands that help you on your path. If this is you, then you need Phobocosm. Quebecs's answer to atmosphere and metal, this music is a stunning example of what a soundscape is. Compositionally strong music is what I typically lean towards, and while Phobocosm has that in spades, it's their unique brand of darkness that is what really makes them stand out from the pack. Not just any common death influenced atmo-metal that you can find anywhere mind you, I'm talking about a band that carefully crafts an auditory sensation which distorts the senses: riff, time signature, and even music itself means something different with this act. I consider them to be a part of a small group of bands that not only paint pictures, take you to places, but bridge gaps between what you hear and what you imagine. Nothing else out there gives me visuals like Phobocosm does... Much like sleep deprivation. Which is also a track of theirs that you should most definitely check out.

Hath. Look em up in the dictionary. Google defines it as "archaic third person singular present of have" As in, "Hath this band some of thine best'ith chops in the recent histories?" - The answer is a resounding "Ye". or "Yay". Hath do not fuck around. Their debut LP "Of Rot and Ruin", and their latest monster, "All That Was Promised" is one MOTHER of a one-two combo. I am absolutely a fan of melody and riff alike, and it's safe to say that pretty much anything that comes out these days, I stack it up to this band. Key phrase being "up to", and not "against". That wouldn't be fair to those being measured. One of the happiest of my discoveries during the lockdown days, I turned to this uniquely sick brand of discordant/elegant sound-scapage almost daily, and with all these recent interviews I've uploaded, I have pulled out Hath's discography time and time again throughout, constantly reacquainting myself with this special creative beast. To build something as strong as this band, with as few albums as they have out, is a feat you won't find anywhere else. And believe me, I've looked. I finally sat down with the man behind the kit, A.J. Viana. We talk about studio magic, fatherhood, macros, and more! Have yourself a click and enjoy some quality conversating!

Podcasts are not something I typically indulge in. I know I've been missing out. There are some decent ones for sure, plenty of which are informative ones rooted in debate and opinion, but it's not often that one holds my attention. Enter the pod that broke me in: Men Of Misfortune - Three broskis from Dubuque, Iowa, who have found themselves working a very organic and natural flowing formula, and have been delivering engaging content for well over a year now. Its a pile of laughs, and engaging content that you'd be hard pressed to find elsewhere. Originality is definitely not lost with this crew! What makes them such a time to listen to is not only the topics they cover, but the ways in which they cover them. One segment, Morning Cup of Chaos, is an excellent example of covering crazy shit that us humans are capable of! I wont disclose the formula, and I will not do it justice by attempting a rundown. You'll have to grab a cup of your favorite java (or beer!), and have a listen for yourself! It's as real as it gets here!
