The Metalface Podcast

Timely as ever, here's out reflections on Bloodstock 2021 to get you pumped for next week! Josh gets wedgied, Tom gets wankered and Ben gets weird.

This week we’re talking the one and only Bloodstock Open Air 2021!Tom reminisces about trench foot, broken bones and almost blinding someone. Ben gets fat in the slow pit, and Josh reports from darkest Cornwall.

EP. 17 - This week we’re talking ‘Time I’ by Wintersun, ‘Here Come The Waterworks By Big Business’ and ‘Holy Diver’ by DIo.Tom gets Bavarian, Josh becomes a son of winter and stars, and Ben dabbles in the witchcraft.

We’re talking Soen’s ‘Imperial’, Chthonic’s ‘Takasago Army’ and Decapitated’s ‘Organic Hallucinosis’!Bloodstock is declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Tom falls asleep to Soen and Ben questions his choices.

We finally arrive at our grindcore special. This week we’re doing six albums not three: Agoraphobic Nosebleed’s ‘Agorapocalypse’, Magrudergrind’s ‘Magrudergrind’, Goolagoon’s ‘Life Of Crime’, Slund’s ‘Lean Mean Slunding Machine’, Sordo’s ‘The Pain I Have Everyday’, and finally Chainsaw Squid’s Detroit Split. It gets weird.

This week we’re talking ‘Once’ by Nightwish, ‘In The Constellation Of The Black Widow’ by Anaal Nathrakh, and ‘Fortress’ by Protest The Hero. Josh plays a fun game with a shopkeeper, Ben is suspicious of the elves, and Tom holds his children close and prays for oblivion.

This week we talk about 'Family The Smiling Thrush' - the eagerly awaited album by stoner / prog / doom masters; Boss Keloid.

We’re back with ‘Black Sabbath’ by Black Sabbath, ‘Indestructible’ by Disturbed, and ‘Sunset On The Golden Age’ by Alestorm! Josh witnesses a brutal murder, Ben gets patriotic about day drinking, and Tom finally admits he’s nothing but a dirty landlubber. Avast!

What! No Music!? That's right. We look back over 12 episodes of heavy metal related stupidity, and reflect on our favourite albums of the season.We also discuss podcasts, metal, cartography, and a bit more metal. Josh claims to have played in a folk band, Ben colludes in the Horus Heresy, and Tom makes a terrible error.

EP. 11 - We’re going big with Linkin Park’s ‘Hybrid Theory’, Ghost’s ‘Meliora’ and Rammstein’s ‘Rammstein’. Tom delivers his judgement on Linkin Park, Josh hasn’t been possessed by spooky spirits yet, and Ben makes a rash purchase.
