This weeks episode was a little shambolic in parts due to me being under the weather and my darling cat having to be part of the show, I also had some computer issues but apart from that, the episode is an emotional run through the latest release of giants of the extreme metal world Venom.Inc If you feel brave enough here is the links for an interview i had with Tony Dolan before the launch of the album ( excuse my mic it for some reason failed and that why i bought a new one https://www.faceboo...

But as i do it went on for a good hour and we covered a lot of Sabbath era stuff mostly Headless Cross and TYR. He...

Come with me on my journey through the heavy side of Italian horror and the craziness of soundtrack collecting. My journey has been long and exciting and it all started it the 70's when i visited Dark They Where And Golden Eyed to the original Forbidden Planet in Denmark Street. Exciting journeys into film madness with my brother. Horror movies have always been part of my life and heavy metal and heavy themes are always linked from the crazy Video nasties to the weird and wacky and nasty Italian...
Come with me and hear why i think the new WITCHERY album is a modern day blackened thrash album that is a prog rock wonder and a new twist on the concept album Its deliciously free from the constraints of modern metal but with heaps of groove laden moments and some of the best industrial and Doom punctuations of the last few years. https://www.facebook.com/HeavyMetalTones Hosted on Acast.
