E145 Johannes Eckerström of Avatar

It smells like a freakshow on this episode of The Adamantium Podcast as we’re joined by vocalist, Johannes Eckerström, of Swedish heavy metal band, Avatar. We discuss their next album plans and how it will diverge in theme and style from their last two, Hunter Gatherer & Avatar Country. We also talk about the conception and importance of the clown makeup, their ambitious Kickstarter film featurette, “Legend of Avatar Country: A Metal Odyssey,” and how even their death metal is influenced by artists like ABBA and The Beatles.
