In our ninth episode (which roughly marks our 1yr anniversary), we talk many things metal, as usual. Even though we were short one Jack in our deck of many bvds, we had an amazing time, in no small part because we were once again joined by a wonderful guest: activist,musician, fan, incipient show organizer Babsi (Mosh for Animal Rights).
After some convo with our guest about, among other things, all the things that go into organizing a charity metal show, we move on to discuss yet another eclectic selection of heavy music, including the recent releases by (the best band in the world, according to one hvmble bvd) Night Verses â Every Sound Has A Color In The Valley Of Night (00:24:58), Bring Me The Horizon â POST HUMAN:NeX GEn (00:42:04) Imminence â The Black (00:54:50), Knocked Loose â You Wonât Go Before Youâre Supposed To (01:06:46), and Glassing â From The Other Side of the Mirror (01:16:53). After a wild round ofadditional shout-outs to more releases that we just couldnât quite cover with a full review, we naturally take a stroll down memory lane, as we also talk about Darkthrone â Transilvanian Hunger (01:39:46), System Of A Down â Mezmerize (01:49:36), Testament â The Formation Of Damnation (02:00:27), and Heaven Shall Burn â Iconoclast (Pt. 1: The Final Resistance) (02:09:10).
Unfortunately, we were too preoccupied with having the loveliest time and forgot about rating our albums. Oops. But thatâs what show notes are for, eh?
If you do not care for spoilers, skip this bit (although it should come as no surprise to literally nobody that Night Verses are our album of the indeterminate amount of time that passes between episodes):Â
Darkthrone â Transilvanian Hunger 4/10
Bring Me The Horizon â POST HUMAN:NeX Gen 6/10
Imminence â The Black 6/10
Testament â The Formation of Damnation 6/10
Knocked Loose â You Wonât Go ... 7/10
