MetalCast - The Ultimate Metal Podcast Show

I'll be checking it, Si, thanks!

LOVED the dawn of tears, some of the best death I've heard in a while

Great show!

Hi Si, glad you like Arkona. I can tell you that each album is worth getting. Of course, one more than the other, but overall you cannot go wrong with these Russians. :-)

Watch Me Bleed is indeed a new band. Though it consists of members who have already quite some experience in the field.

First time I'd heard Defiance. Very, very cool - reminds me of High On Fire, but with better production/arrangement.

Another awesome episode. You guys are the best! Thank you!!

Hi Thomas. Thanks for the feedback. :-) About Defiance, do check out their first three albums, as they are more old school and very much worth it. If possible, get the Insomnia boxset: http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=163663

Thanks for playing Nervecell. I'd never heard of them before. They are now the 2nd Middle Eastern metal band in my library (after Orphaned Land).

Tim :D :D :D :D, with a girlfriend living in Japan till July, 2010, I do need what you suggested, haha.

Guys, I hope you enjoy it, as I said, always a pleasure :)

Strange episode. Melodic and powerful on one hand, extreme and harsh on the other. Talk about contrasts. ;-) A job very well done, once again, despite having to work fast.

I didn't have the time to come up with something more original :D, power/ melodic - extreme/ extreme - power/ melodic - extreme/ extreme :D

It turned out fine, I guess :)

@Marcus: I got the Nargaroth "Jahreszeiten" album shortly after the podcast episode. Like you said, it is a mesmerizing album. Thanks for the recommendation of this album!

Thanks for the comment, Lloyd. :-) About your suggestion, i have to admit I don't know any of the mentioned bands. But I'll try to check them out.

Regarding this episode: My apologies, for another error has slipped into the tracklisting and it's only now that I realize it: Gwyllion's song is called "Roots Of Reality", not Eternity. Roots Of Eternity is Manticora's debut album. Well, it was a pretty hectic time, with the reviews and getting to make the playlist. But either way, Gwyllion is a band one must check out, for they're absolutely worth it.

I'll pay more attention to the titles for the upcoming episodes, lol. ;-)... See More

Trigger the Bloodshed had been getting a lot of props from Terrorizor magazine, and though I haven't personally heard them, thats as good an endorsement as any in my opinion
:)

Thanks, Łukasz!

Lloyd, that's what I think it's important, that people find at least some of the songs on a style they aren't interested on enjoyable.

I'm happy with the responses. Thanks a lot once again!... See More

Hey, there could be something to that...the episode could be called "Songs for the Drinking Man." Definitely some Korpiklaani, probably some Alestorm, and perhaps Metallica's rendition of "Whisky in the Jar." Could be interesting.

This week was great. I too have an ever-growing list of bands to learn more about because of the MetalCast!

Eh.. Si, YOU suggested this, so don't complain ("dodgy"), ok? ;-) ;-) Glad you liked the end result. :-)
