Episode 11 - The Morrigan in Celtic Metal

Episode 11 - The Morrigan in Celtic Metal

In the next comparison episode we arrive to the most grief filled figure of Irish mythology, the goddess called the Morrigan. Her figure is really inspiring for Celtic Metal, thus now I examine songs from bands like Suidakra, Waylander, Primordial, Cruachan and Darkest Era.

Episode 8 - A detour to Arrakis: on Dune by Denis Villeneuve

Episode 8 - A detour to Arrakis: on Dune by Denis Villeneuve

A bonus episode that is not dealing with metal today, but aims to pay an hommage to the recently released adaptation of Frank Herbert's Dune. My very personal opinion about Denis Villeneuve's piece.

Episode 7 - Graveyards, Gothic Romance and Halloween: The art of Cradle of Filth

As the feast of Halloween is upon us it is time to take a look on one of the most infulental extreme gothic metal band's aesthetics. Cradle of Filth is the manifest of literature, mythology and history inspired British gloom, with a lifespan of 30 years revolving around the most gruesome and lustful topics in a manner never replicated since. Join me in the preparation of Samhain!

Episode 6 - Necromanticism or in Deathly Memory of Necros Christos

Episode 6 - Necromanticism or in Deathly Memory of Necros Christos

Berlin based genies Necros Christos was one of the best of mystical crypt lurking death metal acts. As the new formation of former band members named as Sijjin is going to publish soon their debut album it could be time to a look back on the career and works of Necros Christos. I do not claim to be in possession of the whole truth about the band but here you can listen to my reading of their work. Come with me to a katabasis into the depths of graves and mysticism!

Episode 4 - Casting Down the Heretic: Akhenaten, Amarna and Metal Music

Episode 4 - Casting Down the Heretic: Akhenaten, Amarna and Metal Music

Amenhotep IV or more commonly known as Akhenaten is one of the most interesting pharaohs of ancient Egyptian history. The pharaoh who tried to reform all Egypt's religion was later cursed for eternity, a great topic for metal musicians to talk about. Please be welcomed for a short analysis of his reform and its impact on metal lyrics, featuring bands like Nile, Therion, Nightfall and Bay Leaf!

Episode 3 - On the "Fortitude" of Gojira

Episode 3 - On the "Fortitude" of Gojira

Gojira's name is one with high quality metal music and meaningful lyrics revolving around humanity and its relation towards environment. The green knights of the metal scene showed us their fresh thoughts in music and lyrics that I wish to contextualize within their career and driving programme.

Episode 2 - Grief of a Metalhead

Episode 2 - Grief of a Metalhead

Málmhaus or Metalhead by Ragnar Bragason (2013) was one of the best ever movies about metal, or about how to cope with trauma through metal. A still relevant motion picture that I wish today to analyse for you a bit, making the mood for a thinking rewatch session.
