FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE: 

 

This week I’m joined by Justin Greaves and Belinda Kordic to discuss the making of the latest 𝙲𝚁𝙸𝙿𝙿𝙻𝙴𝙳 𝙱𝙻𝙰𝙲𝙺 𝙿𝙷𝙾𝙴𝙽𝙸𝚇 offering, Sceaduhelm. We dive deep into the album’s influences and the inspiration behind many of its tracks. Along the way, we also explore Justin and Belinda’s individual musical journeys — from Justin growing up around his father’s record store, which helped shape his remarkably broad musical palette, to Belinda’s evolution from extreme metal screamer into one of the most stirring and distinctive vocalists in heavy music today.

On the Weekly News Rant, Sheriff Michael Scondotto returns by popular demand to help round up the latest singles for judgment and mull over the metal issues of the day. We give our first impressions of new tracks by Anthrax, Madball, Forsmán and others, while also answering some of your questions.

PLUS: two servings of Unsanctioned Filth courtesy of Christbane with a track from their upcoming record, Antichrist, alongside the bleak death metal stylings of UK extremists Aeffect.

The band are super excited about the prospect of working with Kam and are looking forward to going back on the road in one of their favourite territories.

Here is a direct message from the Man Himself;

“I am excited to be joining Benediction as vocalist for the LATAM tour. Given my long-term friendship with Dave Ingram, it was vital for me to obtain his dark blessing before stepping into this position.

The band has been aided by notable talent, including Oscar Rilo and Dave Hunt, who have both delivered impressive live performances.

I'm eager to follow their lead and hope to adequately represent the band and satisfy the fans.”
