DOWN WITH THE MOST HIGH PRODUCTIONS: INTERVIEWED BY INTO THE NECROSPHERE

 Record and merch label DOWN WITH THE MOST HIGH PRODUCTIONS was recently interviewed by INTO THE NECROSPHERE.  

FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE: 

This week I’m joined by Daniel Rabadán Gayoso, the man behind Down With The Most High Productions. What started in 2008 as a DIY merchandise and record label has evolved into something far more ambitious, combining extreme metal, craftsmanship, art and an uncompromising commitment to doing things properly, with the spectacular Celtic Frost, Emperor and Marduk collections being perhaps the ultimate expression of that philosophy. Daniel and I get into the origins of Down With The Most High, his decision to resurrect the label and take it full-time, the years of work that went into the Celtic Frost project, and why preserving the spirit and legacy of extreme metal means refusing to compromise.

Then it’s time for another news rant, and this week I’m rounding up the latest singles by OVÁTE, Armagedda (Official), Werewolves, Mother of Graves, Servant, Konvent and others for judgement. I also talk about some of my favourite black metal songs recorded after 2020, I scour Slayer’s post-Diabolos back catalogue in the hopes of finding something worth listening to and it all culminates in a savage Swirly of the Week, as Slipknot and their maggots pay a visit to the Porcelain Bowl of Reckoning.

Plus: Australian black metallers, Duskveiled soak up the glory of the Unsanctioned Filth spotlight with a track from their debut record, Winters of the Soul.

Out now on all digital platforms.

FROM OBSCURA: 

OFFICIAL STATEMENT – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are issuing this statement to provide clarity to our fans, business partners, promoters, media representatives and the wider OBSCURA community regarding a number of legal matters.

Since February 2026, criminal complaints and applications for prosecution have been filed in Germany concerning several individuals in connection with publications and conduct which we consider to contain defamatory, insulting, factually inaccurate or otherwise potentially unlawful content.

In parallel, civil legal steps are also being pursued in relation to the losses and other legal claims arising from these matters.

For the avoidance of doubt, these matters do not concern a single incident. The material submitted to the relevant authorities relates to publications and conduct dating from 2015 to the present day, including disputed factual allegations concerning OBSCURA and its members, copyright and intellectual property matters, the publication of personal information, and other conduct which we have asked the competent authorities to examine under German law.

The consequences have extended beyond OBSCURA itself. Several international companies and professional partners have also been affected, including companies which have reported receiving threats or other forms of improper pressure in connection with these matters. Some have suffered significant financial losses and are providing relevant information and supporting documentation to the competent authorities.

The public allegations have also had practical consequences for our international activities, including significant difficulties in obtaining the necessary visas for performances in China.

We have submitted supporting documentation and relevant evidence and will continue to co-operate fully with the competent authorities.

We respectfully ask our fans, media representatives, business partners and fellow musicians not to contribute to speculation, personal attacks or further public disputes concerning these matters. We believe they should be dealt with through the established legal process.

Please do not mistake allegations published online for established facts.

We will therefore refrain from making further public statements regarding the substance of these matters whilst the relevant legal processes are ongoing.

Listen to music, not allegations.

OBSCURA

ITP V.026 SPORTS: THANK YOU HOWIE ROSE (NEW YORK METS RADIO ANNOUNCER)

 

PUT IT IN THE BOOKS! 

Legendary NEW YORK METS BASEBALL radio announcer HOWIE ROSE is retiring and today is his last game, on the last home game of the season for the NEW YORK METS. 

 HOWIE ROSE was also a radio announcer for the NEW YORK ISLANDERS and NEW YORK RANGERS hockey clubs back in the 90's. 

ITP V.026 EDITORS NOTE: Here in New York we've been lucky to have great sports announcers. From MARV ALBERT, (NEW YORK KNICKS, NATIONAL ANNOUNCER), JOHN STERLING (NEW YORK YANKEES RADIO BROADCASTER-RIP),and the NEW YORK RANGERS TV ANNOUNCER SAM ROSEN. 

Also current announcers MIKE BREEN and WALT CLYDE FRASIER for the NEW YORK KNICKS..

GARY  (COHEN), KEITH (HERNANDEZ) and RON. (DARLING) for the NEW YORK METS. 

I'll miss HOWIE ROSE's calls on the radio, he was "Amazin'".  Hopefully THE NEW YORK METS and PHILADELPHIS PHILLIES can get a game in today vs. inclement weather as the game starts at 1:10pm.  

FROM 7 LINE: 

The Mets aren't responsible for the weather, but having this forecast on the last day of the home schedule, and on Howie's retirement day is such a bummer. Par for the course with how this season went. Still no call on the game. Hopefully soon.
