GODTHRYMM unleashed "A GRAND RECLAMATION" (EP), 3/16/2018 via TRANSCENDING OBSCURITY.

FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE:

This week Catherine and Hamish Glencross join me for a raucous, wide-ranging discussion featuring a deep dive into the making of the new Projections record by Godthrymm. We explore the evolution of the band’s sound across their three-album discography, Catherine’s increasingly prominent role on newer material, and the perks and pitfalls of balancing marriage, family and careers with life in a band. Along the way, Hamish also shares insights from his time with Vallenfyre and My Dying Bride — and I drop a huge announcement of my own.

Then it’s on to the Weekly News Rant, where I round up the latest singles from Verzauber, Chamber of Unlight, Left to Die, Witch Club Satan and more for judgment. I also share my list of must-see bands at this weekend’s Fortress Festival, talk about my favourite film scores, and plenty more besides.

PLUS: Irish blackened death metal upstarts Leadbelcher deliver a “Premiere On The Sphere” with their latest single — while reanimating a fallen icon because you’re starved for attention and money earns a one-way trip to the porcelain bowl of reckoning for this week’s Swirly of the Week.

Episode 318 is now on your favourite digital platform

THE BERZERKER: ANNOUNCE SHOW AT NUEROSONIC FESTIVAL 8/22/2026 @ MANSFIELD TAVERN

Australian industrial, grindcore metal warriors THE BERZERKER have announced a SHOW AT NUEROSONIC FESTIVAL 8/22/2026 @ MANSFIELD TAVERN..

THE BERZERKER have posted a video for "SHUT THE FUCK UP" , unleashed 12/25/2025.

THE BERZERKER unleashed "THE REAWAKENING", 9/1/2008 via BERZERKER INDUSTRIES.

FROM THE BERZERKER:

I need to be straight with you lot.

We stopped playing live because I couldn't give you the show you deserved. My back was wrecked, the tech was primitive, and every gig felt like I was fighting the equipment instead of using it. The Berzerker was supposed to be a sensory overload — speed, chaos, precision violence — and we were delivering maybe 60% of that on a good night.

I refused to do that anymore.

17 years later, the game has changed. Modern mixing desks, in ear monitors, seamless sample playback, lighting integration, the whole production stack — it's finally at a level where I can construct this thing properly. Where the machine does what I need it to do, and I can focus on delivering the sonic assault without my body falling apart in the process.

So we're doing one show. One proper show. The way this was always meant to be.

Necrosonic Festival 2026 — Saturday 22 August, Mansfield Tavern, Brisbane.

Come witness what The Berzerker actually sounds like when the technology stops getting in the way.

BTW, ITP TEXT is CREATIVE COMMONS and you might look silly as I have bit of black list in the music industry and beyond. A couple of issues I would like to address: ITP DOES NOT like PSYCHOTIC people following ITP, you're under arrest, I will sue you. ITP does not promote local and regional artists/bands and music venues whom have screwed me over, don't reciprocate or bands, labels, venues I don't like. It is NOT ITP's responsibility for promoting your venue, club or crap band or show, DIY and promote your self, If I don't promote you or your band are awful, the music is awful. ITP only promotes what SHE likes, go play in your own sandbox. I don't promote local or regional bands or/and venues just because they are local, nor do I ignore bands and venues from out of state and out of the U.S. . ITP does not promote main stream music nor mall core..Only extreme metal.. There are a couple of labels that are blacklisted, one that is national socialist. A few bands are blacklisted from ITP, and one or two venues. Obviously is someone gets in fight over ITP there will be consequences, NOT YOURS, ITP owns her own copy right. ITP is not a request journal, it is an extreme metal source for extreme metal news, no hipsters, ITP is my journal. ITP, while a media partner for most labels,does not write for nor work for record labels and is independent of record labels. ITP is not owned by a record label. BTW, regarding monetize for adverts, ITP does not normally do adverts and has not committed to monetize, although I'll look into it, depending on timing and circumstances. Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal and welcome to ITP \m/ -l- ***To experience ITP at it's fullest capabilities you'll need a good browser (MOZILLA FIREFOX or SAFARI) and a fast MODEM/CONNECTION (CABLE or WI FI) to enjoy the videos and a good set of HEADPHONES or/and speakers to enjoy the SOUND and brutality.
