FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE:
This week I welcome back the legendary Sakis Tolis of Greek black metal titans Rotting Christ. We discuss the upcoming “Godless IV” tour alongside Behemoth, Immolation and Deicide, the re-recording of the seminal “Aealo”, and Sakis reflects on the early days of his musical journey — plus plenty more.
Then it’s on to the weekly news rant: No/Mas, Metal Church, Down, Slagmaur and Melechesh all get their latest singles rounded up for judgment. I break down the latest developments surrounding the Nevermore reunion, talk about my favourite lyricists in metal, and deliver what may be my most scathing Swirly yet.
PLUS: Cnoc An Tarsa return with their first album in eight years — and debut a new track on this week’s Premiere On The Sphere.
