FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE:  

This week Matt Wilcock and Sam Bean from Australian death metal juggernauts, Werewolves, return to the show to discuss their upcoming record, “The Ugliest Of All”. Along the way, we also talk about their experience of releasing music independently, the recent re-issue of The ANTICHRIST IMPERIUM debut album, delve into some Akercocke lore and compare our favourite Commodore 64 game soundtracks.

On my Weekly News rant, I round up the latest singles by Tombs, Internal Bleeding, Imperialist, Ofermod and others for judgment. Plus, I reflect on the passing of Ozzy Osbourne.

FROM BLABBERMOUTH.NET: 

 

The city of Birmingham, United Kingdom will pay its final respects to one of its most cherished cultural icons Ozzy Osbourne as his cortège and family visit Broad Street in the city that he loved.

On Wednesday, July 30, the hearse and accompanying vehicles will slowly make their way down Broad Street from 1 p.m. to the Black Sabbath Bridge and bench, where thousands of fans have left heartfelt messages and floral tributes in recent days. The cortège will be accompanied by a live brass band performance by local musicians from Bostin' Brass, bringing a final musical moment to honor the extraordinary life and legacy of Ozzy Osbourne.

The event is expected to draw large crowds as fans gather to say goodbye to the man who helped shape the global heavy metal genre and who proudly carried the spirit of Birmingham throughout his career, whilst allowing his family a chance to see the many memories his loyal fans have left alongside flowers and tributes.
