  • Autistic Metal Fan Hear Metal Podcast, Listens, Mind Blown.

    I’m a simple minded man who’s really liked listening to all sorts of music, but black metal is one of my favorite genres. So many combinations can come from this kind of genre, and this podcast definitely has my fix! Damn straight music podcasts like this are what keep this old world spinning.

  • Good stuff

    A varied, often surprising weekly selection of different kinds of heavy stuff by a metal DJ who speaks in a normal voice and isn’t afraid to go against generally accepted opinions. Hence, probably the only radio show/podcast where you can hear cuts from Kreator’s Renewal and Endorama.

  • The best extreme metal show on terrestrial radio, period. The host has forgotten more than you will ever learn about the subject, and every show is metal school. He doesn't just play old, or new, or death, or black, but rather a healthy mix of all. Some shows are themed, but most are just brilliantly curated extreme metal playlists. 10/10 would recommend lol ?????
