Jon Krieger, founder and creative force behind the US black metal outfit Blackbraid, makes his long-awaited return to the podcast this week. We dive deep into the creation of his latest album, "Blackbraid III," his bold vision for Blackbraid’s future, his view of the media, his dislike for touring, the ups and downs of staying independent, and plenty more.
Later on, the ferocious Drugoth joins me for the Weekly News Rant. We tackle listener questions, including our favorite bands that disbanded right after dropping one of their strongest albums. We also break down the newest singles from Suffering Hour, Tombs, Dying Fetus, and Inhuman Condition. Plus, we weigh in on Watain's recent announcement to call it quits and I pay tribute to the late, great Tomas Lindberg.
PLUS: An exclusive premiere as Drugoth drops the debut single from his upcoming album, "The Indomitable Spirit of Merciless Vengeance"!
