Heavy Metal Tones – Metal Roos Volume 5

This week’s Metal Roos Volume 5 is a power metal special, diving into two separate interviews with the legendary voices of Helloween, Michael Kiske and Andi Deris. Both were promoting the band’s latest album Giants and Monsters, and share not only their thoughts on the record but also personal reflections on their lives, careers, and the journey that has kept Helloween at the forefront of the genre.

Between the interviews, I feature a track from Satin White’s brand-new album Born, bringing a fresh perspective to the episode and showing how new acts are carving their own space in the metal scene.

A mix of legacy and new blood, this episode captures the energy, history, and humanity behind the music.

This week on Heavy Metal Tones I deliver an extended episode diving into the final album from Killing Joke, the band’s last chapter before the passing of guitar legend Geordie Walker in 2023. Part review, part tribute, this lyrical exploration unpacks the record’s intensity, atmosphere, and meaning—including a hidden bonus track found only on the Deluxe Edition. In the middle of the show, I break the journey with something fierce and fresh: a brand-new track from Fall and Resist, one of Australia’s most uncompromising metal forces. Reflection, raw sound, and a farewell to one of heavy music’s most influential figures—this is an episode not to be missed.

This week on Heavy Metal Tones (Episode 236), we dive into the wild, virtuosic world of The Aristocrats. Known for their boundary-pushing fusion of rock, metal, and jazz, the band takes us on a playful yet masterful ride with their instrumental storytelling. At the heart of the journey? One duck’s epic adventure — from the frozen reaches of Antarctica all the way to the bustling streets of New York. Expect jaw-dropping musicianship, quirky twists, and that unmistakable Aristocrats humour woven into their sonic voyage.

Here is as I promised the complete story of DUCK it s a trip an half and no mistake.
