I caught up with Mother Of Graves guitarist Chris Morrison to talk about the band’s brand new album The Light That Keeps Us, which I’d wager is their best (and saddest) effort to date. We also touched on our collective love of Edge Of Sanity, the magic that is Dan Swanö (and his guest spot on the record), Chris’ history in heavy music, and what we’ve both been listening to lately.

This episode I’m (proverbially) headed back to Sweden for an interview with Peter Tägtgren! We covered everything from the new Pain single to the band getting huge thanks to Nokia ringtones back in the day; Hypocrisy and their shifts in sound; and of course – Bloodbath, specifically their 2004 track “Eaten”.

This week I’ve got progressive metal masterminds Jordan Navarro and Matthew Cerami of the band Iapetus. We pretty extensively talked about the band signing to Willowtip Records, their new record The Mother Void and the band working with vocalist Fabienne Erni of Eluveitie on every single song, and the band’s trip to Sweden to record with Jens Bogren – plus Matt getting really, really sick on the way there.

After going back and forth online about awesome doom bands, I finally had The Acacia Strain guitarist Devin Shidaker on the podcast! We focused pretty heavily on The Acacia Strain’s transition period between Coma Witch and It Comes In Waves, as well as the writing process behind a lot of the newer (and very diverse) stuff. And as seems to be the case every few episodes, we talked about Metallica.

This podcast rules. I get to talk to so many genuinely interesting and thoughtful people from around the world of heavy music, and this week’s episodes are no different! First up is an interview with Jeremy Walker, owner and co- founder of Fire in the Mountains; and Charlie Speicher, founder and executive director of Firekeeper Alliance.

We cover everything from the formation to the current state of the Fire in the Mountains festival, the good work Firekeeper Alliance is doing with suicide reduction and mental wellness in the Blackfeet Nation, and of course – keeping the Neurosis reunion a secret.

Charlie was also kind enough to provide a list of some Native bands, all of which you can check out below:

Welcome to the Mostly Yelling podcast! I'm your host, Greg Kennelty, joined this episode by Ben Umanov formerly of MetalSucks – though you probably know him as Vince Neilstein. We covered everything from the uniqueness of MetalSucks backs in the early 2000s to championing up-and-coming bands like Animals as Leaders and Periphery, to dunking on Tim Lambesis, and of course calling out racists and the real world problems it caused.
