Having returned from my travels with a huge pile of new music to play, this episode is filled to the brim with over a dozen fresh dark entries, as well as a selection of classics, a few requests, updates on current tours, current sounds, and the latest news. Here's what to expect...

The show formally begins with a selection from An Instructional Guide for Aspiring Arsonists, the latest album from The Deadfly Ensemble, which once again features the talents of Lucas Lanthier (Cinema Strange), as well as Marzia Rangel from Christ vs. Warhol, just to name two. Having signed to Projekt Records for this release, Stateside fans should find it easier to come by in record stores. If not, it can be ordered here.

Proving yet again to be among the most prolific of artists, ROME have returned with not only a new EP (Fester), but a whole new album in the form of Hell Money. Needless to say, it's wonderful, but don't just take my word for it. Listen to one of my favorites on this podcast to feel it yourself, then order it here.

On the verge of hitting the road with Velvet Acid Christ (who also have a new song on this episode), The Twilight Garden returns, this time on Metropolis Records, with the title track from their new album Hope, cementing their ethereal take on the darkwave/post-punk style.

Also returning on this episode: Germany's Aeon Sable, with an upbeat post-punk/goth preview of their forthcoming Saturn Return album; Killing Joke, with a Jaz-in-your-face selection from their latest, MMXII; and Ludovico Technique, with the song for which they've just released an official video. Check it out here:




Also listen for a pair of premieres from: NOIR, a new darkwave/electronic project from Athan Maroulis (Black Tape for a Blue Girl, Spahn Ranch), whose new single is entitled My Dear; as well as some requested new post-punk sounds from the Bay Area's The Soft Moon, taken from their latest release, Zeros.

In the dark metal portion of the show, you'll hear a brand new track from Portland's Atriarch, whose new album Ritual of Passing has just come out on Canada's Profound Lore Records. If the idea of taking deathrock influences into apocalyptic doom excites you as it does me, you can pick that album up here. Meanwhile, Idaho's Wolvserpent, who have just inked a deal with Relapse Records, have elected to publicly release the initial demos for their forthcoming Perigaea album, so that fans can witness the progression of the material. Listen for a taste of it at the close of this show, and grab your copy of those demos here. And, as a bonus, you can watch their video preview below:




You will hear all of that on this episode, plus: A collection of recently gathered cult vampire film themes, a bit of melancholy-yet-responsible nostalgia, otherwise forgotten gems, and even more current & classic music to suck the light out of your surroundings.

This episode was recorded in the midst of much preparation and excitement over the upcoming Loss/Worm Ouroboros Northwest Tour 2012, so forgive me if it's a bit self-indulgent. It's almost all I can think about right now, and we'll be performing alongside so many great bands that I couldn't resist throwing the spotlight on them.

At the top of the show, you'll hear fresh material from our tour-mates in Worm Ouroboros, who are on the road in support of their latest album, Come the Thaw. Later in the show, you'll hear a set from some of other bands we'll be sharing a stage with -- in cities like Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, Arcata, San Francisco, and Oakland -- which will include brand new music from Bell Witch (whose new album Longing is available here) and Ash Borer, whose latest CD is entitled Cold of Ages (available here). See all the tour dates & info here.

When I return, it will be almost time for the great Turkey Holocaust of 2012 -- but before we get to that, we in Nashville will see the arrival of this fall's Ego Likeness / Cryogen Second Treacherous Tour 2012, which will hit The Rutledge on November 21st (event page here). In light of that, I've thrown the spotlight on those two bands as well. Since most of you are not in Nashville, you can see their full tour dates here.

This episode also brings brand new music from Germany's Golden Apes, whose forthcoming Riot can be heard and pre-ordered here. Ludovico Technique (also on tour) return with one of my favorite selections from their latest album, Some Things Are Beyond Therapy. And for those who wait patiently until the end of the program, the show concludes with a brand new track from Neurosis, taken from the just-released Honor Found In Decay.

All of that, plus: Seldom-heard soundtracks, a dose of classic deathrock/post-punk, and a total run-time of nearly three hours!
