PODCAST: October 20th, 2011

[DOWNLOAD this episode (128k mp3)]

This week's show begins with a nod to one of the godfathers of horror cinema, Mr. Bela Lugosi, whose October 20th birthday could not be overlooked on a show such as this. It's hard to believe, but Bela was born back in 1882, so he would have been 129 this year, were he not (un)dead. Having recently re-watched "The Hunger" (1983), I found a renewed interest in the extremely well-used Bauhaus classic "Bela Lugosi's Dead," so for multiple reasons, this was the week to roll that song out at the top of the show.

For new music this week, you will hear further dark entries from Zola Jesus, who will be hitting Atlanta this coming Tuesday (Oct. 25th), as her Conatus tour arcs through the South. You'll also hear new material from a cavalcade of Metropolis Records artists, including Diary of Dreams, System Syn, and Imperative Reaction.

Further into the industrial spectrum, this week's show features a first-taste of HandOver, the forthcoming album from industrial pioneers, Skinny Puppy. Local Nashville artists Cryogen Second spill forth with another fine track from their Anthem for the Great Self Destruct album, as well.

Also on this week's show: New black metal sounds from Portland's Chasma, some not-to-be-forgotten local deathrock/goth, a blanket of ethereal pieces during the first set, and much more.

PODCAST: October 6th, 2011 - World Zombie Day Edition

[DOWNLOAD this episode (128k mp3)]

This Saturday, October 8th, is World Zombie Day. How could I resist that, you ask? I couldn't. Hence, this week's show, which started out just having one zombie-themed set, has now exploded into an entire zombie-themed episode. Of corpse, not all of the selections are *about* zombies, per se, but many of them certainly are, and each title fits into a larger picture of living death, walking corpses, necrophilia, communion with the deceased, and other brain-eating topics.

So, what does World Zombie Day really mean? It's a day set aside for people all over the world to celebrate their zombie fandom by dressing up like corpses and participating in large zombie walks. In Nashville, The 2011 Nashville Zombie Walk will take place this Saturday afternoon, October 8th, starting at Riverfront Park in lovely downtown Nashville. If you wish to "Walk Among Us," we start gathering at 3pm, then walk at 4pm. And please, if you're joining us, remember to bring some canned food for donation to the Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle TN.

Can't make it to a zombie walk, but wish to donate anyway? You can participate in this year's Virtual Food Drive. Just click what you'd like to donate, adjust the quantity, and checkout just like you would in any online store.

Aside from 2 hours of songs chosen to suit the theme of undeath and the dead, this episode also features some new material. The current line-up of The Misfits have just released a new album entitled The Devil's Rain. You'll hear a cut from that, so you can decide whether you'd like to catch them on their current tour.

Also new to the show this week: Falloch, out of Scotland, who close this episode with a track from their new album Where Distant Spirits Remain. They have been billed as "post black metal," but I would compare them more to a band like Alcest, who clearly do exhibit some black metal influences, but land more in the realm of what I'd call indie-metal -- scary thought? You tell me.

This week's show is on the short and sweet side -- but, it's just a little shorter, and it's my definition of sweet, so don't despair. There's a good reason for that, though. It's been a great week, and that has translated into some of this week's more lively selections. I had to cut things a bit shorter to prepare for traveling to the Horror Weekend convention in Gatlinburg this weekend (featuring guests like ohGr from Skinny Puppy and Doug Jones from "Pan's Labyrinth"). If you're going, perhaps I'll see you there.

For new material this week, you'll hear from the aforementioned Skinny Puppy frontman, ohGr, from his latest solo release, Undeveloped, which may just be his best solo album yet (get it here). He'll also be hosting a special Midnight screening of "Repo! The Genetic Opera" this weekend at the convention in Gatlinburg, TN.

You'll also get a taste of one of the great b-sides to the new Cruxshadows single, Valkyrie, which is now available outside of the convention circuit by clicking here or here. The band is currently hard at work on their forthcoming new album, As the Dark Against My Halo.

Montréal's Dekoder make their debut on the show this week, with a promising taste of their 2011 demo (available as a FREE download here). If you can imagine finding out that Pat Benatar secretly had a deathrock band on the side during the '80s, you'd be on your way to loving this band.

Rounding out the new material is another track from the brand new Wolves in the Throne Room album, Celestial Lineage. This one showcases a bit more of their ethereal side, yet still arrives in chaos by the end, as they are known to do.

The rest of the show? Splashes of great cinematic post-punk/horror-punk & deathrock, celebration over upcoming American concerts from The Cure, the long-awaited release info for the Brighter Fires full-length, some of the catchiest new industrial in recent memory, and more.

It's hard to believe, but for the first time ever, I was able to try something that I've wanted to do since I first started this radio show. I recorded this episode outside. And what better time of the year than on the very first day of Autumn? As a result, you may notice that the talk breaks sound just a bit different, but the overall effect of the wind, the night and the chill in the air was great.

The main part of the show begins with a themed group of songs to welcome the onset of Autumn, as it is the most wonderful time of the year (regardless of how that one song goes). My next goal will be to record a show while outside in a snowstorm...

This Sunday night in Nashville, Bella Morte, The Ludovico Technique, and Cryogen Second will be playing at The Rutledge. In honor of this, all three bands are featured in a special set, which includes a brand new track from Bella Morte's latest album, Before the Flood. For those who aren't in Nashville (and that's plenty of you), the rest of their tour dates can be seen here. Go see them and tell them I sent you.

In that same set you'll hear brand new music from Ladytron. They will be the subject of a Bonus CD Release party at the Bella Morte show. We'll have posters and copies of their brand new CD Gravity the Seducer to give away that night. And if you need one more reason to attend, I'll be the live DJ before, between, and after the bands. Maybe I will see you there?

Also new to the show this week: Music from German/Norwegian hybrid, Thornfields, a collaboration between Ghostfog and Liquid Grey, whose newly released album is entitled The Desert. We also delve a bit deeper into the latest releases from Diary of Dreams and God Module.

On the heavier end of the spectrum, you'll hear music from Thrall's latest CD, Vermin to the Earth, and a 16-minute opus from the new Rwake (pronounced "wake") album, Rest, which will soon be released on Relapse Records.

All of the above, plus: Classic goth, industrial, and deathrock, one of my favorite opening songs of all time, and a spotlight on next week's Nashville appearance of Opeth and Katatonia, at the Cannery on September 28th. Check out these dates to see if they'll be hitting your town.

Fall is in the air, which means many of us are just waking up from a summertime hibernation of sorts. This may explain why I came to the table with far more music picked out this week than I usually do, but it's not like that's a bad thing. It just means you'll get an extra set on this episode.

New to the show this week? The brand new Diary of Dreams album, "Ego:X," has now been released, and (as always) it does not disappoint. As usual, the new album is offered in several different varieties, including vinyl, for the collectors among us. Find those options here or here.

Also out this week: "Séance," the new full-length album from everyone's favorite Horror Industrial/Black Electro/Murder Wave band, God Module. For this episode, I chose a song that features recently added second vocalist, Clint Carney (System Syn, Imperative Reaction, Fake), who will be joining the band on their upcoming Triptych Tour, where he will be performing with all 3 acts! You can pick your version of "Séance" right here.

Joining God Module on the Trytpich Tour will be System Syn and Imperative Reaction, who also unleashed their latest album this week. The self-titled collection sees the band experimenting with their sound a bit, which is something I very much appreciate in the current industrial scene. A fresh approach or two is not only welcome, but needed. As you may have guessed, there are several ways to get their latest album as well, some of them limited. Find them all here.

Finally, in the dark metal section, Washington's Wolves in the Throne Room have just released "Celestial Lineage," through Southern Lord Records. The band will be on tour this month, even hitting Nashville this coming Wednesday, the 21st, at Little Hamilton. Details on that all-ages show can be found here.

Also on the show this week: A nod to this Saturday's SWANS show in Nashville, a bit of a dreamy opening set, a sweeping deathrock/gothpunk set, a trip through the weirdness of Transylvania on the way out, and (of corpse) much more.

It's hard to believe it's been two weeks since the last episode, but that's the type of time-warping one should expect from almost a week spent at Dragon*Con. Not only did I survive the Con, but I have returned with an armload of new music and some cool stories to share. So, here's what this show has to offer:

On the topic of D*C-related acts, you'll hear a variation on the new single from The Cruxshadows on this show, which is entitled "Valkyrie." It was, as the tradition now holds, released at Dragon*Con this year, complete with two other new tracks and a couple of different versions. From what I understand, it will be available for purchase (to the rest of the world) soon...

You'll also hear new music from Sapphire Solace, the new project featuring Rick Joyce of The Last Dance and vocalist Velvet Shadow, who did a last minute live performance at Dragon*Con this year on the concourse stage, playing selections from their new album "Shadow Stories."

Also appearing on panels at the Con this year, although not performing live, were the members of Brighter Fires, the band formed by (founding Bella Morte members) Andy Deane and Gopal Metro. Their song, "Glorious," was included on the "Out ov the Coffin" sampler CD that was handed out at the Con this year, and you'll also hear its broadcast premiere on this episode. As mentioned in the show, you can pre-order their new album for only $2.99 right here, prior to its Halloween release date.

Speaking of Bella Morte, you'll hear a great new track from The Gothsicles, whose new album "Industrialites & Magic" actually features a song that's all about wearing a Star Trek uniform while watching (Bella Morte's infamous guitarist) Tony Lechmanski sleep. AS ONE DOES, you know? Don't even try to tell me you haven't tried it.

Also new to the show this week: Fresh darkwave/industrial from Germany's Deied, whose new album is called "Tales from the Sodenliah," an advance cut from the new Ladytron album, "Gravity the Seducer," and some nice minimal ambience from the UK's Ainm, whose album "Zero Spring" has just been released.

Rounding out the show in the heavier department, you'll hear new material from France's Glorior Belli, who recently signed with Metal Blade Records. Finally, I am able to confirm the great news I mentioned last night: California death/doom act, Morgion, has, in fact, reformed (with the "Solinari" line-up) in order to play the next Maryland Deathfest. Read all about it here.
