Ep112. 2025 Mid-Year Releases Review With Connor (Part 3)
In the grand finale of my three-part series with Connor (a.k.a. Riperoo6565), we examine recent releases from Seven Sisters, Angel Fury, and Tyrann. But, in this episode, the music sparks plenty of side-quests: like why nothing beats the energy of a metal gig in a tiny sweatbox venue, the idea that heavy metal “ended” in 1989 for some fans, and how our love for the genre can bend time itself. Connor’s been an incredible guest throughout this series, and I have a feeling this won’t be the last time you’ll hear his voice on Feckin' Metal. Clips featured in episode: 1. Seven Sisters - "Astral Prophecies" - Shadow Of A Fallen Star Pt.2 (2025) 2. Seven Sisters - "Heart Of The Sun" - Shadow Of A Fallen Star Pt.2 (2025) 3.
