FIRESPAWN: Alex Impaler on LG Petrov, Tattooing & the Stockholm Death Metal Legacy | ITN EP323
This week on Into The Necrosphere, Alex "Impaler" Friberg joins me for a wide-ranging conversation covering his journey from discovering extreme metal to founding Firespawn and, ultimately, sharing the stage with one of death metal's most iconic frontmen, the late, great LG Petrov. We also dive into Alex's life beyond music, including his transition into professional tattooing, the story of inking the woman who would later become his wife, the enduring legacy of the Stockholm death metal scene, and why so many modern bands are still chasing the classic Sunlight Studio sound. On the Weekly News Rant, I round up the latest singles from Fimbul Winter, Runemagick, Moonspell, Dysgnostic, Avulsed, Rapid, Viande and more. I also answer more of your questions, including my favourite doom metal releases of the 21st century, my thoughts on the recently announced Fortress Festival and Maryland Deathfest line-ups, and I reflect on last week's tragic news surrounding Shaun Glass and B. War. PLUS: Australia's best-kept black metal secret, Permafog, return with what may well be the EP of the year in Kings of Men.

Dogma Is So Unlistenable I'd Rather Run Into a Wall Repeatedly Than Ever Hear It Again
On this week’s news rant, The Reverend Karl Hikara joins me to round up new singles by Castle, Psycroptic, Abyssal Rift, Fuming Mouth, Green Carnation, Abyssal Rift, Heretic Cult Redeemer and more for judgement. We also get our first horrifying taste of rent-a-slattern metallers Dogma, put simp culture in heavy metal on blast, and reward made-up complaints about the YouTube algorithm with the Swirly of the Week.

Bloodstock's Future, Metal's Headliner Crisis & Why Adam Gregory Hates AI Bands | ITN EP322
This week on Into The Necrosphere, I'm joined by Adam Gregory, Festival Director of Bloodstock Open Air, for an in-depth conversation about the past, present and future of the UK's biggest independent metal festival. We discuss the challenge of finding the next generation of festival headliners, Bloodstock's remarkable growth, booking philosophy, the changing landscape of heavy music, and why Adam believes AI-generated bands have no place in metal. We also dive into fan expectations, social media criticism, the realities of running a major festival, and what it takes to keep Bloodstock thriving in an increasingly competitive market. Then it's time for another edition of The Weekly News Rant, with the Reverend Karl Hikara returning to the co-host's chair. This week we round up the latest singles from Psycroptic, Fuming Mouth, Green Carnation, Abyssal Rift, Heretic Cult Redeemer and more for judgement, get our first horrifying taste of rent-a-slattern metallers Dogma, put simp culture in heavy metal firmly on blast, and reward made-up complaints about the YouTube algorithm with the Swirly of the Week. PLUS: Northumberland black metallers Unto Thee joins the pantheon of legends featured on the Unsanctioned Filth segment of the podcast, with their latest track, “We Were Fire.” Featured Bands Trivax: https://trivax.bandcamp.com/ Unto Thee: https://untothee.bandcamp.com/ W.A.S.P.: https://www.waspnation.com/ Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.
