Adam Campbell-Train (guitars) and Benio Baumgart (bass) from British atmospheric sludge band Dimscûa join Spinning the Wax to listen to an album that showed them what instrumental post-rock could be: Caspian's Dust and Disquiet.
They share the whirlwind journey of releasing their debut album Dust Eater with zero expectations, only to find themselves playing a festival to thousands of people months later.
Adam and Benio dive into why Caspian's music is so captivating, and how it inspired a big part of Dimscûa's live sound.

#30 - Dimitra Kalavrezou (UNVERKALT) listens to Björk's "Homogenic"
Dimitra Kalavrezou, vocalist of Berlin-based avant-garde/post-metal band Unverkalt, joins Spinning the Wax to share her favorite album from her favorite aritst: Björk's "Homogenic".
We chat about how this album still sounds like it's from the future, and how Björk's artistry has inspired Dimitra with her own willingness to experiment and explore. There's industrial metal in this album and we learn it can be perfectly looped for an even more intense experience.
Dimitra also previews Unverkalt's third album, Héréditaire, and how it's their darkest one yet.
Song Excerpts: #1: Oath ov Prometheus | #2: Die Auslöschung
