    Ralph Schmidt Breaks Down Ultha’s "A Light So Dim" (Track-by-Track) | ITN EP312

    On April 2nd, 2026, Ultha dropped the surprise follow-up to their critically acclaimed album All That Has Never Been True with no warning, press or prior buildup.   Ahead of its release, I sat down with my good friend Ralph Schmidt, guitarist for Ultha, to dissect the new record, A Light So Dim. Ralph takes us track-by-track through the album, unpacking the personal experiences behind it, the evolution within the band, and how those shifts shaped its final sound.   On the Weekly News Rant: I’m answering your questions on hi-fi, grilling the perfect steak, and TV shows, while rounding up the latest tracks by Trelldom, Defiled, Aversio Humanitatis, Mork, Shane Embury and others for judgement.    PLUS: Horsemen of the Podcast Apocalypse capos Mike Hill and Karl Hikara join forces with the mighty Drugoth for Hollow Lands in this week’s Unsanctioned Filth spotlight, and a feeble attempt at trolling backfires spectacularly, earning its author a well-deserved Swirly of the Week.   Featured Bands: Ultha - https://ultha.bandcamp.com/    Hollow Lands - https://ordotenebris.bandcamp.com/    Harms Way - https://harmswayband.bandcamp.com/    Support Nick Barker: https://www.gofundme.com/f/nicholas-barker    Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    Hellripper’s James McBain on Songwriting, Live Transformation & His DIY Approach | ITN EP310

    Hellripper mastermind, James McBain, joins me on the show this week to chart the band’s evolution from a one-man black/speed metal assault to one of the most electrifying forces in the underground. We get into his songwriting process, the evolution of the Hellripper sound, and how he overcame performance anxiety to emerge as one of metal’s most commanding frontmen. On the Weekly News Rant, I react to two huge surprises from the past weekend: a new Darkthrone record and the long-awaited return of Neurosis. I also share first impressions of new material from Ashen Horde, High Parasite, and Samael, plus my take on the divisive new Exodus album—and plenty more.

    Chris Naughton and Simon Lucas of UK black metal stalwarts Winterfylleth join me to break down the inspiration and themes behind their excellent new album, The Unyielding Season. We also talk about the band’s decision to sign with Napalm Records, their take on how the music industry is evolving, and take a nostalgic detour into the halcyon days of British comedy. On the Weekly News Rant: new singles from Melechesh, Corrosion of Conformity, Skaphos, Sisyphean, Immolation, Transilvania and Six Feet Under get rounded up for judgment. PLUS: my six favourite 80s action movies, the fallen legends I’d most like to have shared a drink with, the definitive ruling on whether gas BBQ counts as real BBQ, and more of your burning questions answered. On this week’s Unsanctioned Filth, I celebrate the launch of new label Serpent Sun Records and spotlight one of their standout signings: Mexico’s Hierophany. And finally, both Ticketmaster and Metallica are frogmarched—kicking and screaming—towards their first, and long overdue, appearance on the Swirly of the Week.   Featured Bands: Winterfylleth - https://winterfylleth.bandcamp.com/  Hierophany - https://hierophanytemple.bandcamp.com/  Transilvania - https://transilvania.bandcamp.com/    Support Nick Barker: https://www.gofundme.com/f/nicholas-barker    Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    Christian Larson (Necrofier) On Transcending Into Oblivion, Hell’s Heroes & the Real Cost of the Road | ITN EP308

    Christian Larson from US black metal legion Necrofier joins the podcast this week to discuss the band’s sensational new album, Transcend Into Oblivion. We dig into Necrofier’s decision to sign with Metal Blade Records, talk about the changing realities of the modern music industry, and Christian breaks down the real cost of touring the United States. We also go deep on his festival Hell’s Heroes, which returns this year for its eighth edition. On the weekly news rant, I round up the latest singles from Deathstorm, Archspire, Warsenal, Yoth Iria, and Trelldom for judgment. I also answer more of your questions, including ranking my favourite Marduk albums and revealing some of the cover songs I’d love to see metal bands take on. There’s also a Premiere on the Sphere, as Australian black metallers Graveir unveil the first taste of their upcoming album, The Festering Triad. And finally, labelling bands as “sketch” based on hearsay and internet rumour earns one member of the online red guard a double dunk in the Swirly of the Week.   Featured Bands: Necrofier- https://necrofier.bandcamp.com/  Graveir - https://graveircult.bandcamp.com/  Coscradh - https://coscradh.bandcamp.com/    Support Nick Barker: https://www.gofundme.com/f/nicholas-barker    Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    The Magus Speaks: Daemonosophia, Baron Blood & The Hellenic Black Metal Doctrine | ITN EP307

    This week on Into The Necrosphere, Hellenic black metal legend The Magus joins me to discuss his new album Daemonosophia and his pivotal role in shaping the Greek black metal movement as a founding force behind Necromantia. We revisit the roots of the Hellenic scene, his creative brotherhood with Baron Blood, the occult philosophy driving his work, his devotion to medieval fencing, and his unfiltered perspective on modern society and the state of the underground.   In Unsanctioned Filth, one-man black metal entity Death Ritual earns his stripes among the unsigned elite, while Matt Priso (SIK, Spells Ov Torment, Conspiracy X) joins the Weekly News Rant to pass judgement on new releases from Aversio Humanitatis, Sepultura, Monstrosity, Cruel Force and more. We answer questions from the Legion — and award a fully merited Swirly of the Week to those who think a 35-year-old horror film should come with a sensitivity warning.    Featured Bands: The Magus - https://themagusthecirclemusicfamily.bandcamp.com/  Death Ritual - https://deathritualrecords.bandcamp.com/  Aversio Humanitatis - https://aversiohumanitatis.bandcamp.com/     Support Nick Barker: https://www.gofundme.com/f/nicholas-barker   Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

I break down the latest developments surrounding the Nevermore reunion, talk about my favourite lyricists in metal, and deliver what may be my most scathing Swirly yet.   Featured Bands: Cnoc An Tarsa - https://apocalypticwitchcraft.bandcamp.com  Rotting Christ - https://rottingchrist.bandcamp.com/music  Nevermore - https://nevermoreofficial.com    PLUS: Cnoc An Tursa return with their first album in eight years — and debut a new track pm this week’s Premiere On The Sphere.   Support Nick Barker: https://www.gofundme.com/f/nicholas-barker   Thumbnail Credit: The Savage Of Savages, NECROSHORNS   Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.
