    Lindsay Schoolcraft’s HEAVIEST Record! Moldovan Prog-Death Metal, Cheese, Assault, Speed, and MORE | MRP #073

    The Metal Robot Podcast (2026-06-22) On this ferris wheel of an episode, Tom dives into three brand-new releases: Sweden’s Shadowborne with their fantasy-powered debut “Heaven’s Falling,” Montreal’s progressive death metal machine Conflux Collective with “In the Wake of Saturn,” and Belgium’s speed-heavy Vikings Drakkar with “Invasion.”  Then it’s time for Metal Archives Roulette! The wheel lands us in Moldova, where Tom discovers progressive death metal band Neuromist and digs through their catalogue to find out if this hidden gem deserves more attention. Finally, Tom sits down with Lindsay Schoolcraft to talk about her brand-new album “Harrowing,” the most emotionally vulnerable record of her career, the new heavy direction for her music, and maybe something about hummus.

    IN VIRTUE: Age of Legends, Concept Albums Without the Homework, and Rolling the Damn Boulder | MRP #068

    The Metal Robot Podcast (2026-01-12) Tonight we sit down with progressive power metal band In Virtue, fronted by fellow metal YouTuber Trey Xavier (who might sound familiar if you were watching his channel when it was Gear Gods). Their sound is described as power metal without the cheesy bits. So if you’re a little Gamma-ray intolerant, or get the runs after listening to Gloryhammer, then this is right up your alley. The band just dropped their long awaited third studio album “Age of Legends” November 21st. Trust me, it’s so worth the wait.
