Heavy Metal Philosophy Jon Barbas

On episode 171 of Heavy Metal Philosophy, we dive deep into the roots of modern metal and explore why it can't seem to shake off its past. David Burke (a PhD candidate in Metal Studies), joins us to discuss the philosophical underpinnings that continue to influence today's popular metal scene. From the metal history origins to its evolution over the decades, we examine how political context shapes the music and culture of metal today.

On episode 168 of Heavy Metal Philosophy, I peek out of my death metal bubble. This week there will be a new Bad Omens album released called Concrete Jungle (OST), and I figured it was the perfect time to take a first listen to their catalog. What I discovered blew me away. I was expecting something like Sleep Token or Bring Me the Horizon, but they've taken their brand of metalcore to a totally different place. Join me as I walk you through my analysis!
