    GROZA + NECROSHORNS @ FORTRESS 2026 | 2 Interviews + WEEKLY NEWS RANT w/ THE SHERIFF | ITN EP328

    Huge double episode this week as I wrap up my coverage of Fortress Festival 2026. First up, I’m sitting down with P.G. from Groza to discuss their latest record, Nadir, how they evolved from a solo project into a band-led effort, dealing with the inevitable comparisons to Mgła and much more.  Then, my friend and world-renowned photographer Necroshorns is back. He shares his perspective on the changing face of metal festivals, the commercial realities of these events and the growing prominence of photographers as an integral part of the festival experience. He also reflects on the late, great Bartholomäus Resch and the legacy of the House of the Holy festival. If that’s not enough for you, The Sheriff - Mike Scondotto - is back on the Weekly News Rant! We answer your questions, including our favourite intro riffs, the best death metal album of all time and more. We also round up the latest singles from Archgoat, Prong, Xentrix and Sorcery for judgment.  And the torch-and-pitchfork brigade are out for Jorge Rosado’s blood, so they get their due reckoning on the Swirly Of The Week. PLUS - New Jersey extremists Filthy Ilk step into the “Unsanctioned Filth” spotlight.   Featured Bands Groza: https://groza-blackmetal.bandcamp.com/   Filthy Ilk: https://filthyilk.bandcamp.com/    Follow Necroshorns on https://www.instagram.com/necroshorns/  Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    ABIGAIL WILLIAMS @ FORTRESS 2026: Ken Sorceron On Band’s Early Days, The Making Of “A Void Within Existence”| ITN EP327

    This week, I’m back at Fortress Festival 2026 for a face-to-face interview with Ken Sorceron of Abigail Williams. We dive into the early days of the band, as Ken shares stories from their first-ever tour, supporting none other than the legendary Emperor. We also talk about Abigail Williams’ evolution alongside the development of the US black metal scene, and Ken shares the story behind the making of the band’s most recent album, A Void Within Existence. On the Weekly News Rant, I’m answering YOUR questions, including which non-metal guests I’d love to have on the show, which revered bands I just can’t get into, and which musicians I’ve interviewed whose music I ended up liking more - but the person less. Plus, plenty more! I also round up the latest singles by Silvertomb, Sigh, Krallice, Kanonenfieber and Critical Defiance for judgment. PLUS — Illinois blackened death metallers Solt serve up a man-sized helping of “Unsanctioned Filth”.   Featured Bands Abigail Williams: https://abigailwilliams.bandcamp.com/ Solt: https://solt666.bandcamp.com/  Hammerfilosofi: https://hammerfilosofi.bandcamp.com/     Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    VINTERLAND: Their First Ever Podcast Interview & the Story Behind Welcome My Last Chapter | ITN EP326

    This week, I'm honoured to welcome all three founding members of Sweden's legendary Vinterland - Andreas Jonsson, Pehr Skjoldhammer and D.F. Bragman - to Into The Necrosphere. Not only is this their first appearance on the show, but it also marks the first long-form podcast interview any of the three founding members have ever given together, making this a genuinely historic conversation for fans of one of black metal's most revered cult bands. We explore the story behind “Welcome My Last Chapter” - from its enduring legacy and why it continues to resonate decades later, to the band's long absence, their return to the stage, the evolution of their songwriting, and why Vinterland has always followed its own path rather than the expectations of the black metal scene. We also revisit the chaotic journey that nearly prevented the band from making it to Fortress Festival, reflect on what it means to create timeless music, and discuss what the future holds for Vinterland after one of metal's most unlikely and celebrated comebacks. On the Weekly News Rant, Karl Haikara returns to the show to round up the latest releases from Terrestrial Hospice, Taake, Forbidden, Rapid and others for judgement. We discuss the recently announced formation of Towards The Sinister, list the metal subgenres we simply can't get into, pay tribute to the late, great Lou Koller from Sick of it All and on the Swirly of the Week we take aim at black metal fans afraid of buying a T-shirt without first checking whether it's socially acceptable. PLUS - two exclusive Premieres On The Sphere, courtesy of Theosophy and Conspiracy X    Featured Bands Vinterland: https://vinterland.bandcamp.com/ Theosophy: https://theosophygroup.bandcamp.com  Conspiracy-X: https://conspiracyx.bandcamp.com/  Sick of it All: https://sickofitall.com/    Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    PSYCROPTIC: Jason Peppiatt On Modern Death Metal, Joining Psycroptic & The Making Of The Pulse of Annihilation | ITN EP325

    This week on Into The Necrosphere, I'm joined by Psycroptic frontman Jason Peppiatt to discuss the band's crushing new album, The Pulse of Annihilation, and the remarkable journey that brought him to one of extreme metal's most respected acts. Jason reflects on his early days as a fan of the band, how the opportunity to join Psycroptic came about, and what it was like stepping into the shoes of a long-established vocalist before helping ushering in the band's next chapter. From there, we dive into why so much modern metal has lost its humanity, the unintended consequences of click tracks and digital recording, and why the best extreme metal still needs a little danger and imperfection. We also reminisce about discovering death metal through the legendary Nuclear Blast 'Death Is Just The Beginning' series, the surreal experience of eventually sharing stages - and beers - with heroes like Cannibal Corpse, memorable touring stories, and what it takes for a band to remain relevant more than two decades into their career. Then, Nathan Glover of Graveir joins me for another instalment of the Weekly News Rant as we round up the latest singles from Veilburner, Firtan, Februus, Hesperia, End of Green and more for judgment. A demented campaign against a local metal institution earns the Swirly of the Week, while Ohio blackened death industrialists Preliminus bask in the glory of the Unsanctioned Filth spotlight.    Featured Bands Psycroptic: https://psycroptic.bandcamp.com/ Preliminus: https://preliminus.bandcamp.com/music Metallica: https://www.metallica.com/   Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    PRIMORDIAL: Alan Averill Discusses AI, The Death Of Empires, Legacy & Metal’s Future | ITN EP324

    This week on Into The Necrosphere, Alan Averill of Primordial returns to the podcast for one of our most thought-provoking conversations to date. We discuss what it means to become a legacy band, why Primordial's lyrics seem more relevant today than they did thirty years ago, the rise of AI and its impact on creativity, and whether heavy metal is still capable of producing artists with genuine authenticity and staying power. We also explore the changing nature of the music industry, the pressures of growing older in extreme metal, why so much modern art feels increasingly disposable, and Alan shares his thoughts on the state of the scene as only he can. On the Weekly News Rant, I check out the latest singles by Hulder, From The Vastland, Terrestrial Hospice, Mordant Rhed, Left To Die and others, debate which modern black metal bands have what it takes to replace the likes of Mayhem, Emperor and Satyricon as genuine festival headliners, countdown my favourite Motörhead songs and, of course, dunk another deserving recipient on my Swirly of the Week.  Plus: Epikoros deliver a fire-and-brimstone debut with “Black Sun Eclipse” and take a thoroughly deserved bow in the Unsanctioned Filth spotlight.   Featured Bands Primordial: https://primordialofficial.bandcamp.com/  Dread Sovereign: https://dreadsovereign.bandcamp.com/  Epikoros: https://epikoros.bandcamp.com/   Razor: https://razorband.bandcamp.com/    Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    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.   Featured Bands Firespawn: https://www.facebook.com/firespawnofficial    Permafog: https://permafog.bandcamp.com/    Broken Hope: https://www.facebook.com/brokenhopeofficial    Marduk: https://marduk.nu/    Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

    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.
