#229 | Reviews and Other Rambles: Be'lakor, Scowl, Plebeian Grandstand, Archspire, and More From Corners Unknown

    • Music Commentary

Salutations, cavern revelers. Happy 2022! It’s the fourth iteration of our new podcast format, wherein Connor and I endeavor to cover a deluge of new(-ish) singles, EPs, albums, and other developments from the underbelly of extreme music. The vast majority of what we yammer on about can be found in the list down below, but you can expect a few easter egg morsels to be discovered only within the audio (Connor littered this one with quite a bit of “mainstream” detritus).

As is typical, we span an array of various genres, from biting hardcore punk and sweeping, melodic death metal to blistering tech-death and harrowing avant-garde black metal. There is much more discussed in the episode’s approximate two-hour runtime, but we’ll leave all of those tidbits for you to discover.

If you have some artists, albums, singles, or any other form of musical media you’d like us to consider for an upcoming episode, please feel free to send us an email or reach out at one of our various social media channels. In a couple of weeks’ time, there will a new podcast interview I conducted with Uttered in Tongues, where he discusses the intersection of harsh drones and mental health. After that, our “Reviews and Other Rambles” series will continue to trudge ahead. Thank you all so much for your continued support!

Bands/artists discussed in this episode include Blut Aus Nord, Voidsphere, Jordan Guerette (Falls of Rauros), Blood Incantation, Chained to the Bottom of the Ocean, Heavy Meta, Moon Tooth, Willzyx, LETTERBOMBs, PORTRËIT, I Shot the Duck Hunt Dog, Airlock, Elephant Rifle, Dead and Dripping, Be'lakor, Scowl, Plebeian Grandstand, Archspire, and others.
