Clean-Gesang ist ein schwieriges Thema! w/Jakob, Janick, Nadja (CORPSEPAINT COBRA)

The ink – and the tears! – have barely dried on the records of our EARBVM-of-the-year episode, and yet we’re already back in the saddle with a fresh one. Tune in, as we are joined by not one, not two, but three (!!!) guests (and a new-ish team member) for the first series of 2025 reviews, and our most ambitious recording session yet. Needless to say, some things went wrong with the audio, not least because the grand master of audio wizardry for the first time in recorded podcast history trusted his callow apprentice with post-production sorcery, and well, what can I say ... “Spirits that I’ve cited, my commands ignore” ... But be that as it may, we trust in your patience as well as your reflexes when it comes to adjusting the volume on your audio device, and, in turn, are confident that we have nevertheless prepared a tremendously exciting episode for you!

For this episode, three slithering serpents in black and white have come out of the woodwork to join our sacrilegious sssnakepit: the extremely committed, fantastically knowledgeable, monumentally monochrome, and wonderfully witty Jakob, Janick, and Nadja from Saarland’s trvest den of underground anguine facilitators: Corpsepaint Cobra!

After some conversation with our ophidian guests, we discuss another eclectic selection of heavy music, including the recent releases by Heisskalt – Vom Tun und Lassen (00:25:46), Jinjer – Duél (00:42:45), Crush Your Soul – Living Gracious (00:54:08), Zero Absolu – La Saignée (01:06:27), and Eidola – Mend (01:24:45). As introduced in our previous episode, the amended “lost & found” section of the show comes with another category! This episode, we put on our politeness-hats, douse ourselves in maple sirup, and embark on a quest to find the best albums by Canadian bands, the contenders of which are Kataklysm – Serenity in Fire (01:43:19), Into Eternity – The Scattering of Ashes (01:52:46), Cancer Bats – Hail Destroyer (02:02:25), Tomb Mold – Manor of Infinite Forms (02:10:35), and Red Handed Denial – Redeemer (02:21:01).
