In our eighth episode, we talk only a few things metal, some things food, but also many things music, of course. Once again, we are joined by a wonderful guest: the illustrious, the titillating, the mezmerizing, the one and only Malte from Deathcore powerhouse INHUMAN RAMPAGE as well as emerging Metalcore megatrons CYANT. After some convo with our globetrotting guest, we move on to discuss another eclectic selection of heavy (and not so heavy) music, including the recent releases by Darkest...

In our seventh episode, we return to our usual schedule and talk many things metal. Once again, we are joined by a wonderful guest, the very special Moe from Melodic Metalcore outfits WAY TO PARADISE and FAILED STAR. After some convo about our guest's musical endeavors past and present, including some red hot information on upcoming releases and shows, we move on to discuss another eclectic selection of heavy music. Spoilers, we all really tried to keep an open mind this time... did we...

This is a special one! In our sixth episode we look back at what a fantastic year 2023 has been for heavy music. Join us for the official, authoritative, comprehensive, argumentative, and not at all unapologetically nerdy EARBVDS Album-of-the-year-round-up of 2023, as we move swiftly as ever through 29 albums spread across 16 positions in reverse order, all in the monumentally challenging, agonizing, bittersweet endeavor to discern the undisputed Earbvm of the Year 2023. No guest in this...

In our fifth episode, we talk many things metal, as usual. And even though Thomas couldn’t care to join us this time (kidding, he had good reasons and he’s still our bvd), we have another guest joining our nerdy outfit: the one and only Nicolas from groovy death metal steamrollers INHERIT THE ASHES. Mandatory prescription: You should absolutely check them out, especially their latest single, In The Realms Of Fire! After some conversation about our guest's past, present, and future...

In our fourth episode, we talk many things metal, as usual. Except this time, we have a guest joining our nerdy outfit: the very special Lars from Saarland-local prog-metalcore outfit UNDER FALSE COLORS. Sidebar: You should absolutely check them out, especially their latest single, Wake up! After some conversation on our guest's past, present, and future endeavors, we move on to (fiercely!) debate about an eclectic selection of fairly recent and some not so recent releases, including...

Ladies and Djentelmen! In our third episode, we again talk about many things metal. And music. Is there a difference? Let's see. Come along for a wild (and long) ride, with stops at (Hipster-)Black Metal Boulevard, Sound Sausage Street, Apocalyptic Deathcore Avenue, Metalcore Mainstation, Space Grunge Garage, and even Popmetal Plaza. Inevitably though, we end with a whimsical trip down Memory Lane. After a rapid fire round, where we give shout-outs to all the superb releases that weren't...

In our second episode, we again talk about many things metal. Come along for our favorite concert anecdotes, ranging from seriously cheesy to very spicy indeed.
