Far Beyond Metal is a metal interview show that sets out to defy what it means to be metal by exploring the minds of the musicians, writers, and metal media staples behind the genre that is largely made up adults growling like monsters. Guests discuss their earliest musical origins, their careers, current projects, and more. The “more” frequently includes Prince for some reason.

Host Daniel Cordova has spent almost a decade being obnoxious in the Sacramento metal scene. He had a radio show with KSSU, currently writes for Metal Injection, and produces the FBM podcast independently.

This show is an homage to metal and the cheesy voices announcing it.

Delivers

It's Far BEYOND Metal because it's much more than JUST heavy metals. Ovacord is a not just a metal nerd but a huge music nerd in general, with experience in the radio and podcasting industries. He has talked to big ol celebs, but still remains the down-to-earth robot who had the best metal show at KSSU in Sacramento. If you like metal at all I just don't know why you're not already listening to this podcast instead of reading this review.

Loved this show at KSSU

Great show from KSSU and now in podcast form. Interviews, face melting metal and more. Worth the sub.
