In this episode, I’m on location at the historic Akershus fortress in Oslo, Norway, where I have the pleasure of a conversation with Archaon, the guitarist of 1349. We delve into his personal journey into black metal, the origins of the band, and get an exciting glimpse into their upcoming album. Later we’re also joined by my good friend Svartalv, of the band Nocturnal Breed, who shares his insights as the lyricist for 1349 and much more. PLUS:  the world premiere of the new single by Australian death metal marauders, Werewolves.  And on my weekly news rant, I share my initial thoughts and reactions to the newest releases by Akhlys, Bythos, Blaze of Perdition, In Aphelion, and many others.  ▶️SUPPORT THE BANDS FEATURED ON THIS EPISODE 1349  https://1349som.bandcamp.com/  Werewolves https://werewolvesdeathmetal.bandcamp.com/  Gorgoroth https://www.facebook.com/gorgorothofficial  ▶️SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST  https://youtube.com/c/IntoTheNecrosphere  ▶️STREAM & DOWNLOAD Amazon Music https://amzn.to/3epNJ4K Spotify https://spoti.fi/3iKqbIP Apple Podcasts https://apple.co/38wDYhi  ▶️SOCIAL MEDIA Facebook https://www.facebook.com/intothenecrosphere   Instagram https://www.instagram.com/intothenecrosphere     Twitter https://twitter.com/inecrosphere   ▶️INTO THE NECROSPHERE MERCH https://into-the-necrosphere.creator-spring.com ▶️THE HORSEMEN OF THE PODCASTING APOCALYPSE  Horrorwolf666 https://thehorrorwolf666podcast.buzzsprout.com/  Everything Went Black https://everythingwentblack.podbean.com/  Necromaniacs https://necromaniacs.podbean.com/  Sol Nox https://www.solnoxpodcast.podbean.com/  Iblis Manifestations https://linktr.ee/iblismanifestationspodcast
