That’s Heavy Ep. 15.5 - John McEntee of INCANTATION (Interview Only)

INCANTATION have been making the most vile and straight up filthy music for over three decades now. I was honored to have guitarist and vocalist John McEntee on to tell me all about the band’s inception, their latest record, “Sect of Vile Divinities,” what’s next for them as a band, and their lasting influence in the world of death metal. Watch their disgustingly good music video for ‘Entrails of the Hag Queen’ here: https://youtu.be/PjDElBhjA7c --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app [https://anchor.fm/app]--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thatsheavy/message

That’s Heavy Ep. 14.5 - Jesse Mathewson of KEN MODE

KEN MODE has been one of the heaviest Canadian bands around for almost two decades and today I had the pleasure of speaking with vocalist, guitarist, and half of the brother duo that started it all, Jesse Mathewson. We get into how tough touring in Canada can be, what to expect in your late thirties and how much it hurts, their “Venerable” album turning 10 years old, and more!

That’s Heavy Ep. 13.5 - Justin & Joel of USNEA

I got a sickness. The only ailment... is more doom metal. On this episode, Joel Williams and Justin Cory of Portland’s Blackened Funeral Doom band, USNEA, tell me about how Greek mythology and dystopian authors inspired some of their lyrics, building atmosphere and mood in music, and we nerd out on Magic: The Gathering and even brainstorm which card they may be! While doom metal may not always be the most uplifting genre, you may be surprised just how pleasant and happy these particular guys who make it are. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app [https://anchor.fm/app]--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thatsheavy/message

That’s Heavy Ep. 12.5 - Cameron “Big Chocolate” Argon of DISFIGURING THE GODDESS (Interview Only)

(Full episode with music on Spotify!) Cameron “Big Chocolate” Argon is responsible for my favorite slam metal project, DISFIGURING THE GODDESS. We recently had a fantastic conversation discussing everything from what we love about living in Texas, giving yourself motivation to keep your dreams alive, finally getting to release some long lost material, his DJ work and how it compares to making metal, and being on the front lines of the movement - nay, the groovement - currently underway for his “slambient” style. This is a long one, friends, so kick back and just enjoy the ride. It is a mood. It’s a vibe. It’s me geeking the hell out with someone I had been a fan of for almost ten years and felt like I already knew. Shout out to Omar at @ortho.graphic for the sick new DTG art!

That’s Heavy Ep. 11.5 - Tyler Campbell of NOTT (Interview Only)

(Full episode with music available on Spotify!) NOTT started as a one man death/doom metal project but now has picked up additional members and is ready for more live shows and already working on new music! I talk with founder and lead songwriter, Tyler Campbell, about his introduction into the world of metal; his lyrical themes and inspirations, his approach to writing a whole album rather than individual songs...and also finger boards are still a thing (shout out @occultfingerboards). NOTT’s official Instagram is @nott.band and be sure to check out the official new drummer’s content @julia.geaman. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app [https://anchor.fm/app]--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thatsheavy/message
