In Capital are back with a new album called Friday's with Carol. If you like your rock music with a twist of off-beat funk and disco with lashings of groove you'll find a bunch on Friday's with Carol. So the album is the catalyst for our conversation but we also talk about a heap of other things such as Nick's nomad life on the road, playing in cover bands and much more.

What's better than not having a hangover on a Saturday morning? A chat with the one and only Gary Holt from Exodus and Slayer! The catalyst for the conversation is the launch of Exodus' new album, Persona Non Grata on 19th November 2021. Throughout the chat, Gary talks about the new album, his recollections of the final Slayer tour, career longevity in Exodus and a heap of other worthy subjects.

Gore fuelled death metallers Pathology return with their 11th studio album The Everlasting Plague via Nuclear Blast on 19th November 2021. In this conversation, Dan discusses the album, guitar playing, car accidents and what it was like to move to the continental USA from Alaska, amongst many other subjects. 

Daniel Richardson (Pathology)

Khemmis' new album is called Deceiver, and it is another wicked instalment in the saga that is the Khemmis catalogue. Deceiver is more of everything that the band is known for; it’s heavier, the drone passages hit harder, and the melodic introductions are a touch more sinister. Ben shares his thoughts on the album, giving up drinking and a heap of other worthy topics.

Ben Hutcherson (Khemmis)

Matt and Toby are the extraordinary bassists in Melbourne based The Omnific. Beating the lockdown blues by releasing a killer debut album is one way to get through living in the most locked-down city in the world, although Matt and Toby have done more than that; they've reimagined their bass-prog extravaganzas for a listening experience unlike almost any other. The lads discuss the recording, bass philosophy and much more! 

Matthew Fackrell and Toby Peterson-Stewart (The Omnific)

Josh (vocals) and Ian (guitar) are in Western Australia based extreme metal outfit Kimura. They have a killer new album out on October 21, 2021, called Circle The Prey. We battle internet connectivity issues to talk about the album, what's been happening in the band, and many other worthy topics! 

Josh Kelly & Ian McAllister (Kimura)

Sam and Alasdair are two-thirds of Nesher, a killer Australian metal 'supergroup'. Their debut single is called "Preservation of Privilege", and it's out now. Throughout this chat, they cover the reasons behind the band's formation, why they enjoy performing brutal metal and as you have (hopefully) come to expect from the show, a dive into topics relating to social issues.

Sam Dillon & Alasdair Belling (Nesher)

Black metallers Ghost Bath are proving the doubters wrong with their stunning new album, Self Loather which will be released on 19th November via Nuclear Blast. Frontman Dennis Mikula was available to share his thoughts in the album, Ghost Bath's comparisons to Deafheaven, and the time he trolled a Vice/ Noisey contributor who assumed the group were from Chongqing, China!

Brothers In Arms is the brainchild of guitarist/composer Jack Frost, who it must be said is one of the most underrated guitarists in rock and metal.
