"If you just think for one second, it's already late"There is music that moves you and there is music that petrifies you, glues you to the floor, grounds you with roots so deep you are tree and mountain all at once. This is Bank Myna, dark doom / post rock from Paris, doing what art knows best how to: inspire awe and fear and reverence all while setting your body alight.In this conversation, we cover their beginnings as a band and how they found their current sound, how each member adds to the many textures of their latest album Eimuria and what they think of while playing their sprawling meditations live.Bank Myna are on tour this autumn with Deûle, catch them around Europe!

An in-depth conversation with Mirai Kawashima of Sigh about *Goh-Ka*, the band’s most cinematic album yet. Mirai reflects on Buddhism, mortality, musical experimentation, classic Sigh records and more than 35 years of progressive black metal.

Entrevistar os Moonspell é sempre um marco, contudo, fazê-lo no estúdio deles é algo singular e que nunca vamos esquecer. Nesta conversa com Fernando Ribeiro, explorámos temas como o promissor álbum “Far From God”, literatura, próximos projetos e até mesmo novidades exclusivas de celebrações que podem estar para breve.

"When I was 21, I had nothing to say. Now I'm bit older, I've had some knocks, I've seen some life, I know people and what they're like (and I mean that in a beautiful way) I've got more to say now than I did then. Anything I would have made back then would not have been as impactful or as real." Okay You Win are staples of the heavy London scene. In just over three years, they've landed themselves a record deal with Blues Funeral, a UK tour with Nashville giants Howling Giant and are now ready for the release of their debut album, End of Days, out on June 26th. We sat down for a conversation about their journey to this pivotal moment in their careers on a Friday, the day before another important debut for the band: a prime slot at the Black Heart during Camden's favourite stoner rock festival, Desertfest.

"You're a young kid, you have these big dreams and you do everything you can to make them a reality and after 10 years of grinding and grinding, you get that tiny taste of success, then you ask yourself, "Oh shit, maybe I should have thought about whether or not this is really what I want for my life." Vulnerability in metal may sound like an oxymoron, but under the guise of distortion and noise, the most fragile parts of ourselves can more safely show themselves. In this interview with metalcore band Archers, we dive into their latest singles ('The Dirt' and 'Say So'), a body of work they've curated piece by piece for over 10 years, and a strong fanbase spanning continents. Check out Archers on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/archersus/ and catch them live next time they play a show near you!

The German band Seven Blood have had the sort of rise one can only describe as meteoric. Last year, our collaborator Nat interviewed them as they were just beginning to tour and were still exploring what playing live felt for them as a band. Their debut album was on the horizon, but not yet finished. Now it's here. Life Is Just A Phase came out on November 21st 2025, just a few weeks after we had this interview. Here we go through the stories of the singles, how the band have found their groove live and the people who come to see and sing along to their music. The band is just off of tour in the UK and have already announced a few festival dates later this summer, hear all about it over on their website: https://www.sevenblood.com and their Instagram @wearesevenblood

"We were evolving as musicians and we started to be more and more thoughtful about our music. Our approach is that the music itself tells a story. Even without vocals, it is self-sufficient. There is a plot, a musical plot in every composition, so we just create the vibe, the atmosphere through music. And then Tatiana listens and writes the story." Jinjer's latest studio album Duél takes inspiration from 19th century aristocratic France to deliver a punch to the gut and a call to introspection. Despite their signature approach to progressive deathcore, there is much about the album that invited self-reflection. Join Eugene Abdukhanov, bass player in Jinjer, and Ruxandra Mîndru of MJB as they delve into the themes and writing process of Duél, as well as the packed world tour both behind and ahead of the Ukrainian band.

"It was about being too brutal with the problems that we have. We know we have problems, but do we really have to come at it so hard? And does it have to be all or nothing? Because a lot of people end up quite scared by that." Taking listeners on a cosmic journey, jam masters Pearl Handled Revolver headlined The Camden Club on the last day of summer. In this interview, we discuss their lockdown-influenced album "Tales We Lose", how the world has changed and how a 27-year-old storm made its debut on the final track.

With a recently released album 'In Devastation' out in 8th of August, we had a chat with Frederik from the band Sinsaneum with members of Dååth, Dragonforce, Mayhem and more, with metal icon Joey Jordison serving as the band's drummer before his untimely passing in 2021.

Born of Osiris drummer Cameron shares highlights from their recent two-month run across Europe and Canada, from unforgettable first shows in Serbia, Halifax, and Victoria to sold-out nights across the country. He talks about the meaning behind the band’s name, the inspiration and message of resilience behind their latest album Through Shadows, and how the band’s sound has evolved from basement demos to collaborative songwriting. With a US headline tour ahead, a European return in the works, and even a new album already in progress, Cameron’s energy is as relentless as the music — plus, he teases his solo instrumental project Unsolicited for fans craving more.
