Richard Christy interview - 26 Jan 10

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2010/02/07

The man. The myth. The legend. The breakdancer. Richard Christy has made a name for himself in so many ways, calling him a renaissance man isn't enough. While he may be a "radio" personality, actor, filmmaker, he will forever be annointed: Richard Christy - Drum God. Or just Evil Ned. He's proven himself on many albums, and continues to pound out quality Metal with Charred Walls Of The Damned. RC called in to BNM live to talk about Charred Walls, Metal, prank phone calls, Electric Boogaloo,

Ihsahn interview - 26 Jan 10

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2010/01/29

I have a very short list of people in music that I must speak with. Ihsahn is on that list. His music has impacted me immensely over the years, from the early days of Emperor, to Peccatum and other projects, to his Ihsahn albums. His third album After is a brilliant work that transcends boundaries, yet does not stray from the Ihsahn aesthetic. An absolute masterpiece. Ihsahn has outdone himself. We spoke for 45 minutes about After, his previous albums, songwriting, Emperor worship, and much

Týr interview - Heri & Kári 08 Jan 10

2010/01/26

"Heathen heart. Pagan pride. Faring far. Sword by Side." The opening lines from "Hold The Heathen Hammer High" on Týr's By The Light of the Northern Star album...the band's finest release thus far. According to Heri, wait until we here the next one! While BTLOTNS is Týr at their best, each album is better than the previous release. So what does the future hold for Týr? We can expect more of what we have come to love from the band...their brand of Progressive Viking Folk Metal. While a dvd

The Great Kat interview - 01 Dec 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/12/18

The Great Kat must be worshipped. Media outlets who proclaim The Great Kat to be in the top 50, top 10, top whatever, are wrong. The Great Kat is the best, the fastest, the greatest. She is Beethoven reincarnated. This is not open for debate. You either 'get' what this means, or you do not.

Thomas Watkiss interview - 24 Nov 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/12/02

It would be easy, almost cliche, to say that the best way to appreciate art is to immerse yourself in it. But when it comes to the music of Thomas Watkiss, that is precisely the path one must take to fully comprehend and thus appreciate the bleak terrestrial landscape that he unearths. When he explains the motivation, the driving force behind his music, it becomes clear that it is multi-sensory. And when the music is imbedded amongst Metal, it all flows seamlessly, and bleak doesn't begin

Alestorm interview - 03 Nov 09

3 Alestorm guys, 2 WSCA Metal guys, 1 tour bus, and 37 minutes of trout, cutlasses, shorts, blood, pizza, forums, Eurovision, concerts, and more. But there were no drunken rats, and Captain Morgan did not have his revenge on anyone. Ultimately this was quite tame; no one even walked the plank. Well, we did step off the tour bus onto a Massachusetts sidewalk, which is basically a concrete version of Davy Jones' Locker.Present for this discussion (hanging out basically) were Alestormers

Nile interview - Karl Sanders 05 Nov 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/11/18

I remember being excited back in '97 about getting Nile's first album Amongst The Catacombs Of Nephren-Ka even before it was released. I knew it would be a masterpiece. To this day, it's still my favorite Nile album. But the newest record, Those Whom The Gods Detest, is a current favorite. I was pleased to finally speak with Karl, having long admired Nile music and his Saurian albums. The songwriting was something I chose for us to focus on. That, and Karl's killer spear that doubles as a

Cage interview - Sean Peck 20 Oct 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/11/06

Two planets colliding. That is the sound of Cage, so says vocalist Sean Peck. I'm inclined to agree, and even moreso with their latest album Science Of Annihilation. You'd think the highlight of this discussion would be about Metal. While any discussion of Metal is horns-up, the real fun was Sean & I talking about comics. He's got me beat on the number of comics collected since the '80s, but I'm hoping he'll send me a few thousand of his. On what other radio stations could you hear two

Megadeth interview - Dave Mustaine 29 Sep 09

I could give you a brief history of Megadeth, praise the band's discography, or just tell you how awesome it was to have Dave Mustaine on Black Night Meditations. But I won't. You know the stories, you know the albums, you know the man. But hopefully after listening to our 28-minute conversation you will have been as enlightened and informed as I was.Email/Requests: blacknightmeditations@msn.com Playlists: http://wsca.radioactivity.fm/show.html?showoid=1242 BLACK NIGHT MEDITATIONS - A

WSCA 106.1 FM brought the North American Nightmare Tour featuring Enforcer & Cauldron to Portsmouth, NH on September 21st. I had both bands at the station before the show, and spoke with Enforcer vocalist Olof, and Cauldron's Ian and Jason. We chatted about the ups and downs of the tour and future touring and recording plans.If you have not heard Enforcer - Into The Night & Cauldron - Chained To The Nite, you must. Both albums are great! And both bands put on a killer show in

Jane Badler interview - 11 Sep 09

Another non-Metal interview not a part of BNM. Broaden your horizons. Expand your mind.Is Jane Badler a Metalhead? Has she been in a mosh pit? Has she ever spent the night in a graveyard? Inquiring Metalheads and Badlerheads want to know. For 27 minutes we discuss pageantry, snow days, college, Australian music, burlesque, cheesecake, tin-foil hats and steel-cage matches. Somehow we manage to work in Jane's album The Devil Has My Double as well as the next "dark, a bit gloomy...but more

Rusty Cooley interview - 19 May 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/05/28

Every once in awhile I discover a new instrumental guitar album that reaffirms my long-standing belief that "Shred" will never die. I missed out on Rusty Cooley's solo album several years ago, and I am glad that Lion Music recently reissued the album because it is easily one of the better guitar albums in years. Even his band Outworld released an impressive album. He's shredded with Derek Sherinian, and is forming a new band with Derek. Naturally, I had to speak with Rusty and learn more

A conversation with Primordial & Korpiklaani - 01 May 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/05/18

Be aware! The audio quality is bad at times. Myself, Alan Averill (Primordial) and Jarkko Aaltonen (Korpiklaani) sat down in a pub with loud people and loud music. This made the recording very difficult. But when you have the opportunity to talk Metal for an hour with two bands over beers (and pineapple juice), you go with that unique opportunity. When it was loud, we had to speak up and that is what creates the unfortunate static noise. This can't be fixed. But much of our conversation

Kreator interview - Mille Petrozza 10 Apr 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/05/01

This was a long time coming. I've been a Kreator fan for 20 years, so speaking with Mille was a highlight of my Metal life. As with Exodus, I purposefully did not go into our conversation with any planned questions. I just wanted to have a great talk about Kreator. I only had a few minutes to speak with Mille, but it felt like an hour-long conversation because my mind was so deep in Kreatorland. So much to talk about, so little time. But I'm glad we got to talk about the Renewal &

Exodus interview - Tom Hunting 10 Apr 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/05/01

To say that Exodus is legendary in Metal is an understatement. And to see them tour with Kreator is every Metalhead's dream. I was happy to speak with Tom, as he does not do too many interviews. I like how direct he was (after-show with the fans, thoughts on the other bands). He does seem to prefer the new material over the old, but I suppose he gets tired of the playing the same old songs all the time. But there is hope of getting some new songs in their setlist (Free For All!). And yes

Chris Poland interview - 21 Apr 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/04/22

Whether it's the amazing and diverse Return To Metalopolis album, the classic Megadeth albums, or his fusion project OHM, Chris Poland can be counted on to deliver amazing guitar work. But his songwriting should be highlighted as much as his fretboard skills. "The Fall Of Babylon" is but one great example of the songwriting prowess Chris possesses. While Metal may be in his past and Fusion is where he is at (and always has been), all of his music is heavy in so many ways. You have the

Derek Sherinian interview - 10 Mar 09

Black Night Meditations - Underground Metal Radio ·

2009/03/11

To say that Derek Sherinian is an accomplished musician is an understatement. His songwriting should outshine his collaborations. Whether it's his solo albums or Planet X, his music is "river, not quilt." He's able to seemingly without effort meld different styles of music into Prog Metal supremacy. His new album Molecular Heinosity is no exception, and could be his finest solo release yet. Derek was quite easy to talk with, being very open about his music, career, and life. I am glad to

Rob Halford interview - 03 Dec 08

God is gracious. Indeed, as speaking with Rob Halford was a lesson in humility and respect. He may be called the Metal God, but he comes across as your best friend. What an honor and pleasure to speak with a man who has long been at the top of the Metal hierarchy. He was lengthy, and humble, with his responses. I like what he had to say about his unfortunate comments about Metal during his Two phase, as well as the possibility of hearing another approach to the Two music. And we all want

Fifth time is the charm. The previous four times I was scheduled to speak with one of the AA guys, it never happened. Thankfully guitarist Johan Soderberg was available to give me 20 minutes before the band's meet & greet. As with every other Scandinavian musician I've interviewed, Johan was soft-spoken and laid back, therefore tough to interview, but quite honest. He spoke about their latest album, the band's record label, and songwriting among other things. And you know you want an

Moonspell interview - Mike Gaspar 17 Oct 08

Uncut, unedited. Mike and I spoke in the back of the tourbus for about 30 minutes. He was very open about his youth, which was interesting to hear. We also discussed Portugal, which led to talk of sports. Our conversation was more personal, as opposed to just talking about Moonspell. His comment about Russia and Rocky IV was hilarious. Mike was great to speak with, and thankfully he had a lot to say. When we were done and I was leaving he gave me a guitar pick and said, "it must seem weird
