May's 'Best Of' lists will soon be upon us but lest we forget, April was an awesome month for releases particularly for death and thrash metal albums which is reflected in some of the bands whose new albums made my 'Dirty Dozen.' However, top of the tree is the immense funereal doom death sound of QAALM and to demonstrate what the podcast is all about, second is the Carcass on steroids pummel of PHARMACIST, two completely different ends of the extreme metal spectrum. If you want to investigate some of these bands more thoroughly, I have provided Bandcamp links here ~ https://www.deathrattlepodcast.com/2022/05/deathrattle-podcast-dirty-dozen-april.htmlSupport underground metal!!QAALMPHARMACISTFLAYED DISCIPLEENRAGEMENTTHE SCUMEND BOSSSENTIENT HORRORRUNECALLERSTATIC ABYSSMORBID CROSSBURNING LOSSDEAD HEADDownload and enjoy!!

Sunday's Sacraments are to be delivered on Metalzone Radio although there is nothing gracious about this show. The filth pit has been emptied of Writhing Shadows, Putrid Evocation, Cartilage and Holy Death (again). The random pick is a live track from Pantera.

There are riffs of every description in this show on Metalzone Radio whether they're slow, fast or mangled. I've been shoulder deep in the filth pit and dragged out 2 squirming little nasties from Tzompantli and Tenebro.

The random pick to close the show is by Stone Mammoth. Here beginneth the lesson ~Doomsday ProfitDepressed ModeCarbon BlackDisquietTzompantliTenebroWo FatNightstalkerGnomeVomit Bag SquadPitch Black.SektaDragonbreedCredicHead In HandHössferatu (Off the 'Ferociously Stoned' tribute to Motorhead album)MaskinDawohlStone MammothListen to the shows here ~Sunday - Metalzone Radio - 9pm UK@http://www.metalzone.gr/Tuesday - Downtuned Magazine & Radio - 6pmRipper Radio - 8pm@http://www.ripperradio.comTUESDAY/THURSDAY
