Mortiis has been an outlier and a legend in dark music for decades.  From being an original member of Norwegian Black Metal band Emperor, to his solo work as Mortiis, to the suicidal ambience of Vond, Mortiis has often been misunderstood, yet he has blazed his own path with no regard for trend or what could be deemed successful.  Now, decades later, the genre Mortiis arguably created has had an explosion in popularity worldwide.  In this episode we welcome Mortiis into our own dungeon to discuss Dungeon Synth past and present, his time in Emperor, gear, and his writing process.

We also welcome Jori Apedaile of Eneferens as he joins us as a third host and helps us tackle listener Emails about download codes, meeting our musical heroes, as well as helping us keep track of all the damn people named Kyle that write in.  The three of us attack another "FMK," a "T-Shirt of the Day," and of course a "Let's Stump Nick (and Jori)."
