Focus on Metal episodes

  • EP 470 - The Headmaster
    This week we opted to honor legendary engineer and producer Martin Birch. Of course we could have done some long discussion on his legacy but being FoM we had do something a little different.
    So we are going old school FoM with a full discussion episode as we compared what we think are the top five Martin Birch albums. Rest in peace Headmaster.

    We had Dave Reynolds on as our guest for the final two episodes of our large format Kerrang! project. This week we have him back to talk about (of all things) Europe and the rise of melodic metal.
    Given his background and history of the bands he wrote about it seemed like a good fit.

  • EP 467 - Aardschok
    January 30th 1982, “Metal Mike” Rijswijk presented the first Aardschok festival. Like the launch of the long running magazine, the festival was another major milestone in metal.
    The festival was last held in 1999 but the tradition in the Netherlands is carried on by Dynamo Open Air. Since none of us are going to enjoy any of the mighty festivals this year we
    figured we’d get “Metal Mike” on the show to talk about the history of the Aardschok Festival and it’s parent magazine.
