In this episode, recorded live at Fortress Festival 2025 in Scarborough, UK, I sit down with Frank Allain from Fen and Fellwarden to talk about the recording of Fen’s debut record, “The Malediction Fields”, the evolution of the UK black metal scene, his journey as a musician and much more. 

Then, it’s on to a solo news rant where the latest singles by Sanguisugabogg, Crypt Sermon, Forbidden, Novembers Doom, Unleashed and others are rounded up for judgment.  I also reveal - at the Legion’s request - my recipe for the best steak you’ll grill all summer and I unleash a Swirly of the Week from whence its recipient(s) will not soon recover.
