Say what you will about the current incarnation of In Flames, but once upon a time they were leaders in the Gothenburg scene along with At The Gates and Dark Tranquility. They might have strayed a little along the way, but their early discography holds some gems that warrant discussion. For this episode we're joined by Monica Jackomino(ten years our junior) to discuss the early years of In Flames with two generations of metalheads.

From the ashes of Sleep, guitar maverick Matt Pike along with Des Kensel has carved an unmistakeable sonic identity of equal parts Mötorhead, Sabbath, 70s rock and fantasy themes ala Cirith Ungol and Dio with a propulsive rhythm section that is second to none. This episode we take a brief tour through the career of one of extreme music's most unlikely "success stories",High on Fire.

It was a sad day when Immortal called it quits in 2003. But we didn't have to wait long until one of the Doom Occulta brothers came back with another frosty entry into the Blashyrkh cannon, with I. It incorporated the grim tone of Immortal, but added a triumphant/NWOBHM vibe that they hadn't really been explored before. The Popeye vocals and unusual riffing were still present, but you could still hear the soul of Immortal coming through. Then in 2009 Immortal rode back onto the scene with All Shall Fall, a more epic streamlined incarnation of their unique take on black metal. Expounding on the "Immortal sound" Demonaz unleashed The March of the Norse, which almost acts as a sister album to the afore mentioned All Shall Fall. The Doom Occulta brothers continue to Storm Through Red Clouds and Holocaust winds into the future...

Perhaps one of the most important bands in extreme metal. From their avant-garde beginnings to their thrash-infused later output, they have blazed their own unique path. Their Slaughter of the Soul record influenced a whole new sub-genre of metal (for better or worse) and their music seems as vital now as when it was released. At The Gates are a band that are well overdue for an episode spotlight.

We don't often go to the Netherlands when coming up with show topics (although we should more often), but we thought it was high time that Pestilence got a little attention. Coming out of the mid-80s, they brought with them a thrash sensibility, but soon incorporated brutal/technical death metal elements, culminating in their Testimony of the Ancients album. This episode we're joined by frequent guest Chris Dick, as we navigate through their Consuming Impulse and Testimony of the Ancients records.
