Matthias and Jimbo from the poignant Black Metal band Harakiri for the Sky join us on the latest episode. We discuss the outlook modern underground bands have on making albums, how having such powerful introspective lyrics can create such visceral music and how that effects the guys in the band; we also discuss Jimbo's lyrical writing process and what inspires his impassioned lyrics. Check Harakiri for the sky out on Spotify.

We also were visited by a special guest, Dave, a local Toronto man who was on mushrooms that decided to invade our intro as we recorded it.
