I don’t wanna type too much, cuz the text goes over David’s face in the “Featured Posts” box, and he’s the leader of these young thrashers… that’s enough, go listen!

Ewww, not THAT kind of grind! Nah, but we talk about Murder Construct—his near-decade-long project that has just seen the light of day via Relapse—as well as his involvement with bands like Intronaut, Impaled, and the newly reformed Exhumed. Also hear about how he first met Danny Walker, and how they perfectly click (despite a different dynamic with each band). And just why in the hell was there only a 7-track EP after 10 years? Find out!

Shortly after releasing one the best albums of 2010, we got the opportunity to speak with one of the men behind Atheist. The resurrected Floridians have picked up right where they left off in the 90s with the massive “Jupiter”. This interview was originally recorded via phone, but I decided to broadcast it during my Xmas Eve special on ‘Mind Over Metal’ (timely, yeah?).

Read this Mind Over Metal exclusive interview with Brooklyn’s TOMBS. Philip Eisenhauer exhumes info on their upcoming sophomore release, complete with titles, inspirations, contributors, and more!

5 great questions with Roger Miret by Brad Barratt! Read all about the new release from The Disasters, as well as updates on Agnostic Front, who is recording their new one with Erik Rutan (Hate Eternal, ex-Morbid Angel) at Mana Studios, with Madball’s Freddy Cricien producing.

Recorded live 2010Dec10, Vinny and I talk about his early meetings with John Lennon at Record Plant Studios, how he was introduced to Ronnie James Dio, and his present work with the best thing to happen to Black Sabbath in years: Heaven & Hell (including the future that can no longer be). Plus, listen for a live version of “Bible Black” from the incredible Neon Nights: 30 Years of Heaven & Hell after!

Originally recorded 2010Nov17, MetalMattLongo speaks with Jimmy Bower! He’s had a long career in NOLA sludge, as the guitarist for EyeHateGod, drummer for Down, and more. We discuss his various projects over the years, his playing style, ‘Bower Power’, outlaw music, first experiences with Black Sabbath, and a promising future after a generation of hard work.

Originally broadcast 2010Nov12, Samoth called in live to ‘Mind Over Metal’ to talk about his new band, The Wretched End. We touch on similarities and differences with his more well-known projects, Zyklon and Emperor, as well as the recent popularity of black metal in modern media and society at large. I also bring up Skjold Church pretty ham-handedly, so be sure to listen for that delightfulness.

Brad Barratt interviews Mike Williams via email, who answers questions about both EyeHateGod and Arson Anthem. It ends with a great line about AA: “If you like fast, pissed and raw aggressive HC, check us out, don’t worry about who is in the band….”

In this LIVE interview originally conducted 2010Sep24, Mikael Weikath and I discuss the latest from HELLOWEEN—both the then-forthcoming “7 Sinners” and the “Unarmed: Best of 25th Anniversary” albums. We touch on how the band has moved through the changing times, and how HELLOWEEN have continually defied expectation, time and again. I also introduce him to Rasputina at the end, so that’s fun!
