Joakim Sterner of Swedish blackened death metal legends, Necrophobic, joins me this week to discuss their tenth album, “In The Twilight Grey”.  We also reminisce over the halcyon days of the Swedish death and black metal scene, Joakim reveals how and why he became a drummer and much more.

PLUS - I wax lyrical about some of my favourite new releases, including albums by Skeletal Remains, Keres and Permafog.  Baltimore’s Intimidation Display basks in the glow of my unsigned band spotlight, and on my weekly news rant:

• Fleshgod Apocalypse get one more chance to convince me that their hype is justified
• Burton C. Bell out-sci fi’s his former bandmates with “Anti-Droid”
• Full of Hell earn the ultimate accolade with “Doors to Mental Agony”
• The new Iron Monkey single goes head to head with Johnny The Boy’s re-recording of “Black Aspirin” in a battle for sludgecore supremacy
