Metal Academy Podcast Episode 21 Released
The hour has finally come to pass with episode 21 of "Metal Academy" podcast going live earlier this afternoon (through iTunes, Stitcher or the below link). It's the final installment in our five episode series covering the year 1984 & we've saved the best for last with this show focusing entirely on the most extreme metal releases to hit the underground that year. Join us as we examine all of the best speed metal & thrash metal that was on offer. We'll also be taking a deep dive into the first couple of genuine black metal releases to leave their blood-stained mark on the global music scene. The feature releases are Metallica's "Ride The Lightning", Slayer's "Haunting The Chapel" EP & Celtic Frost's "Morbid Tales" EP but you can also look forward to hearing us taking on records from Exciter, Anthrax, Living Death, Voivod, Slayer (Live), Possessed, Destruction, Bathory & Hellhammer. So no respecting fan of extreme metal should miss this audio glorification of all that's vile, repugnant & blasphemous.
