This week on GIMME METAL:
Akiavel Guest DJ Special – Akiavel formed in southern France in 2018 to manifest a sound distinctly modern but with an appreciation for the oldschool death metal legends of the ‘80s and early ‘90s. The result? A mix of groove, thrash, black and classic death metal singular to Akiavel. Not allowing a global pandemic to slow them down, the band’s latest record, Væ Victis, comes just one year after their debut full-length album. The concept album delves deep into the darkest parts of the human psyche. Further evolving their sound and delivery, Akiavel takes a radical approach to their musical assault, consuming the listener with dizzying maelstroms of chaos. Væ Victis embodies the word “death,” putting forth an intrusive battery of blistering guitars, pummeling drums, and scathing vocals that culminates in one of the most robust death metal records the genre has seen yet. GIMME METAL welcomes the band to the console.
Metal Sydney Metal Guest DJ Special – Metal Sydney Metal serves as a community crossroads for the thriving metal scene in Australia’s largest city. Tour info, venue guides, hype for local underground artists and more all reside at the metalsydneymetal.com site. Join DJ Double X for a full on Antipodean metal takeover!
Funeral Leech Guest DJ Special – Following the recent Carbonized label special earlier this month, GIMME METAL is pleased to welcome Carbonized recording artists Funeral Leech to the DJ throne. Hailing from New York City, Funeral Leech was forged in the twilight hours of 2015 with the purpose of spreading slow death. The band conjures their own dark, brooding brand of mid-tempo death/doom that finds triumph in depression and suffering. The band’s recently issued Death Meditation full-length invokes six ghastly hallucinations from beyond the living world. Join drummer Lucas Anderson for a show of anguish, despair, and some damn fine metal.
Between The Lines Vinyl Club Spotlight: Jim Santanella Interviews Johan Hegg – Amon Amarth’s 1998 debut Once Sent From The Golden Hall is the GIMME METAL Vinyl Club album of the month, available on exclusive clear red/blue marble vinyl (visit shop.gimmeradio.com for details) and did you expect anything less than an epic interview with frontman Johan Hegg? As a bonus, GIMME will deliver a twenty-four hour marathon of Hegg’s Hammer Of The North show as well as archived episodes of Heggvegr with his wife Maria Saturday May 15th on the Metal 2 channel. If that isn’t enough, GIMME METAL TV has Amon Amarth’s The Pursuit Of Vikings: 25 Years In The Eye Of The Storm screenings Friday, May 7th 7:00pm ET / 4:00pm PT and Saturday, May 22nd 1:00pm ET / 10:00am PT.
This week on GIMME METAL TV:
King Diamond: Songs For The Dead Live – There is only one King Diamond, and for more than three decades the great Dane has been dropping classic albums and putting on shows fans remember for the rest of their lives. Perhaps the only downside to having such a formidable catalog is that there are just too many great songs to fit into a single set. However, you would be hard-pressed to find a fan who wouldn’t want to hear 1987’s seminal Abigail in its entirety, and Songs For The Dead Live captures this, twice, and in very different locales. Boasting eighteen songs per set, each of the two shows – Belgium’s Graspop Metal Meeting in June 2016 and Philadelphia’s Fillmore in November 2015 – feature a brace of classic King Diamond and Mercyful Fate tracks including “Welcome Home,” “Halloween,” and “Eye Of The Witch” before launching into Abigail. Tune in to GIMME METAL TV for King Diamond’s Songs For The Dead Live from Metal Blade Records! This show features King’s entrancing stage antics and backgrounds while showcasing a history of King Diamond songs played, as usual, to perfection! Download the GIMME METAL app today!
