#432: Dark Funeral's Lord Ahriman

Lord Ahriman of satanic black metallers Dark Funeral is our guest
this week! We discuss his thoughts on Shakespeare and memorable
theatrical performances, why the rhythms on the band’s new album We
Are The Apocalypse were a primary focus, and being unable to leave
Cancun, Mexico, when the pandemic hit the world. We also talk about
how someone stole Dark Funeral’s stage armor the last time they
toured America, how the philosophy and vision of the band has
changed in the last 30 years, and how finally having a proper
budget has allowed him to make the music videos he always wanted to
do. Petar, Brandon, and Sylvia also discuss Alex Skolnick’s comment
on the Chris Rock/Will Smith Oscars slap and the ramifications of
the slap on modern culture. Song: Dark Funeral “Nightfall” Song:
Dark Funeral “Let The Devil In” Song: The Spirit “Celestial Fire”
