Alt und bitter macht's, dem Tod zu dienen ... w/Chris (GEISTERFAUST, WALKING GHOSTPHASE, POISONED SPEED, PESTILENT PISS)

From the gloomy shadows emerges a spectral figure, walking
ghostly to the sound of creaking strings, aching joints, and
shredding riffs. He has clenched his phantasmal fist to worship
the One who bestowed upon him the gifts of venomous velocity, and
who has punished him with frequent and foul-smelling urination.





Don’t know who we’re talking about? Well, he’s a tough guy, likes
it really rough guy, just can’t get enough guy, chest always so
puffed guy.


Still don’t know? He’s that bad type, make your mama sad type,
make your girlfriend mad type, might seduce your dad type.





Still don’t know? Well, our ghastly guest goes by many names, but
whether he guises himself as Billie or Fuchtel, you shall know
him as Greilich. Duh!





Or Chris. Chris is also fine.





Join us as we open our cellar doors for one of Saarland’s most
prolific and talented musicians, our most humble and gentle
guest: Chris of GEISTERFAUST, WALKING GHOSTPHASE, POISONED SPEED,
and PESTILENT PISS – just to name a few of his projects.





After a deep dive into our guest’s globetrotting ventures, we
discuss another eclectic selection of new tunes, including the
recent releases by Fit For A King – Lonely God (00:26:48),
Blackbraid – Blackbraid III (00:39:44), Phosphorus – Frail Grasp
of Broken Hands (00:52:25), Deftones – private music (01:02:05),
and Malevich – Under A Gilded Sun (01:12:21).





As usual, the “lost & found” section of the show comes with a
new category! This episode, we are looking for the “best
heartache/lovesick album”. Grab yourselves some tissues and a
bucketful of ice cream, as we unravel some big feelings to the
soundtrack of Dornenreich – Bitter Ists Dem Tod Zu Dienen
(01:24:53), Maybeshewill – Sing the Word Hope In Four Part
Harmony (01:32:25), Team Me – Blind As Night (01:41:18), I
Prevail – Heart Vs. Mind (01:49:45), and Biffy Clyro – A
Celebration of Endings (02:03:37).





As always, we're happy to provide a Spotify-playlist to
complement this episode for your convenience. ⁠Check it out⁠!





Big shout-out to our good friend Timon of SEPARATØR for two
fantastic new tunes to spice up our conversation!





One more thing, as usual: We’re on Discord now! Come join the
