Breakdowns und Gefutschel w/Aaron (THE FALS)

Goodness gracious, great balls of fire, is this a sauna or what?
That big ol’ blazing ball in the sky seems downright determined
to slow-roast every last one of us. So, what’s a sensible
metalhead supposed to do? Why, let us tell you, and let us tell
you good: Hole up in the darkest room in the house, yank them
blinds shut tighter than an emo’s skinny jeans, pour yourself
some ice-cold lemonade, and settle in for two-and-a half hours of
pure, unadulterated nerd-metal glory.





Join us, as one of our most seriously-metal guests returns for a
serial instalment, honoring us with his presence for a second
time: the not at all hungover wild child spirit of metal, Aaron,
from Saarland’s one and only heavy black metal vanguards @The
Fals.





After some sunblocking sweet-talk with our guest about his band’s
brand-new, pipin’-hot new album Where Cold Steel Gleams, we
discuss another eclectic selection of fresh tunes, including the
recent releases by Grotesque and Grandeur – To Wither, To Become
( 00:43:15), Kaatayra – Caminhos de Água (00:53:00), Midwinter –
A Love I Hope Will Haunt Me Forever (01:08:36), Periphery – A
Pale White Dot (01:22:30), as well as Spell – Wretched Heart
(01:32:10).





As usual, the “lost & found” section of the show comes with a
new category! This episode, we return to our respective classic
metal cribs, as we are looking for “the best album from the year
we were born”. So, dust off your battle  jackets and iron
your vintage vests, as we treat you and ourselves to some of the
finest 80s and 90s metal albums, including the iconic Slayer –
Reign in Blood (01:41:30), Bathory – Blood Fire Death (01:52:34),
Bolt Thrower – Realm of Chaos (02:01:38), Machine Head – Burn My
Eyes (02:11:44), and, last but not least, Symphony X – The Divine
Wings of Tragedy (02:17:30).





One more thing, as usual: we’re on Discord! Come join the cult!
We would love for you to join the Earbvds family and talk music
with us.





Once again, we invite you to come along for this metallic journey
of epic proportions.
