On episode 176 of Heavy Metal Philosophy, Jon Barbas discovers Atlanta's underground metal scene. I've been covering shows in Atlanta for a few years now, but always at big venues. I went to Atlanta to see Tomb Mold and Horrendous. It took place in a small bar called Boggs Social. I didn't know about this scene but I immediately felt at home. This is where my kind of people go. Here I report what I saw complete with pictures of the event.

On episode 175 of Heavy Metal Philosophy, Jon Barbas is going meta. It's an inception of music reactions. Rick Beato released a video titled 'The Real Reason Why Music Is Getting Worse', igniting a firestorm of controversy. Anthony Fantono then released his reaction video titled, 'Rick Beato Is Wrong'.
THEN! Become The Knight reacted to Anthony's video with a video titled, 'Boomer vs Coomer: a response to "Rick Beato is Wrong'
I have agreements and disagreements with all three gentlemen. Join me in the discussion!

Episode 173 of Heavy Metal Philosophy! I've been saying the past few years that we're living in a death metal renaissance! Well, don't take my word for it. I talked to one of the bands in the vanguard of this movement, Tombstoner. I had a few beverages with the band while they gave me first-hand accounts of today's scene. It may have gone off the rails several times, but it was fun when it did. You'll see.

On episode 168 of Heavy Metal Philosophy, I peek out of my death metal bubble. This week there will be a new Bad Omens album released called Concrete Jungle (OST), and I figured it was the perfect time to take a first listen to their catalog. What I discovered blew me away. I was expecting something like Sleep Token or Bring Me the Horizon, but they've taken their brand of metalcore to a totally different place. Join me as I walk you through my analysis!
