Second run of a new podcast focused on extreme metal. Today, it's blasting war metal vs. brutal death metal -- which will reign supreme? What is the art of deliberately obnoxious music? How can a band move forward without compromising on primitive noise? What's the difference between BM and DM extremity?

32:28 - Impiety, Versus All Gods. Fast hybrid riffs, the problem with thrash, Shyaithan Stays True.
53:45 - Surrender of Divinity, Oriental Hell Rhythmics. Southeast Asian Extremity. Swords vs. sledgehammers.
