#97 - A Trip For The Brain: Metal & Mental Health

This week... Padre & the Voice Of Reason are let off the leash as history is made, the first In The Abyss episode sans Tregenza! However, once the insults & flaunting of the rules are done with, in support of Mental Health Awareness Week, the podcast rhythm section take a deep dive into the relationship between metal (and other forms of music) and mental health, discussing some personal and wider points intertwined with the music we love and the quite frankly incredible heavy metal community. Please be aware this episode features discussion of depression & suicide.If you're affected by any of the issues spoken about, there are places to get support;MIND: https://www.mind.org.uk/Samaritans: https://www.samaritans.org/CALM: https://www.thecalmzone.net/Rethink Mental Illness: https://www.rethink.org/It's not always easy to reach out to someone when you're not feeling able to, so if you think a friend or a colleague is in need, do reach out to them.
