DOWN WITH THE MOST HIGH: Why Black Metal Has A Legacy Worth Preserving | ITN EP332

This week I’m joined by Daniel Rabadán Gayoso, the man behind Down With The Most High. What started in 2008 as a DIY merchandise and record label has evolved into something far more ambitious, combining extreme metal, craftsmanship, art and an uncompromising commitment to doing things properly, with the spectacular Celtic Frost, Emperor and Marduk collections being perhaps the ultimate expression of that philosophy. Daniel and I get into the origins of Down With The Most High, his decision to resurrect the label and take it full-time, the years of work that went into the Celtic Frost project, and why preserving the spirit and legacy of extreme metal means refusing to compromise. Then it’s time for another news rant, and this week I’m rounding up the latest singles by Ovate, Armagedda, Werewolves, Mother of Graves, Servant, Trolldom and others for judgement. I also talk about some of my favourite black metal songs recorded after 2020, I scour Slayer’s post-Diabolos back catalogue in the hopes of finding something worth listening to and it all culminates in a savage Swirly of the Week, as Slipknot and their maggots pay a visit to the Porcelain Bowl of Reckoning. Plus: Australian black metallers, Duskveiled, soak up the glory of the Unsanctioned Filth spotlight with a track from their debut record, Winters of the Soul.
