Episode 30 Miss Lava's Rafael Ripper
from The Distorted Dialogue Podcast · host Metal Institute of Thrashology
This episode of the Distorted Dialogue Podcast, we welcome Portuguese metal band Miss Lava, to discuss the Portuguese metal scene, the history of the band, opening for the legendary Graveyard and of course, their newest full length, Under A Black Sun. Mixing together elements of Doom metal, some Psych sounds, stoner rock and other genres of heavy, to make one kick ass album. If your fans of rock or metal this is for you, and especially if your fans of Kyuss, Mastodon, Electric Wizard and other similar sounding bands. They also blend in some fuzz, some rock and roll, and maybe a side order of HEAVY, to create such a delicious sound, my ears are watering as this plays. So glad I got to sit down and find out what all went in crafting these sweet sounds known as Under A Black Sun. A well written album, that feels just as much as a journey to the cosmos, as it does a killer metal album. A bit darker than their previous works, but still has plenty of brightness enclosed. A solid release, find out now what all went into creating it! 🎙️ Distorted Dialogue | A Podcast from The Metal Institute of Thrashology 🤘Welcome to Distorted Dialogue, the official podcast of The Metal Institute of Thrashology — where riffs meet ridiculousness and academia bows before the almighty arpeggio.Each episode dives deep, headfirst into the chaotic realms of metal, punk, hardcore, and beyond with band members, scene lifers, and other unholy scholars of sound. Expect unfiltered, uncensored conversations, deep dives into underground music, and enough sarcasm and sonic blasphemy to earn us a few detention sessions in hell.Whether it is Thrash or Metalcore, Doom to Death and everything in between, if it’s heavy chances are you can find it here. Interviews with artists, tech’s, and other members of the music industry, nothing is off limits, and same goes for the chats! Rather than a boring rapid fire of the same old questions everyone asks, I’d rather have a cool conversation that feels more like a hangout, rather than a pretentious business meeting. It’s METAL, let’s have some FUN! 🔔 Subscribe for new episodes where chaos becomes curriculum.Don’t Forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!
