Episode 873: Pretty Pictures

from Radioactive Metal · host Snowy White

Heavy Metallers have traditionally been complete package type people. The tunes rule, of course. But we also enjoy the physical product as a whole. And the album graphics could serve two purposes: for both art and/or promotion. And this week we go deep into the discussion. How 'bout for you. Do the album covers make or break a record for you? In our "News, Views and Tunes", we go over Seb Bach as the new (live) Twisted Sister vocalist and we hit up a local record con. Musically, we crank some Dark Throne, Vitamin X, Portrait, Haggus, Black Lace, Obsession (US), Cyclone and we introduce LA hardcore bashers Broken Focus in our "Indie Spotlight". Horns Up!!

Relax, breathe, and enjoy. Mantric Malediction Guignol Noir MANTRIC MALEDICTION is an unforgiving vision of black metal, constantly immersing the listen in savage, frostbitten soundscapes. Each tremolo picked riff has an eerie, discordant and slightly worn sound, giving the record an antiquated essence, topped off with Schiach's forceful and primitive bellowed growls. In an age where high quality studio production is more available than ever, it's fascinating to hear a black metal album made in 2020 that sounds like it could genuinely have been recorded in the early '90s.Guignol Noir are an act shrouded in mystique, only playing a handful of shows and festivals, but are ready to make their mark with this debut full length album. Mantric Malediction was self-recorded by Guignol Noir in their private studio, and mixed and mastered by Kerberos of the Swiss black metal collective Helvetic Underground Committee.
