S2, Episode Fifteen: Sleep Of The Angels by Rotting Christ, and V: The New Mythology Suite by Symphony X

We're exploring not one, but two underrated heavy metal albums on the latest episode of Didn't Go Platinum. Tim is joined by Janneke De Rooy and Amie Chatterley of rising death metallers Maatkare to discuss two of their favourites. First, we head to Greece for some underappreciated Hellenic black metal; it's Sleep Of The Angels by Rotting Christ. A transitional album by the Greek veterans, this one has a mixed reputation among not just their fanbase, but the band members as well. However, it's also deeply atmospheric and even a little romantic, and well worth another listen.Then, we put on our Sunday best and head to the theatre for some power prog; it's V: The New Mythology Suite by Symphony X. A rich and beautifully composed prog power masterpiece, this is one of Symphony X's more underappreciated records and Amie especially, adores it. Find out why.You can find Maatkare online on their official website.
