Everything Went Black Podcast

Chris Ashley of Slasher Film Festival Strategy joins this week to discuss his recent work with Cadabra Records.  We discuss his background in hardcore punk and the early influences that motivated him to embark on this dark journey into intense electronic music.

Ralph Schmidt returns to us for another deep, heavy episode.  As part of our Metaphysics of… we dive into one of the scariest human emotions in the human psyche.  I’m talking about Love, a feeling that defies logic and reason but underlies almost every aspect of our lives; either the presence or lack of love.

 

Intro:    “All of the Dark Things” – Mike Hill

Outro:  “ Eternally is Here” – Gun Club

A few weeks ago, Drugoth joined us for his first of hopefully many visits to the podcast. We spoke primarily about music and the creative process and touched on martial arts, a passion that we both share.  I think we could have gone for another hour so I invited him back.

You all know how I feel about horror and horror podcasts.  This week, I’d like to welcome Kainan Becker, the host of Ghost Pirate Entertainment, a great YouTube channel that covers horror on the streaming platforms.  I check in with Kainan on a weekly basis to get the lowdown on what to check out on the seemingly endless content available out there.

Continuing my dive into sick Australian musicians with intense work ethics, I chat with Drugoth.  It was another early morning for me, but we had a great conversation.  For those of you who tuned into the Into the Necrosphere Best of 2023 episodes, you will remember that Drugoth’s LP “Battles May Cease But War is Forever” rated quite high on my list.
