The second installment of live interviews at Black Sky Brewery’s free Sunday matinee shows August and September 2015.
Ichabod Cranium from Divine Torture would rather talk about metal than the New York Jets, which is perfectly understandable for football fans.
Black Sky Brewery owner Harry Smith reflects upon the night when a Six Feet Under song inspired the name of his bar. Gnash (since renamed Hapless) reflects on their favorite Black Sky brews.
A throwback podcast to summer 2015, When B Lo hosted live music and interviews during “Black Sky Sunday“, summer matinee shows at Denver’s Black Sky Brewery.
Totrure Victim is the green chile of Metal; spicy and distinctive, an appropriate reflection of their home town, Albuquerque, NM. Get a glimpse of Torture Victim’s Southwest metal outlook and influence. Ron and Matt from Denver Heavy Metal Society joined this interview to provide historical expertise.
B Lo also caught up with Joseph and Evan from Denver’s Thorns of Acanthus. They have a gothy, black metal groove, perfect as a soundtrack for brewing Black Sky beer. They still strongly believe in buying physical music; CDs or records, despite the inconvenience of those media.
This is Gomorrah’s first radio interview. We expect they had cooler interviews since this one. Gabe, Sam and Ben agree that thrash should be evil, with more underground, obscure metal content. These are all ways to describe B Lo’s vision of Metalix, but he is less of a G.G. Allin fan than Gomorrah.
Wyatt was on Metalix earlier this summer but that was before B Lo saw Helleborus play in July. He may have a mild, modest attitude during interviews but Wyatt describes his stage persona as “possessed”.
Wyatt continues to be the black metal ambassador for Manitou Springs, which B Lo inexplicably mistakes for Monument. Both towns are close to Colorado Springs, so the distinction may be small for Helleborus’ international fan base. Think of Manitou Springs as a mountain hippie sanctuary, while Monument is the place where blizzards always jam the freeway.
Denver’s Black Sky Brewery made a Helleborus beer for their CD release show, but finding good blue spruce for the recipe was challenging. Wyatt actually picked the spruce needles himself.
