Metal Heads Podcast

Music EN ↓ 30 episodes

Combining extreme metal and psychology in one! The monthly podcast where the host and a different guest for each episode, discuss the human element of extreme metal. At the end of each episode we play a game of 'Gift or Curse', where the guest must choose whether something is a gift for the world, or a curse upon the world.
