"At 49 years old, I still feel like I'm a 15 year old who loves metal. I still have that purity of heart and I love what I do. I love my work, I love my music... Metal is my salvation." DTABM's Gary Grim was lucky enough to chat with the legendary Max Cavalera (ex-Sepultura, Soulfly, Nailbomb, Cavalera Conspiracy, Killer Be Kiled etc). They discussed the upcoming "Return Beneath Arise" tour of Australia that Max is playing with his brother Iggor this month. They spoke about the legacy of the albums Beneath the Remains and Arise, the early days of Sepultura and the state of metal at that time, as well as the staying power of Max's music.

3 very different lives (one of science, one of spirituality, and one of debauchery) are thrown together by fate and a phone call to record this very first episode of the Deaf To All But Metal podcast for 2019. There is talk of new releases. The boys answer listener voicemail where Tyler of Face Command asks about dickheads in the metal scene and how to navigate around them in a tense political climate. There is also discussion of what is to come in the realm of metal in 2019. As always, Jez hasn't read the emails, Tain goes on tangents and Gary mentions Revenge. Plus, Mitch owes Jez big time. Here is the interview with Ray Ahn of the Hard Ons that we discuss in this episode: https://www.abc.net.au/doublej/music-reads/features/hard-ons-rose-tattoo-angry-anderson-ray-ahn/10714398 The DTABM theme song is, as always, by Smithy.

The term "bumper issue" gets thrown about the DTABM studio with reckless abandon oftentimes. However, these words have never been as poignant as they are when used to describe episode 32, the final episode of the podcast for 2018. Abandoning the convoluted, scripted skits for a more casual and conversational vibe, the DTABM pelicans talk about some of their favourite metal releases of 2018, their favourite gigs of the year, themselves, each other, the past, the present and the future. Not only that, there are some new segments featured for the very first time. Listener voicemail has DTABM fans calling in to talk about their fave metal albums of the year. There is also a segment called The Yellow Goat where the incomparable Dave Balfour discusses rare but noteworthy metallic gems from his extensive vinyl collection. To be part of the listener voicemail on the very first episode of 2019, call 02 8011 4663 (include the area code). For those calling from outside of Australia, the number is +61 8011 4663.

Maybe you want to tell us what releases you are looking forward to in the coming year. Maybe you want to give us your two cents about the podcast itself, about how you think we could improve or to shamelessly boost our egos by telling us we're already going great guns. Maybe you wanna weigh in on the current state of the metal scene. Whatever your heavy metal heart desires! Please don't forget to give us your name and try to keep your message brief, no more than a couple of minutes or so. Also, if you wanna plug your band/business/podcast/whatever, go for it! Finally, thank you for your support up until this point. Here's to more metal meanderings in the coming year! - Gary Grim The vocal coach Jeremy mentions in the episode: https://www.facebook.com/maryzimmeroffiicial/ Thank you to Mitch, Brooke and Chris for calling in!

Nietzsche. Sartre. Einstein. Durst. Touted by many as some of the greatest thinkers of all time. That was, of course, until episode 31 of the Deaf To All But Metal podcast. Your intrepid hosts up the intellectual caliber of their show in a manner that will not only expand your mind but perhaps even alter in ways unchangeable the zeitgeist as it is now known. There is a new segment called Great Farts in Metal History which is flogged to death throughout the course of the episode. There is talk about new releases wherein Jezabel and Tain giggle like cunning intellectuals at the band name Arsis. There is a segment about death metal releases from the month of October wherein Gary learns that Jezabel's feelings regarding the genre are not what he expected. There are haiku, ASMR death metal songs, ghosts of great British comedians and more packed into this bumper issue.
