VIA DOLORIS: Satyricon, Via Doloris & The Art Of Black Metal Chaos | ITN EP316

On this week’s episode of Into The Necrosphere, I welcome Gildas Le Pape of Via Doloris to the podcast for the first time to discuss the band’s blistering debut album, Guerre Et Paix. We dive deep into the writing and creation of the record, including how Gildas linked up with the legendary Frost to perform drums on the album. We also discuss Gildas’ stint as guitarist for Satyricon, what he learned from the experience, and his musical pursuits outside of black metal. Then, on the Weekly News Rant, the sinister minister himself, Karl Hikara, returns to help me round up the latest singles from Haemoth, Darkthrone, Frozen Soul, Enevelde and more for judgment. We also rank our favourite Satyricon albums, Karl delivers his own “bad metal take,” and we administer a well-earned tag-team swirly to a thoroughly deserving gaggle of online nitwits. PLUS: another Premiere on the Sphere, courtesy of our friends at Apocalyptic Witchcraft, as Flowers Of Rust debut the first single from their upcoming release, Crude Exhibitions of the Soul.   Featured Bands Via Doloris: https://viadoloris.bandcamp.com/  Flowers Of Rust: https://orcd.co/apw063  Ars Goatia:  https://arsgoatia.bandcamp.com/  Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.
