Inspiration for your isolation! This week’s show singles out the highly driven one-man metal bands whose solitary efforts have uniquely altered the arc of metal history. Check out Sweden’s exalted Bathory; along with multitasking visionaries Necrophagist, Leviathan, and Thrones; brutal death metal demigods Putrid Pile, Bloodsoaked, and Insidious Decrepancy; and retro hellstormers Midnight and Toxic Holocaust. We know this show inspires a slew of new solo bands during this era of quarantine…know your Roots!

Read over a dozen interviews with Quorthon of Bathory, plus a barrage of interrogations with other one-man extreme projects, in the 750-page masterwork METALION: The Slayer Mag Diaries.
