Roots is Sound of the Beast author Ian Christe’s heavy metal history show on Sirius XM Liquid Metal channel 40. Since June 2004, each weekly show has examined another subgenre, band, movement, country, or theme. The show is available on-demand online from SiriusXM.com.
Was a great show and I appreciate Ian’s vast knowledge of metal.
Definitely should have included Sentenced though!!
PoisonBlack is ok, but the singer was at his best with Sentenced. And I felt like the Insomnium song played was just a shadow of a Sentenced song.
Anyone who has never done so should check out The Funeral Album.
