Jonas Holmberg From THIS GIFT IS A CURSE Discusses ‘Heir’, Mental Health, Past & Future Of The Band + Ash Magick Exclusive Premiere On The Sphere

This week, Jonas Holmberg, vocalist for Swedish blackened hardcore outfit This Gift Is A Curse, joins the podcast to talk about their blistering new album, "Heir", released on Season of Mist in March. We explore Covid’s impact on the band, how Jonas’ career outside the music industry fuels his songwriting, we discuss the band’s creative process and much more.

 

Then it’s on to a solo news rant where I answer your questions, including ranking my top five Swedish death metal albums, spotlighting bands primed for a comeback, and explaining why I haven’t launched a Patreon. Plus, I check out new tracks from Kaamos Warriors, Sodom, Gaahl’s Wyrd, Gruesome, and Full of Hell, and I weigh in on Machine Head’s latest public humiliation.

 

PLUS - we have another Premiere on the Sphere, featuring Turkish true black metal act Ash Magick with an exclusive track from their upcoming album, “Rituals of the Anathematic East”.
