Every Album Ever with Mike Mansour

Today we're discussing Relentless, the debut album by Pentagram. Most people are familiar with this band because of the viral video of singer Bobby Liebling staring at what we can only imagine is God. But Pentagram formed in the early 70s and is credited with pioneering doom metal. Bobby Liebling, on the other hand, has a backstory to match his face. But how well does the album actually hold up?

Today we're interviewing Mitsuru Tabata and he's walking us through every album by Japanese noise metal band Zeni Geva. Formed by KK Null in 1987, Zeni Geva was a metal band like no other, blending sludge, doom, prog, and noise to create a spectacularly brutal sound. And now Tabata is here to give us all the insight into this amazing band.

Today we're discussing every album by Amebix. Credited with almost single-handedly pioneering crust punk, Amebix were a band like no other. They began as bitter punk before evolving into brutal metal, influencing bands like Neurosis, Sepultura, and Faith No More in the process. Led by Rob "the Baron" Miller (who is now a world-renowned swordsmith) and his brother, Chris "Stig" Miller, Amebix were one of the gnarliest punk bands in history.

Today we're discussing An Undying Love for a Burning World, the latest album by Neurosis. It's been 4 years since the band publicly parted ways with founding member Scott Kelly over his admitted abuse toward his family. Since then, the future of Neurosis has been a mystery. But without warning they dropped this album, which features Kelly's full-time replacement, Aaron Turner (Isis, Sumac). Get ready, this album is an absolute beast.
