Ep.142: Napalm Death Discography Deep Dive + Black Sabbath & 2000 Trees Review
Welcome to another episode of Trve. Cvlt. Pop! the pop... sorry, the heavy metal music podcast, for a week anyway.On this epiosde Metal Hammer's own Rich Hobson is in the hot seat with Steve as Gaz continues to recover, and he has been a busy boy! Travelling around the globe to watch all the live music he can stuff into his greedy ear. Including the last ever Black Sabbath show at Villa Park and the 2000 Trees festival. He reviews both, before we get into our main point of conversation.Since their formation in the year 1981, Birmingham noise terrorists Napalm Death have been the most reliable and experimental of all of the extreme metal legends. There's been line up changes, sonic deviations into all manner of new sounds, highs, lows and everything in between. But here we delve into every single one of their 16 studio albums and pick our favourite song from it. Hopefully, giving you a guided tour of one of the most important bands in heavy music history.There's also a few new musical recommendations, from Blood Vulture, Barry Can't Swim, Jessica Winter, Clipse and Bully.

Ep.141: The Problem with Music Biopics
Welcome back to another Trve. Cvlt. Pop! it's the polyjamorous... nah, it's not... it's a music podcast.On this week's show, Sam is here and we look at the slew of music biopics that have been released over the last couple of decades, and show no sign of stopping, and ask; why are they so bad?From a shy Freddie Mercury with awful false teeth to a mockney Amy Winehouse getting blamed for her drug addiction, music biopics almost universally miss the entire purpose of what made their intended subject matter so special, and instead rely on cliches, formulaic structures, surface level performances and watered down versions of events.Here, we look at the problems with the genre, what can be done to improve them, what we fear is coming next and a couple of our own pitches that Hollywood might just want to consider picking up.There's also some new music recommendations and a lost banger from the past by Oxidde and Neutrino to chat about.
