How much do we love Metal? Enough to be writing up an interview with Dan Rowe, hero, legend and riff master of Bournemouth Post-Grunge collective Solcura while on the beach drinking a can of Brewdog Lost Larger.

This time out the conversation turns to matters of writing
The recently deceased debut EP “Petsuchos”, the name taken from that of the live crocodile at Crocodilopolis in Ancient Egypt, which was worshiped as a manifestation of the Egyptian god Sobek, from Edinburgh based Cult of Sobek is a Scottish Doom Metal classic.

We had the pleasure of a conversation with Sean Brazil, Clare Webster and Rob George from Gothic tinged Doom Folk Horror Metal pioneers Edenfall to discuss all things “To Gaze Longer at the Earth”.

The follow up to 2019’s impressive “Earth Mover”, which took the band to the New Blood stage at Bloodstock having finished as runners up in Metal 2 The Masses as well as support slots to Memphis May Fire and Ashen Crown, “Trapped in Animated Flesh” by Callous Hands has been ringing in our ears since the 5th
