This week we welcome Darkthrone’s Nocturno Culto as our guest! We discuss Darkthrone’s new album, Old Star, the way the songs on the album are sequenced between ones authored by him and by Fenriz, his increasingly diplomatic view of music, the possibility of a sequel to his documentary The Misanthrope, the importance of being extreme during the rise of black metal, the Darkthrone album he feels is most under-appreciated, the process of getting the Old Star mix right with Sanford Parker, and the art of doing interviews after not doing them for many years.

Petar, Brandon, and Jozalyn also discuss the sad news that Dave Mustaine has been diagnosed with throat cancer, Spotify’s claim that they overpaid artist royalties in 2018, and Tom Morello’s response to backlash over throwing a fan’s phone into the crowd.

Songs: Darkthrone’s “The Hardships of the Scots” and “Duke of Gloat”
