    Essential Heavy Metal Christmas Songs

    Over at CFMU, I co-host the metal show – Kill, Eat, Exploit the Weak – and we just finished our annual Christmas special. It’s always one of my favourite episodes to put together as the combination of heavy metal and the Christmas season brings two worlds together that normally don’t mix – the extreme speed…

  • Witchfinder Radio Happenings Week of October 15th, 2012

    Back again from the land of the dead! It’s been an interesting few weeks here in Witchfinder Radio land, but I think I’ve managed to claw my way up and out once again! Here’s this week’s playlists as well as links to download the latest podcast type shows. Feel free to shoot any feedback or…

  • Scythia – …Of Exile

    Scythia have outdone themselves on this record. One listen to it with your headphones on and you’ll be humming the oboe parts to ‘For The King’ and quite possibly singing it over a pint of mead down at ‘Hobarth’s Inn’. …Of Exile is a fun, rollicking ride and I suggest you strap on your leather…

  • Postcards from Natalie Zed, Set #8

    Hellbound readers, you know Natalie Zed, right? Natalie was our big grand prize winner way back in January, taking home more than 50 CDs + and shortly after she received her huge box ‘o CDs, Ms. Zed asked us over at Hellbound HQ if we’d be interested in running reviews of her winnings if she…

  • Scythia / Marching Mind @ Kilroys, Thunder Bay ON, October 20th, 2010

    Scythia, are nothing short of incredible particularly when you consider that the band had only been together for a few weeks prior to taking off on tour (member changes)! Leader of the pack David Khan is very much at home on the stage and leading his tribe through some of the best folk metal I’ve…
