The latest queer take on heavy metal sees Tom and Matt have a look at the time Trivium took a stand on the side of the LGBT+ community, and when grinding black metallers Anaal Nathrakh made us think, "camp".
We discuss 'And Sadness Will Sear', the song Trivium wrote about the homophobic murder of Matthew Shepard. We cover what it meant to us, why this was so significant in the timeline of metal bands coming out as allies, and how we feel about the song hearing it now.
This week's Camp Classic is the unlikely Birmingham brutality of Anaal Nathrakh, and their 2016 searing blast of annihilation 'Depravity Favours The Bold'. Tom and Matt have radically different interpretations, one rather painful, and the other an entirely positive recognition that has something to do with 1980s pop music. Sort of.
Plus the Hate Crew Gaybar sees three additions, with Obarșie by Sur Austru, The Golden Pentacle by Marco Garau's Magic Opera, and Wreath Of Frost by Starforger all added. And no, we're not making that middle one up.
Plus the usual overenthusiastic digressions, obviously.
