The Unquiet Grave Episode 43: Black Soot and Red Blood (Heavy Metal of Appalachia)

Sun, Mar 13, 2022

Tonight’s episode features extreme metal from Appalachia, in no fixed order by date, genre, or geography. We have doom metal from Eastern Kentucky, ambient black metal from the Pennsylvania coalfields, bestial black metal from the Smoky Mountains, and a lot more. I always enjoy doing regional/geographically-based shows, and this one was especially fun because Appalachia is the region I personally hail from, and I got to feature a lot of bands I know, love, and have crossed paths repeatedly with over the years.
