THE DEVIL'S MOUTH Vol. 100 special: Greg Mackintosh talks about 'Beneath Broken Earth'
Our podcast reached 100 episodes and we got a few nice people to signal the milestone. Greg closes out celebrations in style.
We started these celebrations with a legend of the West Yorkshire doom scene, so how about we close them with... another legend of the West Yorkshire doom scene? Though both Aaron Stainthorpe and Greg Mackintosh hail from the same region and their main bands have often been grouped together, both have also far transcended any genre-specific musical origins with their brilliant careers and greatly helped shape the history of metal along the way.
A punk rocker at heart, Greg showed us that side well when he appeared as a guest on episode #29 of The Devil's Mouth, and now we called upon him again to pick one of his own songs. The choice fell on a recent Paradise Lost classic, 'Beneath Broken Earth', and... we'll let him explain the rest.
(as always, you can jump to our usual Mixcloud home to listen to the version with the song, too)
This concludes our week-long celebrations of episode #100. Normal programme will now resume, both with the podcast and the written features. I’d like to thank everyone who supported this little indulgence, both everyone who has listened to these testimonies and the musicians themselves who took the time to participate and offer their precious insights into their own work. The Devil’s Mouth would not exist without all of you.
