This week, I conclude my three-part series celebrating the best albums of 2024 and reveal my favourite release of 2024. As is now our standing tradition, I am joined by Mike Hill. Mike is a fellow Horseman of the Podcasting Apocalypse, a member of Tombs, Scorpio Throne and Begotten Sun and the host of the Everything Went Black and Necromaniacs podcasts.

PLUS, in my weekly news rant: Rivers of Nihil turn in another slab of hot garbage, while posers across the globe bleat: “AOTY 2025!” in unison. Soulcrusher Festival’s recent cancellation of Akhlys highlights the need for bands to protect themselves contractually from the predations of our self-appointed moral superiors. And I share my first impressions of new tracks by Benediction, Grab, Cryptosis and others.
