Episode 423: Unleash the Archers, Ingested, Cytotoxin 2020 Album Reviews + Crew Nation Donor Pick

Opethian Transitions: Part Deux

Unlike the last episode, this one doesn’t actually have anything to do with Opeth.  However, our transitions of styles from review-to-review are extremely jarring.  Also, I am not in the mood to try to think up a better title.

And remember – Be safe. Stay healthy. Stay Metal.
