  • IN VIRTUE: Age of Legends, Sisyphus, and Rolling the Damn Boulder | MRP #068
    Jan 12 2026

    The Metal Robot Podcast (2026-01-12) Tonight we sit down with progressive power metal band In Virtue, fronted by fellow metal YouTuber Trey Xavier (who might sound familiar if you were watching his channel when it was Gear Gods). Their sound is described as power metal without the cheesy bits. So if you’re a little Gamma-ray intolerant, or get the runs after listening to Gloryhammer, then this is right up your alley. The band just dropped their long awaited third studio album “Age of Legends” November 21st. Trust me, it’s so worth the wait.

  • SADISTIC FORCE, Epic Death, Brass Metal & MORE | MRP #067
    Nov 17 2025

    The Metal Robot Podcast (2025-11-17) We’re diving headfirst into three wildly different corners of the metal universe — from the epic death metal of Mytherine’s “Lord of Mountains” to the brass-clashing disaster of Fallstaf’s “Ode to the Dead.”

    Then, chaos reigns in a new round of Metal Archives Roulette, where we end up in Montenegro with thrash metal band KK Street Bangers

    Finally, things get sinister as Sadistic Force joins the show to talk about their latest record Morbid Odyssey — a whirlwind of blackened speed, chaos, and pure unholy fun.

  • BONUS: Burned In Effigy on their next album "Tyrannus Aeternum"
    Sep 1 2025

    The Metal Robot Podcast (2025-09-01) What happens when neoclassical shred meets face-melting death metal? You get Chicago’s own Burned In Effigy. Their 2022 debut Rex Mortem earned them stages with Obscura, Orbit Culture, and Revocation. Now, they’re back with their sophomore release Tyrannus Aeternum—dropping Halloween 2025, because apparently your nightmares needed a soundtrack.
