For our second Summer Break episode we are excited to re-run our interview with the doom / experimental metal project Divide and Dissolve from February of 2019. Divide and Dissolve are one of those bands who really challenged us on our views and the way we talked about metal music. We both came away from the interview feeling like we'd just had our asses kicked in the most fantastic way.

Divide and Dissolve describe their aims as a project as “a simple one: to secure Black futures, liberation, and freedom; demand Indigenous Sovereignty; uplift people of color’s experiences; and destroy white supremacy.”

Divide and Dissolve have a new album out now called Gaslit, which you can check out on their Bandcamp.

Talking to Ghosts is recorded and produced by Michael Kurt and Wesley Mueller. For an archive of previous episode and new reviews, please visit our Official Website.

This week on the Talking to Ghosts podcast we are re-running our 2016 interview with the experimental metal band Muscle & Marrow (featuring a new intro and slightly improved audio)! Although this band is no longer active, the duo have a great new pop project called So Sensitive!

Muscle & Marrow were one of our favorite projects and it was an amazing opportunity for us to interview these great folks while they were still living in Portland, OR.

This week on Talking to Ghosts we talked with Mathieu Ball from Big|Brave about their new album "VITAL," which is out now on Southern Lord. We talked about recording during the early phases of pandemic lockdown, minimalism in art and music, and sound art. 

Big|Brave is an experimental metal band from Canada and their new album is heavy and brutal. Check out more from them on Bandcamp.

**SUMMER BREAK ANNOUNCEMENT**

We will be taking a little over a month off from the show to refresh ourselves after 7 years and a hard pandemic. TTG will be re-running our next three episodes with new intros. We will still be doing brand new reviews for the site during our down time. Returning on 6/28 with a new interview!
