Info on Ragnarok
Radio Show Late December 2006 three
individuals with a keen interest in
both heavy metal and the apocalypse
came together to begin a "podcast"
programme. That programme was of course
Ragnarok. With a tagline of "The
soundtrack to the impending Apocalypse"
the three members (Victoria Baker,
Gordy Jeans, Dwayne Adams) began to
broadcast some of the "best"
of what can be described as underground
battle, death, black and thrash metal.
Although they have demonstrated a
very internationalist flavour with
their selections-including such bands
as Amon Amarth, Blind Guardian and
Sabaton, their main focus has remained
stead fastly fixed on the Scottish
metal scene and the bands inhabiting
it. Bands such as CORE, Dissolved
and Man must die are all cornerstones
of their broadcasts and indeed are
readily promoted. Any bands however
that wishes to be played merely has
to enquire at their MySpace
page. Almost any band is greeted warmly
and has a good chance of exposure
and airplay.
The Ragnarok metal
'zine (as such publications are known)
is due to be released around the end
of April will further bring exposure
to the bourgeoning Scottish metal
scene.
