In this third and final part of the Sepulquarta trilogy I speak to the man behind the desk, Jens Bogren. He talks about the production techniques that were used, how to get great performances and the challenge of following up the work they did on Machine Messiah.

In this Bollocast I had chance to finally catch up with Moose as we seemed to have missed each other over the years. We talk Kill The Lights debut album, how he got back playing music again and walking away from Bullet.
Next up comes an interview that has been in the vaults a while. Sean Lambe was one of the producers of Saigon Metalhood: Vietnam's Heaviest Story. It's an eye opening look into one of the worlds most vibrant an unknown scenes.
Added to this are the usual news, reviews, warnings and rants about things that don't really matter. Lockdown starts to show it's effects, Finland gets a shout out and and phrases are questioned.

There are also some news stories, recommendations, admissions, admiration, criticism, condemnation and a heart warming eulogy.

In this episode I catch up with writer, fan and metal lifer the one and only Dom Lawson. We chat about pretty much every aspect of Doms career from meeting Iron Maiden on Jim\'ll Fix it to being a staff writer on some of the most prestigious magazines in metal. What stands out is this mans unabashed love of music DESPITE it also being his job.Added to this are all the usual features that you expect to make up a Bollocast. Reviews, advice, comment, news, abuse, rants, swearing, new music ideas, piss taking and me being the self aware ego maniac that you know and loathe.

DX has been on Talking Bollocks a few times and since he has a book on Goodfellas among his wide and varied catalogue it seemed only fitting he appears here too! We go on a winding, twisting journey through both our movie tastes and recommendations. This was great fun to do and I\'m sure you\'ll have fun listening.

This month it is time for a catch up with one of my favourite guests, the one and only legendary guitarist James Murphy. For those that don\'t know James tuneful soloing influenced generations of extreme metal guitarists and made it OK to have a relationship with melody whilst also smashing out extreme, brutal metal. Whether it was in Death, Obituary, Testament or Cancer his trademark leads have become the stuff of legend and so have his interviews. If you haven\'t heard our chat from September 2017 I suggest you go listen that first then come back here. Either way this is another Bollocast just for you, lovingly prepared and ranted by my good self. It also contains opinions, advice and rambling that you may want to completely ignore. Especially at the end.
