Jeff and  5Hole set out to make up for their mishaps from last week. No surprise, 5Hole is totally dusted again and apologizes numerous times. He paints a picture of Cleveland’s finest mentally challenged lovers, and their public display of affection…

Jeff and The 5Hole get direction from Laura, little tips to tweak this shipwreck of a show, only she said nothing!!! After we find our new publicist, as usual 5Hole gets shitty, they enlist the help of Plan B, after Socks bails on his big debut.

We are excited to welcome back old friend Kyle Thomas of Exhorder to talk about all he has going on, the new Exhorder album, the Cleveland Browns, and more.

Jeff and the 5Hole start things off tonight with well wishes for that dickhole Gordo. After about 15 minutes and a Jason Bittner interview later, 5Hole is shitty again and ready to make some calls. He reaches out on the call back to Rhonda at Wendy’s…

Maximum Threshold / In The Pit Radio Exclusive!

The two teams pair up to interview Overkill drummer, and old friend  Jason Bittner.  Jason discusses his transition into the band,  and recording “The Wings of War.”

LORD DYING: Progressive Sludge Unit Announces North American Headlining Tour; Mysterium Tremendum Nears Release Via Entertainment One

Progressive sludge unit LORD DYING has confirmed a North American headlining tour. Scheduled to commence May 8th in Seattle, Washington, the journey will wind its way through more than two dozen cities and come to a close on June 8th in the band’s home city of Portland, Oregon. Support will be provided by psychedelic doom duo Year Of The Cobra. See all confirmed dates below.

LORD DYING will be touring in support of their impending new full-length, Mysterium Tremendum, set for worldwide release on April 26th via Entertainment One (eOne). Captured at Los Angeles’ West Valley Recording Studios in August of 2018 with producer Mike Plotnikoff (Fear Factory, In Flames), mastered by Howie Weinberg (Slayer, Nirvana, Pantera, Red Hot Chili Peppers), and swathed in the striking planetary landscape-inspired cover art of Steve R. Dodd, the band’s first full-length in four years is a monolithic, riff-heavy concept album delivering eleven heaving tracks that explore the many facets of dying and what may or may not exist in the afterlife. Emotionally nourishing both musically and lyrically, Mysterium Tremendum‘s exploration of death goes far beyond the mere longing for it in order to see what lies beyond (“Lacerated Psyche” is about the death of guitarist Chris Evans’ sister). There are endless layers to it; you might even find parallels between the record’s concept and life itself. It’s a journey. And in their quest to pursue death, LORD DYING has themselves found new life.

LORD DYING’s Mysterium Tremendum will be released on CD, double LP, and digital formats. For preorder options and to stream latest single, ” Freed From The Pressures Of Time,” visit smarturl.it/LordDyingMT.

“…its slow build into soaring melodies and heavier sludge is extremely gratifying, feeling like a journey was accomplished over the song’s runtime.” – Decibel on “Freed From The Pressures Of Time” 

“…full of emotional intensity and some of the bands most nuanced performances to date… This record is triumphant and powerful, the next step forward for a metal band looking to find their way after years of silence.” — Two Guys Metal Reviews 

“…its use of swelling melancholia during the two-minute introduction sounds like the prelude to demise, complete with hints of violin that seamlessly metamorphise into a new brand of LORD DYING sludge. Guitarist/vocalist Erik Olson’s vocal range has expanded this time around, offering clear and refined death growls that complement the progressive and euphonious riffs.” — MetalSucks on “Freed From The Pressures Of Time”
