IoMP 102: What Have You Been Listening To? - November 2025 (feat. Vigorously with Val Kleinhans)
The year may be wrapping up, but the riffs are just getting warmed up. In this year’s final WHYBLT episode, Collin and Tom tag in their friend and fellow metal brain-melter Val Kleinhans to deliver a curated blast of the month’s absolute best metal discoveries.
We’re talking shocking returns (hello, Alissa White-Gluz solo era?!), rising underground talent (Zero Tolerance, we see you), rediscovered classics, and even a few unexpected genre wormholes that swallowed our playlists whole. Whether you’re hunting new bangers to soundtrack your apocalypse workout routine or just want something heavy while pretending to wrap gifts, this episode is your feast of distortion.
Close out 2025 the way the metal gods intended. Loud, proud, and always discovering your next favourite track.
Hit play and end the year screaming “What Have You Been Listening To???”
