IoMP 133: What Have You Been Listening To? - March 2026 (feat. The Blyzzrd)
Every metalhead has a playlist that looks like a battlefield of genres.
On this episode of the Influencers of Metal Podcast, Collin and Tom are joined by metal creator TheBlyzzrd for one of the show’s biggest monthly episodes: What Have You Been Listening To?
The trio dives deep into the songs and albums currently dominating their headphones, spanning everything from underground brutality to legendary metal staples.
Death metal fans will enjoy talk of Screams from Beneath the Surface by Monstrosity and the crushing atmosphere of Temple of Void’s The Crawl. Meanwhile, thrash fans get their fix with the latest heavy hitter from Exodus “Goliath.”
The conversation also explores emotional and atmospheric extremes with Loss by Gaerea, while groove metal gets its due with Into Oblivion from Lamb of God.
Tom brings some classic and modern influences into the mix as well, highlighting Canadian metal band Threat Signal and the horror-themed theatrics of “Twisting The Knife” by Ice Nine Kills. And of course, no metal playlist discussion would be complete without revisiting a legendary album like Chaos A.D. by Sepultura.
Throughout the episode, the hosts trade stories, recommendations, and the kind of chaotic metal fan debate that happens when three people with very different listening habits collide.
Whether you're searching for new bands to discover, songs to add to your playlist, or just want to hear metalheads nerd out about great music, this WHYBLT episode delivers.
