Lindsay Schoolcraft’s HEAVIEST Record! Moldovan Prog-Death Metal, Cheese, Assault, Speed, and MORE | MRP #073
The Metal Robot Podcast (2026-06-22) A new episode of the Metal Robot Podcast has landed, and this one is packed.
Kicking things off with reviews of three very different releases. Shadowborne brings epic fantasy power metal with their debut Heaven’s Falling, Conflux Collective delivers a crushing progressive death metal assault with In the Wake of Saturn, and Drakkar charges in with fast, heavy Viking-inspired metal on Invasion. Some albums soar, some hit harder than others, but every release gets the full Metal Robot treatment.
Next, Metal Archives Roulette returns! This time the wheel sends us to Moldova, where he explores progressive death metal band Neuromist. With a catalogue full of technical riffs, evolving songwriting, and a few surprises along the way, we dig into whether this hidden underground act deserves a spot on your playlist.
The episode wraps up with a special interview featuring Lindsay Schoolcraft, discussing her new album Harrowing. From songwriting and vulnerability to the creative process behind her latest record, Lindsay opens up about the album and the journey behind it.
Whether you’re looking for your next favourite band, discovering underground metal, or you’re here for the “‘round and pound” incident, we’ve got you covered.
