WIDB Interview with Brendon Small of Dethklok
Back in November, during the same weekend that I interviewed Levi Benton of Miss May I, I took an additional trip to the St. Louis region. This particular trip was to The Pageant for the Metalocalypse Tour 2012. The show featured The Black Dahlia Murder, All That Remains and was headlined by none other than the infamous animated band whose Adult Swim television show the tour was named after, Dethklok. I got a chance to sit down with Brendon Small – the show’s creator and band’s vocalist and guitarist – and discuss topics such as the show’s creation, the… Continue reading
WIDB Interview with Levi Benton of Miss May I
Hey everyone! Malcolm Turner, your friendly neighborhood Metal Director and host of Metal Migraine, here! I’d first like to apologize for being so distant for most of last semester.

Streams are up!
Just yesterday I was able to fix and reconnect the studios to the internet! Thus, each studio is live again, unless otherwise noted. That said, the Remedy has been dead air since roughly midnight. That is some sort of software problem or a student DJ did not turn the automation back on. Regardless, an easy fix once I am up in the station today.
