We have returned with our feature My Favorite Concert Memory for the first time in 2025. We welcome in an artist we dig and ask them to recall a treasured musical memory. In this new edition; Charles Kieny of Paris France-based CKRAFT recalls how he converted from Nu Metal and Extreme Metal to an awakening to Jazz. The band released their latest and sophomore album, Uncommon Grounds on January 17, 2025.
David Davidson of Revocation is one of our favorite people in all of metal. We have followed his entire career, and you will be hard pressed to find a person this talented that is also humble and cool. We caught up with Dave at Saint Vitus Bar in Brooklyn, New York to chat with him about the brand new album The Outer Ones, releasing from Metal Blade Records on September 28th. We talked about the decidedly brutal death metal sound of the new album, working with producer Chris “Zeuss” Harris, H.P. Lovecraft and Tom Strom‘s insane artwork, Dave’s guitar practice regimen, Charlie Parker and John Coltrane, and more.
