Matthew and Steven chat this week with a musician for a change! Dr Mark Deeks is a choirmaster, as well as the piano player for one of Steven's favourite black metal bands, Winterfylleth, and also has his own "monastic doom metal" project called Ard. Ard put out a concept album which is kind of a historical novel in musical form so we were really happy to get Mark on the podcast and discuss a broad range of topics.

Youtube video of Winterfylleth performing "The Hallowing of Heirdom", one of their most beautiful songs.
Theme music by Steven and Matthew. The short piece of music at the outro is Steven's attempt at doom metal!
