The time Dillinger Escape Plan released a shirt for an LGBTQ charity is celebrated on this week's episode of the LGBT+ heavy metal podcast, while Powerwolf's "Alive Of Undead" is found to have loads of queer relevance. This week's HCGB visit includes the hosts' top 20 albums of 2021, plus jukebox entries from Violet Cold and Stormkeep
This week, Hell Bent For Metal celebrates the time Dillinger Escape Plan marked same-sex marriage becoming legal in the USA by releasing a shirt for The Trevor Project, which is a charity that aims to prevent suicide amongst LGBTQ youth.
This week's Camp Classic comes from one of the hosts' top 20 albums of the year, which means it's time for Powerwolf's 'Alive Or Undead' to be looked at from a queer angle. Or, more accurately, several of many potential queer angles.
Plus this week's visit to the Hate Crew Gaybar sees the hosts run concisely through their top 20 albums of the year, then enter one album each from those top 20s to the jukebox. Those albums are Empire Of Love by pod favourite Violet Cold, and Tales Of Othertime by Stormkeep.
