This week, we continue our coverage of the tenth anniversary of Night Demon's iconic debut album, Curse of the Damned. We turn our attention to the song "Heavy Metal Heat," perhaps Night Demon's ultimate party anthem. We hear from the guys how the song came into existence, how that riff is fundamental to the band's identity, how it progressed from demos to final version, and why it works so well as a singalong moment in the live set. Night Demon explain how the song is a cry for freedom, a statement that metal is life, and a party anthem all in one.

Back in 2022, we devoted three episodes to the classic Night Demon song, "The Howling Man." This week we bring you a fourth episode on this epic track, including all-new content. Points of emphasis include the "Black Sabbath" live tie-in on this current Curse at 10 tour, the evolution of the song's live presentation both musically and visually, the nuances that drummer Brian Wilson brings to the song, and the groove and feel that make it special.

This week we continue our exploration of Night Demon's landmark debut album, Curse of the Damned, on the occasion of its 10-year anniversary by diving into "Full Speed Ahead." The guys explain why the song is regarded as a Night Demon classic and a fan favorite that features prominently in the live set. You will hear about the musical inspiration for the track and the influences that shaped it. Jarvis talks at length about how and why the song was written for Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead for a planned collaboration that never materialized. The boys also take you through the minutiae of how "Full Speed Ahead" is a different animal live than on studio recordings.

This week, we continue our exploration of all things Curse of the Damned in honor of the 10th anniversary celebration of that landmark album and the corresponding Ultimate Edition box set release. Our focus tonight is "Satan," track 3 from Curse. A deep cut, not often aired, with a tongue-in-cheek lyrical approach, chugging riffage, and an overall doomy vibe. Night Demon band members past and present break down the origins of the song, its lyrical content, the songwriting process, and its evolution from the rehearsal room to the stage a decade later. Along the way, you will hear clips of demo and live versions, with accompany commentary from those who were there.

Among other details, you will hear about the song's connection to the Blood Sacrifice comic, the writing process, early demos, why Jarvis recorded the guitar solo on the studio version, how Armand plays it differently live, its impact in the setlist, lighting cues, notable mistakes, and why the song will forever remain a staple of the Night Demon live attack.

A key component of the forthcoming box set is a copy of the Blood Sacrifice comic book designed by James Dufresne. This week, Jarvis sits down to interview James Dufresne about the connections between Blood Sacrifice and Curse of the Damned, the state of horror culture, and the unfinished plans to develop Blood Sacrifice into something that the original edition only scratched at the surface.

This week we continue our celebration of Curse of the Damned on the occasion of its 10th anniversary and the accompanying release of the Ultimate Edition box set of the album.

The guys will lead you track-by-track through the Run for Your Life versions of the songs, pointing out differences in production, tempos and performances, as well as memories from the studio.
