The Vault of Metal Returns
The Vault of Metal Internet radio show brings you the best in Metal from around the world. Whether from the 1970s to today, signed or unsigned band, this show does not discriminate. As well with the addition of my new cohost Kris “the Metalchick,” unique commentaries that are often copied but never duplicated. The new show promises to be better than ever!
I program my shows like I would put together show bills, so every block sounds like a mini-concert! I stream replays of my past shows five days a week, Monday through Friday, from noon to 6 p.m. Eastern, as well as LIVE Saturdays in the same time slot. As the word of the metal we play spreads, our network of stations continue to grow, making this show the fastest growing and one of the largest followings on the Internet.
Not only do you get great Metal, but interviews with those bands and people in the industry the fans love. Unlike other metal programs, I approach interviewing people in the industry like I would friends. After 20 years as a roadie, I know no other way to do it.
I prefer to think of these interviews as co-hosted shows, since with The Vault, everything tends to be unscripted and for the fans’ benefit. The show has already had major acts and people such as: Rudolf Schenker and Klaus Meine [Scorpions], Dave Ellefson [ex-Megadeth bassist, F5, Iron Steel], King Diamond [King Diamond, Mercyful Fate], Neil Turbin [original Anthrax singer and front man for Death Riders], Vinny Appice [drummer Dio, Black Sabbath, Heaven & Hell], Chris Caffery [Savatage and TSO], Craig Goldy [Dio], Bob Mitchell [Attacker], Gary Kramer [Kramer Guitars], Brian Vollmer [Helix], Juan Crocier [RATT, Dokken], Randy Black [Annihilator, Primal Fear], Joey Belladonna [Anthrax], Doro Pesch [ Warlock, Doro] Producers Michael Wagener & Richard Chycki, Artists Boris Vallejo & Julie Bell, and Author Gary Charles as well as many unsigned and independent artists like Vainglory, Benedictum, Cage, Zandelle, After Therapy, Cessation of Life, Hydrogyn and Sothis, to name a few!
Listener interaction is very important to me and is strongly encouraged! I am in The Vault of Metal chat room every time the show is LIVE. To be honest, half the fun of the show comes from my listeners.
We also strongly encourage listener participation in the interviews. We continue to strive to involve the listener base in every aspect of the show. Listeners can submit their requests to requests@tmhrlive.com. Questions and comments may be submitted directly to me at raven@themusichotwire.com. During my live shows, call directly into the studio at (866) 435-9254.
Sarcasm, warped humor and stand-up comedy also make its way onto the Vault. Who said Metalheads don't have senses of humor? And of course, my Daily Rant! Life is too short to be so serious so join us and have a good time. We have great things coming in the future, so we want you to join us for the ride.
So check out the Vault of Metal
And remember, a show for Metalheads by a Metalhead!
