In this episode, Channa Channa Channa talks to Vlad Martynov from Besomora, the melodic death metal band from Australia.
The name Besomora is derived from Slavic mythology and draws inspiration from dark spirits and demons which Besomora say is a direct representation of the imagery they wish to portray and a reflection of their music. The band’s deep ties to their Eastern European background and their interpretation of melodic death metal are a refreshing and hard-hitting medley of all that is traditionally right in the melodic death genre. 
Besomora have been working hard on their social media campaign, promoting themselves with regular updates on their progression and development as they worked towards the release of their second single, a cover of Kiss’ smash hit “I Was Made for Lovin’ You”.
