Скачать или смотреть Mead, Metal & Mythology with JR – Early Black Metal, Labels

JR is a musician, family man, and record collector—and co-owner of Brimming Horn Meadery in Milton, Delaware, where mead and metal have been colliding for over eight years. If you’ve been to Decibel Beer & Metal Fest or follow bands like Dismember, Enslaved, Junius, Rosetta, Immolation, Incantation, Demolition Hammer, Osi and the Jupiter, or Soulfly, you’ve probably seen Brimming Horn in action.

In this episode, we cover a lot of ground: the highly controversial early black metal scene, the realities of running a small label in an era of skyrocketing vinyl costs, and the narrow margins that make it a labor of love rather than a living. We also talk about JR’s new venture, Bolverk Collective—part record label, part apparel brand—rooted in the darker side of Norse mythology, and why that side isn’t always something to embrace.

From running multiple businesses to balancing family life with creative output, JR offers sharp insights into the music industry, small business survival, and the deep connection between art and community. We also revisit Party Like It’s 793, with news about next year’s festival.

If you’re into music, mythology, or the intersection of the two, this is a conversation worth hearing.
