We come bearing blackened gifts of doom. Jess returns from the ice worm's lair (i.e., school) to deliver her deepest podcast yet. She talks to Justin Bartlett, Mike Hill, and Asa E about their favorite records of this year. Then she talks about hers. Justin is one of metal's preeminent visual artists, having done album covers for Aura Noir, Sunn O))), Trap Them, Intronaut, and many others. Mike is the vocalist/guitarist of Tombs, whose Winter Hours (reviewed here) was one of this year's most talked-about records. Asa runs Blog Bodies, a massive collaborative mixtape project, and is very tall.
