The latest Wyrd Ways Rock Show sails through a diverse seascape of sound, from the classic Heavy Metal of Generation Steel and Armored Saint to the folk epics of Druidess and Ensiferum. At the helm is a revealing conversation with Berlin-based performer and Slut Riot co-founder Edie Montana. Moving beyond politics to focus purely on shared passion, Edie curates a segment of the show herself, recommending the psychedelic grooves of Villagers of Ioannina City and personal favourites from Nine Inch Nails, Deftones, and Architects. This episode proves that when we bond over riffs and rhythms, the barriers used to “other” marginalized voices—like sex workers and outsiders—simply crumble. The scene belongs to us all.
