Lingüa Brütallica - Episode 17: Kat Gillham of Thronehammer (UK and Germany)

Lingua Brutallica

In this episode, we speak to vocalist and drummer Kat Shevil Gillham of Enshroudment, Lucifer's Chalice, Nine Altars, Uncoffined, Winds of Genocide and Thronehammer. Focusing on her work with doom metal group Thronehammer, we talk to Kat about how her deeply descriptive lyrics immerse the listener in a multisensory experience of ancient battles fought amidst a ferocious landscape, drawing the listener's awareness to the brutality of both war and nature. Building on this discussion, Kat explains how she and her bandmates separate their lyrics from their politics, using their social media platforms to take a strong stand against fascism while allowing their lyrics to take the listener to a land of pure escapism and fantasy.
