Open Metalcast Episode #92: Melt

Summary: We're starting to see a thaw at the Open Metalcast headquarters and with it is the realization that maybe we'll make it through this winter after all. Fortunately the Internet connection has stayed strong (knock on fake-wood) so we've been able to scurry through the net to find the finest in Creative Commons Metal to help keep your ears nice and toasty warm. Joining us this episode are trakcs from Trocotombix, We Are Idols, Recursion, Skein, Larion, Oblivion's Garden, Oblivion, Cara Neir, Poison (thankfully not the hair-metal band) and a return by Captain Three Leg. Ten tracks of metal waiting for you to download and headbang (or more likely shovel) to while we wait patiently for spring to arrive.
