Didn't Go Platinum
Podcast Description
Didn't Go Platinum is the podcast that looks at the unloved and the overlooked from the world of heavy metal. We ignore the classics and instead, focus on the lesser-discussed gems. Whether it's a rarely mentioned entry from giants like Iron Maiden, or a relatively obscure British thrash band's forgotten comeback, we're interested. Where other metal podcasts look at Rust In Peace, Painkiller and Number Of The Beast, we'd rather discuss Five Serpents' Teeth and Dance Of Death.

Didn't Go Platinum takes a trip to Italy to discover a forgotten classic from the world of power metal. Regular host Tim Bolitho-Jones is joined by Alterium singer Nicoletta Rosellini to talk about Forgotten Beholder, by Etherna.
This Tuscany-based band were active for a few years during the mid-2000's and released a couple of albums, but have been relatively quiet for a while now. Forgotten Beholder is their second – and to date, final – record, and is a very enjoyable slice of power metal with a progressive edge.
