Third Eye Cinema Week 96 (1/22/23) Chris Hector of Ahab (10 years on)

Third Eye Cinema / Weird Scenes Inside the Goldmine podcast

Tonight, we’re talking to a modern day doom metal giant. Originally working in a very different band and genre, Christian Hector and Daniel Droste ventured off into the rarified world of funeral doom…and transformed it into something all their own.

With a focus on late 19th century whaling and nautical literature, particularly those tomes of a darker bent, they quickly drifted beyond the expected borders of the subgenre’s sound and focus with their third, clean vocalled and far more progressively inclined album, 2012’s The Giant, which so impressed us, we had Chris on the show to discuss its many merits.

But after a well received followup with 2015’s Boats of Glen Carrig, there was a decidedly long silence that left fans wondering if they’d gone the way of far too many other doom bands of note…until now.

Join us as we welcome back, after over a decade(!) Christian Hector of Ahab for a stiff pint of grog and a sea dog's tale well spun...
