Atmospheric doom metal band Avernus joins me for a conversation at Melinda’s Pub (6906 W 111th Worth). After a considerable time away, Avernus returns with the stunning new release, “Grievances.” We talk about the new album and its broad, cinematic scope, as well as the band’s jagged path to the present day.

“Grievances” is a solid album; it’s doom metal for people who think they don’t like doom metal.

Before the chat with Avernus, Melinda’s Pub owner Chris Barry jumps in the car for a quick chat about his place (go there for the smash burger!). In an ironic twist, we didn’t eat smash burgers until after the camera and mics were shut down (they were awesome, though.).
