Richard Duhig
Co-Host of The Metal Cell Podcast
My name is Richard Duhig I am 49yrs old and I host my own Podcast in Ireland called The Metal Cell Podcast. I have my own studio based in East Cork, where I have recorded numerous bands and people involved in the Irish Metal community for the show. I've been a Metal fan all my life and played in local bands, DJ'ed and travelled thousands of miles to attend concerts. Music is my life and thankfully I have a wife and kids that recognise this and support me doing the Podcast. I work full time doing shiftwork with a local Pharma company for 20 years, so the Podcast is sustained by that income as I make no money out of this. The amazing people that are involved in the Irish Metal Scene put huge amounts of time and dedication to this community where we all help each other out. This Podcast is dedicated to them and to the future generations coming through.
Richard Duhig has hosted 320 Episodes.

I had a brilliant chat with Josh & Conor of UK based Mathcore band Host Body. The addition of Sam on bass, Steve on Vocals/Synths and Paddy on guitars from bands such as St. Pierre Snake Invasion, Ogives Big Band, and Lightning Sharks, gives the band a lot of experience and the intention to create an abrasive heavy style of mathcore. The quintet brought this in spades with their debut single ‘Mouth’ which features an incredible video to showcase Host Bodys artistic vision also. We talk about this impressive release, how the band formed, their creative process, their smash & grab appearance at ArcTanGent, and what to expect for the rest of 2023.
