We are, 4 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,159 of course still award winning by the way, heavy Music podcast here with you 5 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,520 every Friday. My name is Parenhiesh. Sam Dignon is here before me. 6 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,640 Hello, Hello. Not a lot going on in my lab at the moment, 7 00:00:49,719 --> 00:00:52,439 but you know, when's your when's your first what's your first gig of 8 00:00:52,439 --> 00:00:56,920 the year? Come hopefully? Did I get all sorted Spanish love songs in 9 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,039 like next weekend? Right? Yeah? I was in the discord yesterday. 10 00:01:00,159 --> 00:01:03,480 Yesterday, I was in five guys pre the gig I'm about to talk about, 11 00:01:03,879 --> 00:01:08,400 and some rocker with the Orcs was playing the screaming trees hell yeah into 12 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,560 a Spanish love song song. I can't remember which one it was, but 13 00:01:11,599 --> 00:01:14,400 it's all about the garden. I don't like him. It wasn't that one, 14 00:01:14,879 --> 00:01:17,480 but it was a real like, oh shit, I can hear that 15 00:01:17,799 --> 00:01:21,159 that man while I'm eating some farmyard meat in the form of this burger. 16 00:01:21,239 --> 00:01:23,079 Very appropriate and very fun, but yeah, fair play there. Yeah, 17 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,000 so as I've obviously just alluded to, we haven't got a question section this 18 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,680 week because I feel like there's gonna be a fair old run time on this 19 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,560 anyway, because I have my first show of the year to talk about, 20 00:01:34,599 --> 00:01:37,959 and it was a very one of those cases where the first show of the 21 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:42,879 year is one of the big sort of you know live music story, say, 22 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,560 the currently big tour of the year is going to be one of the 23 00:01:45,599 --> 00:01:49,000 biggest tours of the year, isn't it really? Yeah? Absolutely, I 24 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,519 am, of course talking about Bringing the Horizons Arena tour that was supposed to 25 00:01:53,519 --> 00:01:57,439 be in support of the post Human Next Gen record. It's now a prelude 26 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:02,680 to the Posthuman Next Gen record, but you know, it brought along a 27 00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:07,199 really big support bill in terms of, you know, bands who are kind 28 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:13,639 of up and coming at the moment, and I decided to go along. 29 00:02:13,719 --> 00:02:15,639 And my perspective going into this was is a bit of a strange one, 30 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:21,000 perhaps because the main reason I went into this is essentially Bringing the Horizon were 31 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,800 playing in the actual city I live in, and so I didn't have to 32 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,319 travel anywhere, and it sort of felt like almost like a now or never 33 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,560 moment in that regard of like me actually going to see them because them before 34 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:35,599 I remember no, because at their like artistic peak, when they were like, 35 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,000 you know, they were the up and coming band, I wasn't like 36 00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:42,719 in and around their shows. I never caught any of their like big arena 37 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,199 tours prior to this. I didn't do download last year. The shows I 38 00:02:46,199 --> 00:02:50,240 actually like would have liked to go to were in places like Malaga. I 39 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,000 wasn't going to go there, so and I guess it's in the last few 40 00:02:53,039 --> 00:02:58,800 years they'd stopped being a band I kind of prioritized, so and you know, 41 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,879 this tour, you know, with the that has and everything, I 42 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,159 probably would have skipped over it again personally if it hadn't been like right on 43 00:03:05,199 --> 00:03:07,879 my doorstep. So I was like, this is the time to do it. 44 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,560 And as it happened, it became a you know, it was a 45 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:15,199 really fascinating experience for me to sort of step into something that has you know, 46 00:03:15,199 --> 00:03:19,400 obviously it's evolved far past the time that I was most plugged into it, 47 00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:22,199 and because of that, I got to see, you know, as 48 00:03:22,199 --> 00:03:25,080 an overall package, top to bottom, as a tour, it obviously represents 49 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,520 a lot of what has been rising to the top in heavy music lately, 50 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,039 you know, the Next Gen tour and I think, you know, whether 51 00:03:31,039 --> 00:03:35,520 you like the bands on it or not, it as a really encapsulating kind 52 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,719 of case study that might end up being remembered as like this tour is where 53 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,840 popular heavy music was at in you know, twenty twenty four. I mean 54 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,280 that's kind of being the been the case for bringing me tours a lot in 55 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,120 the past when you look back to you know, their massive twenty eleven tour 56 00:03:50,159 --> 00:03:53,280 when it was them Parkway Drive Architects, dev wes Prada like they they they 57 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:58,560 the has always been about that kind of like addressing the state of this is 58 00:03:58,599 --> 00:04:00,960 what is going on right now? Yeah, the state of the scene if 59 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,400 you will to someone else, but yeah, And I went in with that 60 00:04:04,479 --> 00:04:08,639 with a total sense of like academic curiosity, you know. I'd heard that 61 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,680 their recent live shows had been good, you know, Elliott Download said that 62 00:04:11,599 --> 00:04:14,599 that was a really good performance, and I was curious as to how, 63 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,160 you know, other things would be received. Stack Dress the band. I 64 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:23,000 guess it was nice to see on the bill because they are the thing closest 65 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,480 to I guess us at the moment where we come from as a podcast. 66 00:04:27,079 --> 00:04:29,439 The trade off for that is, you know, you fear for them a 67 00:04:29,439 --> 00:04:32,319 little bit because they seemed to me like a band who are best suited to 68 00:04:32,399 --> 00:04:38,199 kind of pop off in small venues, and like I saw them opening in 69 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,600 an academy size venue a couple of years ago. I think it was a 70 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,920 funeral for a friend and it was okay, and this was an arena, 71 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,680 you know, bigger again, but I thought for that slot they actually did 72 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,959 perfectly well. It's still a case of like their sound with all that sharp 73 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:57,279 odd edges, is like not perfectly suited to something like that, And you 74 00:04:57,319 --> 00:04:59,839 know, they're the act of the four on this tour who kind of sung 75 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,879 felt the most muddied. I guess in that regard, nothing really came through 76 00:05:02,879 --> 00:05:06,519 apart from clean at the very end, but there was energy and they were 77 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:11,759 very up for it, and they clearly you know, there were people in 78 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,800 the crowd who knew them and were up for it as well, and it 79 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,759 was just quite nice to hear some like proper post hardcore ahead of like anything 80 00:05:18,759 --> 00:05:20,759 else, you know, and again, you know, kind of strange way, 81 00:05:20,759 --> 00:05:24,480 it made me wonder, like what would someone like see Uspace Cowboy do 82 00:05:24,759 --> 00:05:29,079 with a stage like this if they were sort of given that same opportunity. 83 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,439 Cassiette comes on, who, to put things very bluntly, I have only 84 00:05:33,439 --> 00:05:38,199 heard name dropped by people who just don't seem to think the things are cool 85 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:43,439 that I think are cool right as a set, I have certainly heard and 86 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,720 seen worse. But her logo looks like it should be Cyber Dog in Camden, 87 00:05:47,879 --> 00:05:53,120 and I quite enjoyed the kind of brain dead gabber energy it had at 88 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,639 bits of it, although her you know, non committal to like gabba dancing 89 00:05:57,079 --> 00:06:00,120 was pitiful. I don't want you pretending to look cool and composed. I 90 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,439 want you flailing your limbs like you're a German in nineteen ninety five. But 91 00:06:02,519 --> 00:06:04,279 you know, it was all right. But like I just I think my 92 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:09,560 thing with stuff like Cassieer is I just don't quite understand what the aim or 93 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:15,600 the audience is because it's it's essentially just vapid pop where she screams. I've 94 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,079 tried through so many of these acts coming through and I'm just like, I'll 95 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:23,000 just go listen to pop music, like it's like, what that's my takeaway? 96 00:06:23,519 --> 00:06:29,399 Alternate even name only. But but you've alienated yourself from the actual mainstream 97 00:06:29,439 --> 00:06:31,480 by you know, screaming and stuff. So it's it's not one thing or 98 00:06:31,519 --> 00:06:35,040 the other. And so it's the kind of career where you're making pop music, 99 00:06:35,639 --> 00:06:40,480 but the endgame of it is seemingly to be third on an arena bill 100 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,000 to you know, still heavier bands and you like bring me the horizon for 101 00:06:44,079 --> 00:06:46,279 you know, the rest of time. So I can't say it getting further 102 00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:48,639 than that. So I don't get it, you know, like your face 103 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:54,120 down, Anne Marie, Okay, it just seems like a useless slice of 104 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,160 the Venn diagram. It is very funny, obviously after everything that was said 105 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,199 on the T ANDM Award Show at the end of last year that my first 106 00:07:00,199 --> 00:07:04,800 gig of twenty twenty four should end up being seeing bad Omens, but they 107 00:07:05,079 --> 00:07:11,079 were the support act I was most curious about because obviously they are annointed ones. 108 00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:14,399 I wanted to see it in action, particularly as we've said about it 109 00:07:14,399 --> 00:07:17,360 being seeming like a kind of us phenomenon up to this point. But there 110 00:07:17,399 --> 00:07:21,920 are signs that this upcoming year might be when bad Omens like really happens here 111 00:07:23,319 --> 00:07:28,720 and again, going into this with as like objective academica mindset as possible you 112 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,680 might be expected me to, you know, really lay into this. There 113 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,160 is you know, there's there's another band who's often compared to bad Omens. 114 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:38,040 The one time I have seen them, I went into it with this same 115 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,480 kind of academic mindset of like, let's see what you got. In that 116 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,920 case. I cannot say it was entirely you know, like you know, 117 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,120 not in part due to the environment they were in, admittedly, but that 118 00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:55,600 was genuinely dreadful. This what I saw as something where watching it work on 119 00:07:55,759 --> 00:08:00,839 people, it made sense to me why it was working. The people who 120 00:08:00,839 --> 00:08:03,120 were there like popping off for it, and I'd have to say it's probably 121 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,240 one of the best reactions I have seen for an arena main support band, 122 00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:15,240 like it's it's obviously happening. It is just shouting networkor with then sad pop 123 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,920 parts that are like White Weekend or something like it's really obvious what the lines 124 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,560 between the elements are. But you know, for the generation who have grown 125 00:08:22,639 --> 00:08:26,439 up with those things as they're kind of primary reference points, it obviously works 126 00:08:26,439 --> 00:08:31,480 like Gangbusters, and people were genuinely reacting to the songs, like not just 127 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,120 screaming at Noah or whatever, but like, you know, while they're not 128 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,279 for me, they do clearly have some choruses and some songs that have made 129 00:08:37,279 --> 00:08:41,720 a mark on people. And it was really slickly pulled off, like they 130 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,360 have a genuine production themselves, like it's a light show. Their mosh caulls 131 00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:48,519 were coming up on the scream and all that kind of shit. There was 132 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,240 nothing about them that looked like it didn't look at home in an arena, 133 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,120 which in itself is kind of impressive. The inverse was actually the thing that 134 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,159 kind of jumped out of me in terms of like what wasn't there because it 135 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:05,120 was so machine like in that it was like, yeah, it was clearly 136 00:09:05,159 --> 00:09:09,080 such a well oiled, well practiced thing. They kept all leaving the stage 137 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,559 after literally every single song. It was really weird, like there was no 138 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,679 sense at all of like, oh that song's finished, band organically, you 139 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,000 know, kick into the next thing or whatever. No spontaneity of one thing 140 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,480 lead to another. It was so weird saying like every single support every single 141 00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:28,159 song of a support slot, even like being treated like the first song of 142 00:09:28,159 --> 00:09:30,759 an encore, and that they all left and then came back like the other 143 00:09:30,799 --> 00:09:35,440 guys on stage are adding absolutely nothing. There is one song that was the 144 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:41,120 most egregious health ripoff I have ever heard, like literally down to the vocal 145 00:09:41,159 --> 00:09:43,559 effect, just a health song, and it threw me so hard for a 146 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,480 loop when it came on. And it's got millions more plays than all of 147 00:09:46,519 --> 00:09:50,240 health songs, So there might be some legal grounds there. When they wander 148 00:09:50,279 --> 00:09:54,559 off, are they having like you know, music and that atmospheric interview electerally 149 00:09:54,639 --> 00:09:56,279 it's playing in between them? Is it just walk off and come back on? 150 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,919 Mostly it's just sort of the lights go down and then they come back. 151 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,080 You know, it's not like an extended, you know, three minute 152 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,559 absence obviously having something to like see it all together whilst they're wandering off stage, 153 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,720 Like not not entirely, no, it's just sort of like just kept 154 00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:13,919 being like where's he going? What does he need to get off the stage? 155 00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:16,840 But you know, my main problem with bad Omens isn't really even their 156 00:10:16,879 --> 00:10:22,440 songs or whatever. It's just that it feels so much like a computer has 157 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,879 spat out the result of an input of modern metalcore band with twenty twenties pop 158 00:10:26,919 --> 00:10:33,000 elements, Like it's really competently performed but it's just devoid of personality. And 159 00:10:33,039 --> 00:10:35,320 you know, someone I was with afterwards said like, don't you just want 160 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,360 to develop a cult like obsession with this six out of ten at best band? 161 00:10:37,879 --> 00:10:43,399 But it was it was obviously very assuredly delivered, you know, for 162 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,480 that audience. And yeah, as much as I'd like to say otherwise, 163 00:10:46,519 --> 00:10:50,480 it did feel like watching a band in an ascendency. But you know, 164 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:56,840 seeing a band put on a really slick, professional pop metal core show but 165 00:10:56,919 --> 00:11:00,559 with no personality, it did set the stage really well for Bring Me the 166 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,360 Horizon to follow and kind of show how it is actually kind of done, 167 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:09,440 because, like I said, I went into this tentatively positive, right, 168 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,519 Like I was looking really to like have a great time at least with the 169 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,799 songs I have loved for a long time, and otherwise just enjoy a big 170 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,679 arena production show. And you know, a lot of talk has gone to 171 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,120 the production on this run maybe similar to what they had it download perhaps to 172 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,320 my understanding, is it the greatest production ever? It was very good. 173 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,279 I'm just saying I've seen more than one person call it that, and I'm 174 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,080 like, can we grow up? I think it's I think it's the greatest 175 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:39,919 production that I have seen a metalcore band put on, aside from perhaps a 176 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,600 Parkway drive. Yeah, yeah, who again, it must be said I 177 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,480 have not seen Parkway in their arena filling years. I'm thinking back some way 178 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,080 in terms of like visuals rather than just lots of fire. It was like 179 00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:54,399 a big, high budget production jump. Maybe you know, things in Bringley's 180 00:11:54,440 --> 00:12:01,080 realm aren't always touching for a number of reason, and so I'm really glad 181 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,879 I end up going in the end, you know, considering my thought was 182 00:12:03,879 --> 00:12:05,799 to basically grab tickets if there are any left, like a week or two 183 00:12:05,799 --> 00:12:09,559 ago, even if they're you know, not in my favorite era, ticking 184 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,960 bring me off my list. While they are like you know, entering that, 185 00:12:13,399 --> 00:12:18,279 while they are like very much in their pomp as like a truly massive 186 00:12:18,279 --> 00:12:20,720 arena band, it was highly impressive. It's talking about the production. The 187 00:12:20,759 --> 00:12:26,120 first like handful of songs amusingly to me, the stage basically look like a 188 00:12:26,159 --> 00:12:30,240 Creator show. Like there was like crazy graphics or anything. Yeah, it 189 00:12:30,279 --> 00:12:33,080 was just like a vaguely religious backdrop like they're at a church and some fire, 190 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,120 right, Yeah, And I was like, yeah, this is cool, 191 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,120 but it's it's a Creator show it, but I kind of I admired 192 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,879 that like no nonsense approach at the start of it. You know, they 193 00:12:41,919 --> 00:12:45,559 kind of they did let the performance itself kind of do a decent amount of 194 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:50,720 the lifting to begin with, and those like first few songs dark Side to 195 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,679 open, which I said when we spoke about kool Aid is I think that's 196 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,759 the single that like I almost missed it being released, like it totally like 197 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,919 passed me by and barely just coming out. But to hear that like opening 198 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,720 the set and getting a really great response was like a bit of a wake 199 00:13:05,799 --> 00:13:09,480 up call. And then immediately after that the first like oh yeah, kind 200 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,320 of moment of the night Empire let them sing that's cool to drop like and 201 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,120 actually like heavy hit her off paternal that one that is like, yeah, 202 00:13:16,159 --> 00:13:18,399 big riff again going in. I still think it's mad that, you know, 203 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,879 we didn't get sleep Walking, didn't get House of Wolves or anything, 204 00:13:22,879 --> 00:13:26,120 but you know, getting Empire second was a lovely moment. And then the 205 00:13:26,159 --> 00:13:31,440 sixth song after his first run was kool Aid and again throughout it, you 206 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,799 know, this must have been at least kind of mostly new from the festival 207 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,159 run they did last year, because it was so new album centric, they 208 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,000 had this like obviously they're in like their video game era, right, like 209 00:13:41,039 --> 00:13:46,279 that's the whole stick. And they've got this character Eve on the screens talking 210 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,320 like she's from like a Dead Space game or something like you know, hello 211 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,840 everyone, you've got to strap in whatever, and the dialogue is like pretty 212 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,399 cringe a lot of the time, like it is bringing the horizon. It's 213 00:13:54,399 --> 00:13:58,559 a lot of like hello, we're here to fucking rock your world or whatever, 214 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,600 and at time it's a bit of the screen. It's a bit like 215 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,120 you're standing in the room before you get on a theme park ride where you 216 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,440 have to pretain you're like boarding a spaceship. But kool Aid hits the Sick 217 00:14:07,519 --> 00:14:15,440 song and this huge fucking like rotting, decaying angel thing like breaks through the 218 00:14:15,519 --> 00:14:18,440 backdrop of the stage on the screen with this like three D effect because it 219 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,399 like curved round the stage, and you know, you hear that story about 220 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,399 like the people who watched the first ever like recorded moving image of the train 221 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:28,919 coming towards them and how they all like screamed because they thought they were going 222 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,240 to die. If you showed them this, they would have spontaneously combusted. 223 00:14:33,399 --> 00:14:37,399 Like it was seriously cool. There was a part in the middle which essentially 224 00:14:37,399 --> 00:14:41,480 acted as like an advertisement slash assurance for the new record, because they were 225 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,840 like, yeah, it's coming, and they played like a bunch of snippets 226 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,600 of like unreleased songs, and then they got people they were apparently recording a 227 00:14:48,639 --> 00:14:52,639 gang vocal that will be on the album, where they got the whole crowd 228 00:14:52,639 --> 00:14:54,519 to like scream along and repeat a word. So that was like a little 229 00:14:54,639 --> 00:14:58,639 fucking interlude in the middle, and you know, the cool aid like the 230 00:14:58,679 --> 00:15:01,720 songs like that. You know, obviously it's the post Human tour, and 231 00:15:01,759 --> 00:15:05,240 it was very much focused. They got six singles out from this new thing, 232 00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:07,559 so they have to play all those and then there was about four from 233 00:15:07,559 --> 00:15:09,039 the first one as well, so that's like a bit a bit more than 234 00:15:09,039 --> 00:15:13,799 half of the set covered some of them, like I don't think there's much 235 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,120 saving die for you, even if it is slightly less obnoxious than on record, 236 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,799 doing the acoustic version of Strangers where they all come together to kind of 237 00:15:22,799 --> 00:15:26,759 stand in the middle. I don't think bring me or a band meant to 238 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,159 sit in a sad little drum circle together like they're the script. Like Matt 239 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,480 looks so sad in the middle with a like pathetic little acoustic drum kit. 240 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,080 But that effect I just mentioned that of, like, you know, some 241 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:41,039 of these singles have had of kind of like passing through my brain like kind 242 00:15:41,039 --> 00:15:46,000 of production line slop or whatever, or in other cases being outright annoying. 243 00:15:46,919 --> 00:15:48,480 This really made it clear to me that a lot of that is to do 244 00:15:48,519 --> 00:15:52,559 with this studio sound, because in front of me with a crowd singing along, 245 00:15:52,879 --> 00:15:58,120 I found myself a lot more swept up in dark Side or Lost or 246 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:02,200 Parasite Eve than I expected. And so when they are then playing the songs 247 00:16:02,279 --> 00:16:06,000 I do fucking love you know, can you feel my heart? Shadow Moses, 248 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,759 they're dropping at like the end of like the first third of the set, 249 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:15,159 thrown like they felt really amazing. Olie sounds really strong with the screams 250 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,000 like some guttur all noises coming out of that boy. The melodic vocals, 251 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,399 particularly on the new songs, obviously there's a degree of like effects on his 252 00:16:22,559 --> 00:16:25,600 voice and everything, and he kept saying like, oh, my voice is 253 00:16:25,639 --> 00:16:27,039 nearly going. I needed to help me out, and then proceeding to sing 254 00:16:27,159 --> 00:16:33,440 pitch perfectly. But diamonds aren't forever. The one nod to the really disgusting 255 00:16:33,519 --> 00:16:36,480 days. I was annoyed because Ollie was like, we're going to play an 256 00:16:36,519 --> 00:16:37,360 old song, and he's like, what one do you want? Pray for 257 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:41,480 plagues? They It's like, all right, coward fucking do it. But 258 00:16:41,519 --> 00:16:45,200 Diamonds, you know you'll take. They've been bringing Noah from bad Omens out 259 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:51,080 for Antivist every night, but seemingly for the first time last night, Yeah, 260 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,000 they brought Ali Appleyard out to do Diamonds and so the two of them 261 00:16:53,039 --> 00:16:59,080 together just a big ball of aggressive energy on that. Yeah. Again, 262 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,639 you know, to be fair to them and settlers choices, like clearly most 263 00:17:00,639 --> 00:17:06,799 people are there for the posts and paternal material. In terms of response the 264 00:17:06,839 --> 00:17:11,000 songs where they have like really prominent guests on like the recent lot, it 265 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:15,519 is a case of them like basically playing a track for those parts with like 266 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,079 some kind of representation on screen, which, particularly in the case of Amen, 267 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:26,519 was mental because they had this Daryl Palumbo face on screen that it looked 268 00:17:26,519 --> 00:17:29,319 a bit like the bit in Twin Peaks when Josie is trapped in the door 269 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,759 toob like it was really fucking weird and ugly. But again, the chorus 270 00:17:32,759 --> 00:17:36,440 of that song like really goes off. That's like one of the best of 271 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,480 their like human tracks. I was expecting a wall of young bloods, like 272 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,960 when Baby Men will do that Sabaton song, but we were spared that King 273 00:17:42,039 --> 00:17:47,039 Slayer. They've got like you know, fox Mask girls going ape shit on 274 00:17:47,079 --> 00:17:48,559 the screen doing a dance routine. And to be fair, even when that 275 00:17:48,599 --> 00:17:52,559 song, that chorus being like on track live, that song live, it's 276 00:17:52,599 --> 00:17:57,480 so fucking crazy energetic that it is just like a proper blast in terms of 277 00:17:57,599 --> 00:18:00,319 carry you in it on that one, Like yeah, it's just the drum 278 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,680 and based tempos with it. In terms of like obviously a lack of Jordan 279 00:18:03,759 --> 00:18:08,319 Fish. I never saw them with him, so I didn't notice it per 280 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,319 se. It sounded great. They've got like an extra guitar guy doing some 281 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:18,079 backing vocals that I presume were his before. Yeah, yeah, minimal difference 282 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:22,599 live at least. I've never I've never quite fully got there with like backing 283 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,039 dancers at a metal show, but Sexy Hazmat Suits was quite funny. And 284 00:18:26,039 --> 00:18:29,599 then they had this like during the encore break, they had this like sort 285 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,880 of you know, self indulging nostalgic video of like clips of bringing Horrizon all 286 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,400 down the ages, you know, the famous the videos and the famous clips 287 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,200 like Ollie jumping on cold place table, which took me back to that being 288 00:18:41,279 --> 00:18:45,039 covered on the show all you know, the way back then. But I 289 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,559 was thinking about, like, you know, around the kind of that's the 290 00:18:47,599 --> 00:18:49,240 spirit days. There was a little bit of people feeling like that they'd been 291 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,759 short changed from bringing me arena headlines because they were doing these like short seventy 292 00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:56,960 minute sets or whatever, and here they did like a full, you know, 293 00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,480 hour and forty minutes. Yeah, with a really high budget production, 294 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,240 a set list full of songs people love, even with more than half it 295 00:19:04,279 --> 00:19:07,359 being songs from the last five years. I do think, you know, 296 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:14,200 you have to go. Yeah, that is definitely a proper arena headlining festival 297 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,119 headlining show. Like if anyone was still doubting that at this stage, it 298 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:19,960 feels like, you know, obviously, but was it like nine years and 299 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,400 one month ago was their first arena show at that famous Wembley thing, Yeah, 300 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,480 which I was really jealous about pople going into it when they showed they 301 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:27,720 could do it at that and that show was amazing, But it was Yeah, 302 00:19:27,759 --> 00:19:30,759 the kind of the ones following that where it kind of felt I was 303 00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:33,559 like, why is this not as good as what you did at Wembley? 304 00:19:33,599 --> 00:19:37,480 And yeah, it feels like the last sort of twelve months between download and 305 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:42,960 then this have like kind of definitively answered that that sort of all points East 306 00:19:44,039 --> 00:19:47,880 questioning, you know that existed for a couple of years before that, of 307 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,279 people going, oh, bring me actually that big or capable. It looked 308 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,599 borderline sold out, like all the tears were rammed, and it was Liverpool, 309 00:19:55,599 --> 00:19:57,279 which always when there's both a Liverpool and a Manchester date, Liverpool was 310 00:19:57,279 --> 00:20:00,960 always going to slightly suffer in terms of ticket sales. It was one of 311 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,119 the last shows to get anywhere near sold out or anything. But you know, 312 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,279 they basically did it. I thought it was a really great show. 313 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,119 And this is coming from someone who thinks there their creative masterpiece record is one 314 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:15,359 they didn't play anything off, and who has had a strained relationship with the 315 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,759 recent material. Maybe twenty twenty four is the year I get back into bring 316 00:20:18,759 --> 00:20:26,200 me. Who knows new music primarily comes from sort of similar lanes ahead of 317 00:20:26,319 --> 00:20:27,920 their arena at all, which I have to say I've not really kept tabs 318 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,160 on this one in terms of like is this one selling well? Is this 319 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,799 one I really big? I don't know. I need to do because I 320 00:20:33,799 --> 00:20:36,400 want to look at getting it a tokeet for London, so I need to 321 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,200 actually look at what the state of that is. Yeah, but Enter Shikari 322 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:45,000 and Fever through through three have released a song ahead of that. It's called 323 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,400 Losing My Grip. It's it's an Enchicari song featuring Jason Butler, but he 324 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:53,400 is Fever and they've described this as like a kind of drummond bass punk song. 325 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,559 What struck me listening to this was just a kind of giggly feeling of 326 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:02,400 if you don't like ni, if they get on your nerves, this song 327 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,079 must be a nightmare. This is them out their mode, like yeah, 328 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:11,839 their most obnoxious kind of like big womping bass and Row doing his like like 329 00:21:12,039 --> 00:21:15,559 rhyming couplets and all of this sort of stuff. I had fun with this, 330 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,559 like I've seen if you were really give this a bit of a kick, 331 00:21:18,559 --> 00:21:21,680 and I'm like having it's a bitch, like a big kind of arena 332 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:27,279 pumping like pop song for them with just Jason Butler doing his like Hamilton Butler 333 00:21:27,559 --> 00:21:32,720 like, yeah, I don't really like this. I think it's it's sort 334 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,000 of the electronic mix of elements is less fun this time than kind of unpleasant, 335 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,920 Like the main riff is this sort of weird plinky plonky attitude horrible thing 336 00:21:41,519 --> 00:21:45,200 it's like, and Shikari doing almost like a Ramstein type tempo out of like 337 00:21:45,799 --> 00:21:48,559 spare bits and bobs that they found, like there's I don think there's a 338 00:21:48,599 --> 00:21:53,240 real chorus in there. It's bizarrely kind of stilted in tempo and momentum for 339 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:59,640 a band who are best at like flying but I did I remember, you 340 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,920 know, back before Kiss for the Whole World came out, they were releasing 341 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,880 like some standalone singles like that one with Orgasm that came out, and at 342 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,519 the time we're a bit like, I'm not wholly sure about this, and 343 00:22:08,519 --> 00:22:11,440 then the album came out and it was great, and so with stuff like 344 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:17,160 this, I'm just like experiment with less good ideas off of the album's fine. 345 00:22:17,599 --> 00:22:18,680 It's sort of thing where if you had told me a couple of years 346 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,400 ago that Shakhari and Jason Butler were doing your collab, I would have a 347 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:29,400 lot higher expectations, mainly on Jason Butler's part than Chakhari's part, but I 348 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,960 had fun enough of this. Yes, another new song in the metalcore kind 349 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:40,759 of realm comes from a band called invent Animate. It's called Sleepless. This 350 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,240 band weren't on my radar until last year ish when suddenly they released an album 351 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,079 and we had a few people in our comments going like, oh, you 352 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:52,319 haven't reviewed the invent Animate album. It's the best heavy album of the year, 353 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:53,680 et cetera. And I went, he was this and I checked it 354 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,680 out and I had no feelings on it whatsoever. This is the first thing 355 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,240 that has been released, I'd think, after you know, that album has 356 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,480 come out, So I thought, this is the opportunity for us to go 357 00:23:03,519 --> 00:23:06,359 like, hey, like, what is our take on this? Like decently 358 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:12,200 popular new band, and aside from them having one of the worst does not 359 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:18,599 roll off the name fucking tongue band names I've ever heard after like invent Animates, 360 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,920 what this is just a total shrug from me. I'm afraid, Uh, 361 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,960 this feels like a band completely out of time, Like this you you've 362 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,640 plucked this from like the early twenty ten's of the whole gent scene, Like 363 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,680 this is so of that era, even down to the name invent Anime. 364 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:40,160 This to me screams you know, when it was like circles and textures and 365 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,559 all of those, all of those bands that again I quite like a lot 366 00:23:42,559 --> 00:23:48,640 of that stuff, but Melkorn and have Music's moved on well beyond that, 367 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,240 and this feels just and there's like a Genti riff in this, which I'm 368 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,519 like, I've heard that riff so many times. It's like the like really 369 00:23:56,519 --> 00:24:00,079 like sort of scarto like one and it just yeah, and the core or 370 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,440 this is completely flat. I was like, I don't think this is you 371 00:24:02,519 --> 00:24:07,400 know, terrible. It just it's just another gent metical band to me, 372 00:24:07,559 --> 00:24:11,440 Yeah, I just I just hear nothing interesting at all. Like even for 373 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,880 the talking points about what this is, it's just a total shrug of well, 374 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,759 it's a medical song. Like I'm genuinely I'm a bit stumped as to 375 00:24:18,799 --> 00:24:22,839 what people are seeing in this because there's not really a big clear selling point 376 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:26,920 like a spirit box or a sleep token or whatever. It's just like the 377 00:24:26,039 --> 00:24:29,359 riff, like you said, is that it's a non entity, like no 378 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,480 character or specific impact at all. The chorus is alright, I'm just a 379 00:24:33,519 --> 00:24:37,240 bit nonplusters to what the big drawer is. It reminds me of when people 380 00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:40,599 were like really trying to make North Lane happen in the twenty tens, and 381 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,160 it was like, well, this is just boring tech metalcre with no real 382 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:47,759 charisma beyond that, and we're still doing it. North Flank had choruses and 383 00:24:48,599 --> 00:24:51,160 bigger moments in them. I know you discribed, but I always felt like 384 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,839 Northank, you know, had like Quantum Flux has like that really big chorus 385 00:24:53,839 --> 00:24:57,240 and masquerade like they got it with North Flane, but that that's why they 386 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,480 are. This is just another one of those bad It's just that should have 387 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,279 been around ten years ago and it would have been like they would have sorted 388 00:25:04,319 --> 00:25:07,839 in just as well. And I just feel this being is absolutely nothing new 389 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,200 to the table. I like say spirit Box or Loaf, you know, 390 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,279 those or bands who are the better bands of this modern genty metal core that 391 00:25:15,319 --> 00:25:18,920 are doing something new of it. This is just doing that thing to a 392 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,680 not bad soundard but again very like what you were saying about bad Omens and 393 00:25:23,759 --> 00:25:27,519 that it's so work like, it's so machine like, it's just got no 394 00:25:27,839 --> 00:25:33,400 spark to it. Yeah, but I mean bad Omens has a like the 395 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,960 obviously the pop elements that they're drawing in electronic elements, they are very now 396 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,799 ye Whereas you know, people seem jazzed on this, and it wouldn't be 397 00:25:41,839 --> 00:25:44,559 the first time that the popularity of a new metalcore band has you know, 398 00:25:44,599 --> 00:25:48,839 bemused us. But even just in terms of like what is the specific cell 399 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,400 on this, this just like registers absolutely nothing with me. So it's a 400 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,160 bit heavier like than to some people that they go on They go with that, 401 00:25:56,279 --> 00:26:00,759 but I'm with you, I don't get it. But to me, 402 00:26:00,839 --> 00:26:04,640 I've already would have liked this ten years ago, but I shrugged at it 403 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:10,960 ten years ago, shrugging. That's what I liked North Lane, I liked 404 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:15,960 Circle. Yeah, pick any band of that era that they're all names have 405 00:26:17,079 --> 00:26:19,519 escape me, you know, born of anything like that. I liked that 406 00:26:19,559 --> 00:26:22,480 stuff, and this is, you know, just more of that. But 407 00:26:22,519 --> 00:26:27,759 I don't see why it's particularly worthy of excitement in twenty twenty four. Yeah, 408 00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:30,640 I guess we'll see, you know, what happens with invent Anime and 409 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,920 if it goes any further or whatever. But currently, I you know, 410 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:38,400 the popularity of this one is largely perplexing me and passing us by. Green 411 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:44,480 Day have announced that their Savior's tour will very much funnily feature them playing two 412 00:26:44,519 --> 00:26:47,920 other albums in their entirety. Instead, they're going to be playing I Guess 413 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:52,000 the thirtieth anniversary of Dookie and the twentieth of American Idiot, which totals up 414 00:26:52,039 --> 00:26:55,279 to I guess a bit over an hour and a half of music. Luckily, 415 00:26:55,319 --> 00:26:57,720 I suppose Green Day play for about fucking three hours. Yeah, yeah, 416 00:26:59,279 --> 00:27:03,200 yeah, they so they will fit in other stuff as well. Again, 417 00:27:03,559 --> 00:27:07,119 you make tough for those haos. Yeah. I know. The thing 418 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:08,160 with this is you go, oh sweet, Dookie's half an hour, but 419 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,440 when they play it, it'll be fifteen minutes long. Which is the problem 420 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,599 with this up. I mean, obviously, you know, go and and 421 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,720 see these songs. A lot of great songs are going to be seen. 422 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,000 There's a lot of there's a lot of good stuff there. It is just 423 00:27:22,039 --> 00:27:29,200 funny, right back to metalcore where all the ship shows happen. It's been 424 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:37,799 a week. Sleep Token have wiped their social media accounts, particularly their Instagram 425 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:41,200 and everything, and there's a little statement in their place which says nothing lasts 426 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:49,119 forever. This unfortunately comes hot on the heels of some fucking awful antics going 427 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:55,480 down doing from weird, obsessive, creepy story some some you know, obsessive 428 00:27:55,480 --> 00:28:03,839 Sleep Token fans try to find who they are and we're leaking personal details onto 429 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:08,119 the internet. And then I don't know, if this thing had happened without 430 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,200 that a few days before, it'd be like, oh cool, a new 431 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:15,079 era of sleep That's what bands do, right, they delete the exercial media. 432 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,519 Probably even still, that's probably what this is. Like. Do I 433 00:28:17,559 --> 00:28:19,839 think Sleep Token have just broken up? No? No, I don't really, 434 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,519 they're you know, they're riding too much of a high. But the 435 00:28:23,559 --> 00:28:30,680 timing of this happening within days of like fans crossing a line and you know, 436 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:36,759 personally compromising the people involved. Is this a question of, like, 437 00:28:37,279 --> 00:28:41,640 have sleep Tokens fans pressured them out of existence? I think it's gonna be 438 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,920 a case of because as similar thing has happened to bad Omens, as we've 439 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,400 talked about it, they've like guy deleted all this stuff. Oh the whole 440 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,599 band have now every single member is wiped their social media presence because they are 441 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:56,079 they like fans are just crossing lines. And I think I think this is 442 00:28:56,279 --> 00:29:00,680 accommodation of a like pr stunt of like like a new year of see whatever. 443 00:29:00,759 --> 00:29:03,440 But I do think when they come back, you're going to see again 444 00:29:03,559 --> 00:29:07,759 a much reduced social media presence for at least the backing members of the band, 445 00:29:07,759 --> 00:29:12,319 because they are probably tired of having their live stalked by people whose socials, 446 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:17,000 like skills have just evaporated and don't get boundaries. Maybe maybe it's a 447 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,720 warning, you know, it's like we're going away and we're going to come 448 00:29:18,799 --> 00:29:22,119 up with a new era at this time. But remember that we did it 449 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,880 within days of up being fucking freaks, and don't do that to us again. 450 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:26,839 And if that is the case, then you know, fair play to 451 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:30,960 him. Spirit Box. Here is the big man that we spoke about being 452 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,720 absent before. Spirit Box are apparently in the studio with one Jordan Fish, 453 00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:38,680 formerly of Bringing the Horizon. And I saw this and you know, again, 454 00:29:38,799 --> 00:29:44,400 I don't know exactly why Jordan Fish left. Bring me if it is 455 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,279 a case he hasn't left to join another band at least immediately, right, 456 00:29:47,759 --> 00:29:52,720 if it is a case of like he's done with the whole world touring, 457 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:56,000 you know, thing at the moment, I think a you know, rather 458 00:29:56,039 --> 00:29:59,799 than a new creative project, and it being a kind of a producer role 459 00:30:00,079 --> 00:30:03,960 for bands seems like a really natural role for him to slip into because that 460 00:30:04,039 --> 00:30:08,160 was, of course what he's most famous for in regards to his relationship with 461 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,000 Bring Me. So I saw this and went, yeah, I feel like 462 00:30:12,039 --> 00:30:15,960 that seems like a perfect match of like, who's the sort of guy you 463 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,279 could really like bring out? Because spirit walks away has been doing a bit 464 00:30:18,319 --> 00:30:22,119 more of the electronic stuff, So who's the guy you want to turn to 465 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:23,759 to really get the most out of that? Get Jordan Fish in this feels 466 00:30:23,759 --> 00:30:27,480 like a natural Yeah, I don't. I don't think he's like joining Spirit 467 00:30:27,519 --> 00:30:30,200 Box. I think I've seen a few people say is he going to join 468 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,759 them? On? Like, I don't think so, but as a producer 469 00:30:32,799 --> 00:30:34,480 for them, perfect makes sense. Yeah, I mean, if that is 470 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,039 a path that he decides to go down, you can absolutely see Jordan Fish 471 00:30:38,079 --> 00:30:42,960 in a producer capacity becoming a really you're continuing to be a really influential figure 472 00:30:44,599 --> 00:30:48,759 in kind of the sonic you know, landscape of you know, contemporary metal 473 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,920 and everything. And speaking of producers, Kerry King announced this week that his 474 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,279 upcoming album that were speaking about before has been produced by Josh Wilbur, so, 475 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,599 you know, not anyone who has actually worked on pre Slayer, because 476 00:31:00,599 --> 00:31:02,880 I was expecting it to be honest, to be the guy who did Repentless, 477 00:31:03,279 --> 00:31:06,880 but Josh Wilber is I guess, you know, the things that most 478 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,160 spring to mind are like the latest round of Trivium and Lamb of God Records, 479 00:31:11,359 --> 00:31:15,000 so big, chunky, modern metal stuff. I think. I think 480 00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:18,440 basically what we're expecting from this Kerry King thing is to it to sound like 481 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:23,279 latter day Slayer, but probably with like a scream vocalist or something like that, 482 00:31:23,359 --> 00:31:29,119 rather than like old school, like a slightly more two thousands big American 483 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,920 metal festival version of like what classic Slayer kind of was. And Josh Wilber 484 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,880 certainly sounds like you'd be the kind of guy to line up with that vision. 485 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:42,799 Some people this morning, as we're recording this, headed over to one 486 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:49,079 Patty Walter's Instagram and we're greeted with a message that may have crushed them that 487 00:31:49,799 --> 00:31:56,319 currently music has no place in the current forefront of that dude's life as it 488 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:02,680 is, are on indefinite Hiata God weeps, We'll always have dial tones, 489 00:32:04,799 --> 00:32:07,240 we will always have dial tones, and some of the worst promo picture I've 490 00:32:07,279 --> 00:32:15,200 ever taken by any band ever and equally shocking news my lord, when I 491 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,759 saw this turned up on my Facebook feed and I'd like stop and double take 492 00:32:19,799 --> 00:32:24,720 at it. Winter Sun, all the ef and Winter Sun announced on Facebook 493 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:31,640 this week casually that the time to album is one hundred percent done. If 494 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:37,480 you are not in the no on Winter Sun, let's just say, take 495 00:32:37,519 --> 00:32:42,880 any fucking weight for a tool album and amplify the hilariosity of it and the 496 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:47,519 bullshit of it many times over. It was very funnily pointed out that this 497 00:32:47,559 --> 00:32:52,799 announcement was also accompanied by another crowdfund. I saw that there's that we need 498 00:32:52,839 --> 00:32:55,680 another kickstarter to do something like that. Wait, if the AM's done, 499 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,160 then what Yeah? I think that that's for like, you know, the 500 00:32:59,599 --> 00:33:01,720 pre or a physical deluxe editions, whatever the fuck. In a way, 501 00:33:01,759 --> 00:33:06,680 you know, it's him, you know, being like invest in the thing 502 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:07,920 that you want to see. Yeah, and we will make it, you 503 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:14,200 know. But it's just increasingly funny seing that happen. But this is unbelievable. 504 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,720 I particularly did not see this happening hilariously so soon, because the way 505 00:33:17,759 --> 00:33:23,160 this lunatic genius idiot man works is he has been updating over the past several 506 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:29,759 years that he's been working on about three or four different Winter Sun albums at 507 00:33:29,799 --> 00:33:37,039 once right in his like mega fucking like take rivers Croomo's spreadsheets and amplify them 508 00:33:37,039 --> 00:33:40,240 to some kind of like terminator degree in the amount of like fucking like pro 509 00:33:40,359 --> 00:33:43,759 tools files this man will have in his computer. But he's been like, 510 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,359 yeah, like the Time two album is about seventy percent done, but I've 511 00:33:46,359 --> 00:33:50,160 been working on this other album that's like forty percent done, and everyone's been 512 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:54,279 going, ah, just furnished one of the albums rather than getting eight percent 513 00:33:54,319 --> 00:33:57,799 there and then putting on ice and going like, oh, there's another one, 514 00:33:57,799 --> 00:34:00,640 come and just make one. And that's what I assume would just be 515 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,240 happening for so he is now. But then he just turned up and was 516 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:06,119 like, oh, by the way, Time two is done, you know, 517 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:07,880 give us a bit more money and we'll tell you when it will come 518 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:12,880 out later in the year. And that is fucking crazy news. It does 519 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,159 mean that we will certainly have to get around to that Time One album club 520 00:34:15,159 --> 00:34:22,239 that was yeah, once sons of Foodstars is massive. More of that, 521 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,960 you know, within the next couple of packs. But yeah, or a 522 00:34:25,039 --> 00:34:31,719 hilarious saga perhaps coming to a close before another one inevitably begins right off the 523 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:36,559 back of it. Right here is some fucking excitement. We've got a little 524 00:34:36,559 --> 00:34:38,360 bit of festival news from a couple different places. First up, we're obvious 525 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:45,280 we're going to talk about the Damnation festival announcement because it aside from maybe the 526 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,480 mental one a couple of years ago when they were like, oh yeah, 527 00:34:47,519 --> 00:34:52,840 fucking Pig Destroyer doing proudly that whole you know, Jane do that whole thing 528 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:57,599 that you know, broke fucking extreme metal Twitter for the day. I can't 529 00:34:57,679 --> 00:35:04,519 remember a like single, like one day Damnation announcement that has like ticked so 530 00:35:04,639 --> 00:35:08,480 many boxes for me as this one. This is fucking beautiful and it includes 531 00:35:08,559 --> 00:35:14,280 things that we have directly asked for. It includes things that we didn't think 532 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:19,079 were physically possible. It includes things that are extremely timely for where we have 533 00:35:19,159 --> 00:35:23,639 recently been. Wow, this fucking lineup, I mean, like I think 534 00:35:23,639 --> 00:35:27,000 it was like because it was it was on that morning where they tea they 535 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,280 posted the little of the teaser trailer for it, and it had the boon 536 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,559 Dog Saints up and I was like, hang on a fucking second, boo 537 00:35:32,639 --> 00:35:36,320 from can't be in the country, I swear and your tea and you're doing 538 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:40,599 this. If you've managed to like like Russellers together, then fair fucking player. 539 00:35:40,599 --> 00:35:43,400 And then they roped the announcement. I just looked to him took like, 540 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:45,840 I mean, we'll look at that top line and I was like, 541 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:50,480 I'm that damnation, like don't even matter, Like the restaurant could be toilet 542 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,920 going by this not gonna be and going by damnation standards. But when your 543 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:58,360 top line is and these aren't, your headliners is bleeding through. Doing this 544 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:04,039 is love. This is murderous in full and fucking nails. Damnation could not 545 00:36:04,119 --> 00:36:07,000 have done a better sort of Paul for me. Yeah. Absolutely, in 546 00:36:07,079 --> 00:36:10,400 terms of the top line, I completely agree. And then going down further, 547 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,159 there are things that you may me more than you, but like directly 548 00:36:14,159 --> 00:36:16,480 below them. I actually I think Russian circles are brilliant and gates, yeah, 549 00:36:16,519 --> 00:36:19,760 I've wanted to see them for ages. Well, well, let me 550 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,280 read this whole announcement. We do have as said, none of these are 551 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:27,159 the proper full on headliners yet. But we have Bleeding Through playing This is 552 00:36:27,199 --> 00:36:31,639 Love, This is Murderous in class exclusively in the UK a classic. If 553 00:36:31,639 --> 00:36:35,400 you have heard our special and Bleeding Through we did last year, you know 554 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,320 how passionately we feel about that album and how high it sits in the all 555 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:45,559 time metal classics. We have. The UK return of Fucking Nails is an 556 00:36:45,599 --> 00:36:50,320 exclusive. It's also a you know, we were saying that they don't seem 557 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,440 to have announced any other shows yet in terms of the Nails comeback that's ongoing, 558 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,800 so this is currently the first thing that has been announced to it in 559 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:59,239 the world. We have Russian Circles, we have Gate Creeper, we have 560 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:05,599 the Ruins of Beaver. We have Celeste Ahab Dual, Gillian Carter and Hexas. 561 00:37:05,679 --> 00:37:07,000 Jillian Carter I was not super familiar with, but I know people were 562 00:37:07,079 --> 00:37:09,760 quite excited that I need to check them out because they sound like I would 563 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:14,440 actually quite yeah, like this seems like quite a savvy, cool booking of 564 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,920 like a kind of a newer like scream oh Emo violence type band. Very 565 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:22,000 cool stuff there. Ahab were meant to play last year. I really fucking 566 00:37:22,079 --> 00:37:25,920 wanted them to come back because I've been waiting for that band for so long. 567 00:37:27,159 --> 00:37:30,519 Then they announced a London show in like June, and I was like, 568 00:37:30,559 --> 00:37:32,400 oh, no, are you playing this instead of coming back to dam 569 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,920 Nation where I'm gonna be able to really see you. But here they are 570 00:37:36,199 --> 00:37:39,400 a have a back ruins of Beaver asked I have their last album with like 571 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,039 in my you know, top twenty that year. I fucking love that record, 572 00:37:43,679 --> 00:37:45,239 haven't seen them off the back of it, really excited for that. 573 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:51,840 Celeste are always just standard fantastic live band every time you see them. Duel 574 00:37:52,119 --> 00:37:53,920 for me is one of like the Fly another radar, because I don't think 575 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,960 they're that well known, but I adore that band. They are like that 576 00:37:58,039 --> 00:38:01,760 kind of sort of you know, uh, very very classy, sleek occult 577 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:06,320 melodic kind of rock heavy netle thing featuring fom memals of Doula Budd and the 578 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:10,480 like. Their last album fucking incredible, and they're one of those bands a 579 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:15,000 bit like Maggotheart and the like who only seem to exist in mainland Europe and 580 00:38:15,039 --> 00:38:17,760 like when they come to the UK it's been extremely fleeting. So I've been 581 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:22,119 wanting to see them for a long time and this is an incredible booking for 582 00:38:22,159 --> 00:38:23,480 that. And then as you say, Russian circles, Gate creeper, great 583 00:38:23,519 --> 00:38:28,159 stuff. You know, we said this on the special we've just recorded itself. 584 00:38:28,199 --> 00:38:30,920 But that Nail special we've just done, we were gonna record it two 585 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:35,679 days prior, we had to delay it, and then the morning we actually 586 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,440 recorded it, this announcement went out and we were like, oh, fucking 587 00:38:38,079 --> 00:38:44,280 serendipity, absolutely incredible. So yeah, you gotta remember as well, this 588 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:49,000 is the Bees area that's Nails playing in, Like, yeah, they've got 589 00:38:49,039 --> 00:38:51,159 to have a main stage. Surely enough people are gonna be wanting to see 590 00:38:51,199 --> 00:38:55,639 Nails, but wow, that is gonna be something, and there certainly will 591 00:38:55,679 --> 00:39:01,239 be some firefights. Of course. We also have the Friday headliner of Outbreak 592 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,440 Festival. That is the day that this time has turned into the kind of 593 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,039 the hip hop day. It's Action Bronson, Action Bronson. I do. 594 00:39:07,119 --> 00:39:10,840 I'm not familiar with the Guys catalog at all. I would just say it's 595 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,840 it's kind of interesting this year, how even more than last year, they've 596 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:19,800 really separated well it's two separate tickets exactly, Like I'm not quite sure what 597 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,079 the thinking is there. They've properly gone. Okay, here is like a 598 00:39:22,199 --> 00:39:28,239 hip hop Day essentially is its own event, and then like you know, 599 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,840 typical outbreak the next two days. What do you think about that? Yeah, 600 00:39:30,039 --> 00:39:32,840 I wondered if it's because there was just like a weird kind of divide 601 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:37,280 in the vibes and the cards, so I will separate them out. I 602 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,320 would. I would like to see them just fully just integrate and just kind 603 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:44,079 of alternate between hip hop bands halker bands and not like have a hip hop 604 00:39:44,159 --> 00:39:46,440 day a halfcolled day or whatever. But I mean, currently I've only got 605 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,800 a ticket to the Saturday Sunday of that outbreak, mainly because like we didn't 606 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,960 actually get to discuss the lineup because it announced after we were on our break. 607 00:39:53,039 --> 00:39:57,440 But it's red that the hardcore you know, pairing of days is really 608 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,480 fucking good. Yeah, and they damn head like that. But I'd quite 609 00:40:00,519 --> 00:40:02,800 like see Action Bronson. The few of these songs I've heard always pretty cool, 610 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,760 and he does does a wrestler, I like, he does his entrance 611 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:10,880 theme, so that's a thing of course. But uh yeah, I just 612 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,559 I don't know if I'll be out the Friday, but like that's a big 613 00:40:14,639 --> 00:40:16,480 name to have headline Hip Hop Day for like the size of the thing they've 614 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:21,000 got, so I hope that goes down well. Yeah, And continuing on 615 00:40:21,119 --> 00:40:24,360 the big trendy, popular hardcore stuff Coachella and that was their line up this 616 00:40:24,559 --> 00:40:30,039 week. And it's always interesting seeing basically what bands from the hardcore eily. 617 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:34,440 Yeah, that's the only place apart from a couple of big names like No 618 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,119 I'm Sorry, Deathtones are on there taking back Sunday and they're no doubt is 619 00:40:39,119 --> 00:40:44,559 that reunion shows No doubt reunions. That's pretty fucking wildn't it. Like that's 620 00:40:44,639 --> 00:40:46,960 that's with Gwen right, Like, yeah, full on no doubt playing that 621 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:52,960 wucking something to see. But it's you know, the small hardcore bands is 622 00:40:52,039 --> 00:40:57,320 always I guess what we'd look at as like who's turning up no surprise a 623 00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:00,920 towards the military gun there that makes the most out of sense in the world. 624 00:41:00,079 --> 00:41:02,199 Yeah, they're the band who got the Taco Bell adverts. So they 625 00:41:02,199 --> 00:41:07,960 get to play Coachella. Yeah, and hopefully they will, you know, 626 00:41:07,159 --> 00:41:12,519 get some great crowdsurfing photos of someone like jumping on the head of someone with 627 00:41:12,519 --> 00:41:15,119 a flower crowd or whatever. Weird things normally happen at Coachella. Code Orange 628 00:41:15,199 --> 00:41:21,559 unfortunately had to postpone their upcoming tour for the above record because guitarist dom Landolina 629 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,440 has suffered an injury and they are waiting for him to return to full strength 630 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,440 hopefully to see you know, we'll see Code Orange back on the road in 631 00:41:27,559 --> 00:41:32,880 full capacity sooner rather than later. More grim news, unfortunately is that again. 632 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:37,760 This morning, as we're doing this, the news came that Pitchfork has 633 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:44,320 been largely gutted. It's being merged with GQ under an ownership thing. Half 634 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,679 of the staff has been laid off. I know that Pitchfork are a name 635 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:51,239 that like, there are people out there who I don't agree with, and 636 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,000 I don't think you should be this sort of like vindictive about it, But 637 00:41:54,039 --> 00:41:57,119 there are people out there who are like, yeah, good fuck Pitchfall. 638 00:41:57,159 --> 00:41:59,800 I mean, I don't like Pitchfork, but I don't want to see this, 639 00:42:00,159 --> 00:42:01,800 Like people who they don't want to see people losing their jobs. You 640 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:06,000 don't want to see particularly, I think you don't want to see the cachet 641 00:42:06,159 --> 00:42:09,559 of kind of music journalism and music writing as a you know, a medium 642 00:42:10,159 --> 00:42:15,840 being perpetually kind of you know, gutted and reduced and devalued and turned into 643 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:17,880 a kind of commodity as it is with this. And you know, Pitchfork 644 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,480 for their faults they have, you know, they they fucking write about two 645 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,840 Mold right, like they've reviewed Cobalt Records if one comes along, like they 646 00:42:24,119 --> 00:42:30,760 have done decent amounts to kind of put you know, interesting, strange, 647 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,119 arty, extreme music into the hands of people otherwise. So yeah, you 648 00:42:35,119 --> 00:42:37,239 know, thoughts go into all the you know, the folks at Pitchfork who 649 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:43,280 are being affected by this are then Sevenfold have released their long awaited Fortnite map, 650 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,360 apparently based on the song We Love You, which presumably means it will 651 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:54,239 be an unnavigatable fucking nightmare. And Caliber Corps this week released branded Caliber Corps 652 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:59,119 dog collars, and if the comments on the announcement they're ready to go by, 653 00:42:59,519 --> 00:43:04,320 it's not dogs are going to be used on this for some other purposes. 654 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,320 I don't know what you're talking about. Yeah, would you snap up 655 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:15,000 the Cannibal Corps dog slash someone else? I haven't got dogs, so you 656 00:43:15,039 --> 00:43:19,199 don't know. No, it's got the little fucking butchered the birth baby on 657 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:20,960 as well, So maybe if you put it on your baby, that'd be 658 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,320 hard right. As said, haven't got a question section this week. They 659 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:29,119 will return in the next Hyperblasts full episode. But we do have some news 660 00:43:29,119 --> 00:43:31,280 to tell you about what is going on over on the Patreon this week, 661 00:43:31,519 --> 00:43:36,400 as we alluded to earlier. As we warned last week, the band specials 662 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,039 for twenty twenty four are already underway. It's already happened. Our first one 663 00:43:39,119 --> 00:43:45,119 is ticked Off. It was a special on motherfucking Nails, the band who 664 00:43:45,159 --> 00:43:51,599 defined the twenty tens in hard extreme music, the band who got everyone so 665 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,480 hyped and excited and then got some of that audience pissed off and jaded with 666 00:43:55,559 --> 00:44:00,880 them with how things went towards the end of that decade. But they are 667 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:04,039 back. They're gonna be playing fucking Damnations festival. We apparently got an album 668 00:44:04,079 --> 00:44:08,599 coming soon, and we so decided it was the time to undertake a dissection 669 00:44:09,079 --> 00:44:16,719 of their whole legacy and catalog up to this point. And oh my god, 670 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:22,320 what a fucking band those records. I mean, we did everything else 671 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:27,119 as well, but that the three albums that came out less an hour of 672 00:44:27,199 --> 00:44:31,639 music, the most replayable, addictive shit ever like that, That has been 673 00:44:31,679 --> 00:44:37,000 it for me is the last two weeks have just been slamming those Nails records 674 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:38,559 over and over and like the fact is right there, you know, see 675 00:44:38,599 --> 00:44:42,679 there's let's own music there. How much discussion do we get out of those 676 00:44:42,679 --> 00:44:45,599 amps, because there is so much to them that you can actually pick apart 677 00:44:45,599 --> 00:44:50,840 and dissect and celebrate. And just again you say that I was one of 678 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:52,400 those, you know, kind of jaded now as fans by the end, 679 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:58,519 but like this was just me kind of going it doesn't matter because the music 680 00:44:58,559 --> 00:45:04,760 that we got is just untouchable, ripping on the silent death still, Like 681 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,320 like this week I've just been like playing those songs against I'm like I've got 682 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:12,440 spare thirteen minutes. There you go. Yeah, we speak about all again 683 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:15,159 what those albums represented, what they did for kind of grind and power, 684 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:19,199 violence and the places they took it and how you know, they crossed over 685 00:45:19,199 --> 00:45:22,679 into so many strange, unexpected areas, how everyone rallied behind them as like 686 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:27,639 the de facto hardest band on the planet in a way you rarely ever see 687 00:45:27,639 --> 00:45:31,800 with like anything from anyone genre. We speak about the kind of strange public 688 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:36,800 image they had, like were they actually kind of gate keyp hardcore. You 689 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:40,480 will never be one of us elitists we speak about like press drama and fucking 690 00:45:40,559 --> 00:45:45,039 hit pieces that were published on them and all this kind of stuff that all 691 00:45:45,159 --> 00:45:47,960 factors into you know, again, when you think Nails, what is the 692 00:45:49,079 --> 00:45:52,280 kind of band, the kind of image that pops into your head? And 693 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:59,199 at the end of it, we just look forward to the next chapter of 694 00:45:59,519 --> 00:46:04,280 that story, really happy to have something like that in that level of detail 695 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,840 on again, a comparatively newer band like that put out there into the world. 696 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:13,400 Upcoming, we've actually got the album Clubs episode next. We have, 697 00:46:13,639 --> 00:46:15,960 you know, the last couple months of last year, we kind of had 698 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:20,199 to like you know, really just skidaddle a bit to kind of like put 699 00:46:20,199 --> 00:46:22,119 some of the stuff we were doing together, So album Clubs kind of fell 700 00:46:22,159 --> 00:46:24,400 by the wayside, but they are, of course and be coming back in 701 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:29,559 twenty twenty four. We're reversing the order just for January because January first month 702 00:46:29,599 --> 00:46:32,880 slower. You can see, the releases are building up steam as we go 703 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:39,280 forward. So this upcoming week we are going to have our album club episode, 704 00:46:39,599 --> 00:46:44,119 and then next Friday we are going to have the full January reviews episode, 705 00:46:44,159 --> 00:46:46,519 but album clubs that you were going to be getting in the next few 706 00:46:46,599 --> 00:46:52,599 days are first. I guess it's the first twenty twenties record to make it 707 00:46:52,639 --> 00:46:57,800 onto album club Obviously we've already started in these last two hyper Blast episodes. 708 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:01,079 But Bring Me the Horizon are going to be a big talking point band again 709 00:47:01,199 --> 00:47:06,199 in twenty twenty four with the eventual release of their next post human record, 710 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,719 and the first one, post Human, Survival Horror, did not actually get 711 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,480 a proper review on this podcast. We've like alluded to it a lot in 712 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,119 the last few years, but we weren't up and reviewing at the time. 713 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,440 So we are going to get on record properly going ahead of next Gen. 714 00:47:17,599 --> 00:47:21,920 An assessment of the Survival Horror record, and you know, now a few 715 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,719 years on, like what its impact has been. I guess then to get 716 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:30,039 a bit more true three Inches of Blood Advance and Vanquish. Sam, you 717 00:47:30,119 --> 00:47:32,599 have been saying, what a funny time you've had listened to that for the 718 00:47:32,639 --> 00:47:35,840 first time. I shouldn't have listened to it for the first time in public. 719 00:47:36,079 --> 00:47:37,079 I was on the bus going see the VP for and I put it 720 00:47:37,119 --> 00:47:42,320 on and I just like, I won't say anymore, but it was I 721 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:47,159 was taken a there was an experience. Yeah, what a band in a 722 00:47:47,199 --> 00:47:52,280 way that like, yeah, an album club I was surprised to have seen, 723 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:54,440 you know, hadn't been done according to my records from the punk and 724 00:47:54,519 --> 00:48:00,280 emo end Joyce manner never hung over again. And we said last week about 725 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,159 Dying Fetus Fever sweeping the world very well time for us. Things still come 726 00:48:04,199 --> 00:48:07,320 around in cycles too, because it's also coming up on the ten year anniversary 727 00:48:07,559 --> 00:48:12,519 of a certain hilarious iconic and internet metal culture event from the last decade that 728 00:48:12,559 --> 00:48:15,239 you were in some small way slam part of Oh Yep, what excused? 729 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:19,599 We really need, I guess to talk about the late career masterpiece from Dying 730 00:48:19,639 --> 00:48:24,039 Fetus Reign Supreme. Those are the first four album clubs of twenty twenty four. 731 00:48:24,199 --> 00:48:27,119 We are going to be talking about them this weekend. They're going to 732 00:48:27,159 --> 00:48:30,480 go up shortly after that. Get involved at patron dot com slash that's Non 733 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:34,480 Mattal where you will hear that, where you will hear the Nail Special, 734 00:48:34,519 --> 00:48:36,840 where you can hear the Amazon Chains special with you complete at the end of 735 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,960 last year, all of that good stuff going on over there, thank you 736 00:48:39,079 --> 00:48:45,000 very much for your support. Let's end this hyperblasts with the releases that I 737 00:48:45,039 --> 00:48:49,199 think you know, the first couple weeks of this year were more middling. 738 00:48:49,519 --> 00:48:53,000 This time we have big names fully coming out of the gate here, hitting 739 00:48:53,039 --> 00:48:57,360 the year hot for the first time. It starts with, of course, 740 00:48:57,559 --> 00:49:01,159 none other than Green Day with their new third most important record of their upcoming 741 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:06,280 tour, The Saviors album is out today. As you were hearing this, 742 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:07,599 you probably already heard it before you put us on I don't you. We 743 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:14,840 will talk about that soon. We also have neck Deep releasing a new self 744 00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:22,239 titled record out today. We have Saxon, hell Fire and Damnation. Can 745 00:49:22,519 --> 00:49:25,639 question is this sound amatue? Is hell Comma fire and Damnation? Hell Fire 746 00:49:25,679 --> 00:49:29,199 as one word? Is that how they like to know? It's It's It's 747 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:34,679 it's hell Comma Fire and Damnation. They rule of threes, you know, 748 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:43,159 hell Fire and Damnation weird anyway, Saxon and Saxon they have records of you 749 00:49:43,199 --> 00:49:45,199 know, their later career that I think are really good. They have others 750 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:50,119 that I don't remember anything from. I will I guess see which category this 751 00:49:50,159 --> 00:49:52,599 falls into. Now, this is a newer band, This is I believe 752 00:49:52,599 --> 00:49:57,400 a deaby record upon Stone Dead Mother Moon. This is a new signing to 753 00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:01,000 Century Media. And this is really, you know, kind of slightly hardcore 754 00:50:01,119 --> 00:50:05,159 in kind of feel, but it's melodic death metal. Really. It's like 755 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:08,440 if of the proper gothenberg Heads, if you like old fucking at the Gates 756 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:13,239 in flames, bit of dissection, whatever, here is a new band to 757 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,079 whet your whistle in that regard. Going into you know, sort of sludge 758 00:50:16,119 --> 00:50:21,920 and stonery terrain, we have the band Lord Dying with Clandestine Transcendence. They 759 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,239 have some pretty good stuff in their back catalog. We also have again much 760 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:30,599 more long form stonary slift and Ilion. This is a kind of interesting record 761 00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:35,239 I came into Contact with Funny enough, the band is called Contact with their 762 00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:38,519 K, but their record is called Full Contact with a C. Confusingly, 763 00:50:39,079 --> 00:50:44,679 but basically this is like a kind of like old like trad speed metal type 764 00:50:44,679 --> 00:50:47,639 band, but in space it's like a It's like, really it's like sci 765 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:52,280 fi tech, thrash, voivody type stuff meeting like you know, old school 766 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:57,320 a speed meal. Kind of an interesting mix. Then go into some death 767 00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:00,800 metal. You've got an old name in the form of Master and their name. 768 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:04,280 Their record named Saints Dispelled, and you have a newer name. An 769 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:07,360 Australian band called resin Tomb Cerebral Purgatory. That's kind of some more sort of 770 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:12,719 dissonantly nasty type stuff in your black mal as a man called Vetmod with the 771 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:17,320 deepening. This record is one that I just saw this name looking at me 772 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,559 and I was looking through what was out, you know, this past week, 773 00:51:21,119 --> 00:51:24,519 and genuinely before i'd even seen the album cover, which is its own 774 00:51:24,559 --> 00:51:30,320 fucking bizarre, you know thing, but just the name written down made me 775 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:35,960 cry tears. The band are called Sexual Perverts and this is the best bit. 776 00:51:36,199 --> 00:51:43,960 Their album is called sex Maniac dot dot dot Forever. Idly forgot like 777 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:45,280 I forgot to chat, and then when I was looking for the list, 778 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:49,880 I was like, oh god, Like, I mean, at least they're 779 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,519 upfront about it, you know, you like, yeah, you can appreciate 780 00:51:52,559 --> 00:51:59,760 the honesty. There's a song that called fucking roll and and vocally it reminded 781 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:02,079 me of a little bit of macabre if you want some of that stuff. 782 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:07,840 But just Sexminiact dot dot dot Forever is one of the most beautiful things I've 783 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,519 ever seen. And I applaud them for that, and an EP from a 784 00:52:10,599 --> 00:52:15,159 kind of homegrown heavy metal band, the rather good band Heavy Sentence, which 785 00:52:15,199 --> 00:52:19,760 includes members of Wode and Aggressive Effecta and the like to it just like proper 786 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,360 you know, fucking new of a British heavy metal pub rock type stuff. 787 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,639 Their EP is out today called Warriors of Madness. Thank you very much for 788 00:52:25,679 --> 00:52:30,320 listening to us here on hyperblasts On that's not metal. As said, the 789 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,199 next thing we are going to be recording is that album Club Pack, featuring 790 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:37,320 the records I detailed earlier post Human and the like. But coming up here 791 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:40,239 on the main feed next week. Following the trail of that, will be 792 00:52:40,679 --> 00:52:45,559 our first reviews show of twenty twenty four. Obviously, we're gona talk about 793 00:52:45,559 --> 00:52:46,599 the Green Day record, We're gonna talk about some of these other things that 794 00:52:46,639 --> 00:52:52,280 are coming out as well. Band Unfortunately not sexual perverts this time, but 795 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:58,119 I do recommend you at least just let that into your brain. Yeah, 796 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:04,119 high's lows, oddo lows and I'm not talking about Green Day. Let us 797 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:05,880 see you there. Goodbye,
