00:00:26,519 --> 00:00:32,079
Hello everybody. Welcome to this new
edition here of Hyperblasts. Here on that's

2
00:00:32,119 --> 00:00:34,759
no matter, your weekly rock and
heavy metal podcast. We're here to tell

3
00:00:34,799 --> 00:00:38,000
you everything that you need to know
that has gone down in the last week,

4
00:00:38,079 --> 00:00:43,280
every single thing, no stone left
unturned. My name is paren hairsh

5
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,679
with me today as usual. We've
got Elliott Paisley here, We've got Sam

6
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:50,520
dick On here. Hello. Hello, very well. I mean I've not

7
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,039
seen Brian Fallon, but I'm doing
as well as I can. I mean

8
00:00:54,079 --> 00:00:57,840
I've had love I've had I mean
I could be seeing him right now again

9
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,479
right now. They're playing London again
tonight, and I just I did to

10
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,920
rather than go to that, i'd
be here for the podcast. I'm I

11
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,079
didn't know they were doing three nights. I'm genuinely for all three. Yeah,

12
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,120
so we've got we've got another show
that we're going to talk about,

13
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,920
but very quickly. You have been
talking about, you know, the Lasting

14
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,959
night seeing the Gasla Anthem. With
something like that, I'm sure people will

15
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,560
always be interested in kind of like
differences between show setlists whatever. I know

16
00:01:21,599 --> 00:01:23,560
you were mentioning a little bit,
So give us a very quick before we

17
00:01:23,599 --> 00:01:26,840
go on to talk about something else, round up of all the interesting things

18
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,040
that occurred over the gas plat anthems
stint at the Roundhouse. Well, yeah,

19
00:01:30,079 --> 00:01:36,760
so really different set lists across the
two nights, like about twenty it

20
00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:40,239
was like twenty two songs something each
night, sort of ten sort of songs

21
00:01:40,239 --> 00:01:42,280
that were the same, like the
big hits, fifty nine sound, handwritten,

22
00:01:42,359 --> 00:01:46,840
the sort of the ones you'd expect
them to play a decent showing for

23
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,680
the new album. Intually, they
focused for the new I'm live on the

24
00:01:49,719 --> 00:01:56,640
slower material, so the stuff like
Michigan and Auto, those sort of songs,

25
00:01:56,879 --> 00:01:59,000
like the big kind of more rocky
numbers. They only played one of,

26
00:01:59,159 --> 00:02:01,439
like a different one of that each
night, but still not kind of

27
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,799
like relegated, like outside of handwritten
and fifty nine sound take up the bulk

28
00:02:05,799 --> 00:02:07,879
of the set list each night.
The new album still got a decent shit

29
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,360
people. I guess the interesting thing
about this is if people responded to that,

30
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,800
because I know that amongst Gaslight fans, the album you know, was

31
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,560
a little bit sort of fifty to
fifty. It was a bit fifty to

32
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,199
fifty on the show Night one.
No Night one was an old crowd.

33
00:02:23,319 --> 00:02:24,919
I was like, Oh, this
is a bit Q music, isn't it

34
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:30,400
Tonight I was I felt very young, and I was like, oh,

35
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,240
I guess that Avapan is really this
boring now. Night two was a lot

36
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,800
more at it, which was nice
and better response to the newer songs,

37
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:43,120
more singing and then like the actual
hits off of on Night two when they're

38
00:02:43,159 --> 00:02:46,120
dropping like Great Excepit, so it's
like the open with a newer song,

39
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,000
So Night to the Open Spiderwebs.
It's got a decent reception. And then

40
00:02:49,039 --> 00:02:52,240
they went straight into Great Expectations and
Americans slang ra afterwards, and that was

41
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,240
like, oh, yeah, well
everyone is actually people are jumping about and

42
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:59,439
singing along now. But they were
great. Brian Fallon is actually on really

43
00:02:59,479 --> 00:03:02,159
good format. I mean he is
particularly energized, like coming out Night one

44
00:03:02,199 --> 00:03:05,520
in a black sabbat, short of
long hair, and I'm like, oh,

45
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,800
I can't fancy this man anymore,
but here we are, like but

46
00:03:09,479 --> 00:03:13,240
yeah, no, just really good. As a fan, it was nice

47
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,560
to go two nights and see a
really like wide select of songs across two

48
00:03:16,599 --> 00:03:20,879
nights, all of my favorite,
like real favorite songs, including some like

49
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,560
deep cuts that they don't always play
alongside the obvious hits and yeah, it

50
00:03:24,599 --> 00:03:29,759
was just a good sort of see
them just having fun on stage that it

51
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,319
felt like as a band. This
was the most engaged I'd seen them since

52
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:37,719
the sort of a reunion as well, So they feels like things are rolling

53
00:03:37,719 --> 00:03:39,919
for them properly as a band now, very good sort of two evenings,

54
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,080
I had a lovely time, jolly
good well something that we were both at

55
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,919
on separate nights. Speaking of reunions, is last week I suppose last weekend

56
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:54,319
was when Botch actually arrived in the
UK. It feels like almost a whirl

57
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,319
wind twelve months or so where that
doesn't feel that long ago where we were

58
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,240
going like teasing a reunion that definitely
isn't happening. It will be reissues and

59
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:08,520
stuff like that. And now we've
seen Boch. Yeah, how bizarre like

60
00:04:08,639 --> 00:04:12,599
that whole journey of Botcher teasing something. Do we got hopes it's gonna be

61
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,680
issues? Watch have a new song
out? Oh We're not actually back though,

62
00:04:15,879 --> 00:04:19,000
played a song in the middle of
another band set. But we're not

63
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:26,360
actually back though. Watcher back though. Like stuff, It is fucking it

64
00:04:26,439 --> 00:04:30,360
feels really surreal that, like,
you know, we're actually I mean they're

65
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:31,680
they're closer to the end now than
they were to the beginning of the Reginnon

66
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,519
because they're going to be playing their
final show in Seattle. I think it

67
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:39,040
is in June, but Boch came
through the UK for I think it was

68
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:44,639
three shows because they have stated,
you know, yeah, our final final

69
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,879
show is going to be in June
in Seattle. If you wanted to see

70
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,360
Botch in the UK, this was
your one window to do that. So

71
00:04:53,079 --> 00:04:57,560
both me and you, I'm sure
what absolutely swayed me. I was about

72
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,800
it, and then when they said
like, oh, these are our final

73
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,680
show, I was like, fucking
get a ticket, haven't I? Yeah,

74
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,839
so it was a big event.
You know, did you see Great

75
00:05:04,879 --> 00:05:10,120
Falls were opening? I didn't catch
who was on first. I caught the

76
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,319
end of like the main support,
Like there were two bands in London.

77
00:05:14,759 --> 00:05:16,519
Greatful was the one who had the
woman on. Yeah, they were the

78
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,399
only support on the other dates.
I think it was so cool. Yeah,

79
00:05:19,399 --> 00:05:23,639
Great Falls. I've sort of lightly
followed their albums. I guess it's

80
00:05:23,639 --> 00:05:26,240
cool that they came over here,
but they were ferociously heavy live, Like

81
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,040
it's kind of sort of a like
a neurosis meets a noisier Ken Mode type

82
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,680
thing. Yeah, really fucking intense, like conviction from them, like another

83
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:39,399
crazy drummer to watch in terms of
like the how much of a kicking he

84
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:43,040
was he was putting into that.
Yeah, I thought they were cool.

85
00:05:43,079 --> 00:05:45,600
I wasn't totally blown away with them, but I had no familiarity with them,

86
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:46,560
and I was kind of just walking
in halfway through the set and was

87
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,720
be like, this is this is
a lot going on right now, where

88
00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:53,319
like they say, like how hard
they're playing, and then you've got this

89
00:05:53,319 --> 00:05:56,720
woman on the side of the stage
kind of like vocalizing and not singing and

90
00:05:56,759 --> 00:06:00,360
just kind of like creating a load
of different noises colliding together. Yeah,

91
00:06:00,399 --> 00:06:01,920
I really enjoyed at the very beginning
of their set. Again, I think

92
00:06:02,439 --> 00:06:05,319
that might be uh someone who did
like some guest vocals on an album or

93
00:06:05,319 --> 00:06:08,800
something. I think she's not a
permanent part of the Life band, which

94
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,199
again sort of strange that they came
out to the UK tour, but cool.

95
00:06:11,639 --> 00:06:13,920
But the very first thing she did
at the start of the set,

96
00:06:14,079 --> 00:06:16,439
before she started singing, was she
started doing what I can only describe,

97
00:06:16,439 --> 00:06:18,240
but you know when you did that
noise when you're trying to call a cat

98
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:23,240
and you go ppsps. Yeah,
as they were building up, she was

99
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,839
just doing that and I was like, is this gonna be the whole vibe?

100
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,519
But yeah, they were really fucking
heavy. I was like, I

101
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,399
was looking forward to seeing Botch in
terms of you know what we've just said,

102
00:06:31,439 --> 00:06:35,439
but like the joke that you could
and certainly did see made about this

103
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:40,720
was like it's the big event for
hardcore fans between the ages of thirty five

104
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:45,040
and forty five, right, Like, it was certainly Botch, and the

105
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,079
kind of devotion to Botch feels like
it is most intense amongst a demographic who

106
00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:54,600
were you know, there for them
the first time. I like, I'm

107
00:06:54,639 --> 00:06:57,560
a much bigger fan right now than
I was a week ago, which is,

108
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,560
you know, the testament to the
power of a show like this.

109
00:06:59,639 --> 00:07:02,160
But like I was going in as
someone who obviously like really raped you know,

110
00:07:02,199 --> 00:07:05,399
we are the Romans and American thevoso
as kind of you know, seminal

111
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:10,800
influential bits of Violet Matthey hardcore.
But you know, I hadn't been waiting

112
00:07:10,839 --> 00:07:12,879
my whole life to see it.
Like people, you know, those people

113
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,480
who were ensconced in that at that
time, they're not what you know,

114
00:07:15,519 --> 00:07:18,319
I know it converge or someone mean
to me in the same way, Sam

115
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:25,279
Botch were incredible. What the fuck
they were like they just open and that

116
00:07:25,879 --> 00:07:29,279
the last two her friends in the
Great White North for you as well.

117
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,759
Yes, yeah, and I was
that that just immediately got the crowd like

118
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,160
going hard because I was like it
was a you're right, it is there

119
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,040
a bit of an older crowd and
you could what everyone knows coming out of

120
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,839
Marshall tirement sort of yeah, like
I'm the same, like I've probably gone

121
00:07:43,839 --> 00:07:46,839
to watch maybe a little bit before
you like again in sort of like as

122
00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:49,160
when I've really want to mail calls
out. Going into the roots of it

123
00:07:49,199 --> 00:07:51,720
and getting into all those bands is
when I got into Botch, and so

124
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,800
it's when I was kind of like
one of was like, you know,

125
00:07:55,839 --> 00:07:58,360
I'm never gonna see Botch, so
fair enough, like but let's let's going.

126
00:07:58,399 --> 00:08:03,120
And yeah, they were just fucking
incredible. Like any kind of like

127
00:08:03,199 --> 00:08:05,759
legcy band coming back, there's always
a kind of like is it gonna you

128
00:08:05,759 --> 00:08:11,639
know, capture those sort of feigned
live shows and the intensity of what I'd

129
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:16,279
heard about or is it gonna be
like watching a bunch of guys or of

130
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,920
trying to do that and just kind
of like falling a bit flat. But

131
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,279
my god, they sounded just suns
of the energy on stage was like so

132
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,560
high and up there, and just
those songs are just amazing sort of blends

133
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:33,559
of like incredible technicality and like interesting
song structures with just some of the heaviest,

134
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,600
like hard hitting moss parts band can
come out with. I mean,

135
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,159
yeah, this was This was one
of those cases of kind of exceeding expectations

136
00:08:41,159 --> 00:08:43,360
because you know, I've I've seen
bands like at the Drive in or whatever,

137
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,240
and I've been like, yeah,
you know, cool, I like

138
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,159
these relationship with command songs or whatever, but it's certainly not comparing to I

139
00:08:50,159 --> 00:08:54,600
guess any idea of what people who
were there the first time kind of tell

140
00:08:54,639 --> 00:08:58,399
you about at the drive in.
But this was like manically intense. And

141
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,960
you think for a band who you
know, prior to about a year ago,

142
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,799
hadn't played these songs together for like
over twenty years, but the fucking

143
00:09:07,279 --> 00:09:13,039
way they attacked them was like delirious
and a proper assault. You know,

144
00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:16,639
there was one song where they just
like reached this big crescendo at the end

145
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,240
of it, and the strobe was
going fucking crazy, and it was so

146
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:24,000
like physically viscerally intense in a way
that you couldn't get away from, not

147
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:28,960
just in a like I'm here to
see the songs deal, but like the

148
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:35,000
physical violent sensation that you associate with
that band in their prime felt like it

149
00:09:35,039 --> 00:09:37,159
was there intact, you know,
like multiple parts where the singer Dave is

150
00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:41,159
like leaping out on top of the
crowd despite there being a barrier, Like

151
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,240
by the end of the seale,
like half about had their tops off and

152
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:46,519
they were just going even harder,
Like this wasn't I'm really bossing names thement,

153
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,759
but it's almost like kind of also, it's been like quite like weirdly

154
00:09:50,879 --> 00:09:54,919
spacey bits and these like really really
violent stabs, and that push and paul

155
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:58,799
between those sort of sounds just makes
the sort of two extreme mens so that

156
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,840
every time they do hit on those
hard bits is just like it physically moves

157
00:10:01,879 --> 00:10:05,720
you, just through the sheer power
of like the song. Yeah, I

158
00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:07,879
mean, watching them live, I
was drawn to or sort of registering,

159
00:10:07,919 --> 00:10:11,399
you know, the kind of the
freak guitar genius going on in terms of

160
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:16,759
like where are you pulling those parts
from? Like the alien kind of tapping

161
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,159
parts in the middle of songs and
stuff, you know bits in John Wu

162
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,759
where you go, oh shit,
that's that's Gadjira, you know, which

163
00:10:20,799 --> 00:10:24,200
like I know you talk about like
more of an angel a lot with someone

164
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,399
like them, but like here's another
one and then I think you know what

165
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:30,600
you might be talking about there,
and there's like there in transitions from persona

166
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,240
to object, they were like those
weird kind of awkward, rhythmic sort of

167
00:10:33,279 --> 00:10:37,200
nudely bits. People in the crowd, yeah, were like clapping along,

168
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,720
like clapping through these weird o botch
parts or you know, singing that it's

169
00:10:41,759 --> 00:10:46,360
so quiet here in Hutton's Great Heat
Engine, just like people who clearly know

170
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:52,080
those songs extremely well, and like
you could see how important they actually were

171
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,440
in terms of, you know,
not a case of showing up because you

172
00:10:56,519 --> 00:11:00,919
know the name or whatever, like
people genuinely fucking hollering for these things.

173
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,399
Yeah, you like you definitely see
that, like the portion of card who

174
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:09,120
will like being either waiting till you
sees again or like missed out on it

175
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,240
at the first amount and just were
so intensely sort of devoted to these songs

176
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:18,039
that the it didn't feel like you're
kind of watching a legacy nostalgiantod Their arms

177
00:11:18,039 --> 00:11:22,000
were like, yess, very good. It was a real kind of like

178
00:11:22,799 --> 00:11:28,399
everyone caught up in the moment of
just watching this fantastic band get the moment

179
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:31,639
they are sort of deserve in like
selling out a respectable sized venue in London

180
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:35,679
and just bringing the pace, bringing
the place down in terms of the carnis

181
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,519
they were bringing. Yeah, hearing
fucking Brian's bass, like sliding around in

182
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,279
all these really weirder ways ment all
some of the stuff they would do,

183
00:11:43,399 --> 00:11:48,600
Like as a band, they are
so musically like freak show in like you

184
00:11:48,639 --> 00:11:52,279
can't cohesively kind of put together what
they're doing, but they just are slamming

185
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,320
it out every time, and it's
just like other times, I just wasn't

186
00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:00,320
like, how the hell are you
doing this? Like yeah, I thought

187
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,519
one twenty two, which was that
new song they released last year, was

188
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,879
really good in terms of like it
didn't feel out of place in the set

189
00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:09,639
despite there being a two decade gap
between that and any other material. And

190
00:12:09,639 --> 00:12:13,080
then obviously that song is always now
going to sit on its own because they're

191
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,519
not doing it and nowm or anything. But I thought it sounded, you

192
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,039
know, really it wasn't any kind
of detour away from what you want to

193
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,840
watch. You can tell you can
I mean you cold hear like this is

194
00:12:20,879 --> 00:12:24,840
a newer song in it maybe it's
slightly less all out chaos, but it

195
00:12:24,919 --> 00:12:31,720
still feels so thoroughly from that same
creative mindset where Botch did a yeah previous

196
00:12:33,039 --> 00:12:35,759
songs. It fits nicely and and
I think as well, like there's sort

197
00:12:35,759 --> 00:12:39,200
of stage band teas kind of when
he was introducing that song and talking about

198
00:12:39,279 --> 00:12:43,120
like they never really did political songs, but this has to be one of

199
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,960
those because of the times and things
like that. You could tell that even

200
00:12:46,039 --> 00:12:48,679
just come back, they wanted to
do a song that meant something still Yeah,

201
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,240
And I felt like I was having
my mind newly blown by the We

202
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:56,080
Are the Romans material, just in
terms of like seeing it in front of

203
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,960
me for the first time, because
I've always you know, appreciated that album

204
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:03,000
very very much. But like towards
the end when they get into like the

205
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,399
big crescendo and see Thomas Howell as
the soul man, which like after a

206
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,080
lot of carnage leans into like a
proper like emotional chord progression, and that

207
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:16,120
was incredible because you don't really get
that much else throughout the set, and

208
00:13:16,159 --> 00:13:18,159
so when you hit like there are
there are moments of emotion, you know,

209
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,519
some of like the piano stuff and
the softer moments, but when you

210
00:13:20,639 --> 00:13:24,679
hit that like big grand crescendo and
it coming like near the end of the

211
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,159
set, it really didn't hit on
like a like probably emotional level. Yeah,

212
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,960
like the grandeur in that moment that
you forget Boch were capable of,

213
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,000
and they're fucking on this one moment. They absolutely nail it, and like

214
00:13:35,039 --> 00:13:35,919
you know, again, I went
along because I was like, well,

215
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,360
if I want to see Boch,
who are this very influential band for you

216
00:13:39,399 --> 00:13:43,440
know that strand of heavy music,
this is my one time to do so,

217
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,879
and I really like them. That's
a good enough reason to have gone

218
00:13:45,919 --> 00:13:48,240
along in the first place. But
like that was for me. That was

219
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,840
as good as I saw her every
time. I die like approaching like last

220
00:13:52,879 --> 00:13:56,000
tour, Dillinger, I imagine it
had a similar energy to those famous shows

221
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,080
people talk about when Refused first came
back and it was just like this fucking

222
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:03,919
crazy energy like, and I just
think for Botch to come back for just

223
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,759
over a year's worth of shows when
we know they're going away again, this

224
00:14:07,879 --> 00:14:11,840
isn't any kind of you know,
dragging out Reuni or whatever. Come for

225
00:14:11,919 --> 00:14:15,120
just over a year's worth of shows
and going yeah, we can still do

226
00:14:15,159 --> 00:14:18,919
this, by the way before going
again and doing that is like a fucking

227
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,919
flex. I mean, it's probably
my gig of the year so far in

228
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,039
terms of just like pure like enjoying
us singing, just getting quite a moment.

229
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,480
But yeah, I agree, like
I've really said them were going to

230
00:14:28,519 --> 00:14:31,399
go like, yeah, you know, we're gonna do this because we can,

231
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,879
because we want to give a fan
something back, not phone it in

232
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,879
as going like a half assed cash
gamun Clearly again, this will mean something

233
00:14:37,879 --> 00:14:41,240
to them, So it just felt
like a real cause for celebration, even

234
00:14:41,279 --> 00:14:45,720
if it is short lived. Yeah, and it feels like a moment to

235
00:14:45,759 --> 00:14:48,120
have caught on them, you know, because like you know, obviously,

236
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,480
if if you weren't there, then
I'm afraid the chance is gone. Butcher,

237
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,879
are you going to be gone again
within a few months. But I

238
00:14:52,879 --> 00:14:56,600
feel like, you know, if
you did catch this, it'll be spoken

239
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,519
about you know, like that wild
run of Botch shows when they came back

240
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:03,759
and were like fucking way more unbelievable
than they had any right to me,

241
00:15:03,919 --> 00:15:07,399
is how I'm kind of thinking about
it. They were like seriously, seriously

242
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:13,360
intense and impressive and yeah, fucking
it. Like my memories of Botch have

243
00:15:13,559 --> 00:15:16,399
Obviously I never sold them the first
time around, but like just as a

244
00:15:16,399 --> 00:15:20,240
thing I associate with in my mind, now they've gone up a few levels

245
00:15:20,279 --> 00:15:22,120
in terms of like you've got that
like real iconic moment. I have that.

246
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,559
Yeah, I have that tangible memory
of like them being fucking unbelievable.

247
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,919
So that was seriously wonderful, absolutely
highlight of the year so far, I

248
00:15:30,399 --> 00:15:35,639
agree. News today in the hyperblasts
there's been like fuck all new singles.

249
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,879
We weirdly have a couple of new
band demos based on, you know,

250
00:15:39,919 --> 00:15:41,360
some things that you might be interested. We're gonna talk about those very quickly

251
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,320
instead of any sort of like you
know, big album that's or anything like

252
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,360
that. A couple of new bands
first up as a band called Mistress.

253
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:54,919
Not to be confused with the Anamothrak
grindcore kind of side project, but Mistress

254
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,960
is a band that have released a
demo this week. It features members of

255
00:15:58,039 --> 00:16:02,240
High Command and Fuming Mouth. I've
not been able to find out like exactly

256
00:16:02,679 --> 00:16:04,080
who and who does want. All
I know is that there are people from

257
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:08,000
that band involved. There's a female
vocalist, so I don't think it's any

258
00:16:08,039 --> 00:16:12,159
of any of those guys there.
But when you are thinking High Command Femal

259
00:16:12,159 --> 00:16:17,840
Mouth, you're probably thinking hardcore,
thrash, death metal, nasty stuff.

260
00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:21,200
This is just doom. I mean, I guess we like Highermand, You've

261
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,399
got that heavy metal link as well, but yeah, this is like the

262
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,519
cool side of doom that I'm like, hell yeah, it's got that real,

263
00:16:26,639 --> 00:16:33,240
like Crackley kind of seventies feel to
it. But I read like first

264
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,919
demo, I think this is really
cool. Yeah, it's a weird combination

265
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:40,159
because it's tonally it's pure classic doom, like Cathedral, candle Mass, that

266
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,200
sort of thing. But when you
said we were going to be listening to

267
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,360
this for the show, I was
like, oh, fuck, I'm quite

268
00:16:45,399 --> 00:16:48,799
short on time, Like I'll see
if I can squeeze it in. And

269
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,240
when it ended, I was like, oh, the four truck Doom demo,

270
00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:56,360
I said, thirty minutes aside for
is over because in minutes, yeah,

271
00:16:56,399 --> 00:16:59,000
like two of the songs are under
four minutes. There's a sort of

272
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,559
outro at the end. The longest
is just about five So it's really in

273
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,799
and out and punchy and crunchy for
a doom record, but it does still

274
00:17:06,799 --> 00:17:10,240
have all those classic tones, so
it's like, like you say, you

275
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,799
can tell there's the heavy metal influence
of something like High Command, but also

276
00:17:14,759 --> 00:17:18,519
I wouldn't say like hardcore sensibilities.
You can tell the people involved or maybe

277
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,519
you know they're in a scene where
it's more cuts to the chest. Is

278
00:17:22,559 --> 00:17:25,799
it's like brief little doom pop songs. I think that the production was the

279
00:17:25,799 --> 00:17:30,720
weird part for me in terms of, like it's not overly reverby in the

280
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,920
way that this kind of doom normally
is, you know, the sort of

281
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,759
like you know, electric wizardly type
riffs with a sort of you know,

282
00:17:36,839 --> 00:17:40,000
haunting female vocal upfront. You might
think about something like wind Hand or whatever

283
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,359
as a comparison point, but this, again, it's like punchy and crisp

284
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,119
like hardcore, and I think I'm
not sure it could even be a drum

285
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,359
machine, Like it feels like a
sort of strange. Again, it's only

286
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,960
a demo, so we'll see,
like if a full like the materializes what

287
00:17:52,599 --> 00:17:56,119
proper you know, kind of sonic
job or anything. They end up kind

288
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:57,359
of applying to it. But it
was a bit of like, oh,

289
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:03,160
this is a you know, a
an interesting sort of combination of like production

290
00:18:03,319 --> 00:18:07,079
style and the kind of music you're
playing with that. So yeah, again,

291
00:18:07,079 --> 00:18:10,160
we'll see if that kind of goes
anywhere further. But there is a

292
00:18:10,279 --> 00:18:14,240
new demo from a band featuring members
of High Command and Fuming Mouth. I

293
00:18:14,279 --> 00:18:15,920
know a lot of people like and
then we also have again coincidentally, this

294
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:21,319
week another demo from a brand new
band. Twenty bucks Spin randomly announced that

295
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,599
the band Cerebral Rots had broken up. Who are a real were? I

296
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:30,400
suppose a really good stinkin' death doom
band we reviewed. I think it was

297
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,880
their second full length album a few
years ago. I always really enjoyed,

298
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,039
Like, yeah, absolutely horrid.
But twenty back Spin well, like,

299
00:18:38,079 --> 00:18:41,599
yeah, Cerebralrot had done, but
some of their members are immediately starting at

300
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:45,160
this new thing. So there's a
band called Corpus Awful, which is very

301
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:49,160
good. The logo weird me out
a bit because but before press play on

302
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:55,279
it. The logo looks a bit
more like a kind of like space prog

303
00:18:55,559 --> 00:18:57,960
like cryptic shift kind of prog thrashdown
thing compared to like, you know,

304
00:18:59,079 --> 00:19:03,039
dripping ooze what everybody you'd associate.
But it basically is more you know,

305
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,799
cerebral rock style, just honkin death
doom. You know, how does psychosis

306
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,680
ripen I don't know, but it
has got a honkin riff, I know

307
00:19:10,759 --> 00:19:14,880
that much. Yeah. The again, just disgusting guitar sound on this.

308
00:19:15,519 --> 00:19:18,279
I've come around more to that cerebral
album over the years, and like again,

309
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,559
I just you know, ongoing.
Oh yeah, definitely always good like

310
00:19:22,279 --> 00:19:29,279
this as a demo, Yeah,
just filthy, like stinking, like fettied

311
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,880
like corpse writing, riffs like big
doomy bits, just nasty like music.

312
00:19:34,519 --> 00:19:37,480
Well, if you're into you know, deafitel doing whatever death do, I

313
00:19:37,519 --> 00:19:41,759
can't see anyone having a problem with
this. Yeah, I agree, I

314
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,240
was. I thought I remembered you
weren't that into cerebral rocks. I didn't

315
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:45,799
know how much to expect a kind
of two track demo from a new band

316
00:19:45,839 --> 00:19:48,440
would do for you. But you
know, please to hear that. I

317
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,039
think it's a sign my brain is
truly rotted, because the world awful just

318
00:19:52,079 --> 00:19:56,319
denotes quality to me. You see
the way that'll be excellent, and it's

319
00:19:56,519 --> 00:20:00,920
it's appropriate because it's it's such a
smelly sound th thing, like it's recorded

320
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,480
to tape and you can absolutely tell
because there's no pro tools or yeah,

321
00:20:03,559 --> 00:20:07,599
there's definitely not a drum machine.
There's nothing tight enough. If they like

322
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,400
a limited cassette or something, you
know, you'd get that, Yeah,

323
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,839
exactly. And it's like, I
just love when these bands when they kind

324
00:20:14,839 --> 00:20:18,839
of play in a way that sounds
sloppy and then put the put the echo

325
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,240
on so it's even sloppier. Just
they're not even trying to hide any aspects

326
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,680
of I just it feels like it's
kind of in the exact middle ground between

327
00:20:26,759 --> 00:20:30,519
something like it's sound like a weird
comparison, but the songs being long and

328
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,039
quite I don't know if Dynamics even
the world. They're kind of long and

329
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:37,359
winding with these weird choices kind of
reminds me of blood and cantation, but

330
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,079
it's so filthy that that doesn't seem
like the appropriate comparison. Yeah, I

331
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,319
get what you're going for that I
mean, the drummer on this is is

332
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,240
Jesse from Belwich as well, who
is very very good, and there's a

333
00:20:48,319 --> 00:20:52,799
really lovely kind of like when you
can again with the sort of like tape

334
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,759
production everything you can hear the kit
just sort of sloping all over it during

335
00:20:56,839 --> 00:21:00,960
these doom parts, like he's splashing
in a paddling of shit or something.

336
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,160
It's absolutely brilliant. So if you
like your you know, brief little demos,

337
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,400
hopefully ian both those bands we might
see full length coming soon. Who

338
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,559
knows, but two new bands on
the scene their Mistress and corpus Off or

339
00:21:11,599 --> 00:21:15,359
both featuring members of bands we think
are rather good. Tour news is primarily

340
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,799
what we're talking about this episode.
In terms of news, there's bloody loads

341
00:21:18,839 --> 00:21:22,599
of it both sides. At the
Atlantic first up is more of a I

342
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,640
guess it's gone beyond a rumor at
this stage. It's not a confirmed lineup

343
00:21:25,759 --> 00:21:30,119
or anything, but it has been
sort of, you know, theorized over

344
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,559
the past couple of weeks if you've
been following the conversation over in the States,

345
00:21:33,799 --> 00:21:38,079
that the Summer Slaughter Tour might be
returning to being a sort of regular

346
00:21:38,599 --> 00:21:44,119
institution, And this week we seem
to get the confirmation that would be the

347
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,440
case. I don't know about you, Elliot. The Summer Slaughter tour,

348
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:51,039
obviously I never went because I live
here. I have not been to the

349
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:56,480
USA since about two thousand and four
or something. But being into you know,

350
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,319
extreme metal, getting into death metal
and stuff in the kind of you

351
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,200
know, early twenty tens, I
always looked over at the Summer slot of

352
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,039
tour as a thing that happened every
year, and you know, people i'd

353
00:22:06,519 --> 00:22:07,839
you know, be chatting to on
Twitter or whatever would be going and I'd

354
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,279
be like, oh, man,
what a dream line up that is?

355
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,200
Now at the back at them and
I go, there's like eight or nine

356
00:22:15,279 --> 00:22:18,640
bands on these things, and like
five of them are Sumerian Records, gent

357
00:22:18,799 --> 00:22:22,559
bands that I wasn't really into.
I was just excited because count of the

358
00:22:22,599 --> 00:22:26,519
capitation we're playing. But there is
something quite seminal of an era about Summer

359
00:22:26,559 --> 00:22:30,920
Slaughter and I didn't even realize it
necessarily, you know, being defunct.

360
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,119
But people over there, quite naturally, I think, are quite excited that

361
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,640
it seems to be coming that I'm
smiling because it feels like you've read my

362
00:22:37,759 --> 00:22:41,720
notes. It's getting into extreme metal
around that time. It was like,

363
00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:44,920
you know, for something I never
went to in a country thousands of miles

364
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,960
away, Summer Slaughter still seems quite
significant, and like you were saying,

365
00:22:48,079 --> 00:22:52,839
like the lineups I always got,
Oh, I so wish I could have

366
00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:55,559
gone like it would have been.
But it's like I just used to see

367
00:22:55,599 --> 00:22:57,799
between the buried in me and go
oh, brilliant and then just look down

368
00:22:57,799 --> 00:23:03,599
and just go behold the Arctopus Empirical
and never say died tour with then just

369
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,880
a bunch of like with like a
bunch of really cool like death metal bands

370
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,920
and sit on top of it,
been away. This is the perfect time

371
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:15,559
for them to come back, because
now there's so many great small extreme metal

372
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,599
degree yeah, that you could fill
up that bit. You wouldn't just have

373
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,160
to email Sumerian and say, you
know, our chip span a free or

374
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,839
whatever. Like the amount of stuff
you could get to fill this out,

375
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:30,480
you could legitimately have a fucking great
lineup. Yeah, I agree. I

376
00:23:30,519 --> 00:23:33,559
think you can certainly imagine if Summer
Slaughter Tour coming back and filling it full

377
00:23:33,599 --> 00:23:36,359
of you know, Undeaths and two
hundred stab Wounds and all these bands that

378
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:37,400
are really popular at the moment and
it getting a really good you know,

379
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,359
attendance and buzz and everything. Again, for me, I think about it.

380
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,880
I think about it more in a
logistical sense of like you've got like

381
00:23:45,319 --> 00:23:48,240
eight or nine bands, legit fucking
rolling around city to city together, all

382
00:23:48,319 --> 00:23:52,920
turning up, like you know,
touring for like at least a month or

383
00:23:52,960 --> 00:24:00,839
two to do half hour sets at
four point thirty pm. That seems like

384
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,240
ANET twenty tens thing. You look
at the like like some slow was obviously

385
00:24:04,559 --> 00:24:07,839
you're going on them. But there
were so of those US tours that were

386
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,039
like eight band lineups and that's why
you had like the empirical and the sidietal

387
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,000
being like the UK like budget version
of it. But yeah, like it's

388
00:24:15,039 --> 00:24:18,839
all of those Like could not watch
that many of these bands on one day

389
00:24:18,839 --> 00:24:22,039
anymore. It'd be exhausting. Yeah
like that. But but I am,

390
00:24:22,079 --> 00:24:23,720
I'm looking at some of these lineups
and he's like twenty eleven, The Black

391
00:24:23,759 --> 00:24:27,000
Dahlia, Murder, Whitechapel, Darkest
Hour, six Feet Under, Dying,

392
00:24:27,079 --> 00:24:33,720
Fetus As Blood Runs, Black Oceano, Flesh God, Apocalypse, Apocalypse stand

393
00:24:33,799 --> 00:24:38,039
out there, mental what you know, fucking I mean, the fact that

394
00:24:38,039 --> 00:24:41,480
you could get a tour you're like
Cannibal Corpse and Nile together and Suffocation and

395
00:24:41,559 --> 00:24:44,480
then you go, oh wow,
that's amazing. When does that start?

396
00:24:44,519 --> 00:24:48,039
And then it's got six other bands
on it. It's just it's absolutely bananas.

397
00:24:48,079 --> 00:24:52,000
But yeah, it's very, very
I'd be massively intrigued as to what

398
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,839
kind of bill a Summer Slaughter in
you know, twenty twenty four would be

399
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,400
put in together, even if I
obviously have you know, no plans of

400
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,400
flying over and attending currently, But
yeah, I'm definitely intrigued to see how

401
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,519
that turns out. And if you
are a you know, a death metal

402
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,480
faithful or whatever over in America.
I'm sure this is a massive, massive,

403
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:18,720
exciting news. We've got a download
announcement which I'm it's it's a good

404
00:25:18,759 --> 00:25:23,599
announcement that I'm slightly disappointed in because
it slightly lessens the banter factor, which

405
00:25:23,839 --> 00:25:27,400
is that we've got a couple more
additions to the main stage at Download this

406
00:25:27,599 --> 00:25:33,119
year. We've got Creeper and Kerry
King have both been announced for Download this

407
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,359
year, both on the same day
on the same stage, the main stage

408
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,559
of the Sunday which is the event
Sevenfold day. What I say about lessening

409
00:25:40,559 --> 00:25:45,680
the banter is we were having a
right laugh at basically Code Orange being sandwiched

410
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,359
between two shit show bands with Bowling
for Soup and Lord of the Lost.

411
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,640
Now Creeper and Kerry King have been
put right before them, which still means

412
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:59,559
that Kerry King is playing before Bowling
for Soup, and that is very funny.

413
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,759
But Code Orange stand out a little
bit less as like a rabbit animal.

414
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,720
Yeah, I mean, if you're
gonna go to download, you're not

415
00:26:07,759 --> 00:26:10,759
gonna get a sort of a better
run than going Creeper into Code Orange.

416
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,400
That's like the weekend sorted aside from
fucking body sleep in the middle there and

417
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:15,759
opening with All the Lost that looks
like a really good stage. Now,

418
00:26:17,079 --> 00:26:18,440
I mean, I've got iving bodoms. You could be fun enough as well.

419
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,720
But yeah, like that is a
like Kerry King. We're still going

420
00:26:22,799 --> 00:26:23,599
to be up in there, like
what the Life's gonna be like? All

421
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:29,240
that and more material. But I
imagine as a downloads or act forty minutes

422
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,920
of Kerry King cranking out riffs on
a Sunday afternoon, decent time in it.

423
00:26:33,079 --> 00:26:36,559
Well, I don't think this has
less than the banter factor, because

424
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,720
it's probably been twenty years since anyone's
played after Kerry King at a festival.

425
00:26:41,039 --> 00:26:45,200
You're right, and so maybe the
first time that happens since the late nineties.

426
00:26:45,799 --> 00:26:51,640
He's walking off. Maybe do it
the Curl or the bad Guys want.

427
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,160
It's just like that. I mean
if Slayer, if the Slayer even

428
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:59,119
hadn't be announced yet, that would
kick it off. You'd be walking off,

429
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:04,519
going, I can't do this again, Tom, please take back everything

430
00:27:04,559 --> 00:27:08,880
I said. Very good. Indeed, we've got the announcement of ac DC's

431
00:27:10,039 --> 00:27:15,640
European Arenas stadium actually support tour.
Sam, you amongst us certainly are going

432
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,720
to be there, and I imagine
you were very excited to see the Pretty

433
00:27:18,759 --> 00:27:22,480
Reckless announced in that slot. I
mean, if they play maybe Want to

434
00:27:22,559 --> 00:27:26,519
Die, I'll watch that and then
I'll go get a drink. Like I'm

435
00:27:26,559 --> 00:27:29,920
not going to pretend that. You
know in twenty ten, was it when

436
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,359
the album come out that I was
not liking the pre Reckless because I like,

437
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,079
I watched the Gossip Girl because you
know whatever, Like I didn't mind

438
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,240
that first album. But I'm also
there were those bands it something come up.

439
00:27:40,279 --> 00:27:42,920
I'm sort of like still together,
like it's like still getting these slots

440
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,240
as well, like they've not They've
not come up with anyone better in the

441
00:27:45,319 --> 00:27:49,000
last fifteen years to support a CDC
in the pre record Like it's just I

442
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,799
just I just get I'm like hashould
have gone off to do something else at

443
00:27:52,839 --> 00:27:55,920
this point, like fair enough she
was committed to the band. But just

444
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,759
a surprise every time they I learned
that the pre Reckless are still an active

445
00:27:59,799 --> 00:28:03,920
band and just maybe you know,
for some people it might be an early

446
00:28:03,039 --> 00:28:07,319
night. You know, you go
see the pretty Reckless that into ACDC,

447
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:11,920
get get the train home, getting
gets out of the way, so hopefully

448
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:17,039
it'll faster people out that way.
Pay nine hundred pounds see forty five minutes

449
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,920
the Gossip Girl. In all honestly, I thought I was bracing for a

450
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:26,400
worse support, like just knowing what
like UK stadium tour supports tend to be

451
00:28:26,559 --> 00:28:29,519
these days. Yeah, well I
was surprised I've heard of them because I

452
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,480
was talking to you and who you
think it's going to be. And I

453
00:28:32,559 --> 00:28:36,640
remember last time when I saw ACDC, I think at the Olympic Stadium and

454
00:28:36,799 --> 00:28:40,680
it was vintage Trouble. Yeah,
I like someone like that who I've never

455
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,839
heard of who you can imagine being
on the old Dad Rock Sunday of a

456
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:47,279
download festival mainstays like some shit like
that as what I was expecting, So

457
00:28:47,519 --> 00:28:49,400
I will I'll take the pre reckless
as a win because they've got ones on

458
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:53,799
a like, yeah, well,
let's veer back over to the summer slaughter

459
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:59,880
side of things. It's happening over
here. Cannibal Corpse have announced a pretty

460
00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:03,759
fucking crazy, I must say,
UK tour. I'm not sure exactly,

461
00:29:03,839 --> 00:29:07,400
but you'd imagine this has to be
some of, if not their biggest UK

462
00:29:07,599 --> 00:29:11,880
shows ever, which is fucking like
sensational to see, Like, thirty five

463
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,079
years into that band's career, I
actually saw, you know, when you

464
00:29:15,119 --> 00:29:19,680
see that little events like kind of
advertised on Facebook before you a should see

465
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,079
a full tour announcement. I saw
this first and it was like Cannibal Corps

466
00:29:22,079 --> 00:29:25,880
at the Victoria Warehouse in Manchester and
I was like, who are they supporting?

467
00:29:26,079 --> 00:29:29,160
You know they with I'm on the
Martha at Bloodstock. It can't be

468
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,240
them like they doing over in the
States. But Cannibal Corps are bringing a

469
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:37,440
full European UK headline tour, playing
sizable venues like the Victoria Warehouse in Manchester,

470
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,240
the Roundhouse in London, and the
bill they're bringing along with them is

471
00:29:41,359 --> 00:29:47,960
Municipal Waste, Immolation and Schizophrenia.
I'm not massively familiar with schizophrenia, and

472
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,200
part of me goes, oh,
immolation of the more classic band nation supporting,

473
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:56,400
main support, whatever, but a
package of cannibal immolation and municipal waste

474
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:02,200
is in fucking big arenas. This
feels like one of the the event heavy

475
00:30:02,279 --> 00:30:07,440
tours of this year for sure.
Well, it feels like when Behemoth went

476
00:30:07,559 --> 00:30:10,240
up to when they did the Forum
and sold out. Yeah, it's the

477
00:30:10,279 --> 00:30:15,279
biggest extreme metal show in British soil
ever, and then they did I comment

478
00:30:15,279 --> 00:30:18,039
if that was a COVID one,
but they're doing Brixton with Arch Enemy,

479
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:23,119
yeah Bricks shortly after the COVID sort
of ended. Well, some of these

480
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:27,599
aren't aren't far off that size and
if that's what they're doing, Cannibal Corps

481
00:30:27,599 --> 00:30:32,720
don't even of the show them Victoria
where Good Year are played on that recent

482
00:30:32,799 --> 00:30:36,519
tour, What you hell that is? Yeah? Like because like Groundhouse is

483
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,480
like two five hundred I think in
London, you know that's this gas an

484
00:30:40,559 --> 00:30:44,079
from where they'll do three nights.
But Mensings have done that groundhouse. That's

485
00:30:44,119 --> 00:30:49,799
what size like venue. It is
not a small room in there. Yeah,

486
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,519
I mean I won't because of course, like this show that they now

487
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,519
days after I brook a holiday to
Japan, Cannibal they're touring at that exact

488
00:30:57,559 --> 00:31:02,799
moment of Bastards, So you're welcome. I would just into existence by being

489
00:31:02,799 --> 00:31:07,039
out the country after. I'm very
very excited for this. And you know,

490
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,640
on that same note, Paul Zerwitz, the drummer of Cannibal Corps,

491
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,160
has announced his debut stand up comedy
show, which is going to be doing

492
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,359
over somewhere or other, you know, around around where he lives. But

493
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:22,839
he's making his stand up debut.
Paul. I've interviewed him a couple of

494
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,359
times. He's in general we see
him, he's a very chill, amiable

495
00:31:27,559 --> 00:31:30,359
kind of guy. So I imagine
this probably would be you know, if

496
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:36,119
he can not fucking whacking Phoenix joker
it, I'd imagine this would be quite

497
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,160
entertaining. I was gonna say,
like, if you've seen Centuries of Torment,

498
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,960
you know he's he's at least a
good storyteller. Yeah, and you

499
00:31:41,039 --> 00:31:45,240
know, I interviewed him soon and
he's he's a super nice guy. The

500
00:31:45,319 --> 00:31:47,960
only thing that puts me on edge
about this is I think he's paired with

501
00:31:48,039 --> 00:31:52,279
an improv comedy troupe for this,
which is maybe the lowest form of entertainment

502
00:31:52,319 --> 00:31:57,599
there is, so that slight sets
when there's slightly but I mean in terms

503
00:31:57,599 --> 00:32:02,440
of like twenty twenty four Ingo Cards
Paul, which being a stand up comedian

504
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,559
is low. I mean, it's
just that he's taken him thirty five years

505
00:32:06,599 --> 00:32:08,240
into the band to do it.
You know, He's like, it's only

506
00:32:08,319 --> 00:32:12,799
now he's gone, Yeah, I've
got enough stories now to uh. But

507
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,839
you know, the Cannibal Corpse.
A lot of funny shit has happened to

508
00:32:15,839 --> 00:32:20,039
them on the road over their three
plus decades, probably quite entertaining stuff.

509
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,359
More us torn used corn of an
Outsdade. Bloody, big old fucking North

510
00:32:23,359 --> 00:32:27,039
American headline tour they're doing. Obviously, they're huge shows over here. Feels

511
00:32:27,039 --> 00:32:30,480
like every corner announcement right now is
like them shooting for the stars, going

512
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:35,480
fuck you, We're not main support
band anymore. We are legends. Yeah,

513
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:42,440
a huge tour here with Gadjira and
spirit Box, two of the bands

514
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,680
of you know, the current moment, sure, like yeah, because obviously

515
00:32:45,839 --> 00:32:50,400
they announced it proved that that massive
show that that arenamal essence as well,

516
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,759
didn't that. I'm guessing this is
kind of like an extension of that by

517
00:32:52,839 --> 00:32:57,440
just taking a fraction of that lineup
out on the road. But you'd have

518
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,480
a lovely time seeing spirit Box,
Ga Jura and Corn And wouldn't you something

519
00:33:00,519 --> 00:33:06,960
that we actually got surprisingly early?
Unearthed are doing the Oncoming Storm over there

520
00:33:07,039 --> 00:33:09,400
now back where they're from, we
got it first. Ah, But yeah,

521
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:15,039
they are doing their twentieth anniversary Oncoming
Storm shows, one of which is

522
00:33:15,599 --> 00:33:19,839
a show in Boston which features Bleeding
Through, Overcast, Viewing Mouth, all

523
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,359
Out Wore Apes, and another band
to be announced as well. But Unearthed

524
00:33:23,519 --> 00:33:28,240
Oncoming Storm Bleeding Through. If you're
there, you know you're gonna have a

525
00:33:28,279 --> 00:33:34,440
good old time. Also, Lizzie
Hale is now the current live singer for

526
00:33:34,559 --> 00:33:37,559
skid Row because skid Row are a
man who have you know, have their

527
00:33:37,599 --> 00:33:40,559
fair few singers in their day.
They have just announced that they have parted

528
00:33:40,599 --> 00:33:44,079
ways with Eric who had for a
couple of years. They had the guy

529
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:49,440
formerly of heat h At with dots
in between them if you remember that band.

530
00:33:50,559 --> 00:33:52,119
But I saw them with that guy
and he was good and the show

531
00:33:52,279 --> 00:33:55,599
was great, but he's had to
step back for health reasons, and I

532
00:33:55,640 --> 00:34:01,319
suppose probably not a permanent gig because
Hale's dorm are like pretty busy and pretty

533
00:34:01,359 --> 00:34:07,079
successful. But I imagine I'm like, you know, I'm not a Hailstorm

534
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:12,239
fan. I am a skid Row
fan. I imagine if you catch one

535
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:16,079
of these skid Row shows with you
know, undeniable rockstar Lizzie Hale fucking belting

536
00:34:16,119 --> 00:34:20,960
out, you've gone wild, probably
gonna be fucking great. Yeah, Like

537
00:34:21,559 --> 00:34:24,000
as a vocalist, you can't fuck
with her. She's got the pipes to

538
00:34:24,119 --> 00:34:29,159
sort of give these Skido songs a
bit of something extra, So I think

539
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:32,880
like as a kind of like temporary
partnership thing, like pretty solid idea to

540
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,599
get him. Yeah, it kind
of seems a bit like when a ten

541
00:34:37,679 --> 00:34:38,840
years ago, when it was being
thrown around that Corey Taylor was going to

542
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:43,000
join Anthrax, and you were like, I'd love to see that bebe be

543
00:34:43,039 --> 00:34:46,039
a fucking idiot to do that full
time. So if Lizziell's gonna doing some

544
00:34:46,119 --> 00:34:50,760
skid Row songs, I mean if
said back still doesn't want to come back,

545
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,800
that this is a pretty worthy successor
Yeah, and there is always something

546
00:34:54,880 --> 00:35:00,920
quite interesting about bands of that certain
generation and moment thing. And obviously there's

547
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:05,880
a certain kind of attitude and aura
that is associated with those bands when they

548
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,519
like gender swap the singer and you
get you know, someone like Lizzie Hale

549
00:35:08,599 --> 00:35:13,079
singing Sweet Little Sister and all those
fucking songs. Like I think there is

550
00:35:13,119 --> 00:35:16,280
something genuinely pretty cool and you know, like it puts a new slint on

551
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:21,159
them kind of. So like,
yeah, I say do it full time,

552
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,199
fuck it, sing some wicked songs. You'd probably be really good at

553
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:29,199
it. Yeah, bring that over
here. Black Sabbath have finally announced their

554
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:36,360
release date for their big reissue campaign
for the forgotten uncelebrated Tony Martin era.

555
00:35:36,559 --> 00:35:37,840
That's going to become it on May
the thirty first, a big old box

556
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:43,400
set. The hilarious thing about this
is Tony Martin era, So it's nineteen

557
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,159
eighty nine to nineteen ninety five they're
having in this box set. The first

558
00:35:46,199 --> 00:35:50,760
Tony Martin album, Eternal Idol,
had already been like available, so it's

559
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,000
not part of it. Also,
that window of time does it include the

560
00:35:53,039 --> 00:35:55,960
one album they randomly decided to make
me run a James Dio again in that

561
00:35:57,079 --> 00:36:00,719
time. Black Sabbath in the eighties
to nineties is absolutely be fucked. But

562
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,400
I am genuinely excited about this.
I've been waiting for it for a long

563
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:07,280
time. We can talk about,
you know, doing more Sabbathy stuff or

564
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:12,159
whatever. Good news there And this
week most Lady story of the week.

565
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:17,960
Yes, mister Lordie and friends are
on the cover of Vogue Scandinavia posing with

566
00:36:19,159 --> 00:36:24,199
some lovely vegan friendly fake handbags and
stuff like that in their full you know,

567
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:30,000
master attire. What's going on?
Right? Because I know, like

568
00:36:30,199 --> 00:36:32,800
Lordie, like mister Lordie, he's
an icon on everything, and I know

569
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:37,360
that, like he must be very
popular over in Scandinavia. But like they

570
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,960
are shit, aren't they? And
it's like, I know, we've had

571
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:44,280
our laugh when we've done an album
club or the one well are you on?

572
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,000
And stuff like that, But like
the thing that Lordie just did of

573
00:36:46,079 --> 00:36:50,480
releasing that like seven album box wherever
it was, of them like doing we're

574
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:53,320
gonna do a disco album, We're
gonna do a country album or be demonic,

575
00:36:53,639 --> 00:36:58,519
Like how the fuck do bands get
a like doing that, you know,

576
00:36:58,639 --> 00:37:04,320
Devil Daddies and stuff like that end
up still being like, yeah,

577
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:10,159
we're in Vogue the power of Eurovision
and like like no, what you mean,

578
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:15,800
but like they just have I think
like build up over is that iconic

579
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:19,519
status that even like like people don't
see, like most people don't care about

580
00:37:19,519 --> 00:37:22,480
that seven album box there you ask
Lord, And yeah, the photos are

581
00:37:22,519 --> 00:37:27,840
amazing. Fairs like wearing it again
the Parada bag Like, yeah, outfits

582
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:32,360
with like little holding little handbags is
seriously funny. It's just it's proof that

583
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:37,840
the whole who's going to be the
next big band conversation is completely pointless because

584
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,400
we can shout about Creeper and Code
Orange all we want. They've got some

585
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,719
star power. I could see then, Like, Lord, you're on the

586
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,960
cover of Vogue in twenty twenty four, a few years where people saying,

587
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:50,480
oh, we're going into we're going
to the next golden age of alternative music.

588
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,760
Was it was this on the calendar
like a few years into that.

589
00:37:54,599 --> 00:38:00,519
Fucking mister Lordie, it's still a
cover star. It's truly unpredictable conversation that

590
00:38:00,559 --> 00:38:04,519
will give you that much. All
right, questions are actually back on hyperblasts.

591
00:38:04,519 --> 00:38:07,159
I apologize for not having them in
here for several weeks now. Things

592
00:38:07,199 --> 00:38:10,119
got really busy. We were kind
of moving these shows pretty quickly. But

593
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:15,480
questions are now back for hype blasts, and so for the returning round of

594
00:38:15,559 --> 00:38:17,320
them, we threw over as we
normally do, to the That's Notmental focus

595
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,199
group over our Facebook if you want
to go and join and engage in our

596
00:38:21,199 --> 00:38:23,599
conversations over there and everything, and
we've got three questions here for you.

597
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:28,039
The first up is this is the
very first I think I'm right and say

598
00:38:28,119 --> 00:38:30,119
with the very first comment that got
posted, and I love that this is

599
00:38:30,199 --> 00:38:35,519
just like still I don't know the
debate or whatever, but David gieland that

600
00:38:35,639 --> 00:38:38,559
says I'd love to hear the team
discourse on Baddikore, the good, the

601
00:38:38,639 --> 00:38:42,480
bad, and the ugly, And
that's all that we've got to infer into

602
00:38:42,519 --> 00:38:46,599
this conversation. So I can only
assume that we are assigning because Baddikore has

603
00:38:46,679 --> 00:38:51,159
those like three big bands of the
moment, right like if you say that

604
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,360
term, which again I know is
still a controversial term that some people would

605
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:58,880
very much like people to stop saying. But there are three sort of scene

606
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,639
leaders who are lead in the way
for what that is. I guess for

607
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:07,559
me, I can quite easily assign
which one of these I suppose each would

608
00:39:07,599 --> 00:39:09,440
be. Yeah, if if we're
being the same thing bands, I'm assuming

609
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:14,719
we're talking spirit Box, Sleep Token, bad Omens. Yeah cool, because

610
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:15,920
I know obviously people like to lump
loave in there and for that. But

611
00:39:16,039 --> 00:39:20,360
like there's some step though. But
yeah, I assume we would all have

612
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,559
fully or wean we all have the
same first pick. I can't imagine any

613
00:39:23,559 --> 00:39:29,920
of us mortes. I mean,
they are TikTok stars, so I have

614
00:39:30,119 --> 00:39:34,280
TikTok stars. I think you could. You could quite easily like brand Watison

615
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,519
is a baddycore band, if you
ask me. Yeah, So, I

616
00:39:36,599 --> 00:39:39,280
mean, I guess I'm going you
know, spirit Box the good bad Omens

617
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:44,159
the bad it's in their name,
and sleep Token the ugly because they wear

618
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:49,079
masks and they have to mushroom head, they have to hide. There are

619
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,960
debilitating physical appearance, and if people
saw his face they stop thinking he was

620
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,679
really sexy. So I guess that's
I guess you can also, you know,

621
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:59,599
if you turn this into the same
you know, tree, you could

622
00:39:59,599 --> 00:40:02,400
do like a fun marry kill scenario, and myself, I would have to

623
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:07,320
be I'd have to fuck bad Omens
because like I don't know again, I

624
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,880
saw them live would bring me earlier
this year, and like quite good looking

625
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:14,360
lads to be fair well, you
know they've got like a catchy chorus here

626
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:19,039
and there, like okay, Mary, I'm going spirit box because that's a

627
00:40:19,159 --> 00:40:22,719
that's a much more healthy love affair
going on there, and again not trying

628
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,480
to raggle them too much. But
the questions been asked, you are I'm

629
00:40:25,519 --> 00:40:30,280
not, you know, I would
simply have to kill sleep Token. Do

630
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:34,880
we have any disagreements on the ordering
of this very arbitrary little game? I

631
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,440
mean I kind of back and forth
on who I dislike more about of bad

632
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:42,679
Omens or sleep Token, because I
you you play me asleep. I know

633
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:50,599
it's sleep Token because you can't not
that bad problems were bad Omens is They

634
00:40:50,599 --> 00:40:53,440
are the most faceless back other than
being like say, good looking lads.

635
00:40:54,039 --> 00:41:00,239
I was at face down a couple
of weeks ago and I was just like,

636
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:01,559
who is there was a bad was? Like I could have guess ten

637
00:41:01,679 --> 00:41:06,320
bands before I reached bad Omens.
Yeah, there's nothing that quite makes me

638
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,519
as angry as some of that stuff
on that seventy minute sleep Tooken album.

639
00:41:09,079 --> 00:41:13,440
I will probably side with you on
this, parent, but it was not

640
00:41:13,599 --> 00:41:20,320
as easy a decision to make.
I would kill bad Omens because I think

641
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,719
I wouldn't feel anything if I did
that, like treading on an ant,

642
00:41:24,679 --> 00:41:30,440
Yeah, exactly, I would.
Then I'd probably I'd probably fuck spirit Box

643
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:35,800
and sleep Tokens seem very busy making
a lot of money. No, they're

644
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,239
away on tour. I'm at the
mansion. Those those fifty pound coins.

645
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:44,280
What that money can buy exactly?
And when we when we inevitably split up,

646
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,559
Oh, the payout. Imagine being
sat there while that guy is doing

647
00:41:46,599 --> 00:41:51,280
the dishes, you know, singing
to himself. I could not live that

648
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:53,559
domestic lifestyle. Yeah, I guess. On the bandy core thing, I

649
00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:57,519
know that like last year, we
had a lot of you know, necessary

650
00:41:57,599 --> 00:41:59,679
with some of the bands at releasing
albums and stuff like that and what we're

651
00:41:59,679 --> 00:42:01,400
hot top, because we had a
lot of discussion about this this year.

652
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:05,679
The start of this year, I
feel like I've moved into the firmly,

653
00:42:06,199 --> 00:42:09,199
Like the baddy chore is happening over
there, and that's fine. By me,

654
00:42:09,519 --> 00:42:13,360
you know, like we we we
cleared it all out in the award

655
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:17,480
show. I'm just just content with
my life, So there you go,

656
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:22,960
although it would not be a content
domestic life with you know, older sleep

657
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:28,079
sleep token boy. Right. Next
question, Paul Terry asks if you were

658
00:42:28,079 --> 00:42:31,079
all recruited to join Slipknot, who
do you think would last the longest?

659
00:42:31,679 --> 00:42:36,920
And why? Here's the thing man, because I don't know. I like,

660
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,159
have you played an instrument? Are
you musing any in any capacity?

661
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:45,079
Or yeah? But you know I
play a few instruments. Because I was

662
00:42:45,159 --> 00:42:46,760
like, well, I know,
Paran obviously you you you are about being

663
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:51,760
a druma phone like plays. I
was like, oh no, wait,

664
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:57,159
parents are drummer like yeah, sticking
around? If he's joining slip Not,

665
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,079
is he like yeah, I would
I would not even you know, I

666
00:43:00,119 --> 00:43:02,800
don't rate my own playing highly enough
to go, Yeah, I can easily

667
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:07,280
slip in and do Jay Weinberg's job, let alone fucking Jerry Jordison. So

668
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,440
I'm and I'm not additionally for that
position. Let me tell you, if

669
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:15,679
I did, I would probably go
either the percussionist route. Well that's all

670
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,039
I would do, because that's all
I could probably get away over at this

671
00:43:17,079 --> 00:43:21,440
point, is that a keg whack
a keg or you know, you could

672
00:43:21,519 --> 00:43:23,199
do some little rudiments or whatever,
you know, play along to the blister

673
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:28,159
exists. But again that seems to
be a slightly volatile position, and I'm

674
00:43:28,159 --> 00:43:30,519
thinking of obviously, if you're in
Slipknot, you've got to displace someone you

675
00:43:30,599 --> 00:43:34,800
know. And obviously the reason this
question has been asked is you know their

676
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,480
recent slate of you know, line
up fracturings and stuff like that. You've

677
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:42,400
got to think basically, this is
the question that's being asked here, really

678
00:43:42,559 --> 00:43:46,039
is slip not survival strategy? How
do you stay a member of slipnot and

679
00:43:46,119 --> 00:43:49,880
not get kicked out? Right?
And you look at the people who that

680
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,119
has gone well for, I know
that you would have until very recently gone

681
00:43:52,119 --> 00:43:55,039
Oh here, Jane Wiberg's having a
good old time. So it could all

682
00:43:55,119 --> 00:44:00,159
go wrong at any moment. But
I think I might have to kill v

683
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:05,159
Man, is what I'm saying.
I think, you know, I maybe

684
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,400
slipping into the base position. If
I practiced really, really hard, I

685
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,840
could do a little bit better than
that. Then, you know, trying

686
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:14,599
to be fucking Joey Jordison or whatever. V Man seems to be doing a

687
00:44:14,639 --> 00:44:16,199
good job. Like he's he's holding
it down. He's not even from the

688
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:19,519
same country as the rest of them, and he's still like, you know,

689
00:44:19,599 --> 00:44:23,800
he's stayed there that whole whole time. Whatever he's doing, he's doing

690
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:28,079
something right in terms of keeping his
head low. Yeah, keep your head

691
00:44:28,119 --> 00:44:30,440
down. Yeah, not upsetting the
powers that be. I think my strategy

692
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:36,119
would be basically replace V Man and
have them not realize. I would try

693
00:44:36,199 --> 00:44:40,079
and sort of like slip into his
brick like yea of the difference, like

694
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:45,800
wear the same mask, I have
to grow a big beard. But I

695
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,840
would basically have to do my best
V Man stealth impression. And I'm sorry,

696
00:44:50,159 --> 00:44:52,119
V Man is nothing personal, but
you might end up being buried somewhere,

697
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,920
which I feel like slipnot would approve
of. But that's the only way

698
00:44:55,960 --> 00:45:01,800
I e a thinking slipping into slip
Noo and maybe surviving for a manageable amount

699
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:05,000
of time. I mean, I
would just go in and do it,

700
00:45:05,039 --> 00:45:07,440
because I'm here for a good time, not a long time. How many

701
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:12,480
keggs can I hit him? One
go? Like, I just I'm not

702
00:45:12,559 --> 00:45:15,960
sure agreeableness is actually that much of
a tactic because like like Grant, like

703
00:45:16,039 --> 00:45:20,559
Chris Fenn, right, I understand
why it's like suing your band while you're

704
00:45:20,599 --> 00:45:23,760
in them. It's pretty low agreeable
behavior. But as much as they keep

705
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:29,199
your head down, Craig doesn't talk, Craig doesn't say it would and he's

706
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,519
gone. So it's like, I
don't know, I'm trying to I think,

707
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:37,320
if you can, intimidation is the
way. So I'm gonna square up

708
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:42,360
to Mick Thompson as big as Mick
Thompson said, no one can fuck with

709
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:44,920
you? Is that what it is
exactly? And I'm not going to clown

710
00:45:45,039 --> 00:45:46,800
on his nose, be like,
no, I'm not doing this anymore.

711
00:45:47,119 --> 00:45:52,280
You're going to respect me, ruffle
Cory's hair, and just like, well,

712
00:45:52,679 --> 00:45:54,480
I think you've got to do that. Whatever it is. I don't

713
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:58,559
think slipping in is I mean's slipping
in maybe if they don't notice it is

714
00:45:58,599 --> 00:46:00,480
one of But I think keeping your
head down might not be the right tactics.

715
00:46:00,519 --> 00:46:04,760
So I'm just going to go in
a you know, maybe what would

716
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,639
I do to Mick Thompson and poke
him in the eyes or something and then

717
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:12,159
take his position. Although as much
as I lasting long in the band.

718
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,159
I don't really like face paints,
so I don't. I don't think i'd

719
00:46:15,199 --> 00:46:17,360
last very long if I How can
we have a vote on the masks?

720
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:23,199
Boys, we definitely married to this
idea. So who of us do you

721
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:27,480
think I was the best shot?
I think that's the question. It's not

722
00:46:27,559 --> 00:46:30,360
just how he would you do it? It's we have to decide. Yeah,

723
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,320
I mean it could also be you
know, how successful do you think

724
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:38,079
these strategies laid out would Because I'm
sticking with my basically the man identity fraud

725
00:46:39,079 --> 00:46:44,599
path of trying to get into Slipknot. Sam is very openly saying I'm not

726
00:46:44,679 --> 00:46:45,800
going to be here for long,
but I'm going to get as many good

727
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:49,599
keg smacks out of this as I
can, literally, and you're going to

728
00:46:49,639 --> 00:46:54,480
walk in and bully them on that. I mean, Pin might take this

729
00:46:54,639 --> 00:46:58,239
one. Now. I think it
would be like a mob thing where you

730
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,519
know, they think, oh no, they're going to kick when it's like

731
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:06,320
this kid's got moxie. That's quite
a long that's a long shot. That's

732
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,960
a big bet. But I think
it's like, if you can take out

733
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:13,440
the alpha, you can you can
run the gang yeah. I like the

734
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,000
idea of them like talking to me
in the mask being like yes, so

735
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,960
how are the boys in Crocodile doing? Then I'm under that mark sweating.

736
00:47:20,679 --> 00:47:24,440
So let us know what you think
the most successful path into maintaining a membership

737
00:47:24,519 --> 00:47:30,920
of Slipknot would be. And final
question today, David Roach asks our longest

738
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:34,119
question, are there any bands where
you like one or two albums but have

739
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,039
no interest in anything else they've put
out? For instance, Troublegum by Therapy

740
00:47:37,159 --> 00:47:39,320
is one of my favorite albums of
all time, but I couldn't tell you

741
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:43,280
about anything they've put out in the
last twenty years. Likewise, I saw

742
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,039
Thrice play Artists and the Ambulance in
full recently. They played about ten Later

743
00:47:46,199 --> 00:47:49,800
era songs afterwards, and I just
went to the bar area to wait for

744
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,760
my mate. I went with I
don't know if it's me being incurious or

745
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:54,360
the band setting the bar so hi
that I don't think they'll have a top

746
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:58,400
it. Who knows. This is
one of those ones where I guess,

747
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,760
you know, I was thinking about
what the what are the parameters of the

748
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:05,159
question? What is actually being asked
here? Because I think it's it's very

749
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:09,000
normal to have bands where like you
love a certain era of them and maybe

750
00:48:09,119 --> 00:48:14,639
you just don't think or maybe it's
widely agreed even that you know that era

751
00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,480
isn't something necessarily recatch it like,
and again, not a band I am

752
00:48:17,639 --> 00:48:20,920
like a die hard fan of or
anything, obviously, but I thought about

753
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:23,079
something like taking that Sunday well,
I really like their first few albums,

754
00:48:23,119 --> 00:48:27,800
you know, particularly tell your friends
in louder now their current output. I

755
00:48:28,119 --> 00:48:31,920
actively don't give a shit, But
this question it feels more of like a

756
00:48:32,119 --> 00:48:37,400
hard divide and maybe less of a
like you know, a general consensus of

757
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,119
whether things have gone downhill or not
because you know, for the cases of

758
00:48:40,199 --> 00:48:44,920
like therapy or Thrice, I don't
think that's necessarily fair. That sounds more,

759
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:46,760
you know, individual for the person
asking the question here. So like

760
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:52,719
hard divide of like I've got one
random album that I adore while not caring

761
00:48:53,039 --> 00:48:58,559
about most things else whether the world
kind of aligns with me or not made

762
00:48:58,599 --> 00:49:01,960
it a slightly more slippery question.
I mean on the fries part, I

763
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:05,280
mean, I reckon there are a
number of Friest fans who would tell you

764
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,199
they have top Tist in the ambulance. So just to me. People probably

765
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:12,039
ask argue in favor of like Vesu, you are you on that one yet?

766
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:15,880
Like so there for me, I
mean there was a couple that immediately

767
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:21,679
jumped into head modern baseball for me. I think Holy Ghost is amazing.

768
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,679
I think that album is like incredible, do not then I never liked them,

769
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:28,320
then got into that album, went
back to the other stuff, and

770
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,639
I was still just be like,
include, what's it You're gonna miss it

771
00:49:31,679 --> 00:49:36,159
all? Whatever that be? Yeah, I know, I know. And

772
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:37,400
that's when I was like, a
none of those bands I didn't like,

773
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,719
and then kind of red trops we'll
come back and films of enjoying one and

774
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:45,480
baseball still seeing that character. I
really like that one album, don't care

775
00:49:45,519 --> 00:49:47,760
for anything else. A couple of
differentes that Finch. I think What It

776
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:52,360
Is to Burn is an incredible album, like shout out for What it Is

777
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,679
to Burn. It's one of those
more easy emo records that is really good,

778
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:59,400
proper one hit wonder band. Though
with that one, nothing else is

779
00:49:59,519 --> 00:50:02,920
worth a and from them. And
then even like a similar kind of like

780
00:50:04,079 --> 00:50:07,639
probably not a good band, asking
Alexandria from Deaf to Destiny, they hit

781
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:12,559
on something a lot people are actually
quite good there and again done like into

782
00:50:12,559 --> 00:50:15,599
the previous things outside of like occasional
laughs at like how funny it gets being

783
00:50:15,639 --> 00:50:22,480
stupid ever after from Deaf to Destiny
is crap, like to just put it

784
00:50:22,519 --> 00:50:24,199
bluntly, and I was like,
you know what I do actually quite like

785
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:29,559
that one asking Anxander album. Yeah. I found this quite tough because,

786
00:50:30,159 --> 00:50:31,440
like you say, there's loads of
bands where I can think of like three

787
00:50:31,519 --> 00:50:36,400
album curves that I like or a
set number of years, but it's trying

788
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:37,719
to narrow it down to just that
one. And that's why I picked those

789
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,679
three, because everyone was like they
are onele I know there's that one album.

790
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:44,559
Yeah, and there's a couple.
So two of the more obvious ones

791
00:50:44,679 --> 00:50:49,199
Counting Crows first album. Enough quite
like the second count Crows album to be

792
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,599
fair. I like the Shrek song
as well, but everything else is pretty

793
00:50:52,679 --> 00:50:59,880
much completely forgettable. I don't know. Accidentally in love song, maybe I

794
00:51:00,159 --> 00:51:04,599
I thing about the Counting Crows.
I probably know the song you're talking about,

795
00:51:04,599 --> 00:51:12,559
and I can oh something sorted oh
no, but warmed into that one

796
00:51:12,639 --> 00:51:17,480
parent. The other one that came
to mind was and maybe this is another

797
00:51:17,519 --> 00:51:21,119
obvious one but like something to write
home about by the guess Up Kids.

798
00:51:21,639 --> 00:51:24,440
Again, like that's the only one
I people mentioned. Maybe that's a widely

799
00:51:24,559 --> 00:51:27,760
viewed thing. I don't know.
Yeah, yeah, some people throw in

800
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,360
the first album five minute mile,
and that's a four minute mile. I

801
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:35,800
think that's okay, but quite a
step down. I tried to think of

802
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:37,920
some more like later ones. I
kind of struggle with that, but like

803
00:51:37,079 --> 00:51:40,199
my Dinosaur Life by Motion City soundtrack, I think it's a really good record.

804
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:44,679
I don't really like anything else they've
done, and I thought it was

805
00:51:44,679 --> 00:51:45,840
all kind of a bit emo.
So I trying to thinking of stuff on

806
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:51,840
the more metal end, and I
kind of realized there's only really one and

807
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:55,000
Morphis album that I care about in
twenty twenty four. Is that? How

808
00:51:55,119 --> 00:52:00,000
tell the fact? Yeah? Pretty
much everything else I haven't in years,

809
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:02,440
And that was just kind of like
it's just dawned on me. I hadn't

810
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:07,840
even considered it. Yeah, that's
what I I can respect that because I

811
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,519
think that's their ten you know.
I think Amorphis are a wonderful band with

812
00:52:10,559 --> 00:52:15,800
a really long catalog of really strong
albums, but that album does stand out.

813
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:20,639
You know, there aren't other albums
in their discography that sound necessarily exactly

814
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:22,559
like that one, so I can
see why that would be the one you

815
00:52:22,599 --> 00:52:27,239
the only one you continuely return to. For me. Again, similarly,

816
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,679
I was thinking about, you know, like, there's a couple of Stone

817
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:31,440
Sour albums I really like and I
don't really engage with much else, a

818
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,480
couple of old Bridge albums from around
the same time, you know, the

819
00:52:34,519 --> 00:52:37,119
same, similar kind of thinking,
you know, the brief little moments I've

820
00:52:37,119 --> 00:52:42,199
been into with Mice and Men or
whatever, not a you know, particularly

821
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:45,360
rock one, but like the first
Florence on the Machine album, I was

822
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:49,079
really into when that like came out, and like Path the second one,

823
00:52:49,119 --> 00:52:52,920
I've not followed that trajectory at all, but I still really enjoyed that first

824
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:58,920
record more, you know, the
landing on the Answers. I suppose we

825
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,119
spoken recently aout Death Left and stuff, and I really like the first def

826
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:05,639
Lepper album. They're a new weather
British in Membrane, not really bothered about

827
00:53:05,679 --> 00:53:09,840
hysteria, suck it, but no, the Answers, one of them definitely

828
00:53:10,079 --> 00:53:15,719
was fashionably late by falling reverse before
Ronnie completely exhausted his welcome. But you

829
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:20,599
know, on a musical level.
That's the only moment where I was interested

830
00:53:20,639 --> 00:53:23,400
in what they were doing. Again, the two answer for me that where

831
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:25,880
I went, ah, yeah,
those are the ones albums that I like

832
00:53:27,159 --> 00:53:30,360
where I'm like actively a bit disinterested
in the rest of the catalog. Are

833
00:53:30,679 --> 00:53:35,400
The Holy Bible from the Mana Street
Preachers just really sticks out in terms of

834
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,599
their catalog, and you know,
everything kind of surrounding that record and the

835
00:53:37,679 --> 00:53:40,599
kind of are it has. It's
the only one that's ever kind of particularly

836
00:53:40,639 --> 00:53:45,719
appealed to me. Thus are But
I think maybe the definitive one for me

837
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:51,199
is Death of a Bachelor by Panic
at the Disco, which I actively did

838
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:54,239
not I still don't like, you
know, supposedly classic era a Panic at

839
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:58,199
the Disco. I don't think feither
you can't swear out as a record that

840
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:00,519
has aiged well at all. I
said that many times on this show,

841
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:06,519
but randomly in twenty sixteen that guy
released now and I think is fucking brilliant

842
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,760
and then immediately started going downhill again. So it's the only one that I

843
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:14,559
would say, yeah, I would
nail my color to that particular one.

844
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:20,920
I think Death of Achela might be
my definitive response here, I mean wrong,

845
00:54:21,039 --> 00:54:24,800
but I assume we are coming from
I think that's a really good answer

846
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:28,480
because I don't like Panic at the
Discord. But if I was to list

847
00:54:28,559 --> 00:54:30,679
the songs that I think are pretty
good and then they'd all come off that

848
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:36,039
record because they're all the best ones. Absolutely has got like as an album.

849
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:38,360
It's maybe got problems, but come
on, I'm not having like the

850
00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:42,079
music. Hey, this is a
very personal question. I'm just saying for

851
00:54:42,159 --> 00:54:45,559
me, you know this is that's
my example of a thing where I like

852
00:54:45,639 --> 00:54:50,639
that album I don't care about that
is fair enough, Like, yeah,

853
00:54:51,039 --> 00:54:54,280
all right, Patreon this week,
we have not yet got round to recording

854
00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:57,960
it, but it will be coming, I believe probably as you listen to

855
00:54:58,039 --> 00:55:00,840
this within the next sort of you
know, couple of If it's not out,

856
00:55:00,559 --> 00:55:02,599
you know today, then it will
be out tomorrow, all the day

857
00:55:02,599 --> 00:55:07,719
after. The album club Pak that
we mentioned last time, featuring records from

858
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:12,199
Thin Lizzy, Winter Sun, Part
Reader, Agrophobic, Nosebleed with ads some

859
00:55:12,199 --> 00:55:15,480
comments from people who have like you
know, done their advance listening on that

860
00:55:15,559 --> 00:55:17,559
particular Agrophobe it knows bead record and
being like, what, how are you

861
00:55:17,679 --> 00:55:22,000
even going to talk about this.
I haven't worked that out yet. That's

862
00:55:22,039 --> 00:55:25,679
going to be the challenge of the
show to figure out how to talk about

863
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:28,719
that. So if you want to
hear that, you can go along to

864
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:32,039
patron dot com slash That's Not Metal
and hear that when it arrives. And

865
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:36,519
we are currently in the midst of
planning what our next special is going to

866
00:55:36,559 --> 00:55:40,559
be following on the tale of that
as well. So finally, the release

867
00:55:40,679 --> 00:55:44,679
round up for this episode, these
I get in. I don't know if

868
00:55:44,679 --> 00:55:47,599
it feels like more bands are releasing
records every single week. I don't know

869
00:55:49,039 --> 00:55:51,840
why that is. Like it's a
bit of a struggle to try and figure

870
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:54,239
out, like how many records I
should put into these, where I should

871
00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:58,400
put in absolutely everything, because I
know that some people do, you know,

872
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:01,280
find records that they like from these, and I think that's awesome,

873
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:06,719
But you know, trying to kind
of keep a keep a manageable level on

874
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:12,000
this and not be you know,
spending my entire day listing out the thing

875
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,719
right here. But we've got a
mixture of records here. Firstly from last

876
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:19,960
week, which was the week we
put out our reviews episode that was Dodd's

877
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:22,480
Reach album week, which you know, how bloody excellent is that record.

878
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,719
But also coming out that particular week, we had that Jesus and Mary Chain

879
00:56:27,079 --> 00:56:30,360
released their new record Glasgow Eyes,
you know, a kind of alternative rock

880
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:35,960
icons. At that point, someone
actually someone mentioned that this band Night Versus.

881
00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:37,960
We hadn't mentioned them in these and
they were quite right. They put

882
00:56:38,079 --> 00:56:40,639
a record calld Every Sound has a
Color in the Valley of Night. I

883
00:56:40,639 --> 00:56:44,599
think it's because it was released in
a part of a double album. Yeah,

884
00:56:44,639 --> 00:56:46,360
it was like part one, part
two, and I probably thought the

885
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:50,239
part two was like a reissue or
something along those lines. But it's a

886
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,960
kind of, you know, sort
of a very proggy, tech metal thing.

887
00:56:53,639 --> 00:56:57,599
I believe they've been hand picked to
play shows with Tool in Europe,

888
00:56:57,679 --> 00:57:00,440
so I definitely I've seen the name
around a lot of feels like some of

889
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:02,960
the people are into So they used
to be got more of a post hardcore

890
00:57:04,039 --> 00:57:06,639
band, and then their vocalist left
and so they became a sort of proggy

891
00:57:06,639 --> 00:57:10,000
instrumental band. But yeah, they're
quite a cool thing. Yeah. I

892
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:13,159
was sort of checking in on this, and you know, the reason we

893
00:57:13,159 --> 00:57:15,199
didn't review or anything is because no
one really brought it to the table.

894
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:19,960
You know, that strikes me as
the kind of prog that certainly myself would

895
00:57:20,039 --> 00:57:22,800
kind of glance off me. I
don't know if I'd be speaking for everybody

896
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:24,480
here, but you know, again
that is one of them. I suppose

897
00:57:24,519 --> 00:57:30,199
more something's going on there in terms
of something being pushed night versus. We

898
00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:34,599
have some kind of pop rock from
probably this country, crushed by Waves,

899
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,119
more to life in kind of alt
rock circles. We had an out in

900
00:57:37,199 --> 00:57:40,519
Church Ride Records. It was Blanket
with Ceremonia. There's also a self tape

901
00:57:40,519 --> 00:57:44,840
record from Restorations, which is a
band I had completely forgotten about, but

902
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:46,880
pulling this up, I recognized their
album cover from their previous one, LP

903
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,880
five hundred or something like that.
I believe we reviewed it way back in

904
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:54,079
the day. If you like your
total heartland rock, you know, sort

905
00:57:54,119 --> 00:58:01,039
of gas Lightism's that kind of thing. We have Mastiff Precipice if I'm saying

906
00:58:01,079 --> 00:58:06,440
that correctly. Who knows, but
Mastiff. We did review their last album

907
00:58:06,719 --> 00:58:13,239
UK sludgy hardcore, just noise,
you know, merchants, brat social grace.

908
00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:15,559
This was a strange record. Seems
we're getting an again bit of push

909
00:58:15,599 --> 00:58:20,440
in terms of like a very noisy
hardcore thing, but with a you know,

910
00:58:20,519 --> 00:58:24,559
a kind of feminist bimbo core apparently
your self described sort of tag on

911
00:58:24,679 --> 00:58:28,079
that scene. A few different sort
of takes about what's going on with that

912
00:58:28,159 --> 00:58:32,039
record floating around Zombie Direct Inject that's
for the kind of you know, Italian

913
00:58:32,119 --> 00:58:37,679
goblin. Since score prog type fans
out there, obviously you can probably tell

914
00:58:37,679 --> 00:58:40,719
them their name. Going into the
more underground territory in Doom, we had

915
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:46,599
Hanford with men Honda Stuck Norwegian black
metal. This is kind of sort of

916
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:51,559
very you know, sort of like
mid dark throne to tyracon like black and

917
00:58:51,639 --> 00:58:54,239
rolly type black metal that actualr things
about called Cold That is k h Old

918
00:58:54,840 --> 00:59:00,280
and do Dom's Till Dodd Broder,
Quinn Harbinger of Whoa. This is a

919
00:59:00,519 --> 00:59:02,920
death brutal you know, proper brutal
death metal band. Their first record they

920
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,280
released in like twenty years. They
just sort of came out of the woodwork

921
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:08,159
and released one for no reason,
seemingly, but a lot of people very

922
00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:10,960
excited to have them back, so
there you go. We also had in

923
00:59:12,039 --> 00:59:15,519
more sort of like prog death.
There's Hideous Divinity with Unextinct and a few

924
00:59:15,639 --> 00:59:19,119
of again the really stinky death Thoon
type stuff coming out at the moment.

925
00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:23,280
We had apparition with disgraced emanations from
a Tranquil State. I believe that Taylor

926
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:27,000
Young from Twitching Tongues and nails and
so on and is involved with that one

927
00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:30,719
to to some degree. We also
had on twenty bucks spin Civrus Maize Envy,

928
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:35,480
and we had Aberration Refracture, and
we had a little EP which I

929
00:59:35,519 --> 00:59:37,719
don't think was a metal EP.
I think it's largely the softer side,

930
00:59:37,039 --> 00:59:44,039
but a little EP from Sylvain called
egg ear framand lots of challenging my linguistic

931
00:59:44,239 --> 00:59:47,840
skills across that particular weeks of releases, today's the twenty ninth of March.

932
00:59:49,119 --> 00:59:52,679
We've got a couple of big ones
because we do start with While She Sleeps

933
00:59:52,039 --> 00:59:58,280
and their new record Self Hell.
We also have the final some forty one

934
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:01,360
album Heaven x Hell, a lot
of hellish stuff going on. Both of

935
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:07,760
those are obviously very very you know, notable significant releases. They came,

936
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:08,679
you know, a bit late in
terms of when we were trying to figure

937
01:00:08,679 --> 01:00:12,480
out our review show and stuff.
But next week on the Hyperblast we are

938
01:00:12,519 --> 01:00:15,400
going to be bringing you one of
our hyper Blast review episodes where we're going

939
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:19,159
to be giving you our thoughts on
both of those albums together, so those

940
01:00:19,239 --> 01:00:22,920
will be covered elsewhere out Today,
we've got Boundaries. Death is little more

941
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:27,559
for the metalcore fans. I imagine
their name probably refers to what they are

942
01:00:27,679 --> 01:00:30,960
strictly following. I checked out a
song from this earlier and it had one

943
01:00:30,039 --> 01:00:36,199
of the most jarring clean vocalists start
singing and comes into the song metalcore,

944
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:38,360
you know breaks I have heard in
some time, and I'm like, are

945
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:42,760
we still doing this? But if
that is your thing, then Boundaries are

946
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,320
about and you can go and find
that. In the kind of scuzzier area

947
01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:49,119
of metal core and stuff like that. We have Risk Meat Razor their new

948
01:00:49,199 --> 01:00:52,360
record Degeneration, and this is a
pretty cool one that seems to be,

949
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:54,400
you know, again getting some tongues
wagging if you like your kind of artsy

950
01:00:54,559 --> 01:00:59,480
scream o type stuff, you know, think artwork painted by Jake Bannon.

951
01:00:59,519 --> 01:01:04,320
As we have this has banned Frail
Body with their record Artificial Bouquet. A

952
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:07,079
couple of records in the kind of
like indie punk, you know, soft

953
01:01:07,119 --> 01:01:10,920
punk type sphere. We've got Vile
with Burnout and teens in Trouble What's Mine,

954
01:01:12,039 --> 01:01:15,679
and then veering hard again over to
extreme metal stuff. We've got Coffin

955
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:20,880
Storm Arcana Rising. That was the
new band announced featuring Fenras on vocals.

956
01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:22,559
That's their record that is now out
today, so I will be checking that

957
01:01:22,599 --> 01:01:27,159
out. This one really fucking out
of left field, out of nowhere.

958
01:01:27,679 --> 01:01:30,800
Mutilation, which is mutilating with Two
Eyes, which is a band who are

959
01:01:31,239 --> 01:01:37,920
highly significant in the kind of like
raw, underground vampiric black metal thing that

960
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:39,760
has been all the rage for the
last couple of years, like on band

961
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:44,119
camp and you know every fucking vampiric
black metal bando in their demo whatever.

962
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:46,559
Mutilation are like one of the godfathers
of that. I guess they just just

963
01:01:46,639 --> 01:01:51,440
decided to cash in on like how
popular that is because they were leasing their

964
01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:54,119
first record in like seventeen years,
and they announced it the week they fucking

965
01:01:54,159 --> 01:01:57,119
putting it out. They were like, oh, yeah, We've got our

966
01:01:57,119 --> 01:02:00,840
first album out in seventeen years on
Friday. Okay, cool. I love

967
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:02,519
Mutilations, So I'll go and check
that out. That record and it's cooled

968
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:06,719
black metal cult. I'm not taking
the Pith that's the name of the album.

969
01:02:07,639 --> 01:02:10,079
Also in black metal, this is
a good record. I recommend this

970
01:02:10,159 --> 01:02:15,360
one. Vorga Beyond the Palest Star
that's kind of sort of like space themed,

971
01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:17,440
you know, spacey, melodic,
quite clean, you know, fairly

972
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:22,000
easy to get into black metal.
And then descending further down that rabbit hole,

973
01:02:22,039 --> 01:02:25,320
we have ver Woad with the Mother
and a band I believe features members

974
01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:31,119
of Ulcer Eight, Verberice, The
Apothetic Wilderness, and Darkest Stra the record

975
01:02:31,199 --> 01:02:34,800
No Mad, which is a band
from I think Kyrgyzstan and it's kind of

976
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,440
bringing those sort of like folk elements
in there. Then in death metal we've

977
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:43,440
got Coffins, Sinister Oath, Japanese
death Doom, Stalwart at this point if

978
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:45,800
you like autopsy and shit like that. We have Hate Force Systems of Terror,

979
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:49,639
which is a band I'd forgotten about, but it's a follow up to

980
01:02:49,679 --> 01:02:51,880
a record that came out in sort
of twenty nineteen ish, features members of

981
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:54,480
Harm's Way and stuff like that,
but doing like Bolt Throwery, you know,

982
01:02:55,519 --> 01:03:00,800
heavy death metal stuff and a full
on if you look at the artwork,

983
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:05,119
you know what this is, like, sloppy, early carcass style death

984
01:03:05,159 --> 01:03:10,239
grind, gore, grind affair,
septage with septic worship, brackets, intolerance,

985
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:15,199
spree of infesting forms, close brassing, but fucking brackets. Listening to

986
01:03:15,239 --> 01:03:17,559
that list so long, I am
losing the ability to speak, which is

987
01:03:17,559 --> 01:03:21,719
our cue to get out of here. So thank you very much for listening

988
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:25,280
to this episode. As said up
next from us, within the coming days,

989
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:29,639
we are going to have our album
club pack with some fucking mental grind,

990
01:03:29,719 --> 01:03:31,079
let me tell you, but also
other things as well. That's going

991
01:03:31,119 --> 01:03:36,519
to be coming over the pat the
that's on old Patreon. And then next

992
01:03:36,599 --> 01:03:39,039
Friday, as you hear this,
we will be doing a little Hyperblast review

993
01:03:39,079 --> 01:03:44,360
episode talking about those new records from
While She Sleeps and some forty one before

994
01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:46,920
you know, April rolls around with
everything that brings. So we'll see you

995
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:50,719
there for all of that. Thank
you very much for listening. We will

996
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,239
see you next time. Slipknots Management, please don't come for me. I

997
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,000
have no nefarious plans
