1
00:00:26,519 --> 00:00:30,160
What the fuck is up? Everybody? Welcome to that stumber. I love

2
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,880
when I say that. Every time
we do it, Sam kind of recoils.

3
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,479
It's like you're getting flashback to being
in the New cross In or something.

4
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:41,240
Literally, it's very aggressive. It's
just very like, yeah, sometimes

5
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,880
the detext over this is that's no
metal. Hello, everyone, welcome back.

6
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:49,240
Welcome to another edition of Hyperblasts here. This is our quick little news

7
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,000
show that we do. This will
be shorter than last week's because last week

8
00:00:52,079 --> 00:00:56,119
had the small matter of an entire
Damnation Federal review put onto it. Thank

9
00:00:56,159 --> 00:00:58,759
you everybody who checked that out.
I like to think that those episodes are

10
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,320
they're as much like a guide to
a bunch of cool bands that you might

11
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,200
not have heard as they are just
a recap for people who were there.

12
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,560
So like, go and listen to, like, you know, in Human

13
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,640
Nature or Ash and Spire or Kennis
if he hasn't. I said at the

14
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,680
start there of that episode that I'd
been to a couple of pretty massive shows

15
00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:17,920
outside a Damnation. So we'll rattle
through those as quickly as can here.

16
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:19,920
Sam slightly less high profile than the
ones I was at, I think,

17
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,519
but very quickly Warriors last night We've
covered them a little bit. Good night,

18
00:01:25,079 --> 00:01:27,359
Yeah, lovely night, real bu
because it was them and the Wonderers

19
00:01:27,359 --> 00:01:33,079
both playing London on the same night. Yeah, but it came last week.

20
00:01:33,079 --> 00:01:34,439
It was like the Maggot Heart show
at the Black car which I desperately

21
00:01:34,439 --> 00:01:37,519
wanted to go to. It was
the same night as the big Malevolent shows.

22
00:01:37,519 --> 00:01:40,359
I think there's been a few splits
lately for me. It was one

23
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,079
of those where it's been five years
as Warriors last came here, and I've

24
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,000
seen The wonder Years a lot,
so I was kind of like, we

25
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,319
I'm gonna check out Warriors. But
yeah, really nice, just very chill

26
00:01:49,359 --> 00:01:52,000
evening at the nucles In. It
was built as a co headline with this

27
00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:56,040
band Pause, who were there,
like a Scottish kind of is that pauses

28
00:01:56,079 --> 00:01:59,439
in stop or pauses in like in
the Animal your Little cat feet. Yeah

29
00:01:59,439 --> 00:02:01,000
all right, but they were They
were cool. I'd never listened to them

30
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:07,480
before, kind of like Scottish sort
of emo e alt rock, bit of

31
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,080
the mensing is He kind of stuff
in there, very very much, just

32
00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:13,960
my sort of band. Really enjoyed
them, but Warriors were like the main

33
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,080
draw since they last told it.
They've released three albums, so it was

34
00:02:17,159 --> 00:02:21,879
very much almost an entire set of
new material. Two of those alms came

35
00:02:21,879 --> 00:02:29,000
out this year, like so yeah, pretty much almost entirely new material.

36
00:02:29,039 --> 00:02:32,800
And Jack Kenny of Nervous and Milky
drums for them, it's always nice to

37
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:37,039
see him rock up and him on
drums did give them a bit of extra

38
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,479
kick for the night when they were
kind of leaning into the more rocking materials.

39
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,719
Oh hell yeah, that's you know, a nice bit of like Pulster

40
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,639
but you know, worries. They
just do the kind of the mens and

41
00:02:46,719 --> 00:02:51,759
is he Springsteen punk I love but
very queer kind of like uplifting. Nice

42
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,680
that their new Aarm's got quite a
sort of dancing cynthy bits all over it,

43
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,199
which added to the fun. Just
a very very just a wonderfully like

44
00:02:59,319 --> 00:03:01,400
just uplifting, nice, very gay
little evening at the New Class in a

45
00:03:01,479 --> 00:03:06,000
very good time. You didn't go
to the Creeper tour, did you know?

46
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,360
This is where I'm where I can
only pick like a very select few

47
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,199
gig show. I'm in work until
very late. Well I missed a bunch

48
00:03:12,199 --> 00:03:15,759
of the big ones I did.
It was the first time I've seen them

49
00:03:15,759 --> 00:03:17,240
at all on the Sanga Vore cycle. I know that the album has just

50
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,439
come out, so it doesn't sound
like much, but they were playing shows

51
00:03:20,479 --> 00:03:23,520
with like cry to Heaven out like
over the summer, and then you know

52
00:03:23,599 --> 00:03:30,800
the religion, so that this was
the proper Sangore show support bill of the

53
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:36,599
Nightmares, who were like basically some
kind of unassuming light rock with the keyboarders

54
00:03:36,639 --> 00:03:39,400
doing they supported kids in glass houses. Oh great, the keyboardists were doing

55
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:44,439
all of the heavy lifting and making
it spooky. And then save face,

56
00:03:44,639 --> 00:03:47,360
who annoy me? I'm sorry,
I do not seem to be alone in

57
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,759
the reaction to that on this tour. Their heart's in the right place.

58
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,159
But like asking what if my Chemical
Romance were glee club kids and if they

59
00:03:55,159 --> 00:04:00,159
were ship isn't a question that I
really needed answering. But you quite like

60
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,960
I thought it was mediocre. I
thought it. I thought it was incredibly

61
00:04:05,639 --> 00:04:10,199
shameless in terms of its three cheers, you know, lifting is what I've

62
00:04:10,199 --> 00:04:13,479
said about the time. I hadn't
listened to it since then. The singer

63
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,360
is high energy to the point of
being like mate simmer down, like he

64
00:04:16,399 --> 00:04:23,000
gives me meeka vibes. Which personally
is not a pro you know me chemical

65
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,800
romance. If you will, you
can make that work somewhere. Creeper.

66
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,079
This was my tenth time seeing them
over the last like seven or eight years,

67
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,959
and it was really great to you
know, hit that milestone with a

68
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,319
completely you know, new show,
new ear at everything else, and it

69
00:04:35,399 --> 00:04:42,040
was ridiculous. Further than Forever is
ridiculous thing to see in person opening a

70
00:04:42,079 --> 00:04:46,040
show, right like this band who
started on you know we Ever Packed in

71
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:51,079
VCR. The first ten minutes of
their show now is like one elaborate rock

72
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:56,879
opera piece and people love it and
you can see that. I loved the

73
00:04:56,959 --> 00:04:59,480
vibes of like a heavy metal show
that we were talking about on the album,

74
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,360
where you've got like, you know, the riffs, the dual guitar

75
00:05:01,519 --> 00:05:04,639
stancers on each side of the stage. It's very comforting, happy place for

76
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,680
me. And then I don't know
if you've seen the set us at all

77
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:15,000
of this run Further than Forever ends
Room three h nine hits, Yeah,

78
00:05:15,079 --> 00:05:18,360
that is. I've said it a
few times. It's my favorite Creeper song.

79
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,759
They brought it back for the first
time like five years or something at

80
00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:25,920
one of those release shows when I
was at when You and I saw that,

81
00:05:25,959 --> 00:05:28,160
and I was like, oh,
please let that still be in there

82
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,360
come the November tour. I did
know it was going to be in there

83
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,199
from astray Ian miles Instagram story.
I didn't know it was going to be

84
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:40,120
second in the set, so and
it felt so good to go from like

85
00:05:40,199 --> 00:05:45,199
absurd opener further than Forever to immediately
people losing their shit to like hardcore deep

86
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,079
cut from Attorney in their arms.
You know that's that really suggests, you

87
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,439
know, the kind of they always
remember the different places they've been along the

88
00:05:51,439 --> 00:05:54,759
way, like there's never kind of
out with the old, in with the

89
00:05:54,839 --> 00:06:00,759
new. They played every single track
from Sanguavore apart from More Than Death,

90
00:06:00,959 --> 00:06:02,600
which I think they should have just
done it and stuck it in the encore

91
00:06:02,639 --> 00:06:04,839
somewhere and being able to go,
yeah, we played the entirety of our

92
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:09,279
new album on this tour, and
everybody lapped it up. All of the

93
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,639
songs pretty much great, like Ballad
of Spook and Mercy. I think we

94
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:15,199
were all like, you know,
it's none of our favorite track on the

95
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,959
album, but it's amazing live,
let me tell you. And then even

96
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,319
the way they were like bringing some
of the older songs I guess into the

97
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,480
current look and theme. What I
mean is like they had this bit where

98
00:06:25,879 --> 00:06:29,279
between some one of the songs,
Will came out with like I don't know

99
00:06:29,319 --> 00:06:31,040
if it was like a dummy or
if it was like an actor, but

100
00:06:31,079 --> 00:06:35,120
basically he had a vampire moment of
like sucking on some girl's neck and then

101
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,839
you know, throwing her to the
ground. And then they came out and

102
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,120
did Cyanide with has that you know, kind of like drink her every night

103
00:06:42,199 --> 00:06:44,199
thing, And I was like,
this is some thought that's got into kind

104
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,439
of a cohesiveness even with the older
material. There is Neary a person more

105
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,040
built to be on stage right now
than Will Gould. There is Neary a

106
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:56,120
backing vocalist more casually able to front
the band in her free time than Hannah

107
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,879
Greenwood. It's like when Emperor have
Einar from lepres on backing vocals and keys,

108
00:07:00,519 --> 00:07:04,199
that's it. And they got me
thinking they they've got to be one

109
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:09,000
of the best value for money shows
in rock music right now, hands down,

110
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,000
hands down, because like I you
know, the ticket price for this

111
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,120
was what like thirty something quid around
around thirty maybe and it's like arena band,

112
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,000
do you all know what's going on
there? Green Day were charging night

113
00:07:19,079 --> 00:07:23,079
e Quid to play at you know, a smaller venue then and not play

114
00:07:23,079 --> 00:07:25,639
that night actually as it turned out, Yeah, I mean I know that,

115
00:07:25,839 --> 00:07:29,439
like what what creep attacked onto the
London show by way of about that

116
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,560
was very funny, but you know, like the show going on here,

117
00:07:32,879 --> 00:07:39,360
the Cockshaw performances, the set list
of tunes, the like feeling of just

118
00:07:39,439 --> 00:07:43,879
ecstatic, feverish reaction from a big
group of fans. Everything you'd want is

119
00:07:43,879 --> 00:07:47,839
there and it's thirty something quid.
Almost all of like the Sex Stephanie if

120
00:07:47,879 --> 00:07:51,680
at Void era stuff including the EP
was gone. This time. They had

121
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,279
I think Annabelle and Cyanide, but
the way they like again they did something

122
00:07:58,279 --> 00:08:01,600
like surprisingly heavy, like a turn
in your arms, deep cut representation,

123
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,360
like they had like black rayin ands
and my other stuff in there as well,

124
00:08:03,399 --> 00:08:05,560
and it was like, you know, it will come back around eventually.

125
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,120
This is obviously just as the Sanguavore
tour, and I just thought it's

126
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:11,800
hilarious that as a band on their
biggest you know, headline tour to date,

127
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:18,360
they can just decide not to do
Susanne or they didn't do Midnight,

128
00:08:18,399 --> 00:08:20,560
which I really wanted to hear in
the encore, but they can go here.

129
00:08:20,639 --> 00:08:22,680
We'll put the room through a nine
in a second. It's just like

130
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:28,000
what they are, unpredictable to a
degree. And then they ended the show,

131
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:33,679
came back out to literally the Blade
Blood ray music like that track was

132
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,559
playing, and Darcy a little vampire
familiar who's been on you know, I

133
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,240
guess if you've not been on the
Creeper social media tour this kind of cycle,

134
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,120
we won't know who the fuck she
was. But she came out with

135
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,120
the decapitated Will gold Head and it
was squirting liquid all over the crowd like

136
00:08:48,159 --> 00:08:50,720
it was a guare show. Obviously
it was meant to be blood. It

137
00:08:50,759 --> 00:08:54,320
looked like water to me, like
it didn't look red or maybe it was

138
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:58,080
like kind of like alien android.
You open them up and there's like white

139
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,679
milk or something inside. But all
the members of Creeper and like say face

140
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,480
and everyone came out and we're just
literally dancing around the stage for a couple

141
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:09,759
of minutes to the Blade Blood Rave
song while darcias stool and squirted Will Gould's

142
00:09:09,759 --> 00:09:13,000
fake head like liquid all over the
front. It was mad and I just

143
00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:18,039
I just loved the fun that was
going on with that. So Creeper was

144
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,200
absolutely brilliant. The very next day, in the very same venue, I

145
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:26,679
went to catch the Cavallera Brothers because
I thought it was frankly a little bit

146
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,399
mad that we were going to be
able to get to see all of the

147
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,039
Morbid Vision's best, all devastation stuff
that they've just released those re recordings of.

148
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,360
I wanted to see that. It's
the first one I've done of these

149
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,200
like Cavallera album tours they've done,
and it's like the cultest one, and

150
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,360
particularly in a venue of that size, because it's like Sepulchera and the Cavalira's

151
00:09:41,399 --> 00:09:45,360
got, you know, so big
and so iconic that they can pull in

152
00:09:45,399 --> 00:09:46,919
this big amount of people. And
I wonder how many people were there.

153
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:48,519
I was like, Oh, the
Cavalleras, and they're thinking they're going to

154
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:52,320
see roots, bloody roots. Instead
they get Funeral Rites and Antichrist. It

155
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,000
shouldn't have been in that room.
It was like surreal. It was like

156
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,559
a full on first wave black metal
show, like their Sarcophago in front of

157
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:05,159
several thousand people like Max was wearing
like a huge spiked bracer like he was

158
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,840
in Gorgaov. He had a bullet
belt draped over his mic stand and he's

159
00:10:07,919 --> 00:10:13,080
yelling about real Brazilian black metal between
songs. It's brilliant. They're doing a

160
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,240
bit of schizophrenia stuff as well,
like Max is, you know, he's

161
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,080
not a really at full capacity live
anymore, Egor fucking is, let me

162
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,440
tell you that. And then they
brought out JJ, the current singer from

163
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,759
Discharge, and Shane Embury and they
did a cover of Protest and Survive by

164
00:10:28,759 --> 00:10:33,519
Discharge. Just such a fun experience. Max is just like beaming, having

165
00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:35,360
the time of his life. He
genuinely seemed to make up like half of

166
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,919
what he did on stage, like
on the fly for most of the set.

167
00:10:39,159 --> 00:10:41,639
Really was to the point where they
ended, you know, Priss' Vive

168
00:10:41,639 --> 00:10:45,360
obviously got Shane Embury there. He
just turns around to Egor and goes,

169
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:50,080
do you suffer? Do you suffer? And then finally a couple of nights

170
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,000
ago I went to see Queens of
stone Age on their UK arena at all

171
00:10:54,039 --> 00:10:56,559
and normally I would come on here
particularly there's other shows. Having spoken about

172
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,320
them, I would go, yeah, they were brilliant, I love them,

173
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,559
and move on fairly quickly. Obviously, with the very very well timed

174
00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:05,799
news that they were headlining Download for
the first time next year, I went

175
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,639
into this show, which I was
really excited for anyway, with a renewed

176
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,480
sort of like you know, oh, this is the band that's going to

177
00:11:11,519 --> 00:11:13,919
be doing that next year. You
know, that's kind of assess where they're

178
00:11:13,919 --> 00:11:16,639
at right now. It looked really
well sold in terms of, like you

179
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,960
know, seating all the way around
was like very populated. I have seen

180
00:11:22,519 --> 00:11:26,080
three Queens of Stone Age shows over
the last six years since the Villain's cycle.

181
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:31,399
They have been truly fucking sensational every
time, like minimum nine out of

182
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,919
ten for every one of those shows. I genuinely think it is like them

183
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:39,720
and Nine Inch Nails of that generation
of live bands who are like still that

184
00:11:39,879 --> 00:11:41,759
good, Like you could throw a
tool in there as well, But like

185
00:11:41,799 --> 00:11:43,360
that's the camp that I'm talking about
people from that kind of era in time.

186
00:11:43,919 --> 00:11:48,559
Is five guys who have been played
together for like ten years now in

187
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,399
this form, like they haven't had
a lineup change since John Theodore joined on

188
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,799
drums from the Mars Volta, who
have incredible chemistry, Like it is a

189
00:11:54,799 --> 00:11:58,320
blast to watch those guys play.
The stage in was cool, like they

190
00:12:00,159 --> 00:12:01,840
they brought their own pyramid stage from
Glastonbury or something that kind of like the

191
00:12:03,039 --> 00:12:05,679
you know, just the triangle over
changing colored lights and stuff. But mainly

192
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,720
you get to watch John Theodore play
drums, You get to watch Mikey Shoes,

193
00:12:09,919 --> 00:12:13,320
you get to watch Josh Homy master
of the art of hip shaking dancing

194
00:12:13,399 --> 00:12:18,600
while playing guitar. They just like
exhude rock and roll energy and they play

195
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:24,000
with a ridiculous power for a band
kind of in their position. They open

196
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:28,639
with No One Knows, which is
like, obviously big shit. I was

197
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,759
like, throw over their their summer
festival circuit they did. I was watching

198
00:12:31,759 --> 00:12:35,360
loads of sets on YouTube, and
most of it they were opening either with

199
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,799
No One Knows or go with the
Flow, which is equally arguably one of

200
00:12:39,799 --> 00:12:43,200
your two big hits in it,
Like yeah, and then I was actually

201
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,480
I looked at the other setlist for
the other nights they've done on this tour,

202
00:12:45,919 --> 00:12:48,879
and mostly they've been opening with regular
John from the Health Outed album into

203
00:12:48,919 --> 00:12:52,080
them No One Knows, which is
great, But this they did No one

204
00:12:52,159 --> 00:12:56,960
knows straight into first it giveth like
it is on the album, which is

205
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,960
the most I have had a song
like throw Me off Balance by surprise I

206
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,440
have had in a while. I
could not believe they were playing that song.

207
00:13:05,519 --> 00:13:07,480
That is like, you know,
it's like one of my childhood favorite

208
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,120
songs, you know, when I
first got songs for the Death and I'd

209
00:13:11,159 --> 00:13:16,720
never seen them do it and make
this set list no one knows firsticlith smooth

210
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,519
Sailing, My God is the Sun, That that is God tear Shit and

211
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,039
yeah, I saw that run and
I was like, that is ridiculous.

212
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:26,600
People that are download there's no one
arguing you. Are you worthy of headlining?

213
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,440
It's unbelievable. And like they've been
mixing up again each night what songs

214
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,480
they were playing from the new album, which like that you know the fact

215
00:13:33,519 --> 00:13:37,000
that they have not just prepared the
same stock set of songs for a hole

216
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,559
rather than you've seen them do every
single song in that same order forever.

217
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,039
Anyway, Like they are genuinely spontaneous. They're kind of clutch esque in terms

218
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,600
of like how they can just change
their minds on the day and go,

219
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:46,399
yeah, I think that one instead, you know, like a real band

220
00:13:46,399 --> 00:13:50,240
who know their shit and who care. He goes like, here's a song

221
00:13:50,279 --> 00:13:52,519
from Rated R and I'm like,
Okay, what's it gonna be? Feel

222
00:13:52,519 --> 00:13:54,759
good hit of the summer, Lost
Art of Keeping a Secret. Nope,

223
00:13:54,799 --> 00:13:58,360
it's I Think I Lost my Headache, the woozy Bad Trip song at the

224
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,399
end of that album that on the
record go into that like horrible out of

225
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:07,279
tune trumpet, that whole thing live
they kind of slam into like speeding the

226
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,720
riff up and doing this like weird
speed metal version dead No. And then

227
00:14:09,799 --> 00:14:13,639
they've still got, you know,
for to end the encore, they've got

228
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,919
paper Machetty go with the flow and
that ending of song for the Dead.

229
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:20,600
Like, I think they are just
about the best rock band that you can

230
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:22,200
go and see in an arena.
So to be honest, if they have

231
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,240
any problem with download next year,
I think it's you guys that's the problem

232
00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:31,720
and not them. Right news,
we have a lot of festival stuff to

233
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,559
begin with. We've got an update
on our favorite festival when we were young.

234
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,720
Our favorite festival that none of us
have any I guess immediate plans to

235
00:14:41,759 --> 00:14:46,279
be going to is in America when
we were young, festival. I seem

236
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,840
to remember. Maybe I just get
confused with Sidney World and everything else that's

237
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,279
going on over there. We knew
most of the bands that were playing,

238
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,639
right, like the actual lineup itself, I think had been out there for

239
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,440
there was one that just happened quite
recently. This is the Lace. This

240
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:05,440
is the newest announcement. They just
out there, twenty twenty four edition.

241
00:15:05,519 --> 00:15:07,600
I seem to have it in my
memory that the actual bands were playing.

242
00:15:07,639 --> 00:15:11,360
But what any either way, what
becomes it's the same lineup as the maybe

243
00:15:11,559 --> 00:15:18,000
I say. What has certainly been
announced this week is the frankly ludicrous news

244
00:15:18,639 --> 00:15:24,799
that every single band on this lineup, apart from seemingly fall that boy and

245
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:31,519
quite humorously ells June's the band who
currently have one album It's easy do it.

246
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:39,240
But every band apart from those on
this god forsaken lineup is going to

247
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:46,840
be performing an album in full.
Which, okay, there's a couple on

248
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,840
there where you go, yeah,
you'd see it. How the fuck have

249
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,159
we reached this point? What's this? Is it? Because you go,

250
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,519
like you could actually go Mierican mcroma
is playing the Black Parade in full of

251
00:15:56,519 --> 00:15:58,519
course, I want to see that. I mean, part of means to

252
00:15:58,519 --> 00:16:02,960
be like, well, like didn't
kind of take the piss out of the

253
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,799
cynical corporate nostalgia of this last time, and now they're coming back. You

254
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:08,759
know, I've not been to any
of the MCR reunion shows yet. I

255
00:16:08,799 --> 00:16:11,279
know obviously if you have, maybe
it feel differently. I would rather se

256
00:16:11,279 --> 00:16:15,240
an MCR set. I would rather
just see an MCR set because I mean,

257
00:16:15,279 --> 00:16:17,840
I saw that, but I'd still
happily see the Black Trade in Fall.

258
00:16:18,559 --> 00:16:22,399
But that and then you go like
Bleed American in all of course.

259
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,559
I want to see Bleed American in
Fall, like because that album is front

260
00:16:25,559 --> 00:16:29,240
to back. They've done that before. That's crazy, you meant, well,

261
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:30,480
they do albums in four every now
and then they will just decide to

262
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,919
do it like Thursday Full Collapse.
If that came down or the tour,

263
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,879
I'd go to it. I think
they've probably done that before maybe as well.

264
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,759
But we we talk a lot about
when we were young and the kind

265
00:16:41,759 --> 00:16:45,720
of pairs that were slammed on.
We're slam on SAT right now. Yeah,

266
00:16:47,639 --> 00:16:52,200
the awful nostalgia side of it.
This is one of the most insane

267
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:56,879
fucking decisions I could imagine this festival
doing Elliott You we were talking about this

268
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,200
quite you know, heatedly in our
group chat the and you summed up I

269
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:04,759
think exactly what the problem is in
terms of like doing this as nostalgia bait.

270
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,480
Well, yeah, because this sort
of thing, you could at least

271
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,400
see it working for another festival.
But when we were young, which is

272
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:18,200
all about getting your elder emos together, drinking whatever the American equivalent of sours

273
00:17:18,279 --> 00:17:22,039
is, and spending a stupid amount
of money, and then you go and

274
00:17:22,079 --> 00:17:26,920
party two the hits, the emo
pop punk hits of the mid two thousands.

275
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:32,920
With this lineup, you're gonna be
standing there watching deep cuts of say

276
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:37,880
Anything, Viva la Copra. Where
is the party there? Like, the

277
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,920
problem is is they've already exhausted their
lineup, so they have to bring back

278
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,480
the same lineup they've basically booked now
and they needed to come up with a

279
00:17:45,519 --> 00:17:49,839
new hook. So they're like albums
and I'm like, okay, but I

280
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,839
like a lot of these albums,
Like I was saying, like Census Foult

281
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,119
the one I pick because I think
still searching on a great album. I

282
00:17:56,359 --> 00:18:00,839
don't see the point in doing that
at a festival, Like this isn't you

283
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:06,279
know, Damnation where it's a it's
a music fan who is actually genuine.

284
00:18:06,279 --> 00:18:12,160
This isn't very curated, you know. And again it's like fucking like Cobra

285
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,920
Starship and there's stuff, you know, if you brooke like Cobra stars you

286
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,519
can at Slamong and the Clash.
I go watch them for the novelty.

287
00:18:18,599 --> 00:18:22,079
I don't want to see a fucking
Cobra Starship album. In the Red Jumpsuit

288
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:29,279
Apparatus literal one hit Wonders, two
hits, I can't tell you the second

289
00:18:29,319 --> 00:18:36,079
hit to Your Angel. Everyone's saying
in this world apparatus, one hit Wonders.

290
00:18:36,599 --> 00:18:41,599
Who wants to see the rest Crown. They're gonna put a crowd they

291
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:44,079
will not name. But then,
like Elliott says, people will go and

292
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:48,640
see it and then realize they don't
know that the album, So like,

293
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:53,400
if they're smart, they're gonna That's
what it's fucking deranged. That's what I

294
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,720
don't get because it's like, like
you said, you're gonna see Red Jumsuit

295
00:18:56,759 --> 00:19:00,960
oparatus. If it's four songs in, you're not stay till the end.

296
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,359
So you get like Metallica did the
Black album, and they weren't confident enough

297
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,640
that people were gonna stick it all
the way through. And then we have

298
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,519
fucking I don't even remember who's on
the Bunny, the Bear, snow Whites,

299
00:19:11,559 --> 00:19:12,480
Poison Bite, just make them up. I don't know. Just playing

300
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,599
it just appalled it. And again
the mikem thing, like, are we

301
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,559
already over the fact that Mike Kemmer
back. I know it kind of got

302
00:19:19,599 --> 00:19:22,559
delayed, but it's like, if
led Zeppelin came back, you wouldn't be

303
00:19:22,559 --> 00:19:25,920
two years in going off. Could
you just do led Zeppelin two in full

304
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:30,440
please? It's like, well,
we already need special sets and maybe that's

305
00:19:30,079 --> 00:19:34,319
delaying on getting any more new material
out, but like fucking that. The

306
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:40,039
moment that Sebastian the Crab from Simple
Plan walks out in front of that crowd

307
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,519
and goes, hey, we've been
invited here to play, no pads,

308
00:19:42,519 --> 00:19:47,400
no helmets, just balls in full. Thank you for joining us, is

309
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:52,400
the moment that a black hole of
fucking you know, creative bankruptcy opens up

310
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,839
under when we were young, festival
sucks in the entire planet around us and

311
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,440
lets us be born in you.
And that's not even the worst one.

312
00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:03,960
Three oh three is on there?
Who does anyone consider that three h three

313
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:10,079
album like a classic by any measure, like one or two popular songs on

314
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:14,400
it. Again, if they're not
at the end one song that it's not

315
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,200
aged particularly well. I mean that's
not really the point of when we were

316
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,680
young. But you just think you're
gonna give them, what forty five minutes

317
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:26,400
to an hour? Is this necessary? Like it's one of those people like

318
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,000
genuinely excited about the fourth pierced of
our playing Collide with the Sky in four

319
00:20:30,039 --> 00:20:33,079
and I was just like, is
this where we're at? Are we are?

320
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,160
We? Like, come on please? There is no like and again

321
00:20:36,559 --> 00:20:38,759
there are there are like scarce.
It's like we talked about on the Summer

322
00:20:38,799 --> 00:20:41,480
Roulette four you strong doing Enemy of
the World in fall. That's when you

323
00:20:41,599 --> 00:20:44,559
kind of go, well, no, that's a whole set that you actually

324
00:20:44,799 --> 00:20:49,400
like, oh you take that,
but as a whole it's so so baffling

325
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:55,519
with and again the nostalgia thing regressing
to the point of like genuinely taking step

326
00:20:55,599 --> 00:21:00,720
backs in like terms of representation,
in terms of like the content of the

327
00:21:00,799 --> 00:21:03,759
music being like stuff that like we
can leave that in the naughties now at

328
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:07,480
this point, and it's just been
such a boring like even I'm like a

329
00:21:07,519 --> 00:21:11,440
person who likes naught easy, no
nostalgia. It's just looking at this like

330
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:17,160
going too far. Quite hilariously,
they heard the concerns about the lack of

331
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:22,119
you know, particularly female but in
general, you know, gender diversity representation

332
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,240
on this because of the time when
they're kind of focusing on and they went,

333
00:21:25,279 --> 00:21:33,880
okay, well a millionaires genuinely like
an actual millionaires playing their seminal ep

334
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,400
cash only Like this was the point
where I was like, this is it

335
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:42,440
now? Is this the win we
were after for representation veronicas on it,

336
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,680
you know, if they didn't done
it before, to be honest, but

337
00:21:45,759 --> 00:21:49,240
yeah, I mean, like it's
to me, it's the idea. Is

338
00:21:49,279 --> 00:21:52,880
the actual logic of this of like
when we were young, from the moment

339
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,920
appeared, has always represented a kind
of like just backwards nostalgification of current day

340
00:21:59,079 --> 00:22:04,880
rock music, and this announcement is
both even like the nostalgia FESTI were going

341
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:10,599
even further into that where it's literally
is you know, outlawing anything released after

342
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:15,039
fucking two thousand and nine or whatever, But like Elliott's saying, it will

343
00:22:15,039 --> 00:22:18,160
be actively worse for the attendees who
are wanting to go just to kind of

344
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,880
mindlessly have fun because they're gonna find
themselves. Oh no, what is track

345
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,119
eight on the State Champs album that
they're playing Like, I don't know this,

346
00:22:26,319 --> 00:22:30,839
I just want their hits, So
it's it's more nostalgia and also worse

347
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:36,200
for the target. Denu Graphy,
It's just absolutely fucking fuck. It's a

348
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:37,200
trick to get people saying, Oh, I'm gonna love all these alms and

349
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:38,880
you're gonna go no, but you
don't just love these ABMs. You love

350
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,240
the four hits of that as yeah, and then you don't know any of

351
00:22:41,279 --> 00:22:45,480
the other songs, So what's the
point. It's a fucking brain dead exercise,

352
00:22:45,559 --> 00:22:47,880
is what it is. And I
just I thought it was fake when

353
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:52,200
it first casts, like this can't
be real. It's absolutely bananas too.

354
00:22:52,599 --> 00:22:56,720
Watch Tool, Ah, this is
fucking you know. We're in the housey

355
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,440
and days, aren't we. If
you could have told old, you know,

356
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,559
mister try Beza and mister Stephen Hill
many a year a year ago,

357
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,440
that we'd have like two Tool tours
in like a couple of years, and

358
00:23:04,519 --> 00:23:07,200
there'd be a bunch of people who
went to the first one go yeah,

359
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,480
I think I could skip this one. Is we are in, you know,

360
00:23:08,519 --> 00:23:12,559
the golden times for a UK Tool
fans. In particular, they've announced

361
00:23:12,599 --> 00:23:18,000
they're going to be returning to the
UK and Europe next year in kind of

362
00:23:18,279 --> 00:23:21,480
late May early June time. I
will not be going. It clashes with

363
00:23:21,519 --> 00:23:23,519
Fortress Festival. But like I said, I feel like I got my big

364
00:23:23,519 --> 00:23:26,720
Tool experience on the tour like eighteen
months ago or whatever. It was,

365
00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:30,519
so happy days for you know,
all the Tool fans, either see them

366
00:23:30,559 --> 00:23:33,480
for the first time or going back
for round two. This is, I

367
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,400
guess the second most like a bit
of news this week after everything we've just

368
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:44,480
spoken about Slipknot. We spoke extentively
last week about the fact that Jay Weinberg

369
00:23:44,599 --> 00:23:48,079
was quite unceremoniously ousted from the band, and we were like, surely,

370
00:23:48,279 --> 00:23:52,400
when you're seemingly closing in on the
end days of your career anyway, you

371
00:23:52,559 --> 00:23:56,720
just stick with the drummer that you
already have, who has proven very adept

372
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,079
at the job for the remainder of
the you know, these last few years.

373
00:23:59,519 --> 00:24:03,759
We know exactly what was the reasoning
was there, but there is heavy,

374
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:11,440
heavy speculation right now that the identity
of their replacement drummer has kind of

375
00:24:11,559 --> 00:24:17,519
made its way onto the internet through
someone else who conveniently left their band about

376
00:24:17,559 --> 00:24:23,079
two or three days before this whole
thing went down, posting and then deleting

377
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:27,799
something. If you are going,
oh man, will Mike Portnoy skip out

378
00:24:27,799 --> 00:24:30,440
on Dreamfitter once again to go and
play? You know, I'm thin gonna

379
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:36,799
get Dave Lombardo like the Misfits and
everyone else. It is apparently, if

380
00:24:36,839 --> 00:24:38,799
all of this is to be,
you know, believed, mister Jeremy Kling,

381
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,720
who recently the band he left a
few days ago is none other than

382
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:49,079
venom Ink, the second Venom Now. I am a black metal idiot,

383
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:53,519
right I last summer, in fact, I watched venom Ink playing the entirety

384
00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:57,519
of the black Metal record at Bloodstock, and I had the fucking time of

385
00:24:57,559 --> 00:25:03,440
my life. I love venom I
love particularly stupid extended stream metal drummers,

386
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,039
all these underground people, right,
they never get their jews in the mainstream

387
00:25:07,079 --> 00:25:08,319
whatever it's like. You know,
Alex Bent was one of them. In

388
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,559
Trivia. He was playing like brain
Drill or something, and then sudden he

389
00:25:11,559 --> 00:25:14,279
became a bit of a metal celebrity
because he joined massive band. But there

390
00:25:14,279 --> 00:25:18,400
are a million olexpents out there who
are super adept playing in pretty underground bands

391
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:19,000
who will just you know, they
will never see the light of day in

392
00:25:19,039 --> 00:25:26,880
terms of the wider metal consciousness.
So this is no me casting judgment on

393
00:25:26,519 --> 00:25:30,880
Jeremy Kling's abilities or anything. But
you show me the headlines slip Not recruit

394
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:37,880
venom Ink drummer, and I go, what the fucking I mean? Can

395
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,839
you imagine the phone call like,
sorry, a bits hide up with venom

396
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,359
Ink. At the moment, I'm
not sure I'll be able to just like,

397
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,680
it's the fact that it's Venom right, the guy who actually Venamink is

398
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:52,599
the second Venom initially they had is
a Baden was the original Venom? Yeah?

399
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,480
Yeah, it was him a mantass
and he left Venomink. I don't

400
00:25:56,519 --> 00:25:59,119
know. I'm not sure if it
was a whether he couldn't play anymore or

401
00:25:59,319 --> 00:26:02,440
was something going on, but he
left them, So it's the guy they

402
00:26:02,519 --> 00:26:07,880
got to play the parts of the
guy on Black Metal and Welcome to Hell,

403
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:12,039
which are let's say it kindly,
they are not slipknot standard recording.

404
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:19,160
Shall we say of all the bands, and Jay is Again there might be

405
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,440
some things behind the scenes, but
Jay is very capable, which makes it

406
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,599
even more the idea that you'd be
you'd already have j in your band,

407
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,000
and then they'd be watching Venamink and
go, oh, we got to step

408
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,640
our game up, like I can't. I wonder if this is true.

409
00:26:36,279 --> 00:26:38,200
They'll probably never tell us, but
I need to know how this happened.

410
00:26:38,559 --> 00:26:41,519
Yeah, I mean, maybe it
won't be true. I don't know.

411
00:26:41,559 --> 00:26:44,039
Maybe able to sort of jump in
the gun. I will say, like

412
00:26:44,039 --> 00:26:48,440
I said Jeremy Kling, he was
probably overqualified to be in Venamink. Right.

413
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,559
Most extreme metal drummers in the year
twenty twenty three are most people are?

414
00:26:55,279 --> 00:26:59,039
They're better than you know the drummer
from Venom in nineteen eighty one,

415
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:00,920
right, And I say that as
someone who believes Venom in nineteen eighty one

416
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,880
are one of the best fucking bands
to ever do it. But he was

417
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,920
probably ever qualified to be in Venom
Right. He could probably have a pretty

418
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,960
good crack some Slipknot songs. All
I'm saying is it's a really funny headline.

419
00:27:11,039 --> 00:27:15,160
Slipno recruit venom Ink drummer it's like, what the It's like anyone's got

420
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,920
a shot, you know, like
it could be it's like when he you

421
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,599
know, I suppose when they got
the man and he was in like crocodile

422
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,839
or whatever. It was like what
it's like everyone truly, if you think

423
00:27:25,839 --> 00:27:27,880
you're down in your luck, if
you think you're you're nobody, you two

424
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:33,920
could be in slipnot one day,
so you know, hold up hope Sugar

425
00:27:33,519 --> 00:27:37,519
are going to be headlining next year's
twenty twenty four's up Tangent Festival. I

426
00:27:37,559 --> 00:27:40,880
don't know if they've done that before, and I think they probably have,

427
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,920
but that feels like a very standard
capable will do a blood a good job.

428
00:27:45,279 --> 00:27:51,279
Headliner Lamb of God have announced their
details for the lineup for their upcoming

429
00:27:51,599 --> 00:27:55,759
headbangers Boat, their cruise they do. The latest one concluded not long ago,

430
00:27:56,319 --> 00:28:00,960
this will be taking place the end
of October the beginning of November.

431
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,160
We don't normally talk about, you
know, because there are loads of bands

432
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:03,599
you do things like this. We
don't want to talk about this. The

433
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:08,400
reason I put this one in is
I'm annoyed at it because taking place around

434
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:14,559
November I means it takes place as
it happens of the same weekend as one

435
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:18,960
Damnation festival in Manchester, UK,
and just last week on our review episode,

436
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,640
we were theorizing about some bands that
we'd really love to see booked,

437
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:27,200
particularly one with the initials BT who
are not Buried Tomorrow, but as there

438
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:32,680
were even others where we were going
that they'd be good and Gavin from Damnation

439
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:37,720
saw this news and literally posted online
there's a bunch of fucking future bookings literally

440
00:28:37,759 --> 00:28:41,559
down the river. I am.
I am so annoyed that Bleeding Through are

441
00:28:41,559 --> 00:28:45,559
going to be in the Dominican Republic
and not in a fucking industrial estate in

442
00:28:45,599 --> 00:28:49,799
Manchester. Come, how dare they? How fucking there? They cowards?

443
00:28:49,839 --> 00:28:53,599
Way out? Yeah, I look
listen, You're like, it's a really

444
00:28:53,599 --> 00:28:56,039
fucking good lineup, but I am
bummed out that there and stuff. I

445
00:28:56,079 --> 00:28:59,440
was like, I look at it. There is a lot you could have

446
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,920
seen on Damnation, Frozen Soul,
I Hate God, Napalm, Deaf,

447
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:07,000
like Poison the World Still, you
know they've bead for how long now and

448
00:29:07,119 --> 00:29:10,000
never fucking touch in UK soil.
I feel like it's particularly the metal core

449
00:29:10,039 --> 00:29:12,480
one because the big addition with Damination
this year that we were talking about,

450
00:29:12,559 --> 00:29:15,039
is the sort of the mid afternoon
metal core thing they kind of know.

451
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,079
They sort of experimented with it with
Unearth played in the Oncoming Storm and it

452
00:29:18,119 --> 00:29:21,039
went down really well, and a
lot of people are being like, we

453
00:29:21,039 --> 00:29:23,319
should make that a thing, and
people throwing around other bands and you know,

454
00:29:23,359 --> 00:29:26,359
the kind of test, what damnation
is metalcore mid afternoon? It's not

455
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:30,519
going to be spirit Box, right, It's going to be bands of that

456
00:29:30,599 --> 00:29:33,680
sort of ilk of that particular time
in demographic and number one on our hitlist,

457
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,079
people like get bleed Through doing this
is love, this is murderous.

458
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:41,000
But if that fails, right,
chime Era doing the Impossibility of Reasons would

459
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,480
be pretty good. Poison the Well
is obviously a massive dream. And this

460
00:29:44,559 --> 00:29:48,079
fucking tour boat comes along knocks out
a whole bunch of them. It's like

461
00:29:48,119 --> 00:29:51,960
the first like like four of like
the five slots that you have for that

462
00:29:52,079 --> 00:29:56,400
go oh no, they're all fucking
in the Dominican Republic And how dare they?

463
00:29:56,319 --> 00:30:00,799
As much as this is just jealousy
talking, I'll look at that lineup

464
00:30:00,799 --> 00:30:06,079
and I go, are they cruise
liner bands? Fits for a cruise line?

465
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:07,640
No? No, I'm in the
industrial seat. That's been a weird

466
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,319
question for a long time now,
ever since you know, seventy thousand metal

467
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,759
tons of metal started running this.
This is purely selfish. Now, this

468
00:30:14,839 --> 00:30:17,279
is just the first time I thought
with this because it's burned me personally for

469
00:30:17,319 --> 00:30:18,599
the first time. But so many
bands now do these cruises. It's like

470
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,599
Megadeth, I've had one, you
know, Kiss have done, There's Parahoy

471
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,680
all of that. It's like,
I think, now too many bands doing

472
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:29,440
cruises because it's taking bands off the
market in other areas that kind of key

473
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,400
points. Do the fucking grind come
on to a normal person, don't fuck

474
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,519
off to you know, four boats
a year over the course of things,

475
00:30:36,559 --> 00:30:40,200
it takes off the circuit. So
you know, have a nice time everyone,

476
00:30:40,279 --> 00:30:42,960
but boo down with it. I
will get my hopes up slightly more.

477
00:30:44,599 --> 00:30:48,319
The Decibel Metal and Beer Festival has
been announced, which takes place in

478
00:30:48,359 --> 00:30:55,200
Philadelphia in April of next year.
I look at this Decibel Festival almost as

479
00:30:55,480 --> 00:31:00,319
like US Damnation, right because literally
in the past Damnation has booked sets that

480
00:31:00,359 --> 00:31:03,440
will essentially happened there, like Peace
Droy doing Prowl than the art happened for

481
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,880
the first time at this festival.
I think converged of Dun Jane Do,

482
00:31:07,839 --> 00:31:08,720
and that is not just light there
are There're been many many sets that have

483
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,519
happened here that have not made their
way over here and have been exclusives there.

484
00:31:11,559 --> 00:31:15,440
But I do look at this and
go I'd take Crowbar do an odd

485
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,720
fella's rest. Yeah, I mean
Deoside. I've seen them do Legion this

486
00:31:18,799 --> 00:31:21,440
year, but this time they seem
to be doing Dioside, the self titled

487
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,640
Legion, and Once Upon a Cross
all in one. I guess they're all

488
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,599
half an hour long. Fine,
even Bayer has a doing Urban Discipline.

489
00:31:30,599 --> 00:31:33,519
If you gotta get bleeding through,
fuck it. Do them good. Good

490
00:31:33,519 --> 00:31:37,519
lineup. I mean it's fucking it's
a mean lineup. Bio has a Dioside

491
00:31:37,599 --> 00:31:41,839
Jesus piece, an old school set
from Dying Fetus two inches to murmur.

492
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:47,680
Those goths, they're going to be
stuffed in's their locker so fast? Yeah,

493
00:31:47,759 --> 00:31:51,440
so good stuff. They're okay.
A few bits of new music before

494
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,680
we carry on into questions and then
into the that's your second podcast that we're

495
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,559
recording tonight as we sit here.
First up, I suppose the biggest piece

496
00:31:59,559 --> 00:32:04,559
of news news is that Harriots have
signed to one of the larger metal labels

497
00:32:04,599 --> 00:32:07,279
in our world, Century Media,
and to sort of, you know,

498
00:32:07,519 --> 00:32:10,759
announce this, they've released a new
track called Soul Chasm. It's been I

499
00:32:10,799 --> 00:32:15,599
guess a little while since I last
listened to whatever the latest Harriet release was.

500
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:19,839
I forgot how HM two E they
are. Like, I put this

501
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:24,359
on, and this really feels to
me more like fuming mouthful Nails or something.

502
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,559
Then it does code orange this,
particularly with this sort of mid pace

503
00:32:28,559 --> 00:32:30,680
that this song has. This sounds
to me like a band who was sixteen

504
00:32:30,759 --> 00:32:35,039
years old when Nails released Wide Open
Wound. And I look at that and

505
00:32:35,079 --> 00:32:38,839
I relate, and I go,
yeah, this just sounds nasty and scuzzy

506
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,920
in like it's kind of got that
mid tempo industrial thing that you know,

507
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,039
you can kind link to it like
a code on whatever, but it's way

508
00:32:45,079 --> 00:32:47,680
more just dirty and dirty. And
like I said that the HM two sort

509
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:52,960
of thing really like caked in filth. But I think this is really cool.

510
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,200
Yeah. When I saw that the
newsage Sciences of the Century Media,

511
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,440
I didn't know if that was going
to hold some kind of change in sound

512
00:32:58,559 --> 00:33:02,039
and you know, not really like
it's as cruel and bruising as any Harriet

513
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:06,519
June today, so it's more of
the same, but you know, it's

514
00:33:06,519 --> 00:33:08,519
a taste that I don't get sick
of. Yeah, hopefully this does mean

515
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:15,640
a new album on that label in
the new year. Perhaps Darkest Hour is

516
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,440
a band I'd have on that fucking
metal course slot. Darkest Hour have announced

517
00:33:19,519 --> 00:33:22,319
their new album. It's called Perpetual
Terminal. It's been We've been talking about,

518
00:33:22,359 --> 00:33:24,759
I guess, sort of waiting for
a Darkest Hour album for quite a

519
00:33:24,799 --> 00:33:28,680
long time now. It's been,
like I suppose when this comes out,

520
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,839
it has been about seven years since
that latest Darkest Hour record, which was

521
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:37,359
really fucking good. It's like probably
top two, certainly top three records they've

522
00:33:37,359 --> 00:33:40,119
ever released in my opinion, and
that was the one where they had Kurt

523
00:33:40,119 --> 00:33:45,160
Balue producing, so it was absolutely
fucking destructive. This is, you know,

524
00:33:45,279 --> 00:33:46,519
maybe less in that direction, but
I did put this on and go,

525
00:33:46,559 --> 00:33:52,279
oh a reminder like Slaughter of the
Soul Corps can be fucking good.

526
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:57,160
Yeah, Darkest Hour. They're a
weird one because they're kind of a staple

527
00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:00,400
of those New England metal and hardcore
festival kind of thing or Summer Slaughter when

528
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:05,799
that was a thing. But they're
kind of underrated at the same time.

529
00:34:05,839 --> 00:34:07,320
I think it's because they never really
had that much of a run, so

530
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,400
they could never get the kind of
the classic era of dark style. But

531
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:15,679
they have great records and really like
kind of almost hear it on a smaller

532
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:21,440
ear of defining songs, I think, and this is another just a really

533
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,719
good chewn like like you say,
six years away, close to seven now,

534
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:30,840
it's just high quality at the Gates
core and that's that's good. Yeah,

535
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:35,119
I don't I like, I still
really rate that last Out at the

536
00:34:35,119 --> 00:34:37,079
Gates. I'm last after album.
We've said Out the Gates so much,

537
00:34:37,679 --> 00:34:40,679
but like and again they're having that
cur but this is yeah, it's just

538
00:34:42,079 --> 00:34:45,280
it's not you know, rocking the
Boat is not changing anything up too much,

539
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:49,039
but those riffs and that that that
thought of the soul core at the

540
00:34:49,039 --> 00:34:52,239
Gates wherever you want to call it, you're never gonna turn your nose up

541
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:53,639
at it when it sounds this good. I think it's just confirmation that,

542
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,159
you know, we did really like
that last album with you know, the

543
00:34:57,199 --> 00:34:59,920
show was very positive about it at
the time, and it's been a lot

544
00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:01,440
time since they actually, you know, release that, so it's nice to

545
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:06,519
have, you know, oh,
finally they're doing something else. And Esan

546
00:35:07,199 --> 00:35:12,159
has announced his new album. It
is self titled Funnily Enough, a bit

547
00:35:12,159 --> 00:35:15,440
of a strange thing to do when
you're like the man, but that is

548
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,679
going to be coming out in February. This has actually been the first it's

549
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:22,320
been a little while we had an
Eson album. He's done things like EPs

550
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,280
and whatnot in that time, which
have been very good. But it is

551
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:30,039
in fact going to be about five
six years since the latest proper full length

552
00:35:30,119 --> 00:35:32,480
album from Esan, so it's been
a little while. He was very productive

553
00:35:32,559 --> 00:35:37,719
during the kind of you know,
his earlier solo years, and this is

554
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,400
actually it's been announced. It's kind
of two albums since there's a sort of

555
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:44,280
orchestral version and the metal version.
Sometimes I look at that and go,

556
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:46,039
I'll probably listen to one of those, right, which I don't know if

557
00:35:46,039 --> 00:35:50,159
that's the case, I don't know. But this track that he's released from

558
00:35:50,159 --> 00:35:55,079
this is so extreme and heavy,
like full Esan fucking fury, but the

559
00:35:55,119 --> 00:36:01,639
strings on it and the orchestration is
fucking mental, and hearing that just like,

560
00:36:01,679 --> 00:36:07,440
you know, absolutely absurd. Over
the top icy, windstorm bluster,

561
00:36:07,559 --> 00:36:10,440
symphonic. East Side material has this
like this is now you know, like

562
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:15,000
this is for like very early next
year. This is the record I'm gonna

563
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,559
be waiting to get my clause into. I was talking to people who've heard

564
00:36:16,559 --> 00:36:19,280
this record as well, and they
were saying, it's very, very good,

565
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,199
So I'm really excited for this.
Yeah. I they never really understood

566
00:36:22,199 --> 00:36:28,480
why eas Son kind of got swept
in with the likes of Catatonial latter era

567
00:36:28,519 --> 00:36:30,159
ope, that kind of moody or
slower thing, because he does it really

568
00:36:30,159 --> 00:36:35,519
well. He does do that really
well, but he also does, like

569
00:36:35,559 --> 00:36:38,079
you say, this mental kind of
savage, white hot, avant garde metal

570
00:36:38,639 --> 00:36:43,400
that's kind of unlike anyone else,
like everyone clamoring for empersor to release new

571
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,000
music. It's like, listen to
east Side, it's probably gonna sound like

572
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:49,920
that anyway. And this song is
fucking great. I mean you say it

573
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,159
is a self titled album and it's
weird. It's also a concept album,

574
00:36:52,199 --> 00:36:59,880
which sounds rather big headed. But
this tune is like it's four minutes long,

575
00:37:00,079 --> 00:37:04,960
and to kind of invert that cliche, it feels longer because so much

576
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,760
stuff happens like you say, when
those strings come in, it's just like

577
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:14,199
it's dizzying, and it's the sort
of thing that thirty years of crafting some

578
00:37:14,199 --> 00:37:17,920
of the most forward thinking metal ever. It's this kind of skill palette that

579
00:37:19,119 --> 00:37:22,039
only those people have and we should
cherish it. Yeah, it's like you're

580
00:37:22,039 --> 00:37:24,280
saying about like Emperor for Me are
like, you know, easily like kind

581
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,719
of top ten favorite bands of all
time. And I had to almost like

582
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:29,880
you know, switch my brain and
I like, oh yeah, Like that's

583
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,679
the guy right there, and this
is the music he's making and it's fucking

584
00:37:32,679 --> 00:37:37,119
sweet. So February is sign record
coming around. Get excited. Questions at

585
00:37:37,119 --> 00:37:40,639
this time. Returning to Hyperblasts after
last week, they come from that focus

586
00:37:40,639 --> 00:37:44,440
group on Facebook. If you want
to hop over there and ask some questions,

587
00:37:44,519 --> 00:37:47,679
we've got a few. Rory Bentley
asks who is the best late addition

588
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:52,960
to an already established band. I'm
talking bands who already having aclaimed discography recruiting

589
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,360
someone who makes them even more awesome. I'm saying Gina Gleeson has to be

590
00:37:55,559 --> 00:38:00,360
in the conversation. I mean that's
a very shot. I mean one you

591
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:05,559
mentioned earlier sometimes about Alex bent joining
Trivia. Yeah, definitely, like they'd

592
00:38:05,599 --> 00:38:07,920
had, you know, a cycle
of drummers and then he's come in and

593
00:38:08,039 --> 00:38:12,440
I don't know whether how much on
the act of the direction, but they

594
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,920
have just been since he's joined,
you know, haven't put a single foot

595
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,679
wrong. They've just been better live
than ever. And that was when of

596
00:38:19,679 --> 00:38:22,679
that first jumped to mine. For
me, well, to me, it

597
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,960
kind of depends on what counts is
an established band, because I was thinking

598
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:29,000
Napalm Death would probably be a legendary
band if they only did those first two

599
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:34,639
albums. And then Barney Yeah,
Tilor is like the third Mayhem vocalist,

600
00:38:34,679 --> 00:38:37,960
but he is on the debut album
seemingly let's say, like you know,

601
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:42,719
let's almost take it a percentage of
career wise, Okay, uh, well,

602
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,320
the one that came to mind,
and this is already an individual person.

603
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,480
But when Swan's came back as a
six piece band for my father guard

604
00:38:47,519 --> 00:38:51,400
Mepper Rope to the Sky before that, I mean, they've done some of

605
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,440
the best music editions there. Yeah, but I think kind of now and

606
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,679
maybe it's just because you know,
people of a certain age or whatever that

607
00:38:59,079 --> 00:39:02,280
run from my father guy Broke to
the Sky up to maybe the Glowing Man.

608
00:39:02,639 --> 00:39:07,920
When it was the six piece band, it's kind of seen as maybe

609
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,880
the best Swans ever were. Like
you talk to most people who are into

610
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,239
Swans, it's not abnormal for them
to say one of those records is the

611
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:19,800
best one. And there were two
that have come since which are more either

612
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,760
well, one of them, Michael
gim are basically solo, and the others

613
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:27,239
another liner which share some people from
the six piece band, and it's very

614
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,599
good. But that run when they
came back, it's like, in a

615
00:39:30,639 --> 00:39:36,360
sense, a completely different beast,
but totally in line with the Swans.

616
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,440
Yeah, you know their thing.
I agree that that's almost like a whole,

617
00:39:39,559 --> 00:39:42,960
you know, a whole like Mark
version of the band. Yeah,

618
00:39:43,199 --> 00:39:46,000
like let's say an individual sort of
like Shining Light edition. You're saying,

619
00:39:46,079 --> 00:39:51,199
Alex Bent, I think sort of
late period drummer. You remember Scott Travis

620
00:39:51,199 --> 00:39:57,800
on Juda's Yeah, yeah, I
can remember how the like almost all their

621
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,320
platic records have been completed up to
that point, but he comes in.

622
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:06,920
There's unreal like every person death ever
added as we went through on our like

623
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,679
whole special similar though I'm bleeding through
Special Marta. You know, doesn't play

624
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,119
on an album until like Declaration or
something. I think it was. That's

625
00:40:14,519 --> 00:40:16,840
you know, upgraded their sound for
sure. I think if you're counting Gena

626
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:22,039
Gleeson, that's kind of I guess
like album five ish maybe or six.

627
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,360
Well, that around the time the
ic s of Vortex joining Demi Borgy like.

628
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,719
I think a lot a lot of
people have said that he's kind of

629
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:30,239
been hard to you know, replace
since he's been gone, So that's one

630
00:40:31,679 --> 00:40:35,880
maybe cheating a little bit. But
the the guys that Tom Juarria has with

631
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:40,320
him in tripticc On like particularly you
know Victa Centaur and Vanya on bass.

632
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:44,039
Victor did play in Celtic frost On
like the Monotheists tours. I think that

633
00:40:44,119 --> 00:40:45,400
will count. But he like produces
all their shit now and everything, and

634
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:52,599
he's brilliant. Dio Sabbath hard to
beat that really, just casually adding Ronnie

635
00:40:52,679 --> 00:40:54,880
James Dio and I think Wade and
Gallows as well. You know, he's

636
00:40:54,920 --> 00:41:00,199
pretty sensational, unexpected, but you
know, did prove perfect. Alex Afferton

637
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:05,199
says, what is the best metal
song with only one word in the chorus,

638
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,599
inevitably the name of the song itself. This immediately made me think of

639
00:41:09,199 --> 00:41:13,239
my my, my beloved Kings of
just shouting the name of the song was

640
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,599
a chorus Midnight Midnight, though a
lot of theirs are phrases two words,

641
00:41:16,599 --> 00:41:22,599
you know, this is what frothing, foulness, devil's excrements, Satanic royalty

642
00:41:22,679 --> 00:41:28,079
or whatever. But from midnight I
worked backwards to Motorhead and went, oh,

643
00:41:28,159 --> 00:41:34,880
yeah, overkill, overkill, overkill, it's like the best Motorhead song.

644
00:41:36,159 --> 00:41:38,360
I don't think you're really going to
beat that. No, because again

645
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:42,559
I was really struggling because I was
like, you know, hail destroyer,

646
00:41:42,639 --> 00:41:45,559
two words, fuck it loads is
just the title and we love those,

647
00:41:45,599 --> 00:41:47,679
you know, fucking circle of the
tire. It's a throwne emperor. I'm

648
00:41:47,679 --> 00:41:54,119
a big fan of Cudawn from Cradler
Filth, but limited to one word Messiah

649
00:41:54,159 --> 00:41:57,480
continuing on the hell Hammer kick comes
like that trying for Death live Au and

650
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,360
they came out last week. I've
been listening to it's fucking insane, but

651
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:05,840
Massiah is up there. I guess, does does rats count if it's rats?

652
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:10,840
Oh? Yeah, that's good.
So I even thought of ghost trying

653
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:16,519
to find one. I frozer off. Yeah, and even like the the

654
00:42:16,559 --> 00:42:21,880
one word ones the courses where you
think it's one word, like whiplash or

655
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,000
something, the thing that stands out
or massacred by Bathory. You find out

656
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,679
it's not acting like a maniac.
You know, this is it. And

657
00:42:28,519 --> 00:42:30,840
the one that I was so annoyed
is I thought, does rolling count?

658
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:39,639
And it doesn't because it's ll keep
rolling. I mean you mentioned Venom is

659
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:44,000
bloodluster one. I mean he doesn't
really repeat it because blood lust that's good.

660
00:42:44,079 --> 00:42:45,079
Yeah, I think in Venom have
a lot of you know, the

661
00:42:45,119 --> 00:42:49,800
two words, you know, yeah, die Hard all that ship, but

662
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,480
blood Last is a good one.
Also, wad I guess that is the

663
00:42:53,559 --> 00:42:59,800
chorus of Purity by slip not the
bit where he just goes, because that's

664
00:43:00,039 --> 00:43:04,320
that's one of the best Slippot songs. I think overkill is. I mean,

665
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,840
you nailed it on that. I
can't think of a better as.

666
00:43:07,079 --> 00:43:12,119
I think that's the most respectable answer. Paul Morton says it's great seeing footage

667
00:43:12,119 --> 00:43:14,760
from the recent Queens of stone Age
tour where crowd seems to be doing that

668
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,840
Glastonburyset pre song moshpit to a song
for the Dead in anticipating for the chaos

669
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:22,800
that's about to unfold. It's been
Queen's iconic set closer for about fifteen years

670
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,159
and it's one of my all time
favorites. One of your favorite signature set

671
00:43:24,159 --> 00:43:28,000
clothes from other artists. We've had
this question a couple of times. I

672
00:43:28,039 --> 00:43:30,639
don't normally have a song for the
Dead Spring to mind, but this week,

673
00:43:31,119 --> 00:43:34,480
fuck yet, it's in the equation
for the best of them. Also,

674
00:43:34,599 --> 00:43:38,480
you know Damnation the other week,
the end of Funeralopolis a lot.

675
00:43:38,599 --> 00:43:42,199
They do do that every single time, and I would not have them change

676
00:43:42,199 --> 00:43:45,039
it for anything. It's how it
should end. I do always. I

677
00:43:45,079 --> 00:43:46,280
always say the same two, which
I do think are my favorites, which

678
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:52,320
are Primordial Empire Falls and Behemoth Chant
for Escaton, the latter particularly in sort

679
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:58,719
of how the show rolls out.
You have the fire Jets, you have

680
00:43:59,079 --> 00:44:01,400
O Ryan coming out and spitting the
blood into the front row of the crowd.

681
00:44:01,679 --> 00:44:05,320
You have before that final riff you
have Buthemuth loves it, we shall

682
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,880
return Hell so done, and then
the fire Jets go off again. It's

683
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:13,280
just absolute magic ship. What are
your favorites? I mean, I struggle

684
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,639
with this because all of my favorite
bands don't have signatures, they switch them

685
00:44:15,679 --> 00:44:20,159
up. I can't think of my
favorite band of mine who have like a

686
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,920
signature like that is going to be
like I discounted like Metallica and Iron Maide

687
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,880
and stuffcause they do switch up.
Yeah, and that that's why I was

688
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,000
really struggling, and I'm just like, yeah, I was like, I

689
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:34,400
couldn't actually think of anything, like
I'm sure that's one of your favorite bands,

690
00:44:34,639 --> 00:44:37,199
Code Orange ending on Forever, Yeah, but they don't always do that.

691
00:44:37,199 --> 00:44:40,079
They'd of done that now the I
them do that every single time I

692
00:44:40,119 --> 00:44:43,400
seen that. Maybe I've just missed
them. Open with them with a lot

693
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:47,639
of creeper with misery like kind of
like that. That's again, but they

694
00:44:47,639 --> 00:44:52,519
don't always do it and ended on
the encore song was trying to Heaven Heaven

695
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:57,679
this four cycle, I really was
struggling to be like, because against Me

696
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:04,239
kind of flip it around between like
fresh on real like simple like no no,

697
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,480
I was like Menzingers they had it
as in remission. They've kind of

698
00:45:07,519 --> 00:45:12,800
ditched that now for something else,
Like yeah, none of my favorite bands

699
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,480
have a signature set closer that I
could like sadly think of. I I'd

700
00:45:16,559 --> 00:45:20,480
quite so first one of the kids
of Mind is forty three percent Burnt by

701
00:45:20,519 --> 00:45:24,000
Dyllinger. Cool because just you know
in the next eight minutes, because they'll

702
00:45:24,039 --> 00:45:27,679
play that riff forever at the end. You know that's going to be amazing.

703
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,559
Obviously, Like you say, big
ones, Surfacing is normally at the

704
00:45:30,679 --> 00:45:35,599
end, usually close with a few
different things. Yeah, it's like I

705
00:45:35,599 --> 00:45:37,199
would have said surfacing, but this
latest like touring cycle, they have been

706
00:45:37,199 --> 00:45:42,960
mixing up and do it with Spin
It Out people, Legal Ship Living after

707
00:45:43,039 --> 00:45:46,559
Midnight. Yeah, I'm bout saying
Night is again. It's like it's not

708
00:45:46,599 --> 00:45:51,480
even one of my favorite pre songs
on record, but in that moment it's

709
00:45:51,519 --> 00:45:55,159
like so euphoric and one that like
I think it will always be this even

710
00:45:55,159 --> 00:45:58,480
if it's no longer their biggest song. And it was originally written for the

711
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:04,400
opener, but ghost ending with square
Hammer very good, like Cross is substantially

712
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,480
bigger in terms of streams now,
but I don't think it'll ever Yeah,

713
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:12,920
Square Hammer is again. They moved
it into that sort around prequel because when

714
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,400
it first came it was opener,
But since it's been there, I was

715
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:19,039
thinking a little while ago, I've
not got entire Square Hammer yet it's like

716
00:46:19,159 --> 00:46:23,320
it's it's over seven years now for
that song. It's been around and I

717
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:27,360
still have to listen to the entire
thing if I hear those opening notes,

718
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,960
and I will still play it on
repeat for a little while every now and

719
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,280
then if I get the it,
it's like closer to a decade than you

720
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:37,039
know. Not now with that song, I'm still completely head of a heels

721
00:46:37,039 --> 00:46:39,920
and amal with it. And last
one I will throw out on the bigger

722
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,880
bands I had, Living Off been
that absolutely in terms of particularly if they're

723
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,159
like ending a festival, it's like
the song you want to hear of the

724
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:51,320
entire experience is living off, Like
Rocking Till the Dawn Meuse Nights of Sedonia

725
00:46:52,079 --> 00:46:55,679
is staggering, brilliant. Ye the
only one that is U me at six

726
00:46:55,719 --> 00:47:01,840
of Underdog and I was like interet
clothes, my plan should be better with

727
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:06,800
it. Maybe my favorite now that
I'm thinking about it is when Faith and

728
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:08,599
More close on Week Care a Lot, and again it's the living after Mini.

729
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,239
It's not one of my favorite Faith
No More songs, but their set

730
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,960
lists are so like amorphous, so
you don't know what they're gonna play and

731
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:20,039
when like you might get midlife crisis
first, or epic two thirds of the

732
00:47:20,079 --> 00:47:22,400
way and or whatever, and then
whatever song they're playing at the end,

733
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:27,880
it will be ringing out and then
just hear bum bum and you're just like

734
00:47:28,559 --> 00:47:30,920
it's one of them, whereas like
you know it's gonna be the last one,

735
00:47:30,199 --> 00:47:34,760
and it's just it's a laugh.
Yeah. I was gonna say underdog.

736
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,960
It is probably our cue to move
on from this question the next one.

737
00:47:37,079 --> 00:47:40,000
Sorry. Pete Shipp asked, how
do you feel like other music journalis

738
00:47:40,039 --> 00:47:44,599
asking questions in a slot? I
guess it doesn't seem to happen very often,

739
00:47:44,599 --> 00:47:46,440
at least in terms of people who
are like who I know and recognize.

740
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:51,679
Sorry to anybody who's asking who.
I'm therefore out with myself as I

741
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:54,039
don't know who you are, but
like people I recognize, it just tends

742
00:47:54,039 --> 00:47:58,239
to be my mates, like you
know, mister Chillingworth, you know,

743
00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,920
like Rich Hobson from Mettalhammill, Turn
of Time now, and they're like,

744
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:04,119
those are just my friends. So
I don't really mind, you know.

745
00:48:04,159 --> 00:48:07,079
I guess it's like, you know, we we talk in a sort of

746
00:48:07,159 --> 00:48:09,920
like quite conversational, you know,
in the pub chatting about music with mates

747
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:15,239
thing and just happen to work in
the business. Shouldn't outlaw you from engaging

748
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:20,320
in those conversations. So, you
know, if you've got some fun shit

749
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:22,639
to ask, just to nerd out
about stuff, which is what we like

750
00:48:22,679 --> 00:48:27,199
to do, absolutely no problem.
And Eric Shun asks what festival are you

751
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,280
looking forward to most next year?
I've already said recently that for me it's

752
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:35,559
Fortress Festival. Sam. I feel
like the bee elephant in the room that

753
00:48:35,599 --> 00:48:37,920
you can't answer this question for yet
is that we are currently still waiting on

754
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,880
you know, we've got lots of
festivalentuster this next year, we've not yet

755
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:45,039
got outbreaks. Yeah, that's the
kind of one. If I had talk

756
00:48:45,079 --> 00:48:49,000
about what is currently announced, what's
most attracted me right now is two thousand

757
00:48:49,039 --> 00:48:52,679
Trees. They've got the Gaslight Anthem, they've got better Lovers, Bunk Creeper,

758
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,239
you know Creeper. They've just announced
there and they're like if Creeper headlining,

759
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:59,280
I think one like the tents with
the show they've got like hell yeah,

760
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:00,719
it's me a good time. But
outbreak is when I'm kind of like,

761
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:04,159
come on, outbreak, come through
for me. Yes, Elliot,

762
00:49:04,159 --> 00:49:07,760
what about what's current, you're fancy
the most of what's been announced, well,

763
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:12,320
you know, DOWNDASI and Outbreak I'm
always going to be intrigued about.

764
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,719
But of the ones that are announced, am I if I can swing,

765
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,239
I'd love to do Fortress Fest like
again, just a new one I've been

766
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,400
trying to put and trip to con
doing two hunters. Oh my word,

767
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:31,159
just and the venue looks pretty fancy, which I might book my ticket now

768
00:49:34,079 --> 00:49:37,559
now. Yeah, of all the
ones announced, because I've kind of been

769
00:49:37,559 --> 00:49:39,719
open that Download and Bloodstock are slightly
mixed for me next year, And those

770
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:44,599
are the ones I always look too
first because you know, it's it's a

771
00:49:44,599 --> 00:49:47,280
big old event. But next year, if I'm not going to those,

772
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:52,840
I'll have more kind of freedom and
you know, disposable income to try something

773
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:57,440
else. And that's the one that's
attracting me at the moment. Cool,

774
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:01,360
it's not just me, right,
Patreon subscribers this week, that is of

775
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:04,880
course, patron of com slash.

778
00:50:08,519 --> 00:50:12,360

00:50:17,679 --> 00:50:20,679
thank you so much to everyone who

782
00:50:21,119 --> 00:50:25,559
taking the time to do that.
We are after we record this news episode,

783
00:50:25,639 --> 00:50:30,320
right after we are going to be
finally doing knocking Out, something that

784
00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:31,559
I'd be wanted to do for a
little while, which is our latest t

785
00:50:31,639 --> 00:50:36,840
and M does horror. This is
gonna be our I guess sort of post

786
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:42,000
Halloween recap in terms of what were
the big you know, horror franchise things

787
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:46,519
that came out this Halloween season.
We are specifically honing in on Saw ten

788
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:52,599
and The Exorcist Believer. Saw ten
is like it's sow in general. It's

789
00:50:52,679 --> 00:50:54,360
kind of you know, it's kind
of part of the furniture here. You

790
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,880
know, we talk about Saul set
By frequently. It's all you know,

791
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,519
for Greebes like us, it's like
it's a greed for So that'll be fun.

792
00:51:00,559 --> 00:51:07,639
I'm sure The Exorcist Believer, Elliotts, you watched this movie like what

793
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,719
like an hour before we like sat
down to do this or something like,

794
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,960
I was it was it worth it? Is it all fresh in your mind?

795
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:22,960
I have so little spare time,
So if that sounds like it'll be

796
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,760
fun, you can go check that
out of a picture of corm Slash that's

797
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,559
not metal. And then we will, of course have you know, all

798
00:51:28,599 --> 00:51:31,119
of the musical specials and antics and
so on coming in the you know,

799
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:37,679
the future right after that. So
last thing for this Hyperblasts releases. This

800
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,840
is like I guess it's, you
know, the really big exciting rock releases.

801
00:51:42,159 --> 00:51:45,119
Not quite top of the pile this
time, a bit more of a

802
00:51:45,199 --> 00:51:51,360
you know, we're winding down.
We do have Dolly Parton releasing her rock

803
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:57,199
album called It's called rock Star.
Rob Halford's probably on this. I know

804
00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:00,679
that there was some fucking Ferraora and
people upset that kid Rock is on this,

805
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:04,239
so god knows the cast of characters
we all have on there. But

806
00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:07,159
if you want to hear Dolly Parton
goes rock there it is similarly sort of

807
00:52:07,199 --> 00:52:09,800
you know, hard rocking, pretty
chill fair this ban called high Spirits releasing

808
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:14,440
an album called Safe on the other
side in your punk and hardcore space.

809
00:52:14,599 --> 00:52:17,559
First up, we've got Race Traitor
with Creation and the Timeless Order of Things.

810
00:52:17,559 --> 00:52:22,440
This is one of many bands featuring
one mister Andy Hurley. This is

811
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,760
I think the slightly weirder, more
experimental bands of the two compared to his

812
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,480
you know, pretty straight ahead thing. He doesn't sect but if you want

813
00:52:29,519 --> 00:52:32,679
to hear him doing some interesting music
for once, that would be out.

814
00:52:34,119 --> 00:52:38,760
Also the band Colosseum. They are
resort of branded here as c L s

815
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,519
M, but they are Colosseum.
I don't really know anything about this band,

816
00:52:42,519 --> 00:52:46,000
but I saw, you know,
some of my my elder hardcore friends,

817
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:50,760
shall we say, being very excited
that they've suddenly reunited and dropped.

818
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:54,599
I saw them like years ago supporting
Rise Against. That was pretty cool,

819
00:52:54,639 --> 00:52:57,840
and then they kind of vanished after
that point, and I was like,

820
00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,480
oh cool, they're back. Yeah, they surprise releasing now this week,

821
00:53:00,559 --> 00:53:05,280
so rejoice everyone who is you know, relevant interests death metal fair. There

822
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:09,400
is a new band from Denmark called
Pleague mace Over released a record called Reptilian

823
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:15,079
Warlords. This record is really fucking
daft. It's a really like if you

824
00:53:15,199 --> 00:53:19,599
like death metal, that's kind of
groovy and not afraid to be a little

825
00:53:19,599 --> 00:53:22,639
bit stupid. There's some I probably
like death Clock fans and things like that,

826
00:53:22,639 --> 00:53:25,639
like it's pretty daft stuff going on
there. And then right on Q

827
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:30,679
Fetal Juice are also back with their
record Grotesque. Moving back to some more

828
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:35,800
classic bands, Sadus are back The
Shadow Inside that is the sort of you

829
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,960
know, very long running now sort
of death thrash band I guess from the

830
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:43,519
late eighties featured the likes of Steve
de Giorgio and some once upon a Time

831
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:45,599
more you know, sort of in
that death metal fair. We've got a

832
00:53:45,639 --> 00:53:50,679
Turnus releasing their record Philosopher, Australian
black metal band that was pointed in my

833
00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:52,760
direction. There's a man called King
who are putting out a recorded Fury and

834
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:58,679
Death black speed metal band. Bewitcher
have got a kind of compilation of like

835
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,800
B sides and kind of ariies and
stuff like that called Deep Cuts and Shallow

836
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:04,599
Graves. And then it was move
over to more sort of you know post

837
00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:08,079
metal Ease, Ludgie Affair or whatever
proggy stuff. We've got Earthside releasing let

838
00:54:08,159 --> 00:54:12,639
the True Speak. We've got Sores
releasing Repeater, which is I believe one

839
00:54:12,679 --> 00:54:15,960
of the members from Cotton Luna doing
like a kind of solo post rocky thing.

840
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:19,159
And I guess the release that I
would actually be most excited to go

841
00:54:19,199 --> 00:54:23,320
and press play on is the ep
from Celeste, which is called Epilogues,

842
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:28,039
which, as the name suggests,
it's kind of a sort of a conclusion

843
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,280
some more music from around the same
time as their latest album, which I

844
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:34,880
had in my end of year list
last year. It's fucking great. So

845
00:54:35,159 --> 00:54:38,480
there you go. That is what
is out to day next week. Here

846
00:54:38,519 --> 00:54:44,559
on that's our metal. It's the
reviews bag. If you like really creative

847
00:54:44,559 --> 00:54:46,760
and out there extreme metal, you
should tune in. If you like really

848
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:50,880
fun, upbeat punk, you should
tune in. If you like hardcore,

849
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,559
you should tune in. If you
like theatrical, ludicrous rock music, you

850
00:54:53,599 --> 00:54:58,079
should tune in for what is the
last review show of the year, which

851
00:54:58,119 --> 00:55:00,719
can be a little bit, you
know, sort of bear. Sometimes it's

852
00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:02,960
a really strong batch. So I'm
looking forward to it. I hope you

853
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,079
are too, and we'll see you
next Friday. Bye.
