1
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,839
Speaker 1: Hello, everybody. Welcome to that's not metal. Welcome here to Hyperblast.

2
00:00:29,879 --> 00:00:33,200
We are here with our weekly metal rock news, not

3
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,799
quite reviews, but news and releases show here today and

4
00:00:35,799 --> 00:00:37,200
going to let you know everything's been going on. My

5
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,280
name is Parnhish, and I am here on my lonesome

6
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,159
today because I'm recording this a little bit earlier than

7
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,640
usual in the day because I am headed very shortly

8
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:50,240
off to All Things Incineration Festival. So I'm just here

9
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,840
on my own twickly to again get the news and

10
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,520
the releases out for you. What has been going on? Well,

11
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,359
the main event for me this week, I suppose was

12
00:00:58,399 --> 00:01:02,399
I went to the Sanguine, which was Creepers in you know,

13
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,799
smaller venues than they have recently been playing very you know,

14
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,480
deliberately intimate type shows, doing a tour. I think many

15
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:10,799
of us in the you know, the kind of Creeper

16
00:01:10,799 --> 00:01:13,239
fan base have been wanting to see for a couple

17
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,840
of years now, since they've been in this world that

18
00:01:15,879 --> 00:01:19,239
they've been in, which is they did a tour entirely

19
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,280
one hundred percent you were warned in advance this is

20
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,599
what the settlers would be entirely comprised of their Sanguavore

21
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,480
one and two records are now you know, both out,

22
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,519
sang of War two obviously about six months old now,

23
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,400
so the right time I think to really go all

24
00:01:33,439 --> 00:01:35,640
in on that world, which if you are a fan

25
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,760
of particularly those records of Creepers, you know what a

26
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,400
specific vibe, and it is music and records that are

27
00:01:43,719 --> 00:01:46,719
so made for their own, you know, kind of rock

28
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,239
opera type presentation at the very least a as we say,

29
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,760
a specific sort of world of somewhere they can live.

30
00:01:53,879 --> 00:01:55,640
And I'm a really big fan of when bands do that,

31
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,840
like provided you know, the recent current records are good,

32
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,000
of course and you actually one see that material. But

33
00:02:01,359 --> 00:02:03,359
I'm a fan of you know, sort of album in

34
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:08,199
full or you know, deliberately themed type presentations, not necessarily

35
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,560
for nostalgia albums, but for this is where we are

36
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,719
right now. This is the show where if you are

37
00:02:12,759 --> 00:02:16,360
like really plugged into our band at this exact moment

38
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,199
in our career, then we're going to really like give

39
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,159
it everything that we've got. I mean, like one of

40
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,400
my favorite album in full type shows I've ever seen

41
00:02:23,879 --> 00:02:26,599
was when Behemoth played The Satanist. When The Satanist was

42
00:02:26,599 --> 00:02:28,599
their most recent album out because it just felt like, yeah,

43
00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:31,400
like this is now, this is contemporary, it's relevant, it's important,

44
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,280
and let's like really, you know, give it the treatment

45
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,319
it deserves. And so, as we say, you know, with

46
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,879
Creeper's whole vibe for sangle War being so seemingly made

47
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:40,879
for it, I was really looking forward to this. I've

48
00:02:40,879 --> 00:02:42,599
seen Creeper, I mean, of course, you know, countless times,

49
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,439
but just on the Sango Wore cycles. In the last

50
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,360
year or so, I've seen them a couple of times,

51
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,800
but mainly recently in you know, festival type slots like

52
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,680
a bloodstock or support slots like at the the Eisnine

53
00:02:53,759 --> 00:02:56,199
Kills Arena to all. So I was really looking forward

54
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,520
to seeing not only them headlining again, but like specifically

55
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,280
going all in on this, with it being more intimate

56
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,360
than usual shows for them. I think, you know, you

57
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,719
could have imagined maybe them doing this, and I think

58
00:03:06,719 --> 00:03:08,120
what a lot of us would have, you know, in

59
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,560
vision from the beginning of the sangle War cycle, was

60
00:03:10,599 --> 00:03:13,680
them doing you know, trying to up the production basically

61
00:03:13,719 --> 00:03:17,960
and really put on the big theatrical, you know, fucking rocky,

62
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,439
horror meat loaf type show that you imagine from the records,

63
00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:22,599
they obviously went the opposite direction and just went this

64
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,560
is specifically for you know, are hardcore fans basically, which

65
00:03:25,599 --> 00:03:27,599
I think does have its merits as well. So you know,

66
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,479
production wise, it's obviously not the biggest creeper show you've

67
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,599
ever seen. They did do some cool things like clever

68
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,560
usage of lighting and stuff like that, you know, like

69
00:03:35,599 --> 00:03:38,199
kind of lighting their faces from underneath, which I would

70
00:03:38,199 --> 00:03:39,759
think it is a good trick on stage, particularly for

71
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,560
them at this point, because it made them look particularly vampish,

72
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:43,919
you know what I mean. But it was you know,

73
00:03:44,039 --> 00:03:48,039
small show basically just entirely about presenting the songs and

74
00:03:48,879 --> 00:03:51,560
for you know, these two records, which you I presume

75
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:53,360
have probably heard our reviews of these two records over

76
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,280
the last couple years as they've come out. Sangravore was

77
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,919
you know, so beloved by you know, the T and

78
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,039
M audience. I believe it's the audience ed album of

79
00:04:01,039 --> 00:04:03,080
the year that year, so I trust that many of

80
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,680
you were really looking forward and going to this as well.

81
00:04:05,759 --> 00:04:10,360
Sang of War two also did extremely well again amongst

82
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,199
you guys, and I think whichever your favorite Creeper record is,

83
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,639
whether it's a new one where it was an old one.

84
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,800
I think a lot of us have a general appreciation

85
00:04:16,879 --> 00:04:19,920
for everything, I suppose, so yeah, was really really looking

86
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,680
forward to this. The support act was a band called

87
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,839
The Howling, who feel like, you know, there's a kind

88
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,079
of an interesting sort of sub ecosystem in the UK

89
00:04:27,199 --> 00:04:30,680
rock scene of bands who feel like they really are

90
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,959
made to support Creeper, you know what I mean. Like

91
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,879
they had album was it The Nightmares a few years ago,

92
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,000
and then this band, The Howling, who musically and visually

93
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,839
really felt like essentially they had been born of like

94
00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:46,240
older Creeper, basically, like the singer in particular was like,

95
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,439
oh yeah, like you are the child of you know,

96
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,720
Will Gouled circa twenty seventeen or something like that. But

97
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:53,959
they were all right. They did a cover of Like

98
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,160
a Prayer, which was not as good as the Dogma

99
00:04:56,199 --> 00:04:58,040
one that I saw at Bloodstock Firm the other year.

100
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,800
But considering Dogma have you know imploded, Sean need someone

101
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,959
out there covering like a Prayer in spooky fashion at

102
00:05:02,959 --> 00:05:06,959
all times. Basically, uh yeah, Creepers set it was I

103
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,079
believe all but one song off of each Sango Wore

104
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:16,000
record was played. They did not play Tino Sacrifice shockingly

105
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,000
from Sang of War one, which considered that was again

106
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,519
a big single from that I was surprised, but maybe

107
00:05:19,519 --> 00:05:21,720
they've just played that one, you know, so regularly in

108
00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:24,920
these shorter type slots that it didn't feel as necessary.

109
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,720
And then from the Sanga World two record, they did

110
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,040
not play pav Or Nocturnis, which was maybe a bit

111
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,240
of a shame because that's I think one of the

112
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,879
better songs on that record, really grand closer. But you know,

113
00:05:33,879 --> 00:05:36,160
considering they've got like Further and Forever and stuff to

114
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,879
fit in as well, maybe there's only so many grand

115
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,519
songs that you could fit into the set, So that

116
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,040
was the one that was missing. But you know, otherwise,

117
00:05:41,079 --> 00:05:43,920
every single song from both Sangle War records and even

118
00:05:43,959 --> 00:05:45,879
Time for a you know, a kind of a bonus

119
00:05:45,879 --> 00:05:47,680
track and off cut from this era as well, So

120
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,279
if you're into these records, you were well served. It

121
00:05:50,319 --> 00:05:52,680
was very much a feast Will came out in the

122
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,560
first song wearing an eye patch, and I didn't really

123
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:55,879
know what that was for. I wasn't quite sure, and

124
00:05:55,879 --> 00:05:57,040
maybe he had her some kind of you know, a

125
00:05:57,079 --> 00:05:59,759
mishap on tour and needed it. But then by the

126
00:05:59,879 --> 00:06:01,480
end the first song he'd removed that, so I'm sure

127
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,399
it's just an in character moment that he's wearing an

128
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,480
eye patch at the beginning for some reason. But yeah,

129
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,879
opened with the I guess the opening little run of

130
00:06:08,879 --> 00:06:10,319
the songle War two records that just came out, So

131
00:06:10,399 --> 00:06:13,040
Mistress of Death into Blood Magic, it's a ritual and

132
00:06:13,079 --> 00:06:16,079
those are songs that I like, I enjoy, I think again,

133
00:06:16,319 --> 00:06:19,399
not my absolute favorite Creeper tracks ever, but it's kind of,

134
00:06:19,519 --> 00:06:21,680
you know, a decent sort of start to things. And

135
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,079
then they hit Lover's led Astray, which I was like, okay, yeah,

136
00:06:25,079 --> 00:06:27,680
that's a ten. Now things are really really hitting up,

137
00:06:27,759 --> 00:06:30,720
and from there just every song really from you know,

138
00:06:30,759 --> 00:06:33,720
both one and two really like kind of just made

139
00:06:34,319 --> 00:06:36,720
you know, made sense and really like made a case

140
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,959
for them being a great little part of the Creeper

141
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,800
set lists. I mean, like, on the one front, these

142
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,519
are the songs that I'm sure many of us, you know,

143
00:06:44,519 --> 00:06:46,680
because they've been out longer, have seen quite a few

144
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,160
times and more often by this stage. But again kind

145
00:06:49,199 --> 00:06:51,279
of as a you know, a celebration of this era,

146
00:06:51,319 --> 00:06:54,560
a hamming hammering home, you know how good these tracks are.

147
00:06:55,439 --> 00:06:58,160
Essentially the Ballad of Spook and Mercy I think has

148
00:06:58,199 --> 00:07:02,079
gone down as one of my favorite Creeper live moments ever,

149
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,480
Like in all of their catalog, that's the one where

150
00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:06,360
when it comes around in the set that's considering. It's

151
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,319
a sort of you know, a slower Moodiers song as well.

152
00:07:09,319 --> 00:07:11,279
It's one of the ones that I will sing for

153
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,079
the loudest and people very much kind of you know,

154
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,120
get in line with that. Black Heaven is the best

155
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,439
Sanga Wore era song from either record for me. I

156
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,199
just absolutely adore it. And again getting this in again

157
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,240
a sort of intimate club environment, this kind of goth

158
00:07:24,319 --> 00:07:27,000
club ready song with that incredible sort of you know,

159
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,240
almost like a prayer issue if you like, religious grandiosity

160
00:07:30,279 --> 00:07:32,639
to particularly the kind of quiral part at the end

161
00:07:32,639 --> 00:07:35,720
of it was very very good obviously, you know, I

162
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,720
think the encore was two you know, sang of War

163
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:40,959
one era songs, Further Than Forever and to Cry to Heaven,

164
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,879
and both of those in such different ways just absolutely

165
00:07:43,879 --> 00:07:46,959
fucking smash it. The more energetic punk stuff, which is

166
00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:48,920
some of the stuff that I, you know, was maybe

167
00:07:49,079 --> 00:07:50,959
wanting for a little bit on the Sang of War

168
00:07:50,959 --> 00:07:52,560
two record, but the bits of that that come on

169
00:07:52,639 --> 00:07:56,879
the first record, like you know, Sacred Blasphemy and Chapel Gates.

170
00:07:56,959 --> 00:07:59,000
Chapel Gates, they brought up a guy from the stage

171
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,879
who I guess had had a sign or something that

172
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,959
he came up and played bass for Chapel Gates, which,

173
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,639
for an audience perspective, the best thing about that was

174
00:08:06,959 --> 00:08:09,079
the fact that it freed up Sean and Sean, who

175
00:08:09,079 --> 00:08:11,319
has always been the kind of slightly Larry Punk on

176
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,839
stage in that band, just for that one song basically

177
00:08:13,879 --> 00:08:15,920
standing on the side of the stage kind of leering

178
00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:18,800
over the front row of the audience chugin beers, which, hell, yeah, Sean,

179
00:08:18,839 --> 00:08:21,040
I'm glad that you got that moment for you. But

180
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:22,920
I guess you know, this show is particularly of interest

181
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,360
to me because we've seen most of the Sango Wore

182
00:08:25,399 --> 00:08:28,720
One songs, the exception they're actually being closing the main

183
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,519
set with More than Death, the piano closer from Sango

184
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,519
Wore One, and I would say now that that is

185
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,320
my favorite Creeper album closer. I think it is spectacular

186
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,039
when it comes to those, like you know, piano bass songs.

187
00:08:41,039 --> 00:08:43,039
I think it's the best one that they've done, and

188
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,039
that's the one I don't believe they had played certainly,

189
00:08:46,039 --> 00:08:47,559
if they had, it was only in very rare occasions,

190
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:48,960
but I don't think they had played it prior to

191
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,279
like this run. Basically, So there are a couple songs

192
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:52,960
that you know, they were airing for the first time

193
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:54,480
on this run that felt like the moments for it,

194
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:55,840
more than Death was very much one that I was

195
00:08:55,879 --> 00:08:58,519
looking forward to, and the considering that's a song where

196
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,759
again in the life en varying particularly it's basically Will

197
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,360
standing at the front on his own, you know, bringing

198
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,000
the audience along with it in terms of the you

199
00:09:07,039 --> 00:09:10,039
know that staging and then certainly the audience reaction to it.

200
00:09:10,039 --> 00:09:13,759
It reminded me of the really incredible, you know, quite

201
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,480
intimate sing along as you would get for Misery back

202
00:09:16,519 --> 00:09:18,679
in the earlier days of Creeper. And obviously, you know,

203
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,679
Misery is a very special song and I hope to

204
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,639
see it back in the set you know, before long,

205
00:09:22,879 --> 00:09:25,240
but as you know, again, a different take on a

206
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:30,240
kind of similar motif, maybe more than death, with just

207
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,279
that all of the maximum drama that you see in

208
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,600
you know, Peak, will goods when he's leaning into that

209
00:09:35,639 --> 00:09:38,240
direction and bringing the crowd along with it. It was

210
00:09:38,879 --> 00:09:40,960
one of those really fantastic moments that I think, you know,

211
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,440
many of us has had at Creeper shows down the year,

212
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,919
So that was brilliant. But the songle were two songs

213
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,720
outside of the you know, couple of bigger singles that

214
00:09:49,759 --> 00:09:51,159
they were doing at places like you know again that

215
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,440
Eistan Kills tour. These are all the ones that were

216
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,519
basically fresh, and so I was very you know, curious

217
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,639
to see how they would go down. And like I said,

218
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,279
I mean in terms of album tracks and stuff, gotta

219
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:05,240
say they were crackers, like really really really good daydreaming

220
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,039
in the dark with that full on, you know, fucking

221
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:12,080
top gun volleyball, you know whoa really comes into its

222
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,360
own in the live environment more than it did on record,

223
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:16,919
I think, and I liked it on record. You go

224
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,840
through again to the kind of the more you know,

225
00:10:18,919 --> 00:10:22,120
kind of like you know, Gothic, darker leaning songs like

226
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,559
the Crimson Bride and Pray for the Night and stuff,

227
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,840
and again these are kind of the almost the I

228
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,000
don't want to use the term the dregs because that's very,

229
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:30,519
very harsh but like, you know, they're the sort of

230
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,080
like the last guffs I suppose of like this is

231
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,519
what we're doing with the Sango Wore stuff. Here are

232
00:10:34,519 --> 00:10:37,039
just some more really fun album tracks for you. But

233
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,559
again they come into the set and you are really

234
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,840
really having a good time with them. In terms of

235
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,080
the again, these Sanga Wore two songs that almost felt

236
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,840
like they were the event of this particular tour in

237
00:10:47,879 --> 00:10:49,799
the way that more than Death perhaps was from the

238
00:10:49,879 --> 00:10:53,279
first record I think everybody before this tour had even

239
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,679
you know started, really everyone kind of unanimously agreed, okay,

240
00:10:57,759 --> 00:11:01,120
it's the Razor Wire at all, because Razor y becoming

241
00:11:01,159 --> 00:11:04,200
such an immediate fan favorite from sang of War two,

242
00:11:04,639 --> 00:11:07,799
as the you know, the Hannah led song from both

243
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,600
sangle War records. Really the first one didn't have one,

244
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,600
and the Hannah led songs have often been you know,

245
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,480
fan favorites. You know, think of course Crickets from from

246
00:11:14,519 --> 00:11:17,080
way back in the day, but raise a Wire being

247
00:11:17,159 --> 00:11:20,639
a contender for the best one they've done in that there,

248
00:11:20,879 --> 00:11:22,639
and I think people knew that, Okay, this is the

249
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,799
tour where that's getting aired, doubt, and that's going to

250
00:11:24,879 --> 00:11:27,960
be just a really celebratory moment for everyone, and like,

251
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,519
you know, they made a meal of it. They gave

252
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,440
obviously the current day creeper presentation of like you know,

253
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,919
the the vampire makeup and the slicked black hair and

254
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,519
the leather jackets and that kind of stuff. Hannah wearing

255
00:11:38,519 --> 00:11:41,279
these like you know, enormous fucking leather boots and fishnets

256
00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:43,679
and stuff like that. But she had like a special

257
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,399
custom leather jacket just for herself with a particular like

258
00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:50,639
razor wire themed painted artwork on the back, you know,

259
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,679
with the Mistress on it and stuff like that. Whenever

260
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,200
she was like not actually singing a line in that song,

261
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,519
she would turn her back to the crowd and just

262
00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,879
kind of like you know, flex it about a little

263
00:11:59,879 --> 00:12:01,279
bit so people could really take in, like, you know,

264
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,679
this is the rais of why I'm moment. And yeah,

265
00:12:03,759 --> 00:12:07,840
again that like Jessica Rabbit but evil you know, jazz

266
00:12:07,879 --> 00:12:10,639
club kind of noir sing along vibe to that, the

267
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,039
whole Misfits you know, skulls reference in the bridge and

268
00:12:13,039 --> 00:12:15,000
stuff like that going there an absolute treat with the

269
00:12:15,039 --> 00:12:19,360
sing alongs. That was again another really really strong fun

270
00:12:19,399 --> 00:12:22,000
moment from it, and another bit that again I was

271
00:12:22,039 --> 00:12:25,679
happy to see because I don't think they're gonna keep

272
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,360
this in the set, particularly after this point, because again,

273
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,440
of all the songs, here was the one that the

274
00:12:30,519 --> 00:12:33,360
least people I think you know, knew and recognized, but

275
00:12:34,159 --> 00:12:37,200
the one of the again bonus tracks from the Sanguavore

276
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,039
kind of deluxe edition that they did, which again I

277
00:12:40,039 --> 00:12:42,120
think a lot of people maybe you forgotten that even happened,

278
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,440
But like when they put out the deluxe edition of

279
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,159
the First Angle Wore like a year later and it

280
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,519
was like three bonus songs on it. Love and Pain

281
00:12:48,639 --> 00:12:51,320
particularly from that record is one I think is a

282
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,360
really like again pretty much just as good as a

283
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,840
lot of the songs that are on the main Sangovore records.

284
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,360
And seeing that air for what I'm gonna probably presume

285
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:00,919
is one of the only times in their history they'll

286
00:13:00,919 --> 00:13:03,360
be playing a song from you know, that particular sort

287
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,039
of again deluxe addition or whatever. And I love that

288
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,360
song because it's it's, you know, one of the least

289
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,480
rocking moments of their set in that moment, but it

290
00:13:12,919 --> 00:13:15,399
leans really fully into facer to being like kind of

291
00:13:15,399 --> 00:13:18,799
a you know, a drab, really gloomy but quite pretty

292
00:13:18,799 --> 00:13:22,960
as well. Gossong basically and I love that track, and

293
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,840
again I was happy to see it in the set

294
00:13:24,879 --> 00:13:27,200
for what is probably going to be its one world

295
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,159
around really good and yeah, I noticed as well as

296
00:13:30,519 --> 00:13:33,360
last month, I think it was marked the ten year

297
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,840
anniversary of the first time that I saw Creeper, which

298
00:13:36,919 --> 00:13:39,600
was when they played The Underworld for the first time.

299
00:13:39,639 --> 00:13:43,360
I think, right as The Stranger Epe was coming out,

300
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,799
and just again sort of around the ten year mark

301
00:13:45,799 --> 00:13:48,240
of that, when I've seen them basically more than any

302
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,519
other band in those ten years, getting a show like

303
00:13:51,519 --> 00:13:55,080
this where the you know, the presentation, the vibe, the

304
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,320
you know, the kind of the whole look and the

305
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,519
way they play and everything of the band is massively

306
00:14:00,519 --> 00:14:02,879
different and unique to what they were doing at that

307
00:14:02,919 --> 00:14:06,159
moment ten years ago. But they're still, you know, they

308
00:14:06,159 --> 00:14:08,120
still have that kind of that really loyal fan base.

309
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,480
And I was looking around again in this kind of

310
00:14:09,519 --> 00:14:12,399
Yaen Smaller than You, very specifically themed in this thing

311
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,840
that's again kind of out of the zeitgeist. It's not

312
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,000
really you know, in tune with anything else is going

313
00:14:18,039 --> 00:14:22,200
on specifically celebrating this, you know, Sanguavore, Vampire Rock opera

314
00:14:22,279 --> 00:14:24,159
kind of era they're in and looking around and being like, yeah,

315
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:25,919
you know, this is cool. This is still you know,

316
00:14:25,919 --> 00:14:28,279
they've changed and they've gone through different iterations and stuff,

317
00:14:28,279 --> 00:14:30,559
but this is still essentially the you know, the our

318
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:34,240
little creeper cult kind of vampire golf band that people

319
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,840
are you know, really still passionate about. So thoroughly enjoyable

320
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,720
little time at the sanguaiteour seeing the you know, the

321
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,080
the real proper you know in in the works kind

322
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:49,480
of celebration of the Sangwavore records. I'm sure obviously Sanga

323
00:14:49,519 --> 00:14:50,960
War two is only like six months old or something

324
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,120
like that. Like I said, so, I'm sure that we'll

325
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,200
have plenty more shows and touring and stuff in this

326
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,320
iteration of Creeper before whatever it is they decide to

327
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,679
you know, do after that. But getting the you know,

328
00:15:01,759 --> 00:15:03,679
at this moment for it if at the right moment

329
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,120
to really again you know, give it what it's worth.

330
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,559
So good, Yeah news. This time we are going to

331
00:15:08,639 --> 00:15:11,679
congregate mainly around I sometimes talk about how there are

332
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,240
particular dates in the music industry calendar where for some reason,

333
00:15:15,279 --> 00:15:18,919
everyone you know kind of again congregates and primarily releases

334
00:15:18,919 --> 00:15:21,600
their albums like around a certain date. For whatever reason,

335
00:15:21,879 --> 00:15:24,240
today's date, We've got a bunch of album announcements all

336
00:15:24,279 --> 00:15:27,759
for July the seventeenth, So enjoyers of July the seventeenth,

337
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,799
listen up, because these are the new albums that have

338
00:15:29,879 --> 00:15:31,559
been coming up that day. And there's a few of

339
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,679
the the bigger releases that are gonna be out this year,

340
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,519
I think for us coming on the horizon specifically. Then

341
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,960
first up, the most long or waited one, Loathe, have

342
00:15:41,159 --> 00:15:45,039
finally actually announced their new album, the follow up to

343
00:15:45,559 --> 00:15:47,519
the I Let It In and It Took Everything album

344
00:15:47,559 --> 00:15:50,000
that really took the world by storm back in twenty

345
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,360
twenty six years ago. For so long we have been like,

346
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,039
oh my fucking god, when a Loath we're going to

347
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,559
release a follow up album. They play every single festival

348
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,879
every single year, and they have the exact same songs

349
00:16:00,039 --> 00:16:03,080
that they put out six years ago. But that record

350
00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:05,799
has been again kind of almost outside of myself because

351
00:16:05,799 --> 00:16:07,639
I you know, I enjoy Loath for what they are,

352
00:16:07,679 --> 00:16:10,799
but it's been a weird observance, I guess, oh, you know,

353
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:15,159
watching how genuinely seminal this bound seemed to be for

354
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,039
like a particular generation of a particular Zene scene and

355
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,600
kind of you know, a type of current heavy music fan.

356
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,399
I suppose so like this particularly in that crowd. This

357
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,600
record has been so long away. It's been almost a

358
00:16:26,679 --> 00:16:29,120
year since they put out that stand Home single last year,

359
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:30,960
which people were at that point were like, oh my god,

360
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,519
finally we must be getting more on new music, and

361
00:16:32,559 --> 00:16:35,000
then almost a whole year past, and that was a

362
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,480
strange single as well, wasn't it quite all over the

363
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,480
place in terms of a you know, a piece of songwriting.

364
00:16:39,559 --> 00:16:43,120
But finally the album is called A Stranger to You

365
00:16:43,279 --> 00:16:45,879
out as I said, July seventeenth, Sharp Tone Records, and

366
00:16:45,919 --> 00:16:47,679
there is a single out from it called Revenant. This

367
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,080
particular single also features Nowhere to Run, that of course

368
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:55,600
being Jamie Morgan and Eric Shade Ballerrows from formerly Code Orange.

369
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,000
They're kind of industrial electronic producing thing, and you know,

370
00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,879
from the listener of this single I've given it, there

371
00:16:59,879 --> 00:17:04,119
are some you know, quite aggressive I suppose, electronic elements

372
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,960
that do you know, they feel like coming from you know,

373
00:17:07,039 --> 00:17:09,480
the the minds of you know, the guys behind Code

374
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,039
Orange and now Nowhere to Run as well. Yeah, like

375
00:17:12,079 --> 00:17:13,640
I said, I think We're going to be talking a

376
00:17:13,799 --> 00:17:17,119
lot more about Loath into the second half of this year,

377
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,000
as finally the you know, follow up album campaign really

378
00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:24,359
gets underway. But big news and certainly probably the most

379
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,119
spoken about heavy release sort of come out in July

380
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,039
on the horizon there. But we also have I suppose

381
00:17:30,039 --> 00:17:32,799
actually to keep it on the Loathe front. I will

382
00:17:32,799 --> 00:17:35,960
add in here that also Outbreak Festival has added a

383
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,799
handful of new bands to there. This is now the main,

384
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,440
you know, the actual Outbreak Weekend rather than the various

385
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,680
like sub outbreaks that appear throughout the year. But the

386
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,640
main you know, Manchester Weekender has been added. You know,

387
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,599
Loathe are on there obviously, but also Joyce Manner are

388
00:17:49,599 --> 00:17:53,640
on their Algernon CADWALLADRT, which apparently I'm not familiar with

389
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,880
that name at all, but I think you know, some

390
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,599
excitement out there for that lip critic Shady Nasty, I

391
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,799
Promised World, which is the post hardcore bound who put

392
00:18:01,799 --> 00:18:04,759
out that kind of really myspacey revival EP earlier this year,

393
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,960
Thistle East Exchange and Midriff, so a few cool names

394
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,480
therefore the Outbreak goers. But back to our July the

395
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,599
seventeenth album announcements. The Mensingers have got their new album

396
00:18:16,599 --> 00:18:19,079
which is called Everything I Ever Saw, and there is

397
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,720
a single out from that called Chance Encounters as well.

398
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,200
The main sort of news I suppose that is, you know,

399
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,960
of interest coming with this particular Mensinger's album announcement here

400
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,119
is that they are working with will Yip again on

401
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,519
the production front. And the last couple of Mensinger's albums,

402
00:18:32,519 --> 00:18:34,240
actually it was the last one, which is the one

403
00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:36,559
I think they did without Will yet, but the last

404
00:18:36,559 --> 00:18:38,079
couple of Menzeger's albums that people have had, you know,

405
00:18:38,079 --> 00:18:41,200
they're kind of minor production quibbles and stuff about them,

406
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,680
I suppose interestingly, But with this and there's a single

407
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,920
out called Chance Encounters, which is the first track on

408
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,119
it as well, I think there's a lot of celebration

409
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,400
going around really that Yeah, Mensingers are kind of sounding

410
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,079
how I don't know, people in an ideal world seem

411
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,799
to want the Mensingers to sound and yeah, a really

412
00:18:57,839 --> 00:19:00,599
nice chorus on this track. So good to looking forward

413
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,680
to the men Singers on July the seventeenth and that record,

414
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,559
and then the third record that's coming around that date

415
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,039
coming announced this week is Boundaries, the again an interesting

416
00:19:11,519 --> 00:19:14,960
thing to observe, you know, metallic hardcore band essentially, and

417
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,680
how they have kind of gone down. What I'm referring

418
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,359
to there is that they recently put out early a

419
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,480
single from this record that fascinated me because they put

420
00:19:22,519 --> 00:19:25,519
out a single that was so like blocked up in

421
00:19:25,559 --> 00:19:29,359
the mix that their fans you know, retaliated against it,

422
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,359
and they ended up retracting it and re releasing it

423
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,359
again with a different mix, which was a really fascinating

424
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,240
turn of events for me. But their new album is

425
00:19:37,279 --> 00:19:40,599
called Yearning the Beautiful After, and I am I guess

426
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,480
I'm curious to observe again how that goes down with

427
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,839
people and what kind of route they've followen followed it

428
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,720
with considering the again that particular mishap they had. But

429
00:19:47,799 --> 00:19:50,200
there you go. No album announced right now, but the

430
00:19:50,279 --> 00:19:51,920
last new single that I want to talk about this

431
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,559
week comes from Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats. We've put

432
00:19:54,599 --> 00:19:56,880
a track called Don't Let It Control. And this comes

433
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,839
I think, ahead of a new album that's coming out

434
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,839
sometime soon also right now. It comes with a UK

435
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,480
tour announcement for November of this year, where they're going

436
00:20:04,519 --> 00:20:09,200
to be playing Wolverhampton, Manchester, Glasgow, Leeds, Bristol, Southampton, Brighton,

437
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,680
Norwich and Nottingham, so quite a you know, a decently

438
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,920
extensive UK tour there as well. And this really excites

439
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,079
me because I'm class and debates are you know, a

440
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,880
band I absolutely love, but considering it's only been about

441
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,240
two years since they did that like really mad sort

442
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:29,319
of yellow soundtrack style concept record they did, and they

443
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,119
did a very limited tour, performing just very small handful

444
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,160
of shows of like that iteration of the band. Wish

445
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,920
I'd got into seeing that it didn't work out for me,

446
00:20:38,039 --> 00:20:41,400
but I kind of assumed after again how much work

447
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,599
went into that. I suppose that we might not actually

448
00:20:43,599 --> 00:20:45,480
see Unclass in the Dead Beats again for like another

449
00:20:45,559 --> 00:20:47,160
few years and they would kind of, you know again

450
00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:50,599
disappear for a while. So I'm surprised and not at

451
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,480
all ungrateful to see them emerging again so soon. It's

452
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,920
been a long time since I've seen them do a

453
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,640
headline show, so I am really excited about the tour,

454
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,440
but of course a record coming as well, and considering,

455
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,160
like I said, the very particular direction that their last

456
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,880
album went into this track that they've released, Don't Let

457
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:13,200
It control really like fully going back into the sleazy

458
00:21:13,519 --> 00:21:16,440
killer sixties seventies rock and roll side a thing of

459
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:20,319
it basically like there are hand claps in this, there's

460
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,640
the old classic trick of the one piano line just

461
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,440
being hammered on it like it's a rager, this track

462
00:21:25,519 --> 00:21:26,799
in the you know, the kind of confines of what

463
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,559
Uncle Aid do. So very much looking forward and excited

464
00:21:29,559 --> 00:21:32,960
about that coming on the horizon. Then we have Metallica

465
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,880
continuing their reissue campaign, their massive expanded, you know, fucking

466
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,000
eleven discs for every single one recy campaign of what

467
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,559
has so far been. I think their entire catalog reload

468
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,759
is coming soon. Obviously Load came last year, so there

469
00:21:46,799 --> 00:21:50,440
was a lot of you know, Load thirtieth anniversary reassessment

470
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,000
and stuff like that that was going on last year.

471
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,839
Reload following on that, coming out June the twenty sixth,

472
00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:00,640
again bound to be countless bonus discs and content and

473
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,039
stuff like that. I think people will be very very

474
00:22:03,079 --> 00:22:05,480
curious if it stops there. Maybe they'll do garaging you know,

475
00:22:05,519 --> 00:22:08,319
the lead after the year after perhaps, but I think

476
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,759
people are basically really waiting, are we going to get

477
00:22:10,799 --> 00:22:13,480
seven discs of Saint Anger, I do hope so on

478
00:22:13,519 --> 00:22:17,279
a personal level, but Reload coming in an expanded form

479
00:22:17,839 --> 00:22:22,440
in June. Then just a couple more show announcements, the Cavalerras,

480
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,359
the Cavallera Brothers, they have added one more date in

481
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,200
the UK of their KOSAD current celebrations in the live

482
00:22:29,279 --> 00:22:31,400
environment they have been doing. The Cavalleras, of course, have

483
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,799
gone through most of the classic Sepultury records. They did Roots,

484
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,680
they did Arizon, Beneath the Remains Together, they did Morbid

485
00:22:37,759 --> 00:22:39,920
Visions and Best Your Devastation together with a little bit

486
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,400
of Schizophrenia in there as well. Currently doing KOSAD. They

487
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,759
are performing that download, but if you're not at download

488
00:22:44,799 --> 00:22:46,920
then I believe just ahead of that weekend, on Thursday,

489
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,799
the eleventh of June, they are playing the Electric Ballroom

490
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,359
in London, which, again, considering that's how little diary that

491
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,240
record is, that's like a decently intimate setting I think

492
00:22:54,279 --> 00:22:56,640
to actually see them playing, you know, some of the greatest,

493
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,839
most classic metal songs of all time, I think it's

494
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,319
mad that of all of these Cavallera anniversary you know,

495
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,079
classic Sepultura shows that they've done, the only one that

496
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,799
I have seen is the first wave black beltle one

497
00:23:07,839 --> 00:23:10,440
when they did like Morbid Visions and BESTHW with Devastation.

498
00:23:10,599 --> 00:23:12,440
I didn't see Roots because I'm pretty sure they only

499
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,200
played it like in London at download. I don't really

500
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:15,680
know where I was when the Horizon one was happening,

501
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,119
but I don't think it was as extensive and the

502
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,400
same thing happening here with Kosad, why is the one

503
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,319
they decided to do the proper like expanded ukked all

504
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,400
for the most niche one that the least people like.

505
00:23:27,519 --> 00:23:29,279
I mean, I'm really happy about it. I think if

506
00:23:29,319 --> 00:23:30,440
any of them are going to pick to see I

507
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:31,960
would have picked them more with Visions one, just because

508
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,799
those are songs that you are never getting seen outside

509
00:23:34,839 --> 00:23:36,319
of a troop to do maybe you know in your

510
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,000
average either Cavallera or sepulteer a set and it was

511
00:23:39,039 --> 00:23:41,759
really cool and unique to see that, But bizarre that

512
00:23:41,759 --> 00:23:44,519
that's the one that like had the widest know certainly

513
00:23:44,559 --> 00:23:47,359
in the UK at least the widest accessibility. But everybody

514
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,279
in London who is going to go along to see

515
00:23:49,279 --> 00:23:52,200
the Kosad show, I'm jealous of you enjoy And then

516
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,559
finally here damnation, who are really continuing at the moment

517
00:23:55,559 --> 00:23:58,000
of basically like adding new stuff every week, aren't they,

518
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,720
But they are adding yet more bands this time, just

519
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,279
as I'm going to record here, they have added three

520
00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:07,599
bands to this year's bill, Pelican, Frontier and Krallis Pelican,

521
00:24:07,759 --> 00:24:10,799
a you know, quite revered post rock post metal band

522
00:24:10,799 --> 00:24:13,240
from the around the noughties. Frontier, I think a lot

523
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,680
of people in the T and M audience will will

524
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,680
know and be fond of really like one of the noisiest,

525
00:24:17,759 --> 00:24:21,160
kind of mathy hardcore metal bands in the world at

526
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,279
the moment. Really, Krallis feels like the real like wild

527
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:25,920
card on this not in terms of fitting in a

528
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,920
Damnation bill because they do perfectly, But I don't think

529
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,680
they've ever played the UK. If they have, it's certainly

530
00:24:31,759 --> 00:24:34,400
very very limited, a very you know, part of that

531
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,400
kind of American and I think New York based experimental, jazzy,

532
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,200
procy black metal scene. But like I think they've just

533
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,920
played road Buns, so maybe they're just expanding into Europe

534
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:44,759
a little bit at last. But like that's a real

535
00:24:45,079 --> 00:24:47,640
rare get to see Krales on there, so that's pretty

536
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,079
awesome actually not one that I saw coming, and happy

537
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,680
happy to see it there. So yeah, that's the news.

538
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,480
This week. We have got over in patreonland for That's

539
00:24:57,519 --> 00:25:00,960
Not Metal. Coming pretty soon, you know, in the next

540
00:25:01,039 --> 00:25:02,480
kind of week or so, we are going to be

541
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,160
doing the album club Pack that we announced on last

542
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,519
week's show. Last week we did the reviews here, but

543
00:25:07,559 --> 00:25:10,759
we also revealed the next coming album club Pack, which

544
00:25:10,799 --> 00:25:13,799
I will reiterate here features Counter Your Blessings from Bringing

545
00:25:13,799 --> 00:25:16,440
the Horizon because obviously we have to reassess that at

546
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,039
this exact moment. It is also going to feature the

547
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,200
party masterpiece of Eath Thrash Metal that is Municipal Wastes

548
00:25:22,319 --> 00:25:24,039
the Art partying. We're also going to be going back

549
00:25:24,079 --> 00:25:26,640
in time with Rollo Tamassi, another great UK band from

550
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,799
a similar era but still going strong today of course,

551
00:25:28,799 --> 00:25:32,079
but we are going back to their debut era record Hysterics.

552
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,680
And then in the underground Metallee corner, we're gonna be

553
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,680
talking about a real cult favorite of mine, maybe one

554
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,799
that not many people know, but I encourage people to,

555
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,440
you know, listen out for Caladan Brood's Echoes of Battle.

556
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,480
And then once that is in the can, we are

557
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,920
going to be looking to do the second part of

558
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,680
our Corn Special that is again currently underway, our current

559
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,079
band special that's happening on the Patreon getting into all

560
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,720
things Corn and the Godfathers of new Metal of course,

561
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,079
so that is what is coming up. Patroon of com

562
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,440
Slash that it's not metal for everybody who chooses to

563
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,720
support this podcast, Thank you very much for doing so.

564
00:26:04,319 --> 00:26:07,119
Releases this time, we have two week's worth of releases

565
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,960
because last week was the reviews show and so last

566
00:26:10,039 --> 00:26:13,680
Friday along with the records that we reviewed throughout last Friday.

567
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,039
So that's the at the Gates album and the Portrayal

568
00:26:16,039 --> 00:26:18,519
of Guilt album that we spoke about more in depth.

569
00:26:18,559 --> 00:26:21,000
I hope that everybody has been listening to those because

570
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,799
you really should give both of those listen if you

571
00:26:22,839 --> 00:26:25,559
have not. But elsewhere we had the Foo Fighters, the

572
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,640
probably the biggest rock band in the world right Your

573
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,200
Food Fighters Your Favorite Toy album came out, and this

574
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,720
is interesting because I've seen basically no talk about it,

575
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,039
certainly in our audience, like no one seems to care.

576
00:26:37,079 --> 00:26:38,839
We're probably not going to review it for that reason.

577
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,880
And I you know, I listened to the record. I

578
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,920
think you know, the single didn't instill a lot of

579
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,640
hope in US, and I wouldn't say it's necessarily a

580
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,480
complete car crash of you know, a total embarrassment of

581
00:26:50,759 --> 00:26:53,400
an album, but I don't think it's a good record,

582
00:26:53,519 --> 00:26:55,440
and it kind of sounds like an album full of

583
00:26:55,519 --> 00:26:57,960
white limos if white Limo was not a good song

584
00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,839
and didn't make you want to listen to. It's a

585
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:01,720
very strange thing that they've got going on where they seem

586
00:27:01,759 --> 00:27:03,759
to have like that, I don't know, the millionaire rock

587
00:27:03,839 --> 00:27:07,119
star compensation that goes on, which is what again. When

588
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:08,519
the single came out, I was kind of liking it

589
00:27:08,519 --> 00:27:10,400
in my mind to something like Father or Motherfuckers by

590
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,240
Green Day, because I think it's a similar attitude that

591
00:27:12,279 --> 00:27:16,200
somehow happens where in order to make something seem raw

592
00:27:16,279 --> 00:27:18,039
and like off the you know, the garage floor, all

593
00:27:18,039 --> 00:27:21,680
that kind of stuff, they put this like really tinny,

594
00:27:22,039 --> 00:27:26,039
like kind of contrived production filter on it essentially, But

595
00:27:26,079 --> 00:27:29,599
the songs themselves are often still quite tepid and quite boring,

596
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,759
so you end up with this weird mixture of like

597
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:36,000
flat songs that also sound like quite painful, and it's

598
00:27:36,039 --> 00:27:39,759
like kind of unlistenable sometimes again, strange effect. I don't

599
00:27:39,759 --> 00:27:41,240
think it really worked for them. Maybe it's what they

600
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,400
needed to do at this moment in time on a

601
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:47,160
personal level, but yeah, not not great. The Free Fighters record,

602
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,839
I also presume not great is the anti Afflictions album

603
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:51,440
House of Cars that came out last week. And then

604
00:27:51,559 --> 00:27:54,960
fucking hell Real Rogues Gallery here a tray you also

605
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,519
put at the end is not the end. But we

606
00:27:57,519 --> 00:28:00,440
also have the returning you know, a good decade or

607
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:04,000
so into now their reunion Space Rock, Post hardk or

608
00:28:04,039 --> 00:28:06,200
whatever you want to call them. Failure came back with

609
00:28:06,279 --> 00:28:10,240
Location Lost. Then one of the most revered and consistent

610
00:28:10,279 --> 00:28:12,799
bands in the hardcore world, Terror put Out. I think

611
00:28:12,799 --> 00:28:14,599
they're in like double figures of albums at this point

612
00:28:14,599 --> 00:28:18,440
in time. Still suffer a newer upcoming name on the again,

613
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,480
kind of metallic hardcore, a bit of scream o front

614
00:28:21,039 --> 00:28:25,119
seen some chatter about it. Roman Candle had unadulterated into

615
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,599
the sludge world. There's Armed for Apocalypse with the Earth

616
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,200
is Breathing beneath Me Who that's again kind of a

617
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,519
cult sludge band. But I know that bands like Kondura

618
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,240
and stuff like that have been very keen on like

619
00:28:36,279 --> 00:28:38,720
bigging them up in terms of that just like low, churning,

620
00:28:38,759 --> 00:28:43,359
burly kind of sound math rock. I suppose instrumental, you know,

621
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,960
Noodley stuff Doja Cat's favorite, Guy Plini. He put out

622
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,599
an album called an Unnameable Desire. There was another solo

623
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:51,839
album I think he has a few at this stage,

624
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,319
but another solo album from you know, an ever creative figure,

625
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,400
Aina Solberg from Lepres his album vox A Culta. Then

626
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,279
to go back into some I don't know. We weard

627
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,319
like sixties seventies proto metal. I think it's kind of

628
00:29:03,319 --> 00:29:06,640
the vibe here as a band called Admiral Sir Cloudsly

629
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,319
Shovel with the Trouble with the Shovel, of course, move

630
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,960
slightly forward in the heavy metal timeline to get to

631
00:29:13,079 --> 00:29:15,039
more the eighties period. And there's a band called demon

632
00:29:15,119 --> 00:29:19,559
Spell with Blessed be the Dark, six feet under death

633
00:29:19,599 --> 00:29:22,039
and Roll Chris Barnes, of course, a death metal legend

634
00:29:22,039 --> 00:29:24,440
who has not necessarily been in his finest form recently.

635
00:29:24,759 --> 00:29:28,039
But their new album called Next to Die came out

636
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,519
Scimitar Wild. We are definitely We're gonna put this one

637
00:29:31,559 --> 00:29:33,359
in the next reviews bag. Talk more about this, because

638
00:29:33,359 --> 00:29:34,880
I think this is a band that you know, we

639
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,240
can infuse about a band called Scimitar, kind of on

640
00:29:38,319 --> 00:29:41,400
the boundary between like old school heavy metal and the

641
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,160
most vicious, scathing, wild black metal that you can imagine.

642
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,000
I'm seeing them this weekend as part of the whole

643
00:29:47,039 --> 00:29:49,160
incineration you know, goings on, so I'm looking forward to that.

644
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,640
But they're Simtarium two album. We spoke about the first

645
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,119
one a little bit last year, but we're gonna go

646
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,640
a little bit harder maybe on this one. Then in

647
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,240
the black metal world, the Scottish black metal band Notock

648
00:29:59,279 --> 00:30:01,799
and Ursa returning with their first record in a little while.

649
00:30:01,839 --> 00:30:04,640
I think a Cry for the Slain UK black metal

650
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,960
kind of more straightforward, just you know, bloodthirsty stuff, blood

651
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,720
Countess with imperatric sanguinous, very good Creeper would approve. And

652
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,640
then a couple of EPs from last week. This is

653
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,559
again kind of interesting. They just sort of like leaked

654
00:30:16,559 --> 00:30:20,400
out there. Sepulturer put out The Cloud of Unknowing as

655
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,759
a three or four track EP, I think, and it

656
00:30:22,799 --> 00:30:27,200
has been described as the last new Sepulturer release, and

657
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:28,640
I think it's I don't know, it's kind of a

658
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,160
shame that you know, this absolutely again legendary band and

659
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,319
still had decently been putting out good records in the

660
00:30:33,359 --> 00:30:36,480
last decade or so, with you know, the reigorated lineup

661
00:30:36,519 --> 00:30:39,960
and everything. Their final you know offering as part of

662
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:41,720
their kind of farewell you know, campaign's been going for

663
00:30:41,799 --> 00:30:44,240
quite a while now, was this, like you can, short

664
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,680
little EP that just kind of seemed to come and

665
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,599
go because maybe it's an EP format I don't really know,

666
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,880
but there you go, the last SEPULTURER EP. I think

667
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,200
it's decent. I don't think it's as good as the

668
00:30:53,319 --> 00:30:54,960
last couple of albums they've done, because it is worth

669
00:30:55,039 --> 00:30:57,720
noting that obviously, you know, Eloksa Grande, who had really

670
00:30:57,759 --> 00:30:59,799
injected a lot of life blood back into that band

671
00:30:59,799 --> 00:31:02,240
when joined on drums, is you know, not in Sepultuary

672
00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:04,000
now because he's in Slept not obviously. So I think

673
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,440
it's the first thing they've done in a while without

674
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,359
him on it. And it's not as you know, again

675
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,160
wild as those, but there is some weird maybe it

676
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,480
doesn't all come together, but kind of the strange, creative,

677
00:31:13,839 --> 00:31:16,920
you know, eccentricity and kind of Maverick quality that I

678
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,599
definite they always got credit for with like orchestration and

679
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,279
you know, fucking world music kind of coming together and

680
00:31:24,279 --> 00:31:25,920
stuff like that in a way that is like really

681
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,519
off the wall. You can hear on this EP. Again,

682
00:31:28,519 --> 00:31:30,319
I don't know if it entirely works at all times,

683
00:31:30,319 --> 00:31:33,039
but at least it's a swinging for the fences kind

684
00:31:33,039 --> 00:31:34,839
of final statement, even if it is essentially again just

685
00:31:34,839 --> 00:31:36,880
a short little EP. And then we also had from

686
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,200
the upcoming death metal world Vomit fourth put an EP

687
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:43,640
called in the Name of the father Less. Notable releases,

688
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,000
I think this week as we come to the first

689
00:31:46,079 --> 00:31:48,039
of May, but still a few out there that you

690
00:31:48,079 --> 00:31:50,599
are going to want to be interested in. We have

691
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,920
the new album from American Football, the you know second

692
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,880
wave emo Midwest emo legends, I think, you know, maybe

693
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,920
their third record at this stage of the comeback here.

694
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,839
They've had it to American Football LP four I believe.

695
00:32:04,319 --> 00:32:06,799
Then we have a Kneecap, obviously of course not even

696
00:32:06,839 --> 00:32:09,759
really a rock band, but certainly have you know, you

697
00:32:09,799 --> 00:32:11,920
know ingratiate themselves into the hearts of many a you know,

698
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,559
T and M world type listener. So Kneecap, the Irish

699
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,920
hip hop act. You do not need me to tell

700
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,759
you who her kneecap Are but their record Fenian is

701
00:32:19,839 --> 00:32:23,839
out today. Then there is seven Dust again long running

702
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,960
sort of part new metal, part American radio rock. There

703
00:32:28,359 --> 00:32:30,000
god knows how many abs they have, but their album

704
00:32:30,039 --> 00:32:32,599
called One is out. Then as we go into again

705
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,880
some homegrown bands here from from the UK, we have

706
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,559
a Cage Fight, who are a upcoming sort of thrashy

707
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,759
hardcore type mix of sensibilities. There. I think they are

708
00:32:43,799 --> 00:32:45,960
again attracting a few more fans and a few you know,

709
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,880
heads turning towards them around this point in time in

710
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,079
the UK scene. So interesting to see if you know,

711
00:32:50,119 --> 00:32:52,559
this record brings them a little bit more of that

712
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,200
kind of thing the records called Exzuvia. Then we have Venom,

713
00:32:56,279 --> 00:32:59,759
of course, the you know, the the pioneers of blackened

714
00:32:59,799 --> 00:33:02,000
metal if you like black metal or not. They were

715
00:33:02,039 --> 00:33:03,720
certainly you know, part of that, weren't they. And I

716
00:33:03,759 --> 00:33:06,200
must point out that this is the main Venom, that

717
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,480
this is the one that's fronted by Kronos, rather than

718
00:33:08,759 --> 00:33:11,400
Venom Inc. Which is the slightly more I don know,

719
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,559
regularly seen one these days, but featuring you know, other guys.

720
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,160
Venom's album Into Oblivion their first and a Handful of

721
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:22,000
Years is out today again into more underground, occult and

722
00:33:22,119 --> 00:33:24,559
strange sort of heavy metal circles. There's a band called

723
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,960
Spell with an album called Wretched Heart, very raw, like

724
00:33:29,279 --> 00:33:31,480
properly low fire, but if you're into that, then you

725
00:33:31,519 --> 00:33:34,400
can go for this black metal band called Black Salice

726
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,839
from Portugal, I think, with their album called Votive Fire.

727
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,799
There is a band called Effluence, which is a band

728
00:33:39,839 --> 00:33:41,559
who we mentioned a little bit at the end of

729
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,799
last year. This is the band who came up doing

730
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,200
essentially like brutal death metal, but on the record they

731
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,920
put out last year there was no guitars instead all

732
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,640
like mad jazz piano. They have another record out today

733
00:33:51,759 --> 00:33:56,519
called Anticholinergic Derangement, and sonically I don't know what's going

734
00:33:56,519 --> 00:33:58,400
on this one because I haven't heard any of it yet,

735
00:33:58,440 --> 00:33:59,960
but they seem like a kind of band who will

736
00:33:59,960 --> 00:34:03,480
be again doing something wild and maverick with their sort

737
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,799
of chosen form of you know, underground toilet stuff from

738
00:34:06,839 --> 00:34:09,119
record to record, so I trust there'll be something interesting

739
00:34:09,159 --> 00:34:11,840
going on. And then finally an EP out today from

740
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,840
again a UK based kind of tech death band called

741
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:19,320
Infected Death. Amongst other things, they feature the former bassist

742
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,400
of Pupil Slicer. At this stage he's in that band

743
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,119
with their EP called Invictor. So that is your round

744
00:34:24,199 --> 00:34:25,880
up today. Thank you very much for being with me.

745
00:34:26,119 --> 00:34:29,639
We will be back next week, not only with the

746
00:34:30,039 --> 00:34:31,960
again the Patreon update where we're gonna do that album

747
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,639
club Imagine. We are going to be counting all all

748
00:34:33,639 --> 00:34:35,760
the blessings that you want us to count. But next

749
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:37,199
week we're back here as well, and I will be

750
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,440
here with a report from everything that went down at

751
00:34:39,519 --> 00:34:43,559
Incineration Festival in London right now. After this, I am

752
00:34:43,559 --> 00:34:45,440
off tonight to go see Dragging to Sunlight and then

753
00:34:45,559 --> 00:34:47,480
kick off that whole weekend of celebration, So we'll be

754
00:34:47,519 --> 00:34:49,639
back for that next week. Cheers everybody. Bye,
