00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and welcome to Hyperblast here on That's Not Metal.

2
00:00:30,359 --> 00:00:32,880
This is your weekly rock and heavy metal news show.

3
00:00:33,119 --> 00:00:36,439
My name is parn Haish. I am joined by no

4
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,520
one at the moment. We are proving all very scattered

5
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,560
right now in those small part because myself, Sam and

6
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,079
Mark are obviously all seeing Poison the Well this week,

7
00:00:46,119 --> 00:00:48,079
but all on a different days at different dates, so

8
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,840
very scattered at the moment. So I apologize that it

9
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,439
is just me here today speaking to you. But I've

10
00:00:55,439 --> 00:00:57,320
got duties, an't. I am here to talk to you

11
00:00:57,399 --> 00:00:59,159
about the news and let you know everything's going on.

12
00:00:59,159 --> 00:01:02,240
I've got to give you a week releases, and I

13
00:01:02,719 --> 00:01:05,120
discuss a little bit what has been going on in

14
00:01:05,159 --> 00:01:07,760
the news this week. My poison Weld date has not

15
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:12,239
happened yet, but I did just see the turnover tenth

16
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,519
anniversary Peripheral Vision tour, which we've been building two for

17
00:01:16,599 --> 00:01:18,680
quite a while. I suppose we did an album club

18
00:01:19,359 --> 00:01:22,200
in advance of it a couple of months ago, and

19
00:01:22,359 --> 00:01:27,040
in general, the idea of you know, those various email

20
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,159
and alternative rock albums and whatnot that have been celebrating

21
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:32,239
these such milestones in the last couple of years, this

22
00:01:32,799 --> 00:01:35,359
as we discussed on that album, Club felt like one

23
00:01:35,359 --> 00:01:38,280
of the bigger ones in terms of not just the

24
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,560
seminal nature of the album, and it has become an

25
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,159
absolutely iconic, timeless, you know, discussed every day on the

26
00:01:45,159 --> 00:01:48,560
internet type album of that scene. But also they are

27
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,200
a band where, you know, I think Turnover a generally

28
00:01:51,239 --> 00:01:53,000
good band, but I think it's fair to say that

29
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,760
they have one album that massively overshadows the rest of

30
00:01:56,799 --> 00:02:00,439
their catalog in terms of public again awareness and discussion

31
00:02:00,439 --> 00:02:03,079
of it. And it's one where maybe certain people will

32
00:02:03,079 --> 00:02:06,920
have been waiting for Turnover to come and do this thing,

33
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:09,159
and so you know, we saw that with the venue

34
00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:12,479
sizes and such that they butt for it. And yeah,

35
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,879
going into the show, like we you know, I've said

36
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:20,800
before when we've discussed it, one of the great emo

37
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,800
or shoe gaze albums of I would say the twenty

38
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,879
first century at least, Like it's a real landmark of

39
00:02:27,879 --> 00:02:31,879
that world for its era, and just in terms of

40
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,560
how much people clearly are absolutely obsessed with and resonate

41
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,080
with the songs on that album, This show was basically

42
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,080
what I had expected to be, right, you know, like

43
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,000
we said a couple thousand people in the venue, all

44
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,360
singing along to honestly every single word of the likes

45
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,280
of Cutting My Fingers Off and New Scream and Dizzy

46
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,280
on the Come Down, et cetera. Just very pleasant, very affirming,

47
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,319
very sonically enveloping, you know, fairly minimal production and everything,

48
00:03:04,319 --> 00:03:06,039
but you know, kind of nice light shows and stuff

49
00:03:06,039 --> 00:03:08,599
like that. They had a again, a similar sort of

50
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,520
shoegazy alternative rock band called Glixon supporting them, and also

51
00:03:12,599 --> 00:03:15,240
wiki Fa Springs Eternal, which is a guy who I

52
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,560
think he used to be in Tiger's Jaw Right. I

53
00:03:17,599 --> 00:03:21,439
wasn't expecting it to just be country music like it.

54
00:03:21,439 --> 00:03:23,800
It was kind of like emo towns Vans and or something,

55
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,199
and we were line dancing a bit, but you know,

56
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,680
I didn't mind it. But yeah, Turnover running through the

57
00:03:28,719 --> 00:03:31,319
whole peripheral vision. I believe we are the one date

58
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,639
that actually got more peripheral vision than anybody else because

59
00:03:35,039 --> 00:03:38,280
they played the song like slow Disappearing, but halfway through

60
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,800
stopped it because there was some kind of like buzzing

61
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,439
noise that was going on one of the apps or something,

62
00:03:42,439 --> 00:03:43,879
and they were like, hey, we're going to sort this out.

63
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,840
So they played half of that then to pick up

64
00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:48,960
the energy when they kind of eventually came back, went

65
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,560
it to take my head and then went back around

66
00:03:50,599 --> 00:03:53,400
and played like Slow Disappearing in full, So we got

67
00:03:53,639 --> 00:03:56,879
more peripheral vision than everybody else. We thought they couldn't

68
00:03:56,919 --> 00:04:00,759
be more, but we proved there was. And after that

69
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,639
a smattering of other tunes, Humbless Pleasures as really you

70
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,759
know well loved one from around a similar sort of era,

71
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,120
a couple of I think were new songs, and they

72
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,680
sounded you know, maybe this is the thing that the

73
00:04:13,719 --> 00:04:15,919
anniversary tours. You wonder how kind of back in the

74
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,399
zone people get. One of them was like pretty upbeat,

75
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,439
and the other one had you those similar sort of

76
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,920
you know, shoegazy guitar lines that you'd associate with songs

77
00:04:26,959 --> 00:04:30,920
like like Slow Disappearing or New Scream or whatever. And

78
00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:33,439
you know, they played at least one of the sort

79
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,480
of lounge ones from one of the previous records as well,

80
00:04:35,519 --> 00:04:40,439
and the dip of how visibly interested people were was

81
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,759
very noticeable. But I will say the brand new songs

82
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,240
they played didn't actually sound like that. So I am

83
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,959
intrigued by what new turnover you know, will be based

84
00:04:49,959 --> 00:04:53,000
on those those tracks we heard, and then they close

85
00:04:53,079 --> 00:04:55,839
on a song from Magnolia as well to really dial

86
00:04:55,879 --> 00:04:57,120
it back and be like, hey, if you were there

87
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,439
for perfer Revision, maybe remember this one from before. And

88
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,639
the switch into like old pop punk with people doing

89
00:05:02,639 --> 00:05:06,199
the finger points and everything was again very noticeable. But yeah,

90
00:05:06,319 --> 00:05:09,399
very very nice evening peripheral Vision Again, so many people

91
00:05:09,399 --> 00:05:13,120
will have been waiting for that particular occasion, and I

92
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,839
would say it lived up to that. So everybody who

93
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,000
has been waiting for the past ten years for that,

94
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,199
I'm very happy for everyone. So, like I said, we

95
00:05:23,319 --> 00:05:25,480
will be back with more discussion than everything else have

96
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,959
been going on next week. But what have I got

97
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,839
for you here to talk about this week? I guess

98
00:05:30,879 --> 00:05:32,279
you know this is a bit over a week old now,

99
00:05:32,319 --> 00:05:35,560
but we haven't spoken about yet. The much much hyped

100
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,120
it was being you know, teased and built up for,

101
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:40,800
like I'm gonna say, at least a week before it

102
00:05:40,879 --> 00:05:46,360
actually came out. The poppy Amy Lee Courtney, the Plant

103
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,120
combined song that was eventually released under the name The

104
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,160
End of You. The teas that were dropping of this

105
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,759
again with the you know, the three women in you know,

106
00:05:56,879 --> 00:05:59,920
matching black dresses and stuff like that. It very much

107
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,639
being pitched as kind of like, hey, the girls are uniting.

108
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,759
You know, I saw something like one of the various

109
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,040
kind of I think it might be. In the interview,

110
00:06:07,079 --> 00:06:09,600
Popy herself describing it, describing it as like the Lady

111
00:06:09,639 --> 00:06:14,040
Marmalade of I guess contemporary alternative metal or whatever. But

112
00:06:14,079 --> 00:06:16,839
the vibe very much like, hey, here are three you know,

113
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:21,319
female superstars of i'd say the modern era. Obviously, Amy

114
00:06:21,399 --> 00:06:24,600
Lee predates these other artists by a couple of decades

115
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,360
in terms of her prominence, but she is like the

116
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,439
almost the godmother of a certain vibe of this, so

117
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,000
getting her is very much like, you know, the bigger

118
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,839
get involved with it. So this was massively teased, and

119
00:06:35,879 --> 00:06:37,439
the song came out last week, and I guess it's

120
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,079
probably been pretty successful. It's probably been one of the

121
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,120
more you know, spoken about, listened to. I imagine, you know,

122
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,480
radio broadcast whatever type songs to oc come out in

123
00:06:45,519 --> 00:06:47,800
the last week or two in the world of heavy

124
00:06:47,879 --> 00:06:50,680
So to give an opinion on it's all right in

125
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,720
it because the three vocalists together are three singers who

126
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,800
you know to varying degrees. But I would say I

127
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,560
have been a fan of all three of these women

128
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,600
at their points. Spirit Box one of the best still

129
00:07:04,079 --> 00:07:07,079
contemporary metal core bands. Poppy I am you know, I

130
00:07:07,079 --> 00:07:10,199
am of the opinion that her most recent material that

131
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,319
has gone further into the modern metalcore kind of wheelhouse

132
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,439
I have not been interested in. But you know, she

133
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,839
is an interesting figure at least in our world, and

134
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,240
she has you know, been involved with various great you

135
00:07:22,279 --> 00:07:24,759
know music at points in time, and obviously Amy Lee

136
00:07:24,959 --> 00:07:28,000
is the absolute goat. So what have we got on

137
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,199
the three of this? It was telling that Poppy, despite

138
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,920
being I'm not sure often her spirit Bus, may possibly

139
00:07:35,319 --> 00:07:39,800
the smallest of these three artists. She's kind of the

140
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,600
first listed song. And so you assume, okay, is this

141
00:07:42,959 --> 00:07:45,240
you know, who originated this song? And obviously when it's

142
00:07:45,399 --> 00:07:49,079
been sold on three vocalists, what you know, instrumental players

143
00:07:49,079 --> 00:07:51,480
and so are involved with this. And you listen to

144
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,560
it and it sounds very much like the you know,

145
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,160
it's on the Sumerian Records YouTube channel and stuff. If

146
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,040
you go watch the video, so you imagine, okay, it's

147
00:08:02,079 --> 00:08:07,240
the Sumerian Records, perhaps Poppies you know, production team, modern

148
00:08:07,279 --> 00:08:12,759
style kind of alternative metalcore type sound. And then I

149
00:08:12,839 --> 00:08:14,759
mentioned an interview with Poppy that I read about the

150
00:08:14,759 --> 00:08:17,759
discussion of this, and it confirms that the genesis of

151
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,199
the song came from Poppy and of course Jordan Fish,

152
00:08:21,319 --> 00:08:24,680
who was involved with producing the last Poppy album. So

153
00:08:24,959 --> 00:08:27,439
they are the kind of, you know, the originators of

154
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,079
the song. And then the branches went out to get

155
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:34,720
Amy Lee and Courtney the Plant involved, and that makes

156
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:37,519
complete sense when my first impression of the song, having

157
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,840
not you know, read on that just yet was wow,

158
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:46,039
this is three star of the moment vocalists on what

159
00:08:46,279 --> 00:08:49,679
is musically less than the sum of that part in

160
00:08:49,759 --> 00:08:53,360
terms of just being a fairly generic old metal song,

161
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,720
right in terms of the three vocalists, it has also

162
00:08:56,759 --> 00:08:58,799
been noted, you know, if Sam was here speaking about

163
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,519
this with me, Sam would very much say this straight

164
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,559
out of the gate, that Amy Lee is here as

165
00:09:04,639 --> 00:09:07,960
the again almost like lifting up these other two younger vocalists,

166
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,759
right Like, Amyle is so well established, but she is

167
00:09:10,799 --> 00:09:14,200
the fucking star on it, right like even with Courtney

168
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,320
the Plant has arguably being the best thing about everything

169
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,840
that she has been involved with right up to this date,

170
00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:23,960
but she cannot quite match what Aby Lee is in

171
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,840
the song. Considering like I said, it's sort of a

172
00:09:25,919 --> 00:09:29,080
lead poppy artist song, I was really surprised when Amy

173
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,840
Lee like does the very first verse and also has

174
00:09:31,879 --> 00:09:33,519
most of the chorus as well. I would expect they,

175
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,000
again as the kind of the get, they would maybe

176
00:09:36,399 --> 00:09:38,240
you know, wait to deploy her until like a big

177
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,639
bridge or something. But no, she comes straight out the gate.

178
00:09:40,799 --> 00:09:42,639
She's carrying the chorus, which means that again the main

179
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,320
hook really is hers and amy Lee, you know, as

180
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,879
she tends to do, crushes it. You have Poppy being

181
00:09:49,919 --> 00:09:52,720
you know, solid back up in there, and then Courtney

182
00:09:52,759 --> 00:09:55,720
does get the kind of slightly heavier screen verse and

183
00:09:55,759 --> 00:09:59,600
everything kind of further into the song. But considering like

184
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,279
I said, Genesis and a poppy song or whatever, if

185
00:10:02,279 --> 00:10:06,000
you're gonna pin any at least vocalist onto, you know

186
00:10:06,039 --> 00:10:08,840
who is the leading presence on this rat it's Amy Lee, right,

187
00:10:08,879 --> 00:10:11,440
obviously it is. I don't think the song is bad.

188
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,679
I think again Amy Lee singing that chorus and everything,

189
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,559
I'm inclined to like that. The production of the song

190
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,639
itself is just kind of you know, perfunctory, shall we say,

191
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,559
Like the opportunity was there to create this big Lady

192
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,960
mamaalay for Goth's type song. The actual music is almost

193
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,480
arbitrary in that kind of conversation, but you know it's

194
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,159
decent and I think basically everything needs to be said

195
00:10:35,159 --> 00:10:36,919
about it comes from that that you've got these three

196
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,639
star vocalists, Amy Lee in particular smashing it. But the

197
00:10:40,039 --> 00:10:42,840
genesis in production of the song does come from the

198
00:10:42,919 --> 00:10:46,679
modern Jordan fish metalcore mill. So that's that big song

199
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,399
of the week the end of you. Perhaps more exciting

200
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,399
for some of you guys out there is the more

201
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,440
recent news that Earn have got their new album coming

202
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,120
out on January the thirtieth, So we're getting twenty twenty

203
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,840
six albums now. One of the first I guess heavily

204
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,679
anticipated albums of next year will be Earns new albums

205
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,039
Setting Fire to the Sky, and there's a song from

206
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,360
that out as well, So looking forward to Let's move

207
00:11:09,399 --> 00:11:12,919
on to some live announcements and what else could I

208
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,200
start with but the fact that Acid Bath are playing

209
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,279
a UK show. A UK show for acid Bath has

210
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,480
been confirmed and it is opening at the Tottenham Hotspurs

211
00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:31,279
Stadium for System of a Down. What Monkeys Poor have

212
00:11:31,399 --> 00:11:35,000
I invoked by by doing this that let's let's go,

213
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,039
you know, as the news actually really is a System

214
00:11:37,039 --> 00:11:38,519
of a Down's right, let's go from the top down

215
00:11:38,519 --> 00:11:40,679
System of a Down. This is no slight on them,

216
00:11:40,799 --> 00:11:43,879
System of a Down. I did not actually realize, because

217
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,320
I guess for the last every years we've just become

218
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,000
accustomed to seeing clips of System of a Down playing

219
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,559
huge you know, stadiums or open arenas or what you know,

220
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,000
open air shows or even whatever around the world, whether

221
00:11:57,039 --> 00:12:00,399
it be in Europe or in a mere occur or

222
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,200
whatever it may be. I did not realize that this

223
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:06,799
says it's nine years since System of Down's last UK show.

224
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,799
They do not feel like they've gone away, but at

225
00:12:09,879 --> 00:12:12,000
least from Marshals, I guess technically they have done so

226
00:12:12,879 --> 00:12:15,039
basically a decade since the last System show. Here that

227
00:12:15,159 --> 00:12:18,600
is big news. It comes as part of a large

228
00:12:19,279 --> 00:12:23,519
European stadium tour again across the whole continent. And it's

229
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,600
not just you know, with that opening band I mentioned.

230
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,639
Support across this tour comes from Queens the Stone Age, right,

231
00:12:29,799 --> 00:12:34,480
so a band who just headlined Download festival themselves, long

232
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:38,519
established arena band, et cetera huge band Queenstone stone Age

233
00:12:38,519 --> 00:12:41,960
coming as your kind of undercard main band that would

234
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,960
be enormous. And then, in the latest development of this

235
00:12:47,039 --> 00:12:49,279
ongoing insane Acid Bath saga that we've been covering for

236
00:12:49,279 --> 00:12:53,440
a couple of years now, Acid Baths first ever European tour,

237
00:12:53,519 --> 00:12:58,559
right because they were around so minimally in their initial

238
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,120
period that they weren't doing Youropean tours back then, right

239
00:13:01,159 --> 00:13:03,759
when they were signed to Rotten Records and releasing when

240
00:13:03,759 --> 00:13:06,519
the kite string pops. So the first ever European tour

241
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,360
for Acid Bath comes opening stadiums for System of a Down,

242
00:13:11,519 --> 00:13:14,600
and this is wild. Let's go for System of Down

243
00:13:14,639 --> 00:13:18,639
first off. Like I said, big European stadium tour. I'm

244
00:13:18,639 --> 00:13:22,399
not surprised to see them going for things of that size, considering,

245
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,600
you know, we're in this era when bands like Corn

246
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,120
and Deaftones and Nine Inch Nails, you know, those bands

247
00:13:28,159 --> 00:13:32,000
who have been bricks in the academy, download subheadliners whatever

248
00:13:32,039 --> 00:13:35,679
they're they're all you know, doing huge, selling out arena

249
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,120
tours or you know, headlining open air shows, all this

250
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,879
kind of stuff. System of a Down, who were already

251
00:13:40,919 --> 00:13:45,879
fucking massive, already like well established, you know, download headliner,

252
00:13:45,879 --> 00:13:48,879
arena band, whatever have you know, the most popular songs

253
00:13:48,919 --> 00:13:53,039
basically out of all of that cropper bands them doing,

254
00:13:53,039 --> 00:13:55,639
even though they haven't done anything of substance in twenty years.

255
00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:00,480
Them doing stadiums, I'm not surprised by. And we've got

256
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,799
seven dates across Europe here. The UK day, as said,

257
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,519
is the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. That's on July

258
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,360
the thirteenth. So if you're here, right, if you can

259
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,320
get to this, if all three bands are on form,

260
00:14:14,399 --> 00:14:17,200
then that's fucking incredible, right, Like that's a maybe like

261
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,840
a newer band on there somewhere, but that's an unbelievable bill, right,

262
00:14:20,879 --> 00:14:26,720
Like three obviously different tiers of popularity, but three classic bands,

263
00:14:26,759 --> 00:14:30,360
all with like, you know, fully classic albums in their locker.

264
00:14:31,039 --> 00:14:35,120
It's an amazing bill, Like, it's really something to be envied.

265
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:39,919
I'm gonna zoom in on again the most like unprecedented

266
00:14:39,919 --> 00:14:42,200
bit of this, And if you are a longtime T

267
00:14:42,279 --> 00:14:43,919
and M listener, you will know that we have been

268
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,600
again fixating on this a little bit. Acid Bath as

269
00:14:47,639 --> 00:14:50,159
the opener, and I have been even before it was

270
00:14:50,159 --> 00:14:53,759
actually announced that Acid Bath were you know, fucking reuniting

271
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,120
right like we were doing album clubs on them and

272
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,519
being like, ah, man, it would have been amazing to

273
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,279
you know, be part of this and see this and

274
00:15:00,279 --> 00:15:04,159
all this type stuff. Acid Bath finally having a UK show,

275
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,120
which was the thing that we were like, could this

276
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,320
in our dreams? Could this happen? But it is opening

277
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:14,159
a stadium right, fair enough to System of a down.

278
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,879
They've picked a cool fucking band to open for them,

279
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:21,320
right like it's it's a band who are obviously I

280
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,360
wouldn't say at this point they are like a completely

281
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,360
unknown band. Over the last two years, loads of people

282
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,840
who didn't know who Acid Bath were now know about

283
00:15:28,879 --> 00:15:31,919
them because the press and the media and the live

284
00:15:32,039 --> 00:15:34,879
industry in general hasn't shut up about them to a

285
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,759
degree like they have just been you know, announcing more

286
00:15:36,799 --> 00:15:38,279
and more shows and selling them out and all this

287
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,240
type stuff. Bigger and bigger beyond what we could have

288
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,720
dreamed acid Bath could be type show. So System seeing

289
00:15:43,759 --> 00:15:47,240
that opting as you know, hopefully people with some cool

290
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,840
taste to go, yeah, let's bring them along great and

291
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,759
everybody who gets to see acid Bath fucking on this

292
00:15:54,799 --> 00:15:57,679
European tour. I hope that it is you know what

293
00:15:57,759 --> 00:16:03,159
you wanted. I do not want Acid Baths only you

294
00:16:03,159 --> 00:16:07,399
know UK European performances to be opening stadiums, right, And

295
00:16:07,399 --> 00:16:09,639
it's not about system of a down system a down again,

296
00:16:09,639 --> 00:16:11,120
Like I said, if all three of these bands are great,

297
00:16:11,159 --> 00:16:13,440
then on good form, then it should be a fantastic night.

298
00:16:13,639 --> 00:16:17,679
But have you ever seen an opening band at a

299
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,039
stadium right with like different from an arena or even

300
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,879
different from an opening band or like a main stage

301
00:16:22,919 --> 00:16:25,360
festival or something, but an opening band in a stadium

302
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:29,679
and thought, wow, that was really fulfilling, right. I know again,

303
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,080
I've not been the most stadium shows in my time, maybe,

304
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,159
but I don't think I've ever seen that. And it's

305
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:39,519
because opening stadium sound is always shit right compared to

306
00:16:39,559 --> 00:16:41,519
what it is for the headline. It just inherently is

307
00:16:41,559 --> 00:16:44,240
like the levels and shit are not good for it.

308
00:16:44,559 --> 00:16:48,759
The stadium is like a third full at the time

309
00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:51,759
because of the weird nature of what Acid Bath is.

310
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,279
And now again they're gonna be playing to a system

311
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,559
of a down crowd. Are anyone who is in the

312
00:16:57,559 --> 00:16:59,559
fucking stadium at this point in time having gotten through

313
00:16:59,559 --> 00:17:02,720
the queuing systems or whatever? A fraction of those people

314
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,079
will actually know Acid Bar, so it would just be

315
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,759
like a tiny little conglomeration of people at the front

316
00:17:07,799 --> 00:17:09,799
who have managed to fight their way in to actually

317
00:17:10,039 --> 00:17:13,480
get in to see Acid Bath at the big new

318
00:17:13,519 --> 00:17:18,680
metal show. And obviously the price if your thing here

319
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,160
is I really want to see Acid Bath, I have

320
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,720
to their one UK show. The price is going to

321
00:17:22,759 --> 00:17:24,400
be you know, through the roof of what one of

322
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,440
their own shows would be, because it is a stadium

323
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,880
show with system of a down, right, So if your

324
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,960
thing is I want to see Acid Bath, you are

325
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:37,000
paying much more for an objectively worse experience. They play

326
00:17:37,079 --> 00:17:39,079
like half an hour or forty minutes or something, right

327
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,400
like this is it's not a substitute for either a

328
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,839
festival show or like you know, their own Acid Bath shows.

329
00:17:47,599 --> 00:17:51,359
So I'm in disbelief. The Acid Bath announced a UK

330
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,279
show and I am going for fuck's sake, because they're

331
00:17:54,799 --> 00:17:58,119
opening a stadium in London, right like that is just

332
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,880
it's just I'm sure everyone couldn't sympathize here. Even if

333
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,920
this does look great as a show, that's not the

334
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,519
prime way to see Acid Bath, who have just come back, right,

335
00:18:05,559 --> 00:18:08,720
we want it to be you know, geared around them

336
00:18:08,799 --> 00:18:10,640
somewhat and for them to have the actually ability to

337
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,079
put on the kind of show that people have been

338
00:18:12,079 --> 00:18:15,440
waiting however many years to see. Does this rule out

339
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,200
Acid bar from doing other shows, including perhaps their own shows?

340
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,079
I mean even like if there was a date that

341
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,839
was in an arena, so substantially you know, a better

342
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:26,960
venue with better sound, and they'd have longer time whatever.

343
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,119
If there was an arena date with Acid and Queens,

344
00:18:29,759 --> 00:18:32,599
I would be there in a fucking heartbeat, right because

345
00:18:32,599 --> 00:18:34,680
that is not only two bands I really really love,

346
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,640
but there's a you know, a kind of a sonic spirituality,

347
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,839
you know, kinschip between them. I think that goes really

348
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,039
well as a pairing system or like the outlier here

349
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,400
crazily but like I said, you know, in an indoor

350
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:51,160
venue it worked brilliantly. But does this outlie outlaw even

351
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,480
Acid Baths you know, own UK shows. I don't know.

352
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,640
I don't know what the you know, exclusivity of their

353
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,960
contracts would be there are Because it is seven stadium

354
00:19:02,039 --> 00:19:06,759
dates across about a month and a half or something.

355
00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:11,839
There are several days in between the dates, right, So

356
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,119
for example, if July the thirteenth is the London date.

357
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,440
The following date on the European tour is Warsaw on

358
00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:21,920
July the eighteenth. What are Acid Barth gonna be doing

359
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,119
for five days? I don't know. Maybe they'll be having

360
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,759
a lovely Polish holiday, but I guess there are you know,

361
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:29,960
there are certainly there are enough days in the calendar

362
00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:36,640
waiting for potential further shows and whatnot. So system huge

363
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,400
stadium tour. Congratulations to them on just you know, gunning

364
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,240
for the stars as I don't think I'm not surprised

365
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,480
to see them do, but clearly they are just unbelievably massive.

366
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,519
This is a hell of a stadium fucking tour. Like

367
00:19:48,839 --> 00:19:52,400
if you can get to this, this looks genuinely sensational,

368
00:19:52,519 --> 00:19:55,640
Like what an incredible three band bill. I am just

369
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,160
praying that on one of those off dates we get

370
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,519
something else in the with a much more appropriate place

371
00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:07,720
for Acid Bath to play, where the people who have

372
00:20:07,759 --> 00:20:09,839
been holding out to see Acid Bath are actually likely

373
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,960
to be able to get to see them, rather than

374
00:20:12,079 --> 00:20:15,920
having to compete with you know, the millions of people

375
00:20:16,559 --> 00:20:17,759
who are going to be wanting to see System of

376
00:20:17,799 --> 00:20:21,880
a down so crazy tour news there, Wow, System of

377
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,039
Down with Queens of stone Age and Acid Bath also

378
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,559
crazy news. Not quite as bewildering maybe, but you know,

379
00:20:28,559 --> 00:20:31,799
I did do a double take. Twisted Sister, who have

380
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,319
been you know, broken up now for approaching a decade,

381
00:20:35,519 --> 00:20:39,039
have announced that they will be returning in twenty twenty

382
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:44,519
six for their fiftieth anniversary World tour, And of course,

383
00:20:44,519 --> 00:20:47,359
what else could they promote this with but the phrase

384
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,319
we still want a rock twist? Did sister? I saw

385
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,359
them on their Fareworld tour and they were phenomenal, Like,

386
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:58,160
they were absolutely brilliant. It's the concept and the conversation

387
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,319
around reunions and do you leave bands when they're going away?

388
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,240
All that kind of thing. This is another one of

389
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,440
the more kind of like, oh you silly goose kind

390
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,279
of examples, because d Snyder has been quoted at times

391
00:21:09,319 --> 00:21:12,559
as basically saying that bands who have done a slayer,

392
00:21:12,599 --> 00:21:15,039
shall we say, and you know, gone on a farewell

393
00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:18,359
tour and then come back a little while afterwards, have

394
00:21:18,519 --> 00:21:20,599
you know in some way light And he said, you know,

395
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,119
you won't catch us doing that, And here they are

396
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,240
eating their fucking words. So it is what it is,

397
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,640
the fiftieth anniversary tour. This to me suggests that they

398
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,880
will come back basically for the year, right like they

399
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,559
will come back, They'll do a world tour to celebrate

400
00:21:35,559 --> 00:21:38,279
the fiftieth anniversary, this one off occasion, and then I

401
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,160
think they will go back to being broken up again.

402
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,319
I don't think this means we are going to see

403
00:21:42,319 --> 00:21:46,160
a continued, persistent Twisted Sister presence. I was also quite

404
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,279
disappointed to learn that again in the sort of small

405
00:21:48,279 --> 00:21:51,599
print of this mark the animal Mendoza is not going

406
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,519
to be involved with this, which if you have ever

407
00:21:53,559 --> 00:21:56,440
seen Twisted Sister alive, aside from d Snyder, he is,

408
00:21:56,519 --> 00:21:59,880
you know, the kind of most vocal presence on stage

409
00:22:00,079 --> 00:22:02,039
that they had. So it's a real shame actually that

410
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:03,599
you know, if you see this, it's not going to

411
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,079
quite be the Twisted Sister that as we kind of

412
00:22:07,599 --> 00:22:11,319
you know, envision and imagine them. But as said, Twisted

413
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,960
Sister historically have always been phenomenal life of that group

414
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,000
of bands, and if they want to come around for

415
00:22:18,279 --> 00:22:21,599
one last you know, fiftieth anniversary, show people what they got.

416
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:23,720
If you choose to go along to this, I can't

417
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,359
imagine it being a bad time. So eyes on Twisted's Sister,

418
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,200
I guessed in twenty twenty six more contemporary fair Military

419
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:36,319
Gun have announced a UK tour and European tour as well.

420
00:22:36,319 --> 00:22:39,440
Actually it's going to be coming around in twenty twenty six.

421
00:22:39,519 --> 00:22:42,799
Also that hits the UK in February. They're bringing White

422
00:22:42,839 --> 00:22:46,599
Reaper and Spiked House with them. And what venues are

423
00:22:46,599 --> 00:22:48,799
they doing? Electric Ballroom in London. So that's about the

424
00:22:48,799 --> 00:22:50,680
sort of size that Military Gun are doing at the moment.

425
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,559
But yeah, I'm sure a lot of people were excited

426
00:22:52,599 --> 00:22:57,000
about that if you are a miserable doom head like me.

427
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,720
There were some quite exciting news that was you know,

428
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:05,200
pub this week that Cathedral, the iconic, highly influential UK

429
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,759
doom band led by none other than Lee Dorian, formerly

430
00:23:08,799 --> 00:23:11,640
of Napalm Death, currently of Rise Above Records and so on.

431
00:23:12,079 --> 00:23:14,839
But they have also been broken up for over a

432
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,599
decade at this point, but they have announced that they discovered,

433
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:23,680
essentially in the vaults somewhere a thirty minute track that

434
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,519
they had not released. It was recorded and you know,

435
00:23:26,559 --> 00:23:29,799
written around the time of their final their swan song album,

436
00:23:29,839 --> 00:23:32,319
The Last Spire, which was released in twenty thirteen and

437
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,079
is fucking brilliant. That album. That's a really in terms

438
00:23:35,079 --> 00:23:38,279
of like, you know, leaving off type albums, Cathedral is

439
00:23:38,279 --> 00:23:40,279
the last Spire is one of the better ones out there.

440
00:23:40,319 --> 00:23:42,720
I think I still listen to it. Phenomenal stuff. So

441
00:23:42,759 --> 00:23:45,759
if this is as heavy as I imagine it must

442
00:23:45,839 --> 00:23:49,440
be as that Last Spire record, then that's tantalizing. But

443
00:23:49,839 --> 00:23:52,960
I don't know how the hell Like, if you in

444
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,279
your own life wrote a thirty minute song and like

445
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,000
had that line around, would you forget that you've done it?

446
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,119
Because that's what this is kind of phrase, Like, it

447
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,000
sounds like they wrote a thirty minute song and just went, oh, no,

448
00:24:07,559 --> 00:24:09,599
that slept my mind that one, and then they've dug

449
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,200
up and gone, oh, I forgot that we wrote this

450
00:24:11,279 --> 00:24:16,400
fucking half hour monolith. But the final presumably because they're

451
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,319
not coming back, they are actually sticking to it for now.

452
00:24:19,039 --> 00:24:22,279
But the final Cathedral song to see the light of

453
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,119
Day will be called Society's Pact with Satan, and it's

454
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,680
being released in October, as you know, a record as

455
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,200
a you know, one thirty minute song would likely to

456
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,319
be so if you are a big Cathedral fan, even

457
00:24:35,319 --> 00:24:37,240
when they are not coming back, we do have actually

458
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:40,279
some more music that will be emerging, and like I said,

459
00:24:40,319 --> 00:24:42,240
a half hour song from around the time in their

460
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,720
brilliant final record has me really intrigued as to what

461
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,559
that could be, because Cathedral could be really proggy at

462
00:24:49,599 --> 00:24:52,160
times as well as being you know, really heavy and

463
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,680
doom and miserable. So it could be this could be

464
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,119
like super funeralistic, or it could be wow, we've got

465
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,200
all the flutes out again and you know, gone kind

466
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,759
of English genesis. Yes, prog crazy, and I imagine it.

467
00:25:04,759 --> 00:25:06,279
You know, it could be a combination of those things.

468
00:25:06,319 --> 00:25:09,720
But yeah, really excited to hear a thirty minute long

469
00:25:09,759 --> 00:25:13,279
lost Cathedral song coming out. You may have seen Turnstiles

470
00:25:13,319 --> 00:25:17,640
tiny desk concerts the longgoing quite a big thing in

471
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:23,240
sort of American indie music. New criticism publication circles the

472
00:25:23,279 --> 00:25:26,160
tiny desk concert where they get all sorts of like

473
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,400
really big artists a lot of the time. Whatever I

474
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,000
saw do Chi do one recently that kind of stuff Turnstyle.

475
00:25:32,519 --> 00:25:34,599
I don't know if the first hardcore band to do it,

476
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,400
but I think they have now set the record of

477
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,839
having the first stage dive a tiny desk concert because

478
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,079
it's a kind of stripped back semi acoustic type thing

479
00:25:43,599 --> 00:25:46,599
and It's really fun seeing Turnstile with saxophonist and a

480
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,960
trumpet player doing you know, songs like you know, Dreaming

481
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,519
and I Care and stuff like that from the new

482
00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:54,480
record and having those like you know, fun like bouncy

483
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,960
sax parts and stuff going through it. But a sort

484
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,079
of semi we say, sort of clean version of Birds,

485
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:06,119
but still with Brendan jumping on people's heads at the top.

486
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,200
It's a lot of fun. That's been going around the

487
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,720
internet a bit this week, and I cannot believe I'm

488
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,039
here doing this again considering the last few weeks. But

489
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:20,440
I have another Bittuary part to read out because just

490
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,599
again another one of these after the lights of of

491
00:26:23,599 --> 00:26:26,240
course Ossie and Brent Hines and so on, this one.

492
00:26:26,759 --> 00:26:28,759
If you're from that you know, Brent Hines school of

493
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,759
music fan, I think this one will also hit somewhat hard. Unfortunately,

494
00:26:32,799 --> 00:26:35,839
really sad news that Alan Blickel, who is the founding

495
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:40,359
drummer for Baroness, has died this week at forty two,

496
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:46,480
so again no no age, but Baroness's run that he

497
00:26:46,599 --> 00:26:50,079
was on, so he was Baroness's drummer up until essentially

498
00:26:50,079 --> 00:26:52,519
they had that bus crash that you know, kind of

499
00:26:52,519 --> 00:26:55,519
really sidelined the band for a while and hit them

500
00:26:55,519 --> 00:26:57,680
really hard obviously, and then they kind of rebuilt the

501
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,519
lineup after that. But the material to that point that

502
00:27:00,559 --> 00:27:02,319
Alan Blicker was a part of, So he played on

503
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,039
the Red album, on Blue record, and on the phenomenal

504
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,039
you know double album Yellow and Green as well, and

505
00:27:09,799 --> 00:27:13,839
Baroness's you know, early material. Maybe again it's almost like

506
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:15,839
a bit like a massid on thing of kind of

507
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,920
the underground and maybe what the you know, newer fans

508
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,680
know them for whatever, But like Baroness's early material like

509
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,839
Red and Blue is really seminal to like that scene

510
00:27:24,839 --> 00:27:29,400
like that, those are properly beloved albums in the way

511
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,839
that I'm sure many people here listening love the likes

512
00:27:31,839 --> 00:27:36,440
of Purple, So Alan Bloke was part of those really

513
00:27:36,599 --> 00:27:39,240
cannot be understated. And again I was getting into Baroness

514
00:27:39,319 --> 00:27:42,160
kind of around the period between sort of Blue and

515
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,720
then Yellow and Green and Yellow and Green I love

516
00:27:44,839 --> 00:27:48,000
so much, and Alan Block again as like a teenager

517
00:27:48,039 --> 00:27:49,519
who was playing drums at the time I was getting

518
00:27:49,519 --> 00:27:51,839
into those records. Alan blickt was like energy behind the

519
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,599
kit always really stood out to me, like the beats

520
00:27:54,839 --> 00:27:57,200
that are across Yellow and Green and then the really

521
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,599
thunderous you know sludge stuff that's happening on that early

522
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,480
you know material he was, he was fantastic, Like he

523
00:28:02,519 --> 00:28:05,240
really stood out and he put his personality on that

524
00:28:05,319 --> 00:28:07,680
band and it was really nice that Again, even though

525
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,160
then he parted ways with the band after the bus crash,

526
00:28:11,319 --> 00:28:14,079
they just seem to always, you know, be kind of

527
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:18,160
nice words in that camp and you know, never any

528
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,559
sense of severing you know, friendships or kind of respect

529
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,920
or connections or anything like that that they'd had. And again,

530
00:28:25,039 --> 00:28:27,920
you know, for that reason, the Baroness camp, you know,

531
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:32,319
breaking this news is really really sad. So yeah, go

532
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,359
and spin red, Blue, Yellow and Green at some point

533
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,359
because his work on that is really fantastic. So so

534
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,480
rest in peace to Alan blikel moving on in this

535
00:28:42,519 --> 00:28:46,839
little silo Hyperblast, I am doing. I will mention that

536
00:28:47,039 --> 00:28:49,680
over on the Patreon this week. Like I said, we

537
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,880
are trying to gather everybody into the right place. But

538
00:28:52,519 --> 00:28:55,519
in the meantime before we do our next deep dive

539
00:28:55,839 --> 00:28:58,480
special over there for all the lovely patron supporters who

540
00:28:58,519 --> 00:29:01,480
keep us going this weekend and Sam and I are

541
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,279
going to be sitting down to do a T and

542
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,319
M does horror. We are going to be doing that

543
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,519
on Weapons, which has been the talk of the town

544
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,640
in the horror world for the past month or so.

545
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,200
A really highly successful I think a lot of people

546
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,440
will have seen it, highly acclaimed, really really positive response

547
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,799
from audiences. It's so much fun, it's so weird. It's

548
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,960
very creepy, but also an incredible amount actually to get

549
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,920
into kind of under the surface and in very enigmatic

550
00:29:30,039 --> 00:29:32,559
has inspired conversation even about the kind of I guess

551
00:29:32,599 --> 00:29:34,519
the pros and cons or the merits, or how much

552
00:29:34,559 --> 00:29:37,359
there even is of what is there under the surface

553
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,839
in Weapons. It's one of again the more mysterious kind

554
00:29:40,839 --> 00:29:42,519
of what can we really draw out of this movie

555
00:29:42,559 --> 00:29:45,240
is I think we've done on there of late, so

556
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:46,799
I'm looking forward to that. We will be doing that

557
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,960
along with the new Conjuring movie that came out more

558
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:54,119
recently about a week or so ago, but has smashed records.

559
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:55,839
I think you're probably even more likely to see this one,

560
00:29:55,839 --> 00:29:59,000
I suppose, because apparently it's like the biggest horror opening

561
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:03,039
weekend of all time or something insane deranged. But you know,

562
00:30:03,079 --> 00:30:04,880
we've covered the other country movies in the past, and

563
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,079
this is meant to be the final ones, so we'll

564
00:30:07,079 --> 00:30:09,200
come in and you know, top it off with that.

565
00:30:09,359 --> 00:30:11,359
So at the weekend, that is what me and Sam

566
00:30:11,359 --> 00:30:14,079
are going to be doing. Weapons and the Conduring four

567
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,160
on Tier and and Do's Horror, and then we will

568
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,519
be looking to again gather the troops and make sure

569
00:30:20,519 --> 00:30:22,880
we've got something coming up cooking in the pipeline with

570
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,440
the specials over on the Patreon, So if you want

571
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,359
to get involved with that, you want to hear stuff

572
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,680
like our trial of new metal and hair metal and

573
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,519
metal core we did. If you're seeing Poison the Well

574
00:30:33,559 --> 00:30:35,880
this week and you want to refresh yourself on how

575
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,640
sick they are, we have our band special from earlier

576
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,880
in the year on Poison the Well there along with

577
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,559
the myriad of band specials that we've done over the years.

578
00:30:43,599 --> 00:30:46,160
So Patreon that comm slash. That's done, mel if you

579
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,960
want to support, let's finish us off with releases for

580
00:30:50,319 --> 00:30:53,319
the twelfth of September this week. The big one I

581
00:30:53,319 --> 00:30:55,480
guess that we'll be getting the most discussion amongst you

582
00:30:55,519 --> 00:30:59,400
lot is the new lawna show record called I Feel

583
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,400
the Ever Black Festering within Me Lorna Shaw, as we've

584
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,880
discussed recently officially going to be an arena band in

585
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,279
the UK soon. So is this an arena deathcore record?

586
00:31:09,359 --> 00:31:12,319
Let's listen and figure it out. Then we've got Between

587
00:31:12,359 --> 00:31:15,200
the Buried and Me returning with the Blue Nowhere. I

588
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,680
think this is their first album since Colored Tube, obviously

589
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,759
a new kind of project here. So new Between the

590
00:31:20,799 --> 00:31:24,400
Burier and Me is out now Spinal Tap, I guess

591
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,240
you know they have an album along with the release

592
00:31:27,279 --> 00:31:28,960
of their new movie. So the album is called The

593
00:31:29,039 --> 00:31:32,839
End Continues. Isn't this mad that there's a Spinal Tap

594
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:37,119
two out? But I have heard so little, Like I

595
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:38,960
think I've seen like one trailer for it when I've

596
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,039
been at the movies, but just in conversation, like you'd

597
00:31:41,039 --> 00:31:44,160
think that, you know, a second Spinal Tap movie, the

598
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:48,039
probably the most iconic, certainly obviously rock themed comedy of

599
00:31:48,079 --> 00:31:50,319
all time, after like over forty years. I think it

600
00:31:50,359 --> 00:31:52,920
is that a second one just squeaking out. You'd think

601
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,559
there'd be more kind of Ferrara around it, but there

602
00:31:55,559 --> 00:31:57,279
it is. There is a new album along with the movie.

603
00:31:57,319 --> 00:31:59,000
Of course, maybe I'll go see the movie and see

604
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,039
what if it's up to it, but the album's there.

605
00:32:01,559 --> 00:32:04,839
The post hardcore band Silverstein have got Pink Moon. I

606
00:32:04,839 --> 00:32:07,200
think I remember from a previous hyper Blast they had

607
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,039
some kind of like you know, two part album series

608
00:32:10,079 --> 00:32:12,279
going on, and this is the second part of that.

609
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,200
Also returning from a similar era, Icee Stars are back,

610
00:32:16,279 --> 00:32:20,759
the new and dependent on your perspective, perhaps improved version

611
00:32:20,759 --> 00:32:23,440
of Icy Stars who have played at places like Slamdunk recently.

612
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,000
They have got their album called The Wheel and from

613
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,119
that era, the Rasmus going back in time now for

614
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,119
more and more nonsense. The Rasmus are back with an

615
00:32:32,119 --> 00:32:35,519
album called weird O that sounds highly appealing an am

616
00:32:35,599 --> 00:32:38,880
that I am more keen to see back The Chameleons,

617
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,240
a very good, you know, kind of underrated English post

618
00:32:42,319 --> 00:32:46,119
punk band from again the classic era of British post punk.

619
00:32:46,119 --> 00:32:48,119
I suppose a big influence on a lot of the

620
00:32:48,119 --> 00:32:50,799
bands that I've brought through that are you know, playing

621
00:32:50,839 --> 00:32:53,200
in that world today. They've got an album and it's

622
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,400
their first in over twenty years or something like that.

623
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,440
So Arctic Moon by the Chameleons are we going to

624
00:32:57,519 --> 00:32:59,920
check out? I think this dropped kind of midweek, but

625
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,480
horror with the Nines of course, the you know kind

626
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:06,240
of hardcore slash hip hop crossover band. They released an

627
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,279
album called Tomorrow We Escape and that as some guest

628
00:33:08,279 --> 00:33:10,720
spots from the likes of Greg Pachato and Chelsea Wolf

629
00:33:11,079 --> 00:33:15,400
on it not Enough Space. This is some quite you

630
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,440
know on the more scathing end from the li bit

631
00:33:18,519 --> 00:33:21,480
I checked out of you know, contemporary metal court. I

632
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,640
suppose they have got an album called Weaponize Your Rage.

633
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,759
Then we have on Pure Noise Records, there's Spiked House

634
00:33:27,799 --> 00:33:29,640
with Desertion. This is one of the bands I mentioned

635
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,880
earlier who are opening on that Military Gun tour. Then

636
00:33:33,039 --> 00:33:37,000
there is Maruja or Maruya, perhaps Pain to Power. This

637
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:42,480
is some kind of experimental, you know, post punk noise rock,

638
00:33:42,839 --> 00:33:44,799
but very kind of like widescreen. There's a lot of

639
00:33:44,839 --> 00:33:47,759
jazz influences and stuff like that, so kind of you know,

640
00:33:48,319 --> 00:33:51,240
experimental rock. I guess I'll just call it. I think

641
00:33:51,279 --> 00:33:54,720
that's a debut record there. The German black metal band

642
00:33:54,759 --> 00:33:57,440
who I have praised heavily in the past, deveg Eina Freicheit,

643
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,720
are back with their first album about four years called

644
00:34:00,799 --> 00:34:03,759
innern Year of the Goat, and with an album called

645
00:34:03,799 --> 00:34:07,359
Alukada They are a kind of like seventies occult style

646
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,840
retro rock band. If you're a fan of bands that

647
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:11,880
I've mentioned in the past, like The Devil's Blood and

648
00:34:12,039 --> 00:34:14,559
Jess and the Ancient Ones Year Ago are Worth Ago.

649
00:34:14,599 --> 00:34:16,559
So there's a new album from them, and then it's

650
00:34:16,599 --> 00:34:19,119
quite busy, but again from the kind of noise rock

651
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,880
and somewhat lesson dey sludge worlds as well. So Crippling

652
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,119
Alcoholism a band who have gained you know a little

653
00:34:26,119 --> 00:34:28,760
bit of attraction of people that's a name, but they've

654
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:29,840
you know, kind of got a bit of a buzz

655
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,840
recently playing Damnation places like that. They've gone an album

656
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,199
out called cam Girl, again full on noise rock. There's

657
00:34:36,199 --> 00:34:38,800
aland called Intercourse with an album called How I Fell

658
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,360
in Love with the Void. In the against sludge doom world,

659
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:46,079
there is the consistent band Slamatics with an album called

660
00:34:46,079 --> 00:34:50,480
Atomic Cult. Joe Quail, the sort of experimental cellist who

661
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,480
appears on a lot of kind of UK experimental heavy

662
00:34:53,519 --> 00:34:56,320
bills and collabs and stuff like that. Her new solo

663
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,920
album Not Tan is out on Pelagic Records, so it's

664
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,320
you know, pelagic post metal stuff. Barons have an album

665
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,000
called Corpse Lights, and a couple of releases for the

666
00:35:06,079 --> 00:35:08,440
death metal fans. This is more sort of an old

667
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,360
school death metal thing. A band called heru Vim from

668
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:15,039
Ukraine with a record called Mercator or Mercator, and then

669
00:35:15,119 --> 00:35:18,800
EP finally from a band called Cesarean, which is a

670
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,559
name that I cannot believe was not taken already. But

671
00:35:21,599 --> 00:35:24,239
that EP is called Wretched Decrepitude, and as you can

672
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,719
probably imagine from their name and certainly the album cover,

673
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,840
this is very gory. You know, it's gore death metal,

674
00:35:30,159 --> 00:35:31,960
but it sounds pretty decent if you're into that thing.

675
00:35:32,079 --> 00:35:35,000
So those are your releases for the twelfth. Cheers everybody

676
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,360
for listening. We will be back next week again. I'm

677
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,400
not entirely sure what we will be doing next week,

678
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,599
but I will make sure we have some people around

679
00:35:41,599 --> 00:35:46,519
and we've got something. So cheers everybody, and yeah, enjoy

680
00:35:46,559 --> 00:35:47,360
your week. Bye bye,
