In this episode I got to have a chat with booker, drummer and founding member of one of the UKs most pioneering bands Cryptic Shift. We catch up on the events that lead to them signing with Metal Blade Records, how the band has developed over the years and what lies ahead. We also discuss our mutual love of thrash of course!

There is a thorough examination of all the latest news in metal including a sombre story from the world of Death Metal, praise for Tony Harnell, praise for Ronnie Dio, a heads up for incoming Rammstein, best wishes for Di'Anno, finally lifestyle, tax and wellbeing advice for Ozzy.

In this episode I get to sit down with previous guest of The Motorcast the legend that is Harley Flanagan. In this conversation we had a chance to really go deep on his and the bands early years, what shaped their sound and a scene that shaped them as people. This is about as honest as it gets. 

 

There is also the usual/unusual look at metal news, a load of ego, an apology for Dave Mustaine, shit for Blabbermouth, sympathy for Lifeson and the first ever Taking Bollocks Coach Trip threatens to become a thing.

It's been a whole year since Knox and I had a chance to chat. When we did it was pretty epic and we ended up going well over time and saying we must do it again soon. Well when you're in a band, a year is kind of soon and here we are again. We get to discuss how the album has been received, how the new album is coming along and what exactly they got up to on the road. This was an all encompassing fun chat.

 

There is also the usual review of a few of the stories of the week and a review of a story a little closer to home.

 

This Is Beartooth Bollocks.

It's time for a catch up with the Mr Help You Out On Guitar of metal, Phil Demmel. This chat finds Phil on the Overkill tour bus as he helps fill in for them but don't be fooled, this is all about Vio-Lence and their return to releasing new stuff. In this case the EP Let The World Burn. We talk all about how the songs came together, how they made the progression from shitty live band to the super tight set up they are now and what the future holds for Phil as well as Vio-Lence.

There is also a review of some of the major and not so major news stories, a melting brain, and the word documentary gets used a lot for no reason.

In this episode I go a little left of centre from the usual band member or producer interview  and chat to THE Metal Mashup Master Bill McClintok. We talk about his early years in bands, learning and teaching guitar and his loathing of playing live. Most importantly he explains what makes a great mashup and what he looks for.  

 

As always I review the metal news but with a little bit of a twist this month and finally finish off with a tribute to one of my heroes.  

 

This Is Marcelo Bielsa Bollocks.

In this episode I get chance to chat with someone I feel like I've known for ages. Chris and I have friends in common but this is the first time we've l talked and what an epic conversation we had! The whole Machine Head thing is covered, Attitude Adjustment past and upcoming rereleases and his new/old project, the legendary Boneless Ones. We even managed to squeeze in some drum chat.

On top of that there is the worst intro to one of these podcasts ever. So that is and isn't worth listening to.
