Episode: 149 Nige & Heather Of Chupacabra

Give Me Money!

Burn The Clowns Chupacabra is a great track. Myself Nige & Heather discuss all things Chupacabra and their debut EP. From it's inception and writing through lockdown to eventual recording, release and how Nige got involved with D.X. Ferris and the Talkin' Slayer Podcast. There is the usual run through the news in an more unusual way.

Episode 148: Kelly Shaefer Till The Dirt & Atheist EXCLUSIVE

Support Podcast Patreon

It's been two years since Kelly and I last had a chance to catch up and a lot has happened. Till The Dirt, is Kelly's "other" band and have just put out their groundbreakingly brilliant debut album but as you will hear nothing is that straight forward. This is a real in depth conversation about every aspect of being in a band. From huge highs to catastrophic lows. Kelly also reveals exclusively for the first time why he had to cancel the Atheist European tour with just a few days notice. 

There is also the usual bullshit news real made up of pointless drummers, needless Journey, pompous protest songs, moaning members, no fat bottomed girls and Dave Mustaine.

Episode 147: Ol Drake - Evile

Support Podcast Patreon

Ol is back and if you have ever heard of the four Yorkshiremen sketch? Well this is the thrash metal hour long equivalent! Not really BUT we do cover a huge amount of topics during this free-range conversational wander. Of course we cover the new album but we also get to song writing process, singing lessons, hyper focus, ADHD, moaners, the past, the present and the future.

There is a cursory review of the "news", some good, some bad, some devastating and some about a band that has a badger in it.

This Is Badger Bollocks.

It's that time again when I share what I think of what I have been watching since the last episode came out. As always I get through as many as possible in an effort to maybe help you decide what to watch one night. This episode contains reviews of 17 movies and 8 TV Series.

Episode 146: Kev & Matt From The Fierce & The Dead

Support Podcast Patreon

Everything is different as it's an album release episode! News From The Invisible World came out on July 28th and I got to chat all about it with Matt & Kev. We end up discussing a lot more besides as this is a band with a LONG and somewhat complex past hence this is their first album for a very long time and first with vocals! There is lots to talk about.

There is a sort of review of the metal news but it's more an assault on the lack of real news than anything.

This Is Monopoly Bollocks.

Support Podcast Patreon

In this episode I get to catch up with all around Metal Label Legend Julie Weir. Not only is Julie responsible for signing the three biggest UK metal bands of the last 30 years but she also now runs the Sony Music imprint Music For Nations. In a free flowing chat we get to cover everything from how the business has evolved and what young bands need to do now through to comparing 80's/90's gig notes and experiences.

There is the usual ransacking of recent "news" stories, some surprising candour and an opportunity to stream a movie on Thunderflix.

Episode 144: Talkin’ Slayer With D.X. Ferris.

Support Podcast Patreon

The most self explanatory episode title I think I've ever had, it's time for the return of everyone's favourite Slayer author to the podcast DX Ferris! Yes we cover the hell out of Slayer and the whole Talkin' Slayer Podcast concept, delivery and launch.

As well as a bunch of other stuff that has nothing to do with Slayer more life in general. There is also a reduced but no less meaningful run through some of the weeks biggest stories in Metal. Stories that frankly are not stories and no one needs to hear about.
