The main man behind UK rockers InMe Dave and I have a chat about their long and varied career. From recording and partying in LA with the stars to having their record label go out of business just a year after releasing their debut album, to the resurgence they are currently going through. As always the rock news is examined in a little too much detail, legendary drummers leave, drummers are stolen and drummers move on close to home. This Is Hellfest Bollocks.

New Overkill drummer Jeramie takes time out of his busy schedule whilst on tour supporting King Diamond for a chat. We have quite a few friends in common so once we establish who they are we dive into Jeramie's varied career, be it as a drummer, drum tech or front of house engineer and where it's taken him so far. There is as always a run through the latest metal news with some long time regulars making appearances like Kiss & Megadeth and some more sombre stories too. This Is On The Road Bollocks.

Help Me Out If You Would Be So Kind
In this episode I am joined by a long lost friend I have never met before. The man behind two legendary bands from back in the day, Glen Cummings. If you are familiar with either or none it doesn't matter as this is one of those interviews that touches on just about everything from the NYC hardcore scene & tape trading but starts with me telling Glen a story about how our careers were inextricably linked and set us both on different paths. There is a ramble through the news which is creepy, weird, informative and frightening. This Is Murderous Bollocks. Video Interview Body Count Comfortably Numb Featuring David Gilmour
