Episode 133: Luke Alexander - Tempashot

Support Podcast Patreon

In this episode I got to catch up with my old mate Luke from urban metal pioneers Tempashot. This was a fascinating conversation as Luke and I go all the way back to the very first days of the band which initially started out as a side project but quickly gained momentum, through to the imminent release of their debut album "Certified Dangerous".

As always there is a slapdash smash through the most stupid news stories in metal including house flipping, piss throwing and singers who should just fucking leave!

This Is Dan Lilker Bollocks.

In this episode I got to catch up with the thrash metal legend and Sodom founder Tom Angelripper. We talk new album Genisis XIX, new members, old members, touring and ultimately retirement and even death!

 

As always there is a discombobulated stumble through the news with criticism and praise heaped out in equal measure whilst a particular word comes in for some abuse.

Episode 130: Stan & Jay Xentrix

Support The Podcast Patreon

This episode is all about catching up with my old mates and we get straight down to discussing their new album Seven Words, how it came about, who did what and their touring plans involving Artillery, Whiplash & Vio-Lence.

 

As always I have a sprint through the news and pick out a few articles that catch my eye. There is news on Metallica but not the news Dave Mustaine was hoping for. There's news from a singer no one cares about and his one album of fame, news about who is going to be the new singer in a band no one cares about all rounded off for respect for some 80s bands and THE Death Metal Legend.

Support The Podcast Patreon

After bumping into Tom & Jack of Steel Mage at Bloodstock this summer and having a really good chat we decided to do exactly that again on the podcast. We go deep into what it is like for a young band trying to get noticed, getting gigs and of course how to fit work and education into the picture as well. 

 

There is, as usual, a run through various news stories including Shinedown climb down, The Sword falling on theirs and Chris Jericho communes with the dead.

Episode 128: Jesse & Jesus From Underlord

Support Podcast Patreon

In this episode I was able to catch up with Jesse & Jesus from Underlord on the eve of the release of their debut EP Groundbreaker. Jesse and Jesus are names you may remember as members of the Newstead band. Here they discuss the whirlwind that was their time in the band, how it all came together and how it ended. Now, all these years later, it's all come together for them again and we discuss what made them bring Underlord to life. 

 

In addition there is a rant through the news with the usual amount of praise and distain for everything from fans helping bands to fans hindering bands and Blackie Lawless as an old farmer from the deep south.
