After a lengthy and detailed discussion over on my instagram about Spotify I thought I'd clear up some of the confusion and misunderstandings involved in their business model and how it is to interact with that as a musician and artist. What unwrapped is all about, how it demands our attention and what we can do to support artists moving forwards

Todays podcast asks the question when did it become such a chore to be a fan of music? do you go to gigs and secretly wait for them to be over, feel like you haven't given that new album by your so called fave band enough time, and before you know it you have a stack of ignored vinyl staring at you? do you feel overwhelmed by the amount of new releases, so much so that being informed feels like doing the death scroll admin? find out why ....consume curate content, the 3 C's

How are some metal bands enjoying greater success than ever near the end of their careers? Kreator, Anthrax and Testament being a case in point, arguably past their creative peak, their peak of physical sales and out the other side of the changing winds of the music industry some bands are posting bigger numbers than ever out there on the road, how come? clever curation of their legacy? a huge stage show? being clever about digital singles.....? find out

90s Megadeth vs 90s Maiden? bald or not bald? why do we prefer one politicians over another? people who are really obsessed with politics forget most people don't care. Much delayed but rather vague thoughts on the US election...but very vague, but do you as a listener have the right to know my opinion, does anyone need my opinion and how did podcasts somehow end up being not only arguably the deciding factor in this election but such an important element of modern society, what does that say about us and the relationships we have with podcasters, whose voice we sometimes hear more than friends and family. Is it healthy and do they have too much power?

I don't solve the Middle East in this episode, or drone on about the American election or really answer any of life's big issues, that is unless you are a vintage merch collector, trader or simple plain old Heavy Metal fan! So strap yourself in for some proper obsessive compulsive nerdling true metal behaviour...... how come it's all got so goddamn expensive? what kind of stitching do you look for to make sure it's an OG, and some stories about my long lost Bathory shirt....is vintage merch collecting just a microcosm of real life? find out.....

Today's post red wine podcast is about criticism and how to deal with it, is tuning out of the comments cheating? the pressure on bands to have instagram ready stage shows and do they over shadow the music? and a read through of an AI occult doom metal bands substack manifesto.....

Todays podcast is a chat with Dan from both Wolcensmen and Solstice, which may seem controversial to some, but very normal and standard to others, and while we don't agree on everything the principle behind Agitators Anonymous is that of freedom of speech, we cover the difficulties of stepping into someone else's musical shoes and singing damn hard songs! scepticism, rationality, being played by our algorithm, why the powers that be seek to divide and conquer us but also why we should all attempt in a polarised world to find common ground rather than divisions....
there are some contentious topics here and there but everything should be on the table to discuss!

We hear the word libertarian and the phrase classical liberal a lot these days but where does it come from? what do libertarians believe and maybe you are one and don't know it? along with some other random chat, including the shelving of Ireland's Orwellian hate speech laws and why my mother thinks Blindboy is a much better podcaster....fair enough like, boi.....

On this weeks podcast I discuss the recent case of Michael Smith, a prompter, music generator who was arrested for gaming Spotify's system, generating 100 000s of songs with AI, uploading them and then getting bots to fire up his numbers, getting caught after trying to get a 10$ million payout! and how the system is more or less open to complete manipulation....that, the new Danzig single and how for most bands now its about consolidation and not 'growth'

Lately I've been getting a lot of emails and messages from new bands and musicians asking how can they make the next step! first mistake asking a grumpy old dude like me right? well, how do you play the game? is there any point and what if your chosen style has no underground, you have to go big or go home right?

In this episode I discuss why Boomers are starting to only now notice there are no new rock bands anymore....and what part they played in that, how lad culture that was once celebrated in the 90s was redefined as toxic masculinity for the modern age and how the Oasis reunion has sparked the predictable responses from areas of the press....among loads of other nonsense

Simple one this week, with another festival season under my belt I wonder how many more times this happens, the law of diminishing returns! being nearer the end than the beginning, going up against huge bands with your time slot, how the cost of living crisis is affecting merch sales, transient punters, and the feeling that the whole scene is building up a big head of steam once again.....can the centre hold or are we headed for a lot of cancellations over the next 12 months....or am I just a pessimistic chump? or all of the above

Random chat about old school death metal, growing older, have our bands plateau'd and will Agalloch ever make any new music!

This may be an unusual move but this is an entire album of
VERMINOUS SERPENT 'The Malign Covenant' which I played bass/vocals on along with JD on guitars (Slidhr) and MB (Malthusian) on drums
it came out maybe a year ago on Amor Fati Records! Germany
chances are maybe you haven't heard it! black/death metal done the old school way!
you can order the album on vinyl or cd at this link

or follow the band over on Spotify
