I have an idea in my head for a podcast which is similar but id be so unconfident in actually doing it and making it sound even fractionally listenable that it puts me off. Plus i hate the sound of my own voice. It is slightly weird and abit hard to get past the whole hearing yourself and whatnot but I'm talking about something thst is my job and something I'm incredibly passionate about so it just comes naturally in the end. I hope you enjoy it If you listen....the next episode I'm releasing in the next couple of days is with my first guest a guy called jamal Lewis who's a drummer for a funk/soul/hip hop fusion band and ive known him since I was 13 when we were training at futureshock in Manchester together so we talked about that time too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Static X is one of the only one of the bigger bands of that late 90s/early 00s scene that i never got to see. Would have been great to see them with Wayne Static but it looks like they've pulled off this tribute thing pretty well. Static-X's first album is pretty special. I picked it up in cash converters and it lived in my stereo for a while. I wouldn't have minded being able to see them, but I drifted out of the kind of circle of friends that would have been up for doing that kind of thing. Edited September 28, 2019 by jazzygeofferz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got to see Static X once, would have been 2004ish at the Hammersmith Apollo supporting Korn. About an intense a set as I've ever seen. I've never been in a crowd that moved like that before or since. We started standing in the centre, ended up being swept along to both sides, the front, the back, it was like waves. The whole room was just moving constantly, with little pockets bouncing and moshing. They were tight as fuck too and with the amount of bottom end that just hurts your chest and back. Would loved to have seen them on these dates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted September 28, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted September 28, 2019 That's unfortunate. I didn't realise they'd already filmed S&M2. The set list looks pretty good. The Day That Never Comes and Halo On Fire could be incredible with an orchestra. I was half wondering whether (and hoping) they'd try and work some kind of orchestration into St Anger, but looks like it's not happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King Of Swing Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Adema is one band from back in the day that really stood out in their shitness. Wasn't the lead singer related to someone in another Nu-metal band? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't the lead singer related to someone in another Nu-metal band? yeh, i completely overlooked them, even though they probably would have been right up my street at the time. There was a bunch of nu-metal bands that sprung up and their most sellable point was that a member had a famous relative. Apartment 26, Deadsy, Adema etc. I went to the Static-X show the other night. I made the stupid mistake of hitting the San Miguel so by the time Static-X came on i was a bit zoned out (ive gotta quit drinking at gigs), enjoyed it though. The initial intrigue was there but once that wore off i guess it looked and sounded like classic Static-X. Pretty cool video screens and stuff too, it did make me realise how long its been since i actually listened to Wisonsin Death Trip though, some of the songs i probably hadnt heard in 15 years. I did hear once that you could take the musicians off stage at a Static-X show and it wouldnt make much of a difference considering the amount of tape they run, and thats the sort of feeling i got during the show. I need to go and have a proper listen back to their catalogue now. Band of the night for me outside of that was Dope, short and sweet but it was nice and loose, bit of onstage banter and some decent tuneage, enjoyed the fuck out of it. Wednesday 13 seemed way more serious music-wise than the last time i saw them, could have done without the costume changes but you couldnt fault the effort. Soil were just reliably average, still milking a single tune but they make a decent racket.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted September 28, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted September 28, 2019 If Adema the band with the 7 foot tall guitarist with blonde dreads that's the only thing I remember about them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merzbow Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 I've been re-listening to Velvet Cacoon/Clair Cassis a lot this past week or two, they won't be to everyones taste but they're certainly one of the more interesting black metal bands. They traded in the "evil" gimmicks for tall tales of eco-terrorism, big sexy diesel powered guitars, live shows fueled by ancient hallucinogens that made them puke purple shit and a bunch more trickery and thievery (although, said thievery may have been in conjunction with the other artists). Even without all the shenanigans Genevieve is a 10/10 bit of hazy, droney drugged out black metal. Oh, and I also found this Carly Rae x Deafheaven mashup demo album https://esorren.bandcamp.com/album/sunkisser-demo-work-in-progress  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daughters Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Just seen Deafheaven and they played Black Brick - wasn’t expecting that. The final transition is fantastically discombobulating; like two drummers merging into one mental octopus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordsfromlee Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Today I’ve been getting on the Lingua Ignota hype and listening to CALIGULA. Really enjoying, mainly I think due to it sounding exactly like the inside of my head the majority of the time.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
