Grown men chuckling at the word 'windy', a lady with a garden in her face, Sue Pollard getting 'earthy', Croatian parking tickets, Thom Yorke busting some funky moves and another wave of ArcTangent band announcements.....this episode has it all!!

Unbelievably for this time of year, there's still some really fantastic releases crossing our paths and we've got another nine for you to dive into this week!!

There's a full run-down of the Damnation shenanigans, thoughts on the Hellfest lineup, James Hetfield in an inflatable kangaroo costume, a mouthful of marbles....and (for some unknown reason) the chance to own some of Bryn's hair.

Bryn has unfortunately contracted the dreaded lurgy, but stubbornness prevails and (despite all the mucus) there's discussions about the upcoming Bloodstock announcement, Iggy's saggy torso, Jaff's views on American country music......and a complete inability to remember names for fairly standard household items.

It's been a bit quieter on the release front this week, but there's still some gems out there for you to wrap your ears around!!

As usual the conversation bounces around, covering topics such as Roger Waters' big opinionated mouth, the return of Radiohead, and the hopeful possibility of a Shane Embury set at a certain Bristol festival.....

Musically, it's been one of the best weeks of the year!! We bring you a death metal album from Ireland, a lute album from Norway, an experimental split from Australia, multiple black metal albums....even Bryan Adams gets a spot!! All this and loads more.....It's one hell of an episode!!

There's predictions about Bloodstocks extra headliner, a tribute to the brilliant Brent Hinds, some (not so) unusual activity in the Cradle Of Filth camp...and a healthy serving of the usual nonsense!

This week's choice of releases is not for the faint of heart! There's an incredible blackened post-metal album, a soul-wrenching and drone-filled blackened-death record and plenty more to keep your ears and minds occupied! These are six releases that are definitely best listened to with wine....

What bands played the best sets?

Who were the noisy people by the VIP bar?

Why are Inter Arma so smelly?

Who made Bryn cry?

All these questions (and more) will be answered, as the guys take you on a whirlwind tour of one of the best UK festivals!

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week, there's a slightly haphazard trip to Italy, where Bryn and Jaff pop into the Piccini winemakers and try one of their blends. Bonus points go to the label which bears more than a passing resemblance to the Pothamus album from earlier this year!!

Having just returned from a suitably debaucherous weekend at Bloodstock, Jaff soldiers through and provides a comprehensive run-down of the festival highlights. Bryn takes up the responsibility of reviewing two fantastic debut records that were released last week, and they both get rather excited about heading to ArcTangent this week!!

This Weeks Releases

Pustulant Flesh - Gurgling Pustulence ()

Circling Over - Amends ()

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's also (finally) festival season and there's Bloodstock predictions, a thorough dressing down of the lacklustre Wacken 2026 announcement, Bryn's top festival tip....as well as the usual truckload of verbal meandering that you've come to expect.

Another six albums have been plucked from the tree of weekly music releases, and it's a hell of a mix...where else can you slide effortlessly from unhinged Australian slam into sleaze-laden LA grunge and then end up in the comforting arms of some traditional Death Metal.....

After their jolly jaunt through the vineyards of Rioja, they now find themselves sipping Malbec in the wilderness of Argentina...and bloody good it is too!

There's a tribute to the greatness of Ozzy, Bryn airs his frustrations with festival lineup announcements, and rather a lot of historical fact-finding about the Etruscan civilisation. The guys are also excited to announce that they have officially launched a collaboration with the fantastic caffeine-wizards at Black Coffee Worship....but you'll have to listen to the episode to get yourself a sneaky discount on their products!!

There's been a ludicrously high calibre of musical releases over the past two weeks....some definite contenders for Album Of The Year for you to listen to!!

Unless you've had your head in the toilet over the past week then you'll be aware that Black Sabbath had a bit of a 'Jamboree' in Birmingham over the weekend. Jaff managed to get along to it in person, Bryn watched the livestream......and they couldn't resist sharing their thoughts with you! From Nuno Bettencourt's unbelievable reliability, Jake E Lee's disappearing act, Metallica's absolute monster of a set, an almost total lack of beer and the incredible ending of one of the most important bands in history....there's a lot to talk about!

They still find the time to discuss some of the brilliant releases from the past week, and there were some absolute belters for you to listen to!!
