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?

This one is something I haven't done in a long time! fielding some questions from my Instagram!!

From misconceptions about being in a band to Ireland's lack of heavy metal history and only a few mentions of Trump......

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.....
