In E 104 AA asks can touring survive? inspired by listening to the audio book of Henry Rollins 'Get in the van' for the first time, AA looks at the logistics of touring, how new costs are being absorbed by musicians and the crowd, what is because of the war? what is simply price gouging, what is price gouging? how does a tour get started, get booked and become structured. How will that change as we move ahead, what's the main difference between van touring and night-liner touring? some simply life hacks for both and will live music simply become a social luxury in the future?

Episode 103 is a chat with Mikko from SWALLOW THE SUN. Primordial are on tour with them and Rome in under two weeks so it seemed like a good idea to get together for a conversation. Mikko is Finnish, so as laconic, low energy, glass half empty and bleak as you can imagine! Check out their new album 'Moonflowers' on Century Media!! see you all on tour

The Echoes of Animism......

Episode 101 is a long form chat with multi instrumentalist KATI RAN, using a variety of historical folk instruments she is part of what we could call the new-folk scene that's been growing across the world over the last decade.

She's just worked on the soundtrack for the Netflix show VALHALLA, has released several of her own solo albums, worked with Gaahl, soundtracked games such as 'Vigor' and appeared with Myrkur, Folk Noir and worked with directors such as Nick Steinbuch and Trevor Morris!!

Aside from all that this is a great chat about culture, mythology, history and how it echoes down through the ages, the search for spirituality, how come this new folk scene got so god damn big so soon! is it part of some deeper existential question of longing in the West?, and how it perfectly ties into the world of gaming, and growing up as a larping nerd and how all of this ties into the modern visual world!!!

So AA is going twice a week for the time being, so Tuesday will be music industry chat, heavy metal, tour stories, and generally chat about bands, the rock and the roll....Friday will remain more about politics, social commentary, culture, history and all of the other! Let's see how long AA keeps this up for! This one is pretty simple, how is the current war economy, the crisis in Ukraine and price of petrol, gas and energy going to affect the music industry as a whole!

The news is that AA is going to be a twice weekly podcast, looks like a Tuesday episode will be more about music, the industry, metal and tour stories/info and the Friday will remain to the episode for cultural commentary, left of field takes on society, politics and history. This being the Friday episode this one is about the war in Ukraine, how huge sections of online society seem to have simply moved from one emergency to another and begun virtue signalling and shoehorning their own moral crusade into war....from experts on virology to experts on nuclear conflagration. Where did the pandemic go? and how is still being used to implement digital ID's and new forms of undemocratic authoritarianism. This one is a spicey meatball!!!

Part two of looking at the war in Ukraine, the Nuclear component. What was game theory and how did it apply to the cold war and what does it mean now, why this changes the nature of this conflict compared to all others in recent history. is Putin a rational actor? will Ukraine become the new Afghanistan? what did the West get wrong, why are the right alligning themselves with Putin and some of the left demanding war? why are some countries still persisting with pandemic restrictions and how do we deal with our own inertia regarding the state of emergency?
