  • Melys, band

    Andrea Parker and Paul Adams of indie legends MELYS give us the five tracks they will meet in Hell!


    Andrea and Paul chatted about making music as a couple, walking away from fame after their song Chinese Whispers won John Peel's Festive Fifty listener vote, and gathering moss. They also put the boot in to Hellish perennials Oasis.


    We're putting this out to celebrate the release of Melys's comeback single, Santa Cruz. It's a solid gold banger and it came out yesterday (Friday 29th November if you're reading this on the day it goes out.) You'll hear a little clip in the episode, which is nowhere near enough of its pop splendour; so after you've heard the interview, head over to wherever you get your music and check it out!


    This is the last episode of season one of Hellish. We'll be back with new damned souls in February 2025. However, that does not mean we're done with the old damned souls, or that we're completely done with 2024. Check back December 1st for another little surprise...


    Head to https://www.patreon.com/hellishpod to access episodes early and ad free, where you will find out which artists our guests will meet in Hell. You'll also get our two pilot episodes, and a bunch of other stuff depending which tier you pick - including the chance to come and work for Hell's H.R. department! If you just want to be nice/bribe your way out of Hell then you can also tip us over at https://www.ko-fi.com/hellishpod

  • Clare Pollard, writer

    Top poet and novelist CLARE POLLARD gives us chapter and verse of the five tracks she will meet in Hell!


    Clare is an accomplished novelist, editor and critic, as well as one of the UK's greatest living poets. (This does not stop Daniel from trying to argue in favour of some very ropey lyrics). She has published five collections of poetry, a biography-memoir-critical look at children's books, and this year alone has published two novels.

  • Mark Bowles, writer

    Writer MARK BOWLES gives us all his precious Infernal Playlist tracks...


    Mark is the author of the Goldsmiths Prize nominated novel All My Precious Madness, which was lauded by critics. It's an incredibly funny book - The Guardian compared it to American comedian Bill Hicks - and Mark did not disappoint with a full-on assault on the 1980s in this episode. He talked us through the process of writing the book, welcomed news that an 1980s double act now hate each other, and of course gave us the five tracks he will meet in Hell.

    You can order All My Precious Madness direct from Galley Beggar (rather than from somewhere else: you'd be helping a small independent press to thrive). https://www.galleybeggar.co.uk/paperback-shop/all-my-precious-madness
