The BrokenFoundation Podcast

We've been stoked to finally share that the first bands for Neckfest 2023 will be BURNER (Death Metal/Hardcore) and LURE IN (Chaotic Hardcore/Hyper Pop) and this package will also be going around Scotland for a four date long stretch in Scotland.  This week we have not one, but TWO guests, Harry Nott, singer in Burner and Cam Wilson, singer in Lure In both join the show to talk about their respective bands and what they're looking forward to about coming to Scotland!

So excited to finally be able to share this tour and the first bands for Neckfest, as this has been in the works for a long time now.  Enjoy the show!  Next week we'll be back to regularly scheduled programming!

This week we have frontman from Glasgow based Sludge/Death dealers JOROGUMO, Grant Gardiner.  We speak on the bands early days and their debut EP, Rot, which was released over the forgotten deadlands of Covid-19, what the band have next, why Queen are the ultimate inspiration for the band and so much more.  We also chat about Grant's experiences managing The 13th Note in Glasgow and some of the faux pas that are committed on a daily basis by incoming bands and promoters.

We then finish up with a chat about Sci Fi and really hone in on why Star Wars fans are the worst.

Thanks for all the listens and shares folks - really appreciate it!

This week on the podcast, we hear from the BrokenFoundation on their favourite releases of the past year, favourite gigs, things that were let downs and some of the highlights for the year.  We then have a look forward to 2023 with some exciting news!

Throughout the episode we also have some messages from bands out there who we think are sick - so please have a listen and check out everything we cover this week.  Thanks for all the support so far in 2022 - here's to 2023 and a whole nuther year of madness.

This week on the show we have Nottingham based Hardcore/Beatdown Promoter Callum Standen, the man behind Mercia Promotions and formerly Nottingham Unearthed.  We talk his start in heavy music, how he got into Beatdown and Hardcore specifically and have a good dive into what's making the East Midlands Harcore scene really pop off at the moment.

We chat about the finer points of getting your head kicked in, gaming (and why the Witcher is so good) and then we finish up with Callum's big passion outside of music, world history!

Matt Smith from Those Once Loyal and Human Deceit (and no doubt the UK Hardcore facebook group!) joins me this week to talk about the bands he's in, why he loves The Offspring so much, not remembering an entire Gorilla Biscuits gig and we break down the East Midlands Hardcore scene.  We also chat Outbreak and who Matt would like to see pop up on the bill!

Oh and Hatebreed.  Jeez Matt really likes Hatebreed.

Cameron Simpson from Dead Sapien joins the show this week.  We talk his formative years hating his music teacher, writing music over covid, nearly losing his shit (literally) at a Slipknot show and why it's important to be nice and not a total creep at gigs.
