Bator with a cover by The Damned starts things going this week before I talk

about clashing gigs; Brian James vs The UK Subs vs Kory Clarke which leads me

into Volbeat. Onto new music, as I seem to have a shed loads, firstly from The

Hip Priests and a track from their current 7”, then I talk about The Sick

Livers soon to be unleashed “Mid Liver Crisis” LP and late Summer tour with The

Disconnects who I play. A tour that is currently underway over on the Mainland

and I wish had strayed over here features Mother’s Children and The Mandates.

Mother’s Children I’d heard about but not The Mandates. A quick trip over to

their BandCamp site had by purchasing their debut album and “In The Back Of

Your Heart” quicker than you could sing “Oh Canada”. Obviously I share a track

with you. Next up is Swiss band The Lovers with a track off their new album “In

The Air”. I slow things down (not) with some new Slayer then talk about going

up to Ginger’s “Songs and Words” London gig, meeting Mikko Von Hertzen, Dante

Bonutto and Rich Jones and finding out the preliminary release date for the new

Michael Monroe album, which leads me nicely into The Compulsions who feature

Sami Yaffa. The Crunch, (part Sham 69/Lords of The New Church, part Diamond

Dogs, part Clash and part Cockney Rejects) have a new track aired from “Brand

New Brand” and I talk about not seeing them at The Borderline before Nicke

Andersson’s Imperial State Electric take centre stage. Los Pepes swiftly follow

as I realise that my Facebook notifications for them had been turn off before

former Vains of Jenna vocalist Lizzy DeVine introduces us to his new band The

Cruel Intensions. The Sonic Jewels have just released a new ep called “By The Light Of Woland’s Candle”, a track of

which I naturally play. Sick Boys Revue, who hail

from Italy sent me an e-mail with a track attached from their “Sick Tails”

album asking that if I liked it would I be so kind as to play it. Like it? Love

it. Hopefully you will to. A band that I thought had long since spilt up were

Finland’s Mean Idols. They haven’t and are supporting The Vibrators (in

Finland) on the 28th. To celebrate I dig out my “Suffer” 7” and play

it. At this point Wall Rock Radio listeners will hear Drugdealer Cheerleader as

their drummer Ringo sadly passed away on Wednesday before Robbie Johns come

crashing in with his Rock Lobster Show. For everybody else it’s The Mean Idols,

“Compare & Contrast” and in the dock are Guns ‘n’ Roses with Australian

Crawl prosecuting. Duff McKagan has just published a new book and ep to

coincide. The ep features Jerry Cantrell, Roy Mayorga and some guy called Izzy Stradlin’, the title of which I

air. It’s at this point everybody else gets to hear Drugdealer Cheerleader

before Korpiklaani and a sort of cover almost end the show, but that is left to

The Damned as tickets to the UK Première of their Documentary have been

secured.
