get things going this week with a Demolition 23 sounding Def Leppard
following in their wake. Then my own mix of “AntiPope” by The
Damned takes the world by storm. We then get back onto new music from
Psychopunch, which almost didn’t happen, and The Carburetors, two
bands that seem to be going hand in hand at the moment. A band that I
had to miss off Episode 469 due to time constraints was The Dogbeats
from Benidorm. Obviously they are included on this week’s show to
make amends. More new music with the b-side to Hard Action’s “Hands
Dripping Red” 7” which is due out on Bootleg Booze Records at the
end of February. The Hip Priest/Billy Hopeless split 7” has finally
landed on Doormats around the World but as I’ve already played both
tracks in question I play The Hip Priests new track “For Life Till
Deth” instead. In a Wildhearts Six Degrees of Separation I play new
tracks from The Main Grains, that features Danny McCormack and The
Drama Club Rejects that features Stidi. Both cracking songs! Scumbag
Millionaire from Gothenburg
are up next with some “Enraged
and fast moving, cooking with gas and grooving Punk Rock” with the
return of Royal Republic to The Paranoid Squirrel Rock Show following
on. Sham 69 have just released a brand new album called “It’ll
End In Tears”. This is the Ian Whitewood line up. Deadbeat London,
who feature Rich Rags on guitar from The Role Models, debut single
gets an airing. I love finding new bands and new music with The
Whipshades from Fredrikstad, Norway, being the latest band to fall
into that category. It goes without saying I play track by them which
comes from their latest release “Fast, Loud and Primitive”. This
week’s show is wrapped up with part of an interview with Richard
Strange that I attended on the 27th
that was
hosted by Peter Cook from The Academy of Rock. Richard “Kid”
Strange was in The Doctors of Madness that for a few gigs in 1978
featured Dave Vanian from The Damned. You also get to hear the
question I posed, with the one and only studio track that Dave Vanian
recorded with The Doctors of Madness that was co-written by TV Smith from The Adverts
closing proceedings.
