2019/12/12

What a fitting way to celebrate the 50th Episode of the Podcast than to catch up with one of my favourite bands Grey Stag. They were down in Cork to also celebrate something; the release of their crushingly heavy "The Boats e.p". Matt, Steve and Gat (Alternative Matt) were soon relaxed enough after the trauma of Cork's traffic, to happily give some key insights into the plans and pre-production of making "The Boats". The discussion around the development of the band was interesting and the

I was delighted to sit down to have a chat the two Andys and the two Richs of Hornets in the luxurious surrounds of the Bodega Bar in Cork. The lads were quick to share their love of playing Cork and we settled in quickly to a great conversation that included the Northern Irish scene, their D.I.Y spirit, Rich's role of singer, artist and contortionist. The band are busy writing new songs and organising a few gigs in 2020. So enjoy the Podcast, there's plenty of laughs and stories to keep everyone

Black Coast's Chaz (vox), Scott (guitar) and Joe (guitar) join me in The Bodega Bar to talk about their short tour of Ireland with Bailer and Hornets. It was really great to hear how much they loved playing Ireland for the first time. Since forming in 2015 Black Coast have toured relentlessly in the U.K having secured endorsements by Blackstar Amps and Jackson guitars they have gone from strength to strength. The future is in their own hands; the lads talk about new songs, frustrations, a possible

The Metal Cell Forum Special. Delighted to work with Danielle Daly, Jack O'Neill (Coroza) Evan Prendergast (Worn Out) on this new show.

Hero In Error have a past that's more unusual than most. Formed in 2007 they released their debut E.P in 2010 “The High Point of New Lows” which created a massive surge in interest in them. Endorsement deals, PR companies and the American label with a famous producer on board swiftly followed. However it came at a cost to founding member Gary and later to singer Anto. New members were drafted in which included close friend of the band Rob from Red Enemy. Then there was the issue of recording an

The lads are off to a flyer with their band, having won over lots of fans with their Metal to the Masses final appearance and about to play in front of an eager crowd at The Siege of Limerick. Nomadus have secured support slots to The Crawling and Elder Druid so the future looks very positive for these Northern Irish Riff Lords. I can only hope they will back up the credentials

The Metal Cell was delighted to welcome Sean (Vox), Conor (Guitar) and Aaron (Bass) from Arjuna's Eye to the studio with in my opinion a contender for Irish Metal Album of the year “Amalgam” I was keen to get an insight into the stories about the songs and the work that went into the production of it. An album steeped in mythology and themes, the conversation was certainly incredibly entertaining and informative. Arjuna's Eye have certainly delivered with “Amalgam” and it remains to be seen where it

He had to build up his promotions company and web design business from scratch under the blistering heat whilst still avoiding burns on that pale Irish skin. In between that there's plenty of stories from the Cruiscin Lan, local bands, international bands, festivals and the Irish Metal Archive. Another huge plus is
