Wyrd Ways Rock Show

This week’s show features huge amounts of new stuff, as usual. That means new music from Queensrÿche, Def Leppard and Absolva amongst many others. Not only that, there are interviews and music from two bands who played the Jagermeister Stage at Bloodstock this year: Hell Puppets and Knock Out Kaine (the other half of the band I interviewed at the SOS Festival).

One more week away from Bloodstock (don’t worry, those of you with withdrawal symptoms… we at The Wyrd Ways Rock Show know your pain!), but we do have new stuff from Bloodstock alumni Trivium, W.A.S.P, Nile, Slayer and a Record Of The Week awarded to Motörhead. As well as being rammed full with the aforementioned new stuff, you’ll also be hearing Shock Of The New interview with members of Chasing Dragons, recorded at July’s SOS Festival in Manchester.

We’re taking a break from Bloodstock this week in order to shine the light on a much smaller festival, held every year in Radcliffe in Manchester. Organised and curated by the Appleton family, this one is like a cross between the Sophie Lancaster Stage, the New Blood Stage AND the Jagermeister Stage all rolled into one place. With much cheaper food and drink. As well as being stuffed to the gunwhales with new stuff, you’ll also be hearing interviews with members of Absolva, Lock Up Laura and Blaze Bayley. Come on in. The music’s fine!

As promised, we’re neck-deep in Bloodstock in this edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show. Carl and Suzi report live(-ish) from outside The Mötley Brew at Catton Hall on the Saturday afternoon of the festival. We also chucked in an archive interview from Hang The Bastard and a brand new interview from Sabaton’s new drummer, Chris. Add to that Dr Jim’s summing up of this year’s Brutal Assault, and you’ve got a show to listen to! As a Soundcloud user, you get the Broadcast Edition of the show by downloading from their servers.

We’re having a little breather from the festival stuff in this edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show, before going ballsdeep next time out. That means new stuff from Acts Of Defiance (Shane Drover and Chris Broderick’s post Megadeth band), Lamb Of God, Kataklysm and loads of others. Come and have a listen. You owe it to yourself.

Bloodstock… for those of you who’ve just got home, here’s a reminder of the weekend. Think of it as an aural postcard from The Wyrd Ways Rock Show to you. If you didn’t go, this is what you missed…

It’s here! Bloodstock is this weekend! To get you in the mood for the musical maelstrom we are about to enter, myself and Suzi have picked the bands we most want to see across all four stages. Hopefully we’ll get to see at least some of them! As a PodOmatic user, you get the Broadcast Edition of the show by downloading from their servers.
