DBL#14/15 Double Feature

Tuesday, October 17, 2023 • Duration 02:03:35

This episode is a recut pairing of DBL #14 & #15 released in 2021 both with myself and Chay Lawrence. These episodes are topical for the month of October because they both concern the Horror genre. I was very happy with how they turned out and don't feel enough people got the chance to check them out when I'd switched podcast hosting. Anyhow I included a new introduction which goes someway to explaining why I've done fuck all with the podcast for most of the year! DBL#14: The episode here is a look at film, more specifically the 'Folk Horror' movie genre with Chay Lawrence who played in the bands Bob Tilton, Tribute and Coffin Pricks. All of his musical life is discussed at length in Episode #9 if you want to hear more about his background.Chay is also a big fan of the horror genre and October is a good month to discuss this stuff. 'Folk Horror' is usually based around 3 famous Hammer films: Wicker man, Blood on Satan's claw and Witchfinder general. We take things from there and end up with some unusual twists and turns into the 'Found Footage' genre with a focus on Hollow (2011), Borderlands (2013) & Crone Wood (2016). Intro music: DIE KREUZEN - Among the Ruins Outro: DEAD AND GONE - Mary King's Close. DBL#15 'UNDEAD SOUNDTRACKS' This is another episode where myself and Chay Lawrence take a shot at discussing some Horror movie soundtracks. There are a load of films to talk about, too many to take in because there was about another hour of recording which was either just brainstorming or rambling tangents. We start with the obvious and look at John Carpenter's scores then Tangerine Dream's contributions, as well as the classic Herzog/Popul Vuh teaming on Nosferatu. There were a number of Soundtracks from the 90s where bands played a huge role in a films visibility like the Crow. The well curated soundtrack for Return of the Living Dead is also discussed as well as obviously, the group Goblin. There's a bunch of other great films we talk about and share some cool anecdotes. Intro music: DIE KREUZEN - 'Halloween' Outro: ZOMBI - 'Slow Oscillations (7" version)'. Follow on Instagram @destroybeforelistening

DBL#27 'FILL YOUR BOOTS' part 1 w/Tim Brooks (Razorcake Magazine, YOFC Records, Stockholm Syndrome, Young Offenders, Nerves). LEATHERFACE were a pivotal band for myself and guest contributor Tim Brooks they are our favourite UK punk band. There's general information out there already but we really dug into obscure fact finding to help fill the gaps. We both felt it important to present these facts and information here as a resource.

DBL#26 SONNY KAY - 'The VSS Euro tour 1997 + ANGEL HAIR/Gravity records + Punk futures'

Monday, January 16, 2023 • Duration 01:22:55

Where to begin... vocalist for THE VSS / ANGEL HAIR / YEAR FUTURE etc. founder of the GSL label and Bottlenekk distribution as well as a graphic designer, art director for Sargent House and prolific digital collage artist. In 1997 The VSS travelled around Europe on the 'Nervous Circuits' tour. Seeing them play here was a total eye opener for me as a teenager. I was interested to know his perspective on touring the UK at that time and seeing the bands here like BOB TILTON / BABY HARP SEAL / STALINGRAD / HARD TO SWALLOW / KITO / EBOLA & RED MONKEY. This is the focus of the first bit of talk before a live VSS track leading into a section about ANGEL HAIR & GRAVITY records. There's a great chunk on this with lots of stories and facts I'd never heard before. The ANGEL HAIR track leads into more philosophical reflections on punk/hardcore & culture. It's a cool wide ranging talk with an awesome figure in the underground scene of the past 30 years. MUSIC: THE VSS - I Cut My Teeth (live at Gilman Street, 3/22/97) ANGEL HAIR - New Rocket YEAR FUTURE - Blundertown (The Birthday Party)

DBL#25 Tony Sylvester (Fabric, Southern Records, The Dukes of Nothing, Turbonegro).

Monday, August 29, 2022 • Duration 01:23:18

DBL#25 Tony Sylvester (Fabric, Southern Records, The Dukes of Nothing, Turbonegro). This was very interesting conversation for me, a great window into the history of London post-hardcore band FABRIC. From the origins in 1992, recording the 'Body of Water' album, never finding their place or sound & ending with 'Lightbringer' in 1995. After this band ended he focused on his various positions within Southern distribution (Dischord, Touch and Go, Kranky, Southern Lord records etc.) for the rest of the 90s until joining THE DUKES OF NOTHING (featuring IRON MONKEY/ORANGE GOBLIN members). With this group he toured and released the album ' War and Wine' on his Eccentric Man imprint in 2002. Throughout the 2000s Tony was involved in the formation of the AURORA BOREALIS label with former FABRIC bandmate Andrew Hartwell. He also curated and coordinated the ambitious, decade long LATITUDES series of releases (CIRCLE, CHELSEA WOLFE, DANIEL HIGGS etc.) for the Southern label until his leaving in 2010. In 2011 he ended up becoming vocalist for the Norwegian 'deathpunk' group TURBONEGRO recording and touring throughout the 2010s. He currently focuses his time on men's fashion/lifestyle writing and his own AWMS clothing brand. Follow @destroybeforelistening Outro: THE DUKES OF NOTHING - Half Evil

DBL#24 '90s HARDCORE MIXTAPE side A' - PETE vs PEET (Narcosis, Hard to Swallow, Red Right Hand, Underclass, Burst of Silence).

Tuesday, July 26, 2022 • Duration 01:09:00

DBL#24 '90s HARDCORE MIXTAPE side A' - PETE vs PEET (Narcosis, Hard to Swallow, Red Right Hand, Underclass, Burst of Silence). This episode is a slighly different one in that it's half conversation and half music. The focus being on the type of 90s U.S. hardcore that we both loved so much. It was a nice way for both of us to find a common bond and also talk about the bands he did vocals in like NARCOSIS, HARD TO SWALLOW, RED RIGHT HAND, UNDERCLASS, BURST OF SILENCE etc. Some big names weren't included but it goes without saying no 45 minutes would be complete if it didn't include the essentials like LOS CRUDOS, DROPDEAD or BORN AGAINST. There will be a follow on episode dedicated to 90s Euro hardcore which is equally as important but less talked about nowadays. You can most likely find any of these bands on Discogs or YouTube, Soulseek file sharing or via bandcamp in some cases... all of the original physical releases are worth picking up if you find anything interesting?

DBL#23 - LEE KNIGHTS (Thekevorkiansolution, Koreisch, Slavearc, Frequency Thirteen Records)

Friday, May 20, 2022 • Duration 53:42

DBL#23 - LEE KNIGHTS (Thekevorkiansolution, Koreisch, Slavearc, Frequency Thirteen Records). Having been involved as a drummer in many Sheffield area bands of the past 25 years he has a versatile skill set ranging from death and black metal to hardcore, grind, doom, jazz and beyond. Probably most notable for the frenetic grind of Thekevorkiansolution in the early 00s or the apocalyptic hardcore of Koreisch and controversial sxe metal band Slavearc in the later 90s. Moving past this he became part of the Frequency Thirteen Records scene with more experimental and psychedelic bands like the Unholy Warlock, Drawn of Ichor and Ice Bound Majesty. Most recently he has played in doom band Blind Monarch and Out Ink which is his latest more experimental Prog-jazz project. Follow @destroybeforelistening
