Karnivool: In Verses. Album of the year. I know its only March, but nobody is going to release better music than this in 2026. Its absolutely stunning.

I'm seeing Robert Jon & the Wreck again in May - already planning to sneak up to the balcony at the back so I can sit down! Hoping to get away from the crowd too - they ruined it last time!

Maybe there's an old biddies section we could stand in!

I'm just putting it on - I'm not going to get much work done this morning!

Always good when a @burningshed.com package hits the doormat! Even better when you find a K Scope sampler disc inside!

First listen to Body Count's 'Merciless' this morning. Not my kind of thing normally but it's going straight on to my albums of the year list - maybe at the top...

This is going to be a banger!

12" vinyl sleeve, insert and graphic just completed for Raw Reality's new release 'Nothing But the Lies, Nothing But the Truth'.

It's been a while since this little beauty had a spin. Such a great album!

First watch of the Porcupine Tree Closure/Continuation BluRay through great headphones and its absolutely stunning. Dare I say even better than Anesthetize live..?!

Surely one of the best hooks of recent years. I bloody love this song.

No matter where my musical wanderings take me (I'm listening to a lot of Heavy Psych at the moment), Blueneck's 'King Nine' will always have a place in my top five favourite albums ever. A truly stunning melancholic masterpiece that moves me like no other album ever has.

Blasting an old favourite this evening - Pat Benetar's 'Seven the Hard Way'

It's 9.30 on a Tuesday morning and I've blasted the new Green Lung album twice already today. It's insanely good...

A truly flawless album is quite a rare thing, but the Parlor Mob's debut - And You Were a Crow - is (IMHO) definitely one of the few. I've been playing this regularly since it's release in 2008 and it still blows me away.

What a night this was! Just a few short weeks ago - the Moon City Masters at the Giffard Arms in Wolverhampton. I waited a long time to see them and they did not disappoint!

The job is yours!

I'm trying to pick up some more Norwegian clients so I can go over for 'meetings'..!

I don't know what's in the water in Norway but they're making some amazing music up there! There's a new Airbag album on the way too.

Yes! Looking forward to hearing the new one!

#NowPlaying the new Vambo album and its going straight on to the album of the year shortlist!

It's been a great year for new music (particularly from Norway) - here's four of my favourites from 2023 so far...

Glam rock band Sweet Reason got together for the first time since the mid 70s recently to reminisce over a few beers, so we produced some appropriate shirts for the occasion! Search Sweet Reason on YT and the 100,000 dollar thing will make sense!

Logo design for The Red Robin Recording Studios...

A couple of mockup album cover designs...

It's on my playlist for today - good to hear you liked it!

Just bought the new Rival Sons album - Lightbringer. I haven't heard any of it yet but if it's as good as Darkfighter I'll be very happy indeed..!

First post over here! I'll start with Hippie Death Cult - I've just found them through Classic Rock mag (as with so many bands) and damn this is good!
