The Pogues Rum Sodomy And The Lash

Incidentally , had a heated discussion with some nutter in the pub a while ago who argued The Pogues’ best album is If I Should Fall From Grace With God , whereas every person with a bit of insight knows its Rum Sodomy and The Lash by a country feckin mile. Excellent album !

On topic , I’m now listening to The Great Rocksteady Swindle by The Slackers.

Yeah it is actually… Nice dub like sound, all the songs on the e.p are on the album. Been enjoying it alot!

Johnny and a dub like sound , might take some getting used to. :)

Is the P.I.L. one any good ? Saw them about a year ago in Dublin and that was one killer show.

Having a listen here to Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus .

Sodom - Mortal Way of Live.

Just to bump this up…

Social D coming to Dublin in August , Academy on the 21st , ticket sales start this Friday on ticketmaster.
Very excited about this , last time I saw any SD related gig was in the Mike Ness solo days.

Anyone else up for this ?

SNFU - Something Green And Leafy This Way Comes.

System Of A Down - Mesmerize
Grip Inc. - Solidify

Joe Cocker Live.

Funny name , sounds like a piranha in pyjamas.

Been youtubing a bit today at work , just had Grace Potter ( of Nocturnals fame ) on doing a cover of Neil Young’s Cortez the Killer with Joe Satriani on axe doing the solo bits.

Ready for the weekend now after watching that a couple of times.

Pledge - A Tribute To Kerbdog.

Some Womble who shall remain unnamed stuck it in the CD player in my car on Sunday morning and it’s still there. :)

ASIWYFA - ASIWYFA
This Is The 2nd Album By A Band Called Adebisi Shank - Adebisi Shank

You into any other bands on the excellent Richter Collective label ?

I particularly like BATS , Not Squares and Enemies as well.

Jets to Brazil - Orange Rhyming Dictionary.

Been playing Easy Meat a lot lately , great album.

My mate Ciaran ( ex bass player of 20 Bulls Each ) does the sound at some of their shows. All very nice lads too , by the way.

To mark this lovely day I’m listening to Feb 14 by The Drive-By Truckers.

Possibly the best Valentines song ever.

Got a couple of new releases dropped on my desk this week :

Biohazard - Reborn in Defiance , like the sound of it after a first spin
Pulled Apart By Horses - Tough Love , disappointing so far

When work permits it I’ll have a go at Lacuna Coil and Lamb of God.

Au contraire me compadre , I quite like Enter Shikari. Think they are more than dub step and dnb though.

In fact , our own Andy J Cairns is apparently rather fond of dub step.

Deftones - White Pony.

Went to see Snow Patrol in Dublin last night ( Ms Cuch likes them ) and Graham was joining in as second drummer on a few songs.
Even got a song dedicated to him.

Anyways , it was nice to see him again and doing well.
Not my all time favo T? drummer but in fairness he could be doing worse than starting a tour with SP playing in front of 12,000 people for a couple of nights.

Listening to a Dutch punk collective called The Ex.

They’ve been around since 1979 but never really caught on , strange as they are actually pretty good and made some great albums.

Social Distortion - Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes

The Dreadnoughts - Victory Square
Urge Overkill - Saturation

LaFaro - Easy Meat.

What an album. What a band.

As today marks the 10th anniversary of the passing of Chuck Schuldiner , it’s Leprosy at full volume for me today.

Municipal Waste - Waste ‘Em All

Wonder where they got the idea from…

“On the weekend of the 25th-27th May 2012 at Alexandra Palace, London, All Tomorrow’s Parties will present the second UK I’ll Be Your Mirror event. Tickets are on sale via ATPFestival.com from Friday 11th November at 10am.
ATP are incredibly excited to announce that this year the event starts on Friday 25th May when the incomparable SLAYER will present their undisputed classic Reign In Blood live in it’s entirety during their headline set to celebrate it’s 25th anniversary! Released in 1986, it is widely considered one of the greatest albums of all time - in 2006 Metal Hammer named it “The best metal album of the last 20 years.”

Excellent line-up over the weekend with Mogwai , Guided By Voices , Sleep , Melvins , Mudhoney , Codeine and Yuck also on the bill.
Wouldn’t mind another trip to London meself for this.

All that talk of The Hold Steady had me dig up Lifter Puller - Fiestas and Fiascos CD.

Excellent for a Friday afternoon just before finishing work.

Mister buffalo-boy , for once I’m actually dead serious.
Been asked to work on it so I’m pretty much up to date on the script , who will play what , approved budgets from the IFI , working title , signed contracts and production meetings.

Unless I’ve been all dreaming this over the last year or so which is highly unlikely.

The Hold Steady - Stay Positive

Have that one in the car and play it on a regular basis , although I do prefer ‘Boys And Girls In America’ as a whole.

Stay Positive goes a bit flat after the first 2 tracks imo , but as I only have a 10 minute drive into work I usually don’t make it past those 2 anyway.

The Phonics will be involved in a great music movie for which filming will start in Ireland next year.
Kelly is the main character and it will include roles for members of bands like RHCP , Metallica and U2.

I’ve read the script recently and it looks really good.
