The Wyrd Ways Rock Show

Not going to forget this one, but this was third time lucky when it came to uploading! Anyway, this week's Wyrd Ways Rock Show features an interview with the bassist from UK Power Metallers, iAMi, as well as a few tracks from their current Event Horizon album. It also features new material from the likes of Airbourne, Oliva (that's Jon Oliva of Savatage fame), Mire Of Evil and the REAL Tank. There's the odd classic in there as well for good measure. As usual, it's all there for you at www.wyrdwaysrs.com.

Oops! Just realised I've forgotten to post this one! It's got two, yes TWO interviews from last year's Bloodstock, featuring two cracking up-and-coming British bands, Absolva and Dakesis. It's also got new stuff by the bucketload (as per usual), a cover song and... well... all the usual gubbins you've come to expect in The Wyrd Ways Rock Show. Come over to www.wyrdwaysrs.com and play!

On the second of May, Jeff Hanneman, guitarist of the mighty Slayer died from liver failure as a symptom of the necrotising fasciitis that had forced him to sit out the last two years. With that in mind, there’s a few Slayer songs in this week’s show. Come over to www.wyrdwaysrs.com. There’s also an interview with Gama Bomb’s John and new stuff from Deep Purple, ESO and Mask Of Judas.

BIG one this week. Not only do we have new stuff from Black Sabbath, there’s also new stuff from Civil War (featuring ex-members of Sabaton), Rob Zombie, Angels Of Babylon and Death Dealer (featuring ex-members of Manowar). There’s also Bloodstock news and something new from Children Of Bodom. So lots of new stuff, then! Come over to www.wyrdwaysrs.com for more new stuff! Oh yeah… there’s also an interview with Flotsam And Jetsam’s Kelly Smith.

It’s a long show this week. Mostly because of a big interview with Christofer Johnsson of Therion. There’s also new stuff from A Pale Horse Named Death (who used to be Type O Negative), Soul Of Steel, Collapse and Fair Warning. You’ll also get a cracking cover version and Christofer’s choice of music. Come over to www.wyrdwaysrs.com for more.

Big one if you like Amaranthe this week. I have recently come into possession of their new album, The Nexus (which is really rather excellent), and had a conversation via Skype with Elize and Olof from the band. Loads of new stuff, too. Meshuggah, Saffire, Volbeat and Geoff Tate's version of Queensryche. That's not all, but you'll have to listen to the show to find out what else. Come over to www.wyrdwaysrs.com for more.

It’s a big one this week if you’re interested in Alice Cooper’s live guitarist, Orianthi Panagaris. I interviewed her at Bloodstock and at the Sheffield City Hall last year. Both of those interviews as well as a decent sized sampling of her rather excellent new album are featured in this week’s show. On top of that, you’ll also be getting new material from perennial Rock Show favourites Finntroll, Kvelertak and a teaser track from Queensryche, showcasing their new vocalist, Todd La Torre. What are you waiting for? Get over to www.wyrdwaysrs.com and click the relevant links.

This week's Wyrd Ways Rock Show is dedicated to up-and-coming North Lincolnshire band, Skarlett Riot. Their debut album, Tear Me Down, came out this week so I've put the interview I did with them at Bloodstock in the show with a selection of tracks from the album. As well as that (as if that isn't enough!), there's the usual selection of new material. What are you waiting for? Get over to www.wyrdwaysrs.com and click the relevant links.

Bit of a mixed bag of good and bad news in this week's show. The good news is that Black Sabbath’s new album is due in mid-June. The bad news is that after a long illness, fighting Multiple Sclerosis, Clive Burr, the original Iron Maiden drummer, has passed away. As such, this show is dedicated to him and his memory. With that in mind, there’s going to be a good few songs from his tenure on the drumstool. There's also the usual new stuff. It's all there for you at www.wyrdwaysrs.com.
