Just ordered At swim two birds. Haven't read it in probably 20 years at this point but came back into my head recently. Can't wait to read it again

Get loaded weapon into you. Love Tim's performance in that

Lots of greats already mentioned here. One band I go back to often are Dyslucsic. Never got to see them play live but still check the demo and 2 albums out.

Robert Pattinson as Chris Hansen, this has potential  .

Why don't you take a seat? Take a seat, right over there

My ma used to boil tripe in the gaff for my auntie because she was useless and couldn't (or wouldn't) do it for herself. The smell of it was absolutely revolting. Luckily my da eventually put the foot down and said it goes or he does. Thanks da

Summer listenings in full swing now

In the mouth of madness for me

I'll be returning to Ireland in August for a week. I'll see if I can find any of my old tapes when I visit my folks

I still blame John Kenny for mixing up Primordial and Waylander on the metal show for one night for putting me off them for years until I heard The Coffin Ships on a Terrorizer(or was it Metal Hammer?) CD.

Ah, so he mixed them up twice the plonkwr!!   
The first time he mixed them up with Sepultura for advance tracks off the new album back then.     

Imrama also didn't grab me. It has always been Storm and Spirit as the pinnacle for me.

I still have a tape in my folks gaff somewhere when John Kenny interviewed Igor Cavalera before the release of Chaos AD. He said 'here's Sepultura with slave new world part 2 and proceeded to play among the lazarae. Clown

FF were a one hit wonder for me, but Demanufacture was the business alright. Long time since I've spun it.

ha, the daughter texted me yesterday going "I see Fear Factory are playing Dublin soon..", so if it's a Demanufacture set I might accompany her

Sure why not. It'll probably be better than the SFX gig in... 96?

It was in 95. With Skinfather as support.

I didn't realise it was the same year as Machine Head in there. I really liked Skinfather. Less so Pet Hates who opened!

Yep, enjoyed Skinfather too. Decent band. Fear Factory were sound at that show. Came out and talked to everyone after the show

Been all over the place lately and haven't had much on but a few from the last few weeks that stood out:

Gospel - "The Moon is a Dead World"
Great album I come back to every few months.  Sort of post hardcore, sort of prog, spacey but to the point, lethal auld yoke.

Slift - "Fantasia"
Still at it.  Still great.  Another for the AOTY lists this year anymore definite it is faultless for me.

Fantomas - "Suspended Animation"
An all time favourite, back in rotation.  Wild, chaotic, but just savage.  I remember seeing the tour for this in the Village years ago and it is still one of my favourite gigs I ever saw.

Genghis Tron - "Signal Fire"
Great on the first couple of spins, plenty in here to dig into, will see if it holds up as well as the last album but this seems to have a bit more vigour about it anyway so far.

I had the new Warning album on once and I love it but have yet to go back to it for various reasons.

Have to agree about that Fantomas show in the village. 2005? It's in my top 5 shows of all time. Added bonus for getting to see Terry Bozzio on drums with them.

I do love Suspended Animations but Directors Cut is an all timer album for me

Thy fart is murder

Another Round

Danish film where Mads Mikkelsen and friends try to test the theory that maintaining a blood alchohol level of 0.05% every day improves your life. Decent oul craic. They're all teachers and there's some genuinely funny parts of them all trying to hold it together in school. More of a drama than a comedy overall though.

Great film. If you haven't already, check out Riders For Justice. Madds again and came out the same year as another round (I think). The tone is weird, it shouldn't work but absolutely does

If you haven't seen one called Flickering Lights I would recommend that too. A lot of the same actors in it.

Cheers dude, I'll check that out. Haven't heard of it
