More forward momentum on this week’s show, mainly catching up with artists that have featured before, but I’ve caught up to date with their more recent material. I celebrated a friends visit to London with a couple of songs by Crippled Black Phoenix. My friend Ottavia put me on their early album, 200 Tons of Bad Luck a couple of years ago and it was about time I listened to their more recent releases White Light Generator and No Sadness or Farewell which I played a couple of songs from. There was also time for another play of The Dark Tides, celebrating a gig they’re playing Wednesday night, along with Sabatta and the Black Orchids. It’s so nice that they’re all playing together as I was used to having to decide who to see at times- the last couple or so times The Dark Tides and Sabatta have played for instance, were on the same night in different parts of London!
Also this month sees a new release by Archaic on a compilation, Release The Kraken, available as a free download on Ektoplazm. I took the opportunity to include it in a bit of a mix amongst recent favourites such as fellow Greek DarkShiRe along with Beardy and even heavier rocking by Kindzadza. You can hear it all again here:
