Mostly posting music I'm listening to. Weighted towards heavy sounds. Open to recommendations. Love exploring and discovering new sounds.
Back home. On the train I listened to some more folk guided by Apple Musics recommendations. And fair play, this was a good album.

Kadavar have a spot on heavy, retro sound that I wish I liked a bit more. There new one is a good, not great, album. But if you want something old school, not a bad choice.

Panzerfaust did not disappoint (other than having no vinyl for sale at the merch stand). Huge set. Going to be one of my highlights of the year.

My highlight today was the chance discovery of Jesus Hoop. An emotional and beautiful album. I don’t dip into alternative folk enough.

On an emotional high from catching up with a friend I’ve not seen in 12 years and it not feeling like a moment has passed.

Sorry #bskybeer just had 3 fantastic beers at The Holy Tavern near Farringdon and didn’t take a single picture! But I will say the Sea Salt and Chilli Stout from Anspach & Hobday is exceptional. And the Plum Porter And Ruby Red Ale from St Peter’s Brewery co are also fantastic beers.

And now (I should mention I’m sharing these cans) a New England Pale Ale from Bristol Brewery. Bought for the pun but it tastes good.

Last night’s gig - Hanabie.
Merge metalcore with jpop and you end up here. Not my usual taste but I like this quirky mix.

Exciting and busy weekend ahead of me:
Visiting a friend in London. Celebrating his 50th. Catching a Japanese metal band. Meeting another friend I’ve not seen in twelve years. A black metal gig. And finally meeting a third friend I’ve not seen in a couple of years.

Sticking with the post- prefix I also played some Meniscus.
Fantastic drumming. I didn’t feel the sampled/synthesised speech added much to the couple of tracks that had it, but overall masterful post-rock.

This sat in a space that didn’t work for me. Too catchy and melodic in the end and I needed heavy and dark.
Bad? No, just not what I wanted. There was enough there to catch my interest but couldn’t seal the deal.
