This week Bryn and Jaff are back in California with a rather good Cabernet Sauvignon.....and Jaff has certainly done his research this time! Prepare to learn some fascinating facts about grapes!As usual the conversation bounces around, covering topics such as Roger Waters' big opinionated mouth, the return of Radiohead, and the hopeful possibility of a Shane Embury set at a certain Bristol festival.....Musically, it's been one of the best weeks of the year!! We bring you a death metal album from Ireland, a lute album from Norway, an experimental split from Australia, multiple black metal albums....even Bryan Adams gets a spot!! All this and loads more.....It's one hell of an episode!!This Weeks ReleasesÅrabrot - Rite Of Dionysus (00:19:16)Dalapophttps://arabrot.bandcamp.com/album/rite-of-dionysusTrudger - Void Quest (00:30:51)Floodlit Recordingshttps://trudger.bandcamp.com/album/void-questUboa and Whitehorse - The Dissolution Of Eternity (00:45:17)Tartarushttps://uboa.bandcamp.com/album/the-dissolution-of-eternityCrimson Butchery - Stalker (01:02:44)Selfhttps://crimsonbutchery.bandcamp.com/album/stalker----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Burghash - La Triada Dels Idiotes WormHoleDeathZatokrev - ...Bring Mirrors To The Surface PelagicBryan Adams - Roll With The Punches BadamsIn Mourning - The Immortal DalapopThe Hives - The Hives Forever Forever The HivesPlay It Again SamAsh Magick -Rituals Of Anathematic East Apocalyptic WitchcraftHelloween - Giants & Monsters Reigning PhoenixRakim - The RE-UPHoley ToledoDeath Goals - Survival Is An Act Of Defiance SelfRolf Lislevand - Libro PrimoECM Records Hosted on Acast.

Piccini
Welcome back!! This week, there's a slightly haphazard trip to Italy, where Bryn and Jaff pop into the Piccini winemakers and try one of their blends. Bonus points go to the label which bears more than a passing resemblance to the Pothamus album from earlier this year!!Having just returned from a suitably debaucherous weekend at Bloodstock, Jaff soldiers through and provides a comprehensive run-down of the festival highlights. Bryn takes up the responsibility of reviewing two fantastic debut records that were released last week, and they both get rather excited about heading to ArcTangent this week!!This Weeks ReleasesPustulant Flesh - Gurgling Pustulence ()Extremely Rottenhttps://pustulant-flesh.bandcamp.com/album/gurgling-pustulenceCircling Over - Amends ()Braeburnhttps://circlingover.bandcamp.com/album/amends Hosted on Acast.

This Week Bryn and Jaff return to the familiar lands of Rioja...but there's a difference, and it's a genuine first for the podcast!!It's also (finally) festival season and there's Bloodstock predictions, a thorough dressing down of the lacklustre Wacken 2026 announcement, Bryn's top festival tip....as well as the usual truckload of verbal meandering that you've come to expect.Another six albums have been plucked from the tree of weekly music releases, and it's a hell of a mix...where else can you slide effortlessly from unhinged Australian slam into sleaze-laden LA grunge and then end up in the comforting arms of some traditional Death Metal.....This Weeks ReleasesPlasmodulated - An Ocean Of Putrid, Stinky, Vile, Disgusting Hell (00:26:16)Selfhttps://plasmodulated.bandcamp.com/album/an-ocean-ov-putrid-stinky-vile-disgusting-hellHedonist - Scapulimancy (00:38:00)Southern Lordhttps://hedonistsl.bandcamp.com/album/scapulimancyReturn To Dust - Speak Like The Dead EP (00:50:47)Republic Recordshttps://open.spotify.com/artist/53Hm23U3dtaHeB5Oy6GbaS?si=Hm2Lz4-sT0-TXBmjhxaJugVictim Of Fire - The Old Lie (01:07:38)Return Trip Recordshttps://victimoffire.bandcamp.com/album/the-old-lieBlessings - Blodsträngen (01:22:00)Pelagichttps://blessingsgbg.bandcamp.com/album/blodstr-ngenCorpse Maggot Crew - Family Reunion (01:34:40)Selfhttps://corpsemaggotcrew.bandcamp.com/album/family-reunion Hosted on Acast.

Hosted by two guys who know a bit about music and nothing about wine, the Tasting Notes podcast is a weekly chat about both. Bryn and Jaff try a different bottle every week in a quest to understand the terminology and to be able to taste wine, rather than just drink it; as well as discussing all things heavy, extreme and alternative in the world of music. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
