    Episode 235: Alpine Skies

    04/06/2026 | 1h 1 mins.
    Today on the podcast I am joined by Darren and Kevin, who make up the Dublin Alt-Rock band, Alpine Skies!
    I'll be chatting with the lads about their debut album, Inspired Conflicts, which was released on the 176h of April and features such great songs like 'Walls', 'A Long Way' and 'By Your Side'.
    Across the album’s ten tracks, themes of conflict and inspiration carry throughout, shaped by both the internal and external struggles (conflicts) that help shape and guide (inspire) relationships and life.
    I have been thoroughly enjoying this album since I first heard it, and if you don't take my word for how great it is, the album was also praised by Duran Duran's very own Simon Le Brun as well as praise from Hot Press, Fresh on the Net, and Red FM who have championed the band's atmospheric, emotionally charged sound.

    03/06/2026 | 1h 8 mins.
    A very special episode today in that I am joined by two of my favourite podcasters on the show, Richie of the Metal Cell Podcast and Letty of the Smashing Skull Sessions!
    We are going to be chatting about their latest project, 'Look Who's Talking Metal', which is Ireland’s first-ever touring metal talk show and has Richie and Letty covering their love of the genre, alongside special guests and audience participation.
    We will be covering how this project started, how the first shows went, what the show is all about and of course, their next show which will take place in the Foggy Dew and be an afternoon dedicated to one of the all time greats, Metallica!
    Delighted to announce I'll be taking part in the Dublin show as a guest alongside Psykosis drummer, Tom Moylan!

    Episode 233: Necromaton

    29/05/2026 | 42 mins.
    Today I am joined on the podcast by Voyd of the Enniskillen Death Metal band, Necromaton!
    Necromaton was formed in 2025 by brothers Voyd (bass/vocals) and Rony (guitar/vocals), both veterans of their old band Gargantuan. Necromaton have spent the last two years writing, rehearsing, and recording in the shadows. Completing the Necromaton lineup are Brian (guitar) and Shea (drums).
    They have already released a self-titled demo in January 2026 that I cannot recommend enough!
    Thematically, they explore their own satirical fictional concept, Necromaton: a totalitarian cyber-parasite empire engineered for self-perpetuation through subjugation and manipulation.
    I'll be chatting with Voyd about how this band started, the concepts that go into their lyrics, how their first ever gig was in Czech Republic and what the band has in store for the rest of 2026, which includes work on their debut album!
    Necromaton will be the headliner act for Templemore's Metalfest tomorrow so make sure to catch them at that unreal festival!

    28/05/2026 | 51 mins.
    Today on the podcast I am joined by all three members of the mighty Limerick based Metal band, TOOMS!
    Making their second appearance on the podcast, I'm am going to be chatting to the lads about their brilliant new album Karst, which is an album that really sees the band push themselves into the next level of their craft, offering blisteringly heavy music, creative blends of musical extremism and contains plenty of noteworthy surprises throughout it's runtime.
    We'll be going over the whole album track by track and all the stories that went into recording this album along the way.
    I have loved this band for years, always a pleasure to chat to them and listening to this new album is an absolute must!
    The album is out tomorrow and is available to order on Vinyl from the amazing record label that is Cursed Monk Records.
