Wyrd Ways Rock Show CDVII

8th March was International Women’s Day. It would also seem that March is Women’s History Month. It would have been nice to actually have been informed of that. Anyway, this edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show celebrates and commemorates the role of women in Metal. This one doesn’t just look backwards. I’m not looking at the already established. That’s why Doro, Nightwish, Butcher Babies,…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show CDVI

This edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show came together a lot quicker than I was expecting, to be honest. I just happened to find a lot of stuff that I wanted to play on the show over the last few days, so I thought I’d just record and publish. There’s more than the normal amount of Power and Symphonic Metal in this one, quite a lot of it being from Italy. That was mostly because it was precisely…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show CDV

January was a bit of a git, wasn’t it? Certainly was for me. At least we’ve got the music to help get us through. Some cracking new stuff came out, some of which you’ll get to listen to when you listen to the show. Plug in your headphones, turn it up, relax, get in the moment and let the soothing sounds of some excellent Heavy Metal take you to your happy place. Give it a listen here: Judas…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show CDIV

This is definitely the last edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show for 2023. I’m certainly not going to have the time to produce another one in the next few hours before midnight and the beginning of 2024. I hope everyone reading this had an excellent Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Yule, Zarathosht Diso or whatever you celebrate at the end of December each year. Anyway, here’s some quality Hard Rock…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show CDIII

Incredibly, a second edition in less than a week. You can tell I’m on holiday, can’t you? Be warned: there are a few naughty words in this show, and if you’re a gammon, a TERF, a homophobe or have any prejudices against anyone in the LGBTIA+ group… or, to be honest, anyone who is classed as having a “protected characteristic” (to give it in terms of the law here in the UK), you can fuck right…

Today's not great

Not doing so well today. Dropped the boy off at school and it’s been downhill since then. The usual stuff that would have worked isn’t doing. Could it be because I’m on my own today? Being alone doesn’t usually affect me, but today is different for some reason. Got an old edition of the On Wednesdays We Wear Black podcast playing. I need to catch up on those. This one’s from about May. Turns out…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show CDII

I’m back with another edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show. This will more than likely be the last one of 2023, since the music industry will very shortly be closing down for Christmas. Thanks to everyone who’s taking the time to give these shows a listen, and I hope you find something you like amongst the music I’m playing. Hopefully (thanks at least in part to people like Anika and Kirk) I could…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show CDI

How about another edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show? Ah… go on, then. As usual, loads of new stuff (well, new-ish considering how long it’s been since the last one). Whatever, there’s loads of stuff from all over the Rock and Metal spectrum, so there’s probably going to be something you’ll like that you’ve never heard before. Shall we get on? Alyxx – Alive Mimi Barks – Deadgirl Circle Of Dust –…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show CD (that's 400 in Roman numerals!)

Hello again and welcome to the four hundredth (yes, you did read that correctly!) edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show. So I’ve done 400 individual podcasts as either Wyrd Ways Rock Show or WWRS: The Forge, so for the milestone I thought I’d return to the original numbering and even the original style – doing it in Roman numerals. What’s in this edition? Aside from me ranting on a little bit about…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show 3-06

Welcome to the latest edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show.

Obviously that’s not all. Heading for two hours of top class Metal. Check the tracklisting below for details: Alt Blk Era – Obsession: Solar eOn – Come…

It's The Easter Holidays!!

I’ve booked a couple of weeks off. Something I’ve learned over the years is that taking time off needs to mean “time off”. No work or anything work-related happens when I’ve booked it. I’ve deliberately left the work laptop in my desk’s top drawer at work (and I hope I’ve accidentally left the memory stick with all my resources on it still plugged into it) and I don’t intend to go anywhere…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show 3-05

Bloody COVID. I manage three years clear, through the worst of the pandemic without getting so much as a sniffle and then I get it just in time for the holidays (half term, that is). Anyway. Here’s what I’m playing in the show: Scene Queen – Barbie & Ken Cage Fight – Bitch In The Pit Five Finger Death Punch – Roll Dem Bones Miracle Of Sound – Valhalla Calling Amon Amarth – Put Your Back Into…

End of Therapy?

No. You’re OK. I think they’re still going. In fact from a quick Google, they’ve got a new album coming out in early May. I’ve just had a run of therapy due to my ongoing campaign against depression and anxiety and yesterday was the last session unless we can get some more funded by my employer. It’s quite interesting in that all the signs seem to point to me needing to be able to unload to…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show 3-04

Welcome to the much-delayed September edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show. Why the delay? Family bereavement. Nuff said. Anyway, I’m back and since I already had the tracklisting sorted, I thought I’d record the show I’d already built. This stuff might not be as new as what I normally serve up, but I still think there’ll be something in there you’ve never heard before. Here’s the…

Been a while, hasn't it?

Been a while, hasn’t it?

I’ve not written a blog entry in years. Literally. I was checking, and I think the last date was something like 2020. It’s now nearly 2023, and I had something of an urge to write something. The question is, why? The answer is that I’ve really got no idea, but this seems to be a better option than blathering away on Tiktok. Probably the best thing about doing it this way is that I can think…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show 3-03

This show is running a few days late because it was my birthday on Friday, and I had other things to sort out during the week running up to it. Basically, “life gets in the way”. Anyway, welcome back to The Wyrd Ways Rock Show – the podcast/radio show that leaves the mistakes and verbal hiccups in and plays you the most awesome music available. Turn it up and enjoy. Here’s the playlist: Scardust…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show 3-02

A slightly longer show this week. I seem to be getting back into this. At least for now. The new stuff is the focus of this generation of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show, so that’s what this week’s edition is all about – new music. As a bit of an indulgence, though, I am finishing with a classic slice of 80’s cheese. Mosh buffers to maximum. Here we go… Playlist Amongst Liars – Reign Venues –…
