I'm So Bad Baby I Don't Care

Great gig in Liverpool last night - A Motörhead tribute act called Stone Deaf Forever, fronted by our good friend and long-time collaborator Benny Killhamster, AKA Thee Iron Skum, AKA H.


Benny Killhamster of Stone Deaf Forever
A great set - quite long too! - with all the classics you know and love. And a great turn out for the show, with plenty of faces from around the area who you would be very happy to see attending your first public show.

Congrats to the SDF boys, hopefully the first of many gigs for this great 'Head tribute band!

Patchie's Record of the Week


Rawhide - Branded for Life EP

I was going to start this review off by saying "imagine, Motörhead on speed" but then I though, no, that is Motörhead.
So, imagine, being on speed, listening to Motörhead on speed, but this Motörhead have been listening to a load of garage rock and going crazy worshipping bands like Midnight and Venom.

If this doesn't get you interested then I don't know what will.
Just 4 tracks on this EP giving you a taste of what these Swedes are all about, like a d-beat version of WBTD that you can sing along to.
THe first song, the title track has a grimy rock n' roll feel to it, bringing to mind sunglasses indoors, cigarette smoke and old, old leather jackets, a barnstorming start to the EP.
Out of Track starts off with a more slowed down intro, before careering off into a Poison Idea style stomper, excellent guitar solo in this. By the time I was up to Through My Eyes, I was considering whether I can get away with wearing cowboy boots, it's that cool. Another great fists in the air chorus on this one. EP closer, Sanitarium Blues is a UK Subs style pogoing monster of a track, which I can imagine blasting out of the windows of Thee Clawmobile as we hit 105 down the M62.
All in all it's a solid, rocking punk stormer of an EP, and I can't wait to hear the full length.
Keep an eye on these guys, keep an eye on your girl when they're around.

In a nutshell: Motörhead and Venom meet for bare knuckle fight behind a nightclub that The Damned are playing at, and create the sound Darkthrone have been after for a few years now.
Get yourself over to PATAC and get it ordered. First come, first sleazed.

Fenriz’ Metal Merchants Festival DJ Set, Vol. II

Huge props to †ROCKWELL† and the guys over at Vice for posting the latest DJ set list by brother Fenriz from the 2008 (or was it 2009?) Metal Merchants Festival in Oslo. Yes, this list is now a couple of years old but, hey, the music is even older than that and let's be honest about 98% of people will never have heard more than a handful of these tracks anyway.

What we're saying is, basically, this is an example of the shit you should be feasting upon on a regular basis if you want to carve yourself a niche as an "old school" thrasher. (Not that you can ever hope to technically be considered old school if you are only just starting out now anyways, but you get our meaning!)

All of the following is lifted directly from the VICE Magazine website. Thee Claw recommends that you go check it out, they have a lot of other shit there that you're sure to gain some insight from.

Fenriz Metal Merchants DJ Set (2008) Vol II

TRACKLISTING:
1. UFO (ENGLAND) - “ROCK BOTTOM” (1974)
2. MINDLESS SINNER (SWEDEN) - “MASTER OF EVIL” (1983)

Fuck yeah.

Note: We just decided... It would be so easy to simply add the original download link for you to grab a copy of this compilation, but then that would be a bit wrong of us, don't you think? We reckon so. So instead let's just all agree that you will go to the Vice page for the compilation and get the link from over there.
