• 0:52
  None. What's up everybody?
• 0:59
  It's your boy Keith, and I am back.
• 1:01
  It is Thursday. You know what time it is?
• 1:03
  It's time for the weekly ritual. Ghost Colts rock and metal news
• 1:06
  show everywhere all over the web.
• 1:08
  The best experience for this is usually Facebook, YouTube,
• 1:12
  Twitch and Instagram, but I'm hanging out on TikTok.
• 1:16
  Pitch Black North is here. Transnister is here.
• 1:18
  Hello. Hello.
• 1:19
  Hello. Thanks for being here.
• 1:21
  You could use to watch anybody's show, but if you're watching me,
• 1:25
  I'm grateful. Seems kind of a mess up here.
• 1:29
  But anyway, getting out of Dodge soon, late on a Thursday, doing
• 1:35
  the damn thing. That's what we do here.
• 1:37
  That's all we do here. How's everybody doing?
• 1:40
  It's a spooky season. There's a lot of crazy shit
• 1:43
  going on in the music world. Alden and King Snake Jake is
• 1:47
  back. My girlfriend would like to know
• 1:52
  why I am so gorgeous looking on my live streams.
• 1:54
  I think it's the lighting is very kind to be honest, Melissa,
• 1:59
  the lighting is good. I do best under soft beautiful
• 2:03
  lighting. I look the nicest but thank you.
• 2:06
  I appreciate you so wild shit going on lots to talk about.
• 2:12
  Let's unpack the show for you. We do all the departments and
• 2:16
  recap you on what you have missed.
• 2:18
  Let us bring in the deck and rocking these Halloween themed
• 2:23
  images all week long, all month long.
• 2:26
  This is the best time of the year.
• 2:28
  I don't really want to think about the holidays until after
• 2:33
  November 1st. I like to enjoy Halloween as
• 2:36
  much as humanly possible. Every day is Halloween if you
• 2:38
  try hard enough and I just don't want to think about the
• 2:42
  holidays. Poppy put out a banger cover for
• 2:45
  Christmas already and I'm like, yeah, it's still October.
• 2:49
  I don't care about Christmas yet.
• 2:50
  Yet, you know, anyway, we always start these shows off with the
• 2:57
  announcements and thank you, dear.
• 2:59
  And we have some heavy ones. You know, we're still kind of
• 3:04
  reeling from the death of Ace Freely last week.
• 3:08
  Yeah. Ghost cult turn 13.
• 3:10
  We're still doing some celebrations and libations.
• 3:14
  Last few hours to enter our giveaway for tickets to see the
• 3:18
  cult Death, cult failure and patriarchy in LA.
• 3:21
  And this is probably the last show before the band goes on a
• 3:25
  very extended hiatus, if not maybe permanently.
• 3:29
  We'll see. I have more to discuss and put
• 3:31
  out a statement I'll bring to you later.
• 3:34
  But again, yeah, the loss of Ace Freely has just hurt me so much.
• 3:37
  Right after Ozzie and Brett Hines and a bunch of other
• 3:40
  people. John Lodge.
• 3:42
  We also lost Sam Rivers of Limp Bizkit.
• 3:44
  I think people knew he was unwell, but not as bad off.
• 3:50
  I don't think the reporting of that was done especially well by
• 3:52
  my peers in the scene. But you know, I'm going to do
• 3:55
  what I do with some ethics and some care because you never know
• 3:59
  if his family is finding out last or whatever.
• 4:02
  But rest to Sam, Rest in peace to Sam Rivers.
• 4:05
  What a definite shame that he passed away of 48 too young,
• 4:09
  between cancer probably and his liver and kidney problems from
• 4:14
  his years of drinking and Anthony Jackson, one of the
• 4:17
  greatest bassists to ever do the damn thing.
• 4:20
  He's also on the several of my favorite jazz albums of all
• 4:23
  time. He's also played countless
• 4:25
  commercials. He is was really a wonder on the
• 4:31
  bass instrument. Just very sad that he is gone.
• 4:36
  Also, this one kind of took me by surprise.
• 4:38
  This was sent to me. This one kind of caught me off
• 4:46
  guard. I won't lie.
• 4:50
  Where's my notes? I'm sorry.
• 4:51
  Here we go. Yeah.
• 4:53
  So this is Virginia Lily, who is like the Australian Pat Benatar.
• 4:59
  Hard Rock, female singer, long time artist.
• 5:02
  She also succumbed to a battle with cancer.
• 5:05
  Very sad. And then this one also kind of
• 5:08
  got me. You know, Glenn Leferman is a
• 5:11
  photographer from the LA area. You've probably seen his work
• 5:14
  shooting the greatest bands in heavy metal and rock and punk
• 5:18
  rock and was really known for his St. photography in the
• 5:23
  Sunset Strip and, you know, Roxy and the Rainbow era.
• 5:30
  James of the song, What's up? I am out of San Francisco
• 5:34
  personally, but Ghost Cult is a worldwide collective.
• 5:38
  Writers, photographers, you know, this is what we do.
• 5:42
  We do this all over the world. We are not corporate backed.
• 5:44
  So I'll drop the tip menu in a second if you want to give us
• 5:48
  some tips for good service. We appreciate it.
• 5:52
  And on to the happier things. Birthdays this week include
• 5:57
  Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo, who is 61, Dan Lilker
• 6:02
  of Nuclear Assault and SOD and a bunch of other Total fucking
• 6:05
  Destruction, and a bunch of other bands also in his 60s.
• 6:10
  Tom Petty would have been 75 this week.
• 6:12
  This is an adorable photo his daughter posted of them on
• 6:15
  swings. Sam Loeffler of Chevelle had a
• 6:22
  birthday this week. Mitch Lucker would have
• 6:25
  celebrated birthday. The original Suicide Silence
• 6:28
  singer and vocalist. I interviewed him once for a
• 6:31
  different website and he was super nice, so I'm very sad that
• 6:35
  he met an untimely demise. Alden Morris passing by a ghost
• 6:40
  cultist. Look forward to working with you
• 6:42
  again soon, my friend. Also, Gerald Jennifer of Bad
• 6:47
  Brain celebrated a birthday yesterday.
• 6:49
  Arguably the greatest bassist in punk rock, Weird Al Yankovic
• 6:53
  celebrates her birthday this week.
• 6:54
  All these all this Libra activity as well as Scorpio to
• 6:59
  follow and Nick Oliveri, formerly of Queens of the Stone
• 7:03
  Age and Caius and a bunch of other bands.
• 7:05
  Joe Marquez is here what up what up Nick Oliveri great guy be a
• 7:10
  very interesting guest for dinner at your house and and one
• 7:14
  of my favorite drummers of all time, Dale Crover of Melbourne's
• 7:17
  and his solo work celebrated her birthday this week.
• 7:20
  He's also, I think, 61 all right, with a little different
• 7:26
  approach. Some albums celebrating
• 7:29
  anniversaries this week include Soul Fly, Ritual, Ghosts, debut
• 7:34
  Opus, Eponymous, Defiance, The Prophecy.
• 7:37
  Love this one Slipknots five, the Grey chapter after Paul Gray
• 7:42
  passed away and Death human easily my favorite death album.
• 7:46
  I love all these albums. To be honest with you, not that
• 7:49
  many this week. So I condensed it down a little
• 7:52
  bit to save time. What else is happening this
• 7:55
  week? All right, let's just in case
• 7:58
  you want to drop us some tips to you know, we'll always answer
• 8:02
  your questions for free. But if you'd like to support us,
• 8:05
  we appreciate it. Here is what we offer and I
• 8:11
  think I raised the price on that rate.
• 8:13
  Your song live is 25. And again, my preference is for
• 8:17
  you all to join me on YouTube where it's easiest for me to do
• 8:21
  that. But if you DM me your music, if
• 8:23
  you have a band, Mark Badger is back.
• 8:25
  What up? What up?
• 8:26
  Hell if you DM me your music or at least your your account on on
• 8:31
  TikTok. I will follow you.
• 8:33
  It's easier for me to do this, play a song live on the air on
• 8:37
  the show from one of the YouTube channels we have.
• 8:40
  And so, yeah, I'm, I'm appreciative of anybody that
• 8:43
  wants to support us. Again, not family, not friends,
• 8:46
  nobody that works for me, but anybody else.
• 8:48
  We do this, it's a lot of work. We do this all over the world.
• 8:53
  We put in a lot of hours and time to do this.
• 8:56
  Like I was, you know, not to disparage anybody.
• 8:59
  I had a hopefully Maiden announces more than 12 shows.
• 9:03
  We're going to talk about that Mark, because it's very
• 9:05
  interesting. Foo Fighters 2 announced the
• 9:07
  tour. We'll talk about that.
• 9:09
  Like not that many dates. I don't kind of know what
• 9:11
  they're what the logic is there. It's very expensive to come tour
• 9:14
  and only play, you know, 2 handfuls of shows.
• 9:17
  But if you feel like tipping, we appreciate it and here's our
• 9:21
  cash app. That's that's my cash app lately
• 9:23
  is the thing that I've been getting a lot of hits on plus
• 9:25
  super likes and super thanks on the tube of you.
• 9:29
  Thanks for everybody watching. All right features this week
• 9:32
  here at Ghost Cult. We dropped two premieres today.
• 9:36
  One was the Chicago Post grunge band Lavisher, and they have a
• 9:40
  new album coming out and they dropped the new single with us
• 9:43
  today. And I thought, you know, this is
• 9:45
  a really good band, sort of a DIY Chicago area band.
• 9:51
  And what a cool, what a cool song.
• 9:55
  Like very unexpected. Lots of different flavors
• 9:58
  happening in the band. And then also so Lavishere's new
• 10:03
  song is detached. And then we did a premiere for
• 10:06
  the German black metal band De Rote Milan.
• 10:09
  I believe that is how you say it.
• 10:11
  I hope I am not wrong. And their new single Aust Dare
• 10:15
  Finner Stearns, their new album is coming out soon out in
• 10:19
  Europe. So we shared those things today
• 10:22
  and very exciting about them. I've been doing live streams.
• 10:26
  I did a few this week, obviously yesterday we went live and
• 10:31
  premiered. Tuesday we went live and recap
• 10:34
  the entire sick New World, the entire Sick New World show like
• 10:41
  announcement, which we'll talk about a little bit in a minute.
• 10:43
  But if you want an in depth analysis of both sick New World
• 10:47
  Las Vegas and Sick New World Texas, and if it's going to be
• 10:49
  worth it for you to go watch that video next, of course, you
• 10:54
  can watch that video by liking and subscribing and finding out
• 10:56
  whenever we go live here on the channel.
• 10:58
  Also every week the rest of October and November, we are
• 11:02
  going to be announcing 2 new bands every Monday at 2:00 PM
• 11:06
  Pacific, 5:00 PM Eastern, whatever time overnight in
• 11:09
  Europe, probably 1:00 AM in London.
• 11:11
  And we're going to be announcing bands for the debut inaugural
• 11:14
  Amazing Mojave Experience Festival taking place in Joshua
• 11:18
  Tree March 20th and 21st. Very likely you will see my face
• 11:23
  there with a little crew of ghost cultures.
• 11:26
  I've never been to Joshua Tree. I would like to go not because I
• 11:29
  like you too, because I don't, but just be seem fun to go.
• 11:32
  Seems like a beautiful place and a beautiful place to hear music
• 11:35
  interviews. This week we ran our new
• 11:38
  interview with the Ekastius Trains, Devin Schittaker.
• 11:40
  We've interviewed him before. New album You Are Safe from God
• 11:43
  here out tomorrow, this weekend on Ryze Records.
• 11:47
  I've listened to it, it fucking kills.
• 11:49
  It's so good. Also also, my new interview with
• 11:54
  Dave Davidson of Revocation. Long time favorite of Ghost
• 11:56
  Called. Not really supposed to have
• 11:58
  favorites or play favorites, but I can't lie, I spent a lot of
• 12:01
  time with this guy. He is a Wizard of death metal
• 12:04
  guitar. He's also a genius jazz
• 12:06
  guitarist and you know, jazz maybe you know low key jazz
• 12:11
  historian. He and I have had nerd out
• 12:13
  sessions before talking a lot of stuff.
• 12:15
  So check out my new interview with those guys.
• 12:18
  A lot of brutality this week in the interview section.
• 12:20
  More stuff coming soon to the YouTube and podcasts.
• 12:24
  Also the glacierly musical podcast beer metal and swearing.
• 12:28
  We finally got the gang back together.
• 12:30
  All three hosts were there, the host and the two Co hosts and we
• 12:33
  poured one out for Ace. I did a last Friday.
• 12:36
  I did a little tribute to ACE with my buddy Ken Pierce, the
• 12:40
  Piercing Medal, and then Don, Nick and I did our usual show
• 12:45
  with a lengthy discussion about Ace.
• 12:47
  I thought we did a really nice job paying tribute to the guy.
• 12:52
  Anyway, again, I mentioned earlier it's your last chance to
• 12:56
  win tickets to see the Cult in LA.
• 12:59
  This is probably it for them. Scooters here.
• 13:01
  What up pal, Good to see you. Good to see you.
• 13:05
  The cult sounds like they are hanging it up for a long time
• 13:08
  after this it it may be forever, but they have been going for
• 13:11
  three straight years as a touring entity.
• 13:13
  So you know, anyway, metal festivals and of course we're
• 13:16
  starting with sick New World and I'll end begin this a little bit
• 13:19
  for your benefit. I have these posters backwards
• 13:23
  but Texas is taking place this time next year, exactly a year
• 13:28
  from now. System of the Down, Deftone,
• 13:30
  Slayer, Evanescence, Manson, Prodigy, Knock Loose, Mastodon,
• 13:34
  Power Trip, bunch of other bands.
• 13:35
  Sick New World Vegas is still going to take place in late
• 13:38
  April. System of Down, Corn, Bring Me
• 13:40
  the Horizon, and a rare American festival performance.
• 13:43
  Evanescence, Marilyn Manson, Knock Loose, Cypress Hill,
• 13:46
  Mastodon, Filter, and a bunch of others that that Texas show also
• 13:52
  has Down, Acid Bath and Clutch. Wow and failure, pretty fucking
• 13:58
  rad. And Melvins and Health and
• 14:02
  corporate Brew and Kitty, both of them have Kitty.
• 14:04
  So anyway, check out our very in depth video on that.
• 14:08
  Our time millimeter just passed by.
• 14:10
  Love y'all good to see y'all new music.
• 14:12
  Hopefully hoping for some new music.
• 14:14
  So in addition to the Iron Maiden tour that we were just
• 14:19
  talking about, Mark, it's confirmed now.
• 14:23
  I was like looking at the dates, Louisville, KY, September 20th.
• 14:26
  So Iron Maiden is going to headline Louder Than Life in
• 14:29
  Kentucky in September and then we're going to talk about the
• 14:34
  rest of their tour, which is probably very brief for me, very
• 14:38
  brief. Again, Mojave Experience.
• 14:40
  We're now up to 8 bands announced for the festival with
• 14:43
  many more to come. TuneIn next Monday and we will
• 14:47
  share some more with you. All right, also also welcome The
• 14:54
  Rockville has announced a bunch more bands including The
• 14:56
  Offspring and Rise Against, who have a pretty cool new album.
• 15:00
  I didn't love The Offspring's new album.
• 15:03
  Is this a concert? It's a charity event.
• 15:05
  It's kind of got a festival looking line up this Sunday,
• 15:10
  October 26th in Los Angeles above ground four at the Fonda
• 15:13
  Theater. 2 iconic albums being performed in their entirety with
• 15:17
  an All Star band and special guest live on stage performing
• 15:21
  the New York Dolls at the Cars. Corey Taylor, Billy Idol.
• 15:25
  What does Corey Taylor think? DMC what up?
• 15:27
  Rick Springfield, Sully Erna of God's mag, Elliot Easton of the
• 15:31
  cars is very reclusive and doesn't come out much.
• 15:33
  Stevie Stevens. Billy Morrison, Uno Bettencourt
• 15:36
  of Extreme. Josh freeze of Nine Inch Nails,
• 15:38
  B Real of Cypress Hill. Billy Howardell of a perfect
• 15:41
  circle, Junkins of a perfect circle.
• 15:43
  Scott Shriner of Weezer. Gilby Clark, Fred Corey of
• 15:47
  Cinderella. Just see the devil hues of
• 15:49
  Eagles of Death and a bunch more.
• 15:52
  H is in there. Frankie Perez is in there.
• 15:55
  Pretty cool. Pretty cool.
• 15:57
  This this looks really good. If you are in the LA area and
• 15:59
  you want to support a good cause for charity, go check this shit
• 16:02
  out. The nation festival's around the
• 16:04
  corner, Corrosion, conformity, napalm death, pertubator, deaf
• 16:07
  heaven, amenra or big culture High On Fire.
• 16:10
  The haunted hellfest. Not the Hellfest in France, but
• 16:14
  the hardcore Hellfest that also there's some beef about that
• 16:18
  name. Well, we already know that
• 16:20
  Hellfest W is coming this February.
• 16:22
  Hellfest EI guess or Hellfest prime or Hellfest just will be
• 16:27
  taking place July 3rd, 4th and 5th in New Jersey.
• 16:32
  So that's pretty cool. We have some more trust Kill
• 16:36
  Records news later. All right, that's the brief look
• 16:39
  at concerts and the brief look at festivals.
• 16:41
  And now on to the concerts. So Rush originally announced
• 16:45
  like 10 shows and then they announced 15 more shows and then
• 16:49
  they announced 17 more shows. So understandably, a lot of
• 16:53
  people who bought tickets for those first dates that thought,
• 16:55
  oh, I better shell out a lot of money because I'm not going to
• 16:59
  get these tickets. Now there's a lot of opportunity
• 17:01
  to see these bands. And I suspect a lot of these
• 17:04
  tickets are going to hit the resale market closer to the show
• 17:07
  on like, you know, game time app or StubHub.
• 17:11
  And it's going to be a lot of angry people that pay like 600
• 17:14
  for the floor and 50 for upstairs.
• 17:17
  So, you know, I love Rush. I want I want them to do well.
• 17:20
  I think this is a dry run for other things.
• 17:24
  Those two guys didn't, you know, want to lose their career
• 17:27
  because their best friend in their drummer died.
• 17:30
  I don't have a problem with them coming back.
• 17:31
  I don't have a problem with, unfortunately, they're in bed
• 17:34
  with Tickyman. So like everybody else, you
• 17:36
  never feel confident. You know what, I've had a very
• 17:38
  good experience with game time for both sports and for music.
• 17:45
  DJ Crimson. So I'm going to tell you that,
• 17:49
  yeah, I absolutely, I absolutely think those are reputable.
• 17:54
  But I understand if you've had a personal bad experience too.
• 17:57
  OK, moving on. Just saw Judas Priest and Alice
• 18:01
  Cooper last week. Our coverage of this tour is
• 18:05
  coming tomorrow morning to the site.
• 18:08
  There are just a few dates left in the tour.
• 18:11
  Austin to Austin and Houston. So basically Saturday and
• 18:17
  Sunday. Yeah, no worries.
• 18:21
  No worries. DJ Crimson, no worries.
• 18:22
  I wouldn't steer you wrong. I have nothing to gain.
• 18:24
  Thank you so much for liking the live.
• 18:27
  And if you guys like rock and metal news and interviews with
• 18:30
  bands and all kinds of fun, cool things, give us a subscribe.
• 18:33
  And you like Iron Maiden. So here's this tour 12345678
• 18:41
  9/10/11 dates plus Louisville 12.
• 18:46
  That is a very short run of dates for a world tour for the
• 18:50
  North American tour and they are doing Mexico this winter.
• 18:54
  But like, it's a lot of money to do a big tour like this and I'm
• 18:59
  super pumped. Megadeth and Anthrax, although
• 19:02
  kind of with the Anthrax new album coming out, I sincerely
• 19:05
  hope Anthrax is going to do a real proper headline tour.
• 19:08
  They have not really done a headline tour with two openers
• 19:11
  in a long time. And I don't really, I want a
• 19:13
  long set from Anthrax and I'm not really crazy about a, you
• 19:18
  know, I'm not really crazy about half 1/2 an hour of Anthrax.
• 19:22
  Not enough for me as a huge Anthrax fan.
• 19:24
  But you know, it's a great looking tour and these these
• 19:27
  shows are going to be insanely in demand from Iron Maiden's
• 19:32
  debut to Fear of the Dark, so it should be very interesting.
• 19:34
  Nothing after the year to 1992 is going to be played.
• 19:41
  That's fucking rad if you love Iron Maiden.
• 19:44
  Old school set of hits. Mudvayne is wrapping up their
• 19:47
  tour this weekend. I'm hopeful we're going to cover
• 19:50
  them in Boston. Not 100% sure, but I think we
• 19:53
  will would like to get this tour covered with Static X invented.
• 19:57
  If not, we'll catch them on the next one.
• 19:58
  I still Ghost Cult broke the news that Mudvayne was reuniting
• 20:02
  and touring and we I personally, we've covered them, but I
• 20:05
  haven't been able to go see them personally.
• 20:07
  So that's a bummer. Foo Fighters also announced A
• 20:11
  brief tour today and again, like maybe it's just financially not
• 20:16
  viable. I know they have a new album
• 20:17
  coming up and I know they have, you know, a lot of new things,
• 20:20
  but here's the Foo Fighters stadium tour.
• 20:23
  Toronto, Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, Philly, Nashville, DC
• 20:29
  Fargo, Regina, Canada, Edmonton, AB, Vancouver, BC, Las Vegas.
• 20:37
  So maybe they're going to add more dates, more shows to come
• 20:41
  as well. Keep an eye out, but not a lot
• 20:42
  of dates, not a lot of confidence.
• 20:45
  Yeah, absolutely, man. I mean, I I saw Iron Maiden and
• 20:49
  Anthrax many, many times. Anthrax, probably one of the
• 20:51
  bands I've seen the most over 30 times.
• 20:53
  I'm from New York City. I have a lot of opportunities to
• 20:55
  see them. Maiden I've seen quite a bit,
• 20:57
  and I always love them and they always put on a great show.
• 21:00
  And Megadeth will bring it because it's their farewell.
• 21:03
  You know, Megadeth in the middle slot should be pretty solid for
• 21:06
  like 45 minutes. And I think that, you know, 45
• 21:09
  minutes to 55 minutes, maybe almost an hour, but very, very
• 21:14
  solid, Very solid. So Foo Fighters, also new stuff
• 21:17
  with them. Dream Theater.
• 21:18
  We're covering the Dream Theater show tonight in upstate New York
• 21:23
  in the Albany area of the Parasomnia and Evening with
• 21:26
  Dream Theater should be a fantastic show.
• 21:29
  Await the coverage for that next week or the week after Russian
• 21:33
  Circles is announced. A European spring and summer
• 21:35
  tour with Pelican, including festivals like Desert Fest, the
• 21:40
  Dunk Festival, Desert Fest Berlin.
• 21:43
  So Desert Fest Oslo, Desert Fest Berlin and a few others.
• 21:47
  So that that's really cool. Love both those bands.
• 21:51
  Ithaca, Yeah. Just about Bay Way has been on
• 21:56
  the road since some of that Biohazard tour got cancelled.
• 22:01
  They are picking back up with the tour tonight in Pontiac, MI,
• 22:04
  so that show is probably already underway.
• 22:07
  And then Montreal, Toronto, Brooklyn, which we may cover,
• 22:10
  Worcester, Allentown, Sayreville and New Haven, CT.
• 22:15
  So that's pretty exciting. Better Lovers is on tour in the
• 22:23
  UK and Europe. Very exciting for that.
• 22:25
  Bon Jovi announced the big tour today.
• 22:28
  Not that many shows also. And you know, Bon Jovi, Jon Bon
• 22:32
  Jovi's been having hearing problems and voice problems.
• 22:35
  So I hope we don't have another Gene's addiction situation on
• 22:38
  our hands where he can't hear himself and the band is getting
• 22:41
  louder and louder. I do The Elves is back.
• 22:43
  What's up? So, you know, I just I just
• 22:46
  worry about. But big year for Bon Jovi new
• 22:49
  album, recent deluxe edition of their album Coffee Table Book.
• 22:54
  I'm still trying to get my hands on it.
• 22:55
  FedEx is kind of killing me with this, but yeah, very, you know,
• 22:59
  Bon Jovi fans get excited. I don't know that Bon Jovi is
• 23:03
  going to do 10 more years of this.
• 23:04
  I could see 5 or less. John Tate is doing his final
• 23:10
  four of Queens Reich ministerial operation Mind crime.
• 23:13
  The final chapter is kicking off in just a few weeks in Salt Lake
• 23:16
  City. Beverly Hills has a show that's
• 23:20
  weird. Roseville, Fresno, San Juan
• 23:22
  Capistrano a lot of a lot of California, mostly Southern
• 23:26
  California. Oh well.
• 23:29
  But yeah, looking forward to that this again these shows
• 23:31
  coming up in December bleeding through God forbid darkest hour
• 23:35
  and Nora at Wally's Holy hell, holy hell Pussifer.
• 23:42
  We have a new pussifer song and album.
• 23:44
  The Normal Isn't tour was announced with opening guest
• 23:47
  Dave Hill. Brenda Ghost Cult would love for
• 23:50
  him to hang out with us for a while for maybe.
• 23:53
  So that's going to be fun and new pussy for selling kind of
• 23:56
  rips. We'll talk about that in a
• 23:57
  second. Today is the day never give in
• 24:00
  tours coming soon. Very exciting for that Masters
• 24:04
  of the Holy. RIP Atomic bitch reaction.
• 24:06
  Crowbot are kicking off their new tour tomorrow night in
• 24:09
  Syracuse. Well Speaking of Trust Kill,
• 24:12
  Walls of Jericho has booked a handful of shows around their
• 24:15
  appearance at the Headbangers boat coming up soon.
• 24:19
  We get Lamb of God, check out Oceans run Black, that sounds
• 24:23
  cool. Give us Adm there and I will
• 24:25
  check out the band. My friend and I think Walls of
• 24:29
  Jericho also has like some first time ever on vinyls put out by
• 24:33
  Trust Kill so that's kind of fresh.
• 24:34
  Hopefully they have them to sell at least at the local shows.
• 24:42
  I have always liked Walls of Jericho.
• 24:45
  Paradise Lost continues their ascension tour with Mesa and
• 24:49
  High Parasite. Our review of this is already
• 24:52
  live. What else?
• 24:55
  Helmet Dwarves? Blood vulture on tour?
• 24:58
  I'm going to miss this show in my town because I have other
• 25:01
  things I have to do, but I'm hoping we're going to cover this
• 25:04
  later in the tour this week perhaps Iron Maiden the pooper?
• 25:07
  Thanks to Don de Lamont for sending this to me.

  That is all the festivals and concert tours.
• 26:40
  Now for a quick blast of all the news, rumors and drama this
• 26:44
  week, Ozzy Osbourne has another best time New York Times
• 26:48
  bestseller, right. It was talking about this last
• 26:52
  week that it was probably going to land on the bestseller list.
• 26:54
  It did. So Last Rites by Ozzy is a New
• 26:59
  York Times bestseller yet again. Also at the Ozzy Osbourne
• 27:03
  Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery with the Working Working
• 27:07
  Class Hero exhibition about Ozzy in his hometown.
• 27:11
  They have the ultra rare Ozzy Osbourne shell toe Adidas.
• 27:16
  Maybe they're not shell toe, but they're the black with the
• 27:18
  purple for the colors of Ashton Villa and Black Sabbath.
• 27:21
  These are apparently some of the rarest sneakers in the world.
• 27:23
  They were never really sold to the public.
• 27:25
  They were only made for like 300 pairs ever.
• 27:29
  So that's Ozzy's pair. I think lot of comments and
• 27:34
  commentary on Metallica's performance last week at
• 27:37
  Dreamforce. Some people are saying they were
• 27:40
  there and they had an incredible time.
• 27:42
  Other people are like, yo, it was a whole sea of non Metallica
• 27:45
  fans. You know, it was a corporate
• 27:47
  event. It's a corporate convention that
• 27:51
  Metallica plays. They have a long time
• 27:52
  partnership with Salesforce here in the Bay Area.
• 27:54
  Not a big fan of their company, but you know it is what it is.
• 28:01
  Axl Rose is back to being Axl Rose.
• 28:03
  Hopefully this means we're going to get some more kick ass music
• 28:05
  from Guns and Roses at some point.
• 28:07
  Apparently he was having a inner ear monitor malfunctions and
• 28:11
  threw a complete fucking hissy fit meltdown on stage during his
• 28:15
  recent concert. He absolutely kicked Isaac
• 28:20
  Carpenter's drum and tossed his microphone into the drum kit.
• 28:24
  Not particularly mad at Isaac, it's kind of very unprofessional
• 28:27
  behavior. But I know that Axel, when his
• 28:31
  situation is not to his liking, he gets kind of pissy.
• 28:35
  And then they put out a statement today.
• 28:36
  Like obviously we love Isaac, he's been great.
• 28:39
  We are just mad at the sound myth is fucking awesome.
• 28:44
  The brand new Prime Minister of Japan, who for the first time
• 28:47
  Japan has a female Prime Minister.
• 28:50
  I believe this is Tanake Jakaki, I hope I said that correctly.
• 28:54
  She is a huge metal head and was a metal drummer in her younger
• 28:58
  days and listens to metal. So Japan just got 100% more
• 29:02
  metal? That is fucking rad.
• 29:05
  I'm into it. Speaking of Trust Kill, if you
• 29:08
  were a fan of soundtracks like Saw, the Saw 6 soundtrack is
• 29:12
  getting a vinyl re release for an anniversary edition for the
• 29:16
  15th anniversary of Saw Six and the vinyl looks like Saw Blades.
• 29:20
  That is fucking cool. I don't know how much it is but
• 29:24
  it's got my interest piqued. Plus for again, their new album
• 29:28
  Normal isn't just coming out soon and they said that it's
• 29:31
  going to be a much more guitar orientated album while also
• 29:34
  leaning into the bands like post punk and goth, you know, vibes
• 29:38
  as opposed to maybe some of the synthy synth wave and pop sort
• 29:42
  of dream pop that they've been doing.
• 29:44
  But hard because that's pussifer.
• 29:46
  They go hard. But I'm really excited based on
• 29:48
  that first track, self-evident and looking forward to this
• 29:52
  record coming out in February. We're already getting the
• 29:54
  announcements of the 2026 albums already shaping up to be a
• 29:57
  banger of the year. Another Tres Kyle band,
• 29:59
  Shattered Realm has some first times on vinyl.
• 30:02
  Pretty cool. Dave McLean, one of my favorite
• 30:05
  drummers of all time. I just saw it last week with
• 30:07
  Dark Angel is now out of sacred, right?
• 30:10
  Sacred right put out a statement.
• 30:11
  It was pretty so the point and terse as we say.
• 30:15
  They do have a backup drummer coming on Edward Baldo for to
• 30:18
  play the tour with Hate Breed in a couple of days.
• 30:21
  And then Dave put out a statement today like I love
• 30:24
  performing for you. I'll be back.
• 30:25
  I just I'm not in that band anymore.
• 30:28
  So that kind of sucks, huh? I love that guy.
• 30:31
  Dave McLean, formerly of Machine Head and now once again formerly
• 30:33
  of Sacred, here's Jon Bon Jovi. Speaking of Jon Bon Jovi just
• 30:37
  hanging out at the No Kings protests in Philadelphia.
• 30:40
  Pretty rad to see. You know, Jon Bon Jovi's not a
• 30:43
  billionaire, but he's like at least 100 millionaire, right?
• 30:45
  And he's at the No Kings protesters hanging out with
• 30:47
  people. And someone saw him and I was
• 30:49
  like, hey, I want you, Jon Bon Jovi.
• 30:50
  And he was like, yes, I am. He's a little runaway.
• 30:54
  I'm kidding. Hey, if you watch some of our
• 30:58
  other podcasts or seen some of our interviews on our YouTube in
• 31:01
  a podcast, you know my buddy Don de Lamont, he is actually
• 31:04
  putting out an incredible album of dark folk in Americana.
• 31:08
  One of the lucky things about Ghost Cult is because we are
• 31:12
  don't have rock in our name or metal something we can kind of
• 31:16
  cover whatever we want to do. So if you like Marissa Nadler
• 31:19
  and Amigo the Devil and Nick Cave in the Bad Seeds, you might
• 31:23
  dig this record from Dawn. So yeah, check it out.
• 31:28
  Jeff, DFW is here. What up?
• 31:30
  What up? Yeah.
• 31:32
  Check out Don's new single Drop today.
• 31:34
  And he's got pre-orders at Band Camp and Ampwall.
• 31:37
  Also, not necessarily something you come to go call for, but
• 31:41
  there is a 25th anniversary edition coming out of Brian
• 31:46
  Wilson of The Beach Boys live at the Roxy Theater.
• 31:49
  Now. This live album really put him
• 31:54
  back in the game as far as being a touring musician, you know,
• 31:59
  kind of acrimony between him and the rest of The Beach Boys was
• 32:02
  something very real. I'm very sad that Brian was ill
• 32:05
  and passed away earlier this year, but this album is fresh
• 32:09
  and it has kind of like Brian solo stuff, stuff he was
• 32:12
  inspired by and influenced by, as well as all The Beach Boys
• 32:16
  classics, and it really gave him the confidence to come back out.
• 32:19
  So I'm hoping to pick this up at some point or have them send it
• 32:22
  to me. Just a little bit of movie
• 32:26
  minutiae for you. I saw Tron Legacy Tron Aries
• 32:29
  last night. Sorry.
• 32:30
  Tron Legacy was 15 years ago. Tron Aries was fucking awesome.
• 32:33
  I might do a review of it on the channel alongside the soundtrack
• 32:37
  review. I thought it was great.
• 32:39
  I know it's doing bad at the movies and it may not get a
• 32:41
  sequel, but it seemed like they were setting up future sequels
• 32:45
  with Jared Leto and the cast. And also coming out this week is
• 32:49
  Springsteen, Deliver Me from Nowhere, which is the biography
• 32:53
  of the early, you know, pre Nebraska Springsteen, Born to
• 33:00
  Run and all that stuff. Jungle Land, all those songs
• 33:02
  came from there. And yeah, Jeremy Allen, White of
• 33:08
  the Bear and formerly of the TV show, the American version of
• 33:11
  Shameless is the star as the young Springsteen.
• 33:14
  It also features a pretty great cast, so I am interested in
• 33:19
  seeing this at some point this weekend.
• 33:21
  I'm not the biggest, like I love Bruce, but I'm not the biggest
• 33:24
  die hard Bruce fan. I'm from New York, I love Billy
• 33:26
  Joel, but Bruce is cool. He's got some great songs.
• 33:30
  And that is all the news I whipped through that we're about
• 33:33
  to run to the end of the show. We've got just a few more things
• 33:36
  to discuss and one of the things we're going to discuss is the
• 33:38
  new albums out this week for New Music Friday.
• 33:41
  Every week we do a video preview of the new records you need to
• 33:45
  pick up and spend and you can check it out on all our socials,
• 33:48
  but it's usually on YouTube and our website.
• 33:50
  Tomorrow we'll have a post on our website with those albums
• 33:54
  with by links. So this is where you can get.
• 33:57
  Here's all the records coming out this weekend.
• 33:59
  I'm going to do band the title, the label if they have one and a
• 34:02

  We're going to do the mailbag and what is in the mailbag re
• 38:03
  Big and me and this week in the mailbag.
• 38:06
  This is really cool. If you've been a fan of the
• 38:08
  channel, there's an artist I'm a huge fan of named Joey Diabolic.
• 38:11
  Joey is originally from the Hudson Valley region in upstate
• 38:15
  New York. He lived in LA for a while.
• 38:17
  He's a solo artist, graphic designer, metal guy.
• 38:21
  He's done an array of covers as diverse as John Carpenter,
• 38:25
  horror movie soundtracks, Type O Negative, you know, just
• 38:29
  incredible stuff. And he has actually put together
• 38:32
  a brand new magazine called HV Scene and Beyond, and this is
• 38:37
  the debut issue. She sent me a bunch.
• 38:39
  I maybe, you know, if you check out Joey Diabolic on YouTube and
• 38:43
  on Facebook and things, you can order this from him.
• 38:46
  But if you're interested, I have a bunch of copies, so maybe I
• 38:48
  will give them away if people ask for enough interest.
• 38:52
  It's photography, interviews, just very cool looking magazine.
• 38:56
  Ghost Cult started as Zen in much the same way.
• 38:58
  So I'm always very respectful. And yeah, shout out to Joey for
