  • Hard News: The music I listened to, in reply to Rich Lock,

    I also rediscovered my metal roots via Kyuss Lives! back in May. Playing the Power Station on Fri 13th. Clearly it was fate.

    I’d also be remiss here if I didn’t mention that the support act – Doug Jerebine and Billy TK Snr. Who were awesome. Photos here.

    And Black Sabbath are reforming with the original lineup. We are, indeed, living through The End Times.

    Since it’s Christmas, and all the metalheads have crawled out of the gaps in the geometry of the non-euclidean woodwork, an ozzy/black christmas-themed ‘music I’ve listened to’ as an antidote to all that snoopy and bloody drummer boy.

    Black Sabbath – Snowblind. Hey, it mentions snow. That must be Christmas related, right?

    Original Hawkwind lineup with Lemmy – Motorhead. ‘Goes up like prices at Christmas’, indeed….

    Lemmy – run rudolph run

    Merry Christmas to one and all.

  • Hard News: It was a munted year,

    Just to set the seal on the year, North Korean state television is announcing the death of Kim Jong-il.

  • Hard News: The music I listened to, in reply to George Darroch,

    And was there any good music made by women?

    Well, I've been rocking the Annabel Fay album pretty hard. Really under-rated, in my opinion.

    the minority who can see the absurdity of the genre while still obviously being devotees.

    Oh, I think most fans can see how bloody stupid it all is. Unless you're Norwegian and spend your spare time burning down churches and murdering your fellow fans...

  • Hard News: The music I listened to, in reply to Peter Darlington,

    Well, I reckon Ozzy's pretty underrated in the funnies dept. Decades of substance abuse have taken their toll (obvs), but he used to come out with some pretty smart stuff.

    I always used to think Dio was a bit of a twerp, until I saw him in the 'headbanger's journey' doco.

    Now with extra added spanish subtitles. Calabozos y dragones, indeed...

    saw them with Dio

    Dio!? Die, unbeliever!

    More seriously, I was going to note his death this year, but wiki tells me it was last year. Getting old quickly….

    Ozzy Osbourne was the first gig I ever went to, as a callow 16 year old at the legendary London Marquee.

    Now a wine bar...

  • Hard News: The music I listened to,

    I developed a mild obsession with Florence + The Machine - 'Ceremonials' for a while.

    Listening to the album six or seven times a day for three weeks solid is still only 'mild', right...? On a scale of 'one' to 'restraining order' it's still only about a four..?

  • OnPoint: Dear Labour Caucus, in reply to Damian Christie,

    does anyone here not consider themselves to be middle class?

    One's Earldom presumably excludes one?

  • Hard News: Name That Food Blog, in reply to Lilith __,

    Feeding Frenzy

    This thread, or the name of the new blog? 9 pages in less than a day.

    Lucky we weren't asked about coffee - the reaction would have borked the internet.
