KK's Priest - The Sinner Rides Again

It's Very Metal, and very silly.  The song titles are all very Priesty.  Tim "Ripper" Owens screams - a lot - and all the guitar solos go wee-wee-wee at 100 mph.

Having said that, I wonder if I'm being more critical because it's a KK album rather than a Judas Priest album?  It's ridiculous, no doubt about that, but it's also pretty entertaining.  And in addition to those 100 mph solos, there's some nice melodic guitar reminiscent of Iron Maiden... it's not at all bad really.

I think he is the face of rather than the owner of KK’s Steel Mill in Wolverhampton but its a very active live music venue, lot of rock but other stuff too. Nice that someone is making the effort.

I guess this is fantastic or fantastically silly, I’m not sure I could cope with the whole album.

If you are feeling up to it, I'd suggest the second album, it's definitely an improvement on the first.

The Donnas - Gold Medal

I'd forgotten how good this is.  For some inexplicable reason I've never listened to any of their other albums.

I've been following Matthew Scott on youtube https://www.youtube.com/@MatthewScottmusic for a while now and he's released an album. I have to confess that I don't listen to much contemporary music but I've love this album. It's not breaking any new ground especially but it has some decent songwriting and some tasty playing. It's americana, blues, rock and maybe a bit of country. Matt is a good player and it turns out a decent singer also. I've played it three times over so it must have something. Well worth a listen.

Witchcraft - Nucleus

It's taken seven years, largely through hearing individual tracks as bite-sized chunks, but it's finally grown on me.

The Black Country Film Review Show on Black Country Xtra. Because we all love local internet radio stations!!! And my son is one of the giggling young men who presents it. 

They do play some music, I thought this week’s hilight was Here Comes Your Man by The Pixies.

Today I'm mainly having a Nick Lowe retrospective by listening to his rather wonderful albums 'Dig My Mood' and 'The Convincer'.  Not a duff track on either, and several contenders for the 'fave song' thread.
