NO ENCORE
TOP 5 METAL FOR THE MASSES ft. Craig Fitzpatrick
Throw those horns up high, it's time to rock out.
And who better to be leading the ferocious charge this week than former co-host Craig Fitzpatrick, as he returns to school Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam Shanahan in the finest, most commercially palatable metal songs to ever be released.
And if that's simply not enough NO ENCORE for you, over on our Patreon feed you can find our latest Film Club episode where Dave and Andy carefully place Damien Chazelle's box office bomb Babylon under their proverbial microscope. Bonfire of the vanities or overlooked secret masterpiece? Sign up now to hear the boys attempt to make sense of it all.
Next up on the Patreon feed this coming Monday, Adam will be chatting about the current state of the Irish music industry as Album Club takes a well-deserved break. Tune in for interviews with industry professionals across a number of disciplines to hear what the feeling is on the ground, what their hopes are for the future and what could be improved.
You can sign up to the NO ENCORE Patreon now for a full year and get a whole month free, so get amongst it!
But for now, it's time to dust off that Slayer t-shirt that never quite did fit right...
ACT ONE (5:25): It's been a whole five years since David Guetta ended racism forever, Thom Yorke finally breaks his silence on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Swedish House Mafia collab with AI to make their way into an Irish MEP's letter to the European Commission, the Bono Box bursts open once more as he sits down with Joe Rogan for a three-hour epic, Pusha T slams Kanye, Haim address their place in the 'rock community', Fyre Festival is back yet again, and we pay tribute to Simpsons composer Alf Clausen in the wake of his passing – it's the news.
ACT TWO (56:39): Top 5 Metal for the Masses.
