 Wyrd Ways Rock Show 24th December 2017 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 7306

It's the last Wyrd Ways Rock Show of 2017... or certainly the last one before the traditional Yuletide Behemoth, anyway. Despite the fact that this is, effective a Christmas show, I'll only inflict one Christmas tune on you. It's one you'll like. I promise. What else do we have for you? Well, the last Record Of The Week is a bit of a cracker, then there's loads of other stuff, including Nick from Nuclear Blast having a bit of a chinwag with Robb Flynn of Machine Head. Who says I never get you anything nice? What are you waiting for? Press Play and turn it up LOUD!

The countdown to Christmas now begins in earnest. Just to show I'm not a total Scrooge, I've included the full sweary version of Lawnmower Deth's collaboration with Kim Wilde. There's also a fond farewell to Triaxis, new stuff from all over the place and... well... I'm not going to tell you who gets Record Of The Week. You'll just have to listen to the show when you've finished downloading it, or it arrives in your Inbox (if you're a Sponsor or on the mailing list). Turn it all the way up!

So here we are spinning rapidly towards the end of another year. 2017 is almost over, but The Wyrd Ways Rock Show is celebrating the dying embers of this year with another slab of quality Metal. Not only do we have new stuff from such luminaries as Machine Head, Electric Wizard and Almanac, we've got Skarlett Riot snapping up Record Of The Week with a serious slab of quality called Regenerate and a celebration of His Infernal Majesty himself, Ville Valo, as he hangs up his mascara and puts H.I.M to bed for the last time. Loads of other good stuff too. What are you waiting for? Press Play and turn it up LOUD!

You’ll also get to find out what this week’s Record Of The Week is and experience new material from Savage Messiah, Diablo Swing Orchestra, LA Guns (yes, you did read that correctly!) and the latest news from Download at Donington.

Did you catch the Hallowe'en Special a few days ago? If you didn't, click on the link for the last show for a couple of hours of spooky Metal (and a little silliness), including the likes of Dr Stein, The Monster Mash, Her Ghost In The Fog and Welcome To My Nightmare. For this week's show, David's making his debut appearance as co-presenter with his very own feature, The 7 Year Old's Guide To Awesome Metal. There's also contributions of new stuff from the reformed Madam X, Italian Folksters, Elvenking, friends of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show and rising stars, Skarlett Riot and a very decent splurge of German Power Metal pioneers, Helloween. Incidentally, you can also stream us on Soundcloud, Mixcloud and the TuneIn radio app. Just go to their homepages and search for The Wyrd Ways Rock Show.

I will admit that I did have moments of doubting that this edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show would ever see the light of day. The inspiration for getting it finished and uploaded was, at least in part, Primordial Radio. It was their launch party in York on 30th September. Going to that event (before crippling social anxiety meant we left early) reminded me why I do this. Rock and Metal is hideously poorly served by the mass media. The stereotypical image of us is that of a knuckle-dragging Neanderthal. We all know that nothing could be further from the truth, but why let the truth get in the way of a good stereotype? Anyway, I’ve been letting the show slip for a while. Tracking back, it probably goes back to when my level of medication was increased. I’m experimenting with dropping it and I seem to have retrieved a little of my drive to do things. I know this probably should have been a blog post, but you who take the time to listen to the show deserve to know what’s going on and why I’ve been so bloody useless at getting these things done over the last couple of years. Incidentally, you can also stream us on Soundcloud, Mixcloud and the TuneIn radio app. Just go to their homepages and search for The Wyrd Ways Rock Show.

You have to admit this is better. Hasn't been a month this time! Anyway... this week's Wyrd Ways Rock Show is a packed show yet again. Then again, isn't it always? Rammed to the gunwhales with brand new music, including stuff from Alestorm, Iced Earth, Venom Inc, Helstar and Rex Brown... Yes, THAT Rex Brown! Not only that, but there's also THREE tracks from the brand new album by the Italian Metal maestros, Arthemis. Play it LOUD!

I know, I know... another long gap. But the best laid plans, and so on... Anyway. Loads of new stuff, as usual, as well as a Cover version and some not new stuff. Shall we get on with it?

 Wyrd Ways Rock Show 25th May 2017 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 8355

Been a while, hasn't it? To be brutally honest, I've just not been in the mood recently. Better no show than a shoddy one, I think. I'd rather not put out a show at all rather than a poorly made one with no feeling to it. Anyway. Since the last show, we've lost Chris Cornell to depression. So that's who this show is dedicated to: the memory of the voice of Soundgarden and Audioslave and anyone currently fighting depression.

Did you enjoy the Thrash Hour? There's going to be more of those coming, probably once a month, mixing old and new. I've also got the rest of the WWRS team working on their own specialist areas, so you can expect Power Metal, Prog and Punk hours. Good, eh? Now then... as to this week's show, there's new stuff from Blaze Bayley, Body Count and Ex Deo, plus lots of other stuff. Download it and PLAY IT LOUD.

Back in the saddle for another two hour (nearly) blast of the best in Metal from all over the world. By that I mean bands from Canada, Finland, Germany, the US, Italy, Sweden and right here in the UK. A veritable United Nations of arse-kicking, neck-cracking tunes. Want to know which ones in particular, and what they sound like? Click the link. You know you want to.

More Metal than you can shake a stick at in this edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show! Take a look below at the playlist if you want to find out how full of Metal the next two hours or so (depending on how quickly you download the show) are going to be. Amid the mayhem, though, there is a sad bit. This edition marks the final contribution of Dr Jim "IronLord" Waterman. He's decided that it's time to move on. May the winds take you where you will, Jim. There's always a place by the hearth waiting for you at WWRS.
