Between us, we created a bit of a buzz last night. Plenty of ground was covered and the requests we played were simply outstanding.
Here’s the playlist.
The Classic Rock Show playlist 22nd May 2014
Thanks again for tuning into the show. Don’t forget that next week we’re running the final part in our series of shows celebrating all that was the 1970s. More info can be found here.
Looking back at this playlist (see below) some days after last week’s show, I gotta hand it to you guys and girls, you really have exceptional music taste. We played some terrific music…chosen by you, dear listener!
“Southern Gothic Fuzz from Transylvania County” is how they describe themselves and I got to talk with Anders Manga of Bloody Hammers about it.
Our conversation took place shortly after it was announced they’d be playing Download Festival 2014. We talked about the band’s line-up, musical influences, an invitation from Phil Anselmo to play at his festival and the fact that they’ll soon be bringing their unique brand of Goth Rock to European shores soon.
This all coincides with the release of their upcoming album ‘Under Satan’s Sun’ which follows once more the dark paths populated by sinister characters and spectral apparitions. Dark Occult Rock with a pinch of H.P. Lovecraft and Ray Bradbury is the main attraction of the show, when the master of ceremonies Anders Manga opens the gates to the nether world.”Under Satan’s Sun” is a multilayered album that resembles a classic horror flick from the 70s. An album filled with charm, big refrains and a classy atmosphere.
Bloody Hammers have just released a new video which has a bit of a background story to it. It’s based upon a true event which happened in the county many years ago, involving a husband and wife who were on the run from the authorities. Anders talks us through the story, a story which has become part of local folklore.
Great to see so many requests in ahead of the show…and what quality they are too!
Along with your chosen tuneage, we’ve received new material from Uriah Heep, Mastodon, Linkin Park, Avenged Sevenfold and Die So Fluid (we’ll be interviewing DSF’s Grog soon!) which we’ll be playing on the show as well.
As if that’s not enough, playlisted for the show are Gillan, MILL.ION, Heaven & Earth, Bloody Hammers, Krokus, Steppenwolf, Deep Purple, Genesis, Clutch and Gary Moore.
‘The Classic Rock Show’ is back with another three hours of playing what you wanna hear; your requests and a whole lot more great sounding music on Thursday night from 7pm (UK time).
