This is the only sort of mash up I will accept…

Nope, but I'm sure AF seeing Devin Townsend...Anyone else seeing Ghost later this year?
This is only metal adjacent, but a good slab of the catalogue of John Zorn's Tzadik label is on various streaming platforms for the first time. Includes releases from metal bands such as Cleric and the first Kayo Dot album, and also stuff with members of Mr Bungle, Secret Chiefs 3, Imperial Triumphant (and heaps of great jazz players, if that's your thing)
Not much Naked City on there yet that I can see, but hopefully more stuff will start appearing soon.
This offers a good look into the heavier end of the Zorn wormhole:
'He Made the World Bigger': Inside John Zorn's Jazz-Metal Multiverse
For more than 30 years, the maverick composer John Zorn has been splicing elements of jazz and metal, fostering a vast hybrid scene.www.rollingstone.com
Anyone headed to Archspire tomorrow night at the corner?
Gutless in a couple of weeks, 2/3rds of Pungent Stench in December and of course Obituary in January. May go see Blind Guardian pending what setlist is like. I'm a fan from the debut through to Nightfall.
Nightfall is an incredible album.
I saw Pungent Stench in the early 2000s. Good fun
PetroDragonic Apocalypse, I am enjoying this.
I think* it is similar to this, although I wouldn't know, I've only listened to a couple other tracks of theirs.Infest The Rats Nest.
I have a few DJ mates who do Sunday sessions at my city local. One of them had a T-shirt with the caption Lizard lizard and the lizard lizard.I think* it is similar to this, although I wouldn't know, I've only listened to a couple other tracks of theirs.
Got told listen to Gila Monster, wasn't expecting the riffage, going back for more of the whole album now.
Still trying to work out if I'm partial to them based on the name...my band name idea was 'Lyzyrd Gyzyrd' but I never had a band lol
*Justin Hawkins and Anthony Fantano vids mentioned this as comparison
Next year is looking good for live shows.
Got tickets to Blind Guardian, Obituary and Carcass, might grab for Caligula’s Horse in April too.
Also, not metal, but I’m looking forward to seeing The Necks.
Think I’ll pass on Maiden, and Mr Bungle/Melvins tickets are insanely priced (IMO) so will skip them (I think I’m away then anyway).
Hopefully I’ll catch Alarum next time they play, missed the last one. Mournful Congregation are playing Oz shows next year but no Melb date announced that I can see.
Anything else of note coming up? I find it hard to keep track of upcoming gigs, I usually only find out when bands I follow on socials post about tours.
got Bungle/Melvins tickets. Mark of Cain in Jan.
Was looking at Suffocation/Revocation but thinking might go to Russian Circles instead.
