A pillarbox in Brimsdown, Enfield for this week's #PostBoxSaturday 📮
Deathfiend were fiendish and deathlike tonight. Bringing the gloomy doom, narly death metal with a full stuffed crust. 👊 #CrustPunk #DeathMetal
Well that was a very pleasant afternoon spent in Barnsbury Wood, making mindful bead fidget toys and wellbeing bresthwork exercises. #Wellbeing
This afternoon i shall be up in Barnsbury Wood, N1 1BW for their open day. I shall be promoting @thepeelclerkenwell.bsky.social activities and offering some mindful wellbeing tips.
Hexorcist - Crucificial Imprecations Channeling that early Florida death metal sound with razor sharp guitar, guttural vocals, thunderous drumming and proper scariness thru sonic cacophony. Out 31st July: godzovwarproductions.bandcamp.com/album/crucif... #MetalSky #DeathMetal
Heretic Cult Redeemer - In Oculum Chaos I like the angular direction changes that sets this apart from the Black Metal pack. Yes, its fierce, ferocious and growly. The time signatures keep me intrigued. Out now: hereticcultredeemer.bandcamp.com/album/in-ocu... #MetalSky #BlackMetal #DeathMetal
Enjoyed a walk through Mayfair, Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens to the Elfin Oak.
A pair of pillarboxes in Perivale either side of the Western Avenue #PostBoxSaturday
Off to help set up the @thepeelclerkenwell.bsky.social Street Party. Come join us for fun, food & frolics.
Time for some Here & Now. 🎶This time, I wont take no for an answer.🎶 #NowPlaying
Brach, over from Germany on a long weekender trek, blasting away the blues. Loving the chugga chugga breakdowns and frenzied wipeouts. Awesome stuff. brach-krach.bandcamp.com/album/plasti... #Hardcore
Every Face Becomes a Skull were an intense screamathon, even on such a hot Sunday afternoon! Marvellous stuff. efbas.bandcamp.com/album/every-... #Hardcore
Tethered played a storming set at Calamity Tank. A right whirlwind of a show. tether-ed.bandcamp.com/album/tethered #Hardcore
I wandered over Wanstead Flats earlier, and got to visit and tick off Woodgrange Park station.
Afternoon hardcore this arvo. With Tethered, Brach and Every Face Becomes a Skull. #Hardcore
A hefty beast on Caledonian Road recently before i set up my stall at CallyFest #PostBoxSaturday
Well that was a lot of fun for a Monday evening. In the audience for a recording of Just a Minute.
Taking the teen, and chum to Hyde Park later to listen in. Sitting outside the arena with the hoi polloi.
Here we find Caramel in her natural habitat of the savannah grasslands of South London. #Caturday
I snapped this Edward 7th pillarbox outside Canonbury station last week. Happy #PostBoxSaturday
Apogean - Waste Where Life Begins Fantastic mid paced chugga- chugga Death Metal peppered with frantic drumming & screeching guitar leads and breakdowns (to catch breath). Final track is a belter. More of this please. Out now: apogean.bandcamp.com/album/waste-... #MetalSky #DeathMetal
Tsar Stangra - Hymns of the Broken Worlds This has the strangled orc styled vocals of Black Metal, its paired with what I feel is a more Power Metal romp at times. Bulgarian Canadians adding cultural folk elements makes an interesting listen. Out now: tsarstangra.bandcamp.com/album/--6 #MetalSky
My bag's packed, and off to Cally Fest this morning. @thepeelclerkenwell.bsky.social has a stall in the Calm Zone (Freeling Street). Come find us for some wellbeing tips, and info on all that The Peel offers.
