...is 1987 the greatest year in Heavy Metal history?

The enshittification of your life (part 1)

I learnt a new word: 'enshittification', stage 1 is attraction, stage 2 is abuse and stage 3 is extraction....how platforms lure people in and slowly once they have audience capture and people rely on them begin turning the screw and abusing users, I take this word and run with it into the brick wall of the music industry and culture at large. A continuation of the theme.....why nothing feels the same anymore....are we just creating a society that is a playground for the rich? the show is looking for sponsors....if you think this is something you are interested in, get in touch Alan.averill@gmail.com follow me nemtheanga_primordial primordial_official on the gram support the show over at : https://patreon.com/AlanAverill the band in add number one : DEAMONOLITH youtube.com/@deamonolith [http://youtube.com/@deamonolith] facebook.com/DEAMONOLITH [http://facebook.com/DEAMONOLITH] instagram.com/deamonolith_official_pl [http://instagram.com/deamonolith_official_pl] the band and label in add two : Buy Online - Achetez en ligne: https://shop.volumebrutal.com/ [https://shop.volumebrutal.com/] Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/volumebrutalassociation/ [https://www.facebook.com/volumebrutalassociation/] Primordial on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQ For info on my work as a booking agent go to: https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficial or email alan@dragon-productions.com Primordial cds/lps available from https://www.metalblade.com/primordial/ death metal VERMINOUS SERPENT https://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTA doom DREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXA goth APRILMEN https://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast [http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

The free speech principle

Today's podcast is a collaboration with Shayan from Iblis Manifestations/Trivax. During this years Inferno festival we got together to do an independent talk entitled 'The free speech principle' at Kniven bar. Despite harbouring an absolutely brutal hangover which is entirely my fault....we got through it and mulled over what free speech really means in the metal scene these days....do people really believe in the principle or just consider it either a helpful thing to stand but not mean or a dog whistle to the extreme....find out it's also a video up on my Youtube channel https://youtu.be/oQYwX1GQ2ak the show is looking for sponsors....if you think this is something you are interested in, get in touch Alan.averill@gmail.com follow me nemtheanga_primordial primordial_official on the gram support the show over at : https://patreon.com/AlanAverill Primordial on Spotify YES THERE'S A NEW Primordial LIVE ALBUM OUT !! https://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQ For info on my work as a booking agent go to: https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficial or email alan@dragon-productions.com Primordial cds/lps available from https://www.metalblade.com/primordial/ death metal VERMINOUS SERPENT https://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTA doom DREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXA goth APRILMEN https://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast [http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Turns out the new saviours of rock n' roll were just a marketing psyop

Geese.....yep.....Geese who were being touted as the new saviours of rock n' roll by the Guardian newspaper only a month or two ago have turned out to be more or less a marketing psyop created by a brand strategy company called Chaotic Good, Today I go over the story and ask, is it really surprising in 2026 that this is the way a rock band would get relative success in the mainstream....I dig into the claims of engineered narrative, burner accounts, fabricated comments and fake interactions.... the show is looking for sponsors....if you think this is something you are interested in, get in touch Alan.averill@gmail.com follow me nemtheanga_primordial primordial_official on the gram support the show over at : https://patreon.com/AlanAverill Primordial on Spotify YES THERE'S A NEW Primordial LIVE ALBUM OUT !! https://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQ sponsored by Metal Blade records https://metalblade.indiemerch.com/ promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your order ships worldwide For info on my work as a booking agent go to: https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficial or email alan@dragon-productions.com Primordial cds/lps available from https://www.metalblade.com/primordial/ death metal VERMINOUS SERPENT https://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTA doom DREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXA goth APRILMEN https://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast [http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast]. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
