    Episode 76 - Wax and Witches

    This episodes headline act is a chat with Rick McMurray, drummer from Northern Ireland legends Ash talking about his side project "Burned As Witches" and the self titled album which releases on the 17th April. Burned As Witches lands in the briefest of interludes from his day job in Ash, who've basically been working non-stop since the releases of 'Race The Night' in 2023 and the current 'Ad Astra' album. As Rick says, “if you're expecting some slices of powerpunkpop then think again” as Burned As Witches positively drips with big riffs , brilliant solos and beefy chord crunchings.  This is intense, on all levels.  Burned As Witches started as a way to deal with the untimely passing of Ash's long term live agent, friend and rock'n'roll hellraiser Steve Strange in 2021. Inspired by The Strange One's love of metal - this record was conceived in mourning and is all about the doom, full of chunky riffs and weighty themes. Rest very much unassured, Burned As Witches is an out and out rock album. The support act for the chat with Rick is a run through of Record Store Day 2026 which is on 18th April . We talk about key releases and how to prepare for the day. And finally we have a review of Gorillaz recent gig in Belfast which Terry attended. Thanks for listening.
