EP2 - Another Day, Another Riot by Toasted Heretic To Here Knows When - Great Irish Albums Revisited
-
- Music History
Audience Warning: This episode contains references to child sexual abuse.
Released in 1992, Another Day, Another Riot was Toasted Heretic’s third album. It was released by Liquid Records, a subsidiary of Solid Records.
Toasted Heretic were from Galway and they preceded Another Day, Another Riot with two cassette-only albums, Songs For Swinging Celibates (1988) and Charm and Arrogance (1989). These albums were followed in 1990 by The SMUG EP, which included ‘They Didn’t Teach Music In My School’ a song about child sex abuse in Ireland. Toasted Heretic’s cassettes were distributed through book and record shops and via mailorder – a cottage industry both physically and geographically outside the Irish Music Industry.
Toasted Heretic were: Julian Gough on vocals, Declan Collins and Breffni O'Rourke on guitars, Neil Farrell on drums and Aengus McMahon on bass. Q magazine once declared them, “powerful articulate and original”, while Mother Records described them as - too original.
In this episode I discuss the album with Toast Heretic’s singer and lyricist Julian Gough. Our conversation includes a chat about all of Toasted Heretic’s recordings, a discussion about the nature of fame, and the oddity of looking back and re-evaluating art. A novelist, Julian resides in Berlin and is also the author of the successful children’s book series, Rabbit & Bear. Episode notes are here.
