    S3 E24 - Indomita 'Initials'

    Continuing on their South American journey, Bryn and Jaff pick a Chilean Viognier to quench their thirst in the inferno that is the UK this week... Bruce Dickinson shares some wisdom, KISS waste $200 million, Gwar continue their mission to dismember every public figure on the planet....and there's rather a lot of interruptions by passing planes... On the release front, from D12 to Mork...there's guaranteed to be some releases to pique your interest this week!

    S3 E23 -Tesoro / Volcanes

    The sunny coasts of Portugal are a distant memory as Jake returns to set Bryn and Jaff off on their new journey to South America, kicking off with a trip to Chile and Argentina! A man makes money selling CD's, the summer has arrived and brought a veritable feast of Doctor Dave's with it, Jaff talks about a rather large swimming pool and Bryn gives the low down on Download.... Due to Bryn's festival exploits, there are a few less albums to chat about this week....but Jaff has brought some absolute rippers, including a stunning return from German black-metallers Fyrnask!

    S3 E22 - The Sardine Submarine

    As they approach the end of their Portuguese journey, Bryn and Jaff find themselves on a distinctly fishy submarine... Ginger Wildheart shows off his eloquent way with words, Jaff uses fashion to solve the international haulage problem, Bruce Dickinson takes joy in the machinery of war, and Bryn mourns his 26 year old rucksack. Converge are back again with their second album this year, Oh Hiroshima have created something quite incredible with their latest release, and Jaff has stumbled upon an incredible blackgaze record from Swedish outfit Together To The Stars.

    S3 E21 - 200 Gallons

    The Portuguese journey continues as Bryn and Jaff return to the world of red wine with an Alicante Bouchet...and Jaff provides some interesting facts about prohibition. Cult Of Luna get naked, Jaff falls into a verbal diarrhoea wormhole, Bryn plays with Butterflies, Steven Bartlett annoys everyone and Mark Morton has a wholesome new hobby! There's a new album from the wonderful mind of Devin Townsend, Jaff raves about the new Elder record and Bryn may have found his album of the year.....

    S3 E20 - Rain Do Mar

    As Bryn battles the inferno of British weather, Jaff comes to his aid with some Portuguese white wine...but does it stand up to the recent track record of high scoring bottles.... Should Ozzy be turning in his grave? Iron Maiden blow the dust off an old classic, A notorious alcoholic headlines an alcohol free festival....and Jaff shows off his love of cheese... We have French black metal, Swiss post-metal, some rather good death metal from Ireland...and Tommy Lee desperately tries to polish a steamer from 2005.

    As they stroll through northwestern Portugal, Bryn and Jaff grab a bottle of Vinho Verde and realise they've been missing out something quite remarkable!! Federico is back at the keys, a 70 year old man goes bald, Geezer Butler wins the award for 'most heart-warming story' and Jaff encourages a pensioner to get into a Cannibal Corpse pit...

    Bryn and Jaff are left to their own devices as they begin their Portuguese journey...and they seem to have stumbled upon something really quite special!! Nicko gets a bit camp, David Ellefson draws the usual gold comments from the internet, Bryn's children eat a shed and Jaff learns all about a port called muff....just a normal week at Tasting Notes HQ... And, on the musical front, the one and only Social Distortion are back after 15 years, Darkthrone continue whatever it is that they're doing, there's two releases that really push the boundaries of sanity and even old Neil Diamond gets a mention....

    It's "Au Revoir" France and "Olá" Portugal, as Jake (our resident wine expert) returns to set Bryn and Jaff off on their new journey. Between the blue wine and the monstrously large Portuguese bottle, there's a lot to dive in to!! Aquatic French bus drivers, David Attenborough's Lego woes, mismatched touring partners, Jaff gives his Incineration breakdown, Bryn smells Devin Townsend's ears....and Tom Araya bellows at some drivers... From Slovakia to Germany, with a few stops off in Ireland and Los Angeles....it's a veritable whirlwind of new music this week! Plenty for you to get you to get stuck into!!
