The Shane Oliver Experience That's Not Canon Productions

CW = Addiction/ Depression / Suicide
The latest episode involves the legends Matt and Nick from Buckled who have just dropped a ridiculously good album and are about to tour with No Fun at All (Shoutout to Emetic Art for the great work on the cover art). We talked about what went in to the process of getting the album together, the state of the music scene currently and some general chit chat about life. The biggest talking point from this episode is about Addiction (based off their single Addict) and how much of a stranglehold it can have on your life, how it affects you day to day and in extreme cases; people you know and love can be taken away from addiction. (I talk about my own experience, not for recognition but for normality) In a world full of ridiculous struggle right now, it's so imperative to look out for one another and build strong and healthy communities for all of us to not only overcome these demons, but to be done with compassion and understanding.

The second venture over to WA involves hardcore legends End it All. With a new release coming out really soon we sat down for a chat through zoom and got to know the guys, their backstory and what's next on the agenda now that shows are really starting to hit their stride. You also get a sneak peak of a new track at the end of this episode so listen through, or don't and just listen to the song, either way hype up End it All and get them over to the East Coast. Be sure to check their tunes out and buy threads through the legend at Loudmouth Records also.

Joining me on this installment is Liam and Seras of Hell's Horizon. As per usual we get on to tangents but we ultimately talk back on the origins of the band, how long the process has been to play shows, transitioning in uncertain times, what's next for the band and much more. Recording is happening in the near future and expect a few more shows to round out the year.

A week after their show with Hadal Maw at The Outpost Bar, Pip and I managed a catch up at his recording studio to talk about everything that went down. As well as playing in two bands on the night, organising shows with interstaters is back on the cards and recordings booked months in advance for his studio, it's inspiring to see the love for it all still shine through and most importantly, seeing it all come together on the night. There's new Resin Tomb and Snorlax material happening, more Descent shows lining up and if you have any projects needing some magic, Brendan is your dude for it.

The last time these two were on, Adam was promoting Vestige's 2nd release? and Tegan was on promoting At The Drive Pin and From the Floor Up festival, which coincidentally over a year later is finally going ahead (cheers pandemic!) We get to plugging the upcoming Diploid weekender shows, the ridiculous festival weekender FTFU starting at The Junk Bar, arriving at The Triffid and finishing off at Vinnies Dive with bands like Rage, Masochist, Blind Girls, Outright, Salt Money, Apparitions, Shackles and loads more. New cassette releases are on the way (so keen for Lies In Ashes) and vinyl is coming back into the Teamglasses stable. This was a fun chat and a great catch up with two beautiful human beings who love music enough to put these incredible shows on for everyone to enjoy.

This was purely a zoom call for logistical reasons as Andy is based in WA, he's the current honcho of loudmouth and crosscheck. We talk about upbringing, what got the label going, how it's been going balls deep in a short amount of time and a bunch more random stuff. He's got loads of artists signed already and heaps more planned for the year, including a fundraiser in the near future so make sure to check out his website and all of his platforms to keep up to date with what's next from someone who is absolutely in it for all the right reasons.
