CATCHING UP WITH THE BOYS BEFORE THEIR DEBUT ANNIVERSARY EP SHOW

28/02/2020

**** NEW MUSIC SPOTLIGHT ***

LAST ALIBI
Are a band who were put onto us by a recommendation we saw on a post on a well known Scottish Metallica tribute page and it simply stated
"YOU GOTTA HEAR THIS GUY SING, YOU GOTTA HEAR THIS BAND PLAY"

Folks - They weren't wrong - KAPOW!
We got to see these superb troubadours do their thang in Audio Glasgow last Friday night where we also got a chance to talk to the lands for a more indepth look at the band and their plans, you can see what the fellas had to say in the vinterview below, so we won't give too much away... but my oh my - WHAT A BAND.

The show was part of the bands 1 year anniversary from the release of the début self titled 4 track EP and team MBOR were ecstatic to have been invited along. We were thoroughly looked after not only by the boys but the bands new manager Fee McKernon from rockexcess management and publicly state our heartfelt thanks for that.

LAST ALIBI as an act are everything you want in a live performance, they are everything you expect, you wanna expect and then find your self shocked at the level of expectancy you set was too low, Last Alibi deliver In Aces!

Hailing from Glasow, the boys...

Jamie Ramage - Vox
Andy 'Paws' Christie - Licks n Riffs
Allen Bell - Bass
Callum Flint - Stix

Are setting their sights higher and further now they have a solid bass from which to launch from and if the Rock/Metal Gods are looking down , surely these lads will be thrust down the road of Rockness and well deserved acclaim that they surely deserve.

You can see for yourself and keep right upto date with everything LA by simply searching Lost Alibi here on FB

You can stream LA's debut EP across all major services including Teletext and Ceefax but predominantly here on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2iQBXohXoMNrrP2ylueP3o?si=JYU0jz_yQm6aCS244AsYcA

And you can watch LA's new music video for the single Generation Dead on YT here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZfJk7nPBdg

We here at MBOR will be watching closely to the bands progress with fervour and when we hear first of anything LA you'll hear it here folks!

LIVE MUSIC SPOTLIGHT SPECIAL

AFTER THE END
Are Scotlands newest and brightest non tribute tribute band to one of Rock/Metals biggest if not it's biggest ever band BLACK SABBATH. Rather than describe themselves as a Tribute band the boys stated simply "We are disciples of Sabbaths Ozzy era".

The boys newly formed In 2018 with a couple of gigs under their belt are making a 2nd début of sorts in that they are unleashing a new OZZY tonight in Glasgow namely one Brian Drummond, Brian along with

Malko Kyle - Geezer
Rob Devine - Bill
and
Craig Buchanan - Tony

are playing Audio tonight as part of the bill for Last Alibis début EP anniversary gig. MBOR managed to catch a word with 3 of the disciples before their gig and you can watch the Vinterview below, so we won't give too much away. Needless to say the boys are working hard at wanting to become and cement their place as the UKs premier Sabbath act and on the evidence of tonights performance MBOR have no doubt that this fine collaboration of satanic miscreants WILL be up there in a very short space of time.

You can judge for yourselves just how good the fellas are by catching them at their next show in Glasgow where they will be supporting the excellent Scopyons, Scorpions tribute act, at Glasgows Hard Rock Cafe Friday April 10.

You can keep upto date with After The End right here on FB by simply searching After The End and ofcourse we here will be keeping you well informed of the bands future ventures & news.

MBOR

Ps We've no idea where the Polish Cannibal Co**se fan came from either in the Vinterview however I guess it must be down to our interview location... downstairs outside the toilet of a busy Glasgow pub! 🤣🤘

Horns Up!

**** NEW MUSIC SPOTLIGHT ARTIST OF THE WEEK *****
This week on the show we will be playing 2 top tracks from a band we know personally, And they are SOUL REMOVER. Hailing from Kirkintilloch just NE of Glasgow, a town steeped in Scottish Rock history the long time school friends namely...

THE WHEEL - Guitars & Vocals
SCOTTY - Guitars
JIMMY - Bass
joined ably by SEAN on drums

decided in 2010 to put their own creative stamp on the local music scene. And what a stamp they have indeed left.
Having released 2 EP's Buried Alive and the Live Heads you Live, Tails you loose as well as 3 singles the band are currently on a hiatus from live gigging and are looking to further increase their small but superb recorded cannon to date.

Not only are these boys superbly talented but they are as Ronnie Biggs once said " A Bunch of 'Olesome Blokes"

All of their recorded work can be downloaded from Spotify for free ( See! Didn't we tell you they were nice )

And whilst we await the next live gigs, It's time to get yourselves acquainted with... The MIGHTY Soul Remover.
