Friends, Romans, Metalheads, lend me your ears!

*Note - the show might start a little late today as I have a work engagement at noon gmt, which could run over, but I'll go long a bit at the back so you get the full 2 hours*

I have returned from Bloodstock Festival so this show will be packed with some of the best music from and my personal views on this legendary annual occurrence. There's also a killer Triple Triumph from listener Mikey as well as chat with the audience.

See you at 1300 GMT/0800 EST/1400 CET on Metal World Radio.

There's no Metal Empire on Metal World Radio. tomorrow as I'll be travelling to tread the hallowed ground of the mighty Bloodstock Festival.

Friends like Unleash The Archers and IGNEA will be playing, alongside some longtime favourites such as Grand Magus, The Night Flight Orchestra and Rotting Christ. Needless to say, I am Get Hype.

Some of my listeners have said they'll be there this weekend too, so if you want to say hello, you know the face to look out for. Well, maybe not, it's a radio show, so good luck I guess.

Well, well, well, if it isn't your old mucker Beardy McNerdface ready to mete out many metric soni-tonnes of metal right into your music receptors. Join me and the community for some of the finest tunes there are, a cheeky wee gig review of Calva Louise's show at the legendary King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, a Triple Triumph (one song, three versions, you pick the winner) and more nonesensical waffle that you can shake an air-fryer at.

Tune in to Metal World Radio at 1300 GMT/0800 EST/1400 CET for another positivity pulsing, if somewhat sleepy, show.

The fates have decreed that something very important to me can now only be done tomorrow. Thus I must regrettably cancel tomorrow's show. I'll be back soon though!

My sincere apologies and thank you for understanding,

Donning our Brocas Helms we charge headlong into a horde of zombie music and pay homage to Metallica's most controversial album of all. There's great banter with the chatroom regulars and slightly less coughing than there's been recently, thank the Ruinous Powers.

In this episode I was struck low with the lurgy, so I apologise for my bunged-up voice and scatter brain. Nevertheless, my dedication to you, the citizens of the Metal Empire, is unfailing and I still presented a slam-bang show of superlative heavy music, banter with the audience and a Triple Triumph by listener Nath.

I'm very sorry to say I've pretty much lost my voice. While it would be amusing to honk my way through a show sounding like a goose, I have so much voice acting/audiobook narration work on that it would be professionally reckless not to let it recover during this busy period.

My sincere apologies, and I'll see you all as soon as possible.
