The Core You Know

EPISODE FOURTEEN IS LIVE! Join me and Patrick Morton from Long Goodbye as we discuss Some Of Us May Never See The World by the legendary On Broken Wings, alongside moshing and Newcastle Hardcore. Available all good podcast places, link below! open.spotify.com/episode/28xQ3F…

As someone once said, good luck with the podcast. After some MH and technology struggles...I think that a few new TCYK episodes in 2026 would be pretty fun.

Just waiting on a few things to drop into place...fun things coming very soon.

And since episode 7 was a double episode I'm doing a double post! I was joined by Frazer from Cauldron and we discussed Renounced and Fightstar! There may be more double album episodes to come 👀 open.spotify.com/episode/4jHbP1…

Episode Four saw me chatting to Colin Stone, the man behind @GunGhaol about "With Roots Above And Branches Below" by @TDWPband ! We discussed the bands MySpace emergence and Colins less than traditional route into heavy music. open.spotify.com/episode/6T0Ifz…

So, what happened on the first season of The Core You Know? Well, we kicked things off with Phil from @Copsebm and @riffnchips discussing "The Opposite of December...A Season Of Separation" by Poison The Well. A strong start I reckon. open.spotify.com/episode/4vCikM…

Episode six (Yes I accidentally said the last post was four) had me talking about an utter monolith of a record. Myself and Harry from Burner discuss Jane Doe and what a discussion it was! open.spotify.com/episode/5dZt08…

This means a lot. Thank you all so very much for every listen, share, interaction. More to come very soon.

Looking back on these episodes I'm so happy with how well they've all came out. I think over the next few days I'll do a little retrospective and if you've missed out, you can go back and listen!

So hopefully you've enjoyed our season finale with Sammy from Employed To Serve...but did you check out the new album that Sammy mentions on the episode? If not, you should!

EPISODE FIFTEEN IS LIVE! Our series finale guest is the amazing @smo_rox of @employedtoserve and Renounced fame! The album? A little record called Of Malice And The Magnum Heart by Misery Signals. Available in all good podcast places. Go listen. open.spotify.com/episode/3KzhhI…

Also I get my scheduling wrong during this episode so we talk about @employedtoserve's tour that has literally just finished, so I really hope you were able to go and obviously their album came out last week, go listen to it!

Finishing editing the podcast for this week. I've decided to keep in every time I say "Oh a hundred percent" so you can take a drink every time I do and end up having a good time.

@smo_rox @employedtoserve @employedtoserve have a brand new album coming out tomorrow which you need to listen to. Sammy took time out of his incredibly busy band and label schedule to discuss a genuine GOAT metalcore band and album.

EPISODE FIFTEEN ANNOUNCEMENT! For the series finale, I'm joined by @smo_rox of @employedtoserve and the legendary Renounced. The album? Of Malice And The Magnum Heart by Misery Signals. Out 1st of May.

There may be special episodes before I start to plan for the next season when I have a functional laptop. The turnaround between recording and release will also be a LOT smaller.

The album we're talking about is, to put it simply, massive. It also makes so much sense when taking into account one of his bands.

So. On Thursday I'll be announcing the last episode in the first series. It's also the day before the guests band releases a brand new album, which is pretty fucking cool.

If you haven't listened to my latest (Or any of them, which would be a little rude) my humble podcast is gearing up for the announcement of a pretty fucking cool guest this Thursday, so get in now, don't miss out. Good folk talking 'core music. open.spotify.com/show/5GdMxv7nE…
