Voodoo Vegas recently released their latest album called “Freak Show Candy Floss” (http://www.rockradioni.co.uk/back-stage/music-reviews/2919-ni-rocks-recommends-qfreak-show-candy-flossq-by-voodoo-vegas.html ). I’ve been a supporter of the band for a while and posted an interview with them back in June 2013, so I thought it’d be a good time to catch up with them again and have a chat about the new album and what plans the band had for the future. I spoke to singer Lawrence and guitarist Meryl via Skype on 28 November and the interview was featured on the Friday NI Rocks Show that was broadcast on Friday 2 December.
That Show was available via the On Demand Player for 8 weeks and has now been uploaded to our MixCloud page - https://www.mixcloud.com/NIRocks/interview-withe-voodoo-vegas-on-the-friday-ni-rocks-show-2nd-december-2016/
“The Last Full Measure” is the latest album from Swedish band Civil War and it was released on 4th November via Napalm records. The “Power Metal” genre can be a bit hit or miss for me personally, but I took an instant like to this album when I first checked it out. The track “Road To Victory” was included on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 18th November.

I must admit that I hadn’t heard of Scattered Hamlet until we got sent their new album “Swamp Rebel Machine” by our friends at New Ocean Media. The press release reference to “honky tonk metal” left me uncertain what to expect. However, a brief skip through the tracks was enough to convince me to give it a more in-depth listen and the more that I listened to it the more that I liked it! The album was released via Buck Moon Productions on 4th November and I played the track “Whip-Poor-Will” on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 18th November.
