  • SERIOUSLY FUNNY EP #05 - Today's episode I talk with Alan Averill, lead vocalist of Ireland's premiere heavy metal band Primordial. Primordial are one of heavy metals most original bands. Huge majestic soundscapes, imbibed with Alan's vocals both passionate and violent. Songs dealing with Ireland's often tragic past and what could be the modern worlds tragic future. BE WARNED, The beginning may be a little arduous if you don't want to listen to a couple of old blokes harping on about metal, but if gets into juicier territory as the podcasts goes on. Enjoy!

    Great interview, being a 53 year old Irishman from Wexford I can draw so many parallels with Alan, going to Dublin in the 80's to the Sound Cellar to buy records and McGonagles and Bruxelles, good times... still a full on metalhead to this day.

    You toured with and drummed for Primordial? That's so fucking awesome! Speaking of tour, when's *your* next Australian tour? Whenever it is, don't neglect to come up north, even if it's "hot as fucking shit!" Love you, mate! Tour dates, please!! 👍

    If anyone wants a better snare sound than St.Anger, Bathory - Octagon is the tits!

    Alan is quite an articulate speaker (for an Irishman, ha!) so is always enjoyable to listen to.

    "I probably could but it's that head on her..."
    Made me legitimately laugh out loud!! 😆
    Great interview (more of an intimate chat, really).
    Alan's reasons for choosing "liberty" over "freedom" are valid, too. Freedom is entirely subjective... You want to be free? Free to, or free from? You want to be free to play Cannibal Corpse on full volume at 4am, while your neighbours want to be free from having to hear it.

  • @misanthrophex

    34:10 that's so right, and that's mainly the reason why I don't consider myself a metalhead anymore. Today is just narcissism and just focus on making a product, everyone seems so technically anal. By far too many bands with nothing to say and too many bands in general.
    Talking about Neurosis, I did a mistake of taking acid before going to see them, that was a difficult evening haha...
    I got to the end of this talk, even though I'm not that much into metal anymore, listening to people reminiscing about the old days does caress me with nostalgia.

    I'm in a band since 2002, we've played one gig outside Ireland and only have 2 albums. I guess I have to consider the band surviving that long it's greatest success.

  • @HarleyThrottleJuice
    @HarleyThrottleJuice 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Yeah, plenty of good moments in Metallica’s stuff on their albums since the early 90’s… but no good full albums, in my opinion.

    • @SteveHughesOfficial
      @SteveHughesOfficial  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Nope no good full ones…..shame really. Cheers for watching.

    ...I was 7 in '99
    Jesus fuckin wept.
    STEVEN! I am so glad that you are in what seems to be a much better place than when I saw you in Melbourne in 2015 during the Melbourne comedy festival (I could be off a few years there)
    Me and my mates came up to say g'day after the show, and after you guessed we were in a prog metal band (I wish), we went on our merry way, cheeks still sore from laughing our asses off, (not laughing on the inside) from the only show we wanted to catch at the festival that year
    I still to this day use your metaphor surrounding depression, and seeing your take on depression helped me claw my way tooth and nail to the other side of my own fray with the black dog. So I wanted to say thank you for showing me it was ok to talk about that shite.
    Loving the podcasts sir, Hope to see you on stage again soon. Take care of yourself man🤟🤟🤟

    • @SteveHughesOfficial
      @SteveHughesOfficial  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thanks for the comment man. Yeah the black dog is indeed a mongrel. Glad you got through his vice like grip. Stay strong brother…Hail.

      @SteveHughesOfficial  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      He is still in Sweden. I was in contact with him a year ago and he vanished again…bummer. I like him. Great bloke. Cheers for tuning in…

      I've been following your comedy too since early on. Glad to see you back in full swing brother. Missed you there for a while. Horns UP!🤘

    Steve can you ask Justin Hawkins from the Darkness to come on? It would be hilarious.

    • @SteveHughesOfficial
      @SteveHughesOfficial  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That could be interesting. I don’t know much about his band. But he is quite the character.
