Glasgow Scum

Those of you that know me are aware that I have a voracious appetite for music. I've played in bands, worked for bands and been listening to the good the bad and the downright awful for a long, long time now.

Ever since I bought my very first single (Slade's "Skweeze Me Pleeze Me" for the interested among you) I've been searching out new music. It's led me on a wonderful journey and left me with and continues to present me with incredible experiences.

You've probably all heard me bitching and whining about how so and so is the worst thing I've ever heard blahblahblah but never, and I mean NEVER, has a piece of music driven me to turn off the listening device I was currently using in order not to listen to anything at all, due to what I had just heard being too awful to take in while listening to anything else that followed it...UNTIL NOW !

Step Forward Flood aka Glasgow Scum

For those of you with either an adventurous nature or a cast iron constitution, follow the above link to said "artistes" page at Channel4 Radio, scroll to the bottom of the page and listen to the track "Hell Is Only A Word"...all I can say is..."No it's not mate, it's this piece of "music" you have visited on a poor unsuspecting world"...

Oh the horror...

ooOO Slade eh! well, who else but the 70's version of TWS?

You know what mine was anyhow.

Now, did you read "Flood"'s bio/blog? A whopping 2 years experience in the "music making and producing" arena... my my.... I think he rushed it. He's been listening to Hard House, Hard Trance and Hard Dance....

Hard of Hearing more like it.

No doubt just another spotty drugged up failure... Oh well, never mind then.

I appreciate all that but did you listen to it ???

It literally stopped me in my tracks I was so shocked.

I had to have a moments silence once it was over

I'm not sure "listen" is the correct verb, but lets not get into that....

Yes, I did.

I didnt get to the end, for obvious reasons...... like not having half a pound of skag to jam into my veins to take away the pain.

Oh, and thanks for the comment on my blog and the lyrics for "A World of Hurt"..... it's not been off the ipod since and I've almost lost my deep seated dislike for steel guitars.
