Description

Welcome to another episode of Riot Act, your dose of weekly news and opinions from the alternative music world. Steve and Remfry have a mixed bag to sort through this week, the most pressing being the tragic, sudden and far too soon passing of Foo Fighters iconic drummer Taylor Hawkins and Talons violinist Sam Little. RIP to both men. 
We also review a batch of new albums and live shows, ruling the roost over the latest releases from Carpenter Brut, Dream Widow, Denzel Curry and GGGOLDDD, and giving you the highlights of recent live performances from Madness, Liam Gallagher, The Ruins of Beverast and some young lad called Ed Sheeran. Plus we round up the rest of the week's news, did you know that Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the… you did… okay, just checking.

If you’re here then we’d like to assume you are a music fan with impeccable taste, and appreciate the job we’re trying to do in promoting the very best in alternative music. Both Stephen and Remfry (that’s us) have written and spoken millions of words about our favourite bands in everything from The Independent and The Guardian to Metal Hammer and Team Rock Radio, and beyond. We have dedicated large chunks of our lives to passionately promoting our favourite music, but never has there been an outlet that offers us the opportunity to rep for all the many genres of alternative music that we adore. Until now. Whether you are a fan of brutal death metal or wistful singer songwriters, three chord punk rock or sprawling prog epics, we believe that music in all of its forms deserves to be celebrated. So we started Riot Act to do exactly that. This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy
