Nicke Andersson’s Imperial State Electric starts proceedings off this week, followed by another band that has his involvement, namely Super$hit666. A Jerusalem Slim demo of a song that eventually surfaced on the Demolition 23 album muscles into third place with a re-record Dogs D’amour track taking up forth spot. Mrs A. approved band, Whitesnake have the first track off their new album played with a new band, well to me anyway, LostAlone following in their wake. Rainbow and Black Sabbath are sandwiched together with the question; “Which out of the two could be superproged?” Finishing the whole shebang are Denmark’s Volbeat, who still owe me a London gig.

Songs: Livin’ My Life, Circles, Gettin’ Loud!
CD: Circles
OLIVER TROLLEY
It all started in 3-bedroom apartment located in a beach side, Southern California ghetto called Del Mar. Long time friends, Kevin Childs and Brian Zanini, had just finished a bottle of Makers Mark Whiskey and decided to jam on an acoustic guitar and a piano. Despite the drunken mistakes and out of tune guitar, the boys we’re feeling the flow and the music was sounding surprisingly good. After a couple of these blurry nights, Kevin and Brian decided to take it to the next level and book studio time with their friend Brian Grider at SCM recordings.
With a set date to record and two heads full of ideas, it was time to write. The goal was to write songs that we’re sincere and easily understood. They weren’t trying to create a new genre or change the world, just write some good pop tunes. When they got in to the studio, it took about two weeks to record four songs. Three days after recording, Kevin sent a track to his friends at Gas Can Music and immediately got a response. They wanted Kevin and Brian to record two more tracks and release a six song EP off Gas Can Music. This provided all the excitement and inspiration they needed to crank out two new songs and get the ball rolling. With their new EP titled “Circles” set to release March 29th from Gas Can Music, and a full band including Adam Lopez on guitar, Alex Lopez on bass, and Brian Meyer on drums, Oliver Trolley stand ready to make a lasting impact on the Southern California music scene and beyond. Keep a lookout and expect a lot more from these boys in 2011.(from band page at Gas Can Music)

On this week’s show I talk about listening to some great music that unfortunately I can’t play, namely a new band called The Drej and a new Joey Ramone CD which hopefully will see the light of day by the Summer. So I totally disregard Simon Edwards, drummer with The Drej, request and play a track by them anyway. He’ll forgive as I have him. I do play a Joey Ramone track but one of my favourite’s from his ‘Don’t Worry About Me’ album. Prog. Yep I’m getting far too much into it for my own good, though it is good, so much so I play an obscure track, ‘Battle Scar’ by Max Webster and a track off the new Von Hertzen Brothers album ‘Stars Aligned’. From Prog to a Blues track courtesy of one time Godfather, Damned, Stiv Bator, Del Amitri and Adam Ant guitarist Kris Dollimore follows and with The New York Dolls having just released a brand new album called ‘Dancing Backwards In High Heels’ I obviously play a track from it. A new band, to me anyway (thanks Arcwright), is Against Me! Their latest album is called ‘White Crosses’ and is described by Arcwright as like “The Yo-Yo’s, The Stranglers, Toll and The Strokes.” He had me on The Yo-Yo’s. So I play a track off said album. The show rounds off with a Michael Monroe track from his 1996 album ‘Piece Of Mind’. I hoped that this particular song would make it into the band’s current set. Unfortunately it doesn’t.

Bish, bosh, straight into a Captain Sensible demo recorded for the Damned’s ‘So, Who’s Paranoid?’ CD, then it’s onto some Mother’s Children and two new Michael Monroe tracks done acoustically. It seems I then career into ‘Part 2’ of the ‘Straight Ahead Kick Ass Rock ‘n’ Roll Show’ as I play, in no particular order, The Yo-Yo’s, The Anti Nowhere League, The Nomads, Metallica, The Hydromatics and Iron Maiden. The show finishes with a track by a new Swedish act called The Royal Republic.
