“I’m 90% certain I heard Jo Wiley on the radio enthusing over Fear Innoculum (the track) when it came out, which would have been on Radio 2 since I think that’s where Jo Wiley lives now.”
That’s quite a lot of intensity for poor Radio 2’s listeners!
The biggest chunk of my listening over the last couple years has been all the stuff I’ve been writing – I’ve got about two album’s worth of stuff written on acoustic bass, recorded on my iphone (back by the noise of three small children), 30-50% of the lyrics and melodies written and now I just need to fire up the proper bass and FX, and call my drummer on the red telephone! Oh and singer stuff… So that’s very niche! 😉 I hold Tool responsible for the number of time signatures in some of the songs…
