Rycopse

Very excited to play this one with some amazing bands 🖤

Getting back to basics...

Hypothetically, if you broke a very specific cymbal you've had less than a year because you are a heavy handed idiot, where would you, personally, get one that doesn't break the bank these days? Hypothetically

Happy birthday!

Here's an important morning question for you...

What's more frustrating in the morning?

Spreadable butter that isn't spreadable, or going to take a sip of a hot drink only to realise there's nothing left?

Go and pop @copsebm.bsky.social a follow you lovely lot

We will have some merch on sale later today for all your Christmas needs, because who doesn't like band merch for Christmas, right!?

It's no secret I practiced blastbeats for the first copse recording to the Natasha Bedingfield album, take my high praise.

On my third run through of @hiddenmothers.bsky.social new album.

Dead good.

For fans of TLC, Natasha Bedingfield, Huey Lewis and Taproot.

Never played drums in my life

Weirdly, that's my Pokémon name!

Here's my review of the new @hiddenmothers.bsky.social album

Heavy bits are heavy, melodic bits are melodic, can't understand a word, artwork looks nice, awful people, 13/7

(Obviously joking... no one rates an album out of 7, other bits may or may not be true, either way, listen to it)

Is it true Lars carried out the ban?

As a drummer, I've always enjoyed playing in Scotland and hoped to get there again with Copse. Unless I do a tom and kick set not sure I'll get the chance now...

(On a serious note, this is an amazing ban, well done Scotland 🙏🏻, lets hope others follow)

Wish Astronoid would hurry up and put a new record out.

"the sweet ain't as sweet without the sour", tough is good! Ultimately it's your creative output, if you're happy with it that's what matters, but I can tell you now... If you're happy, us listeners are going to be.

And again, personally, I'd much rather listen to that being expressed than "dear Tracy's mom"

I think, personally, if you have a voice to be heard and it's something you are passionate about, do it. Sadly, it'll always remain relevant in some way, look at RATM, as important and prominent now as they were 20 years ago, if not more so. I don't think it's cliche, I think it's empowering.

If it's something people can relate to (and it really is in the current climate) then it's only a good thing for the artist and the listener. Relatable/interpretable art is the one.

Thank you so much dude, that means a lot! 🖤

That's my secret, Gary, I'm always angry/sad

Work playlist for the afternoon is strong...
