First of all thanks for all the cool messages about tonight’s show. You guys rule!
I’m ultra happy that so many of you enjoyed the interview with Peter Wichers and all the Soilwork tracks. This album is absolutely fantastic
As you heard on the show I have several interviews coming up this week, from Darkane to Callenish Circle to Passenger.
If you guys want to ask any or all of the bands anything post it on the message board so that I can put them forward to the bands.
Keep well and keep safe!
On Friday April the 4th I will be talking to Peter Wichers of Soilwork and playing tracks from the band’s forthcoming album ‘Figure Number Five’.
Peter will also be answering the questions put forward by some of the listeners, including the truth behind the rumoured fight with In Flames
Well the new site layout is now online as you can see… some sections have been taken down for restructuring. Hopefully they will return soon. There are new photos in the Stars & Guests section.
We will have a The Haunted special on Friday March 14th featuring and interview with Marco and Jensen (so funny those guys!) on their recent visit to London and lots of great tracks.
Then on March 21st an interview with Brian Fair of Shadows Fall, top guy!
On another front, the website is undergoing a facelift and you will be able to see the results very soon! A million thanks to Yoda for working so hard and being so good!

Many congratulations too to the three winners of the competition. Your copy of the limited edition of An Epic Defiance will be on its way this week
Next Friday is of course Valentine’s Day but we want to keep it Sex to 9 style so if you want to request any songs or make any suggestions go to the message board and post them there or email them to me. They don’t all have to be romantic….
