Jake's Inferno

Still in awe of Gary Numan's gig here in town yesterday, what a legend. On this month's playlist there's a healthy of dose of more or less everything - punk, hard rock, thrash, stoner rock, hip hop, black metal and a quartet of Muswell Hillbillies.

After a day of decadence (and reading Sami Yaffa's great autobiography "The Road Bends") I give you yet another episode in the continuing saga of the Inferno! On the playlist you'll find some punk, thrash, garage, hard rock and alternative.  Hope you dig it.

Back with a mix of old and new music (mainly old truth be told) and as always there's a wide span in terms of genres. On this month's playlist you'll find some punk, garage, death metal, hard rock, alternative and a fine little number from the 50's.

Saddened by the news of Mark Lanegan's death. He had a truly unique voice and I've spent many hours blasting it from speakers since 1995, when "Whiskey For the Holy Ghost" made its way into my collection. His music is featured on this episode as well as some punk, alternative, thrash and hard rock.  

Sippin' on a Thundermother beer (good stuff!) while the wind is howling and the outside temperature is dropping. On the playlist this time around you can expect some punk, hard rock, alternative, soul, grindcore and garage. Enjoy!

New year, same procedure. I'll poke around in my record collection, pick a dozen (or so) tracks and spin them. Sometimes there's a theme, more often there isn't. I just love a good tune whatever the genre may be. On the first playlist in 2022 you'll find some punk, alternative, hip-hop, thrash, death metal, hard rock and my favorite crooner.

Ah yes, time for my top ten countdown of the best albums released this year! Fairly wild mix of genres, but then again, that's how pretty much every damn episode of the Inferno is assembled... Hopefully some of YOUR favorite records made the list. I'll be back in 2022.  

Off to London in a couple of weeks, not planning to see any gigs this time around though. But I do hope to visit some record stores and bring home more stuff to spin on future episodes of the Inferno. Speaking of spinning, on the playlist this month you'll find some punk, stoner rock, country, hard rock, rockabilly, ska and alternative. Dig in!

The weekend is here! What better way to celebrate than to hear a brand new Inferno (truth be told, quite a few I'd imagine). New music, old music and a nice chunk from the 90's is what I have to offer this time around. Enjoy!

Back at work and autumn's just around the corner, but I finally got to see a gig in 2021! Lows and highs in other words. On the playlist this month you'll find some punk, death metal, country, hardcore and hard rock. You do know that I post all of them at jakesinferno.blogspot.com, right?  

Back from a killer week on the beautiful island Öland. Put some grubby clothes in the washing machine and started making this episode. On the playlist you'll find some garage, thrash, country, hard rock, alternative and glam. Thanks for your continued support! 

First week off has been a so-so affair in terms of weather, but sleeping in is a nice thing, the pandemic is making less headlines and the European championship in football has had tons of great moments. Less talk, more action - on this show you'll hear some punk, alternative, rap, thrash, country funk, hard rock and garage. 

Summer's just around the corner in this part of the world, and what better way to celebrate that than sticking all your vinyl into protected sleeves! Plenty of less nerdy things to do I guess, but I must admit that it's been very satisfying. No ripped vinyl on this episode of the Inferno but plenty of punk, hard rock, thrash, sleaze, alternative, rap and country funk. 

New month, new show, new music! Well, three of the bands have new stuff out at least. Treat your ears to some punk, blues, alternative, hard rock, stoner rock, power pop and metal. And if you live in an area where live music is making a comeback, get your shot and go see bands!

April is here and I've lined up a fine show with some punk, death metal, southern rock, Americana, Brit pop and hard rock on the playlist. Been buying tickets to see bands in the summer and fall, but who the hell knows whether they'll be able to do the gigs? Damn you virus!

Oh boy, for some reason I'm particular pleased with this episode. Can't put my finger on why and I'll let you be the judge dear listener. On the playlist there's punk, soul, thrash, stoner rock, hard rock, country, alternative and death metal. Enjoy!

A little late, but winter has finally arrived to this part of the world and what better way to spend an evening than indoors with a fresh bottle of Tamnavulin recording a podcast? Possibly indoors listening to that same show with a drink of your choice within reach. On the playlist you'll find some punk, soul, alternative, hard rock, death metal and doom. 

New year, same old setup. Each month I'll flip through my weird and wonderful music collection, pick out a dozen tracks or so and wham! bam! we're in business. On this episode there's some punk, sleaze, swing, garage, thrash, alternative and stoner rock on the playlist. Hope you keep listening in 2021!

It's that time of year again! No, not Christmas, but my top ten countdown of the best albums released in 2020. In terms of genres represented it might be the most diverse yet, but trust me, it's not a gimmick. I've thought long and hard about what records made the biggest impact on me this year and here they are. Enjoy! 

A mixed affair as usual on the Inferno! Australian punk, American sleaze, Danish thrash and British metal walk hand in hand through paradise lost. With this episode out there for all to enjoy I'll retreat into the shadows and watch season 3 of "Marcella".
