206 - Hell Bent for Riot Act 2! The LBBTQ+ Guide to Eurovision

Riot Act

Welcome to a very special episode of Riot Act, the alternative music podcast. This week we are delighted to once again team up with our good friends Tom Dare and Matt Rushton from the excellent Hell Bent For Metal Podcast, for the finest crossover since... er... Suicidal Tendencies. We warm up by chatting about new music in over two decades from Botch, the sad passing of former Cradle of Filth guitarist Stuart Anstis, and looking at new albums from Soilwork, Ether Coven and *sigh*... Muse. Before getting into the real reason we've teamed up; for Steve and Tom to talk the much more youthful Matt through some of the highlights of the longest running televised music contest in history, The Eurovision Song Contest. Expect high camp drama, a Terry Wogan love in, some bizarre stage costumes, some of the finest pop music in history and one of the hottest takes on ABBA you are ever likely to hear in your life!
