Lawnmower Deth Let Slip The Snails Of War

 Many years ago I picked up a split LP which immediately drew my attention. One one side you had UK hardcore oddballs Metal Duck - a band who allegedly never managed to play a single show where all 4 members showed up - and on the other side, Nottingham thrashers Lawnmower Deth.

 It has to be said that LD had a creative take on thrash metal, eschewing songs about war, politics and Satan in favour of catchy ditties about err..lawnmowers, vomiting and whatever the hell Umph Umlah was about.  Naturally I loved it and I've had a soft spot for them ever since. 

 (Just a thought: when the big names of the UK thrash scene  - Onslaught and Sabbat - suddenly self-destructed there was a brief period when Lawnmower Deth may have been  the UK's biggest thrash band. Feel free to confirm or deny this. Besides, how many metal bands managed to get Kim frigging Wilde to collaborate on a Christmas single? I'm sure that proves something.)


Anyway, much to my delight Lawnmower Deth have returned to action with a new song and a video which really needs more attention.  


Ladies and gentlemen, Boys and Girls and Lawnmower lovers of all ages, may I share with you:

THE METAL PROJECT: B IS FOR BLACK

 

The Metal Project

 Good evening and welcome to another long overdue edition of The Metal Project.


Holy Crap, I've been doing this since  2012!

I've had jobs that didn't last that long.  

Anyway, as we continue to move through the alphabet we arrive at one of the most metal letters there is: 

B standing for Blood, Black, Blitzkrieg, Butcher and ...errr...Budgie.

Enjoy.
