Oi. At least somebody got the fucken memo. James Fogarty is my kind of guy. He realizes how fucken silly and stupid this metal thing is. Jaldaboath is the metal equivalent of The Blackadder and Monty Python, and much of the lyrics revolve around English history and folklore. Yeah, Jaldaboath are from England, the land of big fucken tits, and the last thing that this fucken band is is serious. “The Further Adventures...” is filled with the kind of silly folk metal that will appeal to fans of fucken polka bands like Finntroll, or Swashbuckle and the like with John Cleese vocals. No, for fucken reals. These vocals have that posh, uptight English thing going on. This record is just loads of fun. It makes fun of its genre without falling into fucken silly gimmickry, or going full fucken retard. This is still a fucken extreme metal record with some incredible fucken riffs, thundering bass lines and good solo’ing. They even play Jan Hammer’s famous ‘80s hit ‘Crockett’s Theme’ from Miami Vice during ‘Raise the Crummhorns’. The singer starts whistling along. Haha, super funny. Oh my fucken god. ‘Black Metal Beauty’ at least acknowledges how fucken silly and stupid black metal is. ‘Dex The Whispering Dwarf’ is a homage to Iron Maiden’s ‘The Trooper’ and it ends with the fucken theme from that 80s action series “Airwolf”. By Odin. I’m not a big fan of the drum production, but what you gonna do, right? For whatever stupid reason this band has signed with Austrian cheese factory Napalm Records, so I guess their records will be easier to find in the future. And if you think the music is too fucken silly for your expensive taste, than the lyrics will make your day. They are a fucken hoot. By Odin, whoever said metal isn’t fucken educational should take a look at this album. Holy fucken shit, dudes. Every track is about some local English myth, legend or folklore tale – all done with a lot of fucken humor, and entirely tongue-in-cheek. I’m laughing like a fucken idiot right now, cos this is exactly the type of fucken stuff I need every once in a while. Grab a beer, grope a wench, have a few laughs and bang your empty fucken head. Gorerotted was pretty fucken funny back in the day, but this... holy crap. Here’s an idea: hire some famous English model, and have her dance in your video. I don’t care whether it’s Rosie Whiteman, Bryoni-Kate Williams or Emma Twigg – that video is going to be memorable no matter how you fucken spin it. When is that next album due?
