Welsh musician & radio presenter Neil Crud has joined the ranks at Louder Than War Radio with his new two-hour, Monday night show. Neil left Tundo FM before the pandemic hit, sadly the pandemic lead to the stations closure. He continued to push music from his home with a one hour show during the pandemic.

The North Wales punk keeps himself busy with his band Spam Javelin, and tirelessly attending gig after gig like a revolutionary Welsh warrior to watch and review some of the best bands on the live circuit. His work ethic, love and support of Welsh bands and music which he loves of all genres is second to none. A fantastic addition for the Louder Than War team.

Louder Than War! Is the brain child of music journalist and The Membranes front man John Robb.

You can catch Neil Cruds show on Mondays ten till midnight on Louder Than War Radio. Download the app today.

Holy Coves member Jason Hughes surprised everyone last month with the release of his debut solo album Sit Down. Jason wrote, recorded, mixed and mastered all of this fantastic record himself at his home studio in Manchester.

Jason has previously made records with Welsh band Holy Coves in 2008 and 2012, working with Welsh producer David Wrench. He has just finished recording the third Holy Coves record titled Druids & Bards and all the while still managed to find the time to craft this piece of genius.
For a debut record this really is the perfect start. Right from the opening track Sit Down sucks you in and takes you on a wonderful train journey across Wales and Manchester to meet Joy division. It has a serious tone and yet still has a humorous feel to it. Like a dark comedy that still manages to make you cry, it is deep, energetic and the production is beautifully layered.
You have The Welsh Ian Curtis! There you go I said it. It really is that good. Go and listen to Sit Down by The PainKillers today.
Available across all streaming services and BandCamp
