The Cultcast Podcast Articles: My Royal Blood Experience By Nathan Campion

thecultcastpodcast@gmail.com (The Cultcast Podcast) — Mon, 14 Jul 2014 15:04:00 -0700

For the unlucky unaware ones, these two men are Ben Thatcher (The bearded one with a hat) and Mike Kerr (The bearded one without a hat). They are the sole memebers of the fanastic duo Royal Blood. Their self-titled debut(which you can pre-ordered here) will be released on the 22nd of August and I’m going to tell you why you need to buy it!

I thankfully got to see the pair perform at Marlay Park recently. With Miles Kane, Jake Bugg and The Arctic Monkeys also on the bill, the boys had tough competition. Playing a humble set comprised of seven songs, they managed to win the crowd over from the first beat. They brought an amazing energy to the stage, no tricks, no gimmicks, just a bass, drums and an amazing voice. The band

started with a song on the B-Side of their Little Monster Single called Hole. The song quickly got our heads banging as Mike played a instantly catchy Eb Mixolydian riff(music nerds will get what I’m saying). This song alone won me over.

Their stage presence also needs a mention here. They really seemed like two friends just rocking out and enjoying playing with each other (unlike some other artists on this bill who didn’t even make eye contact with their fellow bandmates).

We also see that Mike is no slouch on bass. The riff in Come On Over is very reminiscent of some of the best Muse riffs and must be quite difficult to play while singing, Mike does this flawlessly and does it all with just one hand! Thankfully Ben’s drumming perfectly compliments Mike’s bass playing. He uses fairly simple beats to the best effect and manages to throw in some interesting fills when necessary. He doesn’t make things overly fancy but that’s fine, what he’s doing is perfect for the songs the band makes.

Finally the round it off I’m going to leave you with a song, it’s their lead single Out Of The Black

The Cultcast Podcast Articles: Glitches, Rope Ascenders and One Very Frustrated Man by Luke Spencer

thecultcastpodcast@gmail.com (The Cultcast Podcast) — Mon, 14 Jul 2014 13:11:00 -0700

Do you know what really grinds my gears? game breaking glitches, you know, glitches that hinder your further progression in a game, glitches that cause you to rip your hair out and shout in frustration. I have come across a glitch like this in my playthrough of Tomb Raider, the recent reboot of the iconic franchise.

Before I continue may I say that I really enjoyed the game until this point. Its adventure, depicting the origins of Lara Croft, a harrowing story of a young woman thrown into the depths of survival, is masterfully told. The combat keeps you on edge and the environmental puzzles make you really think outside the box. This game really was impressing me. Until I came across the most frustrating, teeth-grinding glitch I have ever been subjected to.

After a zip line across to a boat, I skilfully killed a boss, using my newly acquired napalm arrows. His defeat led to another new acquirement, the rope ascender. When I got my hands on this, a rapid succession of thoughts crossed my mind. I remembered all the tombs I could now open with this new piece of kit. All I had to do was save my teammate and get off of this shipwreck. Glancing at a nearby crane, I saw what I had to do to progress. A shot from by bow at the dangling crates, straddled by ropes and suspended by the crane, would hurl it in my direction and crash it into the obstacle which was blocking my path. It was simple, child’s play. I shot and missed on my first attempt, but on my second attempt I hit my target and then proceeded to mash the x button to drag these crates to do what they were meant to. But upon my initial mashing, the crates didn’t move, the crane had, but the crates were left suspended in mid-air. I laughed to myself, “Oh glitches, when will you ever learn” and continued to reload the last save. But to my horror and disbelief, when I attempted to hurl the crates towards me again the
exact same thing occurred. This cycle went on for what seemed like hours. In this time I did everything I could think of to counter-attack this glitch, cleaning the disc, turning the Xbox off and on again, nothing, nada. This glitch was impervious to everything. After a quick google search I found out that I was the only person who came across the glitch. For a moment I began to believe that I was in some sort of dream but no, the glitch was real.

And because of this glitch I will never know the splendour of the tombs I could have explored, I will never experience any twist or turn in the game, any emotional points in the narrative. This glitch has ruined this game for me.

I could have started the game all over again and replay the 12 hours I already had devoted to this game, and see if the glitch would still occur. But fuck that noise.
