Welcome to the Napalm Death house… 

He used to visit Cats Protection when i worked there .

My life would have been a lot darker and less interesting without Shane and the Napalm lads along with all the side projects they've variously done. I still remember Scum coming out and still play it almost weekly though my neck muscles can no longer get through it. If Shane by chance ever reads this: a massive thanks to you!

Used to tape trade with Shane in the mid 80s before he was in Napalm. Great guy.

I love when Shane mentions that sometimes he just goes and sits and does some thinking, which is as important as doing. I just get that very much, and it's pretty awesome to hear Shane say that.

What a legend. Love the house, the memories.

Shane and Napalm Death are legends!

I'm one minute in and already I hear Shane talk about pear and apple trees in a jolly manner. Things I have not guessed before starting this interview.

I got to see Napalm Death at The Channel in Boston for their Grindcore Tour (Harmony Corruption) w/ Godflesh. At the end of the show, my buddy and I got to meet Shane. No backstage or VIP pass needed. He came right out into the crowd and signed the tape insert foldout of their tape for us. Getting to see him play that bass and Mick Harris pummeling those blast beats was absolutely mind-blowing for the time. Hey Shane - thanks for taking the time for a piss ant little metal head!

Nice TEST shirt!

Great to see this after reading about that house several times in the book i just finished 👍🏼👍🏼

0:45 - great to see the "Metalmania" DVD on the shelf of Napalm House :) I gave it to Shane at The Peel in Kingston-upon-Thames on October 21, 2006, during European Smear Campaign. Great to know that Shane didn't put it in the bin but still keeps it, really :) The DVD contains, among others, the video footage of 3 songs by Napalm Death + interview with Barney recorded at Metalmania Festival in Poland in 2005. This is HQ multi-angle recording.

Brujeria's hat!!!!❤

Absolute Pommy Rock legend. Him, Iommi and Lemmy!

Greed Killing is one of my favorite albums

Saw ND open for Sepultura in Dallas in 1991 on the New Titans on the Block tour. Absolutely brilliant f'ing show. I'll never forget it as long as I live.

"It was in the 90's so,you know,we were going out partying every night.", yep that sums up the 90's pretty well,thank you for all your music Shane :)

I could listen to these stories for hours... 🔥

Was a young metalhead in Brum at that time. Bumped into Shane in some of the places he mentioned. Always friendly, always cool. Happy times.

Fascinating, but not once did he mention going orienteering with Stewart Lee! 😉👍🇬🇧

I've seen him with his missus in IKEA pushing the trolley about.

Great guy, great band. One of the best out of Birmingham

Ah this made my day. Lovely bloke.

Shane rocking a Test t-shirt! (insane grind duo from Brazil)

Loving the massively expensive Michael Gira collection book casually perched on some PS4 games. Love Shane

I recall seeing Shane a few times in Gosta Green pub called Old Union Mill. Just up from Sack of Potatoes and Pot of Beer. Nice guy. I worked behind bar.

Ran into Shane at the Carcass reunion Tour when they played at the LA House Of Blues. Such a great show and I discovered Aborted at that gig. We saw Shane in the crowd and bumped into him at the Bar. Such a cool, down to earth dude.

Wow, really love their open-mindedness to other forms of music!

Excellent video! Always a great pleasure to chat with him! Thanks for sharing this with us!

Spoke to him briefly at a MDF, cool 😎 dude

Seems like a very good egg. Would happily buy him a pint and just listen to stories. My old mate Tom Goober know's the guys, made a video or two for them.

I read his book which I really enjoyed. I would like a nice hour doucumentary of this. Great stuff, such a humble guy.

I remember seeing Shane at a Jane's Addiction gig with Primus as support early 90's... Great night.

Never knew he was a big Godzilla fan. Cool

I used to work in Costermongers and knew Shane, Mitch and Jessie well. TOP LADS! Great times. I’m “Irish Tom” Shane if you ever fancy catching up! 🍻

Thank You Shane!!!

sounds like they've had a good life just playing music and going to shows

Even though I’m a fair bit younger than him (I’m 41) it’s interesting how much nostalgia there is in this for me-if forgot how many venues in Birmingham had changed names / changed hands over the years…

Brilliant thanks 🤟🏽

I had the chance to play with Napalm years ago, Shane was an awesome real person but Barney on the other hand was a "expletive deleted".

This was fascinating and well shot. Cheers all involved.

4:45 amazing.

I really enjoyed that!

Wow, it's a small world. I am old friends with Gary, Mike and Jimmy from "Eye Hate God," because we all grew up in the New Orleans area. I am actually wearing an "Eye Hate God," t-shirt that Gary gave me. I wonder if the fellas know that there's a big "Eye Hate God," banner hanging on a wall in the "Napalm Death" House?

Ordered my copy yesterday, can’t wait for it to arrive.

Couldn't help thinking of the Paul Whitehouse "I was very, very drunk!" character throughout - half expected him to say it @ the end 😂

I met him in Stratford. He's a really nice bloke.

Absolute legend

I'm coming over

Great interview, random question but what’s the history with that clock that we can see behind you? I am from the West Midlands and have had one very similar in my family since the 80’s! 👍🏻🎵

What a dude.

Test t-shirt! Avant-garde grind/death duo from São Paulo!

He should be proud.. Hell of a life 🍻🤘🏻

legend😘

f*kin everyone was obsessed with daleks in 1977. I could never afford one.

good dude

🤟B R U J E R I A 🤟

Where can I get that Test shirt?

Saw him n dino outside of Harpo's around 92 or 93???

And still looking healthier than Bill Steer. Legend.

Stewart Lee let him self go.

'I thought I'd killed him....but I didn't'

Wow name checking the Cardiacs- the most cult of cult bands- every time you meet someone else who know Cardiacs that will immediately be the conversation for 10 minutes 😂

I wonder why there are no refugees living in his house.

I used to live like that, then I grew up.

Ì always find guys like this can just never move on and grow up

Why was I expecting shrunken heads and Baphomet statues?

E a peita do Test

Never heard of them.

gasping for air just talking.. yikes

Ozzy vibes

this is why its cute when americans do british accents
