Our good friend Richard Lomax aka Granfalloon released his new song yesterday called "Who You Are" which is part of a upcoming album called "Positive Songs". Throughout lockdown he challenged himself to write a full album channelling positive vibes.
Richard has supported Nice Peter in the UK numerous times over the years and always been very supportive of ERB. So check out his new video above and send him some love.
Happy Fourth Of July!
We have a brand new quiz for you all! And because we weren't able to do a quiz whilst working on the Ragnar vs Richard battle we have whole list of prizes on offer!
There will be nine separate prize winners. To enter just go to:

Rewind Time! In the last round Diego Maradona vs Tom Brady scored the win with a chunky 25% of the vote. It's always been a fun match-up that hopefully will happen one day. In second place was Yugi Muto vs Bobby Fischer with 20% of the vote.

On Sunday we held this months chat session over on the Discord server. Here is a quick overview about what was discussed.
We began with 'Happy Fathers Day" messages. Best wishes to all fathers out there and all the cool fathers who are no longer with us. And of course the "Allfather" Lloyd Lodbrok.
We then offered a HUGE thanks to all patrons who submitted lyric ideas for the Ragnar vs Richard battle. "We had so many great submissions and ideas from you. Your lyrics are pepper...
2021-06-22 15:47:02 +0000 UTC View PostWe really enjoyed working with Rise Of Kingdoms on the latest battle. Their game features a huge amount of historical character and we got to choose the specific pairing of "Ragnar Lodbrok vs Richard I". But, we did consider a whole host of other characters before settling on that combination.
We thought it would be cool to get your thoughts on some of the other characters in the game in case we ever want to link up with Rise Of Kingdoms in the future. So, we've picked five of the...

Here's a rough demo Lloyd put together about a week before we filmed, which features a mixture of lyrics that made it into the final battle and a bunch of ideas that ended up being cut.
Note: there are no Richard lyrics on this demo so in those sections it's just instrumental. The two actual Ragnar verses can be found between 0.49 - 1.30 and 2.10 - 2.40.
BTW we just published a new poll. Go vote here: 2021-06-21 15:10:26 +0000 UTC View Post
Lloyd and Pete have compiled a little video highlighting some lyrics which didn't make it into the final video. Check it out above. :)
And here is a list of those lines (and others) for you to check out...
I’ll trample MC’s like Leopold’s banners,
My chivalry leads me to teach you some manners.

As always - you can only vote for one. So pick carefully! :)
Rewind Time! In the last round Mary Poppins vs Beetlejuice romped home to victory with a surprising 35% of the vote. It's a fun idea for sure. Not too far behind in second place was Henry VIII vs John F. Kennedy with 25% of the vote.

Two weeks ago Peter and Lloyd met up in person for the first time in 2021. (It's been a year full of video calls up to that point) But they sat down together and started cranking out lyrics for future battles.
That same day we had an opportunity pop up that got us all excited. We were contacted by a company asking if we would be interested in partnering with them to create a new ERB video.
And now we can let you know that we are gonna do it. :)
