“It’s all the same…only the names will change…” Sometimes, just like with “identical” twins, identifying the differences between subgenres can be difficult. Sure, they may seem the same, but there are subtle differences between the two that make them unique as individuals. Similarly, as with the “speed metal vs thrash metal” debate which has persis…

“That’s NOT how you eat a chili dog…” The allure of SHOCK ROCK is, has been, and always will be the LIVE component of it; being at the show and viscerally experiencing all of the sights and sounds, in the flesh and in the moment.

It’s time to learn about the healthiest, most productive way to release “all of your aggressions” fueled by “road rage” and crank the volume all the way up to LOUD to indulge in metal that comes shrink wrapped “pre-LOUD” from the factory. Remember that sometimes “it’s a little gamey and a little tangy” which is why it’s always a good idea to “dip ‘…

Final albums are often last grasps at fame and money, but on occasion they serve as a fitting capstone to a band’s career. On today’s show we explore two final albums that we think send these legendary artists off on a good note.

For most SLAYER fans, Tuesday, September 11, 2001, began as every other new music release day would: we all anxiously anticipated stopping by the record store after work to pick up a copy of their brand-new album, GOD HATES US ALL. Words cannot describe the eerily psychotic synchronicity that seemingly linked the atrocities of that day with the tim…

“I’m just letting you know; I was holding back…it may get worse…” TITLE TRACKS are not always the ultra-obvious, one trick pony they’d seem to be. Sometimes it IS ultra-obvious and is smack dab in the middle of the chorus where it belongs, sometimes only one of the words might be included in the chorus, and still other times “the chorus is not expl…

Many worthy records never receive the recognition they deserve. Promotion, timing and accessibility often get in the way of great art finding its way to the people that might appreciate it the most.

“You can take something so pretty and make it so ugly…” It’s been a while since we discussed any NWOOSTM, so we figured we’d check out one of the NWOOSTM playlist recommendations from “Mr. PB&J” himself. (NOTE: that’s New Wave Of Old School Thrash Metal in case you’re not into acronyms). THRASHING LIKE A MANIAC (which you can find on Amazon music),…

“If Bruce Dickinson wants more cowbell, we should probably give him more cowbell…” You’ve heard of movies based on books, but what about albums based on books? IRON MAIDEN’s seventh studio album, SEVENTH SON OF A SEVENTH SON, released on April 11, 1988, is inspired by Orson Scott Card’s 1987 novel “Seventh Son” and is their first official “keyboard…

We got a little out of control and went far beyond the “appetizers” section, to the point that there was no “meat” to skip to (in terms of a docket), primarily because we had a lot to talk about: albums ahead of their time, new Olympic competitions, and a whole host of other things (including our potential 9/11 Head-To-Head Death Match teaser…). Be…

“Do you know how many burps I edit out?” EXODUS have been blessed with the almost uncanny gift of delivering absolutely devastating opening tracks on every album they’ve ever done.* There’s simply nothing like the “violently articulate” manifestations of Gary Holt’s riff wizardry to fuel the intensity of how blisteringly killer the opener (not to m…

Hopefully by now, everyone is familiar with those first three notes from the first Black Sabbath album. During The Middle Ages, this was referred to as DIABOLOUS IN MUSICA (which is Latin, meaning “The Devil In Music”). While also known as “The Devil’s Interval”, or in musical parlance simply as the tritone, SLAYER fans recognize DIABOLOUS IN MUSIC…

Imagine being in a record store, just flipping through the LED ZEPPELIN section of albums on November 8, 1971, and finding an album that appeared unfamiliar, mysterious, and perhaps even a bit out of place. The album cover gave no reference as to the band’s name or any discernible album title, the back cover had no track listing, there were no pict…

With a title like Blood Sugar Sex Magik, you might expect the music to be graphic, loud and a little weird – and you wouldn’t be wrong.

Often in life you have to “strike while the iron is hot” because more often than not, the “First Strike Is Deadly” and not striking may result in lost opportunity and success.

1991 was a year unlike any other. KFC changed their name to avoid paying royalties to the “trademarked” commonwealth for which they were named (whereas K-Y Jelly could not be reached for comment), Terminator 2: Judgment Day was blowing up the box office as the number one movie in America, the first ever “world wide web” website was introduced to th…

May 17, 2024, marks the day that KERRY KING released the diabolically brutal debut, FROM HELL I RISE, forging a new chapter in thrash metal.

Not only is BILLY MILANO a blessing and “a bold, courageous man”, he’s also the mastermind behind M.O.D. (METHOD OF DESTRUCTION), the crossover thrash patriots that emerged following the end of S.O.D. with a similar sense of politically incorrect humor, biting social commentary, and a more hardcore infused thrash sound than S.O.D. (Stormtroopers of…

May 3, 1988, may just be the biggest, red-letter, landmark date in all of progressive metal, as it marks the release of QUEENSRYCHE’s 3rd studio album OPERATION: MINDCRIME, one of the finest concept albums in all of metal. It’s very much a “Pink Floyd meets heavy metal” style and vibe, and is quite a departure from their two previous albums (The Wa…

Stevie Wonder had a pretty amazing stretch of albums during the early 1970s. One of our favorites from the period is 1973’s Innervisions.

Summary: AC/DC’s follow-up to Back In Black, 1981’s FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK (WE SALUTE YOU), seems to have a heavier, darker, and doomier vibe than its legendary, multi-platinum predecessor. FTATR (WSY) is all about dynamics, as Robert John “Mutt” Lange’s production masterfully blends the sounds of Highway To Hell & Back In Black with just a touch …
