  • EP288: The Scariest Songs of All Time
    Oct 27 2024
    What’s a good horror movie without a terrifying score? A simple Google search will show you that The Shining can be marketed as a romantic comedy with the right music. Our Halloween episode has Mike, Rod & Glenn talking through the songs that have scared them the most throughout their lives. Don’t listen in the dark.

  • EP287: Peter Murphy "Deep"
    Oct 20 2024

    This is the third episode we’ve dedicated to the Bauhaus frontman’s solo work but only the second album we’ve discussed (we inexplicably recorded two episodes about his sophomore LP “Love Hysteria”). Both are chock full of excellent songwriting and of course Murphy’s chill-inducing baritone but they are not without their flaws and some definitive signs of carbon dating. We discuss.

  • EP286: NOFX "Punk in Drublic"
    Oct 13 2024
    With the LA punk institution NOFX recently calling it a career, we look back at their breakthrough 1994 release and discuss whether it’s a pop punk classic or a steaming pile of crap. Maybe it’s both. Recommended Listening

  • EP285BS: Black Sabbath "13"
    Oct 6 2024
    Ozzy is back and not a second too soon. We wrap our Sabbath Series with their 2013 reunion LP. The album saw the return of two thirds of the original quartet and while drummer Bill Ward is certainly missed, the magic that Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler had way back when things all began in 1970 is absolutely still very much in tact. The atmosphere, the riffs, the wonderful doom and gloom are all present. In short, Black Sabbath is Black Sabbath again.

  • EP284: J. Robbins "Basilisk"
    Sep 29 2024
    J. Robbins legacy in the punk/indie rock world was cemented years ago. As the driving creative force behind Jawbox, Burning Airlines, Channels and Office of Future Plans as well as the producer of some of the best records of the early aughts including classics by Jets to Brazil, The Dismemberment Plans, Shiner and The Promise Ring, he has left an indelible mark on the guitar-driven rock of the past thirty+ years. His second solo outing leans more heavily into keyboards than he ever has before but the results are no less impactful. The record is eleven songs of exactly the musical quality and lyrical smarts that we have all come to expect from the man. Recommended Listening

  • EP283BS: Black Sabbath "Forbidden"
    Sep 22 2024
    The penultimate episode of our Black Sabbath series and the last before we get to return to the soothing voice of Ozzy Osbourne. Geezer Butler has again departed and as we have learned, that means a significant dip in quality. It does nothing to diminish the legacy of the Birmingham greats as their legacy was cemented decades prior to this albums release, but it is fair to say that our conversation about Forbidden is better than listening to the album itself.

  • EP282: Chat Pile "God's Country"
    Sep 15 2024

    Mike introduces the boys to one of his favorite records of 2022, a light listen through topics ranging from homelessness, drug addiction and serial killers. The album closes with suicidal thoughts prompted by a beloved McDonald’s mascot and the episode was appropriately recorded on Friday the 13th which happens to be the subject of track three “Pamela” which imagines what Mrs. Vorhees life might of been like prior to the death of her son Jason. Enjoy!

  • EP281: Against Me! "New Wave"
    Sep 8 2024
    Glenn hosts our lively conversation about the Naples Florida punk band’s major label debut. The hooks are big and the messages are clear (maybe too clear) but how does this breakthrough LP hold up almost twenty years after its release? We discuss.
