Multiverse Of Metal
April 19, 2024 11:00 - 1 hour - 130 MBWe have a number of pop culture interests outside our beloved genre. Our fandom in the wonderful world of comic books outdates our residency in Metaldom. Indie comic companies have been clamoring to present stories about and inspired by current Metal artists. There have been some cool crossover stories as well. Think Elvira meets Vincent Price. So we took our love of "funny books" and thought up some cool crossovers featuring our fave Metal artists. How about Misfits/Scooby Doo, Gwar/XMen a...
A Questionable Episode
April 16, 2024 22:54 - 2 hours - 205 MBRegrets, we've had a few. The biggest regrets we've had with RAM is the passing of some legendary figures before we had the chance to sit down with them. We can only imagine what questions we would have picked their brains with. So now we're doing the next best thing. We compiled a list of deceased artists and present a question we'd like to throw at them. Artists like Dee Dee Ramone, Chuck of Death and El Duce(!!). What question would you throw to your fave heavenly Headbanger. In our "Ne...
Amazing Grace
March 29, 2024 23:26 - 1 hour - 152 MBWelcome to our second installment of our Deep Dive series on all the awesome albums celebrating their 40th anniversary i.e. from '84. This week we're looking at Rush's "Grace Under Pressure". This was a divisive effort as the legendary trio shifted from 70s prog to a more 80s look and sound. This album didnt spend a lot of time on our turntables. So we enlisted the services of our resident Rush connoisseur Mark Buell. Mr. Buell plys his trade with Connect Humanity, an organization dedicated...
Pick Your Poison
March 21, 2024 23:26 - 1 hour - 154 MBHorns!! One of our special days is fast approaching! Record Store Day is a huge part of this show and our lives. The main idea behind RSD is to support your local record shop. To help getcher butts into the shops, every year there is a number of RSD exclusive releases for your listening pleasure. There is something for everyone but generally only a few titles for us. So as is annual tradition now, we hit up www.recordstoreday.com to help us decide what new records are turning our crank. Go t...
What's In A Word?
March 14, 2024 21:53 - 2 hours - 179 MBEveryone has their own way of expressing themselves. Verbally, we all have our own words and expressions. Metaldom is no exception. If anything we have more unique words in our verbal arsenal than Joe Average. Off the top of our heads, "Axe" (for guitar) comes to mind. So with that starting point, we dive into a laundry (all black, of course) list of slang descriptive words. How many of these do you use everyday? In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss the numeral "777" and we caught the ...
Reunion Confusion
March 07, 2024 17:04 - 2 hours - 189 MBYou can literally count on one hand the years the mighty Slayer have been disbanded. Now an impending reunion for multiple festival dates have been announced. Needless to say, this has Metaldom all a buzz. And of course once the announcement was made, the interwebs was flooded with misinformation causing confusion. So this week we pick our way through the mirth. Is this too soon to be an official reunion? Is is something you'd pay big bucks to see in '24? And Horns to Mrs. Arraya for being s...
Animalize (Talk Like A Beast)
March 01, 2024 23:48 - 2 hours - 175 MBAs we yacked about last episode, 1984 was an amazing year for Metaldom. A major part of that awesomeness was the incredible amount of new records that filled the new release racks. So with these albums celebrating their 40th anniversary, we decided to give some of them the deep dive treatment. KISS' "Animalize" is an album near and dear to our Metal Hearts, for different reasons. So we go over the whys and wherefores, the tracklist, the artwork, the whole She-Bang. Give this album a refresh...
'84 Is 40
February 23, 2024 09:00 - 3 hours - 262 MBHow does the time fly? 1984 was an incredible year for Metaldom. The new release racks were filled with albums that are not only all time classics now, but helped shape the Metal world as we know it today. So this week we do a deep dive into that year that was. Apart from the amazing records, there were an obscene amount of mandatory outfits that formed. And there were news events that we still talk about today. Where's our logo sticker covered Delorian??!! In our "News, Views and Tunes", w...
Episode 773 - And The Nominees Are...
February 16, 2024 12:20 - 1 hour - 138 MBIt's that time again. The nominees for this year's Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame have been announced. This list always to seem raise both the eyebrows and ire of music fans. Its an ongoing debate whether The Hall should still be monickered "Rock n Roll" because of the inclusion of other genres. But every list has enough meat on the bone to warrant discussion. We dissect the list and make our top picks. *Spoiler* Ozzy is our Man. D'uh!! In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss some Rush and Spid...
Screw You, Togar!
February 10, 2024 21:14 - 2 hours - 183 MBBucket List moment! The '79 Ramones teen comedy "Rock n Roll High School" is an old fave of ours. We have it on DVD, various streaming platforms and have it practically memorized. But we never got to see it in the theatre...until now. Our local arthouse theater aired it is as part of their Cult Movie Night. So with the experience still fresh in our minds we decided to deep dive into the film. 2024 is also "RnRHS" 45 anniversary. We get into the cast, the highlights (and lowlights), the socia...
The Rush Of Black Metal
February 03, 2024 19:06 - 2 hours - 177 MBThe debut full lengther from the almighty Venom "Welcome To Hell" is one of the most influential underground albums ever. Not only in the Black Metal realm but thrash and NWOBHM as well. Its also the album that turned Snowy to Metal full time. We've often said "No Venom, No RAM". Turns out though, Aaron wasn't familiar with this classic (!). So we decided to take a deep dive into this amazing album. Not only all the stand out tracks but the artwork and passages on the jacket as well. We enj...
Episode 770 - Front To The Back
January 25, 2024 14:09 - 2 hours - 168 MBSure streaming is ruling the roost when it comes to how music is consumed. But the vinyl album is slicing their piece of the pie more and more. Metalheads have always been more album oriented as opposed to just cherry picking a few tracks. And for good reason. There have been numerous albums over the years that are best served whole. Albums that are 100% bangers with no one reaching for the "Skip" button. So this week we go through a list of such classics. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we ...
Episode 769 - Please Be Kind...Rewind
January 20, 2024 01:49 - 2 hours - 168 MBWe admit it, we're old. But with age comes experience. We've witnessed firsthand the majority of the techno marvels we take for granted today. One of our faves was the rise of the home video phenomenon. It was a fun and exciting era. We had the ability to see our favourite flicks at home. As well, it had its effects on Metaldom. This week we go over some of the major titles that made the format so sweet. It also introduced us to some great new bands and even gave some first live visuals of so...
Episode 768: The 2023 Rammy Awards
January 12, 2024 03:29 - 1 hour - 126 MBWhoo-Hoo!! It's time for our annual Rammy Awards! Kind of our take on the Grammys Awards (R.A.M...Gammy...Rammy. We're so clever). Basically, we give our picks of the past year in the categories that mean the most to Metalheads. Fave Band, Album, Song, Live Show a.o. As well, we make our inductions into The Radioactive Metal Hall Of Fame for Band, Album and what we cal the Myth And Legend. Give it a listen and compare your picks. Musically, we crank some Cirith Ungol, Destructor, Gutter Cree...
Episode 767: RAM’s NYE
January 06, 2024 03:54 - 2 hours - 187 MBNew Year's Eve was pretty low key around the RAM offices. We had a night of PJs and popcorn. So we decided this year we would save the partying for you the listeners. We ditched our usual segments and broke out the Lemmys. As we "tipped the elbow", we discussed a variety of topics. Those included our new "Frankenstein" bass, our Christmas hauls, "The Iron Claw" flick, 80s soundtracks, and The Mouse going public domain. Musically, we crank some Master, Mortuary(Mex), The Pist, Rotten Sound, D...
Episode 766: Goodbye 2023
December 23, 2023 03:59 - 2 hours - 182 MBAs of this episode, the year is starting to wind down. But before you start rockin' in the New Year, now is a good time to discuss some of the events that made 2023 the year that was. Without stepping on the Rammy Award's steel toed boots, we figured we'd share the awesome albums that provided our personal soundtracks. We also pay tribute to some of our fallen comrades. We also get stoked for the outfits that reformed in '23 and are preparing new material for '24. To help us out we enlisted ...
Episode 765: Messes Des Morts 2023
December 14, 2023 04:11 - 1 hour - 159 MBThe Messes Des Morts in Montreal is a Black Metal festival going on for a dozen years now. The attraction to the fest is the organizers ability to attract artists from across the pond that rarely makes appearances on North American stages. We had planned to be there for this year's instalment. Unfortunately, life had different plans. Fortunately, our good friend and co host of our sister podcast "Wrestling Night In Canada" Mr. "Ducky" Dustin Maruca made the trip. We picked his brain all abou...
Episode 764: PPV Not A.O.K
December 09, 2023 00:51 - 1 hour - 162 MBThis past weekend was what's suppose to be the final on stage hurrah for the legendary KISS. The outfit has gone full circle from the New York club scene some 50 years ago to Madison Square f'n Garden. This historical moment was available to fans worldwide on Pay-Per-View. Sorta. Our service for the big event was both dodgy (Thx Barney) and non existent. So this week we compare debacles. We wanted the best. But well... In our "News, Views, and Tunes", we discuss the amazing Sound City doc, s...
Episode 763: Up And Down The Metal Dial
December 01, 2023 03:06 - 2 hours - 181 MBWe cannot stress how important the "WKRP In Cincinnati" (78-82) sitcom has had on this radio show. No "Dr" Johnny Fever = No Radioactive Metal. So this being the Thanksgiving season, we take inspiration from the (in)famous "Turkey Drop" episode. We thought "What If..." (Thx Marvel) the characters of WKRP were Metalheads? What would their fave artists be? Some may seem obvious. But others required our Metal logo thinking baseball cap. Our more mature listeners will really appreciate this one!...
Episode 762: Dot Dot Dot
November 25, 2023 03:50 - 1 hour - 162 MBMetal and Punk bands are no strangers to the whole acronym for their name thing. Instead of spelling out their multi word monicker, it's just easier to focus on the first letters. The ones that immediately come to mind are D.R.I. and C.O.C. But what about obscure names like J.F.A. and E-X-E? So we figured we'd put our own Aaron to the test. Just for shites' and giggles. In our "News, Views, and Tunes", we discuss the Cavalera Bros re-recording the classic Sepultura "Morbid Visions" album. An...
Episode 761: Talk Like A Beast
November 17, 2023 03:45 - 2 hours - 188 MBLegendary rockers WASP are always a great time. Either on the live front or their immense discography. Case in point - we had a fantastic time merely talking about their wicked cover of The Who's "The Real Me". So we figured we'd crank up the volume and dedicate an entire discussion segments to Blackie And The Boys. We share our fave songs, albums, live experiences and how we first discovered the controversial outfit. And of course, our own personal stories pertaining to the one of LA's fine...
Episode 760: Cover To Cover
November 10, 2023 03:49 - 1 hour - 156 MBCover songs can be rather divisive amongst Metal fans. Some see it as a loving tribute. Others see it as a complete waste of time and effort. Around the RAM offices, we love a good cover song. Particularly a blast from the past being paid homage being paid by a current hotshot. But which is preferred? The original...or the cover. So we figured we'd go over our own laundry list and Yay or Nay on which version. Think QR/Slade. WASP/Who. Napalm Death/DKs. Musically, we crank new and used from H...
Episode 759: Into The Black
November 04, 2023 03:44 - 2 hours - 186 MBWhile we're not ready to give up the Halloween ghost just yet, we understand that the show must go on. Record Store Day: Black Friday is just around the corner. And RSD is always a huge deal around here. So if one is good than two must be better. So once again we go over the the RSD list of releases at www.recordstoreday.com and make our choices that we want to add to our collections. Pull up the list and check off your picks with us. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss our experience...
Episode 758: Pros At Cons
October 27, 2023 04:26 - 2 hours - 167 MBConventions are always a great time. Be they the growing number of pop culture cons or the closer to home record and music cons. In our neck of the woods, the Winnipeg Comic Con is upon us. So we decided to share our experiences at the Manitoba Record and Music Con. Aside from an awesome haul, we have some cool stories to share. As well, we discuss cons in general, all the why and wherefores. If you've never taken one in - Run! Don't walk, to the one nearest you. In our "News, Views and Tune...
Episode 757: We’re Only Seventeen
October 13, 2023 03:52 - 2 hours - 197 MBHappy Bday to us!! Believe it or not your fave Metal podcast has ben a thing for 17(!) years now! We we first de-butted nobody knew what a podcast was. So this time 'round we decided to kick back, pour a few of our fave bevies and just shoot the shite'. About anything and everything. We test our Horror metal at www.filmposters.com As well, we rank the Friday The 13th instalments. And finally, we enjoy the headaches Taylor and the Swifties are giving republicans. Musically, we have a fistful ...
Episode 756: Little Help From His Friends
October 07, 2023 02:34 - 1 hour - 135 MBThe Ozzman Cometh?? Mr. Ozzy Osbourne's recent announcement of wanting to do another album and tour has Metaldom all abuzz. But a front person is only as good as the band behind them. Over his illustrious career, Ozzy has surrounded himself with some amazing musicians. Most went on to have legendary carriers themselves. So we figured this week we'd apply the 'Top 5' treatment to those awesome artists. Yeah we chose some obvious (looking at you, Randy) but some other choices will raise your e...
Episode 755: Gray Hair Metal
September 22, 2023 04:06 - 2 hours - 186 MBAt a bazillion years old the Rolling Stones just released a new record. There's a whole new industry of "classic" rock bands still touring with more gray hair than hair spray. And Crue vox Vince Neil has been under fire for sub-par performances for years now. All this begs the question - When should an artist hang it up? Should there be an age limit? Or is it a health issue, positive or negative. How about when a band member no longer enjoys playing with their bandmates? We leave no stone un...
Episode 754: Halloween Eve
September 15, 2023 03:35 - 2 hours - 194 MBIt's mid September. That means the October spooky season is creeping up. Around here we fully embrace Halloween and all that goes with it. So for the month leading up to the 31st we like to assault our senses with the appropriate stimuli. So before Oct. 1st hits we decided it would be an awesome time to give our recommends for movies, music and comic books. We share some standards but we do a deep dive into some cool stuff. Musically, we crank some awesome tunage from Deceased, Denner's Infe...
Episode 753: Science Eventuality
September 08, 2023 02:56 - 1 hour - 153 MBA.I. (Artificial Intelligence) seems to be all the rage right now. Love it or hate it, it seems to have invaded the entertainment world, music being no exception. We do a deep dive into this phenom, with all the techno mumbo jumbo. Who knew back then that the science fiction from The Jetsons would become science reality. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss our recent trip to Texas (No, we didn't go blind). As well, we're once again up for a Manitoba Loud Music Award. Cast your vote at...
Episode 752: Gone To The Movies?
August 25, 2023 03:02 - 2 hours - 211 MBCouple episodes back we discussed the various unique places we've attended a gig. Now we can add "movie theatre" to that list. This past weekend the two Arlington, TX dates from the Metallica M72 tour were simulcast to theatres the world over. We both caught the Sunday show. And decided to go the event with a fine studded wristband. We go over the setlist, our theatre experiences and veer off to places unexpected. In all, a fantastic conversation! In our "News, Views and Tunes", we struggle ...
Episode 751: Speak ’em All
August 18, 2023 02:53 - 2 hours - 215 MBAfter our self imposed hiatus, we're back and ready to rock! But we weren't sitting back and sipping drinks on the beach. We took in some gigs. And hit the theatres and record shops. Oh, and Metallica's debut "Kill 'em All" hit the racks. Not only is "Kill..." one of the most influential albums but its also an old fave of ours. So we decided it would be a great time to dissect this album that helped shape our Metalness. We go over how/when we discovered it, our fave tracks and share some per...
Episode 750: Dad Rock?
July 20, 2023 02:34 - 1 hour - 159 MBHorns Up! Episode 750! Another milestone! We've all heard the expression "Classic Rock". We have a fair idea what makes up said music. But can we put a fine pointed horn on it? Is it simply a generational thing? Or do subgenres play into it? And what this "Dad Rock" business? Does it exist? And what are the who's, whats, wheres and whens behind it? It all makes for an interesting (to say the least) conversation. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss record shopping in a brewery (??). Mu...
Episode 749: Anytime, Anyplace
July 14, 2023 03:55 - 1 hour - 163 MBIf there was a penalty for exceeding a maximum amount of live gigs, we'd be doing hard time. We learned the good way that a gig can be enjoyed beyond the usual venues. Over the years we taken in shows in parking lots, sidewalks, parade floats a.o. That's not even counting the myriad of basement shows. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we reminisce about the "Airheads" flick. Musically, we crank new and used from Vendetta, Marduk, MainEEaxe, Attitude Adjustment, Escuela Grind, Artificial Dissem...
Episode 748: The Beat Of Our Own Drummer
July 06, 2023 03:17 - 2 hours - 175 MBAs with most genres, the vocalist and axeman seem to be the ones that seem to garner the most attention and accolades. It's the rhythm section that stirs the Metallic drink though. And drummers are the unsung heroes of our beloved genre. So taking a cue from the awesome "High Infidelity" flick, we present our "Top 5" of our favourite skinbeaters. We look at not only technical skill and reputation but influence and impact as well. All making for an interesting list. In our "News, Views and T...
Episode 747: Heavy Hobbies
June 30, 2023 04:28 - 2 hours - 183 MBWe all love our Heavy Metal. But Metalheads are nothing if not diverse, with a wide variety of interests outside of our album collections. The creators of our beloved genre are no different. Some artists have excelled in their chosen hobbies. This week we discuss which artists and activities we'd love to join in their endeavours. How 'bout "football" with Steve Harris. Golfing with Alice Cooper. Or skating with Pushead himself. The possibilities are endless. And some may just be feasible. Mu...
Episode 746: ’93 Is 30
June 23, 2023 04:19 - 2 hours - 180 MBReady to feel old? Remember the early 90s? Well, as of this year, 1993 is 30 effin' years old! Wow! Times flies when you're rocking and rolling. So we figured we'd do a deep dive into three decades ago and discover it wasn't all Seattle, flannel and "hard alternative". The year had a number of amazing albums, band debuts and news stories that rocked Metaldom. Musically, we have a stack of wax from Nile, Mayhem, Propaghandi, Cancer, Reagan Youth, 1349, Bestial Warlust, Electric Wizard and Fun...
Episode 745: Poser Exposer
June 16, 2023 03:53 - 1 hour - 138 MBWe're all too familiar with "that person". That individual who insists they "know it all" regardless of the topic at hand. As Metalheads it's particularly irritating when these posers try horning in on beloved genre. But's there's always a way to trip them up. Heavy Metal is ripe with trivia that is common knowledge to us but would expose any claims-to-be. Namely, a Sabbath vocalist not named Dio or Ozzy. Or Kirk Hammett's pre Metallica band. You get the idea. In our "News, Views and Tunes" ...
Episode 744: Genre Defiling
June 08, 2023 04:16 - 2 hours - 168 MBAs a follower of Heavy Metal, how many times have you heard from a non-believer "It all sounds the same to me." Our response - "You must be tone deaf considering the amount of sub genres that makes up our beloved music." But are there to many? And is it a positive or a negative? This week we dive right into it and sort it all out. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss parenting and book banning and all our activity on the live front. Musically, we crank new and used from Tygers Of Pan T...
Episode 743: Bringin’ The Mayhem
May 25, 2023 03:19 - 1 hour - 126 MBThis episode is a Good News/ Bad News situation. The Good News - The "Muppet Mayhem" TV series is up on Disney+. Being veteran Gen Xers, we'll always have a soft spot in our Metal Hearts for The Muppet Show. Dr. Teeth And The Electric Mayhem were the house band for said show. And this show sees our fave band of Muppets trying to cut their long overdue debut. We tore thru the show with the eagerness of a 10 yr. old and give our 2 cents. Now The Bad News - We lost one of the all time greats in...
Issue 742: Free The Fourth
May 19, 2023 03:07 - 2 hours - 177 MBThe month of May kicks ass! The first couple weeks has a couple kick ass events that caters to the geek in us. Sure we're a Heavy Metal radio show but we don't shy away from discussing some of our there interests. Mat The Fourth is a special day dedicated to all things Star Wars and for fans to celebrate their fandom. Just a few days later was Free Comic Book Day. This special day is the equivalent of Record Store Day. So we share our adventures and the special titles we picked up. In our "N...
Episode 741: Top 5 On The Six Strings
May 04, 2023 03:11 - 2 hours - 191 MBGuitar extraordinaire Nuno Bettancourt recently made headlines. He simply shared that none other than Prince himself once called him one of the Top 3 GOATs to ever bend the six strings. So we thought we'd one up His Highness and take a cue from Jon Kuzak from the awesome "High Fidelity" flick and share our Top 5 picks in both Metal and Rock categories. An interesting chat that you'd be surprised by some of our choices. In our "News, Views, and Tunes", we discuss this weekend's Comic Book Day...
Episode 740: RSD - Stack O’ Waxx
April 28, 2023 02:47 - 1 hour - 142 MBRecord Store Day 2023 is in the books. An awesome time was had by all. And we got a stack o' wax to commemorate the event. So now we're stoked to share our bounties and the stories that go along with them. Who knew just a trip to the record store would produce such cherished memories. Actually we did. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we got up on our soap box about those dastardly RSD record flippers!! Musically, we crank some tunage from Possessed, Jello Biafra w/ DOA, The Donnas, Century, C...
Episode 739: Midnight Madness
April 20, 2023 03:03 - 2 hours - 192 MBThe #1 topic in all of Metaldom is the new Metallica album. "72 Seasons" dropped late last week. And just like the last umpteenth albums from Lars and the Boys, the album has proven to be very divisive. But regardless of where you plant your flag with Camp Metallica, they always make for great conversation. This time out, we both lucked out and our local record shops had album listening parties and we bought the vinyl at the stroke of midnight. So we give the album the once over and rank the...
Episode 738: Issues/Non Issues
April 13, 2023 03:18 - 2 hours - 169 MBThere was metric ton of stuff going down in Metaldom this week. So we couldn't narrow it down to just one topic. This time 'round we get into the Bud Light/Kid Rock debacle, the Motley Crue/ Mick Mars legal mumbo jumbo, the "This is Hardcore" fest line up and, most importantly, we put the word out for a friend in need. In our "News, Views and Tunes', we share war stories from the live front and a new(!) K-Tel (!!) vinyl album. Musically, we crank some new and used from Smoulder, Gorilla Bis...
Episode 737: Tragedy In Metaldom
April 07, 2023 21:28 - 1 hour - 128 MBThere was really only one issue this to discuss this week. The tragedy at the Morbid Angel gig in Illinois is taking up the most space in the hearts and minds of the citizens of Metaldom. So this week we decided to simply pay tribute to our fallen comrade. Be sure to go to gofundme.com and do your part in helping the loved ones of Fred Livingston Jr. In our "News, Views, and Tunes", we take in some Death Match wrasslin and crank some new and used from Destructor, Daath, Micawber, Hexx, Sabba...
Episode 736: Home Sweet Hell
March 30, 2023 03:14 - 1 hour - 144 MBRAM is no stranger to the idea of the "house show". We've littered our "Metal Fix" with our experiences. But for the uninitiated, a house show is just as it sounds. A gig in someone's house, generally the basement, as opposed to a club or small hall. And they're always a lot of fun! We have another one coming up (on 4/20 even!!) So we figured it would be a great time to share some of our ideas of putting on house shows in some more public and pop culture houses and buildings. Think the Amity...
Episode 735: KISSing It Goodbye
March 24, 2023 03:51 - 2 hours - 174 MBIt's an old story we've all heard before. The legendary KISS have announced (again) that they're packing up their make up kit and going home. Whatever you believe, Gene and The Boys have announced the final (?) 50 dates on the "End of the Road" tour finishing up in the hallowed halls of Madison Square Garden. So with that we do a deep dive into these historic final gigs. We compare tix prices, which venues we'd love to see our last KISS show and the German "controversy" over the logo SSs. In...
Episode 734: Window Shopping
March 21, 2023 04:40 - 2 hours - 167 MBHorns Up!! After a brief hiatus, your fave radio show is back! Aaron had some personal stuff to attend to so it was opportune time to take a holiday. And after sixteen (!!) years on the air, I'd say we were due. We reunite for our fave time on the rock n roll calendar - Record Store Day! As is tradition now, we go over the list of special RSD releases and decide which records will be ours. So go to recordstoreday.com, click the list and join us. Which records are you looking forward too? Mus...
Episode 733: And The Winner Is...
February 17, 2023 05:50 - 1 hour - 148 MBThe Grammys are in our rearview mirror. Here in the Great White North, that means it's time for the Canadian equivalent, The Junos. Of course, the only category that means anything to Metalheads is the "Hard Rock/Metal Album". And as is tradition around here, it's time to play the newly christened "Head or Heart" game. A segment where we share who we'd like to see win. As well, we pick who we think will win. So with Aaron on a short sabbatical, we've enlisted the help of Snowy's "Wrestling N...
Episode 732: Gotta Support the Team!
February 03, 2023 03:39 - 1 hour - 136 MB"Support The Scene!" isn't just an old adage or a tired cliche'. Local Metal/Punk scenes aren't just a source of weekend entertainment. The "scene" is an important breeding ground for young talent to get their chops in before moving on to bigger ("better" will always be subjective). And it's a great source of weekend entertainment. But the scene needs to thrive to survive. So we all need to do our part. So this week we have a laundry list of Dos and Don'ts everyone should employ for the bett...
