[Short Cuts] Did Metallica Really Sell Out?
October 07, 2021 08:45 - 2.96 MBIn last year's Rush episode with our friend Rich Lamberty, Aaron asked Dan a question about his Metallica fandom.

[Short Cuts] The (Clip That Shouldn't Be) Used
October 01, 2021 08:45 - 4 minutes - 4.94 MBIn our Pointfest/Riot Fest episode, Dan told a story about missing an entire set by The Used while waiting in line for a beer. Back in February, during the recording of our episode on The Pretty Reckless, The Itch went into a bit of a giggle fit regarding that very event, leading to 4 minutes of (hopefully) good-natured ribbing at the expense of a band that probably didn't deserve it. With that in mind, Aaron reminds the listener that he has no problem with The Used, and that Heartwork was a...

In this episode, we have a chat with the delightful Daisy Dead, bassist and (understudy harsh) vocalist for The Dead Deads, whose killer (heh) new album Tell Your Girls It's Alright combines the best sounds of glam, punk, grunge, and straight up rock (especially of the 90s variety).
