I mean, who has ever heard this record before?

A lotta people apparently. Is it good? Bad? Ugly?

ALL THREE?!

Our friends Against Evil are back to talk about their new record which KICKS ASSSSSSSS. Come hear all about it, get a few sneak peeks and see what the lads have on the horizon!

Bust out the brackets! We are putting 24 KISS records through the literal and figurative wringer to find the best KISS record. Make your picks and set your parlays.

Worst of the BIG 4? Best of the SMALL 5? What's the deal with MEGADETH? forever in Metallica's shadow or an entity on their own? 

Let's have that talk about MEGADETH, eh? 

I am the Watcher ! For countless eons I have observed your world and recorded its significant events. Lately I have peered into adjacent realities, realms that embrace the alternate paths your world’s history might have taken.

Celebrity Chef? Check
Boxing enthusiast? Check
Tattooed millionaire? hmmmm
METALHEAD? ABSO-F**KING-LUTELY

Y'ever have a band that you loved but they just never broke the BIG-bigtime only to see a similar but poor excuse make it HUGE? Who are your bands? Who are you holding a candlelight vigil for in hopes that one day they'll make the bigtime? Maybe get a callback for the Better Call Saul soundtrack or a throwback on Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Who knows? There's still time

What you know about that? KISS? hmmmph. Test your skills if you dare. This was hard. But I won. At least that's what I'm telling people. 

Please answer all answers in the question form of a question. Pit yourself against the METALHEADS. 

Do you remember where you were when you first saw the cover of Diary of a Madman? I do. You should. Old head. The year was 1981 and we were just popping our juicy metal cherry. Get in, get on, and get off with the Middle-Aged Metal-Heads for the latest episode where we talk about the year 1981.

He talks about his faves, his stories, and his remembrances with a foundational band of our youth, TWISTED F**KING SISTER!! Listen along, fellow SMFs and get yerself some METAL LEARNIN 

We are back for the 8th time answering listener questions in this 9th volume of Listener Questions. Maybe you asked. Maybe you wanna know. Maybe not.

You ain't no punk you punk. You wanna talk about the real junk? Well put out your cans 'cos the garbagemen are here this week with a veritable cornucopia of tune and comments across our many decades of METAL lovin just right for your oven. So open up and say ah, babyyyyyy 

Eddie Van Halen wrote the book and tore it up over his career. Many times over. As fans, musicians, and critics we often found ourselves floored at the sounds coming from his guitars. It still seems unreal -- all of it. His ability, his music, and his passing. We miss you already Eddie. We were never the same when you came and we'll never be the same with you gone. Rock on, brotherman. 

It's 1978 and you're in the HOTTEST BAND IN THE WORLD. So what do you do? Record four solo records and release them all at once. WHAT? 

In this episode, each of us cover one of the solo records all on our lonesome. It's fun, it's informative, it's a little weird to talk to yourself.

“FOR ACE, PAUL, PETER AND GENE”

Well it's finally here. The boyz and their toyz circle up like a coupla jerks to talk about the cracker of an Aussie band. 

AAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrgghhhhhhhhhhh!
We go through this 28 minute epic Piece by Piece in the middle of the current Epidemic. You'd be Criminally Insane to miss our on your opportunity to be Reborn on the Altar of Sacrifice that is this week's auditory Postmortem of one of the greatest thrash albums of all time. Jesus Saves time by podcasting in the car during the commute but don't get distracted and wind up meeting the Angel of Death. 

Dear Middle-Aged Metal-Heads, 

I'm a college student in a small midwestern town. Recently, the band I'm in has been experimenting with playing each other's, well...let's say "songs." We rock out the seven inches and see who can play the best. Whatever gets everyone going is the one we play the most. Is this something that I should worry about? Is it okay to tell my other friends about it? I think they'll really like what we're doing. My dad says I'll go blind. 

and It's number is Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Niiiiiiinnnnnneeeeee. 

Ted Bundy is executed.
China has the Tiananmen Square protests in May
Iran issues a fatwa on Salman Rushdie over The Satanic Verses
Lyle and Erik Menendez murder their wealthy parents
Rain Man wins best picture
Tim Burton’s Batman was the highest grossing picture of the year
Top Album: Don’t Be Cruel by Bobby Brown
Top Single: Look Away by Chicago, (Highest charting hard rock single, Every Rose Has Its Thorn by Poison)

It's 2020, kids. Dan Kennedy is our guest. Buckle up, Hucklebuck.

My doctor says I need to take a LAXATIVE. That was funny when we were kids but now its part of everyday life. Getting old sucks but not when you have metal to (literally) fall back on. Rub one out for 30 minutes and 39 seconds IF YOU DARE. All you back room boys salute when her flag unfurls.
