Do you think if Eminem didn’t bring D12 out, he would still have as much respect in the rap game as he has? Or does this add to his legacy? Do you think Bizarre's flow is terrible and is basically the hip hop equivalent of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day? Have you heard Proof's Searching for Jerry Garcia?

Easily one of the best interviews, I've ever done, I know you're going to enjoy this episode with Jerk singer, Johnathan Devoy as we discuss touring with Insane Clown Posse and Disturbed, why he hates the single 'I Hate People Like That', what Johnny Rotten thinks of the band and of course, being the drummer in Queen of the Damned and how itchy eyebrow stubble can be.

I first saw Wollongong metal band, Segression all the way back in February, 2000 supporting an up and coming band out of Iowa called, Slipknot. I enjoyed their set, went and bought the album at Sanity and then started a soon to be award winning podcast that would eventually put me in touch with Chris Rand, the bassist and singer from Segression. Some people have said that Segression only started playing metal to have a member appear on Bacio Death Trip and whilst Chris and I don't get into that, we do talk about the ways in which Slipknot used to go about hiding their identities, performing karaoke with Zakk Wylde, singing Bleed with Soulfly at a Big Day Out, pre-workout (of course) and we do get into Smile - their third album which was released by Roadrunner Records (or was it?) back in 2000.

Sepultura. If it is good enough for Bjork, it’s good enough for you. What an amazing album. But is it the blueprint for nu-metal albums or is it an album full of free jams, tribe sounds and Ross Robinson energised endings?

The days of Slipknot playing small, intimate venues are well over. Thankfully, Australian Slipknot Tribute, Surfacing are bringing it to stages way too small for them and playing songs all through Slipknot's catalogue. Adam, the singer of Surfacing is on this week's pod to tell us about the cutthroat world of the Slipknot replica mask trade, lugging kegs and also his thoughts on Slipknot's newest single, The Dying Song (Time to Sing) which I stupidly call Time To Die because I'm nothing if not a consummate professional.

You might think you haven’t heard The Mad Capsule Markets before, but if you played Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 then you have. Not me though. I dropped out after THPS2 so Mad Caps were new to me. I don’t even think I had seen their name written anywhere. Luckily, Psychonaut has been a fan for two decades now so he’ll guide us through the album.

Hi, I am a mid 30's Australian male and I have only just discovered how good Silverchair are. Well, in particular Neon Ballroom and this week's album, Diorama. Beautifully ambitious songs with imaginative orchestral scores underneath and a real sense of hope and optimism in the lyrics. Surely one of the few bands who found success, started wearing pork pie hats and actually got better!

We’ve got an entertaining podcast for you today, all about Stone Sour’s self titled record. he band Corey Taylor and Jim Root were in before Slipknot. You know, the album that has Bother on it? Yeah, that song with the film clip that has Corey wearing a Spiderman ring. Banger of a track. But if that was your first taste of Stone Sour, how does the rest of the album sound? Is it full of acoustic ballads or does it have too many songs that sound like Slipknot-Lite?

That's right! 15 years after their last show, Sunk Loto are back and have a bunch of upcoming shows and to celebrate this incredible news, I was lucky enough to chat with singer, Jason Brown all about the reformation, recording their first ep, pre-workout and future plans for the band.

Guano Apes are a really tricky band to learn anything about. They don't do many interviews, Western media seem to ignore them and the album that we're talking about isn't on Spotify in Australia and I refuse to get an Apple Music account. So we're very lucky that Ez from Spacegoat joins us for this episode as she is a certified hardcore Guano Apes fan and has been for over twenty years.
