Bacio Death Trip episodes

  • Episode 30 - Spineshank - The Height of Callousness

    This podcast is for true fans of the Resident Evil movie soundtrack and it's a real chicken and egg one here. Could Spineshank have been huge if they had signed with a label who knew what to do with them or did Roadrunner Records get them to heights that no one else could have because the band weren't mature enough to be a working band? It's probably Roadrunner on this one but you'll have to listen to find out more.


    Is Hexes by Bassnectar featuring Chino the next Charlie bit my finger? It is now.
    Is this a Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events heavy episode? Sure is.
    Did you ever play Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder? Probably not.

    Next week we're talking about the Queen of the Damned soundtrack. Fangs.

  • Episode 29 - Metallica - St. Anger

    Yeah, of course this was going to happen. Who starts a podcast focusing on music from the early 00's and skips over St. Anger?

    There's the usual St. Anger bingo that you can play with your friends. Mix, Bob Rock, Snare Sound. No Solos.

    But to ensure we give you more bang for your buck (reminder that this podcast is free thanks to our sponsors) we have Tom M. joining us to deep dive into what works on this album and what doesn't. Maybe time has been kind to the very, very long album. Maybe at the time the fanbase were still upset when Lars tried to sue Napster and that clouded their judgement. Maybe this album is just really bad. I mean, you've come this far. Just hit play and explore all of things Metallica and by all things Metallica, I just mean St. Anger.

    Before I go, I'm really happy with this episode. Sure the high quality that you've come to expect from Bacio Death Trip is there (excuse a bit of the popping on Tom's mic. It's his first go. Be kind. Plus it suits the St. Anger vibe) but I was mainly just stoked that it's done. It's over. I don't have a reason to watch Some Kind of Monster ever again. That's pure joy. Like a dog being let off it's leash, a student submitting their last ever thesis or Jamie Kennedy completing shooting on the set of Scream 3. It's done. It's over. What doesn't kill you, can only make you stronger, right? Right?

  • Episode 28 - Orgy - Candyass

    What kind of people are we going to attract this week as we use the hashtag 'orgy' all over Instagram? We're going to attract cyber dogs, that's who we will attract. People running the millennial gamut and stocked up with fresh glow stick necklaces.


    We're all about Orgy's Candyass this week and if you're from North America, the way pronounce Candyass is going to be confronting. And if you're from anywhere in the world, you're going to hear me say that Alien Ant Farm's song, Movies is a great song. That too will be confronting until you realise that I am right and that your whole life has been a lie until this point.

    Listen as I get grifted in the intro, reveal an expensive way to pitch woo and Benjii confuses baseball players with members of Sugar Ray.

    A fun episode that you should give Y2K stars on Apple Podcasts.

  • Episode 27 - The Offspring - Americana

    Americana was a monsterous album for SoCal punk legends, The Offspring so why does it leave such a bad taste in my mouth?

    Just like doughnuts, music is subjective but give me 50 minutes of your time and hear why this is probably the second worst Offspring album after Conspiracy of One. Imagine having a Conspiracy of One tattoo by the way. How do you explain that to your grandkids?

    I read through a lot of reviews of this album to prepare myself for this episode and none of them mentioned Eiffel 65, Major Payne, David Guetta or Puddle of Mudd so we’re hear to fill that gap.

    Bacio Death Trip. The only podcast that will fight for your right for pastries.


    p.s - I didn't get to talk about She's Got Issues and how terrible that drum beat is in the chorus. Have a listen. The footwork is too busy. Keep it simple. There's a MIDI version on Youtube that's better. Only single that didn't make their Greatest Hits. No good.

  • Episode 26 - Machine Head - The Burning Red

    Early Machine Head fans didn't take kindly to this album but it did introduce a whole new group of people to the band so we use this as a launching pad to talk about the vested interests that come into play when your band becomes a business. Whilst there is some background on how that Message in a Bottle cover made it to the album, the inclusion of that song makes it a hard album to defend but ultimately Machine Head have stood the test of time and their fans are still buying tickets to see them live.


    Scour the entire Earth and try and find another podcast that is going to draw the oft-forgotten parallels between cricket and nu-metal.
    For those of you that keep asking, yes, there is a bunch of Kerry King and Sum 41 chat is on this episode. Gotta keep the fans happy.

  • Episode 25 - Static X - Wisconsin Death Trip

    Trigger Warning: This episode of Bacio Death Trip contains themes regarding child abuse.


    To all the haters who said we’d never make it to episode 25, take a look at us now. We’re celebrating by talking about recently made the ‘Top 100 Best Albums featuring a sample from “Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama”. That’s right. The incredibly fun Wisconsin Death Trip by Static X.
    An album so good that Bon Jovi took inspiration from it.

    Play this podcast through your Google Home mini, create a hole in the o-zone layer from copious amounts of hairspray and nurse your centipede bite as we talk for 60 minutes about the ultimate running album, Wisconsin Death Trip!

  • Static X / Elton John Mashup

    I'm not going to sit here and tell you that content isn't a valuable form of currency. Memes make the word go round, hot takes fuel our mornings, likes and comments are our sustenance. So please kindly accept this crumb of content just for your ears.

    There's a bit of karaoke, some nu metal workout tunes and the reveal of a mashup so good that Girl Talk is about to take me on his next tour.

  • Episode 24 - Staind - Break the Cycle

    With some help from Fred Durst’s troll magic, Staind became one of the most popular bands around the time they released their single, It’s Been Awhile. It’s still their most played song on Spotify.


    But some time has passed since their breakthrough album Break the Cycle and frontman, Aaron Lewis (not to be confused with C.S Lewis) has gone full MAGA. Does this change the way we see this album?
    We also look at how important tracklist order is and so, I have created Staind The Holy Gift - a reordering of the songs from Break the Cycle that, in my opinion, flows much better. Give it a listen and let us know what you think!

    In addition to my world famous Shawn Mullins impression, of course we ask the big question. Is the studio version of Outside as good as the live acoustic one featuring Fred Durst?

    Bon Appétit.

  • Episode 23 - Tool - Lateralus

    Are Tool fans the worst part about Tool? Does the Holy Gift track listing give new energy to this album? Why does Tool always water down good albums with go nowhere intermission tracks that stop the flow?


    Of course we will get into these topics and other important areas like, getting pregnant from pre-echo, Mike Patton hating on Wolfmother and an important social experiment; playing Tool to someone who has never heard of the band!

    Check out the Holy Gift version of Lateralus on Spotify here.

    Dig deep, go further, count patterns, drink wine, spiral out and explore Tool with us and join us again next week for our chat on Staind's Break the Cycle.
