After a little detour and something a little different on our last episode, we are back to covering a regular album this month, and what a regular album it is, as we take a peek at Chevelle's major label debut "Wonder What's Next", an album with two MASSIVE singles and a whole swath of drama. You see, Chevelle at this point in time consists of 3 brothers, the Loefflers. And they don't exactly like each other. Or more specifically, they hate Joe. We dig into all the contention amongst the bandmates and how this record went on to go double platinum without either of us feeling like it's a true touchstone album in the genre. We also take a long, hard look at the 2024 Sick New World lineup, which sees the festival already sold out despite the lineup not really delivering on the promise of Year 1's lineup, or the promise of a nu-metal festival, really.

If you want a true festival of nu-metal, head on over to patreon.com/thepodkast, where $4/month gets you THREE bonus episodes every single month. Last month was an iconic one on the Patreon, as Riv from Nu-Metal Agenda joined us to present our Nu-Metal Bang List. That's right, we each created a 5-song nu-metal playlist to have sex to, and the results were varied and probably pretty surprising. We also have merch discounts, an exclusive Discord, and a $7 tier that gets you all the bonus episodes in video format. Plus! You can tell us what to cover for a bonus episode. Check it out!
