Warm up the gravy and drizzle it all over your spuds, it's the Didn't Go Platinum Christmas episode! Tim welcomes Chris Earl back to sit by a roaring fire, drink mulled wine and discuss the self titled third album by that most festive of metal bands, Chimaira.

They discuss their own histories with the Cleveland heroes, examine the band's wider place in the New Wave Of American Metal and why the rise of the re-thrash and metalcore scenes might have dented their popularity. Chris does an impression of Chris Barnes from Six Feet Under, and Tim spends way too long talking about eggnog.

This is the season finale for the first series, so we'll see you all next year for series 2.
