[ORIGINALLY POSTED ON PATREON 2/11/22]

This week we're tying up some loose ends by discussing The Lost Tracks of Danzig. Released in 2007, this beefy compilation is packed with a ton of unreleased songs spanning the first 20 years of Danzig's career. This record is a must for any fans, especially since half of it is with the classic lineup (the Dream Team). We also go on tangents about Metallica, drumming, and Zach Hill. Don't forget to check out our full episode on Danzig if you haven't already!

This week we’re discussing every album by Can from 1968 to 1973. In addition to helping pioneer krautrock, Can is arguably one of the most influential bands of all time. They’ve been sampled by countless artists and their style is both unmistakable and timeless. A wild and incredible band that never really got their due. This era of the band covers their stint with their most known vocalist, Damo Suzuki, as well as some of their most beloved albums. Everyone should know this band.

Closing track: “She Brings the Rain” from Soundtracks (1970)

This week we’re discussing 93696, the latest album by experimental black metal band Liturgy. Led by vocalist/guitarist Haela Hunt-Hendrix, Liturgy is a band that must be heard to be believed. While they are technically black metal, there are countless classical, experimental, orchestral, and even hip hop elements. Brutal beyond words and endlessly creative. This is a band that will alienate both normies and black metal purists alike.

Closing track: “93696”

This week we’re discussing every album by Sunny Day Real Estate. While they were a massive part of establishing emo as a genre in the mid to late 90s, you’d be a fool to dismiss these guys as just another emo band. Sunny Day has more in common with post-hardcore than with what we consider emo. Leave any biases at the door because this band rules.

This week we’re discussing the most recent album by the Melvins, Bad Mood Rising. The boys neglected this album when it came out last year, but it was a genuine accident. If you like the Melvins, you will like this album. And if you’re like Mike, you’ll absolutely love it.

Closing track: “The Receiver and the Empire State”

This week we’re discussing every album by Redd Kross. Formed by brothers Jeff and Steven McDonald when they were literally kids, Redd Kross probably influenced a ton of your favorite bands. Blending garage rock with power pop, these guys have a distinct and charming style that isn’t for everyone, but is undeniably fun. They’re also good friends with the Melvins, and the two bands currently share members.

This week we’re discussing Nature Morte, the latest album by sludge, doom, drone, metal band Big Brave. We’ve been fans of this band for years and if you happen to enjoy music that mercilessly beats you to a pulp, you’re in luck. It doesn’t get any heavier than this. Don’t let the lack of a bass and the female vocals fool you, this is some serious punishment.

Closing track: “Carvers, Farriers and Knaves”

This week we’re discussing every album by Silkworm. Made up of core members Tim Midyett, Andy Cohen, and Michael Dahlquist, Silkworm is a band that put in the time, effort, and heart, but never quite got their due. While in the same circles as bands like Pavement in the 90s and were longtime collaborators with Steve Albini, Silkworm had a style that was entirely their own, which didn’t exactly have mainstream appeal, to say the least. However, their fan base is rabid and dedicated. Plus, Tim and Andy were kind enough to give us their insights personally.

This week we’re tying up some loose ends by discussing the new, posthumous EP by Brainiac, The Predator Nominate, as well as Attic Tapes, a vast collection of demos. It’s been over two decades since singer/guitarist Tim Taylor tragically died in a car accident, ending Brainiac’s career. But these releases show they were working on music as delightfully strange and innovative as we’ve come to expect from them. There’s no better time to revisit this insanely underrated band.

Closing track: “Pyramid Theme” from The Predator Nominate EP (2023)

This week we’re discussing every album by The Sword. Made up of core members JD Cronise (guitar, vocals), Kyle Shutt (guitar), and Bryan Richie (bass), The Sword is straightforward, hard hitting, stoner rock at its finest. While they started out as a doom metal band, they evolved into a noticeably deeper hard rock band, never once shedding the Sabbath-inspired pentatonic riffs along the way. Not a band for every occasion, but one that kicks a ton of ass.
