Join us for our latest discussion as we explore the purpose of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and ruminate on the induction process for artists.

The conversation will include Jason bringing up the Ramones way too often, along with plenty of the usual detours from our hosts.

June 03 Episode 119 - Meeting Your Heroes: When Nick Met Steve Harris of Iron Maiden
Meeting your heroes can be a mixed bag. While it offers an invaluable chance to connect with someone you admire, it also carries the risk of damaging your perception of them and their work.

In today’s episode, we discuss the environmental and emotional factors involved in approaching a hero, the potential outcomes, and what people hope to achieve from these interactions. We also share the story of when Nick unexpectedly met Steve Harris of Iron Maiden in London.

May 27 Episode 118 - Bands Who Don’t Sing in Their Native Language
Why do bands choose to sing in their native language when it might limit their worldwide appeal? Is it a matter of authenticity, nationalism, or pride? Furthermore, why are many listeners hesitant to engage with lyrics in a language they don't understand, and why was Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance so controversial?

Join us as we discuss these topics and listen to Jason get irrationally mad about the appropriation of metal by those outside the community.

May 20 Episode 117 - A Conversation with Desiccation About Their New Album “Legatum Mortuorum”
The Nevada City/Sacramento, California scene is rarely recognized as a hub for extreme metal, but Desiccation’s new album, "Legatum Mortuorum," is set to change that.

In this episode, we speak with James Bratt, Soell Bratt, and Karl Cordtz about creating music during the pandemic, navigating grief, and the process behind their latest release on Carbonized Records.

May 06 Episode 115 - What Makes a Great Death Metal Vocalist?
What makes a death metal vocalist truly great? Whether they are guttural, raspy, or barely intelligible, we are exploring the qualities that allow certain vocalists to stand out from the crowd of cookie-cutter, and cookie monster, styles.
