Revived by the spirit of Stranger Things’ Eddie Munson, today we are going to mosh our way through the music of Metallica. From Kill ‘em All to …And Justice for All and beyond, the band has evolved from rebellious, rage-fueled teenage innovators to the flag-bearers of a heavy metal ethos rooted in principles without being didactic. Returning guest and committed metalhead Chris Freiman and William Irwin, author of the new book The Meaning of Metallica: Ride the Lyrics, join the show to pick through the politics and philosophy of the kings of thrash.
