POLYMUSE is an experience that takes a deep dive through the discographies of the artists that changed our lives! Co-hosts and cousins, Ben and Michal, dissect a different artist each season, and a…
different album each episode as they break down each project! The duo delve into the album backstory, and spin though track-by-track analysis of instrumentals, lyrics, impact, and nostalgia! Each song is also ranked on a tier list as the cousins work toward revealing which tracks will make their all-time mix CD! Season 2 takes System of a Down for a rewind!
