Radio Toilet ov Hell

This week on Toilet Radio we're talking with Jonas Renkse of sad boi legends Katatonia! We were just talking about these guys! Jordan and Jonas talk about only wanting to listen to sad music, concerns for visa troubles when attempting to tour the United States, making the transition from death metal vocals to actual singing, taking on newer, younger band members, and warming up with Ratt and Quiet Riot. It's a great interview, skip to 24 minutes in to hear it. ALSO on the show: Brent Hinds left Mastodon after 25 years and now doesn’t have anything kind to say about his old crew. Sharon is beefing with bands again as her opportunity to do so rapidly closes forever. Ronnie Radke is cancelling-cancelling WHO? It’s Predator vs. Predator as his new schtick is dropping dimes on smaller musicians that are just as gross and predatory as he is. Whoever wins, we lose. Folks, it's a good one.

On this week's show we're turning our attention to the United States in the early 80s. Europe was the dominant force in heavy metal but massive changes were coming just down the line. We're talking about the bands that were moving and shaking the US from 1980 to 1984. We're talking about the sonic shifts that would set up glam and thrash to take the world by storm just moments later. Join us as we discuss Metal Massacre, Metal Blade, Bitch, Warlord, Armored Saint, Griffin, Truama, and much, much more.

This week on Toilet Radio: We’re grippin' and sippin' at tear-stained chalices in our finest corsets as we discuss GOTHIC METAL. What in the world is gothic metal? What makes it different from goth rock and just how many sub-sub genres of it are there? We talk about some stand-out gothic metal acts like Type O Negative, Paradise Lost, Katatonia, and Moonspell while discussing some lesser-known bands you oughta know about. Brace yourself for sad bois and goils, frilly shirts, and plenty of tinkly keyboards as we get goth as all get out. Folks, it’s a good one.

This week on Toilet Radio: We're taking our sweet ass time to discuss one of the slower elements in the heavy metal periodic table. This week is all about DOOM METAL. What is Doom? When did it differentiate itself from the first wave of heavy metal? What makes it a distinct entity from the many subgenres that emerged concurrently? Who are the power players throughout the decades? We're talking about an obscure NWOBHM band that unintentionally helped create the genre, Candlemass picking up the baton and making their stamp on the genre, and a variety of killer bands that have refined and reinvigorated the genre since. Folks, it's a good one.

This week on Toilet Radio: We're continuing our Genre series in which we spend an hour discussing one subgenre that makes up the kaleidoscope we know as heavy metal. This week it's all about HARDCORE. What is hardcore? How did this genre full of suburban knuckleheads bloom from the comparatively cosmopolitan world of 70s punk rock? How in the world did this small teenage scene go from 80s squalor to following Krishna in the 90s, get hip hop focused in the 2000s, and become mostly metal all along the way? We pick out a handful of songs that we think best illustrate the dimensions of hardcore and discuss what these bands all did to inspire a legion of other bands and sub-sub genres in their wake. Folks, it's a good one.

Just a heads up, this episode is TOO HOT for standard platforms. You can listen to a stripped-down version here or on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts BUT if you want to listen to the full, uncut version you'll need to check out the Toilet ov Hell Patreon page.

This week on Toilet Radio: We're launching a new series in which we discuss one subgenre in heavy metal at a time. This series is about taking a single genre and discussing all the things we like about it. It's a wildly different approach for us. We're talking about the history and highlights of DEATH METAL in this very first edition. Where did it come from? Where did it go? Where did it come from, Death Metal, Joe? We're talking about thrash origins to a Floridian bloom, UK proliferation, and Swedish perfection in this compact lil primer on the genre you all know and love. We pick out a handful of songs that we think best illustrate the dimensions of death metal and discuss what these bands all did to inspire a legion of other bands and sub-sub genres in their wake. Folks, it's a good one.

THIS WEEK ON TOILET RADIO: Kings of Thrash, Dave Ellefson’s new band, just now released a terrible song about the COVID pandemic. It is currently 2025 if you were confused. Creed is getting mixed up with Indy car racing for reasons we straight up cannot ascertain. Ash Avildsen of Sumerian Records spent his mother’s day weekend having a full-force meltdown online because his right wing friends don’t want to watch his biopic about Mildred Burke. Trivium and Bullet for my Valentine are BEEFING and Five Finger Death Punch had their catalog sold out from under them. Be on the look out for Sham Pain (Taylor’s Version) any day now.

This week on Toilet Radio: We're at the Pizza Hut. We're at the Taco Bell. We're at the combination Pizza Hut/Taco Bell. Join us as we get way deep into the weeds of Taco Bell's "Feed the Beat" marketing campaign. For years now, the ubiquitous fast food taco chain has been giving little bands a pile of $5 gift cards in exchange for their cultural cache. Is it cynical? You bet! Also on this episode: Matt Barlow is 100% going to re-join Iced Earth, Rob Halford is double-booked on the night of Ozzy's final show, and Attack Attack are threatening to release new music. Folks, it's an episode.

This week on Toilet Radio: Summer Slaughter sold by Ash Avildsen, Jamey Jasta proud new owner of a lemon. Related: We look at Ash's new women's wrestling movie and are awed by new heights in nepotism. An original Possessed guitarist (not the guy you know) got shot by the cops in a lawn care dispute. We get more depressing information on Ozzy’s upcoming final performance. Propagandhi and Hideous Divinity are backing out on US tours for very valid reasons. Finally, we have a mostly pleasant conversation about the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame (no Eddie Trunk).
