The Heavy Metal Hangover

S2E136 - Infinite Access, Zero Connection? Metal in the Age of Everything


Listen Later

Rex and Duff are tackling a heavy question this week: Are we losing our connection to the music? With millions of tracks just a click away, we discuss whether having infinite access has actually made us value individual albums less. Do we still sit with a record, read the liner notes, and let it haunt us, or have we become "musical tourists" constantly chasing the next skip button?

Grab your headphones and join us for a deep dive into the soul of the scene in the digital age.
