Didn't Go Platinum

S3, E4: Those Once Loyal by Bolt Thrower


Listen Later

We're off to the trenches with the pals battalions as Didn't Go Platinum revisits an overlooked classic: it's Those Once Loyal by Bolt Thrower.

This WW1-themed death metal album was deemed so good, that the band decided to stop recording once it was released. And yet, it's got a reputation as one of those albums that loads of people have heard of, but never listened to.

Regular host Tim Bolitho-Jones is joined by enthusiastic metal journalist and fellow Distorted Sound writer Phil Cooper, the two discussing everything from their favourite songs to Blackadder Goes Fourth.

Please ignore the fact that Tim calls it 'To Those Once Loyal' for the entire episode.
