  • Between seasons: Steve shows David the single from IRON MAIDEN singer BRUCE DICKINSON'S recent solo project AFTERGLOW OF RAGNAROK which features a comic review, and a review of 3 different versions of the same song!

    Send us Fan Mail

    "Afterglow Of Ragnarok" is the first single from the IRON MAIDEN singer's upcoming solo album, "The Mandrake Project"

    "Afterglow Of Ragnarok"
    is a dramatic and epic track that introduces the world not just to the music of the album but to the compelling narrative that forms the basis of "The Mandrake Project".

    "The Mandrake Project" is a dark, adult story of power, abuse and a struggle for identity, set against the backdrop of scientific and occult genius. Created by Dickinson, scripted by Tony Lee and stunningly illustrated by Staz Johnson for Z2 Comics, the series features 12 episodes that collect into three graphic novels and will be launched in 2024.

    An eight-page comic prequel to "The Mandrake Project", titled "Afterglow Of Ragnarok", is included within the vinyl seven-inch single booklet which accompanies the single of the same name and sets the scene for the story to come. The seven-inch single also features Dickinson's original solo demo version of the song "If Eternity Should Fail", which first appeared on IRON MAIDEN's album "The Book Of Souls" in 2015.

  • Between seasons: Dave brings in something from DAVID BOWIE he bought for record store day in 2018, a neat little live picture disc called BREAKING GLASS, an EP re-released for the 40th anniversary

    Send us Fan Mail

    The E.P. now features ‘BREAKING GLASS’, ‘ART DECADE’, ‘HANG ON TO YOURSELF’ and ‘ZIGGY STARDUST’ live from Earls Court in London during the Isolar II tour of 1978. These four tracks are alternative performances to the ones that recently appeared on the critically acclaimed live album WELCOME TO THE BLACKOUT (LIVE LONDON ’78), and none were featured on the original 1978 E.P..

    Initially released in the UK in January 1977 on the groundbreaking LOW album, ‘BREAKING GLASS’ was co- written by Bowie, bassist George Murray and drummer Dennis Davis. A longer, reworked version of the song was a staple of the Isolar II Tour, and a live version from that tour was used as the lead track on the original live 7" E.P. to promote Bowie's second live album, STAGE in 1978.

  • Between seasons, Steve shows David a power metal classic QUEENSRŸCHE (1982) by QUEENSRŸCHE. Get our yer D&D and/or fantasy books and join us.

    Send us Fan Mail

    Queensrÿche is the debut EP by American heavy metal band Queensrÿche, released independently in 1982 through 206 Records and reissued later that next year through EMI America Records. A remastered edition was reissued in 2003 through Capitol Records.

    In the early 1980s, Queensrÿche was known as The Mob, a cover band that played songs from popular heavy metal bands such as Iron Maiden and Judas Priest.[3] Their line-up consisted of guitarists Chris DeGarmo and Michael Wilton, drummer Scott Rockenfield and bassist Eddie Jackson. Without a singer, they performed several shows with Geoff Tate, who at the time was the front man of the local band Babylon, and later of Myth. Tate chose not to join The Mob, because he was not interested in performing heavy metal covers.[4]

    Inspired by the positive responses from their performances at local rock festivals, The Mob decided to switch from playing cover songs to writing original music.[4] The four members, who were between 17 and 19 years old,[5] rehearsed five days a week[4] in the basement of Rockenfield's parents,[5] and took on at least two jobs each to earn enough money to record a 24-track demo tape.[6] They booked the graveyard shifts[7] from Monday through Friday at Triad Studios in Redmond, Washington, to record four songs.[6] Tate was asked to join the band for the recording sessions, and in the same week write the lyrics to one unfinished song, which became "The Lady Wore Black".[6]

  • SEASON 1 FINALE! CAN YOU SMELL THE HAIRSPRAY? Steve tests the limits of his friendships by making 3 punks listen to overblown hair metal album DEF LEPPARD, PYROMANIA (1983)

    Send us Fan Mail

    Pyromania is the third studio album by English rock band Def Leppard, released on 20 January 1983[2] through Vertigo Records in UK and Europe and through Mercury Records in the US. The first album to feature guitarist Phil Collen who replaced founding member Pete Willis, Pyromania was produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange. The album was a shift away from the band's traditional heavy metal roots toward a more radio-friendly sound, finding massive mainstream success. Pyromania charted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200,

    The album was partially recorded with original guitarist Pete Willis, whose rhythm guitar tracks appear on all songs. On 11 July 1982, Willis was fired for alcohol abuse and replaced by guitarist Phil Collen, who contributed solos and guitar parts not yet recorded by Willis.[8]

    The album can be seen as a transitional one between the heavy metal sound of Leppard's first two albums and the radio-friendly direction of later releases.[10] It featured rockers such as "Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)", "Stagefright" and "Die Hard the Hunter" as well as the Top 40 hits "Photograph", "Rock of Ages" and "Foolin'". - Wikipedia

    Wild Gift is the second studio album by American rock band X, released on May 6, 1981,[1][2] by Slash Records.

    The track "White Girl" was sampled by the Red Hot Chili Peppers on their 1989 album Mother's Milk, in the song "Good Time Boys".[3] The Chili Peppers song's lyrics mentioned X's John Doe specifically, "whose voice is made of gold". - Wikipedia

  • Fuck, let’s figure it out! Steve brings in SYSTEM OF DOWN vocalist SERJ TANKIAN’S 2012 solo album HARAKIRI, an album that has unfortunately aged very well lyrically with themes of environmentalism and modern geopolitical conflicts

    Send us Fan Mail

    Check out our guest Dan’s project Shrouded Day, and his new album Photonia on Bandcamp

    Harakiri is the third studio album by System of a Down frontman Serj Tankian. It was released on July 10, 2012.

    Tankian has described the album as "the most up-tempo punk rock oriented record that I've written probably since the System days." In the same interview, he also confirmed that a 2013 world tour would likely follow in support of the album.[3]

    Hara-kiri, also known as seppuku, is a term for the ritual 'honour' suicide of Japanese samurai, with the former term being more common in speech and the latter being more literary, upper-class, and formal. The act involves self-disembowelment with a tantō (a Japanese-style dagger originating in the Heian period), slicing the abdomen from left to right. The album explores ideas of animal suicide.

    Changesonebowie is a compilation album by English musician David Bowie, issued through RCA Records in 1976. It collected songs from the 1969–1976 period, including the first LP appearance of "John, I'm Only Dancing". A "sax version" of this song, cut during the Aladdin Sane sessions in 1973, appeared on the first 1000 copies of the UK pressing (identified by the lack of the RCA logo in the upper-right corner of the cover). Later pressings of Changesonebowie featured the original version of the single that had been recorded and released in 1972. All US pressings of the LP contain this original version as well.

    Two of the tracks, "Ziggy Stardust" and "Suffragette City", had never been released as singles when Changesonebowie was issued, though the former had been the B-side of "The Jean Genie" in November 1972 and the latter would be released as an A-side in July 1976 to help promote the compilation.
