Just a quick show note to let you know that we're still here and pumping out content - but a certain platform has been pulling down our episodes for some stupid reason, which is why nothing new has shown up on the audio platforms for a few months.

We will be fixing this error in the very near future! Until then... here's a short explanation! Carpe Diem!

It’s our first show of 2026 - a year forty years removed from one of the greatest in heavy metal history, 1986! We’ll be doing some deep dives into some of the incredibly classic records that defined that year and on this episode, we’re starting off with the fan-favorite Iron Maiden albumSomewhere In Time! Is it a worthy successor to the hugely successful and popular Powerslave – or does it signal the start of a decline in the quality of the band’s output?

It’s the next entry in our series of “you can’t have DT”, so… it’s 2011 and you walk into the record store to buy A Dramatic Turn Of Events… and the clerk tells you that you CAN’T buy it! You HAVE to choose something else… what records are you grabbing? We give OUR choices for what we’d buy when we can’t have what we really want – the new Dream Theater record!

We host a DT podcast, so you’d figure that we would know our stuff when it comes to all manner of trivia about the band – but do we? We test our qualifications and put ourselves through a number of online Dream Theater quizzes to how much we REALLY know about our favorite band!

With Symphony X embarking on their first proper U.S. tour in a decade, we decided to dive into one of the band’s most beloved and iconic releases – 2007’s Paradise Lost! Is it a little slice of heaven, as most fans agree – or is it actually a little bit of hell? We give our thoughts on this incredible slab of prog metal greatness!

It’s another ranking show on TII! This time around, a discussion about ranking the opening songs on each of the DT studio albums got us thinking… what are our top album opening songs of all time – by ANY band? Some of our answers just might surprise you!
