  • DMA #197: "Reinventing the Steel" by Pantera

    About 6 weeks ago, Nik was in Joe's Records STL and there was a copy of this album that was 30 or 40 percent off. As there was nothing else to buy, it ended up in the Glacially Musical World Headquarters.

    He then decided it was time to subject Duncan to this lost album. Join them as they dig into the last album by the OG Pantera line up.

  • DMA #195: "Penguin" by Fleetwood Mac

    What do you know about Fleetwood Mac?

    I'm sure you've heard Rumours and the rest of the stuff featuring Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham, but did you know that there was also a Blues Era of the band?

    Well, if you love English Blues, this episode isn't for you because there was also this weird transitional period and that's what we're talking about today!

  • DMA 194: "Black Rose" by Thin Lizzy

    In what's either their last classic or first non-classic record, Thin Lizzy, buttressed by Guitar Legend Gary Moore, drop Black Rose.

    It's the only record Moore played on.

    Check it out with Nik and Duncan.

  • DMA #193: "Head" by The Monkees

    This week Nik and Duncan decided to do a look in on Head by the Monkees. Lots of people my age don't recall that this movie even existed.

    But ask yourself what would happen if Jack Nicholson, Carole King, and The Monkees were all in a room together?

    Then you can add in Stephen Stills for fun!

  • DMA 191: " Sermons of the Sinner" by KK's Priest

    This one might not be quite old enough to fit inside of our normal boxes, but in a fit of pique, it seemed like the right thing to do.

    Nik and Duncan take on the alternate world Judas Priest record written solely by KK Downing.

    Let's see if it's a spin it or bin it!
