TRAPPO's Old Music Showcase has returned at long last with a brand-new deep dive on some vintage music goodness! This time around, we're taking a closer look at the psychedelic rock movement from the 1960s by discussing a pair of also-rans that never quite found mainstream success in their time: 1967's self-titled debut album from Nirvana (the original UK Nirvana) and 1968's "Peak Impressions" from Boston, MA's The Freeborne. It's a wild ride, dear listener!

Join the conversation! Tell us what you think of old school psychedelic rock, share some of your favorite examples of the genre, or just tell us whatever else is on your mind. Direct those thoughts to our official blog (CLICK HERE) in the form of a lovely comment. Or you can send those thoughts to us via a sexy email (CLICK HERE), and we'll probably be your friend for life. TRAPPO is also on social media, so follow us on Threads (CLICK HERE) and we'll have a blast shit-posting until the cows come home, whenever that may be.

Thanks for listening!

We're back with another dose of fresh new music for your big, dumb ears! This time around, we're presenting you with Great Haunting, the sophomore album from Kiwi Goth rockers Earth Tongue! Is it worth your precious and valuable time? Tune in to find out, dear listener!

But the answer is "yes".

Join the conversation! Tell us what you think of Earth Tongue's cool music! Maybe recommend some cool new music to us! That would be cool. Just visit the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE) and leave us some comments! You could also share your thoughts in a badass email (CLICK HERE) if you're feeling a bit more verbose, which is always appreciated. TRAPPO's also killing it on Threads (CLICK HERE), so follow us there and we can have some fun together while our society circles the drain!

Thus the long-prophesied Danzig Chronicles begin.

That's right, kids. We're talking about DANZIG, 1988's debut album from Glenn Danzig's band Danzig. Is it any good? Has it stood the test of time? You'll need to listen to our scintillating analysis of the album to find out! So do that!

Join the conversation! Tell us what you think about Glenn Danzig and his music. Or anything else, really. Just talk to us. We're ever so lonely. Visit the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE) and leave some comments. Recommend some cool new music or movies or a neat book. Tell us how much we suck. Share some delicious family recipes. Whatever's on your mind. You could also send us an email (CLICK HERE) if you're feeling particularly frisky, so that would be cool.

We're also on social media... kind of. We're on Threads. Sometimes. We're on Threads some of the time. So join us on Threads (CLICK HERE) and follow us and bask in our shit-posting glory until we inevitably get tired of pretending to be nice people and decide to shun social media entirely, deleting our Threads account and moving on with our miserable lives.

Thanks for listening, and God bless Glenn Danzig.

TRAPPO's Mail Bag is back! It's the show that talks about you on purpose, and this is the fabulous thirty-second instalment!

This time, we're assaulted with a series of bizarre anonymous comments that may or may not have been written by a brain-damaged wizard, there's a little "Deadly Dan" fallout, some eclectic music recommendations are made, TRAPPO sucks, we don't discuss the music of Taylor Swift, extreme examples of abstinence are debated, the ghost of Babe Ruth haunts us all once again, we ramble about assorted chocolates, and a whole bunch of other stuff is also mentioned. You should listen to it.

Perhaps you should send us an email sometime. We've been waiting all this time, after all. CLICK HERE to do that. You don't have to be Bimmy to send us an email, but it helps.

We're also on social media. Barely. So if you'd like to jump on this sinking ship, feel free to follow us on Threads (CLICK) and Instagram (CLICK) and we'll all sing song and tell spooky stories around the campfire while the world around us slowly dies! It'll be fun!

In an effort to raise the level of discourse among our dwindling listener base, TRAPPO recently subscribed to The Criterion Channel and are now periodically reviewing some of the amazing films showcased on said channel. We've begun this harrowing journey by discussing 1962's gonzo political drama(?) The World's Greatest Sinner, the brainchild of legendary unhinged character actor Timothy Carey.

You can currently stream The World's Greatest Sinner on The Criterion Channel, and you should definitely do that at your earliest convenience.

Join the conversation! Just head on over to the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE) and tell us what you think of The World's Greatest Sinner, the life and work of Timothy Carey, or whatever else is on your mind. Is there something amazing on The Criterion Channel that you'd like to see us discuss?
