Episode 392: He Is Legend, Torche, Immortal Bird 2019 Album Reviews + Mireplaner Bandcamp Pick

Day Drinking and Head Banging

Brian was up visiting Nick for the weekend when this episode was recorded and, actually, it’s the first time this year it happened. The show doesn’t really go down any differently, but it’s still fun for us.  It also gets us to plan ahead better, so a lot of that happened! Like you care…

Episode 363: Pig Destroyer, Deicide, Aborted 2018 Album Reviews + Nebraska Bandcamp Pick: Soselo

Let’s Get Dangerous…

…or not.  It really depends on which of these albums you gravitate to the most.  “But guys, all of these bands are ‘dangerous’,” you are likely saying to your computer.  Well, yeah, they should be, but – as far as we are concerned – that isn’t the case this time around.

Pig Destroyer – Head Cage (Relapse)
Deicide – Overtures of Blasphemy (Century Media)
Aborted – TerrorVision (Century Media)

Episode 351: Orange Goblin, ASG, Gyre 2018 Album Reviews + Arkansas Bandcamp Pick: All Is At An End

Spark It Up

We almost took a break from Death Metal this week, but we apparently can’t keep away from it!  Our three main album reviews, however, are devoid of the brutality.  They make up for that in riffs…and stoner vibes.

SideShow.351

Orange Goblin – The Wolf Bites Back (Candlelight)
ASG – Survive Sunrise (Relapse)
​Gyre – Shared Visions
