#198 Year of Our Riff Lord: 1987
Thursday Jun 08, 2023
Thursday Jun 08, 2023
“Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”
- 1987. That sounds like a very long time ago, but here’s a few events that will provide some perspective. 1987 marked the time of the Black Monday stock market crash, the FDA approval of Prozac, the first sighting of The Simpsons on television, WrestleMania III at the Pontiac Silverdome, and the release of Guns N’ Roses debut album, Appetite For Destruction. Additionally, many of us were deep in the throes of our own budding pubescence (and/or pube-essence) in 1987.
1987 also marked a time when the popularity and intensity of thrash began to grow ever more popular, clawing its way to the top of the mountain as one of the most transformative and powerful subgenres in all of heavy metal. And in 1987, our heavy metal horizons were just beginning to blossom and expand, gradually guiding us towards heavier, faster, and darker metal music than we had ever experienced before.
Discover the most perfect example of a “flan” from 1987 and listen to the sexiest backmasking you’ve ever heard in your life (courtesy of the “hi-fidelity ghosts” that haunt Bunkerpoon Manor). It’s time to take out your “squid dentures” and get “razor tight” while learning about our “guilty pleasures”, including the reasons why $18 is (sometimes) too much and there’s no such thing as “free bags” in the less fortunate parts of the planet. Get ready to know our “third favorite ‘South Paw’ guitarist”, come hang out with your wang out and JOIN US in The Bunkerpoon Retro-Lounge as we celebrate The Year of Our Riff Lord: 1987.

#197 BLACK SABBATH SABOTAGE Album Dive
Thursday Jun 01, 2023
Thursday Jun 01, 2023
“You are Number 6…”
There’s a t-shirt somewhere that perfectly sums up the philosophy of life, which is as follows:
“You can only trust yourself and the first six Black Sabbath albums.”
After 4 brutally brilliant albums of heavy metal doom & gloom, and one with a greater focus on more progressive music and experimental soundscapes, BLACK SABBATH finally managed to blend every facet of their sonic sorcery together into a single work that perfectly represents the epitome of their signature sound on their 6th studio record, SABOTAGE.
It’s time to “forthcomingly” break out “the good gummies” and find out which creamy condiment is even worse than mayonnaise (“That’s different!”). Prepare to go “Junt Huntin’” for the gals with the “Junt Jorts” and discover what it means “When the Levee Breaks” on a date after embracing your bucket list “a little bit” and JOIN US as we dive into the culmination of every good thing about BLACK SABBATH captured in one place with their 6th record, SABOTAGE.

“It was everything I loved about my teen years…”
The 2023 KLASH OF THE TITANS NORTH AMERICAN TOUR (featuring SpiritWorld, Death Angel, Sepultura, and Kreator) which recently graced the stage at The Masquerade in Atlanta, Georgia is easily one of THE most perfect thrash shows we’ve ever experienced. It was “100% bone across the board” and that rating applies to EVERYTHING: the venue, the merch, the bars, the bathrooms, the sound system, the lead-up music, and (without question) the line-up, featuring 3 of the biggest names in thrash to come out of the 80’s that are still kicking copious amounts of buttocks today.
It’s time to submerge yourself into complete thrash metal “feroshness” and embrace your “inner caveman” as we reminisce about the “Night of the Doppelgangers” and the reason you “don’t touch the rail”. Prepare to receive guidance regarding your post show meal (because “creamy bad”), discover the identity of “The Atlanta Metal Druid” and JOIN US for the most comprehensive concert review in the metalverse as we pay homage and give thanks to the KLASH OF THE TITANS.

#195 MESHUGGAH - Inside The Metal
Thursday May 18, 2023
Thursday May 18, 2023
“They’ve got HUGE djunts!”
MESHUGGAH, the Nordic Godfathers of Djent (“Djunt”) hailing from Umea, Sweden, sound like the logical evolution of extreme metal to emerge out of the early 90’s thrash scene. Tempered with their own surgically precise, ferociously complex, polyrhythmic brand of math metal genius, MESHUGGAH have carved out their own unique place in metal by blending their unmistakable signature style with all the best elements of thrash metal, death metal, and extremely technical, progressive, groove metal into a potent new subgenre known simply as “djent” (or “djunt” as it is lovingly known in the Bunkerpoon).
Get ready to enjoy “a perfect pour” and more “djunts” than you can shake a stick at as we decipher some “mind-blowing” misheard lyrics from the King of Pop while enjoying some al fresco dining at “The Front Door Café”. Prepare to experience the most horrifically ironic yet comedically perfect timing in history (because “you can’t like everything”) and understand that there are some albums where “you just don’t skip” a track. JOIN US as we plunge deep INSIDE THE METAL to better understand why Count von Count is the world’s biggest superfan of the 3-plus decades of brutally progressive djent genius known as MESHUGGAH.

#194 JUST TALKIN’ SHIT-TAH - Vol. III
Thursday May 11, 2023
Thursday May 11, 2023
“Everything’s LITERALLY ‘literally’…”
It’s time to blow out the lines again, which means anything goes! And by “anything” we LITERALLY mean anything, including possibly the worst Aussie accent ever attempted. For the record, we humbly apologize (in advance) to our Australian and/or New Zealand listeners (and/or bolth) as well as the good people of “Old Zealand” where the accent (and climate) is completely different AND gum chewing is something of an obsession.
It’s time to get in your “Trans Am vans” & gear up for some “mutant recipes”, including a field trip down to The Main Stage (located directly adjacent to The Rib Lounge down on COTLOD Blvd) where we’ll check out some “old school strippers who love old school metal” and test drive their new “Flapmonster” French Dip lunch special while pondering the manifestation of impromptu, HOA hostile, deathcore concerts (complete with a “juntload of junts”) along with “the perfect soundtrack” for our upcoming “Ayahuasca Chronicles” series and a ton of other titillating topics.

#193 INSIDE THE METAL - SYSTEM OF A DOWN
Thursday May 04, 2023
Thursday May 04, 2023
SYSTEM OF A DOWN, the Glendale, California quartet who dominated the “Alt + Nu” metal landscape from 1998 to 2005 before going on hiatus, are one of the most uniquely incomparable & original bands of the early 2000s. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, S.O.A.D. are the heavy metal equivalent of “a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma”, a musical force beyond classification or genre. The only thing that is absolutely certain about SYSTEM OF A DOWN is that no other band in metal sounds anything like them.
Get ready to “get spit roasted” and prepare to “transmute all the evil into good” with our new “signature cologne” that’s pending promotion on proctology podcasts everywhere. It’s time to roll those R’s and be ready to receive “the whistle finger” to avoid getting proctologized before your time and JOIN US as we embrace the Armenian masters of heavy metal ASMR and go deep INSIDE THE METAL with SYSTEM OF A DOWN.

#192 AC/DC POWERAGE Album Dive
Thursday Apr 27, 2023
Thursday Apr 27, 2023
AC/DC’s 1978 banger, POWERAGE (pronounced like voltage, amperage, and sausage; NOT like volt-AGE, amper-AGE, or saus-AGE) is undoubtedly one of “the most 1978 sounding” albums that has ever been released in rock and metal. And after giving it a listen, you’ll undoubtedly agree.
It’s the first album to feature Cliff Williams on bass, the first album to not have a title track and (perhaps most importantly) it’s the favorite AC/DC album of both Keith Richards and Edward Van Halen. Relative to the rest of their catalog, POWERAGE is quite simply an album beyond comparison.
Prepare to plug in “all three inputs” and remember that “you gotta bro up before you glow up” when talking to your “uncle cousin” (even if he “identifies as a noun”). Behold the advancements in “alien technology”, accept the “invitation” of embracing the uniqueness of the moment and JOIN US for the incomparable 1978-ness of AC/DC’s POWERAGE.

#191 Stoner Metal Vol. VI - 420 SUPER SPECIAL
Thursday Apr 20, 2023
Thursday Apr 20, 2023
For anyone out there who identifies as a “cannabis person” on any level, even if that means just being a fan of STONER METAL, then we cordially invite you to our 420 SUPER SPECIAL to partake of a small sampling of the myriad of stoner metal strains which are available to you.
There’s some 70’s style stoner metal, some actual 1970’s stoner metal, some stoner metal that’s tuned down so low the strings are “flappin in the breeze”, and there’s even what some might refer to as stoner thrash metal. Basically, there are as many stoner metal bands and stoner metal subgenres as there are cannabis dispensaries, strains, and methods of consumption (at least in the states and places where legal access has already been “greenlit”).
Get yourself a generous sniff of the bag, prepare to load up and blaze up some “loudness” via your preferred “relaxer delivery method” of choice to be passed around to “Indica Man, Sativa Boy & Captain Hybrid”, remember the rules regarding proper rotation etiquette while in the smokers’ circle and JOIN US on this, our 6th installment of the Marc Potterson Chronicles and a very special 420 SUPER SPECIAL. Get ready for STONER METAL, VOL. VI.

#190 METALLICA KILL’EM ALL Album Dive
Thursday Apr 13, 2023
Thursday Apr 13, 2023
July 25, 1983: the day that changed heavy metal forever.
There are certain turning points in heavy metal that simply cannot be denied. KILL ‘EM ALL, the debut album from the mighty METALLICA, is without question the first shot fired in the sonic revolution of heavy metal that would ultimately come to be known as the point of origin for thrash metal. Heavier, faster, and more aggressive than anything else at the time, the release of KILL ‘EM ALL completely changed the game.
It's time to prepare for a zoom call with “Zulu and Zuul” to better understand the subtle nuances between the “junt-junts” and the “flan-nahs”, find out which Metallica song was the first to have keyboards and acoustic guitars, always remember that “junts are for metal” and JOIN US as we discuss the debut album that did for thrash metal what Black Sabbath’s debut album did for heavy metal: it’s a 40th anniversary dive into METALLICA’s KILL ‘EM ALL.

#189 Building the Perfect LOAD - METALLICA
Thursday Apr 06, 2023
Thursday Apr 06, 2023
After touring a crapload for The Black Album and effectively unloading their classic thrash sound from the 80’s, METALLICA released LOAD in June of 1996 and RELOAD in November of 1997 (same sessions, different loads). The original intent was for “The Loads” to be released as a double album (aka “One Massive Load”), but since there was concern that so much new material released at once might be “too much to swallow”, potentially overloading fans, LOAD & RELOAD were released separately as two distinct loads, united as one.
While there are lingering hints of The Black Album era across both of “The Loads”, these 2 records sound like absolutely nothing else in the band’s entire catalog. Loaded up with various sonic experimentations, including 70’s classic rock, country, and even some slight stoner metal style riffs, “The Loads” are definitely a different flavor and texture for that little old thrash band from the Bay Area.
Get your relaxers ready because it’s time to “get swole” and find out which STD might help boost your self-esteem. Time to find yourself a nice “Icelandic chick”, take a load off, prepare to experience a very different version of METALLICA and JOIN US as we engage in the arduous task of BUILDING THE PERFECT LOAD.
