Metal Nerdery Podcast

September 29, 1986:

 

By this point in time, nearly 2 years had passed since the release of Powerslave and nearly a year had passed since Live After Death was released, commemorating the World Slavery Tour of 1984-1985 that cemented IRON MAIDEN as one of the most legendary bands in all of metal. And just like with any other advancements forward impacting time and technology, SOMEWHERE IN TIME, their 6^th studio album (and the first to include, wait for it: guitar synths) proved to be a quantum leap forward into the future sound of their brand of progressive metal, with enough ambiance and atmosphere to give the album a sound that feels very futuristic and modern, yet also sounds perfectly at home in 1986.

 

Always remember to take an “insurance pee” before engaging in any time travel activities and be sure to “slow down” and take a moment to “pump your own gravy” (even if you felt “barely bothered” to do so at the time) and JOIN US as we dive into one of the most “timeless” albums in Maiden’s history, complete with guitar synthesizers and more multi-layered guitar harmonies than you could shake an interdimensional scepter at as we dive into the wormhole of metal and travel elsewhere (and elsewhen) with IRON MAIDEN, SOMEWHERE IN TIME.

If you were to blend the dark, heavy riffs of Sabbath & Zeppelin with the straight-ahead power of AC/DC and then add the incredible vocal crooning style of The Doors’ frontman Jim Morrison, mixing everything with a generous infusion of punk rock angst and Halloween themed, gothic horror vibes to tie it all together, the end result would be DANZIG, the “modern classic” sounding “horror metal” band fronted by GLENN DANZIG (formerly of Misfits & Samhain).

 

Prepare to enjoy yourself some quality horror croon from deep within the Bunkerpoon and head downstairs for some “dingle, dangle (followed by a liberal dose of ‘mind bleach’)” so you can finally comprehend what “between your cheek and gum” actually means while “making mugshots great again…so they can nay-nay” when you JOIN US  as we dig deep into “The Johnny Cash of Metal” and dive into the eerie, inky-black darkness of DANZIG - Inside The Metal:  The 80’s & 90’s.

The 1970’s is one of the greatest decades in the history of the development of modern metal. Back in the 70’s, it was not at all uncommon to get 2 albums from the same artist within the same year! During the 70’s, you’d drop the needle on the record, turn on the lava lamps and the black lights, indulge in your preferred relaxer of choice, and be instantly transported to an alternate dimension of sonic bliss where, again, it was not at all uncommon to have the entire first side of an album consist of one song, especially when listening to RUSH and their trailblazing, early progressive metal output from the 1970’s.

 

Get ready to hear “one of the angriest riffs of 1976” while enjoying one of the most mind blowing “one take wonder” epics of all time with a massive “priapism of percussion” (aka “drumbone”). Prepare to learn about our 3-point plan to make the world a better place (including “fireproof trees”) and JOIN US as we extend our gratitude to the Godfathers of Progressive Metal hailing from the Great White North: the multi-instrumental, multi-tentacled (and multi-lingual) genius of Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart: the “Holy Triumvirate” aka the Toronto Prog Wizards known collectively as RUSH, as we go Inside The Metal, 70’s Style!

“Let it ring out…okay turn it off now…”

Way back “during the late 1900’s” (1998 to be precise), METALLICA released an updated volume of various cover songs by various artists of their youth via GARAGE INC., a 2-disc set (that’s compact disc, btw:  those were still pretty popular “during the late 1900’s”) including one disc of brand new cover tunes and one disc including the original $5.98 EP: Garage Days Re-Revisited, along with a various assortment of B-sides, one-offs, and previously unreleased material from throughout their career.

Get ready to hear what happens when A. Listener engages A.I., discover “a rare Lars guitar solo” that we previously missed, and find out how long it takes to become “completely annoying” (apparently, it’s not as long as we’d thought). It’s time to know what happens whenever you sip water “with a bone in it” and prepare to be “blinded by the YEAH!” as you witness the power of the “secret missile” and JOIN US for the 2-record set that redeemed METALLICA for The Loads as we dive into GARAGE INC.

It’s always a treat to talk about “hometown” metal, especially when it’s one of the heaviest, most modern, progressive metal bands in the entire genre. Actually, to call them “prog” might be a bit misleading, although “progressive” is certainly an apropos descriptor for the shared artistic odyssey which Brann Dailor, Brent Hinds, Bill Kelliher, and Troy Sanders (collectively known as MASTODON) had embarked upon more than 20 years ago and are still going strong with no sign of stopping any time soon.

 

Perhaps the more accurate description of MASTODON is “Atlanta’s own shamans of megalithic, caveman powered, super technical, stoner sludge prog metal” (and any other applicable subgenres we might’ve missed).

 

It's time to get “in the loop” and fully comprehend the best way NOT to drive down Blood Mountain to minimize vehicular induced toddler vomitus whilst mentally preparing to welcome “B.G.” to the “T&T Main Stage” as we do our best to “MRFA” while screaming excerpts from “Brave Tales of Taintler” into the “echo chamber” as you JOIN US for the “pure girth” of MASTODON Inside The Metal (ATL-Edition), Chapter 1: The Aughts (2000-2009).

With a little guidance from Loudwire’s Dumbest Best Metal Band Names listicle, we decided to take the offramp into the offbeat and investigate the most off-kilter, ODDBALL metal bands with the most outlandish names and over the top aesthetics ever to bless metal. 

 

Whether it’s the band’s look, their theme, or the simple hilarity of “what’s in a name” (including, but not limited to: band name, album name, and/or song name), there’s certainly some incredibly wonderful, warped weirdness which dwells along the wild & wacky fringes near the outskirts of mainstream metal.

 

Get ready to discover the shared sensibilities of ladies and bowling balls and find out who should definitely NOT go swimming during Shark Week (especially if they are “experiencing their own personal shark week”). It’s time to get yourself a “vacation rental” and get ready to “put on your Magnum P.I. shirt” and pick up some crabcakes from that “hole in the wall” place further down the beach and JOIN US as we rundown Loudwire’s Dumbest Best Metal Band Names listicle and explore some of the most glorious ODDBALL WEIRDNESS in all of metal.

Less than a year after the release of the crushingly heavy & near flawless masterpiece known as their self-titled debut album, LED ZEPPELIN released their sophomore follow up, LED ZEPPELIN II, on the 22th and the 31th of October 1969 (in the US & UK, respectively). While something of a departure from the blues-centric focus of their debut, LED ZEPPELIN II included a significant refinement and enhancement of their overall sound, including new instrumental arrangements, song structures, lyrical imagery, and most notably: a guitar solo AND a drum solo!

 

Prepare to learn the identity of “The John Bonham of Thrash”, discover why “Juicy Banana” would have been a more anatomically accurate song title (unless it was more about girth than length) and why “magma hoof” sounds incredibly hot, exotic, and dangerous. It’s time to turn that “hammer knockin’” stereo all the way to loud, crank up the black lights and lava lamps in the mancave, break out your bowl of relaxers, “bring back the ‘original’ original formula” and JOIN US as we dive into the sophomore slam that is LED ZEPPELIN II.

Given the recent release & fanfare surrounding the remixed and remasterized 40^th anniversary edition of LIVE EVIL, the “first official” live album from metal founding fathers BLACK SABBATH and the last official album to feature RONNIE JAMES DIO on vocals (until 1992 anyway), we felt obliged to share our own personal experiences regarding LIVE EVIL, from our first listen until now.

 

With a setlist including a balanced mix of classic Ozzy era tracks blended with the more recent Dio era tracks from MOB RULES & HEAVEN AND HELL, it’s certainly a live album that any fan of Black Sabbath, Ronnie James Dio, and/or live concert albums in general, should have in their collection.

 

Being that this is a “LIVE DIVE”, this episode is definitely BIG. Prepare to discover what might just be “the perfect beer” and understand that there’s definitely a BIG difference between “Brewering and Breuering”.  Get ready to “poon the peen” as you bear witness to the latest collab between “Ron Jeremy and Sammy Hagar” and find out how little it takes to entertain us in a BIG way. Call up your “fluff person” for some BIG “bonus hole” maintenance and JOIN US in the Bunkerpoon as we reflect on 40 years of LIVE EVIL from the mighty and powerful (and also BIG) BLACK SABBATH.

QOTSA, aka QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, began back in the late “Nineteen Hundreds” in Seattle, Washington following the breakup of Josh Homme’s former band, desert metal legends Kyuss. With a wide array of sonic textures, layers, and sound design sorcery ingrained within their music, as with Kyuss, QOTSA is another prime example of a band whose albums should be listened to and enjoyed via headphones (and if we’re being honest, since “this show is about honesty”, a healthy infusion of relaxers will help to further enhance this experience).

It’s time to realize which nationality’s coitus “sounds delicious” and understand that the pain of regret from a disappointing high gravity brew rivals the pain of regret that comes from copping a squat “on your balls”.  Prepare to bear witness to one of the greatest alcohol “collabs” ever imagined and discover the powerful allure of food truck fare when you JOIN US as we get outside the desert and go inside the metal with none other than QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE.

This episode is dedicated to one of a handful of times in thrash metal history where the first two albums have two totally different singers, giving the illusion of two totally different “first new albums”. And since this is an episode of firsts, we felt that diving into BONDED BY BLOOD (the first album with Paul Baloff on vocals) and PLEASURES OF THE FLESH (the first album with Steve “Zetro” Souza on vocals) together would be an excellent way to compare and contrast the mighty thrash power of Big Five Thrash Masters EXODUS and offer the perfect opportunity to hear the evolution of the band’s sound (from first to first, as it were) and get a better feel for the profound stylistic progression between these two uniquely distinctive debuts (with Baloff  & Souza, respectively).

 

It's time to understand what happens when you’re “hangin’ your dangle” off the boat to “air dry” while simultaneously adjusting your “shutter speed” and aperture.  Hopefully “the sheilas” and the djentlemen are both listening so they can behold the “gummified” horror that unfolds “when the bag of syrup is almost out” and JOIN US for this double dive of EXODUS firsts, with Baloff’s BONDED BY BLOOD & Souza’s PLEASURES OF THE FLESH.
