099: Slayer South Of Heaven Album Dive
Thursday Jul 15, 2021
Thursday Jul 15, 2021
Imagine the following scenario: you are one of the most powerful names in all of Thrash and are tasked with releasing a follow-up to your own unmatched, game changing, genre defining, masterpiece.
Do you:
A: do what’s “safe” and duplicate what you’ve already perfected (*yawn*)?
OR
B: continue to evolve and expand your sonic palette by changing your approach?
Thankfully, SLAYER went with option B, toning down the sonic chaos and breakneck speed of REIGN IN BLOOD with darker, slower, heavier riffs and an even creepier lyrical vibe.
JOIN US as we interview Kerry King’s beard (just kidding; his beard couldn’t be reached for comment) and immerse ourselves into the brooding and sinister evilocity of SLAYER’s sophomore Def Jam release, SOUTH OF HEAVEN.

098: 1988 Metal and Thrash Albums
Thursday Jul 08, 2021
Thursday Jul 08, 2021
Metal Prophecy states that TB4 (The Big 4) made a pact with TAI (The Almighty Iommi) to unite like some ginormous Voltronesque Thrash Beast for the furtherance and advancement of Thrash (and really, ALL Metal, but mostly, REALLY Thrash) to a new frontier (or perhaps even “a new level”, you might say…) of unheralded, unmatched power. The prophecy required that each of TB4 release an album of their latest and finest work during the same designated Gregorian based calendar year: 1988.
1988 was THE year of The Big 4 (are you (KK) kidding? That’s “not even” (KK) up for debate!), THE rise of “the next wave” of Thrash (ummm (KK) Testament, (KK) Forbidden, (KK) Death Angel MUCH!?), and THE dawn of a “new” Pantera (that’s right…OUR (KK) PanterA!!!).
Subtract 3 decades to reach TAOTBA (The Age of The Black Album), subtract another 3 years to reach TAOTAMP (The Age of the Aforementioned Metal Prophecy) and then solve for the variable of WHY the words “Bon Jovi” were EVER uttered within our 33rd Floor Bunker P00n Inversion Studio airspaces before you JOIN US as we embrace the year of the audiogasm in Thrash (and also “other” Metal) and celebrate the YORL (Year of Our Riff Lord) in Metal that could only be 1988!!!
*KK=This post made proudly bland courtesy of Kancel Kulture and the wreckless censorship of mouth farts in print (aka “WORDS”). Just kidding, it’s those kuss words (mouth farts) that hurt their feelers. This is just dumb, passive-aggressive nonsense that has nothing to do with the original post, but we thank you for reading onward. Please, Go Listen…Metal Nerdery Podcast is on ALL platforms wherever podcasts are available and its actually way funner than reading, although there are also show notes available that you can read along to, too, that are often mystical, hilarious, and even insightful (assuming you can read. If not, find someone who can read to you for you.) Yeah, we’ve planned for everything!! (And you’re also welcome, btw.) Oh yeah, THANK YOU for listening!!! It means an awful bunch. And if you could send us some relaxers through the gum app, we’d appreciate it. #TallDenmarkian is the account. Don’t worry, Lars already knows what’s up. Thanks. We hope you enjoy the show.

097: Zakk Sabbath
Thursday Jul 01, 2021
Thursday Jul 01, 2021
Purple and Orange.
While it might sound like the name of some evolutionarily engineered super strain of relaxers, purple and orange perfectly describes the chromesthesia generated by the sound of "VERTIGO", the 50th anniversary tribute to Black Sabbath's crushing 1970 self-titled debut and also the first new album by ZAKK SABBATH.
Fire up those black lights & lava lamps, roll another bowl of whatever relaxerole best suits your mood and JOIN US as we embrace the purple and orange sonic bliss generated by the most powerful and tangentionally authentical Black Sabbath tribute band in the entire multiverse.

096: Top 10 Thrash Albums of 1989
Thursday Jun 24, 2021
Thursday Jun 24, 2021
For the year that gave us dial-up internet, Global Positioning System satellites, and "Seinfeld", 1989 gave us an equally legendary year in Thrash (and that's including Metallica's absurd Grammy "loss" to Jethro Tull. Insert retroactively-effective kancel-kulture tantrum-sigh here.)
JOIN US and behold the painstaking craftsmanship and delicately balanced relaxer levels required to manifest such a totally subjective, potentially speculative, and muchly suspective lysticle as METAL NERDERY PODCAST'S TOP 10 THRASH ALBUMS OF 1989.

Thursday Jun 17, 2021
Thursday Jun 17, 2021
The San Francisco Bay Area is a sacred place in thrash, birthplace to many legendary (and muchly important) thrash bands and equally lauded (which means muchly awesome) thrash albums.
FABULOUS DISASTER, the 3rd release from Bay Area Thrash Lords EXODUS is, without question, very muchly one of those albums. And EXODUS is, also without question, also very muchly one of those bands. In fact, this may be one of THE MUCHLIEST thrash albums of 1989 (more on that later…muchly more).
Go ahead and get your orders phoned in for Ron’s signature Emerald Triangle Jalapeno Relaxers (they’re muchly delicious), pop the above-mentioned cassette in the tape deck of your low rider on side 1 while you channel your internal Cheech-energy and JOIN US as we salute one of the finest moments of late 80’s-era thrash in existence.

094: Motorhead
Thursday Jun 10, 2021
Thursday Jun 10, 2021
“We’re MOTORHEAD and we play rock ‘n’ roll…” -Lemmy Kilmister.
It has been said that if you go to the Rainbow Bar & Grill in West Hollywood, sit down at the bar, and order a Jack & Coke, the spirit of LEMMY KILMISTER will manifest as a cloud of cigarette smoke and tell you to get out of “his spot”.
For over 4 decades, MOTORHEAD pummeled fans with their abrasive, uncompromising brand of metal fueled by speed, attitude, and vice, firmly securing their place at the base of the foundation that helped shape the burgeoning New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement.

093: The Sword
Thursday Jun 03, 2021
Thursday Jun 03, 2021
THE SWORD is truly a blessing. Blending the crushing heaviness and urgency of their own cutting-edge brand of doom metal with the cosmic feel of classic 70’s style prog-rock, THE SWORD has carved out their own place in the pantheon of modern metal.
Set your relaxer levels to “wormhole” (don’t make it weird), check out the name of The Rib Lounge’s new house band (it’s actually even weirder than “wormhole” if you can believe it, although you’re probably still stuck on “wormhole”) and JOIN US as we time travel through the multi-verse to sample but a slice of the doom-prog metal genius of that little old band from Austin.
HAIL THE SWORD.

092: Machine Head Overview/Sampler
Thursday May 27, 2021
Thursday May 27, 2021
After grunge all but sucked the life out of thrash while at its zenith in the early 90’s (I mean, it “didn’t”, but it also kinda “did”, y’know?), the landscape had been forever altered and “thrash metal” as we previously knew it had been forever transformed, now with greater attention to groove, swagger, and swing (and let’s not forget those sublimely sick breakdowns! HFS!!!).
While still employing the same rifftactical utility belt genius he used in his former band VIO-LENCE, thrash master ROBB FLYNN updated his first wave thrash palette with the groove and raw attitude of the day to forge his own aggro-groove-thrash creation with MACHINE HEAD, blazing a path forward into the “next wave” of American thrash like a welder’s torch set to 11.
There’s a reason the number 6 is important (you’ll soon find out, much to your chagrin), but first you’ll need to phone in your order for Ron’s Signature Pork & Jalapeno infused relaxers (call now!) and JOIN US as we sample the aggro-thrash goodness that is MACHINE HEAD.

091: Canadian Metal
Thursday May 20, 2021
Thursday May 20, 2021
Behold, the frosty arctic tundra that is The Great White North. Also known as Canada, or as geography enthusiasts sometimes call it: "Extremely Northern North America".
If the endless snow packed landscapes and brutal arctic frigidity of The Great White North have taught our Canadian friends anything it's how to stay warm by utilizing the power of Metal. Seriously, don't deny the permafrost melting, aurora generating power of Canadian Metal.
It's time to put on your tuque, phone in your order to The Rib Lounge for the family sized portion of Marc Emery's "special" poutine infused relaxers and JOIN US as we sample but a wafer-thin sliver of the abundant Metal offerings created by our upstairs neighbors next door (and/or our next door upstairs neighbors) as Metal Nerdery salutes the Metal of Canada.

090: DEATH and the multi splendored genius of CHUCK SCHULDINER
Thursday May 13, 2021
Thursday May 13, 2021
Certain names in Metal are uttered in hushed tones of reverence, as if belonging to godlike, super-advanced creatures from other dimensions. Such respect and reverence are deserving of genre defining prodigies and artists who are often light-years ahead of their own time. In this instance, we’re referring to The Riff Lord Wizard sent to further evolutionize Metal to yet another level of genius rifftactical badassery:
Enter (and HAIL) CHUCK SCHULDINER.
“The Godfather of Death Metal” helped spawn an entirely new genre of metal, blending all of the best elements of progressive and thrash metal while simultaneously intensifying the technicality, musicianship, and profound, thought-provoking lyricism (already inherently part of bolth genres) with beautifully precise craftsmanship and flawlessly executed production. (And to think, at the time, we just thought it was the next wave of Thrash…Nope. This was CHUCK SCHULDINER. This was DEATH. THIS was the dawn of Death Metal!)
Grab your train-whistle and blow off that morning meeting (really, you’ll be better once you’re fully relaxerized and caffeinated anyway), because after you phone in your order for Ron’s signature Nacho Relaxerole you’re gonna wanna JOIN US as we talk about the multi splendored genius of CHUCK SCHULDINER and DEATH.
