#253 QUEENSRYCHE OPERATION: MINDCRIME - Album Dive
Thursday Jun 27, 2024
Thursday Jun 27, 2024
May 3, 1988, may just be the biggest, red-letter, landmark date in all of progressive metal, as it marks the release of QUEENSRYCHE’s 3rd studio album OPERATION: MINDCRIME, one of the finest concept albums in all of metal. It’s very much a “Pink Floyd meets heavy metal” style and vibe, and is quite a departure from their two previous albums (The Warning & Rage For Order), with a very “in your face” mix, some power metal overtones, and perhaps the most aggressive bass sound on a metal album EVER, which is weirdly ironic considering that QUEENSRYCHE was the weirdest opening band choice to open for the biggest thrash metal band on the planet (at the time) who had just released an album that, conversely, had the most absent bass sound on a metal album EVER. (Sometimes life is just way too weird…)
Remember that $25 was a small price to pay in 1988 to become “a happy man” even though “only YOU can make YOU happy” (because “you rent ‘em, you don’t buy ‘em”). Prepare to find out the answer to “which would be worse?”, discover where to go for any “gift ideas”, learn the identify of Matt’s doppelganger and hear about Russell’s “Mr. Miyagi moment”, including the resulting “truck trim” prior to making his transition from guitar player to bass player. Remember that “any band who mentions two thrash references on one album can’t be all that bad”, go get yourself a summer “skinjob” and JOIN US as we dive into one of the most world-renowned rock operas in all of metal with OPERATION: MINDCRIME.

#252 AC/DC FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK - Album Dive
Thursday Jun 20, 2024
Thursday Jun 20, 2024
Summary:
AC/DC’s follow-up to Back In Black, 1981’s FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK (WE SALUTE YOU), seems to have a heavier, darker, and doomier vibe than its legendary, multi-platinum predecessor. FTATR (WSY) is all about dynamics, as Robert John “Mutt” Lange’s production masterfully blends the sounds of Highway To Hell & Back In Black with just a touch of the old school Bon era, resulting in an album that’s louder, crispier, crunchier, and overall, pure FIRE! (Not to mention, it’s got frickin’ cannons on it!). And similarly, as with Back In Black, there is almost an interchangeable quality to it, as you could just as easily listen to Side 2 first and then listen to Side 1 (though, to be fair, Side 2 might actually be better than Side 1).
Always remember that there’s no such thing as “fat vampires” and “you can’t change your name once people are used to calling you what they’re used to calling you”. Get ready to do some “binge listening”, try to avoid doing “all that weird flippity stuff”, be sure to “have a nice June” while you’re “rubbing the canyon” and JOIN US as we dive into what may just be the finest album of the Brian Johnson era of AC/DC with FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK (WE SALUTE YOU).

#251 Side 2 - DEATH MATCH - MASTER OF PUPPETS vs REIGN IN BLOOD
Thursday Jun 13, 2024
Thursday Jun 13, 2024
We’ve already tackled Side One of our ’86 HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH featuring MOP & RIB (“Puppets & Blood”), and now it’s time to go through Side Two in order to reach our final verdict. As usual, there were difficult decisions to be made, and the deliberation was not easy, but we did it, and the only thing we can really say that will make any sense at all is that it’s really hard to compare two such incomparable albums that are as equally incredible yet vastly unique as tacos and spaghetti.
Get ready to find out how “left-handed guitar picks” can impact your playing and discover the mythical metal legend known as “Ozzy Dio”. It’s time to learn which song is “Slayer’s Enter Sandman” and become more familiarized with some of the more commonly used “country sayings” in the South that may or may not also apply to “fruit flies”. In short, “don’t be a fricker” and JOIN US for the nail-biting conclusion to our ’86 DEATH MATCH featuring Side Two of MASTER OF PUPPETS & REIGN IN BLOOD.

#250 DEATH MATCH - MASTER OF PUPPETS vs REIGN IN BLOOD
Thursday Jun 06, 2024
Thursday Jun 06, 2024
For those who haven’t been following the bouncing ball(s), we’ve been discussing the ’86 DEATH MATCH since we did our ’88 Death Match a few episodes back (which was a complete bloodbath all on its own!) so we decided “What better way to commemorate our 5th anniversary as ‘The Number 2 Podcast Ever’ (behind Rogan) than to pit the two finest albums in the totality of thrash metal history against each other…to the death!?”
If you thought our ’88 Death Match between …And Justice For All and South Of Heaven was brutal, you’d better take a “get ready pill”, because you ain’t seen nothing yet. As with each matchup in our HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH series, the stakes are raised ever higher & the carnage escalates exponentially, and our ’86 HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH featuring Metallica’s MASTER OF PUPPETS and Slayer’s REIGN IN BLOOD is undoubtedly no exception. This was certainly not an easy task. In truth, it was quite “hard…rigid…difficult…” and given the sheer enormity of the task at hand, it was also downright “girthy”. From the most unbelievably legendary album openers (and closers) to the most haunting album art of any albums in thrash history, one thing remains clear with both of these ferocious audio offerings: “the bar is set”.
Get ready to “mark ALL the times” and remember, even though this episode might be a tough pill to take for some, whatever you do, “don’t spit it out, just swallow it”. Prepare to “flatten the herd” and brace yourself for “moments of assholism” as we discuss “an eternal force that goes on forever” when you JOIN US for a day of celebration as we commemorate 5 years of Metal Nerdery madness with some “special guesteses” in The Bunkerpoon and go deep inside the octagon with our 1986 HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH featuring “the most powerfully majestic” metal of MASTER OF PUPPETS and the “Picasso devil” infused, thrash evilocity of REIGN IN BLOOD.

#249 - NEW YORK HARDCORE
Thursday May 30, 2024
Thursday May 30, 2024
Definitely “angsty” and undisputedly heavier, more aggressive, and focused than punk, NEW YORK HARDCORE (NYHC) emerged at a time when punk was on its way out and thrash was on its way into the heavy music scene, ultimately becoming a “de facto” bridge between the thrash and punk scenes and eventually bringing them both together to bless the metal world with the new genre known as crossover (insert “shameless” United Forces reference here).
It’s time to learn the best way to “lift weights” in the weight training community and discover how to avoid an unwelcome “updraft waft” that in no way resembles “a spring mountain day in Scotland”. Find out which band is “the Sabbath of thrash and the Zeppelin of metal” and behold the best Manscaped advertisement ever produced (which should hopefully keep us from becoming any more “off-putting and frankly, tiresome” than we already are) when you JOIN US as we look at the genre that helped to bridge the gap and unite the forces of punk and thrash: NEW YORK HARDCORE.

#248 SABBATH MOB RULES - Album Dive
Thursday May 23, 2024
Thursday May 23, 2024
“Is this the GOOD Sabbath or the BAD Sabbath?”
We know what you’re thinking: “Wait, didn’t they skip a few albums in there somewhere? Did they put them all on Patreon or…what happened?” Rest assured, nothing has been skipped, however, we did jump ahead a little bit because “some of us” have been jonesing to fast forward through the BLACK SABBATH catalog by 3 albums or so and time travel straight to 1981 and the release of MOB RULES, the final studio album (at the time) from the legendary Ronnie James Dio era of the band.
There’s a certain distinctive sonic difference between Heaven And Hell and MOB RULES, primarily with regard to production. While Heaven And Hell tends to have a more “Rainbow meets Ozzy Sabbath” sound to it, MOB RULES sounds much more like the first three Dio solo albums from the early 80’s, so much so that it almost sounds like it could pass as a Rainbow, BLACK SABBATH, or even Dio record. But, at the end of the day, if you had to say, “THIS album sounds like BLACK SABBATH with Dio”, the only correct answer would be MOB RULES.
Always remember that the difference between “hot ranch and ‘the smell of’ hot ranch” is as vast as the difference between a “frenulum piercing” and a “frenum piercing”. It’s high time we “right the wrongs” from a few episodes back and get “up close, pretty front” in order to understand that “the gravy’s got no giblets in it” when you JOIN US as we celebrate the most Ronnie James Dio sounding BLACK SABBATH album in heavy metal history as we dive into MOB RULES.

#247 OUR DEFINING METAL MOMENTS
Thursday May 16, 2024
Thursday May 16, 2024
The “Bunkerpoon After Dark” is a bit different than the usual Metal Nerdery Podcast format. It’s stripped down, bare, naked, and not unlike “The Triangle”, it’s unredacted, unfiltered, and completely raw. There’s not a lot of production quality, no shittah, no clinkies, and no beers of the episode, but it’s pure unbridled Metal Nerdery madness at its finest.
Think of this as a sample of the sort of “South American adult entertainment” you can expect from our Patreon episodes (which includes the now infamous “Hog Story”).
So, give this a listen, give us a call at 980-666-8182 and tell us about the most defining metal moments in your life and JOIN US (here AND on Patreon) for a taste of the Metal Nerdery Podcast “Bunkerpoon After Dark” Patreon Preview.

#246 - Metallica Covers
Thursday May 09, 2024
Thursday May 09, 2024
After catching Damage Inc. live in concert a few weeks back, we felt inspired to investigate the vast conglomeration of artists who have performed their own cover versions of songs originally written by the biggest cover band to have ever blessed heavy metal, the mighty METALLICA.
Even though METALLICA have come a long way from their old school “dirty thrash” sound, modern artists continue to create their own interpretations of songs from throughout METALLICA’s vast catalog. Whether it’s completely reimagined with an entirely different arrangement or a faithful, note perfect rendition of the original all the way down to the production nuances, there are endless possibilities as to what you might hear.
Always remember that “you eat and then shoot” because it’s important to “follow the instructions” to ensure things don’t “get out of hand”. Learn why “rolling your R’s” is an important social skill (especially when ordering at certain restaurants), get ready for some “brisket tips”, remain calm anytime you run out of “crème fraiche” or “the triangles are turning into rhombuses” and prepare to activate your laugh wheeze (“assuming we don’t get cancelled”) when you JOIN US as we give a listen to a veritable plethora of METALLICA COVERS.

#245 - SLEEP - Inside The Metal
Thursday May 02, 2024
Thursday May 02, 2024
Before OM and High On Fire, there was the marijuana infused, Sabbath worshipping, stoner metal power trio hailing from San Jose, California known as SLEEP. Just saying the name transports you to a land filled with THC infused riffs, the sweet aroma of sinsemilla, and enough smoke to indicate that the pyramid sized bong is fully loaded and ready to transport you to another dimension of audio stonerdom.
Imagine Black Sabbath (circa Master of Reality) time traveling to SLEEP’s jam room in the early 90’s and bestowing upon them the knowledge of “the riff filled land” over a freshly ignited bowl of greens. Now add some retro sounding equipment boosted with the power of modern-day technology, tune the guitars and bass down even further, add way more fuzz and balls with a generous portion of freshly harvested relaxers and you’ve got the modern-day equivalent of Black Sabbath in their prime. SLEEP is such a powerful force that they are one of the few bands in the history of stoner metal to have sonically recreated what being supernaturally high actually sounds like.
Prepare for the Weedian pilgrimage across the endless desert of time toward “the riff filled land” with the cannabis caravan, complete with “all the shag carpet”, “all the wood paneling” and a jam room that likely resembles a “rumpus room” and “smells like 1976”. Find out what happens “when you’re expecting bubbles and you don’t get bubbles”, get ready to “go bumpski before the show”, and discover why getting “frontloaded” on “the most safe ‘less safe’ drug” is the only way to properly prepare when you JOIN US for a green tinted, smoke-filled trip INSIDE THE METAL with San Jose’s pioneers of stoner metal, SLEEP.

#244 - 1994 Metal and Thrash Albums
Thursday Apr 25, 2024
Thursday Apr 25, 2024
Ahhh, the joys of 1994 and the youthful days of yore. Y’know, there was a time when 1994 actually seemed relatively “recent”, like maybe a couple of decades ago, but we’re actually 30 years beyond 1994, the year when Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in his garage, Quentin Tarantino released an ultra-vulgar display of cinema with “Pulp Fiction”, Sony forever changed the gaming landscape with the PlayStation, Slayer returned with a new drummer and a newly “manscaped” look (for some), and Pantera released their most extreme album to date that went to Number 1 on Billboard and forever changed the mainstream perception of metal.
It’s time to line up the “flavor crystals” and grab yourself some “chickle & waffles” before you pick up “a waft” and get “thumb blasted” while going “full clean (with an arrow)”. Discover why “the hair of the dog” is an essential part of getting “detwanglified”, find out what “became a thing” (and who’s “a little bit jealous”) and JOIN US as we continue marching through time towards Episode 250 and the 5th anniversary of “Metal Nerdily” as we travel back in time “30 years and 30 seconds” to The Year of our Riff Lord, 1994.
