#237 SEPULTURA – ARISE Album Dive
Thursday Mar 07, 2024
Thursday Mar 07, 2024
Spring, 1991. Thrash had hit its apex as a genre and was beginning the transition into what would become “the next wave” of thrash with a sound and identify located somewhere between the thrash, groove, and death metal genres. With SEPULTURA’s 4th album, ARISE, emerging a mere 2 years after their 1989 thrash masterpiece, Beneath The Remains, the Brazilian metal shamans continued to refine and intensify the evolution of their sound, creating a veritable cocktail of extreme metal with new dimensions of heaviness, including tons of crushing riffs, creepy soft intros, and eerily dark harmonies.
It’s time to discover how “normal writing” identifies and hear what it sounds like when you take ayahuasca in the jungles of Brazil. Always remember to never “be an A word or a C word” and instead “be a blessing” because we are all struggling to cope in this new era of “middle evil”. Raise your standards and elevate yourself to something greater than leaping over a “one-inch hurdle” (like riding a bike to the mall 10 miles just to play “hide the finger” in a movie theater perhaps). Find out which song title we thought identified as “a slang term for the downstairs” and JOIN US on this journey of metal discourse as we dive into the next wave of thrash brutality that could only be identified as SEPULTURA’s ARISE.

#236 1984 – YEAR IN METAL
Thursday Feb 29, 2024
Thursday Feb 29, 2024
1984 was the year that saw the introduction of the Apple Macintosh, the launch of the Technology, Entertainment, Design conference, and the year the world learned of the terrifyingly destructive potential of A.I. courtesy of Skynet and The Terminator.
1984 is more than just the title of George Orwell’s cautionary, dystopian novel or Van Halen’s wildly successful 6th album. 1984 is the year that heavy metal began to intensify exponentially, including the continued evolution of thrash and black metal, as well as the release of “the ultimate anthem” that resulted in one of the greatest music videos in heavy metal history.
Prepare for some “great pod” and one of the most “brilliant” voicemails we’ve ever received, including our first ever “beer of the voicemail”. Discover the identify of “the BIGGEST KISS fan” (courtesy of “Blind Dog Malmsteen”), learn what W.A.S.P. actually stands for, as opposed to what we thought it meant (which is actually way funnier), grab yourself some “Scoobitaboosh” in preparation for our Animalize album dive (available exclusively on Patreon), break out your “electric twanger” and JOIN US as we journey back in time to the Year In Metal: 1984.

#235 METAL CHURCH - INSIDE THE METAL
Thursday Feb 22, 2024
Thursday Feb 22, 2024
Originally formed in the thrash metal mecca known as The Bay Area a year before Metallica was even a thing (shortly before relocating to the Tri-County, metropolitan Seattle, Washington realm), METAL CHURCH continues to bless congregations of faithful metal fans with their own unique brand of thrash infused progressive power metal which has relentlessly persisted and triumphed for more than four decades. While we acknowledge “we can’t judge entire albums” by just a sample of songs from each one, there’s no denying the consistent sonic salvation found throughout the entire METAL CHURCH discography.
Find out which riff may have influenced the mighty Slayer and discover the reason why turning on the blacklights in the Bunkerpoon bears a striking resemblance to a planetarium. Get ready for a “homework assignment” (thanks to an elusively familiar riff which earwormed us into a fit of obsessed madness), behold “the ultimate insult” for “those of you who don’t know how to count in Roman” (or do math), be sure to NOT get your burger “bunless” (because “the meat lives between the buns”) and JOIN US as we go INSIDE THE METAL with Seattle’s saints of thrash infused progressive power metal, METAL CHURCH.

#234 DEATH MATCH - Vol 2 South of Heaven vs ...And Justice For All
Thursday Feb 15, 2024
Thursday Feb 15, 2024
“And in THIS corner…”
Already knowing (going in) that our 1988 HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH was gonna be “bigger than China”, the Bunkerpoon oversight committee made the executive decision to break this “hog” of an episode into a two-part cliffhanger dangler.
At this point, we’ve covered side 1 and now we’re tackling side 2 of Metallica’s …AND JUSTICE FOR ALL and Slayer’s SOUTH OF HEAVEN. And let’s just say that since “the upstairs and downstairs no longer match” you’re gonna wanna “get you some popcorn” and brace yourselves for multiple “hockey soccer” moments because this one was a bloodbath to the end.
It’s time to reconvene in the Bunkerpoon with “Mr. Black, Mr. Dice, and Mr. Shave” as we discuss the first “frontman drummer” in metal as well as which song “should have been track 11 on Reign In Blood”. Behold “the end of Metallica thrash and the most doomy Slayer song ever” and get a “sneak peek” of what our NEXT Death Match is gonna be when you JOIN US for PART 2 of our 1988 HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH between METALLICA’s …And Justice For All and SLAYER’s South of Heaven.

#233 DEATH MATCH - Vol 1 South of Heaven vs ...And Justice For All
Thursday Feb 08, 2024
Thursday Feb 08, 2024
“In THIS corner…”
Throughout the thrash community, there’s always been a battle line drawn between the progressive, harmony laden sensibilities of METALLICA and the darker, eviler shades of SLAYER. For many of us, the two albums from these two thrash titans that are most synonymous with summertime and high school are Metallica’s …AND JUSTICE FOR ALL and Slayer’s SOUTH OF HEAVEN, two undisputed thrash classics released in the Year of our Riff Lord, 1988.
Discover why the only thing more “off-putting, irresponsible, and exhausting” than hearing your friend say: “your mom was hot” is hearing them say: “I wear a speedo and I eat mayonnaise”. Always remember that “you know it’s funny when you get tickled before you can even get it out” and find out how to look 15 years younger even if some people find it “terrifying”. Learn how gauges can add a whole new dimension to your OnlyFans “career” and why “size” does not necessarily equal “potency” when you JOIN US for the first half of this heavyweight, 1988 HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATH MATCH, featuring METALLICA’s …And Justice For All and SLAYER’s South of Heaven.

#232 STUCK MOJO Inside The Metal
Thursday Feb 01, 2024
Thursday Feb 01, 2024
Back in the early 90’s (along with hometown thrash titans Ghost Story, Akathesia, and Nihilist) one of the most unique bands to have dominated the local metal scene and trailblazed the path for rap metal before it was even a genre was Atlanta cross-over, groove metal pioneers, STUCK MOJO.
Armed with the aural onslaught of Rich Ward’s behemoth guitar sound and the “no bones about it” ferocity of Bonz’s rhymes, STUCK MOJO were definitely THE band to experience live, with one of their most memorable shows transpiring when “The Duke of Metal” and company performed inside a record store at Gwinnett Place Mall during peak business hours, resulting in a joyful noise for the fans who gathered and a case of “instant regret” for mall management who didn’t realize what they’d committed to until it was too late (“Stranger Things” indeed…).
Get ready to comprehend why hyperinflation and over-monetization have transformed “toothless & stinkless” into premium upgrade options, always be accommodating enough to say “They” if you’re unsure of how to address someone and don’t know if “They” are actually “a dude or a chick…or a group of people”. Find out why some of us are “almost too overqualified to be a bass player”, always remember that “waterboarding takes a lot out of you”, prepare a plate of “guitar pasta”, enjoy our “diet tribes”, and JOIN US (until the very end for “a taste of Doomsicle”) as we go INSIDE THE METAL, Atlanta style, with the unparalleled STUCK MOJO.

#231 BACK IN BLACK Album Dive
Thursday Jan 25, 2024
Thursday Jan 25, 2024
Eleven years before Metallica released “The Black Album”, AC/DC released “The FIRST Black Album”, BACK IN BLACK, their seventh studio album overall and their first album featuring new vocalist Brian Johnson following the tragic and untimely passing of former frontman Bon Scott.
While AC/DC always had an aggressively intense, hard rock sound throughout the 70’s on their rise to glory during the Bon era, BACK IN BLACK is arguably the first “official” heavy metal album that AC/DC ever released, a perfectly produced classic from front to back and arguably one of the few albums in heavy metal history that flows just as seamlessly from Side 2 to Side 1.
Go ahead and crack open some “wine coolers” and prepare to get primed before we “unleash the bear”. Keep an eye out for the “Metal Nerdery Mankini” at our merch store, remember that “red velvet cake” is “not the same as dipping your wick in the blood bank” and JOIN US in the Bunkerpoon as we dive into “The Black Album before The Black Album ever Black Albumed” and fully embrace one of the biggest albums in music history with AC/DC’s legendary tour de force of heavy metal perfection, BACK IN BLACK.

#230 - THRASH FAMILY TREE
Thursday Jan 18, 2024
Thursday Jan 18, 2024
When addressing the concept of the THRASH FAMILY TREE, there should be a handful of bands and musicians which immediately come to mind. This week’s docket is a reflection on the vast interconnectedness of the THRASH FAMILY TREE, consisting of The Big Five of Thrash and beyond.
Whether we’re talking about musicians snatched up by other bands, replacements for original members, or “hired guns” with the chops, credentials, and expertise brought in to make a tour or an album a reality, the branches are always intertwining and interconnecting, often with spectacular results and to the great delight of dedicated thrash fans everywhere.
If you’ve ever played a “Lee Guitar” (or even know what that is) we’d love to hear from you, because it’s time to “leave The Four Horseman behind” and prepare to weather the “Clots in the Velvet Room” with the knowledge that “if it’s good enough for Dracula it’s good enough for you (unless it’s clumpy)”. Get ready to embrace the sonic majesty of “The Burp Chronicles” and JOIN US as we begin to trace the ever growing and ever blossoming branches on the trunk of the THRASH FAMILY TREE.

#229 EXODUS STEVE “ZETRO” SOUZA ERA
Thursday Jan 11, 2024
Thursday Jan 11, 2024
As of this episode, we will have covered each and every era of every EXODUS vocalist, from Paul Baloff to STEVE “ZETRO” SOUZA to Rob Dukes (and back again) to ZETRO. As the 2nd vocalist for EXODUS, STEVE SOUZA’s voice gave the band a distinct sonic ferocity which set them apart from their “Big Five” counterparts, spewing forth some of the most brutally savage lyrical imagery in all of thrash. While we’ve already touched on a couple of ZETRO era albums in earlier episodes (which you can locate in the “sizably girthy” Metal Nerdery Archives), we thought a brief refresher might be in order before proceeding onward through the remainder of the catalog.
It’s time to find out what the best “new R.E.M. Podcast” has in store before we flip “the whole script” and get “waterboarded” after unveiling which Pink Floyd tune had the biggest influence on Jonathan Davis’s singing style. Prepare to reckon with “The TMZ of Metal”, learn which day is “the taint of the week”, discover exactly how Kirk Hammett and Metallica factor into Exodus lore, and be ready to take it “right in the face, tits, and balls, all at the same time” when you JOIN US for a look back on the STEVE “ZETRO” SOUZA ERA of EXODUS.
