Metal Rewind 1982
In this new episode type, Metal Rewind, The Distortion Dads go back in time to bring you an episode chocked full of nostalgia, big hair, and of course, Metal 🤘!
We travel back to the year 1982, where we set out to prove that Metal had something to offer everyone, even before subgenres dominated the scene. Nowadays anyone can find a metal subgenre that interests them through variations in vocal stylings, lyrical content, distortion tones, accompanying instruments, tempos and more. But what about in 1982?
Were we able to find different types of Metal? Who were some of the bands that released an album that year? What types of nostalgic goodies and memories did we unbury? Come back in time with us as we answer these questions and more on Distortion Dads' Metal Rewind - 1982.
