    #252 AC/DC FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK - Album Dive

    #252 AC/DC FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK - Album Dive

    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

    #251 Side 2 - DEATH MATCH - MASTER OF PUPPETS vs REIGN IN BLOOD

    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

    #250 DEATH MATCH - MASTER OF PUPPETS vs REIGN IN BLOOD

    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

    #249 - NEW YORK HARDCORE

    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

    #248 SABBATH MOB RULES - Album Dive

    “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

    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.
