  1. Episode 47: Baroness - Yellow & Green

    VOR 4 TAGEN

    Episode 47: Baroness - Yellow & Green

    We're finally back for our first proper main episode in almost a full year so of course to make up for it we're doing a double album. Yellow & Green was a pretty ambitious and risky album for Baroness to put out in 2012, straying away from their sludge metal into something a little more spacey and chilled out. The version of the vinyl I have here is one of the many many many Relapse Records represses they pumped out for this album over the years. Specifically a yellow and green merge that merged a little too much and turned into a sorta pea soup color. Standard weight on the vinyl itself and nothing too special about the packaging outside of John Baizley's ever incredible artwork. In this episode we talk about where metal culture was at the time this album came out, I wax nostalgic about picking up this album from the FYE in the mall based on packaging alone a week after release, and we discuss the concept of "Elevated dad rock" The news corner this episode is all Chappell Roan and her brutal assault of a child in a public restaurant. Someone really has to do something about this lady. Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

    The Top 20 Albums of 2025

    Ok this one might be a litttttle late but better late than never right?! That's right your eyes don't deceive you, you are seeing a brand new episode of MBFRC after nearly a year and what better way to come back than counting down our individual top 10 albums of last year. Even if it's not very timely it just felt like the right place to start. So help us get this podcast ball rollin again by looking back at the incredible music that came out in 2025. Hosted on Ausha.

  3. Episode 45: Stone Sour - Stone Sour

    23.05.2025

    Episode 45: Stone Sour - Stone Sour

    Oh we're back and it's probably the meanest we've been to an album on the show. Stone Sour's self titled debut is an ego-driven butt rock opus designed from start to finish to make you go "hey it's the guy from Slipknot." This album exists for one reason and one reason only; to make Corey Taylor a celebrity. Corey Taylor was upset that he had very little say in the writing process for Slipknot and he was alos upset that the meteoric success of Slipknot didn't come with my real celebrity because of the anonymous nature of Slipknot at the time. To fix this he decided to reform is original bar rock band Stone Sour with the dual goal of getting his name and face out in the public while also racking up radio hits that he could then take back to Slipknot to prove that he can write a successful song. A truly bizarre album that seems more like a marketing play to jump-start Corey Taylor as a brand rather that a pure artistic expression. The vinyl pressing I have here is a Record Store day repressing with alternate album artwork and a bonus live CD (which we did not listen to for this episode). It's a 180 gram pressing that sounds about as clean as you can hope for with a standard quality gatefold jacket. I picked it up from the half-off bin at Horizon Records years ago thinking it would be fun to revisit for nostalgia reasons and see if it holds up to my non-teenage ears. My conclusion? The second album was better. In the news corner today we take aim at the various bad actors, industry insiders, and of course Sharon Osbourne all coming together to tank the career of Irish rap group' KNEECAP for the crime of opposing the Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people during their Coachella performance. All of the usual "keep politics out of music" takes are here and just like always, they're dumb as hell and only seek to stifle speech that dares to question the imperial core. It's a fun one!

  4. Episode 44: Trap Them - Seizures In Barren Praise

    16.04.2025

    Episode 44: Trap Them - Seizures In Barren Praise

    Finally. An episode that is less than 2 hours long. It helps that this week we're covering Seizures in Barren Praise by grind/crust band Trap Them. The album is only 10 tracks and 25 minutes total. Compared to the last few episodes this one just BREEZES by! It also helps that Seizures in Barren Praise by Trap Them happens to be one of my favorite albums of all time. Illegally downloading this album from some guy's blogspot page when I was 16 started a snowball effect that would alter how I listened to heavy music going forward which made this a bit of a nostalgia trip for me. We also do our best to parse through the loose plot that makes up the concept of not only this album but all of Trap Them's music up to this point. \ The vinyl I have here I believe is a second pressing, standard weight on ultra clear vinyl. It comes in a nice enough trifold jacket which shows off the album's full artwork done by Converge vocalist Jacob Bannon. The album sounds perfectly fine. Minimal surface noise but if we're being honest, any surface noise would get lost in the chaos of the album anyway. I picked this up a few years ago used from Pharmacy Records in Greenville which is, for my money, the best place in the upstate to find metal/punk/hardcore records. We're lucky enough to have a few decent record stores here in the upstate but if you're into heavy music at all, Pharmacy is the one you wanna go to. In the news corner this week we check in with our old pal Tim Lambesis and see what his old band members are saying about him. Hint: it's not good. We also check in with what's going on with Death Grips and Andy Morin to see what a new band member is saying about him. Hint: It's not good.

  5. Episode 43: Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth

    01.04.2025

    Episode 43: Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth

    This week we're talking about probably the most consequential album in Nine Inch Nails' history. The Downward Spiral was a monumental success, widely considered to be a masterpiece. The Fragile was largely panned as being too bloated and self-indulgent (even if it is their best album imo). After that Trent Reznor took a full 6 years to produce an album and it needed to be a hit. With Teeth is a sharp, focused, lean product compared to The Fragile, and because of that was a massive success spawning many of their biggest hits. If you're around our age and just a casual listener, most of the NIN songs you know are probably from this album. In the news corner this week we cover a viral tiktok of some white kids being obnoxious during a rap concert. So business as usual.

  6. Episode 42: Kendrick Lamar - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers

    26.03.2025

    Episode 42: Kendrick Lamar - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers

    Of course it's finally time for us to cover a Kendrick Lamar album and it happens to be the most divisive album of his career. Kenny came out of a 5 year hiatus following his most commercially successful album at the time, DAMN, and delivered a double album that is deeply personal and sometimes uncomfortable to listen to. We try to cover all of the various controversies surrounding this album, both fair and unfair. From accusations of transphobia to the questionable inclusion of Kodak Black. But also some of the best material of Kendrick's career to date. In the news corner this week we cover how the hardcore band Gel fell apart over money laundering and leaked nudes. Also it's a Kendrick episode so of course we had to give some updates to the ongoing Drake lawsuit. Strap in it's a long one!

    Episode 41: Revocation - Great Is Our Sin

    This week we discuss the 6th full length album from one of my favorite bands since my high school days. Revocation's Great is our Sin is a great album that somehow still manages to be somewhat underwhelming? We talk about how having a such a consistent catalog and album release schedule can actually hurt the final product even if the final product is actually very good. We also do our best to try and answer the question of what hyper specific type of extreme metal Revocation is. Too thrashy to be death metal. Too death metal to be thrash. Too riff focused to be progressive. Too groovy to be technical death metal. Who knows. Also this week in the news corner we do our best to go over the case of Oceano and the Stolen Poster Art as well as give you a sneak peak and early review of the next Clipping album which gets released March 14th but we got an advanced copy by preordering the album. That's called journalism.

    Episode 40: Top 20 Albums of 2024

    Even though it's February already we're still stuck in 2024 over here finally counting down our favorite albums of the year as well as doing our best to recap the year in music with little to no preparation. It was a year of rap beefs, country artists topping the charts, non-country artists doing country to try and top the charts, Brat Summer, Doom Metal Winter, Sad Girl Autumn, so on and so forth. We try to cover the full gammut of music as we each countdown our individual top 10 albums of the year. So I guess it's really a top 20. Who cares we're back! Hosted on Ausha.
