Metal Nerdery Podcast Metal Nerdery Podcast

It’s safe to say that 1990 represented the absolute zenith of thrash metal greatness. All you have to do is thumb through everything released that year and you’ll have irrefutable proof. Thrash was at its peak when SUICIDAL TENDENCIES unleashed their 5th studio album, LIGHTS…CAMERA…REVOLUTION! their first to feature “future Metallica bassist” Robert Trujillo and also their first album to be sonically dominated more so by pure thrash than their earlier punk based, crossover sound. 
Even with all of the other epic albums released back in 1990, THIS one has the perfect guitar tone. With crystal clear cleans, precise crunch, brutal riffing, and face melting shreddery (not to mention Mike Muir’s undeniable lyrical message), this is quite literally THE perfect thrash album, an unmatched, hall of fame, stone cold classic. It literally has “all the balls”.
We were “a little more twanglified than normal” because “we kinda went hard last night”.
It’s time to discover some of the greatest “misheard lyrics” in metal and “chop out a line of Folgers” as we do our best to “bring smiles to faces” and lift others spirits during times of trouble. Get ready for some “tingling” (down there), grab yourself a to-go order of Ron’s “Rib Lounge Riblets”, break out your “laserdisc” players and JOIN US as we dive into “the perfect thrash album” known as LIGHTS…CAMERA…REVOLUTION!

Although they formed in Ventura, California in the early 70’s just a few short years after Black Sabbath and Judas Priest, CIRITH UNGOL (which, if you know anything about J.R.R. Tolkien and The Lord of the Rings lore, translates to mean “Spider’s Cleft”) sound like a band “out of time”. Whether they’re releasing 70’s sounding albums in the 80’s or releasing 80’s sounding albums in the 90’s, it should be noted that CIRITH UNGOL are one of the first ever doom metal bands, with a sound containing a unique blend of both doom and power metal elements, as well as hints of classic Priest & Sabbath.
 
Discover the real difference between “LPs and EPs” and try to comprehend why EPs are actually “shorter” even though they sound like they’d be “longer”. Understand the reason “you’ve got to get your vasectomies early (and often)” and just know that “you’re not gonna make it better” talking about “roast beef sandwiches” unless you “pull out a pack of Arby’s sauce” and JOIN US as we go INSIDE THE METAL with the decade defying, anachronistic anomaly of doom and power metal that could only be known as CIRITH UNGOL.

With the release of their 4th album (a.k.a. one of the finest albums in thrash metal history), MEGADETH conquered new levels of greatness with their progressive thrash masterpiece RUST IN PEACE, featuring Marty Friedman on guitars and Nick Menza behind the drum kit who, along with founding members David Ellefson and Dave Mustaine, would become known as “the classic lineup” of the legendary band.
 
Jam packed with crushing riffs, majestic guitar solos, and vivid lyrical imagery, RUST IN PEACE might very well be MEGADETH’s “Master of Justice…And Puppets for All” in terms of sheer technicality and progressive thrash craftsmanship. In short, RUST IN PEACE forever altered the thrash metal genre and raised the bar in terms of sheer musicianship, arrangement, and presentation.
 
Discover the glaring difference between thrash and “heavy metal” and understand why “you gotta fluff first” in order to “build desire” and “keep up with the algorithm”. Find out why “5 hours is TRUE dedication”, why “fast and nasty” is the only way to go, and why “Florida is kind of our Australia” when you JOIN US as we dive into MEGADETH’s thrash metal magnum opus, RUST IN PEACE.

After hair metal all but destroyed heavy metal in the late 80’s and early 90’s, things were a bit grim. Grim in the same sort of way that Birmingham, England was grim in the late 60’s. Perhaps one of the silver linings to emerge out of the make-up and hairspray laden aftermath of glam was the down to earth, retro metal infused sounds emerging out of the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, specifically, the “Seattle scene” which brought us an entirely new genre of metal (aka “grunge”) that served as a desperately needed palette cleanser and helped to breathe new life into the dystopian landscape which had become the world of metal.
 
Enter Seattle, Washington’s SOUNDGARDEN, a staple of the Seattle “grunge” scene of the early 1990’s that combined the best elements of classic Zeppelin and Sabbath built on a foundation of unpredictable & untraditional riffs chock full of heavy alternate tunings, ugly chords, and screaming vocals, conjuring a heavy 70’s infused sound which is both simultaneously retro and brutally modern. 
It’s time to saddle up your “goat camel” and call the “dingo hunter” to learn more about the rich culture of “The Belgish” that goes far beyond “waffles and white beers”. Find out what used to put the “high” in high school, get ready for some “karaoke reflections” (including the best Creed impression ever) and JOIN US as we go INSIDE THE METAL with Seattle’s alternative metal mavericks, SOUNDGARDEN

Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Metal Nerdery Podcast “Bootleg Edition” series, recorded deep within the echoey underground confines of The Bunkerpoon, direct from The Bunkerpoon video feed. While we strive to be “The Black Album of Podcasts” (in terms of sheer production quality), we decided to see what it might sound like if Bob Rock produced the podcast equivalent of St. Anger (which is still Bob Rock btw…just sayin’). Think of this episode as “the raw demo” edition of Metal Nerdery Podcast before Rock & Rubin come in to transform it into the Black Album of the Reign in Blood of the St. Anger of the Death Magnetic of Metal Nerdery Podcast. If you’re blessed enough to have relaxers on hand, we feel you might enjoy the “unusual” vibe of this episode a tad more than usual.
 
IRON MAIDEN’s 2nd album (and final album with frontman Paul Di’Anno), KILLERS, is the transition album that bridged the gap between the Di’Anno era and the Dickinson era and ultimately transformed Maiden into the progressive metal powerhouse that they are today. With Side 1 full of NWOBHM riffs that are more reminiscent of “punk rock metal” and Side 2 containing all the best aspects of 70’s prog rock (assuming you’re following along on either vinyl or cassette), there are a multitude of textures, sounds, and styles on this album that would close out the Di’Anno era quite nicely, offering a glimpse of the dynamic musical expansion that would soon follow.
 
It’s time to re-think definitions and rebrand horrific offenses because “It’s never funny when it happens to you” (and also because ”it can happen to dudes, too.”).
Discover which artist represents the birth of the new genre known as “Dungeon Doom metal”, as well as an obscure Valentines’ Day conspiracy theory. Find out why you should NEVER listen to our podcast while in a Chik-Fil-A drive-thru (especially if “macaroni and cheese” is involved), behold the glaring difference between “Genghis” and GENGHIS Khan (the biggest rapper known “across the world”) and THANK YOU for taking the time to JOIN US as we dive into IRON MAIDEN: KILLERS.

Given that it was produced and released without the band’s involvement (and likely lacking the front to back awesomeness it would have otherwise possessed), WE SOLD OUR SOUL FOR ROCK ‘N’ ROLL was “technically” BLACK SABBATH’s 7th release; a greatest hits compilation covering “The First Six” albums from the legendary Ozzy Osbourne era of the band.
 
Having said that, we decided to build what WE believe woulda/coulda/shoulda been the perfect Black Sabbath compilation. And before anyone gets all twisted up and twanglified about our choices, “let it be known” that our selection criteria for this compilation was limited to songs from The First Six (some which were actually included on the original release of WSOSFRNR, including a few others we felt were essential) as well as a smattering of songs off the first two albums from the Ronnie James Dio era.
 
Get ready to find out what “sounds like 1973” as well as which song sounds like “bats flying around” and which instrumental is (relative to the songs before and after) analogous to” the white goo in the middle” of an Oreo that holds everything together. 
 
Discover which KISS “after dark” merchandise item should belong to only the most dedicated fan, fire up the “boat internet” and learn about which countries seem “continentless” and which continent has “kangaroos that can beat up crocodiles” after “15 drinks a day” when you JOIN US for a look inside our OWN perfect 7th Sabbath album: WE SOLD OUR SOULS FOR SABBATH.
