Pod Like a Hole The Beast With Three Backs

WE'VE GOT BATS IN OUR BELFRY!!!!! Grey would be the colour if we only had a way to colour-coat episodes.  It's Goth Month here on Pod Like a Hole, so get out your choker, get your eyeliner, and pick a safeword , we are covering Siouxsie and the Banshees and it is getting DARK.  
It is Intern Eric's final pick of the season, and does he go out with a bang or a whimper?  You be the judge.  It's the 1980 record that brought Siouxsie to a new level of rock.  Listen as your boys pick apart the  ground breaking licks from John McGeouch, basslines from Steve Severin, and poundings from Budgie.  And vamping up front, is the true queen of the dungeon, Siouxsie Sioux.  Your hosts go into the history of the band, discuss at what point post-punk became goth, and how inspirational this band ended up being.  Then its a track by track review of Juju.  
It's a whole episode of pain and pleasure.  The bitter and the sweet. 
Enjoy.

Pod Like A Hole: Mastodon Part 3 - Emperor of Sand Track by Track
The hosts riff and theorize about the journey of the Wanderer as he goes toe to toe with the Sultan on Mastodon's 2017 release: Emperor of Sand.
 
This is the 3rd and final Mastodon episode in this Pod Like A Hole mini season. The first episode covered their history, the second was a discography overview, and the third is EOS.
 
Episode starts with news and recs, Mastodon talk starts about 25 minutes in.
 
While the discussion of Mastodon ends here and moves to either Stevie, WIllie, Sousixe, or Robert in the final Pod Like a Hole Podcasts - they will forever be in the lifetime rock rotation.
 
 

In what is one of my favorite talks this podcast has had, the hosts walk through the entire Mastodon discography - short of the track by track talk of Emperor of Sand and a Cold Dark Place that will be the bulk of the next episode. Starts with Call of the Mastodon, ends with Hushed and Grim.
 
How many different ways can three 40ish Dads say "wow this album is great, oh and this album is also great" ? You will find out in this episode. Please do not turn this episode into a drinking game where you take a shot every time a comment is made on a great riff, or that you can't believe the drummer can sing that well, or that Brent Hinds is a special dude. You will go blind. 
 
*Editors note: Out of the four members we do not talk enough about what Bill Kelliher does to put this band over the top. That's what he gets for being the only one who doesn't hog the microphone but make no mistake, he's an all star riffer. 
 
This is episode 2 of a 3 part Mastodon Pod Like A Hole Mini Season. 

Washing upon the beach of your shipwrecked life is another episode of Pod Like a Hole. The first of 3 episodes dedicated to the mighty Mastodon of the south.
Episode 1 (this episode) we cover the band's formation, the 4 members of this band, and the bulk of the discussion is the influences and peers that helped shape their sound. If you are a fan of ZZ Top, Thin Lizzy, Neurosis, Melvins, High on Fire, and even the Seattle scene of the 90s there is something here for you.
Episode 2 will be a gushing discussion of their discography at a macro level, and Episode 3 will be a track by tack review of Emperor of Sand at a micro level.
 
 

Well the dust is still settling from the betrayal that was our System of a Down episode, and it is positively palpable in the air.  However, this ravaged warground is the perfect location for the power of Fugazi's "The Argument".  Steve, Marc, and Eric spin this 2001 album, discuss DC Hardcore, the Dischord Records scene, the Post-Hardcore genre having a current moment,  and the history of Fugazi.  Then your hosts dive in to the track-by-track review of this genre-transcending record.  And after that experience your hosts are changed.  What were once blood stained helmets are now small beanies on their heads.  Hate in their hearts?  Now compassion.  There is only one reasonable next step here and elsewhere---ceasefire.

We had to do a Nu Metal episode.
One hosts lived and breathed it during his teens, a real Jinco Wallet Chain nerd. Another host dabbled in the scene, sometimes to just check on his friend and make sure he wasn't too far gone. A third host was drafted into the No Limit army at the time and was too busy fighting on battles on the Sun Coasts and missed the entire movement back home.
In addition to discussing Toxcity track by track you'll find discussions on Miami Vice, Fargo, Iron Maiden, The Curse, Hed PE, Slipknot, Korn, RIck Rubin, and pizza.
Spoilers: this episode has one host give his lowest ranking ever.
Recs, Current Events, general music chat, and SOAD history in the first hour. Track by Track starts at the 1 hour mark.
