    E107 - Korn - Korn PLUS One-Hit Wonders winners!

    Suppose we had to get round to this one at some point, eh? “Korn," released in 1994 to an unsuspecting audience, is the self-titled debut album by the American Nu-Metal band Korn (but don’t tell them they’re Nu-Metal, cause they are). This groundbreaking record is often credited with birthing the nu-metal genre, blending heavy metal with elements of hip-hop and alternative rock. The album features raw, emotionally charged lyrics that delve into themes of pain, alienation, and personal struggle, reflecting the tumultuous experiences of lead vocalist Jonathan Davis. Tracks like "Blind," "Shoots and Ladders," and "Clown" showcase the band's signature sound, characterised by heavy guitar riffs, weirdly aggressive drumming, and Davis's distinctive vocal style, which switches between haunting melodies and fierce, animalistic growls. The album's innovative approach and unfiltered honesty resonated with a generation of listeners yearning for the new thing, earning Korn a dedicated following. Labelled by more than one source as the most important change in metal music, it laid the groundwork for countless bands that followed in the nu-metal and alternative metal scenes.  We cover all tracks on the album as well as picking a few tracks from later offerings. 1994 ay? What a time….. Plus, all the votes have been cast and we run down the top 10 One Hit Wonders as decided by our boys & girls here on the pod. It’s a disgrace Babylon Zoo didn’t win tbh.   Be our mate by handing out a solid handshake and rate or review the Personal Jukebox on Spotify, iTunes and all of your podcast providers.

    E106 - Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP

    Who says we only do guitars? At long, long last this podcast gets round to the megastar rapper, songwriter, producer, record exec, actor? Ol’ Slim Shady himself, Eminem. More specifically, his 2nd big label release (yes all you Stans, I know about Infinite) The Marshall Mathers LP.  The album was released when Marshall was right up there as one of the biggest names worldwide, constantly courting and batting away controversies and was lauded by critics upon its release. It went on to sell by the bucketload to the hungry masses and was certified diamond in the U.S. but as always… Is it any good? We welcome back the Motormouth Garage OG to discuss this one in a bumper episode. Buckle in for the long ride and hold on as we traverse the tangents.      Be our mate by handing out a solid handshake and rate or review the Personal Jukebox on Spotify, iTunes and all of your podcast providers.

    E105 - Red Hot Chili Peppers - By The Way

    I mean… c’mon…. The Red Hot Chili Peppers?? Just how have this band been out there for ages peddling their wares? Every couple of years chucking out a similarly-filled, funk-infused, cheaply lyricised new album, selling buttloads of copies, filling arenas and staying (somewhat)relevant? Plus, who is an admirer and why?  With neither of us being fans Mr. Kiedis & his merry men we needed to investigate this so we decided to take a good old listen to their 2002 LP ‘By The Way’.  We also belated discuss the Oasis reunion gigs, Sex Neil being scared that the brothers Gallagher would be ‘too heavy’ for him & associated non-getting of tickets, bah! as well as plenty more.     Blow us a few kisses or hand out a solid handshake and rate or review the Personal Jukebox on Spotify, iTunes and all of your podcast providers.

    E103 - One Hit Wonders Tournament Part 1

    Who doesn’t love a One Hit Wonder? Songs that hit the charts, got stuck in the musical consciousness, were everywhere for a while and then disappeared, the artists in most cases never to be heard from again, relegated to “oh man, remember that (insert name here ) tune?  Well we love them, or at least slightly like some of them and decided to ask a few of our co-hosts to rate a selection of these single bangers from 1-20, collated the votes and present them to you in a countdown format. In this episode we cover the first selection as well as welcoming a debut contributor. Part 2 coming up next episode!   Blow us a few kisses or hand out a solid handshake and rate or review the Personal Jukebox on Spotify, iTunes and all of your podcast providers.

    E101 - Puddle Of Mudd - Come Clean

    Released slap-bang in the throes of Nu-Metal’s commercial peak, Come Clean by Puddle of Mudd lends slightly from the genre but heaps in elements of Grunge, Post-Grunge & dare say ‘Butt-Rock’ to the overall theme. Wes Scantlin and his band of merry men offer up a plate of digestible rock that was lapped up by fans at the time & had hits to boot. ‘She Hates Me’ & ‘Blurry’ were major successes both sides of the Atlantic but are pretty different to everything else on this album. How does this bad boy stack up? And is it any good? We take it in track-by-track as well as giving a somewhat belated appraisal of this year’s Download Festival.       Blow us a few kisses or hand out a solid handshake and rate or review the Personal Jukebox on Spotify, iTunes and all of your podcast providers.

    E100 - Personal Jukebox Podcast - 5 Songs You Can’t Live Without

    On this episode we decided to celebrate hitting the big 100 by letting our hair down and asking some of the previous co-hosts to pick their “5 Songs You Can’t Live Without” and it’s yielded some varying, eclectic results. Mr. Stewart Boyd, Courtney G, P.K., Lez, Little Si, Ning & Simon all offer up 5 tracks to the collective masses so expect Alice In Chains to Pete & Bas, The Exploited to The Beach Boys and The Smashing Pumpkins to Little Mix. Beware though, there is a whiff of Iron Maiden in the air.  PLUS we let you know about a new theme of episodes coming soon and countdown the 3 subjects the show has received the most emails/messages about over the last 4 years.       Blow us a few kisses or hand out a solid handshake and rate or review the Personal Jukebox on Spotify, iTunes and all of your podcast providers.
